### 5/5 — My only complaint is that it’s not endless

*2024-04-29*

I absolutely love this little puzzle game. A simple concept that required a surprising amount of brain power. I just finished all of the levels in about four days and wish there were an infinite number. So addicting and enjoyable.

### 5/5 — DINGUERIE

*2024-04-27, version 1.0.5*

j’adore les jeux comme ça de bas (et j’y suis plutôt bon) mais là c’est vraiment insane, je pensais que j’allais finir le jeu en 3h mais pas du tout : il faut réfléchir et les niveaux sont pas du tout si simples qu’ils en ont l’air 

5/5 rien à dire ++

### 5/5 — Muito simples e desafiador ao mesmo tempo

*2024-04-17, version 1.0.5*

Vale a pena o jogo, muito bom.

### 2/5 — Would be great, but

*2024-04-11, version 1.0.5*

As soon as I got past the tutorial there was an ad after every puzzle. 10 seconds of puzzling for every 15+ second ad. A few were skipable but most weren’t.

### 5/5 — Génial

*2024-04-05, version 1.0.5*

Un très bon jeu de puzzle gratuit. Une durée de vie de 2-4h. Parfait pour passer le temps et réfléchir 🥳❤️

### 5/5 — Excellent original puzzle

*2024-03-14, version 1.0.4*

This is an excellent game, and the world needs more games like this! Some levels are easier. Some levels are extremely difficult. When you are stuck, you have to think about the setup differently, because it is easy to fall into a rut. There are some videos of the early levels online, but after that, you are on your own! I have solved all 10 worlds, and it was really fun.

### 5/5 — Its pretty fun

*2024-03-13, version 1.0.1*

I think it’s cute

### 4/5 — Bad tutorial. Good game.

*2024-03-11, version 1.0.1*

It’s really unclear how to are supposed to play. But if your figure it out it’s good

### 4/5 — Génial mais réinitialisé

*2024-03-11, version 1.0.1*

Jeu génial, simple joli dessin, avec de vrai réflexion. J’ai beaucoup aimé jusqu’à ce que ma progression se réinitialise….

### 5/5 — Great Puzzle Game

*2024-03-07, version 1.0*

Love puzzles. Definitely worth a play.

### 5/5 — Well Crafted Game

*2024-03-07, version 1.0*

Clear, simple concept. Attractive artwork. Relaxing music. They all create an enjoyable puzzle experience.

Some ads were loud and obnoxious so I quickly paid to remove all ads and it was well worth the price to play uninterrupted.

### 5/5 — Excellent lil puzzle game + suggestion

*2024-03-04, version 1.0*

I paid for it after I had been tapping away for an hour & was totally engrossed. It was well worth it - there’s a lot of levels & the puzzles feel good/challenging. The design is clean & the UI is great. 

Suggestion one: a wipe clean button, so you don’t have to unclick on each square. 

two: it would be so cool to see the way the puzzle ends - the solution goes away so quickly that you can’t enjoy the victory. Sometimes I’m stuck on one city & the smallest block movement triggers the end of the level & I don’t see how I beat it completely. Some function to let us see beaten levels would be cool, or at least a way to see past games.

### 1/5 — nope

*2025-04-06, version 2.0*

the game is a rolling advertisement.

it takes 5 seconds to complete a level, and you're forced to watch a 30-60 second advert. it's not even a game at this point, it's one of the minigames you play inside the mobile game advertisements.

0/100 would be generous.

### 1/5 — Anúncio demais

*2024-04-22, version 1.0.5*

Jogo normal, no segundo capítulo fica desnecessariamente entupido de anuncios

### 1/5 — ayuda

*2024-04-15, version 1.0.5*

no puedo pasar del tutorial no entiendo como jugar

### 1/5 — Love it!

*2024-03-25, version 1.0.5*

Very fun and relaxing puzzle game. And… no ads! Good job! 👍 Edit: spoke too soon. There are ads. First “episode” you can play ad free. 2nd episode, after every level you get an ad. 10 second level, 30 second ad. Deleted.

### 1/5 — Good game but ADS

*2024-03-19, version 1.0.5*

It's honestly a shame this great game is ruined for me due to a 30 second unskippable ad after EVERY level, I would be fine if it were at least every other level or I got hints or SOMETHING but every single level with absolutely no incentive for me as a player is outrageous

### 1/5 — can’t finish past level 2?

*2024-02-27, version 1.0*

there’s no combination that allows you to finish the second level, straight up stops you from progressing and understanding anything

### 1/5 — It’s good game at start

*2024-02-23, version 1.0*

at the start of game no ads then shortly after every one you complete ad after ad it’s really ruining the game

### 2/5 — Amazing game, Killed by AD

*2026-01-20, version 2.1*

I’m not usually a big reviewer but will give a good rating if deserved, and I would consider changing this as well if this was improved upon

But when a puzzle takes only 30-60 seconds sometimes in the start of the game and you guys are running an ad after every single stage I’m watching ads as much as I’m playing the game. I would have actually just bought the game had you guys not tried to force my hand by shoving ads down my throat every stage when I’m only 12 stages into the game and barely even got to try it for more than 10 minutes. I’m sorry, excellent game but disappointing experience overall

### 2/5 — Cute, Boring, Unchallenging, Adware

*2024-07-07, version 1.0.5*

Cute concept, but very easy and very repetitive.  Blew through the first four levels (62 puzzles), as fast as the ads would let me, while distracted by sports on tv.  There is no game evolution and the levels never get any harder.  Boring, unchallenging.  Delete.

### 2/5 — Fun but too many ads

*2024-06-16, version 1.0.5*

Ads after every single level

### 5/5 — fun yet challenging

*2026-04-05, version 2.2*

Just the right amount of difficulty where it’s a challenge but still fun to work through

### 5/5 — Добавьте русский язык

*2025-11-12, version 2.1*

Игра хорошая, но правила игры не очень понятны из-за отсутствия русского языка

### 5/5 — One of the best puzzle games I’ve ever played

*2025-04-30, version 2.1*

I love this game. It’s so easy to get started and there’s so many puzzles. I would’ve paid double what I paid tbh. Getting close to finishing the first campaign and starting on the Empires mode and I can’t wait!!

### 5/5 — Wow

*2024-11-18, version 2.0*

Big W

### 5/5 — More Levels Please!!!

*2024-07-29, version 1.0.5*

I love puzzle games so when I saw this game had a pretty good rating I decided why not and got it. I completed the game in a day and I wish I had not. The art style is adorable and the colors are very pleasing to the eye. Each puzzle was unique and I was stumped on a few for a long time. Great game and I look forward to more!

### 5/5 — More please!

*2024-06-22, version 1.0.5*

This game is surprisingly good. The art style is perfect and so are the sound effects. Can't wait for more!

### 5/5 — rad

*2024-06-12, version 1.0.5*

this game rules

### 5/5 — Very good game

*2024-06-07, version 1.0.5*

And I know what would made it even better: level editor and ability to share your custom levels with other players

### 5/5 — Great game

*2024-05-18, version 1.0.5*

Really enjoyable puzzles!

### 5/5 — Me encanta!

*2024-05-06, version 1.0.5*

Como mejora diría que modificaseis un poco el tutorial, al principio no entendía del todo como jugar
