### 3/5 — Too many ads

*2019-03-16, version 1.2.0*

Great game but the ads have ruined the fun...short burst of play then an Ad interrupts the flow after every play. Very irritating.

### 2/5 — Rediculous!

*2016-05-14, version 1.1.3*

My version after upgrade has now turned from orbs to totally graphically challenged rectangles!!!  What the heck???!!!!

### 3/5 — Errr still getting adverts?

*2015-06-16, version 1.1.0*

This was supposed to be an advert-free promotion on AppGratis so why are the still adverts popping up?
Also, way to kill an app by advertising an update to 'close loophole for reviving' - so basically removing a trick for extending longevity in a decidedly average game, even if there are some interesting ideas, it's just not very captivating. Doubt I will ever update this now, and more likely delete this pretty soon.

### 4/5 — Good But....

*2015-06-14, version 1.1.1*

Great fun but it's hard to get the rows to move accurately.    Sensitivity of touch needs to be adjusted.     Thanks!!!

### 3/5 — Fun lil game  catchy

*2015-05-28, version 1.0.5*

Clean interface and nice UI make for pleasant play. Starts simple then gets trickier as more colours fall. Addictive and hard to beat

### 2/5 — Random scoring

*2015-05-26, version 1.0.5*

The scoring system does not make any sense and is not consistent at all.

### 2/5 — Frustrating Control Ruins It All

*2015-05-26, version 1.0.5*

Beautiful design and great concept in game play, but spawning new balls prevents moving any rows until the spawn has completed. This is extremely frustrating and ruins what could be a nice game.

### 2/5 — Privacy Statement Page Adverts???

*2015-05-25, version 1.0.5*

I have not yet played this game, but do find it strange that when trying to view the developers End Users Privacy Statement Page it has many Adverts that loop instead of allowing the end user to see what information is collected about them.

### 1/5 — Still doesn't work

*2014-10-26*

Even after the update that said the crash was fixed, the game still doesn't work. It will load but once I try to play, it freezes. It's really frustrating that I paid for the game and haven't been able to play since iOS 8.

### 1/5 — Wish I could play

*2014-10-11, version 1.0.3*

I like the game. But ever since the last update, every time I push the play button to start a game, it just closes the app. I can't play at all. This is on my iphone. The ipad still works - for now.

### 1/5 — Changing my rating

*2014-10-04, version 1.0.3*

Tons of glitches. Crashes all the time. Can't update my phone to ios8 & it doesn't work. My iPad is updated but the game freezes every time I play. If you make people pay for a game make sure you know what you are doing.

### 2/5 — Was a great game ...

*2014-10-01, version 1.0.3*

... till I moved onto OS 8.2.  Now the game just jams all the time.  Shame!

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2025-10-31, version 1.4.1*

This game has changed so much and is almost unplayable. Time to delete after several years of playing.

### 1/5 — Not in love anymore

*2019-01-28, version 1.2.0*

I just upgraded colorbs, and I am really disappointed in the changes. I have been playing this game for at least a year constantly. It seems to me there isn’t as much height in the game as there sedbto be, or maybe the orbs are just bgger.  Either way it is nearly impossible to get very far into the game which of course I’m accustomed to doing.  Boring!

I completely agree!  Word for word.  VERY DISAPPOINTING!

### 1/5 — Orbs are one blocks with “X”

*2018-02-02, version 1.2.0*

And I cannot get rid of the “X” - I deleted the game and we downloaded it and the “X” are still there. I used to love this game...will contact the developer.

### 1/5 — Why change a good app?

*2018-02-01, version 1.2.0*

Why oh why does this have to happen.  If a game is good leave it alone.  This latest update is not move pleasing to the eye, it now has more columns and the orbs are smaller plus an irritating colour thing going on in the background.

### 1/5 — Too many ads!  Could have been great!

*2015-07-19, version 1.1.2*

Way way too many ads.  It's a great game, but doesn't offer a way to remove the ads.

Would like a bit longer gameplay.  Seemed to be ok until an update ruined it.

This game could be so great! It's got a nice simple, relaxing play (no timer, yay!!!).  Such a nice polished game, but then they ruin it with ads.  I'd love to pay to remove them.

### 1/5 — Beware!!!!

*2015-06-14, version 1.1.1*

Do not update!!! I updated and now I get frequent ads. If I'm not mistaken, this was an app that I paid for. I will never purchase anything from this company again. Terrible ethics....

### 1/5 — Paid and now has ads between games!

*2015-06-08, version 1.1.0*

Was happy to pay for this and thought £1.49 was a good price for a good game that I enjoyed playing but with the latest update I now get ads between games and the offer to continue on a level if I watch a video both of which I have to actively dismiss.. Thought the point of paying was that there were no ads.. Will be deleting, quite shameless to introduce ads suddenly with an update after charging. Not happy.

### 1/5 — Update Ruined This!

*2015-06-07, version 1.1.0*

This game was previously my favorite phone game. Minimalist, beautiful, and quite fun/calming. Now, it's ruined with ads and the authors "recalibration" makes the game almost impossible to play.

### 1/5 — The update ruined this game :-(

*2015-06-05, version 1.1.0*

This was my favorite game on my phone. They intentionally made it significantly harder to show ads which now appear after every loss. My high score was nearly 900,000, now I can't get past 40,000; so I now lose much more often therefore increasing their ad views. It's a real shame.

### 1/5 — Why!!!

*2015-06-04, version 1.1.0*

What was once my new favorite game, is now getting deleted due to the idiotic update where ads pop up not only after every game, but one popped up in the MIDDLE of one and wiped it out and started a new one fresh!!! FAIL.

### 5/5 — Great game. Needs paid ad free version.

*2022-08-04, version 1.4.0*

Love the game. Love it! Need paid ad free option. Happy to pay! Want to zone out to music and not be interrupted by ads. Game is super addictive and very calming. Awesome game!

### 5/5 — Great time waster 👍

*2017-04-11, version 1.1.6*

Game previously had issues, however, the developer has resolved these issues and the game seems to be working flawlessly again. Easily one of my favorite ways to waste time.

### 5/5 — Wonderful game

*2017-04-11, version 1.1.6*

Great quick game to keep your mind occupied.

### 5/5 — Great addictive game

*2015-06-14, version 1.1.1*

Love the game...great to pass the time on airplanes...very addictive.

Would be nice if the ads came less...the chances of me buying another game from you are NOT increased with the frequency of your ads. Actually the opposite is probably true.

### 5/5 — Love it!!

*2015-05-25, version 1.0.5*

Simple, fun, colorful, entertaining, addictive. Apply strategy, or keep it light, your choice.

### 5/5 — Doesn't work with ios8 on my iPad, but does work on my iPhone

*2014-09-18, version 1.0.1*

Help

### 5/5 — Doesnt work with ios 8

*2014-09-18, version 1.0.1*

Good game. Doesnt work with ios8

### 4/5 — Good for passing time

*2018-10-09, version 1.2.0*

Simple and Good for short bursts of passing time to keep mind engaged on playing. Just gets annoying when there seems to be no logic on how obs drop 1 at a time or 6 on top of each other and you lose in a few minutes, then ad after ad for only one play continue, then start over w partial ad playing before you can continue

### 4/5 — Last update???

*2018-02-17, version 1.2.0*

This game was my absolute favorite!  
but with today’s update, the « bar » is so low that the game is now reduced to just a few seconds of play... Please FIX that!
Also, can we please pay to remove the adds?

### 4/5 — Upgrade was a downgrade!!!

*2015-12-11, version 1.1.3*

Hasn't been the same game since 9.2 upgrade. 

Can you fix?
