### 1/5 — Boring

*2024-03-01, version 1.4.11*

The adverts are longer than the game. Too many adverts.

### 1/5 — Stupid ads

*2024-02-13, version 1.4.10*

Why so many ads? When I want to upgrade its not so bad but then you force another one on me! And keep them under 30 seconds total, not 30 then 30 more then 10 more then 15 more. You will lose me quick.

### 1/5 — John

*2024-02-11, version 1.4.10*

Very annoying, so many adds !!!, even between each level and half level

### 1/5 — The game itself is ok (more adds than game)

*2024-02-03, version 1.4.10*

Nice game, but extremely boring, due to the amount of time being forced to watch adds.

### 2/5 — How can u enjoy

*2024-01-11, version 1.4.9*

Way to many adds . After every single round

### 3/5 — Would be better.

*2023-12-19, version 1.4.9*

The game is nice, don’t get me wrong. My biggest issue is the ads. I know, it’s a free game and that’s how it works. But an ad every car you fix, and every level you start? 
 
 I spent more time watching ads than I did playing the game. Not worth it. Deleted with and ad!!!

### 1/5 — Too many adverts

*2023-12-10, version 1.4.9*

You do a ‘rescue’ which is literally about 10 seconds then there’s m advert, advert, advert, advert, advert.. yeah you get the picture.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2023-12-04, version 1.4.9*

Too many ads! They care more about profits than our game play!

### 1/5 — Nothing but commercial’s

*2023-11-23, version 1.4.9*

It’s just too heavy in commercials to be any fun. Physics are a bit awkward

### 1/5 — Too many camercials

*2023-11-20, version 1.4.9*

Each round last 10-15 seconds followed by a 30 second commercial after each round. Gets old real quick.

### 1/5 — Far too many adverts

*2023-11-18, version 1.4.9*

Too easy and far too many adverts compared to gameplay. Deleted game

### 2/5 — Great job 👏🏼

*2023-10-31, version 1.4.9*

If you want to play..,, you might want to buy the no ad feature. Elise it is 80% ads and 20% play.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2023-09-16, version 1.4.9*

A simple game using a little bit of skill and relatively enjoyable. 

Ruined from the very start. Downloaded the app and never got any chance to view before I was hit with the first advert.

I fully understand that Apple and the App creators use adverts to get money but this is just getting ridiculous.

Even better, the first advert was for Royal Match/Kingdom who state “ No Ads”

### 1/5 — The amount of adds.

*2023-09-10, version 1.4.9*

I made it to the 5th level. I couldn’t handle the amount of adds this game had.

### 1/5 — Ads ads

*2023-08-13, version 1.4.9*

Worst game ever. Literally 10 sec of game play the 5 min of ads. Absolute waste of time and the author should be ashamed and banned from App Store

### 1/5 — Game is ok but deleted after 10 minutes as had way too many adverts

*2023-06-20, version 1.4.9*

ADVERTS ADVERTS ADVERTS ADVERTS

### 1/5 — Needs more scenarios

*2023-04-20, version 1.4.7*

This game could be fun but it’s just the same things over and over. The “special” add one come whether you want them or not.

### 1/5 — Too many ads to be playable…..

*2023-04-07, version 1.4.7*

Uselesss to even attempt. Don’t bother downloading

### 1/5 — Too many adverts

*2026-05-23, version 1.4.11*

Too many adverts make this  unplayable

### 1/5 — Coool game hella ads

*2026-04-20, version 1.4.11*

Straight to an ad after every level and you can’t just wait the ad out or click out of it you have to close the whole app

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-02-25, version 1.4.11*

This is not a game it is just ads, ads and more ads. You play one level and it takes 10 seconds then you get a 1 minute add. I strongly suggest they amend this. I appreciate they have to make money but this is just not playable.

### 1/5 — Najgorsza gra !!!

*2026-01-04, version 1.4.11*

Nie polecam. Jedna wielka reklama.
Grasz 10 sekund i reklama 2 minuty i nawet nie można reklamę pominąć.
Żenua . 
Wisisz mi tabletki na uspokojenie bo tylko się wkufiłem

### 1/5 — All adds

*2025-09-28, version 1.4.11*

Not worth playing…… add after every single play !,! And it takes longer to get thru the adds than it does to play

### 1/5 — Adds

*2025-07-17, version 1.4.11*

Stupid adds are required to move to next level

### 1/5 — Spend more time watching ads than playing

*2025-04-16, version 1.4.11*

Come on! Really, play 10 seconds for a 3 second add

### 1/5 — Too many ads

There’s an ad every 3 seconds

### 1/5 — Arnaque

*2024-05-25, version 1.4.11*

Trop de publicité / ils utilise un maximum les cookies attention !

### 1/5 — THE ADS ARE RIDICULOUS

*2024-04-02, version 1.4.11*

I’ve watched more ads than I’ve played the actual game. Such a piece of garbage.

### 4/5 — People aren’t that smart

*2023-04-05, version 1.4.7*

I see these reviews about the ads and I guess nobody’s ever heard about airplane mode? Game is fun and time consuming and supports no WiFi

### 4/5 — Good game

*2022-02-01, version 1.3*

Good game trying making less ads after each round.

### 4/5 — Ads, no more!
