### 3/5 — Expensive

*2026-09-06, version 26.08.1*

Love the app but it’s just to expensive to pay so you don’t have long ads. Wish it was more like the others and did a monthly charge.

### 3/5 — Too many Ads

*2026-09-05, version 26.08.1*

I like the game but way too many ads

### 2/5 — It was fun while it lasted

*2026-09-04, version 26.08.1*

Which was for all of two pictures.  Then it started throwing me into ads (multiple during the same picture mind) in the middle of the picture.  Not relaxing, not at ALL.  Deleting.

### 4/5 — Ads

*2026-09-04, version 26.08.1*

Love this game… it’s very relaxing but the ads are way too long.

### 2/5 — A very good concept for a game but far too many ads🫩

*2026-09-03, version 26.08.1*

I would have given this a three or four stars, and I did at the start as I was using the free trial but it’s gone down to two realising you can only do so much for free. 

It’s quite a relaxing game, this and Zen have been my top favourites when it comes to colouring. I love the animation, how everything shines so you can look at it in detail. How you’re able to learn about the different gem. I.e: what it is, birthdate,history, location, symbolism.

I used the free trial and it was amazing. 

I enjoyed how you could free hand the pictures by customising them however you want.

This game has got many perks but there’s a few cons. 
🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼

The FIRST main problem with this it’s hella expensive. £9.99 a WEEK!? it’s ridiculous. I’d understand if it was a MONTH and I think A LOT OF PPLE WILL ENJOY THAT. But a week is practically saying that you want to BLEED US DRY💀

At least have an option to do 2.99 a WEEK, 9.99 a MONTH. Therefore you’re able to choose what you’d like. 

The ADVERTS: 
It’s annoying when you’re in the zone then you’re interrupted by an advert. I’d be less annoyed if there would be ONE at the START n then ONE at the END. So then it’s not interfering with our concentration. 

It takes a while for some to concentrate, me being one of them. N when having being interrupted, it’s quite frustrating.

A COUPLE of SUGGESTIONS: 

• make the DAILY GEMS FREE.

• It would be quite cool if you ADDED other GEMS into the game as well. 

• Another groovy idea being that you’re able to PUBLISH CUSTOM CREATIONS so other players can COLOUR someone ELSES art. Adding an online prospect to it could BOOST the number of DOWLOADS ! 

• I think there should also be an option to UPLOAD a photo and turn it into a Dazzly. ( Something that Sandbox does which I quite liked )

• make pictures we’ve started to colour offline. Esp with the amount of adverts. there should be photos/ pictures you can choose from so then you’re occupied.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2026-09-03, version 26.08.1*

This app is not worth $10 a week. That is beyond ridiculous.

### 3/5 — Ads

*2026-09-01, version 26.08.1*

I love the dazzle, but so many ads breaking in when your working on your picture is frustrating

### 2/5 — eh too many annoying ads

*2026-08-31, version 26.08.1*

visually this game is pretty however all of the ads will pause everything on your device. for a game marketed for relaxing ads shouldnt do that at all. and the frequency is absurd as well ever two gems itll give you an ad. the game also expects you to pay 10$ a week to actually play their game unfortunately i will deleting a d finding a new color by number style game.

### 2/5 — Adverts too much

*2026-08-30, version 26.08.1*

I did really enjoy this app, it was different to other colour by numbers and I accept that without paying there will be adverts. However, they are too often and just makes the app completely enjoyable. It’s ridiculous if I’m honest - I had 3 unskippable (for the most part) ads when I completed a picture. Then shortly after clicking a new picture - guess what? Another long ad. If they weren’t unskippable or long I wouldn’t mind but it takes out all the enjoyment for me sadly, when you spent 80% of the time watching my ads rather than enjoying the app and sadly for that I will be uninstalling

### 3/5 — ok

*2026-08-30, version 26.07.3*

the app is ok but making us watch a 75+ second ad in order to get a single hint is too much. Deleting.

### 2/5 — Used to be good but….

*2026-08-30, version 26.07.3*

Progress doesn’t save across devices and on iPad mini all gems show up at once and have to watch more ads or get hints even with paid subscription

### 3/5 — Awesome game but…

*2026-08-30, version 26.07.3*

Like I said this is an awesome game but like most game there is usually a flaw the flaw for this app is way too much and I mean excessive ads it gets so obnoxious that I find myself loosing interest in this game they have a verity of different things you can choose to color but in the end for each picture you watch around 3 - 4 ads it’s so annoying that’s why I only rated it a three

### 2/5 — So. Many. Ads.

*2026-08-29, version 26.07.3*

The game is fun but there’s an ad break every 2 minutes if you choose not to pay the ASTRONOMICAL $40 per month price. Greedy and disappointing.

### 4/5 — love the game but too many ads and premium blocks!

*2026-08-29, version 26.07.3*

i love playing the game to relax but it feels that there is an ad after every move and 80% of the patterns are  blocked behind a subscription.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — To many ads

*2026-09-05, version 26.08.1*

I can understand watching 1 ad to colour one picture but every minute I don’t think so. 
I have been on the same picture forever, only 40% complete and have watched 5 ads. 
I get mad and just leave

### 1/5 — ADS!!!

*2026-09-04, version 26.08.1*

why do ads pop up after every single gem set is finished being put down???? there should be an option to remove ads without subscribing to anything ESPECIALLY for $10 per WEEK. insane

### 1/5 — The Cat/Clues

*2026-09-03, version 26.08.1*

Can you get rid of the cat. It pops up every two seconds and it is annoying. Every time you stop it pops up. Sure clues are important but the people need to decide when to get the clues. The game would be more relaxing if you got rid of the cat. Please get rid of the CAT, he is annoying. Every time you stop,he pops up. It us very annoying! That cat makes me NOT want to use your game !!

### 1/5 — ADS galore

*2026-09-03, version 26.08.1*

Game is a great aesthetic concept, but ads are too frequent. Too many interruptions during gameplay to be relaxing or enjoyable. I can handle ads after each level but interrupting gameplay is a hard no.

### 1/5 — In large numbers

*2026-09-03, version 26.08.1*

The numbers are too small to see.

### 1/5 — Not Free

*2026-09-03, version 26.08.1*

Misleading as a free download. You have to pay monthly after a free trial

### 1/5 — Beautiful but way overpriced

*2026-08-30, version 26.07.3*

The game is so pretty but the price is outrageous. The adds make it impossible to enjoy without paying.

### 1/5 — Virtually unplayable

*2026-08-29, version 26.07.3*

Ads pop up every few minutes, and the only way to avoid that is paying $10 a week. Not a month. A week. Hard pass.

### 1/5 — It’s just a cash grab now.

*2026-08-29, version 26.07.3*

I haven’t been plying this game for a while and when I came back everything requires a membership. Absolutely shameless.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-08-28, version 26.07.3*

It made me pay and I could not leave the picture that took membreships don’t bother downloading this app

### 5/5 — Meh

*2026-09-03, version 26.08.1*

Adds were pretty annoying like every single 10 or 20 seconds but other than that it’s a pretty fun game

*2026-09-01, version 26.08.1*

Seriously. So much easier than regular colour by number and it even works on your knowledge of crystals! It’s so fun and cool! I would 100% recommend this to ANYONE who comes across it!
I’ve never seen a colouring game THIS good! Download it now!

### 5/5 — Perfect when I have bad days

*2026-08-31, version 26.08.1*

So this game is good because it has relaxing coloring pages some of them cost money but this game is still good and relaxing (please remove all the ads)

### 5/5 — Stress free game

*2026-08-31, version 26.08.1*

### 5/5 — ❤️please read!!❤️

*2026-08-29, version 26.07.3*

this game is actually so fun and relaxing, especially if you have an apple pencil! one thing i would change is the ads. its an okay amount ig but it is kinda a lot. also if u dont get the premium version they still show you the premium ones so thats kinda annoying but anyway, great game!! 💗
