### 2/5 — Ads!!

*2026-06-08, version 1.5.4*

Ads galore. Every! 30!Seconds! I get it. But makes the game extremely not fun!

### 2/5 — Far too basic

*2026-06-03, version 1.5.4*

This gets boring really quickly. The high number of reviews is because it prompts you for one very quickly. If you aren’t already familiar with Shikoku you might be impressed by then.

### 2/5 — Ad Pop Ups

*2026-04-10, version 1.5.4*

Literally has multiple ad pop ups mid game. I get there has to be ads but do it in between levels. Ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Because of ads

*2026-03-05, version 1.5.4*

I don’t mind ads for free games. What I mind are ads that force you to interact with the ad to move forward. This may not be in the developers control, but this is the only way I have of protesting this kind of gross capitalism.

### 1/5 — too many ads

*2026-03-01, version 1.5.4*

way too many ads, will get up to 3 ads while playing the same level. ruins the game

### 1/5 — Remove Ads is a Scam

*2026-02-26, version 1.5.4*

Too many ads to enjoy without paying to remove ads. Hope you don’t decide to do that though, because they’ll charge you for it then never remove the ads AND they still have the nerve to bring up the in app purchase to remove ads AGAIN if you try closing an ad.

### 1/5 — Do you love ads that interrupt your game?

*2026-02-24, version 1.5.4*

If you love ads, this game is for you! You cannot make it through the daily puzzle without at least 3 interruptions. Have

### 1/5 — Remove Ads they said

*2026-02-24, version 1.5.4*

Don’t bother paying to remove ads, it doesn’t work. Such a scummy thing to do.

### 2/5 — Way too many ads

*2026-02-23, version 1.5.4*

The game is fine, it’s simple enough. The ads are unbearable. If you don’t pay to remove them, you won’t even be able to get through a level without watching an ad. There are better alternatives.

### 1/5 — Constant adds

*2026-02-23, version 1.5.4*

I had two adds come up in one game. 👎

### 1/5 — Worst

*2026-02-22, version 1.5.4*

If you want to watch ads this is your game complete fail man I love downloading a game and wasting my time this game is worst game I’ve ever played and I really mean that who ever developed this game is very slow and need metal help really need to call a doctor because something is really wrong with you

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2026-02-19, version 1.5.4*

Good game. Annoying to play. There is an ad every other minute

### 1/5 — 3x ads for a single key after paying for no ads

*2026-02-16, version 1.5.4*

This game is unplayable unless you pay for no ads. However, even if you pay, YOU STILL HAVE TO WATCH 3 ADS to get a single key needed to play a single pixel level. What garbage.

### 2/5 — TOO MANY ADS

*2026-02-15, version 1.5.4*

The first few levels had no ads, which pulled me in. Then after the honeymoon phase, you get SLAMMED with them. I got three in the middle of one level. I had the app for probably 15 minutes before getting annoyed and deleting it, which is a shame because I see reviews from a few years ago saying there were NO ads. Capitalism comes for us all, in the end. Shikaku is fun. This app is not.

### 2/5 — Too many adds

*2026-02-15, version 1.5.4*

Use one longer add not so many short ones in the daily puzzle

### 1/5 — Avoid

*2026-02-15, version 1.5.4*

It runs ads mid-game. Nothing worse, avoid.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-02-15, version 1.5.4*

Cannot play one game without being interrupted by ads. Sucks!!

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-02-14, version 1.5.4*

The number of ads between levels and unmutable during them makes this game incredibly unenjoyable

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2026-02-14, version 1.5.4*

Fun, but the amount of ads, and the way you dismiss is awful

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Don’t get

*2026-07-28, version 1.5.4*

There’s an add every 5 seconds, you can’t even get through one level without 3 different ads

### 1/5 — Advert heavy

*2026-07-11, version 1.5.4*

Cannot progress past lv10 unless you buy ad free version, as the same stupid ad with no exit button pops up - waste of time unless you pay to pay

### 1/5 — More ad then game

*2026-06-28, version 1.5.4*

The free version is unplayable with how many ads there are.

### 1/5 — I counted 13 adds while playing 1 single level

*2026-06-11, version 1.5.4*

I get the point of having adds however bombarding it with adds while you are playing and 13 of them.. just horrible

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-06-06, version 1.5.4*

Paid for no ads and still getting them. Want a refund.

### 1/5 — Ads actually make it unplayable

*2026-05-22, version 1.5.4*

I don’t mind ads on a free game but ads that happen in the middle of a game ever few strokes? Not only are you advertising other games that aren’t yours but you make your own game unplayable. Didn’t even keep it installed long enough to let it grow on me to contemplate buying it. You need to make ads annoying enough that I may pay to have them  gone, not so annoying I’ll delete your app in literally 5 minutes after trying it.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-05-13, version 1.5.4*

Literally horrible with how many ads it makes it unplayable

### 1/5 — Impossible if you don’t pay to remove ads

*2026-04-09, version 1.5.4*

Couldn’t even get through a single daily puzzle without getting interrupted by ads. Ruined the playing experience. The ads were so long I’d rather just uninstall!

### 1/5 — Soooo many. Ads

*2026-04-02, version 1.5.4*

I’m all for watching an ad but not in the middle of a game. I didn’t bother finishing the daily challenge puzzle. After the 2nd ad popped up I noped on out.

### 1/5 — Annoying Ads

*2026-03-13, version 1.5.4*

Too many ads I can’t make a move without having another dumb ad show up

### 5/5 — Pattern Fiend

*2026-05-29, version 1.5.4*

This game will cause you to think differently about Tetris! It’s so easy to figure out but requires mental fluidity.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-01-15, version 1.5.4*

Wow
Cool

### 5/5 — Brain strain!

*2024-12-12, version 1.5.3*

A different kind of game - about spatial awareness and keeping to regular shapes.

### 5/5 — Best review

*2024-11-25, version 1.5.3*

This game is rlly fun I  recommend playing it when ur bored

### 5/5 — Love it But…

*2024-05-08*

I’ve had this game for over a year now (I downloaded in Nov 2022) I loved the game so much, I paid for no adds the same day I got it; I play it all the time , and I’m pretty deep within the levels (currently level 2198) and I’m even pretty far into the Nightmare levels. Over the last year or so of me having the game I have collected a multitude of hints , that I normally don’t have any use for - and as such have not used them in a long while - but when I finally got stuck on a level, I went to use the hints I have and they are just not working. I closed out the app and relaunched it; I’ve rebooted my phone; I’ve even watched an add that gave me 5 more hints, just to see if I could use the freshly added ones; but nothing works. Thankfully I got past the level because I managed to figured it out; however it’s still slightly annoying that I can’t use any of my hints.

Besides the one issue tho, I love the game and I play it all the time, it’s constantly getting bug fixes so I don’t think this should be much of an issue for long

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2023-12-09*

This game is so fun. It’s my favorite I play it whenever I’m bored it makes me feel so smart and it’s easy. Not too easy that it gets boring but not too hard that you can’t understand it. It’s just perfectly in the middle I really recommend you to download it. There’s barely any ads. Only one every 4-5 games or something which is pretty nice and the ads are always super short with is amazing.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2023-08-21, version 1.4.0*

Just started this game today and I love that you have to think to get the right combo.  A couple levels have been challenging, but I eventually get it

### 5/5 — AMAZING GAME!

*2023-05-08*

I downloaded this game yesterday and have been playing since. A few things I noticed were that sometimes the board doesn't recognize when i tap the screen and from what i see i'm not the only one with this problem. Clicking the little "restart/reset" button on the top left helps a lot.  I'm currently at level 218, I definitely recommend this game if you're someone who needs to be doing something in order to pay attention/listen.

### 5/5 — Get it done guys

*2023-02-19, version 1.3.5*

Best game 2026

### 5/5 — Just love it

*2023-01-18, version 1.3.2*

Its pleasure for my mind to play with it
