No se vale ### 4/5 — great game! *2020-12-19* this is an awesome game, i've almost gotten to top 500 on the leaderboard but you should fix these things: 1. when i hit the retry button, the timer goes back to 0 for 1 second then goes back to what it previously was. so i have to exit the level and enter it again for it to reset. a lot of times i try to redo levels and improve my fastest times, so it would be cool if you could fix that. 2. when i finish a level, the timer still runs while the animation plays so it adds 1 extra second to my time. 3. please update the game more! the last update was 3 years ago. these glitches really aren't that annoying but i think they should get fixed. not a bad game though. this is a really simple and easily enjoyable game. 4 stars. ### 4/5 — Thought it was Broken - but You Just Have to Tap Quickly *2018-06-22* This was a real brain teaser for me - I could feel my brain cells growing while I played it - unlike the other Reviewer PuzzleDad) here who understands it on a deeper level and explained it very well (thank you!) But since iOS 11 or maybe replacing an iPhone 6 with an iPhone 8, nothing happened! I could find no way to pay the $3.99, only the “Free” version on the AppStore... so I deleted mine (losing my solved levels but that’s ok) and reinstalled. None of the Puzzles opened: there was a quick little flash, but that’s all. THEN I did something that actually opened a puzzle. What I learned was you have to do REALLY FAST “staccato” Taps on the screen. Then it works. I was able to pay, play, and rewrite this review. ### 5/5 — It Is pretey cool fi you ask me🦄👍🏻 *2018-01-30* I like it decause it will kep you intortand win your bord and it is not so easy and not doring and it is one of my favret game's it is a mind game:name taylor cannon🦄 ### 5/5 — Ok *2017-07-09* This game is hard, but I love to play it daily. It gets my mind going!! ### 3/5 — Too many adds *2017-06-15, version 1.7* Every time I play a level an add pops up. ### 4/5 — Very nice quick puzzle *2016-11-17* Why do APP writers sell things to turn off adverts only to ruin the game with constant nags to do this on Facebook or try that game. It isn't right or fair and it shouldn't be allowed. No ads doesn't mean 'no ads but mine' it means NO ADVERTISEMENTS AT ALL. I felt it a shame to give the one star others have because it is a 5 star game. ### 5/5 — Glow free is so cool *2016-11-12* I love glow free I play every day ### 4/5 — Ads *2016-09-09, version 1.7* I love the game, but it has an obnoxious amount of ads between levels ### 5/5 — Glow free *2016-07-29* I love playing this game called glow free ### 5/5 — Very interesting *2016-07-19, version 1.7* Challenging so far too many adds. ### 2/5 — Too many ads *2016-05-12, version 1.7* It feels as if every time I complete a level an add pops up. It completely ruins the experience. Which is a shame, this is a great game. Maybe try banner ads instead of pop up trash. If this ad problem doesn't get resolved soon then I'm deleting this app. ### 5/5 — Glow free *2016-04-11, version 1.7* Esta guai y mucho mas el glow free 2 pero tiene publicidad y esto molesta ### 5/5 — Great game *2016-03-26* Dear sir/madam. Great game. Very much enjoy playing it Brendan Williams ### 5/5 — Glow *2016-03-11* Loove it! ### 4/5 — Cool *2016-02-24, version 1.7* Theres so many of them i love it ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Purchase app *2024-02-14* Is there anyway to purchase app? Don’t see anything for it. Tired of all the ads after every single game. Also I have all sound off but still have a noise that sounds off. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother! *2017-11-02* Downloaded the game a few minutes ago and it doesn’t work. I can’t play any of the levels and had to tap on one of them 10 times to get in! Waste of space on my phone ### 1/5 — Ads *2016-05-27, version 1.7* Ads ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2016-04-28* When you first start, there are only a few ads per a handful of puzzles. Which is totally fine; however, after you finish the red puzzles, they give you an ad every single time you finish a puzzle. Those puzzles take like 5-15s at most. It is extremely frustrating. I wouldn't mind watching ads if it was once and awhile, but it's too extreme. Now I will uninstall and you won't get any ad revenue from me. ### 1/5 — It's ok *2015-09-02, version 1.7* So I got this game and I went on the reviews and I'm like "oh Manet the adds are exaggeration!"but then I played and u ppl are right. Also there is like the weirdest things and this game is pretty boring ### 1/5 — Was a good game, but TOO MANY ADS *2015-05-23, version 1.7* You can't play more than 2 puzzles without the stupid game of war ad popping up. People, if I wanted boobs in my face every 10 seconds, this is not what I'd be doing!! Not to mention this ad is on EVERY game I'd like to play. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! At least get something less obnoxious. I'm deleting this game. It's unplayable with this many ads. ### 1/5 — 廣告太多 *2015-04-24, version 1.7* 一關一廣告，很煩人 ### 1/5 — What a shame ,,!!! *2015-03-07, version 1.7* What a shame they hAd to ruin this once fun game by sticking dam trailers in between every dam puzzle , I mean really !!!!!! Couldn't do it every ten puzzles ? You ought to fire whoever was the brain child of that idea, tell whoever that I said it's overkill and there a idiot ! Thanks for screwing up my once favorite app and I'm sure I'm not alone on that , renee ### 1/5 — So easy *2015-01-31, version 1.7* Make it harder please. ### 1/5 — Good game BUT……….. *2015-01-22* The games is quite good and easy to get into. However, I deleted after only a few minutes. This is the worst game when it comes to adverts. Everytime (without fail) you touch the screen, up pops an advert that can last quite a while. This puts me off playing the game. You cannot complete one game without 4+ adverts interrupting you. Come on developers reduce the adverts!!!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this game *2025-07-08, version 2.0.3* This was my fixing child hood and it still is ### 5/5 — Addictive in the best way *2024-06-03* There are a few tough ones but it’s most fun to time myself on how fast I can complete them. I appreciate that the expansion pack has sooo many more to solve. Hours of geek fun. ### 5/5 — Addictive in the best way *2024-04-21* There are a few tough ones but it’s most fun to time myself on how fast I can complete them.
