### 4/5 — Really like it!

*2018-09-03, version 2.0*

This is a lot of fun! Probably better on the iPad than iPhone because of its size but really cool game!

### 4/5 — Go stoppers review

*2017-06-09, version 2.0*

Enjoyable and challenging.  Have you thought of including the suggested solution(if there is one) once the player has cleared the puzzle?

### 4/5 — Fun time

*2017-06-04, version 2.0*

Sometimes it's not as easy as you might think to clear the board but it's a good way to spend your time.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2017-04-19, version 2.0*

This a great , fun addicting app ! I enjoy trying to beat how long my train is!

### 4/5 — Very addictive

*2016-01-15, version 1.0*

Watch out!!! Once you've downloaded this app you won't stop playing!!!❤️

### 5/5 — Love it but need my own music

*2015-03-29, version 1.0*

I just got hooked on this while taking a break from my usual addiction to the author's Killer Sudoku.  I love it but don't play as much as I would since it mutes my own music.  An update would be awesome.

### 4/5 — Great game but..

*2015-02-25, version 1.0*

I just love this game but crashes when I start playing, then I have to restart it again. Please fix it, I just love playing it.

### 3/5 — Continually crashes

*2014-12-04, version 1.0*

What happened, now it crashes all the time. How disappointing!

### 4/5 — Not bad

*2014-10-20, version 1.0*

Not bad for a free game. Simple. Not super exciting. I like that you can combine colors and or shapes, that makes it a little more interesting.

### 5/5 — Super fun game!

*2013-10-17, version 1.0*

It's engaging and fun because its not mindless.  Way more interesting than most of those "eliminate strings of three or more" games. Give this one a go!!

### 4/5 — Very addicting

*2013-09-13, version 1.0*

Can't wait to beat my score. Very fun and definitely mind stimulating!

### 1/5 — Its Okay

*2020-11-14, version 2.0*

Update: Stopped working after last iphone update. Deleted and reloaded - works now. 

Fun to play and waste time. Everything good with one exception: On the multi game why does the game immediately end at the last ‘no more moves’? Why can’t the game stop and say game over and stay on the screen to at least let me use the Undo to see my choice or change it.

### 1/5 — Waste

*2015-03-27, version 1.0*

Constantly crashes

### 1/5 — Gobstoppers Buttons

*2015-03-04, version 1.0*

Please move the back and undo buttons!!  I'm tired of trying to push submit but end up pushing back or undo. How annoying!!!  I'll just stop playing the game because I'm tired of replaying the same game constant because of the setup of the buttons!!!!

### 2/5 — SHUTS DOWN

*2016-06-19, version 1.0*

In the middle of the game it shuts down and goes back to the app. Click on again and it comes back at the point it left off. Very annoying

### 2/5 — Fun but crashes constantly

*2015-05-09, version 1.0*

I liked this game but it crashes constantly. You don't lose your place but it's annoying to have to keep loading. Deleting the app! Don't download it!

### 2/5 — still getting the hang of this game, it is enjoyable.

*2013-11-23, version 1.0*

interesting

### 2/5 — Review

*2013-03-02, version 1.0*

This app looked really neat. I thought it was going to be a great fun game but it took forever to load and most you gave to upgrade to get most of the features

### 3/5 — Love the concept

*2016-09-22, version 1.0*

Unfortunately it crashes frequently.

### 3/5 — Keeps crashing

*2016-05-06, version 1.0*

I downloaded this game not even 10 minutes ago and already it's crashed 4 times. Not very impressed.

### 3/5 — Crashes on iPhone

*2015-12-01, version 1.0*

Feed up
of the game always crashing on
my iPhone

Even upgraded to the Premium version and it still crashes as you start to play game...please sort out this bug.

Otherwise a great game when it works!
