### 4/5 — 👁️

*2024-12-12*

скучновато, хотелось бы больше островов

### 4/5 — Дайте обновление

*2024-10-31*

До 50 уровня домики для блошек были красивые и разнообразные…
После 50 уровня домики стали повторяться. Ничего нового и островов всего 3 штуки…
Мотивации играть после 50 уровня пропало
Дайте обновление)

### 4/5 — симпатично и скучно

*2024-09-08*

красиво нарисовано, но как игра слабовато, пока монеты накапливаются игра сводится к ожиданию или донату, игровой механики почти нет, смысл апгрейда этих блоков и выполнения заданий не понятен, симпатично и скучно, как-то так

### 3/5 — Казус

*2024-08-23*

А как начать заново, если удалил фигурку, деньги не капают, а стоимость дороже, чем есть

### 5/5 — Only one problem

*2023-11-03, version 19*

I have been playing for awhile but the gameplay gets stale and boring after level 20. You have to wait so long to get enough and it loses its fun, it feels like in completing the same repetitive task over and over.

### 3/5 — noooooo!!!!!

*2023-09-29, version 19*

i have been addicted to this game and just reached level 51. i just learned that the griddie designs reset back at 1 when you hit 51. guys please design them to 100 😔

### 5/5 — just.. hit the griddy

*2023-08-23, version 19*

i luv hittin da griddy 🥵 💦 🍆
very good 9/10, i wish there was more griddying…  ;)

### 5/5 — The bomb

*2023-07-13, version 19*

This game is one of my favorite games ever. It doesn’t bombard you with ads, it’s very easy to pick up and start playing, and is simple while keeping you busy at the same time. The animations and the designs of the Griddies are so good. Keep up the great work! Maybe add more levels though cause 100 ain’t enough for me 🥲

### 5/5 — Grampa got hit by a wheel chair

*2023-03-30, version 19*

This game saved my life.

### 3/5 — Cute and fun game, but in-app purchases stopped working

*2023-03-27, version 19*

The gameplay is simple and fun, I love the variety of characters, but when I want to buy cubes to make things move a little faster, it just says “cannot connect to store.” Bummer! It says last update was a year ago, so hopefully the game hasn’t been forgotten about by the devs.

### 4/5 — после 20 уровня уже играть неинтересно

*2023-02-19*

после 20 уровня уже играть неинтересно, так как монетки копятся слишком долго, при полном острове можно позволить купить 2-3 фигурки… теряется интерес ради этого заходить в игру ежедневно.
до этого очень нравилось приложение, и процесс, и графика, очень комфортно и красиво, звуки тоже забавные, прям супер, но, увы…

незначительный недочёт: что с рекламой? предлагает возможность удвоить количество монет за просмотр ролика, при этом ролика не было ни разу

### 4/5 — Игра вылетает

*2023-02-14*

Пофиксите игру, сегодня внезапно стала вылетать, переустановка не помогла.

### 5/5 — Awesome but...

*2022-10-31, version 19*

Very fun game, cool art, nice music, rewarding gameplay. I’ve been enjoying this game casually for ages and it only has one problem. You can get stuck with a full inventory and no ability to move, essentially ending your game with no way to restart.

Great game that just needs a little trash can button to help you out when you get stuck!

### 4/5 — Why?

*2022-10-06*

If you have a full inventory and you cant merge anything then you cant merge stuff on the island! The game is stuck and you have to restart which is a nightmare! Becauseit dosent show up in my ipad storage!

### 1/5 — Не советую

*2023-11-26*

Тупейшая игра…давно такого не встречала, вообще мозг шевелить не надо, сиди тыкай кнопки и все. Блошки производящие деньги - мощно

### 1/5 — Невозможно отменить

*2023-10-25*

Нет функции удаления со склада фигурки. Случайно заполнила склад при полном поле. теперь игра подвисла в таком положении. Монетки зарабатываются, но я не могу ничего сделать. Игра классная, простая. Не хотелось бы удалять.

### 1/5 — Not just bad

*2022-06-02, version 19*

Not just a bad “game” but also a broken one. At first I was please by the spatial puzzle twist on the classic “number go up” idle game until I realised how slow the trickle of new puzzles is and most egregiously, how the rewards for watching ads don’t trigger most of the time, slowing progress even further.

### 1/5 — рекламу пофиксите

*2021-12-17*

вы смотрите сами хоть что зарекламу вы пускаете: полик проиграл, крестик появился, на него нажимаешь а награду не дают… похоже на мошенничество

### 1/5 — Something is wrong

*2020-10-12, version 7*

When you start the game up it asks if you want to use the in game currency to get triple monies, and then when you do it, it only gives you double. Dumb

### 1/5 — Bah

*2020-10-01, version 7*

I played for a couple of days , lost interest. I deleted. It’s glitchy pairing the blocks together. 3D Tetris with different shaped boxes with a lot of waiting. The idea was okay , fun in the beginning but the the  cost of each block and wasted time in videos watching to advance is ridiculous. ✌️😷

### 1/5 — Doesn’t run on my 11 pro max

*2020-09-29, version 7*

Idk what’s happening but it ain’t working

### 1/5 — I know I’m not the greatest at Math but come on!

*2020-08-25, version 5*

Like this game, but when using gems to “Triple” the way loot it only doubles it. Just paid 3 gems for 100 trillion to turn into 300 trillion and got 200 trillion. Fix the glitch and figure out how many coins you owe me and I’ll fix your rating!

### 1/5 — 5 minutes is all it takes

*2020-06-24, version 4*

Editing my review; the game was great from the first 5 minutes to the end of the first week.

Now it’s just a marathon of watching ads or waiting for days to triple your earnings with the gems. I’m only in the 30s and I had to triple the earnings from 4 days (of a triple full island setup) to move up ONE level. Not worth the time

### 1/5 — Pornographic Ads

*2020-06-23, version 4*

This app is rated age 4+. The content is appropriate and fun. However, the ads that support the app have become increasing dirty. They started out ranging from not concerning at all to mildly suggestive. But now I’m getting ads for a sex game, with images of women straddling each other popping up immediately. The app rating doesn’t mean anything if the ads are intended for mature audiences. I will be deleting any app made by Pomelo from my and my children’s devices.

Прикольно только сделайте пожалуйста обновление где будут побольше островов и новые фигурки чтобы там можно было делать рыбок

### 5/5 — Charming and clever

*2025-10-09, version 24*

The game is really fun and is really creative in the sense of where you want to place the Griddies to make money while you’re not playing. The Griddies are also really fun and cute

### 5/5 — BEST

*2025-03-23, version 24*

This keep me playing for hours thanks

### 5/5 — Даж не зн

*2025-02-22*

Я щас на 38 уровне и уже всё открыто добавьте хоть немного островов и разнообразия, кст кто дащёль до конца?!

### 5/5 — Чел из 2014

*2024-09-29*

Игра очень залипательная зависла в ней на пару часов музыку очень атмосферное качество красивое

Игра шикарная !!!❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — ZOOWEEMAMA

*2024-09-22, version 19*

This game is so simple and fun. There are like 100 of these different creatures and I can’t wait to see what the freak is gonna happen to my islands. The designs are unique, but the gameplay has a good flow. 

Imagine a mix of 2048 and a goofy flash game tycoon. The addition of an inventory and the separate islands really expands the lifespan of the game as well! The island flea simulation takes more of an aesthetic backseat but I shan’t spoil how satisfying it is to have a bunch of full islands

### 5/5 — Имба!

*2024-09-21*

Мне когда я играю в это,то мне по кайфу

### 5/5 — Круто

*2024-09-13*

### 5/5 — New update please!

*2024-09-01, version 19*

I am begging pomelo stop working on your other games and come back to this hidden gem!!
