### 4/5 — Lock

*2026-03-24*

Been using the app for years now. All of a sudden it now locks after each game. Can’t do anything but leave the game and come back later. Please fix

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your updated review. We apologize for the inconvenience. The behavior of the ad that blocks the screen is not typical. But is the issue still relevant for you now? If yes, please report this problem to us via in-app support (Settings – Support). We'll help! Thanks, Support Team.

### 2/5 — Lock

*2025-10-25*

Twice now one of the same ad has locked the game! Same ad comes up and locks the game again father I restarted my iPad! 
WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? MY GUESS IS YOU NEVER VET THIS STUPID ADS YOU SELL YOURSELF TOO.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your review. We apologize for the inconvenience. The behavior of the ad that blocks the screen is not typical. Please report this problematic ad via in-app support (Settings – Support). We'll detect it and block from showing. Thanks, Support Team.

### 1/5 — App won’t open

*2024-05-17*

This was my favorite game and now I’m gonna have to delete because the app won’t open 😞

**Developer response:** Hello, we're sorry for the inconvenience. Have you tried clearing the app's cache? If it's not helpful, please contact us at support@severex.io. Regards, Support Team.

### 1/5 — Dear developer

*2024-01-26*

I’m not one to usually give 1 star reviews, but with that being said.  If an add pops up before I’m even allowed to play your game, that’s an instant delete.  I’m so tired of this forced add trend.  I have no problem watching adds if it’s a choice, but constant pop ups before the first level is ridiculous.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for sharing your feedback. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the advertisements. We understand that excessive ads can be annoying and disrupt the gaming experience. Our team is constantly working on optimizing the ad frequency to provide a seamless gameplay flow. Thanks for your understanding, Support Team.

### 1/5 — Devs Please Be Reasonable

*2023-10-16*

I would love this app except the ads make it nearly unplayable. I understand earning revenue from ads, and I am willing to watch a reasonable amount of ads in order to play…
But the Play scale is all crooked. If on a 15 x 15 puzzle you could watch one ad for three hints and maybe an ad in between puzzles it would be a five star game. I would still watch ads when I made mistakes-but it wouldn’t be the punishment that it is now that makes the game not fun. Also many of the ads play and then go back to that “would you want to watch an ad” screen and doesn’t allow you to play the game unless you wath another 30 second ad -it’s TOO Frustrating -which is not what I’m looking for when I’m playing a game. Three hints per ad would still be very challenging to play the game. One hint per ad is just punishment and not worth it at all. If you want revenue then make the game playable so I can tell all my friends and everyone will watch your ads willingly- instead of making a system that is so offputting that we can’t even enjoy the brilliance of your app. 
Please consider this review a kindness as you may not realize how frustratingly unplayable it can be if you have to stop for 30 seconds to a minute every few minutes that you make a mistake. It makes your pleasurable game not fun at all. Thank you and I’m hoping for a change in the game rather than a change of games.

**Developer response:** Hello! We're truly sorry to see that you can't fully enjoy our app. We do apologise for the ads in the game. Please kindly note that we need ads to develop the app, support and make the game available to everyone further longer. Unfortunately, we can't totally control their number but we're currently working on ways to minimize their impact. Thanks for your understanding, Support Team.

### 4/5 — Love it but have to reinstall occasionally

*2021-12-09*

I love this logic game!  The only bad thing is that occasionally I have to delete the app and reinstall it. It starts freezing and crashing. I don’t know why updates don’t come through automatically.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for rating our app and sharing your concern with us as well! We deeply apologize for this problem with freezing. Could you please let us know more on the issue? Please launch the app - tap Settings button in the upper right corner - tap Contact Us - Start a conversation. Please let us know since when has the issue started as well. Is reinstalling the app helpful with the freezing? Best regards, Support Team.

### 2/5 — Slider

*2021-11-30*

About 90% to 95% of the time my “ mistakes” are simply the result of the slider which switches from choosing to mark x on a blank square as opposed to filling it in not sliding and engaging my correct choice.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for letting us know about such an issue in the app. Please excuse us for the inconveniences in the game. We've forwarded your message to our team of developers for further consideration. Could you please clarify - was the slider like this from the start or something happened after? We'd be grateful to receive your reply at support@severex.io. Thank you in advance!

### 5/5 — Love the game but please add more levels!!!

*2021-08-02*

I’ve completed all levels, so all i have is the daily challenges and occasional events, please add more packs!!

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you very much for rating our app with 5 stars and letting us know your impression in the game! Your appreciation and praise really mean a lot to us. 😊 We will definitely let our team know that you're eager to complete more of our challenging levels. 😉 So please stay tuned and keep playing with us!

### 2/5 — Very tiny, no landscape. $7.99???

*2021-02-05*

I can’t figure out how to enlarge. Obviously I’m not going to pay when I can’t even see the numbers. Make a landscape conpatibiltiy!

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for rating our app and sharing your feedback with us. Please note that the app can be used absolutely for free, subscription is optional. You can also zoom in and out by pinch (to use pinch-to-zoom, touch two fingers on the touch screen, and move them apart to zoom in, or together to zoom out). Please feel free to contact us at support@severex.io if necessary. Thanks!

### 1/5 — Bitte ein Update

*2021-02-04*

Seit dem letzten Update kam ich kein neues Spiel starten und somit auch nicht spielen. Bitte behebt dieses Problem

**Developer response:** Hallo, danke für das Feedback! Könnten Sie bitte bestätigen - ist das Problem für Sie jetzt noch aktuell? Wenn ja, teilen Sie uns dies bitte unter support@severex.io mit. Danke im Voraus!
