### 4/5 — Still good

*2024-09-06, version 1.3.6*

Revisited this game after several years and it’s still good but I was hoping it would have been updated to show little images of what Groops have been found in the current board being played. When you reach the harder puzzles, it would be much easier to see what you’ve found so far instead of constantly choosing the same ones you’ve found before!

### 4/5 — Fab but there’s a bug!

*2021-03-05, version 1.3.6*

Absolutely love this game, really makes me think. But level 10 of “brainz needed” in the bonus 3x3 pack won’t let me past - it comes up as “0/0” and I can’t get to subsequent levels in this pack. Please fix 🥺

### 4/5 — Music?

*2019-02-19, version 1.3.6*

Rlly good and addictive game but I think it would be the tiniest bit more interesting with like some background music just a thought to get 5 stars

### 4/5 — Love it, wish there was more!

*2018-02-15, version 1.2.4*

I love the levels, not so much the timed part of the game. Wish there were more levels...
2-15-18 NEW LEVELS!!! WHOOHOO! :)

### 3/5 — Great game but crashes

*2017-02-15, version 1.2.4*

The game is simple yet complicated and very fun. Awesome for killing time. But it keeps crashing when a time attack finishes

### 4/5 — One tiny improvement away from five stars

*2016-06-20, version 1.2.4*

I love this game, but I wish it would allow me to see the winning groop before moving to the next level. 
Overall, great game - worth downloading!

### 4/5 — Great game

*2015-10-04, version 1.2.4*

I love this game,it's perfect for passing time,and even though the rules are simple you find yourself stuck on a level for ever even when the pattern is right there in front of you.

### 5/5 — love it!

*2015-10-04, version 1.2.4*

I just wish there were more puzzles.  I like the 'levels' much better than the speed matching portion.  Maybe a 'Groops2' sometime soon...?  Pretty please?   :)

### 5/5 — Thinker

*2015-09-09, version 1.2.4*

Great

### 5/5 — Very unique!

*2015-08-21, version 1.2.4*

Great game that keeps you thinking and interested.

### 5/5 — Well done.

*2015-08-08, version 1.2.4*

Fun with levels for both my kid and me.

### 5/5 — Needs More Levels!

*2015-06-29, version 1.2.4*

Needs more levels... I've finished the entire game over 50+ times.

### 5/5 — Awesome...wish there were boards

*2015-06-19, version 1.2.4*

Awesome game! Kept me occupied for days. Only wish there were more boards and levels to do

I love playing this.

### 1/5 — Meh.

*2018-02-17, version 1.3.5*

Lost interest. Found a better game To spend my time with.

### 1/5 — No more levels

*2018-02-17, version 1.3.5*

UPDATE 2/16/2018: Did it really just take you THREE years to respond to my review???  I’ve already deleted the app when I got rid of my iPhone 4 😂😂😂

I've mastered all levels and now there's nothing left to do but continuously play the timed version. UNSAT. I feel like I've reached the end of the internet here. Do I keep the app or delete it???

### 1/5 — Complicated much?

*2014-11-26, version 1.2.4*

I decided to give this a try since it was temporarily free and I like puzzle type games.  This one is just entirely too annoying complicated for my interest.  Match this, but it has to fit within the confines of the rules which don't exactly make sense.  Maybe I just don't get the rules, but even in the tutorial they seem to contradict themselves in what the rules are.  If I could, I would make the game makers pay me for the time I just wasted.

### 2/5 — Nice game hints are terrible

*2018-02-17, version 1.3.5*

Twice I've used hints and no hints are given!!! And it took 3 years for the developer to respond to comments. i have long since removed this app from my phone!!!

### 2/5 — Not for me

*2016-06-30, version 1.2.4*

I just couldn't get into this game. It was challenging but also confusing to get started.

### 2/5 — Good concept but too hard

*2015-08-03, version 1.2.4*

Easy levels is too easy but next level up is too hard.

### 2/5 — Love it...but...

*2014-11-07, version 1.2.4*

I'm seriously annoyed the *every* time I play Timed Attack...the app crashes after a minute or so. Every. Time. UGHHHHHHHHH

### 2/5 — Love it but hate the Facebook requirement for next level

*2014-10-28, version 1.2.4*

I love this app but really dislike that fact that you need a Facebook login to get access to the next level. What about all of us that don't buy into the Facebook craze? Does that mean I get nothing? They should change that requirement. If so, I will be a faithful user and even change my rating. Humm!!

### 2/5 — Groops

*2014-06-18, version 1.2.4*

I think Groops is very inconsistent. I have asked others if they agree and they do. In some situations,
its ok for color to be the only shared factor. However, in others, it must have two more similarities. I recommend you change this or you make the instructions more precise and specific.

### 3/5 — Needs endless option

*2017-03-03, version 1.2.4*

Good concept, challenging but not impossible. 
Have finished all levels and want to do-over but can't reset level scores.
Will get 5* when dev's remove swipe between levels & when has endless mode.

Really great game, it makes me calm every time I play it

### 5/5 — Need new levels

*2018-02-19, version 1.3.5*

Love this game. Make more levels!!

2018-feb 19
Level 4 on new pack brainz needed is needing fixed. Or I can’t find it even using my hints.

### 5/5 — Starts off easy than...😉 fun!

*2017-03-17, version 1.2.4*

Love this game. At first it seems almost child's play. Trust me it gets more challenging as you progress. I do recommend this game. I decided to review it again today because it still is fun and continues to challenge me.

### 5/5 — Brill

*2016-09-02, version 1.2.4*

This game is super addictive I ❤️ this

### 5/5 — Amazing!!

*2016-08-05, version 1.2.4*

Easy once you get the hang of it!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2016-08-05, version 1.2.4*

This is a fabulously simple game with endless complexity. I find that I do better on certain types of patterns than others. It's a great little mind booster.

### 5/5 — Fun brain game

*2016-02-15, version 1.2.4*

I enjoy how this game is challenging without being frustrating

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2015-11-29, version 1.2.4*

I love all of the fun levels and the way it opens your mind. The game forces you to look at things from different perspectives, perspectives you normally wouldn't think about.

### 5/5 — Great and addicting

*2015-10-14, version 1.2.4*

I usually don't like very many puzzle games, but this one is challenging and really gets you thinking! The time levels are still a pain in the a**
