### 2/5 — Enhance interstitial

*2025-01-23, version 2.5.2*

I’d give it more stars, except for the constant indecipherable messages.

What does enhance interstitial  mean?
Why does that message keep appearing?
When will my app be enhanced?

### 3/5 — Fun game

*2023-10-28, version 2.5.1*

Fun game, but I’m really tired of your ads redirecting me to the App Store. You shouldn’t like them sending me from your game to another one either.

### 4/5 — Good game for passing time.

*2022-08-20, version 2.5.1*

Beware: Now one of the ads tries to convince you your iPhone Storage is full. This is very poor and unacceptable. Do Not fall for this!

### 4/5 — Ads

*2021-09-21, version 2.5.1*

Starts out with ad every two or three games but then steps up to one ad per game. Not good

### 3/5 — It’s okay, but...

*2020-11-14, version 2.5.1*

This game is okay, but I wish there were more ways to gain more power ups!

### 3/5 — Ad exhausting Halloween swipe.

*2020-10-16, version 2.5.1*

It’s a fun game but all the ads have to go!  One every 5 games forced on you would be acceptable but after each level ....absolutely aggravating!

### 3/5 — Graphics too small

*2020-09-03, version 2.5*

I like the Halloween Swipe game, but the graphics are too small.

### 5/5 — The THE SPOOKS!

*2020-05-11, version 2.4.2*

I wait every Halloween for these games Not sure why it's here now? No probs playing this game, I Love this game!

### 5/5 — Algebraic Maniac

*2019-11-26, version 2.4.1*

I enjoy this game, plenty of variation. I seem to have run out of levels. More please. It seems identical to Kango Islands which I also enjoy, so more levels before I run out there as well!
I object to level 336 it is IDENTICAL to an earlier level which took me ages to crack. I refuse to complete the same level again so it is goodbye Halloween Swipe.
Level 491, same as 336, I can't believe this level has appeared for the third time. Where is your imagination?

### 5/5 — I am addicted to this game

*2019-11-07, version 2.4.1*

Love it

### 5/5 — Christmas Sweeper 3 Halloween

*2019-10-30, version 2.4*

Fun. Game that keeps you thinking especially when not understanding the task you are taking on like remove all the weeds?

### 3/5 — Halloween swipe and KangoIsland

*2019-10-28*

Loved both of these, bu both have froze on me and I’ve had to reload. I was on 217 with HS and now it’s all over again. Pains me. I quit playing KangoIslands I was so addicted to have to start over. That’s my only complaint otherwise, I’ve totally enjoyed both with the challenges.

### 5/5 — Help

*2019-10-25*

I’ve been playing this game for quite a while with no problems. I’ve had a lot of fun with it however, for the last week, when I try to open the game my screen goes black and nothing happens. This is the only game I’m having problems with. Any suggestions?  I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling but no luck. Thank you

### 2/5 — Daily Challenge is like gambling ....Lose more than rewards give.

*2019-10-20, version 2.4*

Puzzle gets pumpkins colors mixed up so it is almost impossible to get thru the daily challenge without losing more than you would ever get in return. Lose ~ Lose situation. Don’t waste your time

### 3/5 — Power ups

*2019-10-18, version 2.4*

I can't move the power ups that you are supposed to be able to move either vertical or horizontal

### 1/5 — It was really fun for a while

*2024-11-29*

I was really having fun with this game until you get to the higher levels.  Yes, the higher levels are supposed to be harder, but not impossible!  If you don’t run out of turns, then you run out of possible moves to make.  You will have plenty of turns left but no 3 in a line to make.  So all you can do is start another game.  I’ve been stuck on this one level because of this and it has taken away all the fun out of it and just gets aggravating. No more for me.  I’m done.

### 1/5 — Boooooring

*2024-08-28, version 2.5.1*

I’d rather watch someone fart in my face,

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2020-09-05, version 2.5*

This used to be a fun game..but when you play one game and then have to watch an ad after every single game..ridulous!

### 1/5 — Loosing coins for no reason

*2019-11-04*

Why is game deducting coins when playing daily challenge? I won coins on daily spin they were added to my total, then taken away even thought I never click continue to play by paying with coins. Very frustrating have lost 175 coins for no apparent reason.  Have no intention of purchasing any coin packs when they are taken away.

**Developer response:** This has been fixed in the latest update 2.4.1. Sorry for the inconvenience!

### 1/5 — Landscape view

*2019-10-26, version 2.4*

I wish your games were in landscape view because I play on my iPad & I do not not like having to turn it because of the charge cord. The original Christmas Sweeper that I play is, but all your other ones are not. I would love to play more of them but..

### 1/5 — Rip off constantly

*2019-10-18, version 2.4*

Asking for coin, despite the number of points accumulated, you can continue on and on and level will fail anyway!     Money maker for creator, I’m sure

### 1/5 — ADS ADS ADS !!!!!

*2019-10-17, version 2.4*

I HATE ADS. Make in app purchases. The constant ads at the bottom and between screens is soooooo annoying . DELETING!!!

### 1/5 — Directions

*2019-09-25, version 2.3.5*

I don’t see any directions how to play and nothing I try works. I do other games and have no probs! 
I.

### 1/5 — Review

*2019-09-23, version 2.3.5*

Ads are way too long
Ad at bottom of screen covers up helps
No rules. Can’t figure out how to eliminate pieces when not connected to main part of game. Need more instruction.

### 1/5 — Halloween swipe

*2018-10-15, version 2.3.1*

The numbers that show how many pumpkins needed on each level are too small to read. I even tried it on the office where I have overhead lightening, and I still can’t make out what’s needed.

### 5/5 — So much fun

*2023-10-01, version 2.5.1*

I love this game, especially during Halloween season.

### 5/5 — Christmas swipe

*2023-07-20, version 2.5.1*

Nice app and relaxing

### 5/5 — Love it!!!

*2022-10-09, version 2.5.1*

I go back to this old game and thoroughly enjoy it every time!!!

### 5/5 — We need new levels!

*2022-08-04, version 2.5.1*

Just about to reach level 1770!  We need moro, please!Sweet Shug

### 5/5 — Always come back

*2021-10-25*

I have been playing this game ever since I got a phone. I will occasionally move on to other games but ALWAYS come back to this one. I paid for the ad free version. If I play a game enough I dont mind paying a little bit of money basically as a thank u and to help them financially. Everyone needs to make money to pay their bills. Another reason I like this game is they don’t hound u to spend and spend and spend. I don’t mind helping the developers to make more games but when they are trying to get all of us to pay for their new Tesla well that’s when I move on and back to Halloween Swipe. If u actually got something for all that money it wouldn’t b so bad that but at the end of the day u realize u got nothing and still need to spend more to make it to the next level. The ghosts are awesome as well with the little “whooo” sound they make when they drop off the board. There needs tip b way more ghosts.

### 5/5 — This is a great game.

*2021-09-02, version 2.5.1*

I have enjoyed playing this game for many years!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2020-09-25*

This game is so relaxing!  It is always my go to game when I am stressed OR just want to have some good old fun play. No stressing to purchase.  They definitely have the player in mind, not like a lot of these other games.  Highly recommend!!

### 5/5 — Hooked

*2020-09-12, version 2.5*

Completely but enjoying it too

### 5/5 — Awesome anytime of the year!

*2020-09-04, version 2.5*

I really enjoy this game!  A game for people of any age.

### 5/5 — Way too many ads!

*2020-09-03*

I love the games this company engineers, but this one has way too many ads.
