### 3/5 — Fun but ads are way too long

*2026-09-01, version 3.9.0*

A fun game, but the ads are far too long and the game doesn’t offer enough rewards or player moves.

### 3/5 — The game freezes up too often

*2026-08-31, version 3.9.0*

This game is fun, but also frustrating. I constantly watch ads to get another free move. 90% of the time, after I’ve watched several ads and I have one move left to finish the game, the app freezes up and I have to start that level all over again. Also, when this happens, I lose any of the tools that I have used on that level. I basically wasted those tools because the game froze and I had to start all over.

### 3/5 — He a away

*2026-08-30, version 3.9.0*

Too many ads - not going to pay to get rid of them getting boring

### 3/5 — Love the game, hate the ads!

*2026-08-30, version 3.9.0*

Love the game but the ads are relentless!  I also think it would be good if there was an option of hints, you could earn hint tokens to use just like you do the drill, hammer or bomb

### 4/5 — New Update with mini ad

*2026-08-29, version 3.9.0*

I paid for the no ads version. The new update shows an ad for the game itself for five seconds after each level is completed. There used to be no such ad before. So if you’re playing 10, 20, 30 or more levels at one go, it’s wasting minutes of your time. What’s the point of paying for ad-free?

### 3/5 — To many ads

*2026-08-29, version 3.9.0*

Fun game. To many ads!

### 3/5 — Fun…but…

*2026-08-29, version 3.9.0*

This is fun and challenging as far as it goes. But it’s impossible to go forward without paying for add ons.
I would rather have an ad than pay for add ons.
I’ll be deleting this app.

### 3/5 — No fun

*2026-08-28, version 3.9.0*

I use to enjoy playing Hexa Away, but since its newest update. I don’t like playing at all. I had over 370,00 coins & since it changed I’m down to hardly any. I guess it’s time to move on to a better game.  Cya

### 2/5 — Hexa away  liked playing but several times froze just ad there were only one or two moves left

*2026-08-28, version 3.9.0*

Frustrating !

### 3/5 — Ads every second

*2026-08-27, version 3.9.0*

The ads pop up before I can even make a move. I can’t even play the game. Lose the ads or lose me. To bad, because I liked the game.

### 3/5 — Level 212

*2026-08-27, version 3.9.0*

I was loving this game until I reached level 212. Tried it over and over to see if it could be done without equipment until I was on my last life. It can’t be done. I had to use every last bit of my equipment I had saved just to get through this level. Will see what the next level is like, but this has really put me off the game.

### 2/5 — Ads despite paying

*2026-08-27, version 3.9.0*

The game is ok, but repetitive and often impossible without using add ons.
But most annoying is paying to remove Ads and then bring bombarded with Ads between every level.. why??

### 3/5 — Fun but ultimately too glitchy

*2026-08-26, version 3.9.0*

It’s what you’ve heard already. A fun game in concept. But waaayyyy too many tech glitches that ruin your play. The ads are uber ridiculously long: 1 full minute each to watch a video and then the wrap up. Watching ads are necessary to win a level. Most games are impossible without paid or earned cheats. Also extremely repetitive. Hard to say it’s worth it.

### 4/5 — Gigi

*2026-08-26, version 3.9.0*

I really liked this game. It was challenging and I figured out most of the puzzles. However, I am on level 1937 and the puzzles are mostly repeats of previous puzzles. If this continues, I will quit using this app.

### 2/5 — Long Ads

*2026-08-26, version 3.9.0*

Free game has very long ads. Not an issue until you have to watch the same ad 100 times.

### 4/5 — Listens to feedback!

*2026-08-25, version 3.9.0*

Update: I’m changing my rating from 2 stars to 4. I’ve truly never seen a developer listen to feedback but this one did! With the new update there are still ads but they are MUCH shorter, some just 20 seconds. And there’s a counter at the bottom so you know how long the ad is. Thanks for listening! Much better experience!!!

Previous review:
I purchased the game for $10. However, In order to move on to the next level sometimes you need extra moves and you can either use the coins you’ve collected or watch ads. I don’t mind watching ads but these ads are sometimes 2-3 minutes long. I’ve purchased other games that require watching ads if you don’t have enough coins or options to move to the next level, but they are never more than a minute, usually 30 seconds. 

Often, in the middle of an ad it freezes and the screen goes black. Then I have to restart the game and I lose all my progress toward earning coins or other items. 

Also, if I have to go to another screen, or just leave and come back, the game restarts and I lose my progress. When the game reopens I have to play that level all over again and I lose whatever coins or other helpers I’ve used to that point.

I’ve emailed support but no one answers. 

I’m considering deleting the game it’s so frustrating.

### 3/5 — Ads are TOO LONG

*2026-08-25, version 3.9.0*

I like the game but many ads are a minute long and some won’t let you exit from the ad. Screwdom ad had my phone STUCK, it wouldn’t exit out no matter how many times i got the “x” in the corner. I also hate when you click “not interested” and that same ad appears again. The ads should be no more than 15 seconds. Because if you’re doing any of the timed races you lose so much time watching ads that you end up last place. “The Farmers Dog” keeps freezing and glitching my phone. I hit the X but I cannot get out of the ad a lot of times it just stays there it sticks and then my phone blacked out and it’s mostly with that ad.

### 1/5 — Seriously!

*2026-09-01, version 3.9.0*

I go into my app and now I’m forced to play a game I have no interest in.  Did anyone do a prod smoke test after u pushed changes into prod?  Please fix it!

### 1/5 — Ad time got better for a day then got worse

*2026-08-31, version 3.9.0*

I’m moving back to 1 star. The ads are ridiculous. Most ads start with a video and 30-ish seconds later an “X” or an arrow shows up, you press it and think, Aha! I get to play now. Nope. You get another screen with a list of features, wait for 15-30 seconds. Then an “X” or an arrow shows up, you press it and think, Aha! I get to play now. Nope. Another screen shows up, and you wait, and wait, then another arrow shows up, and nope, no game yet. This can sometimes go on for 5 different screens. As if I need 5 different screens to convince me. It really just annoys me and makes me determined to never click on an ad because they’re mostly spam anyway. So sad.

### 1/5 — This Game Sucks

*2026-08-31, version 3.9.0*

You wait days to accumulate enough points because you know they’re going to steal them all away from you by creating an impossible game that you have to use all of those points in order to get out of and then many times more often than not you’re unable to do so so you’re out of points before several days not having been able to play even one game after waiting so long to accumulate those points. Furthermore, I didn’t want to sit through three minute long ads for Kalshi and dudes on betting sites.

### 1/5 — Freezing Ads

*2026-08-28, version 3.9.0*

The developers need to do away with the ads for cleaning your phone, they constantly freeze up, resulting in 9 times out of 10 causing the player to have to reboot their phones and start over on the level, which results in loosing level progress and any progress made in special events.

Once again certain ads are causing the game to freeze. 
I am tired of having to restart my device, loosing the money I have spent,etc.
It would be nice to be put back into the most current level without losing anything. 
Almost to the point of deleting the game.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-08-27, version 3.9.0*

30 seconds to play ! 5 minutes adverts and some of them 100% scams

### 1/5 — Lies

*2026-08-27, version 3.9.0*

Lies lies always.  I curse the people who created all these fake cash apps.  80% of us are out here working full time and still cannot afford food then your apps rape what is left of our time with your fake apps and literally taping our time with ads all the time.  Why is this not illegal!!!!! I pray to God you and your children rot in hell for generations for creating these apps.!!!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2026-08-26, version 3.9.0*

This app will take your money and then wipe out your purchases. They don’t respond when you try to contact them! DO NOT USE!!!

### 1/5 — Not enough moves

*2026-08-25, version 3.9.0*

It is ok until you get to a level where there are not enough moves to complete the level, and you have to wait until you have accumulated enough free moves and or enough coins to buy moves, other then that you are left with no option but to watch ads, I have had over 7 tiles left after making no faults so it’s not like your left with just one tile = 1 ad, deleted game

### 1/5 — Too many ads and now AI

*2026-08-24, version 3.9.0*

Fun game but there are SO many ads it makes it hard to play. I opened it again today for the first time in a while to find it full of AI slop, so I’m deleting it.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

### 5/5 — Challenging Game Enjoyable

*2026-08-23, version 3.9.0*

This is a great game that keeps you motivated snd thinking.  I would like to see an update where as if on the rare occasion you have extra moves after completing the level i would like to have them transferred to the next level. I am at level 3213, so I have played a few games.

### 5/5 — Interesting

*2026-08-20, version 3.9.0*

Interesting solving skills

### 5/5 — I Paid for NO ads already

*2026-08-12, version 3.8.0*

I downloaded this game months ago. I liked it so much that I paid for no ads. Have not played it for a lil while, but now I got my IPad to play it and the game was not on my iPad anymore so I had to download it again and now it (they) want me to pay for ads again. That is unfair and rotten. I want to play but I ask want my payment credit back for NO ADS Please and thank you. I may have paid a couple dollars less I do not mind paying what I may owe, but I would like my credit for purchase. I still gave five stars because the game is great!

### 5/5 — Please fix ads that are freezing

Ads are freezing 
No way to advance
Please fix

### 5/5 — Frustrated

*2026-08-10, version 3.8.0*

Sometimes you save all your tools for a hard level and  then you use those bombs and have to watch an ad. When game resumes it has started over. What can you do to assure that doesn’t happen

### 5/5 — Addicting

*2026-08-06, version 3.8.0*

It is a good game to keep so you can use it when you are bored.

### 5/5 — Good puzzle game

*2026-08-05, version 3.8.0*

No timer, set number of permissible moves.
