### 3/5 — Não abre

*2026-03-05*

Jogo fica em tela preta e não abre

### 3/5 — Okay

*2023-11-18, version 1.1.7*

It had lots of ads and the audio always glitches out and the only way to get it to turn back on was if you turned your volume up or down. Please try to fix this ASAP.

### 4/5 — Just curious

*2022-05-07, version 1.1.6*

Im at level 9000 almost but one thing that i was wondering is why the gem counter is set to 99 and anything after is 99+. Other than that i play on and off because i would be addicted if i didnt

### 3/5 — Great game, but no longer available?

*2021-08-06, version 1.1.4*

Such a great game, time killer, stress reliever, it’s really simple and fun. But it is no longer showing up in the App Store, I think it’s no longer available in the us? Please bring it back

### 3/5 — Ok game

*2021-03-17, version 1.1.4*

A little boring.

### 2/5 — Addictive but Ad-dicted

*2020-08-29, version 1.1.4*

A fun and addicting game (I’m 5,500+ levels deep), but they’ve recently begun throwing in 15/30-second ads after every single round. Being that each round only takes about 20 seconds to play, I find myself now opening the game to play one round then closing right back out, as opposed to the 5-15 rounds at a time that I used to play. 

It’s the difference between binge-watching a show episode-after-episode or (now) watching a 30-minute show that’s 19 minutes of ads. Disappointing change.

### 2/5 — Nice game, but paying to remove ads doesn’t remove all the ads

*2020-07-28, version 1.1.4*

I’ve been enjoying playing this game, so decided to pay the £2.99 to remove ads. However, this only removes the short ads in between levels — the long ads in between replays are still there. Not great value, and absolutely not clear before purchase. If the developers would like to refund my purchase I will be happy to review the actual game instead of the in-app purchase!

### 4/5 — 👌

*2020-07-13, version 1.1.4*

Me:Reached level 1000
Also me: I’ve won but at what cost?

### 3/5 — The ads, man

*2020-06-13, version 1.1.4*

It’s a great game, don’t get me wrong. I like the designs and the simplicity of the game mechanics, but the ads are ridiculous. Literally after every round there’s an ad, and regardless of me clicking the x in the top right corner, it still brings me to the internet or the App Store because of how small they make the x. It’s annoying and it makes me not want to play the game.
Cut down on the ads and I’ll give it 5 stars, but otherwise it feels like a waste of time.

### 4/5 — 게임은 재밌고

*2020-06-04*

중독성도 있는데 왜 300 레벨 넘게 깼는데 난이도의 변화라던가 맵의 모양 같은 게 거기서 거긴가욤...

### 1/5 — Why make impossible levels with useless weapons that are blocked? Forces spending of earnings. Icky.

*2026-03-08, version 1.2.3*

Read title.

### 1/5 — Still bugs

*2026-02-27, version 1.2.2*

There’s still bugs in this game! On the last “light” on EVERY level it takes several seconds for the game to go to the next level or ads. And when I watch an ad it takes several seconds (5-7) for the game to start again. The screen goes black. I’m on level 30,500 +/- so I don’t want to delete the game and reinstall it.

### 1/5 — Still problems

*2026-01-23, version 1.2.1*

There’s still bugs in this game! On the last “light” on EVERY level it takes several seconds for the game to go to the next level or ads.

### 1/5 — WHATS WRONG

*2026-01-19, version 1.2*

The game loads but then there’s nothing on the screen. I’ve closed it out and went back in several times but nothing! I don’t want to delete the game because I’m on level 30,305 or something like that.

### 1/5 — Paid version with ADS!!

*2025-03-02, version 1.1.11*

Why do we have AD’s if we paid!?!?

### 1/5 — ADS EVEN ON PAID!?!

*2023-12-18, version 1.1.7*

PAID FOR THE APP WHY IS THERE ADS?

### 1/5 — Paid for no pop ups but still getting ads

*2023-12-12, version 1.1.7*

What’s the point of offering a cost of no pop ups when you still get them after purchasing??

### 1/5 — 광고가 무슨 한판마다 있어요?

*2020-07-21, version 1.1.4*

스테이지 깰 때마다 광고를 넣으셨네? 아무리 공짜라도 ㅋㅋㅋ이건 정도를 너무 ;;

### 1/5 — 이것만 고치면 대박겜

*2020-06-20*

반복되는 그림 보석 왜 모으는지 모르겠음 무기를 도 살 수 있는것도 아니고 5보석주고 표창 더 넣었는데 보니까 그 판에서만 추가 되는거였음 무기추가 더 어렵게 반복 맵
이것만 고치면 될뜻

### 1/5 — Grossly overpriced

*2020-06-07, version 1.1.4*

Riddled with ads and pop ups, they offer you to subscribe to get rid of all the annoying stuff for $12.49 PER WEEK! For such a simple game, that is totally outrageous.  It has been set up purely as a shop front for an over priced subscription.

### 5/5 — Love the game but we need a “Read Me”!

*2026-02-08, version 1.2.1*

I’ve been playing for a lot of years, I may not play for a few days but I always come back to it.   I love the new weapons but we need some explanation of how they work.   This is the best money I’ve ever spent on a game and I would do it again in a heartbeat!

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-01-10, version 1.1.11*

### 5/5 — Love it

### 5/5 — Absolutely love the game

*2023-10-05, version 1.1.7*

Great game in every aspect new update made things better!!

### 5/5 — Five star mobile game

*2023-07-27, version 1.1.6*

I’ve had this game on my phone for years. I love the visual and the oddly satisfying feeling of smashing the neon lights. 

There ARE a TON of adds but I’ve gotten really good at quickly closing the game before the add even starts - so that I don’t have to listen to them and then immediately reopening the game -which is all set for the next level to start. So, I’m okay with it

### 5/5 — Recenz
