As an adult this is one of the longest games I’ve stuck to playing. I’m currently on level 347. If the developer can see this definitely need you to offer more coins and lower the price to purchase some of the help. Maybe lower them all by 350 because 900 being the lowest cost is outrageous. I’ve definitely put in about $49 on this game lol please lower the coin prices and make more ways to get new coins… maybe 50 daily or something!!! ### 4/5 — iPhone Dynamic Island makes game not fully compatible with iPhone *2026-07-03, version 30.2.3* iPhones Dynamic Island at the top of the screen covers upcoming holes and makes it difficult to play strategically. Dynamic Island can’t be disabled so the “solution” is to rotate the screen, but hole people doesn’t rotate to landscape. I love the game, but I’m at a disadvantage not being able to see some of the upcoming holes. ### 3/5 — Game itself is fun *2026-07-02, version 30.2.3* The game itself is fun to play, but the developers mix the levels every time they update the game. This causes the same levels to appear. Example: I finish level 250 but after a few updates I’ll see that same board at level 800 and 1280. I’ve plaid the same board at three different levels. I’m being there’s other games similar enough to this one. ### 2/5 — Doesn't work *2026-06-27, version 30.2.3* The mini games don't work. You will never, ever ever ever beat the side games unless you spend money. Even then I don't think it'll work. I tried to talk to talk to gamer support through the games settings and they didn't help me at all and then when I tried to send more proof and all of a sudden my attachments were over 25gb when they were 20-28 s videos. ### 3/5 — Update *2026-06-26, version 30.2.3* I would give 5 stars because I love this game, however, with this update the portal pass isn’t working. I had four days left in the last one with the max coins saved up, which was 5,000. I open the app this morning and it says there’s a new portal pass. Where are all my coins that were saved up?? Then I bought the new portal pass, and it won’t let me claim the first tier?!?! Please fix this!! If I’m spending my money on this app, I want the rewards that come with spending money in the app!! ### 2/5 — Too many mini games *2026-06-09, version 30.1.1* Fun game but opening up the game is annoying clicking through 5-6 mini games and notifications. Can’t even play w out them trying to win a match game, then climb some ladder thing and claim prizes, and so on and so on. ### 3/5 — Help sucks *2026-04-23, version 28.1.0* The game is great until you get stuck on levels due to bugs. Has happened to me a few times and the support is just an automated system that is useless. End up just waiting for them to update the game and suddenly levels are doable again. ### 3/5 — Hole people *2026-04-19, version 27.0.1* Hole people is a good game but if you get stuck it’s impossible to move on without spending money, which I am not prepared to do. I will have to delete the game because it’s really frustrating ### 2/5 — Okay till the adds come *2026-04-18, version 27.0.1* You get all the way to level 99 then the ads come on each level so frustrating I’m not paying to remove them so just deleted the game… ### 1/5 — Can't progress past level 44 unless I buy stuff *2026-04-13, version 26.0.1* Any game that expects you to buy stuff just to proceed fails to appreciate today's economy. There are better options out there. ### 1/5 — Bad *2026-04-09, version 26.0.1* Adding a timer has made me hate this game. Literally no reason to have added one when it never had it to start with. ### 1/5 — Most Recent Update *2026-04-07, version 26.0.1* I have been playing this game for quite some time now , and I have been a huge fan of it! However, the most recent update has completely ruined the look and feel of the game 😔it looks like the scam ads that keep popping up mimicking this game. I’m still playing but this update is not it. 💔 ### 1/5 — level 147 can’t be complete *2026-04-06* guys, i reach the 147 level and just it can’t be solved. A different obstacle appeared (a two colored bomb with a number in its center) and no matter what I try I just can’t understand how to solve this level. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback!

Level 195 defeated me for over a week so I am deleting *2026-03-22, version 24.1.3* I will be deleting this game it starts needing real money to pass the levels and there customer service is no help just generic answer about beating the levels while saying you don’t need real money but it’s a lie I been stuck on this level a few weeks and I can’t figure it out I will have to delete this one ### 2/5 — I did like this game. *2026-03-22, version 24.1.3* I have tried 5 times to but the 1000 coin pack to survive a round. The app accepts the payment but does not give me the coins and shows the loading circle continuously. It never loads or give you the coins during game play OR when you exit and reload to start over. I liked the game until it started stealing my money. Do not download if you buy extra credits of any kind. ### 3/5 — Timer *2026-03-20, version 24.1.3* I love this game but am losing interest because of the timer. I was told people like it but what about those who don’t? There should be an OPTION to play with or without the timer. I’ll give it a little longer then I may consider deleting this game 😕 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time *2026-09-08, version 31.1.2* The level is glitched on 471. I’ve wasted 1200 coins trying to resolve the issue myself because the chat support still has yet to get back to me. The game won’t let me click on the pink people towards the end so I can’t complete the level no matter what I try to do. Also, they re-use the same levels as time passes. I’ve done the same one at least 4x now and I’m around level 1100+. ### 1/5 — Constant Pop Ups *2026-08-02, version 31.0.1* Fun game, but there are constant pop-ups of mini games within the app- not even ads. You cannot skip the instructions and beginning level of the mini games. Too annoying for the actual game to be worth it. ### 1/5 — It was ok at first *2026-05-31, version 30.0.1* Got to level 203 and it’s impossible to pass without getting a purchase. I was having fun at first now I’m about to delete the game smh. I’ve played it every possible way and it’s literally impossible 🤷🏾‍♀️ ### 1/5 — Game Ruined *2026-05-09, version 28.3.1* Whoever thought adding a timer to this game was a good idea clearly did not understand the appeal of this game. Being able to take my time analyzing the board as I made each move was a major reason why I enjoyed this game. Adding a timer (and a punishing one at that!) forced me to make rushed decision that resulted in game overs. And since I encountered the first timed level, each level after that has had a timer of little over 1 minute. What used to be a game I could use to relax and unwind has become a stressful, unenjoyable race against the clock, effectively ruining the game. Will be promptly deleting it. ### 1/5 — Schön am Anfang, jetzt nur noch enttäuscht. *2026-05-08* Ich habe das Spiel so gerne gespielt auch wenn ich mir häufig Hilfe von YouTube holen musste um weiter zu kommen. Jetzt hänge ich seit Wochen im Level 407 fest. Und dank dem 🤬Update komme ich auch mit YouTube nicht weiter, weil irgendetwas anders ist. Die Spielfläche ist identisch und trotzdem geht es nicht. Warum? Wenn es wenigstens die Möglichkeit gäbe über Werbung sich Hilfe zu holen, wie in anderen Apps. Aber nichts. Pech gehabt. Du wirst das Spiel nie wieder spielen können. Dann kann ich es ja löschen. Früher hätte ich vier Sterne gegeben. Jetzt gibt es einen, weil ich bis dahin Spaß hatte. **Developer response:** Danke für Ihr Feedback!

Wir warten auf Ihre Nachricht! ### 1/5 — Ok game, but support sucks!! *2026-05-01, version 28.1.1* The game starts out ok. Nice and simple and gradually gets more difficult. Once you hit a certain level I starts getting ridiculously hard to complete each level. Then they add in even more things to make you have to use coins or watch ads to keep playing. After reaching a certain level when you complete a level the next level they throw what could be considered an assist if you had the option of when and where to use it but you don’t. They place the power up on the board or in the landing area depending on the level and it is I’ll randomly drop the people that you select and throw them into the holes which in theory could be considered a help but in reality it throws your counts off for the next selection which can cause you to fail the level thereby wasting a life. Then they decide to also addd in a timer as if the game wasn’t already difficult enough. Also, if you try to go to their website to look up walkthrough videos to try and get through a difficult level good luck because they randomly change the level numbers when they do an update. Their tip for finding the correct level for a tutorial/walkthrough look through 1400 little images until you find the one that matches your current level. This game used to be fun and relaxing. now it’s just annoying and tedious. Uninstalling and finding something else. ### 1/5 — Poor *2026-04-30, version 28.1.0* Is so hard it keeps lagging and is so so poor ### 1/5 — Please remove timer *2026-04-23, version 28.1.0* Oh my gosh. I loved this game. It was just the right amount of challenging, but once you get to level 700 they put a timer! I absolutely cannot stand timers. This completely ruined the game. Please please please remove timer. It’s not needed. Thank you. ### 1/5 — Timer ruined it *2026-04-21, version 27.0.1* I’ve played several games and I know timers can be a fun challenge on SOME levels but every single level for the last 30 or so have been timed with no end in sight. It’s incredibly frustrating and it makes me so longer want to play this game. Why are there only timed levels now? ### 1/5 — BEWARE! Double Bills for coin purchases! *2026-04-17, version 27.0.1* BEWARE! Double Bills for coin purchases! When trend of double billing on multiple occasions was reported - refund denied! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Уровень 897 ошибка *2026-06-19* На 897 уровня глюк. Желтая воронка с замком, ключ от нее на розово-оранжевой, но когда я задействую оранжевую, ключ на желтой не срабатывает, она все еще заблокирована. ### 5/5 — Great Game *2026-06-14, version 30.1.2* I love this game but it makes my phone hot!! So I can only play it in stages. ### 5/5 — Walkthrough *2026-05-23, version 29.1.0* I can’t find a level guide for level 1319. ### 5/5 — Simple & Relaxing *2026-03-12, version 24.1.2* This Game doesnt stress the mind with Complexity and is Simple & Very Relaxing to enjoy ### 5/5 — It good game *2026-03-06, version 24.1.1* The best game ever ### 5/5 — Six stars ad no ads REQUIRED! *2026-03-06, version 24.1.1* This game is interesting and requires cognitive processing. I often need to redo a game because I ran out of room. So, in that way, it’s challenging. This game gets extra points from me because I can play without watching ads. I’m offered the opportunity to watch ads between games, to increase my points if I want, but not required. ### 5/5 — H ihr *2026-02-22, version 24.0.1* Das tun ### 5/5 — たまに一発で解ける *2026-01-30* カウシェの水欲しさに90日間のリミットで遊んでみた。 最初はよくわからずで日本語表記もなく余り興味が沸かずゲーム内のコインも貯めずに遊んでいました。 しかしだんだんとやり方が見えてきてコインが重要になってきた頃にはハマっていました。 カウシェの90日間のリミットを終えてもやり続けたいと思います。 今までに無い面白さがあります。なかなか解けない時はしんどくて３〜4日費やす時もありますが、解けた時の快感はとてもやりがいがあります。 １日目からやっていればもっとレベルアップ出来ていたのに残念です。 最後に、日本語表記があれば良かったですね。 ### 5/5 — It charges you without you making a purchase *2026-01-17, version 21.1.1* The game is fun but I’ve been charged more than twice for things I didn’t purchase ### 5/5 — Finish installing all apps to receive all payments *2026-01-02, version 21.1.0* Finish installing all apps to receive all payments --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
