Regardless of the labeled color of the level, they have all become tedious and hard to beat. After all this time I’m seriously considering deleting it and that saddens me a little. ### 3/5 — Ok *2026-09-05, version 9.1.101* Good I love it but what I hate is every time I do the challenge it said No more Moves And I Havted Delete The App ### 2/5 — Scam *2026-09-04, version 9.1.101* This game is such a scam, not everyone on the same team have access to the team games at the same time… why???!?!? ### 4/5 — Nice game, but… *2026-09-04, version 9.1.101* I transferred this game to a newer iPad, but it gave me a new ID and started me over! I still have the game on the old one but cannot get the newer downloads! So frustrating!!! ### 1/5 — Ripping off *2026-09-04, version 9.1.101* AVOID AVOID….They make it so hard to beat levels that you have no other way than buying coins. When you don’t want to buy coins they try to entice you by offering you triple amount of moves if you spend coins…it’s getting boring. The whole card collecting game is a scam, they make you collect almost the required amount of cards to get the “grand” price but never get the last card. So many other games out there with better story lines and where you can have fun without spending loads and loads of money. ### 1/5 — Costs too much *2026-09-03, version 9.1.101* Been playing casually for years. This last year easy levels have become as hard as hard level. The creators are pushing too hard for in-game purchases. ### 3/5 — Love hate relationship *2026-09-03, version 9.1.101* I’ve played Homescapes for 7-8 years now and get back into playing it every once in a while. Coming back this time there was both new things I liked and new things I didn’t like. I really like the card collecting and the weights mini challenge. I don’t know how I feel about the newer animations. It seems more brightly colored and in your face, rather than more of a calming scene. The old animations were more satisfying to watch IMO. For example, I liked to watch the stone cat break when it was destroyed, now it just disappears. Let me get to the point, the main thing I don’t like is how unchallenging the game became. I’ve probably played through 100-200 levels over the past couple days and I have beaten them all on the first or second try. The constant power ups makes it less of a challenge; the cat’s gift is always there, and the super ball is easy to obtain. There is also so many power ups that just spawn in the game due to levels not using all the game piece colors. I don’t really have to do much and everything just blows up. I liked how the levels used to be a challenge and more central to the game. While I do like some of the extra stuff, it takes away from the original levels and restoring of the mansions. The game is now about collecting stuff for so many different things and not about beating levels to design the mansions like it used to be. ### 1/5 — Sucks *2026-09-03, version 9.1.101* Loved this game til the levels became unbeatable unless you spend money in game. And forces updates but when it won’t do the update you can’t even play or open the game anymore. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Who ever makes the decisions need to be fired. *2026-09-07, version 9.1.101* This game has become a money grab and is filled with “updates” that have ended up ruining the game. Removing power ups, then bringing them back when you received backlash just to end up “updating” it again and changing how the planes interact when used. Don’t get me started on the FORCED multi DAY long Olympus Cup tournaments that lock you out of progress. At the VERY LEAST credit players for all the levels they beat while stuck in these stupid tournaments. Whatever employees that work for this game developer that make these decisions as “upgrades” deserves to be fired immediately. There’s a reason the saying “If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it” exists. ### 1/5 — Missing Expedition *2026-09-07, version 9.1.101* I am a 6 year player and suddenly don’t have access to the new Expedition event because of “testing”. Testing what? Unfairness? No compensation for this huge blunder either. Don’t download this game! ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2026-09-07, version 9.1.101* The makers are just out for money. They took the fun out of it. Skip the disappointment. Stop making these greedy people rich. They made millions if not billions in making people pay to play. ### 1/5 — Greedy *2026-09-07, version 9.1.101* They make it impossible to pass higher levels and don’t provide an “are you sure” option before spending coins, the option of which is in the exact same spot as the “play” button. Terribly greedy company. Sneaky and dishonest. ### 1/5 — Sort ur game out *2026-09-06, version 9.1.101* I played normally wasn’t winning payed £10 then was wining P2W game uninstall ### 1/5 — ليش هلكد اكو تحديثات ؟؟ لعبتو نفسي *2026-09-06, version 9.1.101* ليش هلكد اكو تحديثات ؟؟ لعبتو نفسي ### 1/5 — Home Pass *2026-09-06, version 9.1.101* Where is it? It’s not showing for me. Stop changing the layout with updates. It’s never helpful. ### 1/5 — Ick *2026-09-05, version 9.1.101* Fun game for about a month and then it’s near impossible to advance. 56 tries over 5 days…..3 times…..before clearing the level. Takes all the fun out of the game. Per greed. ### 1/5 — YOU RUINED IT AGAIN! *2026-09-05, version 9.1.101* I came back to the game and was so happy to see the boosters back to the way they were but then I notice I now can’t speak to my team. This is so unfair and very unnecessary! So my 1 star review stands until you put the chat feature back. I’m sure you have enough money to do so and we practically pay for it. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2026-09-04, version 9.1.101* The game is full of inequity. Expeditions that are published as being released on a certain date are not out for everybody only certain players will get certain features. There’s tons of bats that mess the competitions. It’s not fair and it’s a rigged platform not fair gameplay. Don’t waste your time. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ila *2026-09-07, version 9.1.101* I like this game and can you help me get my iOS so can update Roblox I love game and I got you five stars ### 5/5 — i like this game . *2026-09-07, version 9.1.101* good game , play it often ### 5/5 — really fun game as *2026-09-06, version 9.1.101* awesome ### 5/5 — Freeeezes *2026-09-06, version 9.1.101* Loving this game it’s definitely much easier to play now but occasionally it freezes and unless I restart my phone it won’t reload. Only been having this problem since the last update. Hopefully it will get fixed. ### 5/5 — Where has the chat gone *2026-09-06, version 9.1.101* So I have been playing for years. Have spent money on the game to support. And have been in the same uk group since almost the beginning. Please explain to me why you have removed the chat with no warning or explanation. This has detracted from my enjoyment, and seeing other comments here I am not alone. FIX IT ### 5/5 — Good game *2026-09-05, version 9.1.101* Pretty fire game ### 5/5 — Side games *2026-09-04, version 9.1.101* Is there only going to be the side game with the blue lighting bolts? If we could get some of the other side games back to play would be really nice. Example the matching pieces side game ### 5/5 — Game so fun *2026-09-04, version 9.1.101* This game is so much fun with side adventures and teams. I hope this game gets good rates. ### 5/5 — It is cool this i liked so much *2026-09-03, version 9.1.101* Thank for ho ever made this ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-09-02, version 9.1.101* I really enjoy playing this game! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
