### 3/5 — Crashing

*2023-07-26, version 1.40*

Every time the farferch add plays it crashes the game. Please delete the advertisement

### 3/5 — powerups

*2021-07-30, version 1.40*

can you add powerups to the game? and number 2 as well

### 2/5 — Game ads

*2021-05-21, version 1.40*

I supposedly have the NO ADS.  There is still game ads. The solitaire cash one does not have a mute for sound. I have sound off on the game but have to listen to the annoying GAME ads as not all of them have mute option. 😠

### 3/5 — Great game-aggravating ads!

*2019-04-08, version 1.40*

Love this game. It is a great one to play when stressed and you need to just rest your brain. However, when I started playing this, there was an ad here and there. Now there are way too many ads! Some of which don’t go away or if you don’t put your finger exactly right in the middle of the X to close it out, it starts to load the game advertised!!! Also, you used to only have to X-out once to close the ad, now you have to X-out twice?!?!?! I don’t play this one as much as I used to. To aggravating!!!!!

### 2/5 — Game went from good to crap - ADS are why

*2018-11-12, version 1.39*

What the hell?  In the middle of a game, an ad pops up.  Screw your game.  It isn’t that important.

### 3/5 — Game seems alright

*2018-09-18, version 1.39*

It’s ok but ads are annoying. You can pay a small amount to remove them, a longer ad free period or less annoying ads may have helped sell it.

### 4/5 — Jewel Fever Concern

*2018-01-24, version 1.39*

A great game.  My husband and I enjoy doing together.

### 2/5 — Ads are a pain

*2017-12-30, version 1.39*

Lately I haven’t been able to actually finish a game because of the pop up ads.  Stop it!

### 4/5 — Good fun!!

*2017-11-14, version 1.36*

Enjoyable and fun

### 3/5 — Lonnnnng ads.

*2017-07-04, version 1.36*

Ads between games take forever to go away. In the middle of a game words pop up saying "tap here to watch video and earn 2 extra minutes." You can tap till your finger bleeds and it still covers the ACTIVE playing board! Game was fun till I got tired of waiting for 15-20 second ads to stop and go away. And then having "watch video" ad cover the screen I was in the middle of playing. Deleted this annoying game and found better match 3 games in App Store.

### 3/5 — Still getting ads

*2017-05-07, version 1.35*

Hey guys - love the game, so wanted to get rid of the ads, paid the $1.49 and now getting different ads. You need to get rid of the ads or give me my money back. You need to make sure you give customer what they have paid for. Not good business practice.

### 2/5 — Good game but avoid

*2016-06-07, version 1.21*

Have always liked this game. When it came out there was no advertisements but now you need to navigate through multiple screens of different "games" that take away from the enjoyment. Find one that doesn't have distractions.

### 4/5 — Simplified version of Bejeweled

*2016-05-21, version 1.21*

This is similar to Bejeweled but for people who likes to keep things simple. Bejeweled is too overdramatic but this is simple. Couple glitches but overall a good game!

### 1/5 — The game cheats

*2021-08-20, version 1.40*

During a level the game will add more jewels you need to get, so if you’re competitive or just like a fair game, this is not for you. 

Also, you can’t make a match while the pieces are bouncing from the previous match.

### 1/5 — Never ending advertisements right from beginning

*2021-06-24, version 1.40*

Recently I have discovered that I am having much more fun deleting this crap. Another positive? I started reading a lot more. Give it a shot.

### 1/5 — Гребаная реклама

*2019-03-09*

Я чуть не обосрался, когда внезапно, в полной тишине, включилась реклама с громкостью на всю катушку.  Удаляю

### 1/5 — As Won’t Go Away

*2018-10-08, version 1.39*

I don’t mean it takes a long time to go away. I mean today I saw a new one and it won’t go away.

### 1/5 — 4 star no more

*2017-12-03, version 1.39*

I used to LOVE this game. Paid my 99 cents for no ads, then it updated. Now I have constant ads AND it crashes every single time I play. And not a quick crash, a crash that involves restarting my iPad to play again and half the time simply to get out of the app. My 4 star rating is now a 1 star. If they fix this terrible issue maybe I would change back but it's getting deleted soon if it's not fixed.

### 1/5 — HORRIBLE ADS!

*2017-10-12, version 1.36*

The ads are very intrusive. Often, you are "out of the game" for up to 15 seconds on a timed game. Occasionally, the ad will crash the game and you have to start over, losing what you had been doing. 

The ads destroy the value of the game. Don't bother to download it unless you are willing to pay to remove the ads. Otherwise, it's a frustrating waste of time.

### 1/5 — Ads ruin it

*2016-12-17, version 1.31*

Fun game, but a 30 second ad every minute is ridiculous. Deleted immediately.

### 1/5 — Waste of money due to Poor user experience

*2016-06-13, version 1.21*

I purchased the ad-free version for $1.49 but it still prematurely interrupts my game with a pop up message to log into Facebook. I don't want to but I can't clear the message and continue past level 3. I need to go back to the main menu, can't change settings to skip Facebook prompt and can't continue my current game. Waste of money in my opinion.

### 1/5 — Latest revision

*2016-05-13, version 1.20*

The latest revision is awful.  The flashing when tiles are removed prohibits the player from analyzing the layout until the flashing stops.  Also, the new commercials, which run after every two boards is really annoying.  I may delete this game, as well as the version 2 game.

### 1/5 — Use to love I just deleted it

*2016-04-14, version 1.20*

I used to enjoy the simplicity of the game. The newest update interrupts game play with pop-up ads that do not go away nor can be closed. It took me outside of the app so many times that I deleted it. DELETED IT! 
No longer enjoyable. 
I recommend skipping this version of the game.

### 5/5 — Relaxing

*2018-07-29, version 1.39*

This game is addicting but at the same time, a huge stress reliever . I strongly recommend it - the timed version is the best part.

### 5/5 — I would like to take a star away, but...

*2018-07-25, version 1.39*

I play this game to empty my mind from the days worries and I love it.
I want to take away a star, BUT, the game is not the gripe, how many Brunswick Auto ads must I see in a day without skipping ? 
They are a great dealership and our family all drive their cars, can you PLEASE make commercials skip able ?

### 5/5 — love it.

*2016-11-20, version 1.31*

love playmode. no ads

### 5/5 — Great game!!

*2016-10-25, version 1.31*

Highly addicting and very fun!! I play it every day and love it!!!!

### 5/5 — Love it

*2016-07-27, version 1.21*

This is how I get my stress out.

### 5/5 — Annoying new ads

*2016-06-26, version 1.21*

Please stop the new issue of ads opening up during your timed playing. You have to stop to stop the ads before you can continue the timed game. Love this game before the ads pop up on their own.
