Three stars for completing one session with a dozen or even more moves remaining (out of many), then maybe only one star for completing the next session with the SAME number of moves remaining. Makes no sense whatsoever. Wish there was a gameplay explanation available. ### 3/5 — 1 Minute Ad for … *2025-02-19, version 1.0.8* …every booster! Aaaack! Mental torture! I just d/l the app & at level 5 I couldn’t take anymore! Takes seconds to win the game & a fast ad between every level- which I can handle, but I can’t & won’t waste my precious time waiting for an advertisement for other apps I don’t want for a whole minute. I’m DELETING Any app that plays 1 minute ads! ### 4/5 — McDonald’s *2024-10-09, version 1.0.8* You have the McDonald’s add on there it won’t go back to the game once it comes on I love the game but hate adds that don’t work. ### 3/5 — Jewel Petty *2024-08-03, version 1.0.8* I like the game. It seems too easy at times. It rarely ever lets me lose. ### 4/5 — It’s ok *2024-07-01, version 1.0.8* I think the app is ok. Just not something I’m going to tell my friends about. ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-05-17, version 1.0.8* I am disabled , this game keeps my mind occupied. ### 5/5 — Jewel pretty ally *2024-04-25, version 1.0.8* I downloaded this game a few days ago, it is so much fun, loves the colors graphics and the bonus. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2024-04-02, version 1.0.8* Only been playing a couple of weeks. ### 3/5 — GalacticForeigner *2024-04-02, version 1.0.8* Decent game … lots of ads tho ! More than a lot of other games ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-02-28, version 1.0.8* I like that the game is hard, but not too hard. Some games are frustrating but this one I enjoy! ### 4/5 — Jewel Pretty Alley *2024-01-26, version 1.0.8* This is a nice matching game that is relaxing and fun to play. I wish there were a way to review the effects of each of the power jewels. ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-01-26, version 1.0.8* This game is so much fun! If you like matching games, you will love this one! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — M, Kay Elliott *2024-05-18, version 1.0.8* I can’t believe I have been on the same level. It just keeps repeating and won’t clear ### 1/5 — Portrait mode only, not landscape. *2024-02-09, version 1.0.8* I installed this game because the advert for it showed the game being played in landscape mode. If a game is only playable in portrait orientation, then it immediately gets disqualified. Sadly, despite the advert, this gane does not play on landscape orientation, so I deleted it. False advertising. ### 1/5 — Love the game, but oh the ads *2024-01-26, version 1.0.8* So many adverts… paid to go ad free… no change at all… have emailed my displeasure… I want my money back!!!! ### 2/5 — Fantastic game but with one huge bug! *2024-09-25, version 1.0.8* OMG! I’m about to give up on this game. GET RID of the McDonalds ad now! When it comes up you cannot get out of it without going to the app! Then you can finally get back to the game. Now I’m getting this ad 70% of the time. It’s driving me crazy. FIX THIS! 3rd request to fix the problem explained below. Thank you. I discovered this game recently and am really enjoying it. However, there is a major bug. At the bottom of the screen are boxes for your 3 “helpers” to use in case you get into difficulty. I’ve been playing long enough to have over 100 of each but the number in each box will only show 2 digits. For example, when you get to 100 it goes from “99” to “10” instead of 100. It doesn’t matter how far you are there are only 2 digits and you don’t know how many you have. When you get to 111 it shows 11. Please fix this immediately. I’ll be happy to change my rating to 5 stars when this is fixed. ### 2/5 — Fantastic game but with one huge bug! *2024-09-18* 3rd request to fix the problem explained below. Thank you.

THIS IS A SCAM GAME TO GET MORE MONEY,YOUR NOTHING BUT GREEDY PEOPLE, GET A GRIP ON LIFE WND GO OUT AND GET A REAL JOB, SCAMMERS. ### 2/5 — Freezes on ad always *2023-11-14, version 1.0.8* Great game but always freezes on one ad and never goes back to the game. Stop playing and wait until the next day or until you remember that you have the game. Very frustrating and unfortunate. ### 3/5 — 🫣 🧐 *2025-12-21, version 1.0.8* Being playing this game for a little while now but I’ve been going on and off liking / enjoying it 🫣 🧐 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-09-08, version 1.0.8* Great game, not impossible to get out, keeps me interested all the time.The best game to play !!
