Good puzzles, but the ads have become unbearable
Good puzzles, but the ads have become unbearable
I used to play this during Covid and remember having ads before and after each puzzle, which was fair enough. Coming back a few years later, I’m now getting three ads in just ten minutes of play, interrupting the puzzle itself. For a puzzle game that’s supposed to be relaxing, it’s ridiculous.
They’re labelled “short ads”, yet some last around 90 seconds, including interactive ones that seem to force you to play before you can close them. On top of that, so many puzzles now require payment.
I understand that a free game needs to make money, and I’m not against ads or paid content. But this balance has gone completely wrong. Three stars because the puzzles themselves are good, but the experience has become frustrating enough that I’m giving up.
If you reply, please address these concerns with something useful. A generic apology saying you hope I’ll keep playing won’t change the reason I’m leaving.

No adverts - what a lie
Downloaded it from the advert stating there is no adverts and then they adverts start.
No issues with you having adverts to pay for your app but don’t lie about it.
If you lie about that what else are you lying about?

Jigsaw - is a good app with a varied supply of puzzles spoilt by the ridiculous amount of adverts - at the moment I’m lucky if I go 5 minutes between them

Great App
Have completed over 13,300 puzzles so far and love it. Variations in puzzle piece size, shape, number of pieces per puzzle and the format. Options to customize colours and layouts. Huge selection of puzzles on almost every subject you could want. Daily, weekly, monthly and special challenges. Timed competitions. Option to purchase puzzles or play for free. I have only ever played the free option. Great app.

Advertising frustration
I gave you 4 stars and love playing the Jigsaws, however is there anyway I can pay for no adds? It really gets so frustrating. I feel it is the sort of thing that needs your constant concentration and the adds really break this.
