### 5/5 — Very Enjoyable Game

*2021-05-13, version 1.5*

Entertaining graphics, lots of variety, and no annoying limitations like restricted number of lives. Some levels are quite challenging but there are plenty of opportunities to obtain jewels for assistance. Hope this continues to get updated...

### 1/5 — Fun at First

*2020-03-09*

It was fun at first.  You got to play a bunch of levels without an ad. Then I got an ad.  No big deal. I can take one every 5 levels or so.  Not the case.  After they get you playing and enjoying it, then they slap you with the ads. One after every single level. And after they show one with dogs getting sick forget it!!!  I cannot take that!! Good bye!

### 1/5 — Poor App

*2020-03-01*

Not sure if it’s a ploy to get money, but on level 54 the game does not present (in any format) the amount of purple flowers required to pass/complete the level.

**Developer response:** The required number of purple flowers are on the board from the start of the level. You can remove them by creating and using power-ups which remove a row or column. How to do this is explained at the start of level 2.

### 3/5 — Can’t play on iPhone XS

*2019-11-01*

I love this game and play it on my iPad all the time. I used to play on my iPhone XS but now it won’t even open. I’ve deleted it and reloaded it and it still crashes. It just opens to the smiley gamer screen and immediately crashes. Too bad because it’s a really fun game. If I could play on my phone I would definitely give it 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Great game but...

*2019-09-22*

I really like this game.  The graphics and challenges are fun especially at the higher levels.  However it crashed and now the bamboo doors won’t open.  I’ve deleted and reloaded, which deleted everything (and I was in the 700’s!), started me back at the beginning, and did it again.  So frustrating because I really enjoyed playing.

**Developer response:** Please send us an email from within the game, there's a contact button on the Settings screen (accessible from the title screen). This way we can put your progress back.

### 4/5 — Play as long as you want, no lifes to lose

*2019-06-02*

Wish some other games would let us play as long as we wanted, maybe not. Challenging enough to keep this one on my phone & I play daily most of the time. I guess I’m used to the ads they don’t bother me. Game is easy to maneuver with my arthritic hands, graphics are nice, try this one, it does get harder the more you play.

### 5/5 — Amazing game for kids 👍🏻

*2019-04-28*

It’s amazing to play with a friend or two.

### 5/5 — Sandy

*2019-02-18, version 1.3.4*

I love this game, but there are to many ads that pop up. Old granny here,but your games help keep me on my toes lol, and not bored all day.

### 4/5 — More game boosts

*2019-02-06*

I’m pretty much addicted to this game, I’m on 169, but I’ve been on it for two weeks. It would be nice to be able to get more boosts when needed. I’ve only been offered to buy a package once. Thank you.

**Developer response:** You can buy jewels on the level map, which can be used to buy boosters in the levels. You can also get a free booster every day by spinning the wheel on the level map.
But if you're stuck on a level you can also contact our support team to ask for some tips. There's a Contact button in the game on the Settings screen.

### 5/5 — I love this game!

*2019-01-14*

I really love this game! So much fun and addictive!
