I’m five minutes off deleting. ### 2/5 — Disappointing *2026-08-19, version 3.1.11* Not given the colors to finish the game without requiring me to watch an extra ad or paying money on level 18. That’s way too soon for me. Not worth the frustration. ### 2/5 — Once Great / Now Flawed *2026-08-18, version 3.1.11* I’ve had this app for a long time and it’s definitely one that keeps you entertained for quite some time as I use it quite often… The games challenges are great and the levels are interesting and I love that they give you a general difficulty rating before you play each round or board; but over the last three months, I keep finding flaws that are really affecting the game and the playability… They’ve become so inconveniencing and downright annoying that today was my last play. One of the major flaws is as you choose a colored section, that section keeps shrinking in size rather than keep its shape in size as it was supposed to so as you play, it gets harder and harder to hit the color or piece because they’re becoming tiny… The other flaw, I’m finding more often now (in the past 30 days), is a color will freeze up, meaning you cannot pick that piece, so even though I need to pick the white to fill the missing piece it will not allow it and the only way to get around. It is to sacrifice and use special tools or and the game and start over, which kind of sucks. The other thing I never understood over the years is the button selection on the lower right corner… It always seems to say coming soon. ### 2/5 — Too many ads that I can’t close down *2026-08-18, version 3.1.11* Delete app after a few days as the ads drove me mad. Last for far too long & you can’t close them down - even after a couple if minutes ### 2/5 — Fun but expect to either spend a lot of money or watch a lot of ads! *2026-08-15, version 3.1.11* You will not get to upper levels and be able to clear them without boosts, which of course you can earn, but those are few and far between. You can also watch ads to get them, but they are super long. This game is also frustrating because when my phone is on silent the game and ads will blare sound, super annoying. I would recommend searching further for another game. ### 3/5 — Misleading advertising *2026-08-08, version 3.1.11* I downloaded this app because the ads said there were no ads. That was a lie. The app forces you to watch ads between levels. I am deleting this app because I don’t like supporting dishonest marketing. There was nothing special about this game to set it apart from its competitors and I found the colors dull in comparison to a similar game I already have. ### 2/5 — Game is fun-adds are way too long *2026-08-06, version 3.1.11* I play quite a few games and this game, while enjoyable, is not nearly as enjoyable as mani if the other games I play because the ads are so long. I see the same ads on other games and the ads on this game are at least twice as long. The developer didn’t have to do this. They must be paid more to make them this long otherwise there would be no reason for that. You have to watch an ad just to collect your prize at the end! Seriously!! It keeps me from playing the game as often as I otherwise would. This would be a five state game if not for the long ads. ### 3/5 — Frustrant avec et sans pub *2026-08-04* Sans payer, on a la pub chiante qui dure des plombes mais on peut s’en servir pour continuer un tableau. Si on paye pour enlever les pubs, c’est fini ! On ne peut pas continuer un niveau, sauf si on paie bien sûr ### 3/5 — Too many adverts *2026-07-31, version 2.9.16* I downloaded this game because I saw it advertised saying it’s completely free to download and advert fee. Don’t believe the lies! It has loads of adverts. Shame because the game itself is quite addictive but the adverts definitely put me off. I will probably end up deleting it. ### 3/5 — Game Freezes *2026-07-23, version 2.9.16* After an ad finishes, the game freezes and you have to restart the level. Please fix. ### 3/5 — Better than the others but… *2026-07-22, version 2.9.16* If you made progress with the level your on but leave the app for a few minutes: be careful. The app refreshes itself and not only is your progress not saved… you lose a life too 🙄 ### 1/5 — Not relaxing *2026-07-16, version 2.8.92* I hate a game that plays against you. ### 1/5 — Totally Rigged *2026-07-15, version 2.8.92* I actually paid for the ad free version an loves it for a long time. But since the last two updates it’s impossible to move up a level without purchasing helps. I’ve retried the same level 100 times using more than 20 earned helps that I had saved up. Still couldn’t do it. And it’s not even a hard level. They’re just out for money and it’s really no fun any more. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Suspicious *2026-08-18, version 3.1.11* This would be my favorite yarn game but they’re suspiciously good at making you watch at least one ad almost every game. ### 1/5 — Fun but Pornographic Ads!!! *2026-08-14, version 3.1.11* The game is challenging and fun. However suddenly there are ads popping up that are pornographic! Children play the game on their parent’s phones! It’s disgusting! ### 1/5 — They say no ads but they lie *2026-08-04, version 2.9.16* I downloaded this because it said no ads and played a few levels and then here is comes - ad break - lies lies lies ### 1/5 — Game play too inconsistent *2026-08-03, version 2.9.16* When you first start out, the game is fun, but as you progress to the higher levels the games become impossible to beat without watching adds, spending bonuses, or paying money. There is very little skill involved in beating levels. You need to pay to do so. ### 1/5 — Unfair restart of game *2026-08-03, version 2.9.16* I have played this game for months. I found it very relaxing. But I am not willing to play a game where I have built up points, and have them taken away and have to start all over again on the first game. I’m tired of unfair game. You can keep this one. I’m deleting you. ### 1/5 — Ridiculous hard levels *2026-07-31, version 2.9.16* Really liked this game for a while. Pros: great graphics and touch to reveal Cons: hard levels became ridiculously hard where you have to watch five ads just to solve it. Not so relaxing. ### 1/5 — 広告多い *2026-07-28* 課金させる為に広告が多いのと、 中々クリアできないような仕様になってるなと思いました 広告多くするならもっと楽しませて ### 1/5 — Can’t win without paying anymore! *2026-07-23, version 2.9.16* I really enjoyed this game, and I was willing to put up with the ads. However, adding in the piggybank feature to hold 2,000 of my coins hostage was the final straw. It takes so much effort to earn that many coins, and I watched my supply drain even as I completed rounds because my winnings all went into the stupid piggybank. I will not pay for them, for coins that I already earned through playing and watching ads. In addition to that, you took away the option to watch an ad to restore your play. Now, the only option is to use 900 coins each time!!! It takes forever to earn 900 coins, especially when 100 out of every 150 I win are going to my piggy bank So, I will officially be deleting the app now. Congratulations. You lost another user through your greed and bad choices. ### 1/5 — Level glitch unless you pay *2026-07-19, version 2.9.16* I got to level 111 and there is no way to move ahead unless I purchase coins or tools. Very frustrating and disappointing. Was really enjoying this game but after days of trying to overcome this level I am ready to delete it. ### 1/5 — Glitching or cheating? *2026-07-18, version 2.8.92* Therapeutic and relaxing, YET it only gives you FIFTY of the ONE HUNDRED & FIFTY coins you EARN after each level. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Cabilla *2026-08-30, version 3.1.11* I enjoy this game but too many adds ### 5/5 — Best Game! *2026-08-24, version 3.1.11* I love this game so much! It helps with anxiety & relaxes you, plus there’s always a booster available if you get stuck. I would rate this one 10 stars if I could! ### 5/5 — Time *2026-08-14, version 3.1.11* I could play this for hours ### 5/5 — Relaxante *2026-07-29* 5 ### 5/5 — GG *2026-07-28, version 2.9.16* Love the game but it could cut down on the adds though (I know it needs adds so at least not as many) ### 5/5 — Knit away the person who wrote this is Anayeli *2026-07-21, version 2.9.16* I love this game because I live how like there are different cute animals and food and it is really satisfying ### 5/5 — Fabulosa *2026-07-16, version 2.8.92* Simplemte me encanta ### 5/5 — Must have *2026-07-09, version 2.8.92* I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed playing this game to pass the time and also play something strategic! Love it! ### 5/5 — Addictive *2026-07-02, version 2.8.92* Really addictive. I waste too much time playing this ### 5/5 — Fun Game *2026-06-15, version 2.6.8* Not too many ads. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
