AMAZON, PELSBARN, and many more take over the game. As I wait until the time is up it automatically takes me straight into Amazon or PELSBARN and also with one or two others. As I go out and press X it takes me straight back into these annoying ads and this can take, I’ve counted them, to about 7-10 times. If it continues I’m sadly going to have to get rid of the app ### 3/5 — Adverts are annoying *2026-07-13, version 2.2.5* Used to love this app. Hardly play it now because the ads have taken over. They are the tricky kind which trap you into clicking the cross to close it which then opens whatever is advertising (usually temu). Ruined the whole thing. ### 2/5 — Zuviel Werbung *2026-06-21* Das Spiel an sich ist recht gut. Allerdings vergeht einem der Spass am Spielen recht schnell da nach jeder Runde Werbung gezeigt wird die nicht gerade kurz ist. ### 4/5 — Good But One Serious Issue *2026-06-18, version 2.2.5* Fun to play casually but once you reach the top 3 divisions on the league it has an absolutely insane cheater/bot count rigging the standings with impossible coin counts in impossible amounts of time. Also encourages pay to win on the shop. But overall, fun enough. ### 3/5 — Okay *2026-06-05, version 2.2.5* It’s good it’s just that when I am playing games it won’t let me get coins after ### 2/5 — Good game but……. *2026-05-24, version 2.2.5* This is a fun game but there are way too many adds. I am usually ok with the odd add during the game but this is ridiculous. You have to watch an add after every level, another to unlock gems and it only give you one at a time, adds to double coins which you need, adds adds and more adds. ### 2/5 — Too many ads spoiling it *2026-05-10, version 2.2.5* Loved the game until ads are constantly playing for a few minutes spoiling the game, you play one game and get a long ad, I tried to turn off internet because its downloaded but then you can’t play. Such a shame uninstalled now ### 3/5 — Fun game *2026-05-06, version 2.2.5* To many adverts ### 2/5 — Too many ads *2026-04-30, version 2.2.5* So many ands, they are long and sometimes interactive. VERY annoying. Makes me not even want to play. ### 1/5 — Awful *2026-04-28, version 2.2.5* **Edit** Tried again hoping had improved. Worse now as no way to get out of Ads once playing. Started free trial VIP and still got tricked into watching an Ad there was no way out of. Horrendous game that could be good. Back to Royal Match for me!!!! Downloaded, played for 10 mins, watched more ads than games played. Deleted!! ### 1/5 — Doubling up stopped working *2026-04-22, version 2.2.5* I was enjoying the game until last week when the doubling up feature stopped working and despite emailing you for help/explanation I have had no reply. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, cleared cache, updated the app yet still it's not working. I'm really disappointed because I was enjoying it. A reply/suggestion/help would be appreciated ### 1/5 — Buggy *2026-04-15, version 2.2.4* This game is so buggy it just ruins what would be a fun game. It regularly freezes and doesn’t give you the rewards it says it’s given you. Don’t waste your time with it. ### 2/5 — Glitch *2026-04-11, version 2.2.4* I’ve been playing this game for almost a month and my favourite feature is the bingo. I’ve never had problems with the bingo feature until yesterday. I had just finished the 4th sheet to unlock Shanghai when the game stopped loading and froze as it unlocked the “welcome to Shanghai” and I waited for a good 3mins then I exited. When I reopened the app I had to start bingo sheet number 4 again. I am very disappointed because I try my best to keep my profile 100% and the game gives me 50%. Please I just want my shanghai unlocked. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bug frozen page when playing *2026-07-08* Since I elevated to the platinum level all was well, but now each time I play the page is frozen, can t go forward neither backwards so having to reboot my iPad , must be a bug, hope it can be fixed as I really enjoy the game.
