### 2/5 — Oh boy !

*2023-08-03*

Tweeking my review. Purchased the ad-free version, which was great initially. But, as you become versed on the ball shoot strategy, the AI deems it difficult to level progress without purchasing “gems”, which are not cheap. Be forewarned.

### 2/5 — Great game, but…

*2022-09-02*

The ads are just too much. By the time I’m done waiting for the ads, I don’t want to play anymore.

### 2/5 — Pay to win

*2022-01-04*

Pay for no adds and the watch adds anyway or pay to win. Disappointing

### 3/5 — No help & Too Many Ads

*2021-11-27*

What is the purpose of the black balls? Are you suppose to get rid of them or destroy? If you’re to destroy then how? 
Help section for problems like this would be helpful. 
Since I can’t find any answers, I’m deleting game. Let me know when it’s fixed. Love the game otherwise.

### 2/5 — Looking for a replacement

*2021-10-04*

Pros:
- the art
Cons:
-ball colors seem rigged at times 
- ads every time you pause or finish a level 
- some random levels are stupidly difficult

### 3/5 — Why rigged…

*2021-09-07*

This would have been a much better game if the creators don’t rigged the colors constantly by changing the balls into other colors and just leave it alone. I think you know what I’m talking bout. 
Been playing enuff shooting bubble or ball games to know better.

### 2/5 — Overkill on the ads

*2021-08-06*

Enjoy the game but deleting it because if the overload of ads

### 3/5 — “Coming soon”

*2021-08-01*

How many more months is “coming soon”?????

### 3/5 — To many Ads

*2021-01-03, version 1.0*

Fun game - but to many Ads

### 1/5 — Frustration Is Not Fun

*2023-05-02*

I have played games similar to this in the past and none go from a beginner level to extreme pro in 20 steps.  This version is so incredibly difficult so early in the game that it ceases to be fun.  I could not find the instructions for this particular game (although they may be somewhere).  Little ‘reward’ icons show up as you are playing but it was unclear how you catch these.  Do you shoot at it?  Do you tap on it (which I did and sometimes it worked, other times not).  The lines of balls were never-ending.  There was no way to tell how many more strands were coming my way so I just kept shooting balls until 99 percent of the time the game wins.

I will probably play over another few days and try to find instructions that maybe explain how to capture the rewards.  But if I can’t find those I will end up deleting the game.  It’s not entertaining to be stuck at early levels.  Games should be challenging but the player has to have some hope that as their skill level increases so does their ability to win.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-03-27*

I know games will have easy to difficult levels but in this game levels are difficult from the beginning, I also want to have fun not get headaches just playing a game

### 1/5 — Unscrupulous

*2022-12-14*

Not only are the ads setup to be really sneaky by hiding the x button or making it so it doesn’t recognize your touch and instead launches App store, but it also makes you go back and forth between the done screen about 3 times Play one game fir about 20 seconds then watch 30-40secobds of the loudest most boring commercials that you can’t skip youdefinitely spend more time waiting for ads than you do playing the game. 

But the worst thing they do is make it so you have to use in app-purchases. This is only because they are greedy and gets them by having to let families share. 

Gameplay is mediocre and buggy with entire sections where you have to guess what to do not enjoyable and really frustrating. And though we all know that the marble games are mostly about them withholding the color or action you need, this one does it on steroids. At first it was funny about 30 minutes in you realize that you have to buy the game cause replacing your phone after seeing the same terrible ads over and over making you want to throw it across the room 

It’s a feeble attempt to duplicate the original  Zuma in between ads. . . It’s only 2 dollars but for everyone in your family.   Terrible decisions this app made

### 1/5 — If you like ads then download

*2022-07-12*

There’s an ad after every level

### 1/5 — Such a Bad Take on a Classic Game

*2022-05-26*

I wanted to be excited when I found this game because I have such good memories playing the old one as a kid on my computer. But this game does not even come close to the original. Bad level design and horrible glitches. Do not recommend playing it if you remember the originals.

### 1/5 — Fun but ends at level 120

*2022-02-07*

The game ends at level 120. I would have never started the game and paid for the add free version if I had known.  Same thing happened with classic Zumba.

### 1/5 — Love this game but no new levels

*2022-01-05*

I was super excited when I found this game but now I am at level 120 and I beat it but I can’t go any further because no new levels available it says “coming soon” 🤷‍♀️ Well when will new levels be available been stuck for a month now. Very disappointed!

### 1/5 — Worst Zumba ever

*2021-11-17, version 1.8*

Terrible

### 1/5 — Rigged

*2021-09-25*

Definitely rigged on ball color. Game goes out of it way to make you lose, even in the early levels you fail due to refusal to give the color ball needed. Hard pass, deleted

### 2/5 — was fun for awhile

*2023-09-14*

Was a great time killer after buying the ad-free version. In order for you to advance to higher levels, the game becomes impossible, unless you purchase “cheat” weapons. As a consequence, I will delete, as it takes up space on my device.
