Fun to play very enjoyable

### 1/5 — Beware: The app’s description neglects mentioning that…

*2022-05-20, version 4.1*

…there are IAPs.  Also, mandatory viewing of abundant ads required — deleted due to lack of transparency by Developer and for too many ads.

### 5/5 — A great innovative game

*2021-07-02, version 4.1*

A refreshing game that’s great to play at any moment. An excellent story too. The game offers a new take on old classics.

### 4/5 — Fun game

*2021-01-17, version 4.1*

The game has a novel and refreshing  concept for match 3.  Any chance more levels will be added?

### 1/5 — No landscape iPad mode - deleted immediately

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2020-04-07, version 4.1*

Enjoying the game. How many weapons are there collect?

### 5/5 — Thank You Push Pop

*2020-03-11, version 4.1*

I have been wanting to try this game out for the longest time.  My reluctance was with ads for f2p and the initial purchase price for full content.  You have listened to the masses and put a price that I...and most who love Tetris and battling games are more than willing to spend.   I am enjoying the game as I thought I might.  My only gripe is the sensitivity of the controls.  When I drag too lightly the block rotates when I never intended for it to.  I have not switched the settings from swipe to tap yet so hopefully that resolves the issue.  Other than that it is a great game.

### 5/5 — Match Mountain

*2019-12-18, version 4.0*

Such a fun game and well designed!
