I know a lot of app developers have tried to create their version of Match Masters so thought I’d give this one a go. You’re playing bots, not real people, I know this because I started and left a game a few times and when I went back on it was still going. ### 1/5 — Dumb pay to win game *2023-06-27, version 1.1.8* Waste of time. All “players” are bots there is no online pvp . They make you think you are playing online with randomized names and characters but its all a scam to run ads on your phone and hope that you buy things in game. I started game and turned off my phone screen for like an hour. however l was still connected to this “online” match. Lmaoo ### 1/5 — Glitches constantly *2022-12-23, version 1.0.8* Game started out great and fun. Noticed as I started doing upgrades with the app. In the middle of a game, it started switching between to the App Store for no reason. Now I’m completely knocked out of my account, and it’s making me start from the NULL. I’ve lost everything!!!! ### 1/5 — Could be way better VERY UNBALANCED *2022-06-15, version 1.0.0* I played 3 games and was put with people with top boosters. I’m good at these little games it there was no wins. Lost all the boosters I started with. Timer is u balanced as well. Needs many fixes ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — FAKE GAME DO NOT PLAY *2026-05-17, version 1.6.5* I have pictures / PROOF of how bad this game is. For example, the star match game , the BOT got all the stars, and when it was my turn I had absolutely no stars. If you want a good competitive game play match masters (I play match games to help with anxiety attacks so I’m very familiar with several similar games and this has to be the worst). And how is there a 4.6 rating!?!?!? THATS crazy. Literally worst game ever. ### 1/5 — FAKE GAME DO NOT PLAY *2026-03-10* I have pictures / PROOF of how bad this game is. For example, the star match game , the BOT got all the stars, and when it was my turn I had absolutely no stars. If you want a good competitive game play match masters. ### 1/5 — Complete scam to get your money *2026-02-02, version 1.6.5* Don’t spend a dime you HAVE to pay to play! ### 1/5 — A shameful mess of a game *2026-01-14* Don’t spend a dime ### 1/5 — Used to work great *2025-06-03, version 1.6.5* I used to love playing this game but it stopped working lately. It won’t load up and says network is a little stuck and goes no further. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I’ll go play Match Masters! ### 1/5 — Such a dreadful unbalanced game *2025-05-28, version 1.6.5* Put me up against players who obviously spend so much money on this game for their boosters and have no chance in hell of winning…..delete before you start wasting your time ### 1/5 — Shame on you *2024-07-26, version 1.6.2* The developers should be ashamed of themselves. This is the most obscenely RIGGED game I’ve ever played. They only ever match you with bots that will win 98% of the time because each move will be set up for them to get more points. My legendary boosters get lost the very first time I use them because the game board will be rigged against me at every turn. Legendary boosters that take me one entire week to acquire. These bots get the absolute best possible moves generated for them with the best luck you could ever imagine, while I’m left with garbage possible moves after. This is their way of forcing you to buy the better boosters. Once you’ve played long enough you will only ever be matched with boosters that are better than yours causing you to lose every game. I will not spend on a cent on your scam of an app. ### 1/5 — Only gives you old stickers *2024-05-19, version 1.6.2* Why the stickers to s only ones that I finished the new album mother day I never got one sticker yet ### 1/5 — Pay 2 Win *2024-05-02* It’s just like Match Masters it’s definitely rigged as you level up you start losing it’s set up this way this game was fun in the beginning it’s trash 🗑️ ### 1/5 — Game not fair *2023-11-21, version 1.6.0* Why is it I play several games it’s always the appointments that starts it’s unfair as they get all the good moves should be equal starting just a rip off of match masters playing with bots as like other persons comment here you leave come back and game is still playing ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — SO MUCH FUN !! *2024-04-24, version 1.6.2* This game is Wild!!
