We're actively reducing the number of bots in matchmaking, and this will be fixed soon, so more of your duels are against real players. Detail like this genuinely helps. ### 3/5 — Bug in Patches *2026-08-23* When I try to play the patches, I’m unable to cover the rows properly. If I want to cover both the left and right sides, or the top and bottom sides for the same number, I’m unable to do so. It only allows me to select one side, and when I try to select the other side, the previous selection gets automatically unselected. **Developer response:** Hi Swapnil, thanks for the detailed feedback! We apologize for the glitch with patch selection. We've reported this bug directly to our development team so they can look into a fix for an upcoming update. ### 4/5 — IMPROVEMENT - GLITCH *2026-08-21* The game is overall super good. However, if we accidentally swipe to the right during a match, it takes us to the home menu, and we eventually end up losing the match. Kindly fix this issue. It’s really annoying and can ruin the entire match. ### 4/5 — Feedback - solve for the clear button *2026-08-17* Your clear button is such an irritating tool, pressing it by mistake instead of undo clears the entire puzzle and it’s extremely irritating. You need to add an undo clear button or put it somewhere else. Undo is a much more used tool than clear button. Also in puzzles like sudoku, if someone is using notes and that digit has been now used, it should automaticallly disappear from the notes then. ### 4/5 — Problem faced *2026-08-12* when the internet connection is unstable, sometimes, The screen comes out from the game, but for the other person, the game is runningm as a consequence that person wins and points get deducted from my side in a high margin. This issue needs to be fixed. ### 4/5 — Confusing puzzles *2026-08-05* This game is a solid idea and I am addicted to it. It has a clean UI, proper leaderboard and friendship system. However, matchmaking is sometimes unfair as you either get high ranked players or low ranked newbies. Moreover, games in puzzles are very confusing (especially Ken Ken duels and Math Cage) and the rating system of puzzles should be exactly like Maths. No matter how much you win, your puzzle rating progresses very slowly and that is the reason why I have the lowest rating in puzzles. Otherwise the app is good but I would have appreciated a proper tutorial when you install the game for the first time. ### 4/5 — Good *2026-07-27* Best For Brain Exercise ### 4/5 — Fun *2026-07-27, version 1.26.0* Fun and competitive way to learn math ### 4/5 — Interesting *2026-07-25* I had download this before 15 days ago but not opened today open and play some game I am shocked that I am unable to solve simple problems but after using now I am able to recall all maths problems nice app must try for 1 month at lest ### 3/5 — Sudoku puzzle issue *2026-07-22* The sudoku puzzle it provided me is incorrect and unsolvable because the correct numbers in other spots are also need in the “incorrect” spots, but it's the only answer that fits when the rest are labeled “correct.” ### 5/5 — Great games that actually make you think *2026-07-21* Not like most mobile “puzzle/brain” games that have the most basic solutions ### 5/5 — I like *2026-07-19* Really nice I’m finding out that I’m not that good in squares - working on it ### 5/5 — Strong initiative against brainrot *2026-07-18* The cofounder of this app is my alma mater, I feel its a great initiative against doomscrolling by providing a platform to have duels with like minded people, although I think many questions are repeated especially in the logic ability section, but I think developers will enhance with time ### 5/5 — Review *2026-07-18* Enjoyed the games and I think these game really improved mu cognitive abilities. But sad because of getting repeated same cards in football event 🙂 Overall I would definitely recommend to install and play ### 5/5 — Best time pass *2026-07-18* Best thing ### 5/5 — Duels are peak *2026-07-18, version 1.23.120* Peak app, where I can face off against monsters in speed math. Simply brilliant. ### 4/5 — Very good app but flaws are there *2026-07-15* It is a very good game for IQ of the brain and today’s Gen Z but your contest on FiFa World Cup 2026 is a flaw one as we are counting playing the game but not any jerseys. how much more should be play to get a jersey of our favourite players. Please answer and help your die hard player of this game🙏🙏 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bad UX *2026-08-24, version 1.39.0* Fun app, but leaving this at 1 star until they disable three ability to swipe right to go back while you're in the middle of a game. ### 1/5 — Bugs *2026-08-09* Présence de bugs ### 1/5 — Scammed people and Betrayed them *2026-07-09* Seriously IITG people You smart brains decided to make a fool out of so many people to increase your audience. Obviously I am talking about the fifa event scam at Matiks where people are spending over an hour daily not to realise that the algorithm is not what they expect but Insanely biased to not let you win. Only Bots are winning and that too is stupid. Ik you terribly messed up the math of how many people you will reach with this event, but This is not the way… Many like me will uninstall the app for this reason :( **Developer response:** We hear you, and we're sorry the event left you feeling this way. Every winner is a real player, and since we reworked the drops more people win daily. Your time isn't wasted, that grind won't go unrewarded. Take another look as we'd hate to lose you. ### 1/5 — Supports What Now..? *2026-05-25* I saw your ads, about how this game was going to sharpen minds, make us think quick. Get our thinking back and stop OUTSOURCING IT. So how do you think one would feel when they see you guys using an GenAI advert, one that doesn’t even cover the usage of your app at that. Whatever you stand for, it’s BS. You stink, and a simple shower won’t cleanse you of the past. ### 1/5 — Instantly Sold My Info *2026-05-25, version 1.21.100* The moment I put my information in on this app, I immediately got blown up with spam messages. Not a fan. ### 1/5 — You only play bots *2025-10-18, version 1.11.200* This game would be much more fun if it wasn't trying to boost engagement by having people only play against bots, so they feel like they are winning. I don't really mind if that means the queues take longer, or people arent in my exact elo range. Also the ranked elo should give you more or less than normal when you first make an account, so it can find your skill level. This game also feels like it does steal a lot of assets from duolingo and chess.com which could pose an issue if it becomes big enough. ### 2/5 — Can’t complete games *2026-06-21, version 1.23.100* After every game, I’m met with an Oops sorry screen. I can’t seem to log scores or start streaks, even on multiplayer. ### 2/5 — Played two games *2026-05-14* And then they asked me to review. I did a math one. I hate math but it made me do it even though I picked puzzle. Then I played the puzzle (memory game) and it was a lot of fun. I won both, but here I am doing a review they’re asking me to do at the r less than 5 minutes on the app. I have yet to explore the UI, I haven’t tried 80% of the game modes. Why did you want me to write this review? ### 2/5 — Nice app, but loses its novelty pretty quickly *2026-03-21* Interesting app with a solid idea and several good features. I enjoyed it a lot during the first week, but over time the experience started to feel inconsistent. Some opponents play at a competitive level, while many others seem significantly weaker than their ratings, which makes matches less engaging. It also feels like a large proportion of games are against bots, likely due to a limited player base, and this reduces long-term interest. Additionally, the app can occasionally become unresponsive, and in a competitive game this can affect match outcomes and be frustrating for players. With improvements to matchmaking transparency, bot balancing, and overall responsiveness, this app has strong potential. I’d be happy to revisit it after these issues are addressed. **Developer response:** hey, thanks for the thoughtful feedback - it's really valuable these are known issues, ongoing issues and we're actively working on better matchmaking and improved stability. Appreciate you trying Matiks and we hope to win you back with upcoming updates. ### 2/5 — User name edit *2025-11-06, version 1.11.200* Just downloaded this app, had a bug or glitch occurring during changing my user name but the app is greatt ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — love it *2026-09-01* love it ### 5/5 — Killer game *2026-08-26, version 1.39.0* Love it ### 5/5 — Good Math *2026-08-25, version 1.39.0* I love playing this game, it’s improving my math 🤗 ### 5/5 — Wander ful games I am increasing my Bren power *2026-08-16* Wery good app strong your mind ### 5/5 — Grabe *2026-08-16* Tanginang apps to ang ganda pang pa talino libre pa tapos may strike or magagalit sila pag di ka nag laro kasi ayaw nilang ma bobo ka ### 5/5 — Very Good game *2026-08-15* These days i am not very fond of some mind games, because all claim to be very focusing and etc etc and then gives you the same same challenges.
