### 3/5 — Can’t open the app to play anymore

*2024-11-14, version 1.20.2*

There’s a bug, guys!  The app won’t even load anymore.

### 3/5 — Kann mich nur anschließen.,

*2024-05-31*

habe vip gekauft und komme  nicht mehr ins Spiel. Hat der Entwickler schon zu viel Geld?

Problem bitte schnellstens beheben, dann gibt es auch wieder volle Sterne, oder ehrlich sein und das Spiel einfach löschen.

### 3/5 — New Orders please

*2024-04-03, version 1.19.1*

I liked this game at first but now it’s becoming boring as all the delivery’s are the same. There are different generators (the music one the gym bag etc) that are never used for deliveries. It’s the same few things over and over. I don’t know why I waste my time especially since the developer does NOTHING about the things we are all complaining about in the ratings. Why have ratings and reviews when you don’t use the feedback to better the app. Cmon people

### 1/5 — Mies….

*2023-11-08*

Das Spiel ist wirklich so prima, wie es alle schreiben …. Dann aber nach unzähligen Stunden plötzlich ein Hänger! Nix lädt mehr…. keine Reaktion und keinen Support! Das ist schon gemein…  Es könnte wenigstens eine Erklärung dafür gegeben werden.

### 5/5 — Review

*2022-12-27, version 1.17.0*

I’ve been playing merengue friends for about a year and a half and I love how the developers usually update the game and give it good game updates. I’d recommend Merge Friends for whenever you’re bored and have free time. Thank you Merge Friends!

### 5/5 — I love this game, but lately…

*2022-04-10, version 1.13.0*

I love this game and had no problems playing until the latest update and now I’m stuck on the loading page at different percentages and then just closes out! Please fix this as this is one of my fav merge games ever!!! Ty

### 5/5 — Kl

*2022-04-07*

Ich liebe das Spiel ! Aber leider öffnet es sich nicht mehr seit 2 Tagen 😭

### 5/5 — I love this game…. But

*2021-12-02, version 1.10.0*

This is a fun little game.  It would be better if their were more deliveries or at least varied more.  I’d like more mini games, like the cat series.  The toughest thing is it takes FOREVER to level up.  I actually timed it this time and it took 23 days to go from level 55 to 56 with daily play.  That’s a long time.  I won’t be opening the level 60 area until spring :(
