Sponsor making it hard to see Jellies

Decent game, but the Progressive logo needs to be moved down. Smaller clusters of jellies get hidden by it, making it difficult to play the game since you need to be able to see all jellies.

Greedy

$50 micro transactions and an insurance company ad that partially covers the game

Scummy ads

Way too many ads; you’re pretty much required to pay to remove them to even play at all.

Even after paying to remove the ads, surprise IAP ads will constantly show up while you’re playing. Almost like it’s trying to get you to accidentally hit “buy”.

And now they’ve turned the whole playing field into an insurance ad? That feels gross.

Impossible to play with the Progressive banner

Any jar over 200 capacity is being blocked out of view at the bottom with the Progressive ad banner.

Concept fine, the branding is too much

It’s a fun little game. My kids love it and that’s the only reason I’ll keep it. Egregious number of pop ups for in-game purchases. When I saw the full-on Progressive branding in the newest update I thought “okay, this has officially become ridiculous”.

Remove Ads Lied

paid 4 bucks to remove ads but it still shows ads when i run out of jelly and click the 50 free jelly button. If the purchase only removes the random 5 second ads and not all ads, it should specify that. this is an absolute scam.

Not bad

It could be better I can’t lie

timer + ads

this game is so frustrating. the timer system is absurd and the amount of pop up’s they show to try to get you to buy stuff…

Why I think this is bad

1. Too many ads
2. My phone overheating when I play. Please fix this

5/28/26: I barely get red gems, give me red gems as an offline earning when I get back on the game

6/10/26: still limited Jelly, give us unlimited Jellies for free

7/1/26: I deleted the game and all of my precious progress because you guys didn't listen to us, when I reinstall this game when you guys actually listen to us, I expect all of my data to be back, understood?

7/23/26: dude, it says no ads, but there's ads, this is false advertisement, which is illegal

SOO SATISFYING

i got hooked. it is so satisfying i could fall asleep!

annoying

it’s so annoying that they do an ad break when your in the middle of playing like stop. the jelly also take over an hour to fully refill. like if you want me to play the game then don’t make me wait. also the in game purchases are so expensive like who is spending $49.99. not me! on the verge of deleting this game. was fun at first but all the ads and time it takes to refill is making me bored.

Oh boy.

The audacity in trying to throw $50 dollar buying options and ads every 30 seconds while I’m trying to get a feel of the game is wild. After dealing with that… the games isn’t even fun. This is not a game I’d keep and play regularly in any capacity. I feel silly for downloading it at all 🤣🤣🤣 I’d give no stars if I could 🤦🏻‍♀️

I HATE the jelly refilling mechanic.

Having a limited amount of jelly is SO annoying! Like, why do we have a limited amount? I hate it so much.. im getting a different jelly merging game because of this.

Addictive but there is one problem…

This game is quite addictive and passes the time but the problem with it is that the jellies are finite? I have to wait 30 secs per jelly? If the we calculate that, (200 to fill it all the way, 30 seconds per jelly multiply, make it into minutes or hours…) the minutes that it takes to refill the entire amount of jellies would be about 1 hour and 40 minutes… so the only way to get out of spending almost two hours just to play one game is to either use in-game currency such as rubies or using real world money…

Thanks for reading this review.

So addicted

This and after hours of playing, it is so addicting. This game is so fun and it is so satisfying i’m gonna help you relax after a hard workout/day. I would totally recommend downloading this game so much fun.

No background music

I wish this game have background music to make it less boring because sometimes it gets boring when there’s no background

jelly storage

Please remove the jelly storage feature why would you ever want someone to have to stop playing your own game for over an hour just to refresh their storage. Other than that it's a great game but I would rather be able to play for an hour straight instead of 5 minutes every 2 hours.

Game resets once closed

Very enjoyable but when i close the game my money, jelly and jar size are reset.
