You work to fill the chest with 5 keys and you get 1 lousy coin as a reward. The levels become hard enough that you have to buy coins, mainly because the rewards are practically non-existent. May delete soon! ### 3/5 — Too small. *2020-12-28* New version is very frustrating, the game board is smaller and you have to be very precise with your moves or the wrong move may be made and mess your strategy up. And the game pace has been slowed way down due to the game adding different game pieces after a move. ### 5/5 — Christmas *2020-02-11* Only just started playing this game and I love it and if it stays the same I will probably go on loving it. ### 4/5 — Pretty good, not great *2019-12-08* No ads, which is nice. Graphics are nice, music is best left off. I wish there was a way to quit when you know you cannot complete a level in the # of moves left. After a while (level 19) you have to buy more & more boosts. So it is no longer a game, just a slot machine that you do not make money on. ### 5/5 — Merry Christmas *2019-12-08* Very addictive! ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2019-12-02, version 1.5.0* Love this game and the.Christmas music! ### 3/5 — Too slow *2019-12-02* Like the game, but you can’t skip the graphics when there are moves left. This is annoying and takes too long. ### 4/5 — Jenna *2019-12-02* Really good game. Enjoying it. ### 5/5 — Good fun *2019-12-01, version 1.5.0* A good puzzle. ### 5/5 — Fun and relaxing game *2019-11-29* No stress, 5 lives, what’s not to like! ### 5/5 — Challenging *2019-11-18, version 1.5.0* Fun match 3 Christmas game. I’m happy I tried the game, you will be, too. ### 4/5 — Fun but *2019-10-21, version 1.5.0* Game is fun but , us on fixed income can not afford to play ! ### 5/5 — So far (just started) but great game *2019-09-26* I actually searched for Rank One match 3 games. They are my favorite...easter egg has been frustrating to say the least but this one seems much better, like halloween. I am up to level 65something! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Eview *2021-01-04, version 20.12.16* I want the old version back, hate this one ### 1/5 — Update Has Disabled Game *2020-12-19* Loved playing this game but I just updated and now it won’t even open. NOT good ### 1/5 — Kim *2020-12-18, version 20.12.16* Hate the update!!! ### 1/5 — Money grab!!!!!! *2020-11-07, version 1.5.0* They want 1.99 for 5 extra moves.......not lives....MOVES! Ridiculous prices for bombs and extras. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t do anything *2019-11-24, version 1.5.0* Looked fun so I downloaded it and when I opened the app, there was a demo that said to match 3 but not a darn thing happened. I deleted it and reinstalled but nothing changed. Disappointing. ### 1/5 — The Game Cheats You *2017-11-13* I feel this game cheats you in order to coerce you to buy items. There will be moments on levels where you don’t even have enough of an item to win, and then if you purchase an item it seems to give you an abundance on the continuing levels. Eventually it’ll go back to square one where you don’t have enough of the interns again. Plus what’s with this free game crap? I don’t want a free game! I would like a free special move to use in the game! ### 1/5 — Huge let down *2017-02-23* Amazing graphics but the game is sadly awfully let down by no combos or combo icons to use, not challenging, no home button, help or rules etc. Shame really but too basic and boring. ### 1/5 — Meh *2016-12-04* You make two moves and the games plays on forever without any input - boring. ### 2/5 — All they want is money *2019-12-21* I did give this game 5 stars at first , but changed my mind quickly . While I understand they need to make money this game is completely greedy. I play several match 3 games and usually if you don’t complete a level you can use your earned coins or watch an ad for a few extra moves , this game wants $1.99 for extra moves . I’ve spend money on many games because I enjoy them but never would I spend money for extra moves . It seems like the higher levels end with you only needing one more piece to complete and I find it suspicious that it happens several times . Deleted it since there are so many other options out there . ### 2/5 — Loved this game *2019-10-08* I have played this game for several years and I loved it. I thought the new update would make it great, but I am very disappointed. On the other Rank One games you earn things to help in your quest to beat the level. I don’t earn anything except the chest which does nothing. If I click on the chest, it just tells me to spend money. If I click on my points, I can “purchase “ some items, but they disappear and I don’t know where they go. So I am playing a game with no rewards or helps to get through when needed. No reward every few levels like the other games. Hoping you will change this. I have several of Rank One games on my phone and iPad. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Yes Jayashree. *2024-05-14, version 20.12.16* Like it very very much. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2023-02-19* I’ve been playing this game for some time now but I don’t get coins or anything else just found out my game is on pause and I can’t unpause it but I still play ### 5/5 — Santa all year *2023-01-10* Love the graphics.
