### 3/5 — Why don’t tokens recharge

*2026-03-01, version 0.11.33*

You have to spend tokens to play levels, but they’re also the rewards for levels (and only SOME levels) so it’s possible to run out and get stuck. I was able to get one token by watching an ad, but then later only had the option to pay money for more of them. Other games like this have a passive recharge of earning like one token every 5-10 minutes up to a max of like 5, that would make this system work better.
I’m gonna delete and redownload the app and ration my tokens this time, and avoid all the extra levels since they cost tokens but don’t give them as rewards? But if I get stuck again I think I’m just gonna delete the game. 
It’s a shame, the logic puzzles themselves are fun, and I wish I could just play them!

### 3/5 — Watch ads to play

*2025-11-14*

It’s annoying that now I HAVE to watch ads to get my daily tokens. I understand watching ads for extra hints or extra tokens, but not for the daily tokens. If part of the game is to do the daily puzzle to get tokens, there shouldn’t be an extra hoop to jump through afterwards. I might be ok with it if ads are removed elsewhere, like between puzzles.

### 4/5 — Good game, good design but…

*2025-11-03*

This game is pretty solid. The only aspect that is frustrating is how feedback is given when a completed board is not the solution. If any piece that can be included in a sector of the board and is not included then aspects of the playing space flash at you. It is not always evident what these signals are telling you. This is confusing because at one point we are told there is only a single solution that will be accepted even if there are multiple solutions possible. The combination of how we are told there is an error and not knowing if the solution I am working toward is the single acceptable one leads to occasional frustration.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2025-10-07, version 0.10.47*

The game is great but it NEEDS a dark mode, this is so bright please

### 4/5 — The game doesn’t recognize correct solutions

*2025-09-30, version 0.10.47*

Very fun game but I’ve had a few levels now where the solutions I found aren’t the ones the game is looking for (even though it tells you any correct solution will work). Hopefully this will get fixed, otherwise it’s a lovely puzzle game

### 5/5 — Token Struggle

*2025-09-15*

I absolutely love the basis of this game which is why I gave it 5 stars! It is challenging but not so hard that you can’t solve it and this really tickles both the pattern recognition part of my brain with my love of great graphics. I love trying to figure out the rules and patterns. That being said, the only way to play is by spending tokens that you only get a few each day by playing the daily game. I do really wish the mechanism had something like other games where you earned a token every 5 minutes until you had 5 in your bank or something. It would absolutely make things more playable. But such a great gameplay!!!

### 5/5 — J’adore

*2025-09-14*

J’adore ce jeu, le principe est génial. 
L’interface utilisateur n’est par contre pas très intuitive, lorsqu’on ne connais pas encore bien le jeu et que l’on clique sur un niveau ou un icône pour en savoir plus, on dépense des jetons sans faire exprès. J’aimerai bien avoir plus d’explications sur certains concepts par exemple à quoi ça sert d’acheter des sets ? Je n’ai pas tester car je ne veux pas dépenser des jetons. Aussi je trouve que c’est dommage de gagner des jetons seulement avec les défis quotidiens, j’aimerai au moins pouvoir regarder des pubs pour en avoir des nouveaux par exemple. Dans la partie Map ça serait sympa de voir à quel numéro de niveau on est. Aussi en faisant le défi quotidien, si je commence par le difficile il ne m’est pas possible de faire le facile et le médium par la suite, est-ce que c’est normal ? 
Voilà en tous cas merci pour le concept il est vraiment génial ! Je vois que le jeu est nouveau donc je ne doute pas que les améliorations suivront :)

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your feedback. We're delighted you like the game and are grateful for your thoughts on how we can improve it in the future!

### 4/5 — こういうの好き

*2025-09-14*

論理パズル求めてたので楽しいです。調子に乗って遊んでたらトークンなくなって遊べなくなりました(苦笑)。デイリーを解いたらトークンが貰えるようなので、今後はちまちま遊ぶしかないので少し寂しいですね。解けた途端広告始まるの、最初驚きましたが、慣れました。ヘルプがないとか日本語訳が微妙とかは今後整備されるのかなと思います。

### 5/5 — Refreshingly Different

Great to find a brand new idea in puzzle games.

### 1/5 — Used to be good, now it’s bad

*2026-09-06*

I used to love this game, but then they updated it, which deleted all my progress, and filled the game with monetization. Don’t play this. It’s a waste of time.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2026-02-22*

Game updated and erased all my progress…

### 1/5 — Didn’t work

*2026-02-20, version 0.11.32*

I was playing the game and got to a level and couldn’t figure it out, so I click the ? mark and brings me to a video. Nice right? Well no, because I tried all of the methods they gave me to complete the level and none worked. Also tell me why I can only watch an add once and get a hit, but if I want more hits for that level I have to wait like 10 minutes to watch another add to get a hit. Fun idea and cool in theory, but needs some redoing and maybe updates on their videos or just the whole app.

### 1/5 — This is not free, even when you pay upfront

*2026-01-13*

Paid to have no ads, ever! You are given the option to pay or look at an ad for extra hint. I cut my losses and deleted it

### 1/5 — Good idea, ads make it unplayable

*2025-11-24*

Great concept but the ads are an absolute nightmare, really long and no option to pay to remove them

### 1/5 — Frustrating…I Quit

*2025-08-27*

There are multiple solutions to many puzzles,  but you must play a guessing game to see if you can get the “correct” answer the developers have deemed the right one. It’s extremely frustrating, so I quit. 

Map levels should give you AT LEAST one hint after passing the level. To provide zero hints as a reward is asinine.

**Developer response:** We appreciate your feedback, but we want to clarify that the game always accepts all correct solutions. You’re right that many puzzles can be solved in multiple ways. But, every valid solution will be recognised. If your attempt wasn’t accepted, then it didn’t meet the puzzle’s rules in full - even if it looked like it did at first glance. Keep in mind that solving a puzzle requires using all the shapes that follow the rule inside the circle. It’s not just about finding something that ‘seems’ to fit, but about ensuring that the total set of shapes obeying the rule are included. Sometimes, your solution might appear correct to you, but isn’t. We encourage you to focus on the total number of shapes that go into a circle. ALL the shapes that obey the rule belong in that circle. Doing this will make the Mindset logic much clearer.
Moreover, Hints (and Tokens) aren’t awarded after every puzzle. Check whether a puzzle will award them - and how many you will earn - by looking at the icons in the lower quarter of the screen before you start. In the first zone of the map, we give out lots of Hints to help you learn the basics. After that, Token and Hint rewards are reserved for Spur puzzles, which are designed to be extra challenging and let you play with different Shape Sets. Completing a Spur puzzle will always earn you rewards. For even more rewards, please have a go at the Daily Mindset, which gives out a bunch of Tokens and Hints. And if you’d like, you can also visit the Store tab to get Hint packs.

### 1/5 — Bad puzzler

*2025-08-27*

There are often valid solutions to the puzzle that the game does not recognize as wins. It’s really a guessing game about matching the developer.

### 2/5 — 何故か遊べなくなった、悲しい

*2026-01-22*

面白くて、デイリーを楽しみに遊んでいたのに、ある時から急にタイトル画面から先に進まなくなりました。
端末を再起動しても、データそのままに再インストールしてもダメでした。
進めたデータを諦めてインストールし直さなければもう遊べないんでしょうか､､､､

### 2/5 — Too Expensive

*2025-11-03*

Every puzzle costs currency to play, even "claiming" a puzzle set that you've completed costs currency. The daily play rewards aren't enough to play very often. It's like the devs don't want you to play without paying. At that point, make it a paid app.

### 2/5 — Crazy lag on iPhone 16pro

*2025-09-29*

Cool idea but for every second I can move, I freeze for 3 seconds. Do some optimization pls.

### 5/5 — The best of IOS

*2026-05-23*

Constantly challenging, great UI and extra features, it’s really one of the best games on IOS

### 5/5 — 업데이트

*2026-04-21*

너무 재미있어요. 맵을 다 클리어해서 새로운 맵이 없어요. 업데이트 해주세요~

### 5/5 — めちゃくちゃおもしろい

*2026-04-21*

ベン図を用いた論理パズルです。かなり頭を使いますが、閃いた時の気持ちよさが半端ないです。
図形も色々あり、デイリーパズルもあるため毎日やっても飽きません。
パズルをプレイするためにはトークンを消費しますが、デイリーとクエストをクリアすれば報酬としてトークンが貰えるので、課金しなくてもそれなりに遊べます。(でも目一杯遊びたいなら課金することをオススメします)
3回に1回は30秒程の広告が入りますが、課金すれば消せます。

ただし、ネット環境の良くないところでアプリを開くと、ステージやトークンが初期化されてしまいます。データは残っているので、ゲーム内の設定からバックアップデータを選択すれば復活しますが、あくまでも復活するのは昨日までのデータになるので注意が必要。

また、突然タイトル画面から一切進まなくなる不具合が数ヶ月続きましたが、最近アプデが入り再インストールしたところ復活しました。

総じて私はかなりハマっており、やりこんでいます。
一人で黙々とプレイできるのでとてもおすすめです。

### 5/5 — 자꾸 멈춰요

*2026-01-28*

게임은 재밌는데 자꾸 인트로에서 안넘어가네요 지웠다 깔면 되지만 귀찮네요.. 꼭 고쳐주세요

### 5/5 — Great!

*2026-01-16*

Cool concept. A lot of fun!

### 5/5 — Underrated

*2026-01-15*

This game is incredible, I don’t understand why it hasn’t blown up yet. I play a lot of IOS puzzle games and this one is in my top 3. The aesthetic is clean, the tutorial is clear, the interface is easy to use. If I had one thing to say, it would be that I got stuck multiple times on puzzles not understanding where I was wrong because in my opinion you haven’t made it clear enough that a solution is valid only if all the elements of a category are used to solve the puzzle. If one circle contains blue, all the blue elements of the puzzle must be put in this circle, thus reducing the number of possible answers to the puzzle. I don’t think it’s a bad rule I just think it should be emphasised more during the tutorial and as a hint. Overall an excellent game I recommend to all my puzzle gaming friends :)

### 5/5 — Great puzzle game, lots of variety

*2025-10-04*

Great concept, really enjoying the variety of symbol sets and the fun of playing with them. 

Bought the ‘own the game like an old person for 30 days’ pass, hope it’s successful. 

Please make it harder to accidentally spend tokens on unlocking rules - just a confirmation would be lovely. 

Would be nice to be able to exchange hints for tokens, even with a multiplier.

It has squirrels

Brilliant App!

### 5/5 — 오랜만에 좋은 게임

*2025-09-17*

퍼즐게임을 정말 좋아하는 입장에서 적당히 머리 쓰는 게임이 필요했는데, 갑자기 제 알고리즘에 등장한 이 게임이 그 바램을 충족시켜줬습니다. 광고도 있기는 하지만 많지는 않고, 심플한 디자인과 과하지 않은 배경음악이 너무 마음에 들었습니다 ㅜㅜ 도파민에 가득 절여진 게임들만 하다가 이 게임을 하니 뇌가 건강해지는 기분이..ㅋㅋㅋ
