### 2/5 — Add

*2026-06-20, version 2.69*

It takes way too long when there’s ads and it gets really annoying

### 2/5 — Used to be good

*2025-11-01, version 2.69*

Why the endless syncing now, every time I open the app up. Another game I quit playing, just like crafty candy.

### 2/5 — Rewards

*2025-10-08, version 2.69*

There is no opportunity to earn  additional coins while playing.  Also the added choices are to sensitive when playing I barely pass across the bottom of my screen and suddenly something has been chosen but it wasn’t what I wanted to do and there is no chance to turn it off when it was done in error

### 4/5 — Sound

*2025-06-11, version 2.68.2*

I love this game - but the sound has stopped working not sure how to get it back

### 4/5 — Good

*2024-11-25, version 2.68.2*

This game is totally addictive! If only there were no ads!

### 3/5 — New levels all the same

*2024-10-30, version 2.68.2*

Level 4966 and on that just opened are all the same. Please fix them!

### 3/5 — Fun but there are issues with prizes and support.

*2023-11-12, version 2.64*

First of all, I like this game overall.  The artwork is appealing and the story is set in interesting locations, some of which I have looked up because I was not familiar with them.  I also like the special weekend games where you can earn bonuses.  My issue is with prizes or rewards. It is nearly impossible to win or earn coins, unlike other games where you receive at least one for winning levels.  One of the prizes is poster pieces.  They have not put a poster in my collection in over a year so those don’t do me any good.  I’d like if they could give a choice of prizes in the chest, so that if you can’t use poster pieces you could choose something else.  Support has not been responsive or added any posters for me.

### 5/5 — Updates

*2023-10-18, version 2.63*

I have to update the app. every single day a real pain

### 5/5 — great

*2023-08-31, version 2.63*

love it

### 3/5 — Crashing

*2023-06-01, version 2.62*

I’m unable to open the app, keeps crashing, please fix!

### 2/5 — Mystery Match

*2023-05-13, version 2.62*

This app I have been playing for years. Now all of a sudden I’m having problems with my updating and saving progress. This is very irritating. I was wag up on a level near 1800 and its very discouraging to loss my progress. If someone isn’t done to reinstate those levels, I’m ot putting another dime into this game.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2023-05-10, version 2.62*

I’m not one to give ratings but this game deserves it. I can’t begin to say how many years I have been playing. I have completed the initial plot and am on level 2810.  In all that time I have never had any issues with the same software. I have played on both iPhone and Samsung. I’ve played by myself with no help from friends.
I intend to continue playing until there are no more levels. Which I hope doesn’t happen.

### 3/5 — Game has changed!!!

*2023-04-30, version 2.62*

I used to love this game but now they keep giving you puzzle pieces but there’s no puzzle and it’s like they don’t want to give you anything, even the extra moves have dropped from 5 to 3 and the coins you earn is less what you actually need to buy extra time.

### 4/5 — Fun game but needs to be updated

*2023-04-20, version 2.62*

Please update the game.

### 4/5 — Frustrated

*2023-04-12, version 2.62*

Game crashes after pressing play

### 5/5 — Mystery Match

*2023-03-21, version 2.62*

Love this game.

### 1/5 — Boring

*2024-08-17, version 2.68*

Boring and repetitive.

### 1/5 — What the actual heck

*2024-01-30, version 2.65*

Played this game since first release years back actually got to level 3735 on the game, until it kicked me out and then kept telling me to log back in which I did it’s now taken me back to level one and every level I’d completed is now gone so unless I’m returned to my actual level I’ll be deleting the game and not play again

### 1/5 — Too expensive

*2023-12-05, version 2.64*

Higher levels  700+ are impossible to win without a purchase!  Playing a level 200 times without a win without a purchase is boring….  And unaffordable!  Subway now cost 12.00 dollars!  Bidenomics isn’t working!

### 1/5 — Fun game but unstable and the developers don’t reinstate your previous level precisely

*2023-04-12, version 2.62*

I actually love this game. It’s fun and challenging. The flaw is it crashes and even if you have logged in via apple, you lose your progress, coins, lives and special powers which you paid good money for. I had thousands of lives lost and never reinstated. And just recently, the game crashed again. I paid money for those lives and I expect them to get fully reimbursed

### 1/5 — Boring!

*2022-10-10, version 2.58*

This is absolutely the most boring game I have ever played. Stuck on levels for days! Do not waste your time.

### 1/5 — Good if you are really bored

*2022-01-14, version 2.51*

You will get stuck on a level & you will be stuck on it forever, unless you pay up for helpers - which I refuse to do!  So, I play this while I am waiting for troops to train (Clash) or lives to build up in other games,

### 1/5 — Fun game but unstable and the developers don’t reinstate your previous level precisely

*2021-09-11, version 2.47.1*

### 1/5 — Very disappointed

*2021-07-30, version 2.46*

Loved this game but now my entire progress has disappeared. I was essentially at the end, playing new levels as they appeared and competing in the league. Not happy

### 1/5 — Omg ThiS Game

*2021-02-08, version 2.40*

I downloaded this game for ones of my friends said it was great game. I downloaded it and I did not anjoy it. I tried playing it and found the stery annoying and the gameplay annoyinger. I thought it was challening because it gave little too no time to Finnish the puzzles. Ecspeciially that level where only black gems on sides gotten. For the love of love me friend and I bash our head against wall it was challenging with strict time. I also ran out of the lives and took forever to gain. Now I did not complet the game, but why in the y do we go to antarica then London then Finland or where ever we go. Why all over the place?

### 1/5 — Can’t progress without spending money

*2021-01-29, version 2.40*

It has good points, but just know that you will need to buy boosters to play most levels. Even when the “win streak” is happening and you get boosters anyway - they’re still not enough. The game is designed to put the pieces where you don’t need them, or just take a few extra turns to supply a piece you need, but by then the turns have run out.

### 5/5 — Clothing makeover

*2026-05-14, version 2.69*

I have been playing this game for about 8ish years & love it. But I’m really tired of what Emma’s wearing. 
Give her an update in her attire! I know it’s a 1930’s setting but she would change her clothes once in a while. 😊
She deserves something nice 💕
