Poor monetisation strategy
A good game. I’d pay to remove ads. But not £14.99. Ads are too frequent and intrusive. Whilst I get this incentivises buying the ad-free version, the pricing is well-off and must be losing the dev team money. People may pay £4.99, possibly a bit more - I would. But not £14.99 for a mobile puzzle game.

Too many ads
Game is fun but it gets interrupted way too frequently even in the middle of the game. I don’t mind ads in between levels but right in the middle is ridiculous. I deleted the app as it was unbearable despite how much I like the game
Mid
Could be better
Interrupting ads!
Especially as a new player, being interrupted in the middle of a play for ads is very disruptive. I’m happy to pay for a game that I understand, but I’m about ready to uninstall this one because the ads get you just as you’re connecting the dots. I can see this as a very fun game. I like the logic and the challenge. But if you’re going to have ads, have them after each round instead of multiple times in the middle.

Good game, but horrible controls = worst programmer ever
90% of the errors I make in these puzzles are the result of bad programming. The puzzles would be much easier to solve if the controls were properly programmed. Selecting mark or erase should either be a touch choice or controlled by settings to choose between touch choice or toggle mode. If there is a toggle control offered, then the visual indication of which is chosen should be VERY clear and pronounced, not subtle. The coding was done to omit a setting, lock in toggle mode, and use very subtle indication of whether the game is in choose or erase mode. A great game has been ruined by amateurish coding.

Ads
Way too many ads! I will be deleting ap. Very challenging game otherwise!
OOPS! All Ads!
$14.99 for ad free. kick rocks.
Constant ad interruptions
I got to level 10 and they started interrupting the level with many ads. I lost count, but it was around 7 - in one level. It’s difficult to remember where you left off in your reasoning or even where you had been working on the grid.
I’m deleting it.

ADS!
Way too many ads for what you get. Unless you’re willing to pay to get rid of them, this one is a definite PASS!
Ads are ridiculous
This is a fun game but the amount of ads is ridiculous. There is an ad after every single level. And the game gets interrupted randomly with additional ads. And they charge $15 if you want to remove the ads!
Great game if you like ads
Challenging game that kept me interested. Excessive in-play ads lead to deletion.
Great concept, but ruined
Love the mental challenge of this game, but sadly ruined by the most number of ads of any game I’ve played. Ads in the middle of a puzzle are a hard NO; they break concentration. Will be deleting.
Fun, but…
I like the game, and I’m fine with ads, but not when the ads pop up in the middle of the game. That’s a line you can’t cross. Do better.
Was fun, then not
I’ve had this game for a couple of months. I had one complaint, but was going to give it an otherwise glowing review. However, this week the ads increased so greatly that I can’t remember what I was focused on from one to another in deleting it today.
My prior complaint was the the small numbers are illegible. It would be nice if we could zoom in. I have to screen shot and zoom every time I want to see the inside number.
Now, with the onslaught of ads, I zoom to see the small numbers, return to see an ad, then wonder which squares were 16 , 19 and 37, etc. after the ad, I don’t remember as many. I put a number in and again, another stupid ad pops up!

WAY too many ads
We all expect to see ads these days, but this game will break in the middle of a puzzle for an ad. The game is Great. I love the concept, but successfully completing a puzzle requires concentration which is broken when an ad pops up in the middle of a game. Deleting this game from my phone.
This game is truly a scam
While the game is fun the amount of ads is absolutely insane. During one single level there was 8 different ads interrupting me and making me forget what number I’d erase or circle. Then to pay for ad free you want $15??? $3 is normal, $6 is expensive but $15??? I’m baffled people let you bully them into paying that much with your incessant amount of ads.

Bad ad timing
I actually really enjoy this game, but when I’m in the middle of doing a sum and an ad pops up, it’s really annoying. Similar games I’ve played display forced ads before or after a puzzle, but not in the middle of it. That would be preferable.
Too many ads
This game is challenging and I like it. But an ad pops up after every 2 moves. By the ad finishes I have lost my thought making me want to quit playing. Developers Less ads please
Ads ruin experience
It has ads IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GAME that ruin the play experience. $15 to remove ads. Money grab. $5 and I would have paid. But the continual interruption caused me to uninstall.
Ads are over the top!!!!!
This could easily be a 5 star app- but when you have an ad pop up every few plays- LITERALLY!!!!! You are just being a jerk! Stick this game where the sun doesn’t shine!
