### 2/5 — At this point…

*2026-08-22, version 4.1.0*

The 240 coin purchase should not be $20. That’s a bit much. 

I purchased 240 coins for $8 several months ago. 

Please revert back to the old pricing and I will purchase more coins.

### 2/5 — LEVEL 104 IS GLITCHED!

*2026-08-21, version 4.1.0*

FIX PLEASE!

### 3/5 — Okay

*2026-07-31, version 4.1.0*

I mean it’s okay but I have three major problems: 1: the art style is horrible, o prefer Peggle 2’s style. 2: the achievements are locked, I can’t get any of them. 3: the game is challenging, and it’s so challenging that I, someone who 100%ed Peggle 2, can’t get past Batrina. These are five major problems that need to be fixed. If they were fixed, I will up the review. But for now, I’m keeping it at 3 stars.

### 1/5 — Life systems are trash

*2026-07-30, version 4.1.0*

This is trash, why the hell do games have a life system, it honestly just ruins the game. It’s a good game, but because of that it’s annoying and not fun to play. Having to wait 1h to play again is ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Awesome game turned into a scam

*2026-07-29, version 4.1.0*

The game ads are regularly blocking you from returning to the game even if you wait and watch the full add. They make money when you click in frustration trying to return to the game. Icky scam.

### 3/5 — Game is fine, but I can’t turn off the sound!

*2026-07-29, version 4.1.0*

I’m satisfied with the game itself. I’m not seeing constant ads, but I get the option to watch ads for bonuses, etc, which is fine. If I run out of lives and have to wait, in my opinion, that encourages sane gameplay. Plus, you can replay previous levels without having lives if you REALLY need a game to play at that exact moment you ran out of lives. 

Big problem I’m having is I can’t turn off the sound effects or music. I want to listen to other things while I play, but I can’t turn peggle’s sound off without just lowering all my volume. I see the buttons both in-level and in the main menu settings, but when I tap them nothing happens. Other buttons work, for example I was able to turn off the personalized ad settings, just not the sound and music. It makes it way less playable for me because the sounds and music are annoying when I don’t want them on.

### 1/5 — You want what? For me to play children’s pachinko?

*2026-07-27, version 4.1.0*

Nah don’t bother with this. I didn’t know you could shove so many micro transactions in a single game!

### 4/5 — It’s good

*2026-07-24, version 4.1.0*

Not as good as Peggle deluxe, but still Peggle.
It is crazy hard though. If you don’t want to run out of lives, just close, and reopen the game before you click the “end game” button.

### 1/5 — Literally impossible

*2026-07-23, version 4.1.0*

Listen I’ve been playing Peggle for at least 15 years now. Had it on PC and all. This version? Impossible. They have these gnomes (that makes you hit the ball twice before it disappears), ice (that makes you hit the ball THREE times before it disappears) AND bombs (that make you lose automatically after 5 ball throws) in ONE level. Dude, it’s impossible. I’ve tried like 50 times but this is ridiculous at this point. It’s SO clear that they’re just making levels hard so you spend money on extra balls. No way man. It’s just so scummy because Peggle is such an old game! Also I’ve literally never written a game review before and that tells you how strongly I feel. Like come on.

### 1/5 — Lame

*2026-07-15, version 4.1.0*

Game is clearly pay to win

### 1/5 — You have to wait 20 minutes?

*2026-07-10, version 4.1.0*

Just let me try again. You’re asking me to stop playing your game because I lost? Okay I will?

### 1/5 — Where's Ode to Joy?

*2026-07-07*

Seriously, 2 levels and no Ode to Joy

### 1/5 — Used to be fun Now infuriating

*2026-07-07, version 4.0.0*

Too many levels are almost impossible without power ups, where is classic Peggle? Want to love this game but it sucks

### 2/5 — Ads make it a ‘no’ for me

*2026-07-06, version 4.0.0*

I’ve played the Peggle games for a long time and was happy to see one for iOS. This one looks and runs great - until the ads come in. The wait for new lives is a bit annoying but not a deal breaker. Being forced ads and no option for an ad free version definitely is. I’d happily pay for an ad free version, but as it is - I’m uninstalling.

### 1/5 — Thanks, end-stage capitalism

*2026-07-04, version 4.0.0*

This Peggle has none of the glory of yore due to the injection of an inexcusable amount of ads. Don’t waste your time downloading.

### 1/5 — Ruined Gem

*2026-06-25, version 4.0.0*

This game used to be so great back then in 2015, now they ruined it with so many annoying ads and made the levels harder which leads to earning extra perks by needing to watch more ads. Such a ruined gem unfortunately.

### 1/5 — Shameful

*2026-08-27, version 4.1.0*

Game was good for years and now it’s unplayable without making purchases. Never struggled so hard to beat a level in my life and it’s not a skill issue. Deleted!

### 1/5 — Challenging

*2026-08-27, version 4.1.0*

BS you get 5 lives a day so kinda pay to win. If the green pegs are in a bad spot you’re basically down a life. Took me a month to get to level 62. Very frustrating. Deleted, no longer worth wasting my time

### 1/5 — Ad’s every level after playing till level 56.

*2026-08-20, version 4.1.0*

Was loving the game until around level 56 where it randomly made me watch and Advertisement EVERY time I needed to replay a level. Not worth being bumbared with ads every 3 minutes to play a phone game.

### 1/5 — Pos app

*2026-08-16, version 4.1.0*

Used to like it but it won’t even let you turn off the sound .. every other button worked expect those and of course the ad sound was so loud.. making money where they can.. I used to love this game but the sound buttons and the advertising made me hate it .. deleted it

### 1/5 — DEFINITELY DON’T WASTE TIME!!!!!

*2026-08-13, version 4.1.0*

The game would be perfect if it didn’t bombard your ads ESPECIALLY AFTER COMPLETING A LEVEL. I’ve been stuck on this one level and FINALLY BEAT IT! But it made me watch an ad and I closed the app to reopen it to skip the ad and I had to try to complete it but lost and it was my last life so I’ve had enough.

### 1/5 — Peggle Blast is such a disgrace to the original Peggle

*2026-08-08, version 4.1.0*

I played Peggle Blast from 3/28/25 to 7/10/26 and I can confirm it's one of the worst games I've ever played. Back when my Xbox 360 worked in 2017-2020, the original Peggle was so goated before EA bought PopCap. It truly was felt like playing a video game. The original 2000s developers want you to win. I kind of wish I was conscious in 2009 and not a baby thanks to games like these. However, with Peggle Blast they want you to lose so you're forced to pay money to win later in the game. I made it to level 90 and then deleted the game for good which I'm never reinstalling again.

### 1/5 — Too many adverts

*2026-08-06, version 4.1.0*

It was fun until it started making me watch an ad after every death

### 1/5 — Garbage ad push app

*2026-08-01, version 4.1.0*

Garbage compared to old Peggle.  Watch garbage game ads to finish levels. Advance a bit and now watch ads after every level fail.

### 1/5 — Cash grab

*2026-08-01, version 4.1.0*

Nothing like the original game, made with lives, which you can purchase your way out of, every 5th level is so hard you either have to try for days to get lucky or buy your way out. If you’re looking for nostalgia from the old desktop game. Just forget it.

### 1/5 — NO ONE LIKES THIS GAME

*2026-07-30, version 4.1.0*

Just bring back Peggle deluxe and night back and you will make everyone happy

### 5/5 — ADDICTIVE

*2026-08-21, version 4.1.0*

Good good good

### 5/5 — Вот что скажу:

*2026-07-31*

Отличная игра, окунула в детство, когда я играл в Peggle на Xbox360. Игра не надоедает, все качественно проработано (для мобильной версии). Всем рекомендую!

### 5/5 — very addicting omg

*2026-07-29, version 4.1.0*

i LOVE peggle blast!! very addicting!! it keeps me and my buds very busy during band camp. we LOVE secretly playing this in the closet when we’re supposed to be helping and doing work! WE LOVE PEGGLE BLAST!!

### 5/5 — Peggle 2

*2026-07-18, version 4.1.0*

Are you going to make a peggle 2 or add more levels? My son and I like playing this game together and just completed 208.

### 5/5 — i love pegging

*2026-06-24, version 4.0.0*

bald at pegging

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2026-06-18, version 4.0.0*

Love this game. Just give me some time to earn some money in real life too, so that I could at least pay you especially if I could start my own business. I understand that you want me to play more and more, but the extra time that you require is more possible if you give me time to figure out a way to get my financial at least OK in a country that isn’t free. It is a great game and you should have confidence about it.

### 5/5 — Secret Tech + People Complain

*2026-04-09, version 3.3.4*

Obviously this game is nothing like peggle deluxe or peggle nights offered on PC, but I think for a mobile game it gets the job done. Amongst reviews, the two common complaints I’m seeing are about the ads and the difficulty. It’s 2026 and somehow, some people don’t know that you can just turn on airplane mode to avoid all ads while playing OR you can simply close the app and reopen whenever you get an ad without it affecting level progress.

This game certainly has some difficult levels; it took me roughly 6 months to complete this game in its entirety. For some of the difficult levels you have to run trial and error and come up with a legitimate strategy for the given unique level. Some of the boss levels are hard but I noticed that if you force quit the app and reopen it, that you will come back on level 2/4, 3/4, or wherever you were without it resetting to the first stage. This method is also good for unlimited lives because if you force quit the app when you lose a level, you won’t lose a life for it.

### 5/5 — More levels please!

*2026-03-15, version 3.3.4*

I’ve finished the game once before and I’m hanging back on finishing it again,so can we please have more levels? I enjoy it so much!

### 5/5 — Melhor

*2026-03-08*

Depois das últimas atualizações ficou mais difícil, o que é ótimo.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-03-03, version 3.3.4*

Really like the og and that’s what I was hoping for. Recommend this game for bored adults
