I was looking forward to playing this game but by the reviews I don’t think I missed out on much ### 1/5 — Never write reviews *2025-06-07, version 1.1.5* Way too many ads absolutely ridiculous how many ads there are ### 1/5 — Ads ruin it. Don’t waste your time! *2025-03-02, version 1.1.5* Absolutely the most obnoxious quantity of ads I’ve even seen for any app and I’ve tried many. Deleting unfortunately. Life is too short. ### 1/5 — TOO MANY ADS! *2025-01-04, version 1.1.5* Like the title suggests, way too many ads. Every time you solve one part of the scene, boom ad. Can’t play offline either. Such a fun game but the ads kill it. 🥲 Such a shame, as clearly from the other reviews it’s never been dealt with. ### 5/5 — lowkey od with them ads *2024-12-22, version 1.1.5* click one time it’s an ad for like 30 seconds click after that it’s another ad like dude cmonnn ### 1/5 — Absolutely outrageous amount of adds *2024-12-19, version 1.1.5* There was genuinely a 20 second add every single time I pressed a button, used to find this game really fun, not a chance anymore ### 1/5 — Ads *2024-12-05, version 1.1.5* The amount of ads make the game not worth it. I don’t even get ads after a full level I get ads every time I get a clue. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fun. But it’s to worth all the ads. ### 2/5 — Fun game but to many ads *2024-07-17, version 1.1.5* I use to love this game but now there so many ads that it’s not fun ### 2/5 — Overheats my phone like crazy!!! *2024-05-21, version 1.1.5* I loved this game when I first downloaded it, but now it overheats my phone within seconds of opening it. No other app causes my phone to heat up like this. The phone becomes too hot to touch, so I am deleting the game. ### 1/5 — Annoying ads. *2024-03-22, version 1.1.5* Way too many ads to actually enjoy the game. ## Frequently asked questions about Pocket Mystery ### What is Pocket Mystery?
