Aucune évolution, aucun évent, plus de nouveaux hero. Rien…. ### 1/5 — Полная шляпа *2024-09-08* Ты заходишь в игру, чтобы какой-то чухан вынес твою пачку раз..бав при помощи одного движения комбо все поле. Пора запрещать к е..ени бабушки все игры с рандомами ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-04-11* Cool game, well made all around good job with teams etc. question tho when I try to change my name it doesn’t work? Any ideas or am i stuck with the one I originally picked? Awesome game either way lol ### 4/5 — Норм *2024-03-18* Нет квестов, сюжетки. Можно конечно играть, но видно что игра под донат заточена ### 3/5 — Sortez les sous ! *2024-03-10* Démarrage plutôt sympathique, règles du jeu simples mais voilà, pour progresser il faut des coffres et pour ouvrir chaque coffre (intéressant) au moins 3h d’attente à moins d’utiliser des cristaux pour aller plus vite. Le jeu en offre une quarantaine gracieusement que vous dépensez très rapidement pour espérer faire monter votre équipe de niveau. Bref, pour jouer, faut payer … et vite. D’autres jeux du même genre existent sans mobiliser aussi rapidement votre portefeuille. Dommage ! 3 étoiles pour les programmeurs, 0 pour le modèle. Je désinstalle. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2024-02-18* Love the game the characters leveling up and the puzzles. Keep up the great work devs ### 5/5 — Roue de la fortune *2023-08-25* Super jeu de match 3 avec tout un environnement entraînant. Seul bémol, leur roue de la fortune est surtout un piège à pub, mais difficile de leur en tenir rigueur pour un jeux gratuit ### 3/5 — Great potential! *2023-03-18* But a lot of negative factors made me uninstall it. The gameplay is much too slow. Unlocking the second tier chest (silver) takes 3 hours, really? And then you’re bombarded with “you won’t earn any chests if you battle someone!” every time you try to battle. The third negative factor is the the fact that there is no solo player mode (I realize it may be different if I had leveled up more, but at a lot of gold spending and being at level 4, there was no other mode besides pvp). And the fourth negative factor is the very restrictive character unlocking. You can only draw specific characters until you go up in the arena. This gives me no incentive to continue drawing characters! ### 1/5 — Thieves *2022-12-15* Payed a couple bucks because I liked the game. It updated then wouldn’t open. I had to delete and download it again. All progress lost. ## Frequently asked questions about Puzzle Brawl ### What is Puzzle Brawl - Match 3 RPG?
