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. ### 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! ### 3/5 — Поломка *2022-12-10* Все было хорошо, довольно таки не плохая игрулька. Но последние 2 дне не грузится. Нигде ничего не написано. **Developer response:** Пожалуйста, свяжитесь с нами по адресу support@puzzlebrawl.freshdesk.com, чтобы мы могли лучше помочь вам ### 2/5 — Ads *2022-09-28* Good puzzle game, I have no doubt about that. But the ads ruined the game. I can understand the developers can make profit from the ads, however, recently so many ads are nearly 1 min and cannot skip!!! You must be kidding me!!! 15 to 30 secs ads can be tolerated, but 1 min is excessive! Totally ruined the experience for the game. ### 3/5 — Баг!!!! *2022-08-07* Нет текста в игре , Исправте пожалуйста 🙏 ### 4/5 — Сундуки!!! *2022-06-11* Очень долго открываются сундуки, это раздражает ### 4/5 — Почините *2022-04-06* Не заходит в игру после обновления от 06.04.2022. А в целом игра норм👍🏻 ### 3/5 — Иван spoon *2022-04-06* Быстрее сделайте все как было,не вылетало из игры до последнего обновления,исправьте работу игры пожалуйста,вылетает по прежнему ### 3/5 — Played for a bit more than a week and was disappointed *2022-02-26* I found the game enjoyable in the first few days. Different cards with different strategies caught me up. And spent some money on it to get few cards. But after you reach to some point, you will find that this game is actually another pay to win game... and you need to spend a lot for grinding the card level. In order to level up a card you would need to collect multiple same card. Waiting for the crests to be opened by itself is just too long. So... go figure. ### 2/5 — Poorly balanced *2022-01-06* I sunk some money and time into this game but I had to delete it today. This game is poorly balanced and the developers do not seem interested in balancing or supporting the game as they should. They seem more interested in putting in as many battle passes and ways for you to buy chests than they are in the actual game. I see the same characters in the same battles over and over again, yeah they advertise 50 characters but you are only going to see the same five or six over and over again. There’s also some sort of measure put in place where you will lose to a team with the exact same composition as yours that is 1000 points lower rating because they want you to level up and buy more chests. It all seems very geared towards making you buy more and more in order to keep up and I just can’t do it anymore. I would strongly encourage you to look into other games that are much better supported and balanced. I gave it one more star because I do think the battle passes are good value, that’s about it though. ### 5/5 — おもしろい *2021-12-26, version 1.3.10* 不要なカードを 売却及び交換できるといいな♫^_^ ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Game is dying *2024-09-08* Le jeu se meurt. 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 ### 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. ### 1/5 — Not worked *2022-12-13* After last 2 updates : game is not started . We lost me . Bye ### 1/5 — App crashes with new update *2022-12-08* Please fix **Developer response:** Please contact us at support@puzzlebrawl.freshdesk.com so we can better assist you. ### 1/5 — Овно *2022-11-23* С 5 на 6 арену тебе не будут хватать 1 выиграша, или несколько очков, но ты их будешь зарабатывать несколько часов. ### 1/5 — Pessimo gioco *2022-07-25* Pessimo gioco, non permette alcuna interazione con gli avversari, gli avversari stessi sono per lo più bot, matchmaking randomico che non tiene alcun conto di trofei o livelli delle carte e del giocatore e infine partite scriptate che ti portano alla disperazione dove l’avversario becca ogni match possibile delle tessere ad ogni turno. Unico pro la grafica e le animazioni, che lo rendono passabile. Conclusione, piuttosto giocate ad altro E se volete migliorare il gioco vi do un consiglio, cancellatelo dall’App Store ### 1/5 — Didn’t receive full advertised purchase *2022-03-21* I sent an email to support@ and no response. Attempted to sign up with their help desk, but their sign up just goes in circles. I was an avid supporter, but a recent purchase didn’t fulfill 100% of what was advertised. I only received 1 card instead of 3. Just lost a customer. ### 1/5 — Where is Chinese? *2021-11-18* Where is Chinese language ### 1/5 — 頑張れ *2021-09-23, version 1.3.7* 攻撃チームと防衛チームのデッキくらいは分けて設定できたほうがいい。 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Add more updates and improvements *2025-04-30* Add more updates and improvements ### 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 ### 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 ### 5/5 — Muy muy bueno *2022-12-02* Existen juegos buenos y arriba de ellos esta este juego ### 5/5 — 👍👍👍 *2022-06-24* Отлично ### 5/5 — Top *2022-04-16* Gg ### 5/5 — Заработало *2022-04-06* Странно, но спустя полдня, заработало!🙌 что это было?!
