### 4/5 — Enjoyable but where’s the new levels?

*2026-06-19, version 1.2.10*

It’s a nice and mostly gentle game that’s a good time filler but there hasn’t been any new levels for ages which is a real shame. Come on Netflix, you promise new levels so how about delivering on that promise? In the meantime it remains frustratingly tedious with only a couple of challenge games repeatedly offered but lacking any real variation. It wouldn’t be so bad if you could reset the game and start again but that’s not an option either.

### 2/5 — Glitchy and crashes often, but still conveniently uses up your resources

*2026-04-23, version 1.2.9*

This game is fun and it better be--we pay way too much $$$ for it. Don't forget, Netflix is raising prices again. This game crashes way too often and can be very frustrating. I guess that's the sacrifice you make having no ads. As a member since the early 2000s of mailing DVDs and rearranging my list, I'm finally considering being one of those "cancel and re-up when a show I like premieres" people.

### 4/5 — Great Match-3.. BUT

*2025-11-21, version 1.2.7*

I really like this match-3, lots of different power-ups and other gimmicks, but the stages with the clouds that respawn are frustrating, exhausting and just not fun at all. I cringe every time I see them!

Otherwise, great game!

### 2/5 — Good game, but will trap you

*2025-08-19, version 1.2.7*

It feels like the game is cheating, giving you all the wrong shapes which constantly waste your moves, then ask for money to buy more features to beat a level. Got really far then just got stuck over and over until I was fed up with being screwed waiting for the right pieces to fall into place so I can beat the level.

### 2/5 — Repetitive then abruptly ends!

*2025-08-18, version 1.2.7*

Not difficult but poorly engineered so that combining power ups doesn't always work. 1500 levels all practically the same. I now have to wait for more levels (probably no different to the previous 1500) but based on the fact that the last update was 9 months ago I doubt that's going to happen anytime soon.

### 3/5 — Great for a while

*2025-01-16, version 1.2.7*

Great for a while but becomes too hard to be fun. Stupidly hard for a casual game. Deleted.

### 4/5 — Need more instructions

*2024-12-29, version 1.2.7*

Game is simple enough but as you progress a few simple instructions would be helpful.  In some instance I won a level and was not sure how I did it.

### 3/5 — Fun, but colorblind mode desperately needed

*2024-12-01, version 1.2.7*

This is great up until level 151 where the game introduces a bomb mechanic that uses color-only to indicate type, while up to that point it is color+shape.  Devs need a few color-challenged people on staff.  Unfortunately, this game is unplayable past level 150 for me and ~8% of all males.

### 2/5 — Automatic suggestions can’t be turned off

*2024-09-05, version 1.2.6*

If you don’t make a match within 2 or 3 seconds , the game automatically highlights available matches. You can’t turn that off so basically instead of a game this app is just one long tutorial. What’s the point if the app always tells you what move to make?

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2024-06-07, version 1.2.6*

I’ve been playing the same level for four days and I can’t beat it. I’ve played a lot of match games before, but this one is ridiculous. I’m deleting it and finding a different one.

### 2/5 — Nice game but frustrating

*2024-01-24, version 1.2.6*

There is a point where the games become super impossible and the players feel exhausted to continue trying. This is a game to relax, not a game with a purpose to resolve world issues. At least make the number of tries per game reasonable.

### 3/5 — Newest release haptics need a shutoff!!!

*2023-11-03, version 1.2.6*

I love the game, and I was actually excited to finish it soon when they added levels. Problem is, they added haptics to the latest release and I cannot turn them off. This makes me less likely to play as it makes it annoying to others around me, especially when spouse is asleep.

### 1/5 — ANTICLIMACTIC

*2023-09-27, version 1.2.5*

Are you $*#?! kidding me?? 
I have been playing for months and just beat all 950 levels of this game. What happens when you beat THE ENTIRE GAME you ask? Absolutely NOTHING. It’s the same congrats message that happens when you beat any other level.. then it just says “More levels are coming soon. Replay from the beginning to get more stars”… are you SERIOUS? I played almost 1000 levels of this game just to get told to go back to the beginning? Can’t even manage some extra confetti graphics or something?? Absolute garbage.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Fun not included

*2026-08-03, version 1.2.10*

Seems they’ve found a way to make a match three game and remove any sense of fun. The game ends up being a chore despite many examples of other games in the genre that have made the formula much more entertaining. 

Seems more a cash grab than a well intentioned design.

### 1/5 — Game is Rigged! Beware!

*2026-03-31, version 1.2.9*

The game is completely rigged and unfair. Behavior of objects change in order for you to lose. Vertical and horizontal bomb blasts change to favor the game! Blank spots won’t fill with objects to match,  forcing you to lose. Beware!

### 1/5 — Awful game

*2026-03-11, version 1.2.9*

Been playing this for about a week now and I am yet to enjoy it. The game is boring, drains energy and some levels are impossible. Hate the game. Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — Thinking

*2025-12-16, version 1.2.8*

I thought it was great till I realized how hard “ almost impossible “ the higher lvls. But most of all the power ups are greatly needed and the game is extremely cheap with them. 600 gold no more a max of 5 of each special the fact you can’t have more then one of them in a very hard lvl. When a game is made this difficult it defeats  an escape and becomes REAL life. If it’s not pay to win it’s so hard you want to break something. It shouldn’t be stressful but due to this will uninstall without a blink

### 1/5 — Update Issue

*2025-12-09, version 1.2.8*

The latest update now has on screen elements for the 16 Pro Max going off the screen in the rounded corners and hidden behind the Dynamic Island. Makes it very difficult to see necessary information.

### 1/5 — Poor execution

*2025-05-14, version 1.2.7*

Game starts out Ok..but becomes more luck and grinding as you get to higher levels. Don’t waste your time on this one….there are much better games out there in this genre….shame that Netflix couldn’t do better

### 1/5 — Meh…

*2024-10-16, version 1.2.6*

This game was clearly built to use micro transactions and be addictive. Some levels require the use of power ups and are impossible to beat without them using only skill.

### 1/5 — Makes me want to smash my phone

*2024-10-06*

This game will ruin your mental health. Some levels are so infuriating it’s unreal. Most annoying game I have played. Some special events, like those where you start on the first level again, you will usually get a level which is so bad that you will lose lots of goes on forced moves. Hate the game.

Having to delete my Netflix account just to get rid of my data. Hate it.

### 1/5 — violates ios settings

*2024-08-29, version 1.2.6*

Even with all sounds and haptics off, it still manages to activate a ton of haptics on every match. There’s no way to play this game on silent. I’m surprised this is even allowed.

### 5/5 — Strategic frustrating fun!

*2026-03-02, version 1.2.9*

### 5/5 — Love this game!

*2023-10-27, version 1.2.6*

I love this game and I’m so happy new levels have been added. Once I hit level 950 and realized there were no more, I was so sad. I’m so happy and I came back and opened the app 2 days later, and boom— NEW LEVELS!! Yay! Thanks so much for a great gaming experience!

### 5/5 — Love it ❤️

*2023-01-16, version 1.2.1*

This game is so cool.  Honestly, it is very addictive.  Love the adventure style of the game.  You actually fight the bad guys to get treasure or things.  It is so fun to see the enemy’s bar go down.  The music is nice and the good guys characters are nice.  I am having a blast with this awesome game.👍

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2023-01-16, version 1.2.1*
