Now it basically an ad. I open it up to watch the same Telus ad over and over without being able to close out. ### 3/5 — Ads block content *2023-12-17, version 2.0.7* Package 2 of the emoji section is unplayable because the ads and hot bar blocks the letters ### 2/5 — 太多廣告 *2022-04-16, version 2.0.5* 太多廣告 ### 3/5 — Would rate higher if I could pay to remove ads *2021-12-28, version 2.0.3* It’s a great set of games. I just wish I could use an in-app purchase to remove ads. ### 4/5 — Word Sears lame *2021-11-11, version 2.0.2* When playing the word search I’m not able to scroll down to see all of the words, that’s the only problem I’ve run into!! ### 3/5 — Word search is bugged *2021-03-25, version 1.9.0* On my iPhone 8, something is wrong with the UI because the list of words is cut off, and I can’t scroll down to see them. Besides the inability to play the word search, great collection of games to stave off boredom, if you take away the incessant ads. ### 3/5 — Kicks me off app *2021-01-30, version 1.8.9* This game was great until a few days ago. Now every time I open the app and click on a level it immediately kicks me off the app. ### 4/5 — Great game, but some levels are still broken *2021-01-21, version 1.8.8* I love this game. Very relaxing and challenging at the same time. My only complaint is that some levels remain busted even after many updates. For example, GET 24 Master level 102 (1, 1, 7, 12) is impossible. Hint says no answer. Online searches also say no answer. This hasn’t been fixed for almost a year. Other than that, great stuff ### 4/5 — Some kinks but fun *2021-01-06, version 1.8.8* Free cell is not synced to the score board. Sliding does not work anymore. This is one of my favorite apps to play multiple brain games. ### 3/5 — Just one gripe *2020-12-26, version 1.8.8* My kiddo and I love to play the game. However the ads on the word search make it impossible to see the last words you are supposed to be searching for. If the ad was in another spot, it’d be better. ### 2/5 — They have lost the quality control *2020-12-16, version 1.8.8* As example the latest addition “word search”, you can’t see the entire word list you just have to guess how many words there are and what the hidden words are. Maybe it’s that I’m on an iPhone 8 and they don’t design the game for such a small screen. ### 2/5 — Glitches *2020-10-01, version 1.8.4* I love some of the games in this app but there are so many glitches at never seem to get fixed. The unblock me game and two others shut the app entirely when you try to play them. The shape plus game completes before you even get the actual shape. Some games are great but it’s hard to ignore all the flaws ### 4/5 — solitaire is laggy *2020-07-31, version 1.8.3* solitaire is one of my favorite games on here, and i’ve noticed it has become very laggy. can you fix this? ### 5/5 — Love this game! *2020-06-16, version 1.8.1* I love this game! When I feel stressed the word searches, don’t cross, and other puzzles help me calm! This game is AWESOME!! I love all of the cool features on this game. Puzzle lover is great when it comes to a fun relaxing Ming game! I love this game:) ### 4/5 — Great games *2020-05-18, version 1.8.0* My only complaint is that it is a resource hog. It bogs down my phone and causes it it glitch. This happens only when I play Puzzle Lover games. Other than that, I love it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads *2023-01-17, version 2.0.6* I paid for this stupid game with no ads, please get rid of them ### 1/5 — Game is broken *2022-01-30, version 2.0.3* Emoji puzzle constantly crashes, bad translations overall, useless waste of time. Don’t bother making games if you’re going to do such a poor job. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2021-07-19, version 1.9.0* Terrible app. Nonstop ads. Unplayable ### 1/5 — 去除廣告的錢白花了？ *2020-09-10, version 1.8.3* 之前付費去除廣告 結果更新後廣告繼續來？ 鑽石也都消失了 ### 1/5 — Do not pay for ads *2020-02-18, version 1.7.5* Do not get this game it so boring and does not make sense at all and there are so many ads I am not going to pay 10.00 for no ads what the heck who does that i have payed that before and their was still ads ha really 10.00 do not pay for ads it’s the mast biggest rip off in the whole world like really 😤😡🙄 do not download please you will waste your space ### 1/5 — Too many mistakes *2020-02-16, version 1.7.5* At first there was a level in Get 24 that had no possible solution (I confirmed by trying to cheat online). They finally came around to fix it or get rid of it. And now there’s a level on Sokoban (Classic level 40) that does not have a solution. There are 11 boxes but only 10 spots for them. I filled those 10 spots but it won’t let you get past. I will have to use 40 diamonds to skip the level to get past. I wonder how many of these mistakes are there in other puzzles. ### 1/5 — Many bugs *2019-11-21, version 1.7.1* I’ve encountered quite a few bugs in this app. Mostly in the shape game. Also annoying that you can’t replay a level. ### 1/5 — Level of Get 24 has no answer. I’m stuck. *2019-11-15, version 1.6.9* Level 16 of Get 24 has no solution! I watched ads to get diamonds to get a hint, the hint said “no answer”. I looked up on Google how to get 24 with the numbers 4, 4, 6, and 7, and they said “we can find no solution”. What am I supposed to do?! Can’t play anymore because I can’t get past this level. ### 1/5 — Freecell is not working *2019-10-14, version 1.6.5* There are no instructions for the games, freecell isn’t working and has no tutorial. Just a terrible app overall ### 1/5 — Update broke FreeCell *2019-10-02, version 1.6.4* FreeCell appears to be broken in version 1.6.4 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I love puzzle odyssey *2025-11-28, version 2.0.8* I love this game so much! It helps me calm down. ### 5/5 — Amazing Puzzle Sets *2025-07-13, version 2.0.8* I originally got this app while I was in college to help pass the time between classes. From when I first got it to now, I have not been disappointed. Not even once. You have an amazing variety of games, puzzles, and challenges that incorporate some of the games I grew up with (solitaire, word searches) and new ones I’ve been wanting to try (unblock me, one line, hoops). The games have varying difficulties that keep things interesting, but are never so challenging that they feel impossible. Even the “challenges” (spider solitaire & og solitaire) have options to make them more difficult for when I want a challenge. This app is worth the ads you need to get through to unlock ad free. 100% It is my favorite app to use in my free time and I STRONGLY recommend it to anyone who likes puzzles :) ### 5/5 — Great variety *2023-04-05, version 2.0.6* This is a game that is more than well worth the download. There are a variety of puzzles, so there’s something for everyone. The difficulty increases with each level. Addictive, fun, challenging… GET IT!!!!!! ### 5/5 — Not cross *2022-01-04, version 2.0.3* At not cross recently the images are ugly and very different than your style. Just an ugly person can change that way . ### 5/5 — Amazing *2021-12-29, version 2.0.3* I think this game/ app is really fun especially if you are on a long road trip. There isn’t to many ads which I really like. My favorite game is the “ Not Cross”. I also really like the word search. And actually, I just got the game yesterday! I have been playing all the time ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2021-10-31, version 2.0.2* I love puzzles and this game is very fun ### 5/5 — A great place to be *2021-07-27, version 1.9.0* Puzzle lover allows me to relax and have a blast at leveling up. It’s a great place to get away from normal life, one big thumbs up for puzzles ### 5/5 — All the time *2020-10-24, version 1.8.5* I absolutely love this game I have been playing it for an hour straight 😍😍😍😍😍👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💙💙💙💙💙💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 The down side is there needs to be more modes ### 5/5 — Puzzle Lovers *2020-10-07, version 1.8.4* Excellent ### 5/5 — Super jeu *2020-06-30* Jeux très attractifs --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
