The adventures are fun, and while they’re fairly similar and repetitive, it doesn’t always feel that way. You just feel busy, and I like that a lot! Many games I’ve played tend to feel stale once they hit that point of repetition, but this game manages to mask it well enough. This is also probably the first puzzle game I’ve played where I’ve had more fun on the adventures (doing puzzles and scavenging) than building my character’s home/village. The graphics and animations are also adorable! Especially the little animals (fams) you can collect throughout the gameplay. About staff support: Whenever I’ve had issues they’ve been very supportive and generous. My issues have always been addressed, fixed, or made up for with gifts from the support team. I’ve personally never been dissatisfied with their help. Why it’s not perfect: Editing the home/village isn’t the easiest process. It’s quite tedious and there’s nothing to help the process move along any faster (when you’re trying to do a lot at once, like build fences or move buildings around). There’s also a lot of landscape (trees, bushes, etc) when you unlock new lands that will only disappear if you place an item over them. Otherwise, they’re always there. It can be cute either the smaller foliage, but sometimes there’s giant hillocks or groups of trees and there’s just no removing them unless you place an item on them (and then remove it if you want the space totally clear). Crafting items can also take a while, especially when crafting higher level items. It also makes decorating tedious because you have to pause every time you need more materials or items to craft more. Coloring items is a neat feature, but for repetitive items (like fencing) you have to color each individual piece, which means crafting a color potion for each piece you want colored (instead of one bottle coloring a line of connected fencing). Aside from decorating issues, the chat menu is a little weird to operate. It’s not hard to figure out but it isn’t the smoothest thing either. As for total gameplay, there isn’t much instruction so you have to figure out a lot on your own. It can get very confusing at times, but customer support has always been super helpful whenever I had questions. Overall: This is a really fun game!! Any issues I have are mostly unimportant, and more personal gripes than overall issues. I highly recommend this game, especially if you love puzzles and you’re looking for a game to relax and lose yourself in. ### 5/5 — Love this game!!! *2023-10-13, version 1.63* I love this game so much! It’s soo addictive! And the best part is that there aren’t any ads, which no one is really talking about. That right there is the best part and I hope they never get rid of! The only suggestion I have is to be able to leave the app and go back on without the puzzle you were doing closing out! ### 5/5 — TOO fun! i need my life back *2023-10-05, version 1.61* i downloaded this on a whim after seeing a cute instagram ad. i usually get bored with games easily but there’s just so much to do here! it’s kinda like animal crossing meets match 3 games but even better. some of the puzzles were a little confusing at first, but to be fair i did download it at like 2am so i might’ve not absorbed the whole tutorial. dw im fine now. would totally recommend ### 5/5 — Must get *2023-10-05, version 1.61* I love this game!! It was hard in the beginning but I made a friend from it and now it’s really easy and I love it ### 5/5 — I really enjoyed it! *2023-09-30, version 1.60* I like this game. Today I have played 6 hours. 🤣🤣 ### 5/5 — Why aren’t more people playing? *2023-09-21, version 1.60* There are so many fun facets of this game, it never gets old. There are puzzles, world building, live adventures with friends, quests, and pets…I just don’t understand why it’s not more popular. Teaming up with friends and guild mates is one of the best parts, it would be great if there were more players! ### 5/5 — I never review games but..⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ *2023-09-21* I am literally obsessed with this and I’ve only played for like a week. The gameplay is so diverse and structured in such a professional way, it legit feels like a Nintendo switch game and not a mobile game. I’m so so excited for future updates and new features!! I have my bestie hooked and we play together. Don’t waste any time and get this now ### 5/5 — Social puzzle solving at its best *2023-08-15, version 1.56* Having a lot of fun exploring the areas of this game. Especially like the graphics and friendly interactions with the other wizards. Important to pay attention to the introduction - and then have fun solving! ### 5/5 — Stay Smart *2023-08-14* Seniors, this puzzle game has so many benefits for us! The variety and increasing difficulty of the game and puzzles has improved my short term memory and spatial orientation abilities. The social aspect is also very important for us. I love meeting people from different places and with different viewpoints. Visiting other wizards villages helps me appreciate different styles and approaches. ### 5/5 — incredible *2023-06-24, version 1.47* finally figured out how to move buildings and i’m even more in love🤝🤝 ### 5/5 — LOVE *2023-06-20* don’t get me wrong i am actually addicted to this game, but i have just a couple irks that really aren’t all that bad. 1) i wish i could move the villager buildings after i’ve placed them, now that i’ve opened up more land, all of my buildings are huddled into one spot and it all just looks weird 2) going along with customization, i do with i could go back and change the features of my wizard, like, for example, if i dye my hair purple i’d like to reflect that on my wizard 3) random players from the party i just left will show up in my village without even being my friend first, idk if that’s on purpose or a bug or what lol that’s all! i do love this game and obviously it’s still in dev so i know it isn’t perfect yet but i know it will be soon enough. great job so far ### 5/5 — Top Rated! *2023-06-20, version 1.47* Excellent game! Feels very polished and well developed, runs very smoothly without bugs or glitches. ### 5/5 — You’ll never get bored! *2023-06-19, version 1.47* I am obsessed with how many different gameplay variations there are in this! You have to do something different to harvest, mix recipes, battle, etc. I get so bored with the match-3 games that are just the same thing over and over. It’s too repetitive. The variety in this one will keep me hooked for a LONG time, I can tell. ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2023-06-14, version 1.46* As a Puzzle Pirates vet I am so happy to see more from this team of awesome people. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Español *2024-02-04* La aplicación no está en español solo en inglés eso es injusto ### 1/5 — really cute but not working on iphone *2023-09-11* my phone is fully updated and everything for some reason it stays stuck on the opening screen it just says prickly woods and loads forever and ever. i tried it on my computer and it works fine tho ### 2/5 — Needs more *2024-01-02, version 1.73* This game is so much fun, but the lack of information & hep is frustrating. You spend more time trying to figure out game details instead of actually enjoying the game play. Add some tutorials, hints, tips. Something! This could be a 5 star game if it weren't so hard to figure out. Seems like a new game, hopefully they fix the bugs, there's a lot, and upgrade it to be more game player friendly! ### 3/5 — Cute game but staff was unprofessional *2023-07-21, version 1.52* Started the game off and I really enjoyed it, with all of my iOS games, I stick to the same username because I think it’s funny and it’s not crazy inappropriate. Second day, I log on, and my name has been changed, I reported it as a bug and honestly forgot about it. Then I got a message from a staff member, that was in part, kind of rude. They explained the name change wasn’t a bug and they wrote that it wasn’t appropriate, and would write remarks in parentheses like “(I thought that was obvious)”. In the end, they said I could change it with an in-game method (that needs rarer items by the way), and ultimately recommended I don’t try the same name again. All together it just put a bad taste in my mouth. I get it, it’s your vision, and if you don’t want usernames like that, for sure, but why not just put in a name filter like other iOS games or at least give that person an opportunity to change to something they want that fits your guidelines. I honestly wouldn’t be writing this review had the staff just been nicer about it, it’s a good game, and that interaction just made me want to delete it and take my patronage somewhere else. ### 3/5 — Super fun game but it’s unfair *2023-06-10, version 1.46* I honestly love the premise of this game. It doesn’t get boring and there’s always something to do. However I absolutely hate that anyone can just come and pick up the items that you earned. Even if you used your own items to unlock the world. I’m not a big fan of multiplayer games as it is but the fact that after completing a challenging puzzle some random can come take what you earned is infuriating ### 4/5 — Had low expectations, but it’s actually pretty solid. *2023-10-08, version 1.62* Only one complaint! …how long do you think days are? Because I keep losing my streak randomly after like 8-10 hours. Lol. I definitely play everyday. Solid game though! I think I’ll stick around for a while. ### 4/5 — So much fun, but a couple suggestions *2023-07-21, version 1.52* This game is honestly what other matching games are trying to be. There is enough variety of game types and things to do that it will take a while before you get bored! I really only have a couple suggestions that would make it almost perfect. I really wish it didn’t completely disconnect from whatever puzzle you are playing just from closing your screen. I’ve done it a few times on accident or there have been times I’ve needed to put my phone down for a sec, and I end up having to start over whatever puzzle I’m on, even if I never left the app. I don’t know if it’s something to do with the server but I wish it would save my progress in a puzzle when I open my phone again. I also wish I could play other audio while playing the game. I usually mute game audio/background music for apps on my phone so I can listen to music or a podcast while playing but for some reason no matter what I try whatever I’m listening to will turn off when I open the app, even if I press play while still in the game. Thanks for the great game! ### 5/5 — One of the best! *2026-06-10, version 1.118* This is hands down one of the best games I’ve had on my phone, they don’t have ads and this app seems to attract the friendliest people. I love how the develops encourage kindness and community in the game. You get to have your own wizard village and go on adventures with other players and everything is done via unique puzzles that don’t take over the whole overall gameplay. I’ve been playing for around 3 years and it’s so relaxing for me. Would highly recommend. ### 5/5 — WOW ITS AMAZING *2026-05-13, version 1.118* THIS GAME IS SO FUN. It’s so cozy and cute, the matching is fun, unique, and challenging enough to keep you busy for ages! And the social community is honestly fantastic. Customization of your character, home, cute animal npcs, and super clean UI that helps minimize confusion (there is sooo much stuff in the game it’s crazy how well they were able to implement it all without being insanely overwhelming)! I’m incredibly happy with this game and I really hope more people decide to pick it up and enjoy it!! ### 5/5 — Underrated Game *2025-08-04, version 1.111* I love the different puzzles and how there's so much variation. The vibe is also so spectacular, this game really gives a magical vibe!! However, one thing that can be improved if we can have some sort of guide on each of the puzzles. Although there is already a feature to reset the tutorials, I feel like it would be better if there is a guide to look at to have a better understating of the puzzles. For example, I still don't get how to remove the poison during mixing and would love a guide on it! ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best game ever( to me) *2024-11-09, version 1.103* Such a good game I love this game might be the best one yet! Really recommend this game if you like to play with your friends…or by yourself! ### 5/5 — LOVE *2024-10-11* so so fun i love it so much it’s super cute and the community is so kind and helpful and it’s fun and relaxing <3 ### 5/5 — Love it *2024-09-05, version 1.95* Easy to learn and fun to play! ### 5/5 — Super cute and fun! *2024-06-30, version 1.92* Very cute game and lots of fun puzzles that you can work with friends on! ### 5/5 — For me, please include Thai. *2024-05-22, version 1.87* I adore this puzzle and adventure game. ### 5/5 — Brain Food *2023-11-07* An engaging game with a lot of depth. Easy to get started with a friendly atmosphere and lots of variety. My old brain is expanding with every puzzle! 5 🪄! ### 5/5 — LOVE IT but I have Crashing Issues *2023-10-29, version 1.64* I am absolutely in love with this game! I have had the game crash a lot recently but I still adore the game so much! The guilds are great and the Halloween event is so fun. There is a lot of ways to customize your town and the fams are sooo cute. I think it would be cool if you earned some kind of guild bonds for yourself based on how much you earn for the guild. That way we could make dyes and such without needing the help of someone higher up in the guild. I can’t wait to see what other furniture and clothing items they come up with! I am addicted to decorating 😂 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
