### 1/5 — Pop up ads are death

*2024-02-04, version 2.1*

Waste! Pop up ads trick you into tapping on them. Horrible.

### 1/5 — Love the game but the devs need to fix this

*2021-03-01, version 2.1*

“Thatotherguy105” got every single time on the same day and no matter which type of puzzle, he got the record 1 second. This is not only impossible, but obvious that he was cheating. His scores have been there for years

### 5/5 — Great Game!

*2021-01-30, version 2.1*

I play all the time when I’m bored and can play for hours!

### 3/5 — Decent

*2020-09-01, version 2.1*

As far as I know there are no sliding puzzle apps on the App Store that generate random-state scrambles - this one is no exception. However of all the apps I've tried this one has the best interface, with the tap controls you can make moves very quickly and the app looks fine. With a random-state scrambler this would be fantastic but for now it's still the best of the 20 or so apps I tried.

### 1/5 — This is a 9 puzzle, not 15

*2020-08-28, version 2.1*

This is a 9 puzzle, not a 15 puzzle. By default the game started in a 3 by 3 configuration. I did not see a setting which would allow me to change to a 15 puzzle configuration. August 2020.

### 3/5 — I liked it for a long time but...

*2020-01-06, version 2.1*

At a certain point there is no more challenge because it doesn’t score you based on the difficulty of the random setup, only the number off moves to complete. Some setups easy, some much harder, obviously.

### 5/5 — Best sliding puzzle game

*2019-12-02, version 2.1*

I got an itch for a 15-puzzle sliding game and tried a few. This one has the most responsive controls and excellent options - different sizes, several trophies, leader boards, puzzle from photo (and choice to “tile-ize” the pieces). Everything just works, it’s very smartly designed. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great game, great humor

*2019-09-24, version 2.1*

Great game, and I love the description where you added ads 😅

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2019-08-04, version 2.1*

I loves that it has four different levels. The ads are present, but aren’t annoying or for stupid games and are mostly over with in five seconds. 

I don’t know what the creator of this game was thinking. The easiest level is by far the hardest, and the expert level is the easiest though takes a while to complete.

### 4/5 — Love it!

*2019-06-30, version 2.1*

I like how there are different tiles and levels, but hate the ads, If you put ads in less frequently, I would rate this 5 stars.
