I suggested you listen to your people on here and take in consideration how us players feel. I would pay $10.00 for not having any adds, I bet others would too. You would make money and get more subscribers instead of pissing people off. Hope you fix it. ### 3/5 — Glitch *2025-03-08* I’ve been playing for years but recently a glitch happens. I can download the game and play but if I close it and come back it won’t open fully just opening screen and then it’s gone. Running on a 4 yr old iPad ### 3/5 — Love game but buying crystals not working *2024-06-07, version 2.17* Love this game fun and challenging have tried to buy crystals , money was taken from my bank three times and no crystals, please can you help ### 2/5 — Ads *2023-07-18, version 2.16* How do you stop these terrible ads that keep coming on never used to be this bad ### 1/5 — This WAS a favorite game *2023-06-30* Like many others, I've played all three versions of this game and really enjoyed them for years. Now updates bring constant annoying ads! Totally changed from a challenging but fun game to something I don't want to play anymore. Ads are annoying, disruptive, and a game killer. Great way to lose longtime players. ### 2/5 — So long rainbow web III *2023-06-30* This was a great game but now the developer has started inserting ads in EVERY play. You can’t even see how many points you won in the level until you watch an ad. I would gladly pay for no ads in a one time fee but the game has been ruined. Also, other than the ads the game hasn’t been updated in years. Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — Broken *2023-01-10, version 2.13* App is broken. The cavern stops working and there is NO APP SUPPORT because the link sends users to a 404 error page. Don’t bother with this one. ### 1/5 — Ruined *2023-01-03, version 2.13* I’ve played this game for years, but the newest update ruined it. It won’t go past a certain point anymore. I can’t even get to the next step, it just continues to play the same board over and over, and only adds up points, I can’t even redeem them for anything anymore. ### 3/5 — исправьте *2022-10-06* Привет! Дайте ссылку на предыдущую версию! Хватит обновлять! После обновления не работает. **Developer response:** Здравствуйте. На каком устройстве вы играете? Мы делаем все возможное для борьбы с крашами и стараемся минимизировать их. Спасибо за отзыв. ### 1/5 — You’ve ruined the game *2022-04-06* The player should be able to choose whichever tool he wants to use to get out of a situation. But the game only allows you to either choose to eliminate all colors or clear the board it’s not fair you should be able to choose put all three up there with the hammer and let the person choose which one they want to use. The odds are you’d make more money **Developer response:** Hello. Your suggestion seems interesting, and we will definitely pass it on to our developers. The opinion of each player is valuable to us, and we are always working to make the game better and more exciting! Thank you for the exceptional ### 1/5 — No sound *2021-10-25, version 2.10* Sound and music don’t work. I have iphone 13 pro. Is there something I need to download or get? ### 3/5 — No support *2021-04-23* I loved this game. Yesterday I bought a 24 hr pass and lots of extra stuff. Today I completed the spider not knowing it was last screen. Id gladly replay earlier screens but doing so will delete all my in game purchases. There is no in game support link. The link in the ap store takes you to “page not found” developers name takes you to screen to purchase more games . I want my money back or screens to play. I have 0 ver 12 hours left on my purchased pass. ### 1/5 — Careful with purchasing *2021-02-06, version 2.10* If you make any purchase they disappear. Sad this was a decent game on pc. Now just a rip-off ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — WTH? *2026-05-29, version 2.20* Every time I complete the game I have to delete my progress to play the game again. THAT erases my purchase of “no more ads”. So in order to play this game more than once, I have to repurchase that feature EVERY TIME. I enjoy this game but am really sick of being ripped off. Way to screw the people who entrust you with their money. ### 1/5 — Ужас *2025-08-31* О какой энергии речь может идти если бывают моменты когда нету ходов и востонавления ее слишком долго а так вспомнила детство но и то первая была интереснее ### 1/5 — Not happy *2025-07-01* At one time, I was able to pay $2.99 for no ads. When I deleted my profile to start over, I lost my “no ads” status. Paying for no ads is no longer an option. Now I have to watch an ad after every level. I am annoyed enough to delete the app. It’s too bad, because this was once my favorite game. ### 1/5 — Loved this Game *2025-05-10* I love this game so much. Originally I would give it 5 stars. I have been playing off and on for about 16 years. Now, when I open the game it immediately shuts down and I can’t play at all. I have tried deleting it and reopening it and it just doesn’t open. Until it is fixed, reluctantly, I’m giving it 1 star. ### 1/5 — Исправьте *2025-04-07* Пожалуйста, вылетает после обновления! ### 1/5 — se ferme automatiquement *2025-03-06* l’application se ferme automatiquement depuis la dernière mise à jour ### 1/5 — Used to be a fan *2024-08-15* Purchased this almost 10 years ago if not longer. The original iteration of this game that is. Loading the game up only disgusts me now. The Game as it is now as simply a cash grab. I remember working on levels later in the game that took almost 40 minutes to complete because the certain color that you need to make a match would just never come up. And now they added limited moves so there’s some levels that would take forever to complete because you’ll never beat them in 25 or less or whatever the amount of moves you’re allowed to use. Unless you use power ups and power ups cost money once you run out. It’s sad really because this is a good game but greed ruined it. The game I paid for over a decade ago has been changed and is now worthless to me, thanks developer. ### 1/5 — This WAS a favorite game.DO NOT update yours! *2023-12-30, version 2.17* Like many others, I've played all three versions of this game and really enjoyed them for years. Now updates bring constant annoying ads! Totally changed from a challenging but fun game to something I don't want to play anymore. Ads are annoying, disruptive, and a game killer. Great way to lose longtime players. ### 1/5 — this game *2023-08-04, version 2.16* This game is such a stupid one not enough levels where in the heck do you get any more levels that is terrible ### 1/5 — This beautiful game is RUINED!! *2023-07-09, version 2.16* PLEASE FIX THIS GAME!! Either put up a new paid version or refund my original purchase! It’s simply unplayable now. I’d give it zero stars if I could. Forced ads on every single play. Wth?! WHAT A WASTE OF A BEAUTIFUL GAME. I’ve been playing since the original Rainbow Web was released. What happened to this game??? I’ve been playing it for years and all of a sudden it’s a completely different game! It’s horrible! What happened to the app I paid for previously? I loved this game the way it used to be. Can I get the old version back?💔 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Rainbow web 3 *2026-07-09, version 2.20* Have a question after the evil spider the game stops or ????? ### 5/5 — Game is fun *2024-01-05* Played many times , Beat all levels, deleted and started over, please upgrade and add more levels, January 5, 2024 ### 5/5 — Rainbow Web *2022-08-10, version 2.12* I absolutely love this game ! I just don’t understand why it can’t go on longer! I hate that there are never more levels. This is the 4th time I have come back to check and am always disappointed that there is never more.WJDgrandma ### 5/5 — Not fun since changed format *2021-01-12* Since this format was changed so that you have to “pay” now to get through it, I don’t play it anymore. I used to play it every single day, it was so much fun. I was told they were going to fix it so that if you paid for it before, it would be made to be able to play for free, but has not been done in months! I even still have my old 3g phone that I have the original Rainbow Web on, so I can still play it! S ### 5/5 — Love it! *2020-12-12, version 2.10* The final section was a bit of a bear ... but I got it eventually. I danced for joy when I did. Ready to start anew! ### 5/5 — Number of moves seems low for some puzzles *2020-12-01* Been playing for years through a few iterations of the game. Limiting the number of moves for each puzzle adds a layer of complexity and makes you plan your moves more but I find a few puzzles a bit stingy with the allowed moves. I think a casual setting without limited moves would be nice for those occasions when I just want a casual distraction. I always play on my phone and find that the small screen makes it difficult to find the broken pieces in the pictures between levels. ### 5/5 — Question *2020-11-07, version 2.10* I did the whole Town , is that it, it’s presenting a delete option, there isn’t any more Levels? Cathy ### 5/5 — Great game! *2020-06-24, version 2.10* Just do finished all levels. Really enjoyed this game. When is a new one coming? ### 5/5 — RainbowWeb *2020-04-24* This is very smart game and require logical framing of mind and surely force you to think in better way. ### 5/5 — Rainbow Web 3 *2019-12-30, version 2.04* So much fun!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
