### 2/5 — The ads for coins are a waste of your time

*2026-08-18, version 4.13.10*

You will watch and add for more coins just for it too finish and not be able to close the ad. Which means you won’t get any coins.

### 2/5 — Excessive ads

*2026-08-18, version 4.13.10*

Love the game, so original. BUT adverts between games have got longer and longer, wasting 2 minutes or more (RK). Prefer to play other games with 30 second ads. Sorry!

### 4/5 — 4.5 stars

*2026-08-17, version 4.13.10*

Best game when u have free time and when u don’t have wifi

### 3/5 — There really should be

*2026-08-16, version 4.13.10*

A large penalty for not playing a wild tile if you have one. If you draw one by chance and an opponent wins out that’s the breaks. But hogging them is lame and one should be punished. 50 or 100 points.

### 4/5 — Annoying to play against bots

*2026-08-15, version 4.13.10*

Every time I think I’m about to win, a bot with about 20 pieces lays all of them, and it makes me lose every time… I’ve honestly given up with this game

### 2/5 — Was good but now disappointing

*2026-08-15, version 4.13.10*

Good game - have been playing this game, off and on, for years, but it would appear they have fewer and fewer ‘real’ players as, more often than not, I seem to be playing bots rather than real people. As a result it is now a bit disappointing.

### 3/5 — Ads 8-9-2026

*2026-08-09, version 4.13.10*

If I now have to watch a TWO MINUTE ad, I expect 20k coins.

### 2/5 — Way too many long ads

*2026-08-06, version 4.13.10*

And it doesn’t make sense that you have to go last every time since that isn’t really how the game is played

### 5/5 — An exciting game

*2026-08-06, version 4.13.10*

I recommend you play it

### 3/5 — ADs are getting ridiculous

*2026-08-04, version 4.13.10*

It takes as many as 6 or 7 clicks to get out of an AD. And each AD has a different combo of Xs you have to hit in just the right sequence. Much as I like the game, I am getting exasperated enough to just quit due to the AD format!

### 5/5 — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2026-08-03, version 4.13.10*

💛

### 1/5 — Not fun - Bot always wins

*2026-08-18, version 4.13.10*

I thought this game would be a good way to practice when I am not playing humans. Ut’s not. The boy seems to always be able to put down most of it’s tiles and quickly rearrange the everything. Then when it is my turn I barely have enough time to figure out what has been done before my turn is over!! Not fair. Algorhythm needs adjusting!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-08-17, version 4.13.10*

The adds glitches until you literally have to leave the game to actually play. When you are playing a tournaments, they force you to wait until almost 28 tiles for you to finally get to 30 points (bc wild tiles are non existent) while everyone else actually plays the game. Plus some times you never touched randomly slip mid play and gives you an error message?!?!

### 1/5 — Help

*2026-08-15, version 4.13.10*

Tried to use 3   #12 tiles to open. They kept splitting apart and “board is invalid “ kept coming up.

### 1/5 — Watching videos rarity gives coins

*2026-08-13, version 4.13.10*

Watching videos rarity gives coins

So watching the ads is a waste of time.   The app stopped giving daily coins for use complete

### 1/5 — Bots

*2026-08-13, version 4.13.10*

This app’s bots are impossible to play against which makes this version of the game extremely frustrating. The level of bot speed does not mimic what a human is capable of doing in a term making it nearly impossible to win. Fix your software.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2026-08-13, version 4.13.10*

You play a computer and barely ever win. It’s frustrating and people take forever to make a move

### 1/5 — Broken game: Doesn’t work & is filled with ads

*2026-08-10, version 4.13.10*

Not only does the free version inject minutes of ads repeatedly, the game isn’t even functional. It won’t let you place tiles next to each other, it separates them on the board then gives you an error sound when you try to play.

Broken game, do not buy

### 1/5 — Practice mode is no good

*2026-08-08, version 4.13.10*

Even on the easiest difficulty, the practice mode bots are harder than any human I have played with. Do not recommend

### 1/5 — Ruined a great game with cheesy ads

*2026-08-04, version 4.13.10*

You guys took a popular game and cheapened it with cheesy broken ads. Just make it a paid game and get rid of the coins and stop doing ads. Half the ads dont actually can an “x” after you watch it so you have to click on the banner and go to App Store.

### 1/5 — Buggy and exploitative

*2026-08-03, version 4.13.10*

Most annoying app in the world. I’m constantly needing to delete and reinstall to overcome bugs, and the ads are an absolute joke.

### 5/5 — Cure my cancer

*2026-08-12, version 4.13.10*
