### 3/5 — Needs A Game Over Notification

*2022-11-19*

Game is fun, but it needs a notification when there aren’t any more moves.

### 4/5 — Nice game but overly simple

*2022-11-17*

You tap the same color blocks and they merge together until there’s none left. There’s an option to change the squares into shapes. Wish there was more to it though— like different levels or themes or something to make it more interesting.

### 3/5 — Great Game!

*2019-10-15*

This is a great game and I’m addicted to it. But I agree it needs an undelete feature. I would also like statistics and the ability to select the play level.

### 4/5 — SameGame

*2018-01-12*

Sympa mais compliqué pour les débutants

### 3/5 — SameGame

*2012-05-09*

Bon jeu Manque information quand le jeu est terminé

### 4/5 — Good game

*2011-09-27*

Good game however it needs a new mode for the chance to see how good a score you can get in only one frame

Also whenever you click a brick it should tell you how much score it is worth, there should also be an undo button

### 3/5 — 中毒が再発します

*2010-07-11*

だめです！
見つけてしまいした。
忘れていたのに。
ああ。

### 2/5 — Good not great.

*2009-09-10*

I still feel like there are some improvments that need to be made. The audio is amazing but the sound effects are a bit lacking. 

I love the simplicity of the UI but I feel like the game doesn't help you along enough. How about telling me when there are no more moves left.

Overall v2.0 is a huge improvment, but I think it is still lacking in several areas.

### 4/5 — Awesome app!

*2009-09-04, version 0*

Very simple and minimalistic game.

### 3/5 — Pick up and play anytime.

*2009-08-18*

This game is a simple yet well designed game. Easy to pick up and play on the go, made the way all iPhone games should be made.

### 4/5 — A good game.

*2009-08-06*

Well done game, not really my cup of tea but still interesting and challenging for casual gamers like myself.

### 4/5 — Improved, but not there yet.

*2009-08-06*

SameGame 2.0 is a very big improvement from 1.0. However, it is still lacking a MAJOR feature. An undo button.

### 1/5 — Can’t play for long

*2019-07-02*

Thought it worth a try because of positive reviews. I have already several versions of this game and have spent countless hours playing. This version is my least favourite. The visual presentation and lack of options, make it very hard on the eyes. Very difficult to apply any strategy and after a short time I started to feel ill just looking at it. Really surprised how it got positive reviews.

### 1/5 — IPhone Crashed rebooted by itself in the middle of play

*2012-03-03, version 2.0.5*

Wish I read reviews first

### 1/5 — do not buy

*2012-02-04*

I really should have listened to the reviews. UI is pleasing to the eye, but that is the only positive thing I can say. there is no "game over". when you run out of moves, you just sit there waiting for something to happen. it leaves much to be desired. total waste of money. DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — ESTA APLICACION APARECE EN APPS GRATIS A COSTE 0 EUROS

*2011-10-19, version 2.0.5*

Estimados señores, esta aplicación la ¿compré? en apps Gratis, en la que efectivamente aparecía el precio que me han cobrado, pero inmediatamente después del precio marcado,  aparecía la el  término GRATIS, entendiendo, que efectivamente la aplicación bajada a mi terminal era GRATIS como así aparecía en dicha aplicación.
NO ENTIENDO COMO EN UNA APLICACION DE USTEDES, LA INFORMACIÓN ES TAN ERRONEA.
un saludo

### 1/5 — Not for the color blind

*2011-10-11, version 2.0.5*

I can't really play it since the colors are too much alike for me. The developers need to check out what others have done to assist the color challenged.

### 1/5 — SameGame Boring

*2011-01-10, version 0*

Not worth any money.

### 1/5 — stupid

*2010-04-09*

I can only mirror what others have said.  There is no point to this game.  I want my money back.  While the UI is very nice, the game itself is stupid.

As others have said, there is no game over, you click new game and start all over again while adding to the score.

Awful awful game that's a huge rip off.  DO NOT BUY THIS!

### 1/5 — Disappointment

*2009-10-30, version 0*

I love the same game. But this app is terrible. The scoring system is awful and overall it is simply a badly made app. Don't waste your money.

### 1/5 — Slow

*2009-08-11, version 0*

This game made my whole phone slow and crash quite often I guess I wasted two dollars   Oh well can't win em all

### 1/5 — Where's the UNDO???

*2009-07-29, version 0*

This game is useless without an "undo" feature! There is also no score board, so you can see how you are ranking! Don't bother with it!

### 5/5 — Fun, simple game

*2025-09-03*

Just double-tap to clear 2 or more of same color squares. I wish the app could be resized bigger on Mac — it’s a bit small on my big screens.

### 5/5 — Very, very  simple version

*2019-12-30*

I had another version of same game for my computer years ago that I enjoyed more

### 5/5 — Great Game!!

*2015-01-07*

I love playing this game. The App is perfect, no issues. Just easy-no hassle fun.

### 5/5 — A work of art: from a design and concept viewpoint!

*2009-12-26*

Addicting. Fun. Beautiful.

### 5/5 — Awsome game

*2009-08-18*

I've played for hours and hours. So simple, but so addictive! LOVE the new version, keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — nice fun

*2009-08-16, version 0*

simple and fun, great for waiting rooms :D

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2009-08-05*

Highly addictive game, pop the squares and get a score enough said

### 5/5 — Dead simple, the way it should be

*2009-08-05*

This game is very fun because of its simplicity. It's beautiful, doesn't get in the way, and just works. My only suggestion is that the game should tell you when you run out of pieces. Definitely a great game for just a couple bucks.

### 5/5 — No sleeping :)

*2009-08-05*

Wanna stay up at night playing some game ? I can't sleep because of this one, so you know what you should do... Buy it :)

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2009-08-05*

Don't be fooled by the reviews from v1, SameGame v2 is a great game. Simple, but fun. There area few things that would make it even better. First, it needs and undo button. It should also have a notification to tell you when you have no more moves left. Other than those few things though, this is a really fun game.
