### 2/5 — The Ad App

*2026-08-27, version 1.2.25982*

Way too many Ads!!! Ruins it for me.  Deleted 🤷🏼‍♀️

### 1/5 — SHUT THE ADS!

*2026-07-01, version 1.2.25318*

I was really enjoying this game and the graphics are beautiful! Moments later the Ads started popping up right in the middle of the match! Then of course they try to force you to pay $19.99 to remove the ads forever. There’s quite a few “Shut The Box” games on the App Store that are completely free, no advertisements or very few, and they don’t take up a lot of space like this one does.  
When I find greedy, money hungry developers like this, I make sure NEVER to download any of their other games because they will all  be like this!

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-06-29, version 1.2.25318*

This game has way way way way too many ads interrupting every couple of moves.  The game would be fun, but no thanks……deleting because the ads every two moves is obnoxious.  Never had another game that has so many ads interrupting every a short period of time.  Are these guys nuts??????

### 1/5 — way too many ads

*2026-06-27, version 1.2.25318*

you spend more time watching ads than actually playing the game

### 1/5 — Can’t play for all the ads

*2026-06-27, version 1.2.25318*

Way too many adds.  So many you can’t play the game.  Do better.  Deleted game.  Don’t waste your time.  Horrible.

### 2/5 — Advertisement Overload

*2026-06-26, version 1.2.25318*

This game has wayyyyyy too many adds. 30 second ads for every two rolls is ridiculous. And the cost to get rid of ads isn’t worth the complexity of the game.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2026-06-26, version 1.2.25318*

Not working

### 1/5 — Dumb!

*2026-06-25, version 1.2.25318*

So many ads!!  It’s dumb!

### 1/5 — Shut the Box

*2026-06-23, version 1.2.25318*

Stopped working after three levels or so.  Very disappointing! :(

### 1/5 — Horrible & negative stars

*2026-06-23, version 1.2.25318*

The game stopped on the third level and never started again, even after opening and closing and re-downloading nothing changed

### 1/5 — Fun game BUT……

*2026-06-22, version 1.2.25318*

You will spend more time watching ads than actual play.

### 1/5 — Game is froze

*2026-06-21, version 1.2.25318*

I played one game and the next game tried to play it froze and can't get passed. I've restarted the game numerous times, deleted and reinstalled and still froze in same spot.

### 1/5 — Freezes

*2026-06-21, version 1.2.25318*

Don’t waste your time

### 1/5 — Ridiculous amount of ads

*2026-08-11, version 1.2.25982*

I understand everything is all about money nowadays and nothing else matters, but it’s just unfortunate that there’s an ad after every roll of the dice. I thought this would be a fun game to teach my 5 year old some math, but having to watch an ad every 10 seconds makes it worthless. I’ll just delete this and go buy the physical edition and not have to worry about ads. Problem solved.

### 1/5 — Deal Breaker

*2026-08-09, version 1.2.25982*

I would like this game if it had setting so I could turn off the sound.

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2026-07-28, version 1.2.25886*

The game stopped working. It says it’s my turn but nothing happens. I uninstalled and reinstalled but still doesn’t work

### 1/5 — It’s not even worth playing

*2026-07-24, version 1.2.25886*

You’re a big game with over 5 million people and you can’t do away with ads Without making us purchase no ads that’s pathetic

### 1/5 — App is totally broken

*2026-07-15, version 1.2.25886*

Played the game for ten minutes and now it’s frozen. Uninstalling/reinstalling it doesn’t help. Reported my concern. App is still frozen so I have permanently removed it from my phone.

### 1/5 — Too many ads DURING games

*2026-07-11, version 1.2.25886*

I understand the need for ads and can tolerate a few BETWEEN games but when ads keep popping up DURING games that is just OVER THE TOP!

Game deleted from my iPad😬

### 1/5 — Keeps freezing!

*2026-07-09, version 1.2.25886*

Keeps crashing and won’t let me advance after just two games.

### 1/5 — Bug!!!

*2026-07-07, version 1.2.25886*

When I open the game it starts, shows the box and won’t load/carry on after that. Please fix

### 1/5 — Frozen

*2026-07-05, version 1.2.25318*

The game was fun but when I got to round 3 the game froze I uninstalled and reinstalled the game and it’s still not working so I just deleted I tried

### 1/5 — Bug

*2026-07-04, version 1.2.25318*

Every time I load the game, Sophie and I do not have dice to play with. The box is just blank where the dice are supposed to be.

### 5/5 — Shut the box

*2026-07-21, version 1.2.25886*

The best game app ever

### 5/5 — Hello

*2026-07-12, version 1.2.25886*

Hello

### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-07-08, version 1.2.25886*

Thank goodness

### 5/5 — Perfect if your bored

*2026-06-04, version 1.2.25318*

Perfect if your bored take a brake work your brain! 😁😁😁

### 4/5 — Great game!

*2026-06-28, version 1.2.25318*

I don’t know why I’m seeing all these bad reviews about this app because of “too many ads” or “very long and annoying tutorial” but I like it! I don’t care about the ads or the tutorial, I just care about the quality of the app and how entertaining it is. The only problem is I don’t think it is multiplayer, which I wanted it to be, and I’m mostly playing against bots at the moment. Probably because I just downloaded it today, but other than that, it’s very addicting and worth it to try out! 😉

### 4/5 — The ad!

*2026-05-24, version 1.2.25318*

Why do I have to keep watching ads for a game I have already installed?

### 3/5 — Ads

*2026-08-04, version 1.2.25982*

Too many ads per game play, shouldn’t have game disrupted by  3 annoying ads every game

### 3/5 — Freezes my phone

*2026-07-18, version 1.2.25886*

I really like this game and the app is a lot of fun. BUT, every time I play it freezes up my phone and I end up having to shut my phone down and restart it. This is the only app that causes that to happen.

### 3/5 — Way to many ads

*2026-06-22, version 1.2.25318*

Game was fun, but all the ads ruined it. I don’t mind an ad after each round, but an after each roll of the dice is ridiculous. The game also froze a few times.

### 3/5 — Where is the dice

*2026-05-23, version 1.2.25318*

Good game but I played and it’s fine but now go to play it and there is no dice showing up so can’t play
