The ads are ridiculous. Theres one for a game that you can’t click out of for like two minutes. I would pay for this game, please consider that option. ### 3/5 — Used to be better *2025-01-16, version 1.1.9* This is a great relaxing game and I used to really appreciate that the ads were both relevant and short. Lately they have been neither. Repetitive ads for other apps are already the worst and now I have to sometimes sit through 2 60-second ads before and after each round, which is more time watching ads than playing. ### 5/5 — Obsessed. *2024-11-10, version 1.1.9* I was hooked on alchemy and now I’m hooked on Signs. Thank you! May I please request a left-handed option to put the trash bin on the left? Thanks again! ### 5/5 — You brought back Alchemy! *2024-11-02, version 1.1.9* Thank you! ### 4/5 — Remove Ads? *2024-10-27, version 1.1.9* I really liked this game and was ready to buy the Remove Ads in-app purchase but sadly I couldn’t find it… It appears to have been removed… …so I removed the app instead 😕 ### 3/5 — Ads are super annoying *2024-08-26, version 1.1.9* I loved Popcap’s game, and this is a great remake of it - 5 stars for the game. That said, all of the video ads between levels are really annoying - long, repetitive, and vapid. 😖 I’d happily pay for this game to get rid of the ads, but that doesn’t seem to be an option. 3 stars for the overall experience of game play. ### 5/5 — Alchemy *2024-06-06, version 1.1.9* This is great, just like the old alchemy game I use to play‼️ ### 4/5 — Enjoying it a lot *2023-07-28* I had been looking for Popcap’s Alchemy game off and on for years. A few weeks ago I tripped over a thread (maybe on Reddit???) where this app was mentioned. It has filled the Alchemy void. Thank y’all. So I gave only four stars because I’ve been stuck on level 25 for a while. There are hardly any gray blocks or red Xs in the queue. I didn’t think much of it until the levels progressed in difficulty. That’s the only flaw: OG Alchemy included an occasional gray block and X where Signs gives two gray blocks at the beginning of this particular level and that’s it. ## Frequently asked questions about Signs ### What is Signs - Alchemy?
