### 1/5 — Absolutely stupid game

*2024-08-03, version 4.6*

30 seconds of a game play and 2 minutes even worst adds.

### 1/5 — This wasn’t the good game this noon... that is bad!

*2024-01-19, version 4.3*

I was trying to get 2048, but 2048 WAS 2K!!! it was crazy the whole time! I want it to be normal like 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192 and 16384! Not K’s M’s B’s T’s and Q’s!

### 3/5 — Help

*2023-12-06, version 4.3*

Is there a way to stop the background from moving?

### 5/5 — Extremely Fun!!

*2023-04-13, version 3.8*

This game is a BLAST!!!!!!!! Today I got to 1M!!!!!!!! I didn’t know you could get that far. This game is SOOOOO much fun.

### 2/5 — Need instructions

*2022-09-01, version 3.6*

Don’t know what I am doing.  What’s the goal?  What is good , what is bad?  Confused

### 5/5 — Ad FREE OPTION PLEASE!!!!!

*2022-04-01, version 3.5*

I really enjoy this game. It helps me decompress at the end of the day but the ads are beyond annoying!! They don’t close properly so I end up getting frustrated

### 5/5 — Jillinda Mills

*2022-03-12, version 3.5*

I play this every day and never get tired of it.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-03-06, version 3.5*

Spend forever playing this simple game

### 2/5 — Terrific game ruined CONSTANT ADS

*2021-11-20, version 3.4*

And there is no way to pay to opt out of ads.  

I urge the developer to add this. Because this game is challenging and addicting. But not if you stop for an ad constantly. And they’re not short ads. The full 30 second w the 5 second extra to close. CONSTANTLy. Sometimes in the middle of gameplay.

Please add the option to opt out of ads. I’m willing yo pay up to 6.99 for that.
