It’s very good fun and I’d definitely recommend it to my friends!😀 ### 2/5 — too hard *2026-06-12, version 3.145.0* no way to get daily bonuses. it is hard to progress. ### 5/5 — Lowered my blood pressure 💜 🍭 *2026-06-12, version 3.145.0* Lowered my blood pressure 💜 🍭 ### 1/5 — Keep losing stars earned *2026-06-04, version 3.145.0* I’ve been playing this game for several years. The past few months, the 2 or 3 stars I earn from level 5001 and up keep disappearing and go back to 1 star. The fix they provided does not work and nothing has been fixed as promised. I might have to delete this game permanently. ### 5/5 — Game keeps freezing *2026-06-03, version 3.145.0* Game keeps freezing on me. Very frustrating ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-06-02, version 3.145.0* Very fun game and it is cool age ### 2/5 — Not enough bonus *2026-05-19, version 3.145.0* Don’t waste your time downloading, I have been playing this game for several years now, I started when I had Samsung and android phone, I with the I phone family now , the game is the same , still not enough or good bonuses for me. I will be uninstalling this game and will not download it again. ### 1/5 — Such a waste *2026-05-19, version 3.145.0* Funny none of the recent reviews are posted. After several weeks they finally developed about 6-7 new levels. In a matter of hours it was game over again. I’ve played this for years and until the new “developers” took over there were no issues. ### 3/5 — Where’s my stars *2026-04-15, version 3.145.0* Since starting the 5000 series when I get three stars or two, once I quit the game and come back later, it shows only one star. I tried doing r Them over but the same thing happens. ### 5/5 — Good fun *2026-04-14, version 3.145.0* I like it as much as others that don’t want me to open a pay account of some type. ## Frequently asked questions about Sugar Smash ### What is Sugar Smash: Book of Life?
