### 4/5 — Music is monotonous

*2025-04-04, version 2.5*

Otherwise it’s a pleasant way to wind down

### 5/5 — Fmhhkfug

### 5/5 — Tazen puzzle

*2024-02-04, version 2.5*

I have this puzzles since long time ago and still like very much is a great way to relax your mind highly recommend

### 1/5 — Amazing balls

*2023-05-22, version 2.5*

Dis ap amazing bals

### 5/5 — Lovely and ads are discreet

*2022-09-22, version 2.5*

This is a lovely app.  It is indeed relaxing to do.  It’s also pretty discreet with the ads—you get small ads along the top of the screen, and that’s it.  I prefer this to the greedy apps that flash the whole screen with pop up ads every 2 seconds (those usually get uninstalled fast).

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-07-19, version 2.5*

Love it !!!!

### 2/5 — Great

*2021-05-17, version 2.5*

A ok app great for math when my kid was remote it was great for him to do math.my son loves this game.

### 5/5 — Relaxing and fun

*2021-03-23, version 2.5*

Definitely one of the better ones out there. A bit addictive but in a good way.

### 5/5 — A little frustrating but like the game

*2020-09-06, version 2.5*

Like the game. Easy to play and relaxing. A little frustrated when the shadow still has a gray spot after placing all the pieces. This has happened three times so far.

### 4/5 — Enjoyable, relaxing game.

*2020-07-05, version 2.5*

I really enjoy this game. It’s easy to play, and just enough of a challenge to be interesting, but it’s not difficult to the point of being frustrating. There’s no timer to stress about, and you can’t be “killed,” so you can just play at your own pace without having to think too much. Nice design as well.  My only problem is that when I tap on “songs” in the options, the app crashes every time. I like the main music, but would like to change it once in a while, but I’ve never been able to hear what the other music is. I hope they can fix this in an update.
