### 1/5 — Crashing more

*2026-08-24, version 2.1.5*

Been playing for several years, but over past 6-12 months being getting moor and more freezes and crashes
Eg, one block to play and position but cannot be moved the screen stays to  “shiver” have to exit game completely to resolve . On iPhone 13, with up to date OS and game. Happening about once a week.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-07-24, version 2.1.5*

Fun

### 3/5 — Freezing

*2026-07-09, version 2.1.5*

This app constantly freezes and I'm on level 436 and really don't wanna start all over again

### 5/5 — Hate New Version

*2026-06-21, version 2.1.5*

I love this game, but we hate the new version. It gets too hard, you can’t flip the dice unless you either use points or watch commercials. I wish I’d known it was so very different before I purchased it. You should have the other one still available!

### 1/5 — Horrible update

*2026-06-13, version 2.1.5*

Used to play this daily for years. The update completely changed the gameplay from infinite to level based Instead of just adding it as a separate/optional game mode. I hate it. On top of that I purchased no ads a while ago and now they're back. Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — Game used to be good

*2026-04-27, version 2.1.4*

Now it's a cash grab like the others. I loved everything about the previous version with the exception of the limited levels. I topped out really quickly but I was confident that they would come back with more. I even paid to remove ads. They won't even restore restore that. If you think the game has changed and isn't as fun - it's bc you're right.

### 1/5 — Deleting

*2026-03-26, version 2.1.3*

I avoid updating apps because I can’t stand it when there’s a major overhaul and I end up hating the update. I play TENS regularly and by the looks of other reviews it got overhauled a year ago and I didn’t even know it. So having not updated TENS and the game icon is still the old dice design, I just went to play it and I had to agree to their terms and conditions and it’s the level mode instead of infinite play. The old gameplay and design were much better than this generic candy crush look alike. I didn’t need hammers or things to change up gameplay. I just enjoyed a simple game that was relaxing and different from everything else that’s out there. It used to be a good way to kill time. I’ll miss it.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-03-22, version 2.1.2*

After recent update have lost all my points, everyone is called Pepe and app freezes after every game. This is a huge disappointment as I have played for years 😢

### 1/5 — Used to be my favorite.

*2026-03-13, version 2.1.1*

This used to be my favorite waiting room and airport game until they scrapped it for the cheap, overused mobile game mechanics.

Everything is level based and you use puzzle pieces to build a “world,” which has nothing to do with the game and adds nothing. This game was good when it had infinite mode but now you have to operate on their lives system so that they can squeeze more money out of you.

Goodbye, old buddy

### 1/5 — Keeps making phone freeze

*2025-12-31, version 2.1.0*

I can’t play very long because it keeps making my phone freeze up.
