### 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

### 2/5 — They keep showing me ads even though I brought ad free

*2025-10-04, version 2.0.1*

I think this app used to be owned by a different company because the game play changed, for the worst by the way, and I paid for the ad free version with the original company and they just completely revoked that initially when the new owners took over. It took me like 2 weeks to get them to restore the ad free version. Now when I open the app, it forces me to watch an ad every time and then use “restore purchase” button which is basically still forcing me to watch ads even though, I paid for the ad free version! Also half the game doesn’t work. There’s still locked sections despite me being on like level 2k+. If I didn’t already pay for this game, I would delete it

### 1/5 — Ruined my favorite game

*2025-07-21, version 2.0.1*

Whatever changes you made ruined the game I’ve enjoyed for years and it’s disappointing to say the least

### 3/5 — I want the old version back!

*2025-06-25, version 2.0.1*

I had been playing this game for a very long time. I really enjoyed it! I do NOT like this version!! I want my old version back! This game was fine the way it was. I’m disappointed.  This game is ok the old one was better.

### 1/5 — No ads option

*2025-06-23, version 2.0.1*

No ads option does  not work!  So I paid my 6.99 for no ads and still have one long ad when I log on. I reached out to customer service and they asked me to provide proof that I paid.  I tried to find what they wanted  but my technology skills are limited.  I have repeatedly asked why they can’t look at my account to see that I paid for no ads.  They just keep sending back a simular response to the first one.  Beyond frustrating!

### 1/5 — Don’t download! unplayable and unable to delete app!

*2025-06-01, version 2.0.1*

I used to play this all the time, both for the quickie math skills and for the just plain fun of it. I was able to rotate and reverse with no problems and go back to the last die or dice. Now those things require high amounts of advertisements and they give you multiples of four, making sure you don’t get the small #s or singles needed toadd up to 10 or that they are in doubles. Too bad… It’s no longer worth flag.

### 1/5 — Not the same..

*2025-05-03, version 2.0.1*

They ruined the game with the latest update. It’s not even the same game anymore.

### 1/5 — Who changes a game entirely?

*2025-04-19, version 2.0.1*

I used to play this all the time, but then they turned it into a level based game and it’s completely different. And not in a good way. I used to go for a high score and now it forces you to play in levels. It’s not worth the storage space any longer.

### 4/5 — October 2024 update

*2025-04-18, version 2.0.1*

I agree with another review about this update. This is no longer the game I enjoyed playing. I admit I didn’t play this game for a long time, but I don’t see myself playing now anymore. If I could get rid of this update, I would

### 1/5 — Whyyy

*2025-03-27, version 2.0.1*

Why the game changed??? It’s not that fun anymore:(( I miss the infinite game

### 1/5 — Can’t get past the tutorial

*2025-03-26, version 2.0.1*

I played this game for a few years, then I stopped. I just came back to it, and I can’t even drag the block when the tutorial tells me to. And based on the recent reviews, looks like I’m not missing out on much. I was going to start playing again, but I guess not…

### 1/5 — Just why?

*2025-03-21, version 2.0.1*

The game was significantly better without the levels and changes. The fact that there isn’t even an “endless” mode is sad and severely disappointing. I used to love this game and how I could play endlessly for hours and beat my high score, but not anymore I guess. Thank you for your time.

### 2/5 — Why?

*2025-03-19, version 2.0.1*

The latest update has changed the game so completely that I don’t think I will be playing anymore. Is there a way to revert to the old version?

### 1/5 — Horrible !!

*2025-03-17, version 2.0.1*

I have been using this game for years. Paid for the no ads version as well because it came with the ability to rotate the dice which was awesome. Opener the game up a few months ago to play it and noticed that the game has changed and it gave me the option to purchase no ads AGAIN. My ability to rotate dice was also gone. I sent an email to company and they responded asking for a copy of the receipt and a video screen shot of the game. I sent both. Never got a response from them. I sent another email over a month later and someone responded saying that they were looking over the info and someone would get back with me. Needless to say, I’ve never heard from anyone. I would definitely stay away from updating the game to no ads BUT if you play the game with ads, you get bombarded with ads after every game. So sad.

### 1/5 — Ruined

*2025-02-27, version 2.0.1*

Was a great game. Too easy now.

### 1/5 — Awful update

*2025-02-23, version 2.0.1*

Used to like the game but not anymore.

### 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.

### 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.

### 1/5 — Paying for Ads?!

*2025-12-26, version 2.1.0*

I paid for this. Why are there banners? “Restore Purchases” doesn’t even do anything - it doesn’t even pretend; you put your password in and nothing; there’s zero indication it’s even TRYING to check. If you click “restore purchases” again it’s like it had never happened a first time.  Greedy devs!!  Bet if I sell you something it’ll only be the once - I won’t come back conniving with more ways to get money from you.  I didn’t pay for small ads - I paid for NO ads.

### 1/5 — What the hell bro

*2025-10-25, version 2.0.1*

This has been my go to game for yeaaaaaars and then you just up and change it?? No option to do levels and ALSO the original endless game? *fart noise* it is completely unplayable now sorry yall but the bond is broken

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-09-27, version 2.0.1*

This used to be my favorite stress relieving game. I paid for no ads and I’ve played it for years. Just logged in and everything is changed. My progress is lost. It looks stupid and cartoonish. I’m so disappointed. I’ll never play or recommend again.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-07-24, version 2.1.5*

Fun

### 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!

### 5/5 — Very good game

*2025-08-25, version 2.0.1*

Hello there I am here to right this review I have been at the beginning of the game very good game just 1 critical note there was a minor update recently how do you change the style of the die (dice)

### 5/5 — Muito bom

Um vício!

### 5/5 — This game is amazing but

*2024-12-25, version 2.0.1*

I miss having skins I used to have a nice silver one and FREAKING LOVED IT I miss that so much but this game is still great

### 5/5 — Dislike now

*2024-11-16, version 2.0.1*

Again for no adds.

### 5/5 — I love playing this game

*2024-11-10, version 2.0.1*

I love playing this game

### 5/5 — Good game

*2024-11-04, version 2.0.1*

Great game! It would be nice though. The endless version.

### 5/5 — October 2024 update

*2024-10-31, version 2.0.1*

The recent update is perfect for anyone who seeks more advertising and less functionality. I’ve played Tens for several years but the new version isn’t what I wanted or would have expected. If there’s a way to undo the “update,” I would welcome it.  Using points (or money!) to purchase functionality that was previously a default feature is annoying.

### 5/5 — 面白い

*2024-06-22, version 1.12.7*

けど急に広告みてシャッフルし直しとか無料広告でコインの受け取り、爆弾でやり直しとかが出来なくなった！！
これもバグですよね！？😡バグ多すぎなんですよ！！今すぐ解決してください！！😡😡😡
