### 3/5 — The game

*2026-03-04, version 0.2.51*

Please get the advertisements off the screen. They stay on way too long. I have been playing this game for a long time. I’m almost at 7000 games ,plus all the events and it’s getting ridiculous. I have complained about this many times and it keeps happening.  Ridiculous. Plus there is a shadow over the event so I can’t play
Again  Ridiculous as usual .

### 3/5 — Tile journey review

*2024-08-14*

I have been playing this game for at least 2 to 3 years daily and this last year has been awful. I would play it every single day however I find myself now playing other games because the game has a lot of issues the advertising of other games won’t permit you to continue. When a special or seasonal part of the game is offered you can’t participate because you can’t get the advertising off your screen .I have had the advertising of product, other games etc stuck on my screen for two days Bug fixes are needed constantly You advertise games with no ads. You need to consider that for this game Awful You need to consider allowing us to be able to play at least 2 rounds before an advertisement. Advertisements are to long and to constant over and over again. Ridiculous !
You also need to get. Vita mahjong off my screen so I can play the new special event

### 3/5 — Too many ads and game hangs up or freezes

*2024-05-15, version 0.2.27*

Three times now while competing in the Mother’s Day event this game has gotten hung up, slid yellow prize tiles out of sight behind other picture tiles for no credit, and simple refused to send yellow tiles down to the rack. O matter how many times I tap them. This messes up my count and my score and slows my progress PLUS if I go out of the game and come back in again I get to enjoy yet another ridiculous advertisement for a lame game.
I enjoy the game but this just hasn’t been fair.

### 3/5 — Too many ads, game flitches and locks up

*2024-04-09*

I enjoy the puzzles though they get boring when there isn’t a competitive event. The prizes are generous and it’s possible to play without making purchases. My complaint is that there is ad after every completed round and some of those don’t ever turn off making it necessary to totally go out of the game and come back in order to continue play.

### 4/5 — Keeps jamming up

*2023-12-10, version 0.2.24*

I love this game and play it most days. However today it has stuck again. I’ve had a problem in the last couple of days but it usually right’s itself in about 10 minutes. Today however it’s been stuck for over 2 Hours! Can you do anything? Thank you.

### 4/5 — Please fix the bug

*2023-11-24, version 0.2.22*

Love this game, playing a lot. You can play absolutely free, if you have patience to watch ads. Some are long, yes, but you can deep breathe 3 times or look far away for your eye health and it’s time to play again.  
Recently I have a problem with turning tiles, especially golden ones. I think it’s a bug. The tiles are completely visible but cannot be turned. Sometimes the game finishes while there still are titles on the screen. Please fix ASAP.

### 2/5 — Loved but

*2023-10-21, version 0.2.22*

I loved this game but I’ve noticed that the long ads that you cannot exit out of but have to let play out are much more often. I find myself just closing the app and reopening to avoid them. It’s gotten ridiculous.

### 4/5 — Update: bugs have been fixed! Great app

*2023-09-07, version 0.2.19*

This app was great compared to others. However, after a recent update, the app is now often failing to load for some unknown reason. I emailed the team over a week ago but they haven’t responded. 😣

Update: this issue has been fixed by the developer

### 4/5 — Great

*2023-08-08, version 0.2.16*

There are adds but not a lot and I can enjoy this I recommend this game and I haven’t spent ANY money on this game !!! Good game

### 4/5 — More variety needed

*2023-06-13, version 0.2.13*

I like this app.  Relaxing to play.  Would be nice if you could challenge other players.  A challenge would have to be an option you chose since mandating it would have older players blowing up 4 year old’s fun time.  LoL.
I am reaching my limit for wanting to continue to play because it does get boring after awhile.

### 4/5 — Tile Journey

*2023-04-14, version 0.2.10*

I like the game. But the ads are too long.

### 1/5 — App Won’t Load on Ipad

*2025-10-01, version 0.2.46*

App won’t load on an iPad running latest version. There’s a red circle in the upper right corner with a 1 in it.

### 1/5 — Game won’t open

*2024-03-10, version 0.2.25*

Playing game today and now game won’t open just blank screen!

### 1/5 — Please help

*2023-08-10, version 0.2.16*

I love this game, but as of this morning the app will not open.  It just reverts to my Home Screen with all my icons.
I have over 38,000 coins, and am currently ranked 1st in the race game.
I don’t want to delete the app because I’m afraid I’ll lose my coins and progress, correct?
If I could get the app to open it would definitely be a five star review!

### 1/5 — Bad news

*2023-05-10, version 0.2.11*

This is kind of sad for me. Last year Tile Journey just would not load. It was one of my two favorite games. I contacted you to fix it on your end, and you did. I don’t remember the exact icon, but the 2021 became a grapefruit with 2022 overlaying it. Well, here we are at the end of 2022, and once again Tile Journey will not open. Just immediately flips back to the wall where all my icons are. 
I decided to delete and reinstall it even though it would mean losing years of gameplay. I like the game that much. Well guess what. I reinstalled it, and it still won’t open. 
What is the point of having a game that can only be played for a year? I ask, because this is the second year this has happened to me. Both times in mid December.
Update: Here it is 2023 and once again I’m deleting and reinstalling. Like the game. Love the graphics. But it only plays well for a year. After that it’s almost impossible to load, or play more than a level or two at the most before it kicks out.
Oh well.

### 1/5 — Use to be my favourite game!!!

*2023-02-24, version 0.2.9*

I liked this game until they started putting on an add that wouldn’t let you close it. It took you to a website about those SCAM gummies and the only way to get out of it was to reboot my iPhone. Having to do that after every game is ridiculous. I would play more if you took these ads off (replace them with a different one)but so far nothing. I sure hope you change it before you loose more customers.

Sorry guys! I really like this game. But it’s not worth the frustration! There are always new games being developed out there. 
I wish you well, but its the end of the road for me.

### 5/5 — Least annoying one so far

*2023-04-28, version 0.2.11*

Yes there’s ads, but at least they won’t interrupt you in the middle of gameplay unlike some others. The game itself is great and I love it.

### 5/5 — Good game!

*2022-11-26, version 0.2.1*

I like this game. It is one of the better match games. I like that a player can pick out what themes they want to play with. It is a challenging game yet not too hard.
