### 4/5 — Great game requiring screen proportion update

*2024-07-09, version 1.0.8*

Excellent and soothing game. This just needs an update fixing the image ratio to fit screen proportions of newer iphone models.

### 3/5 — Good game, too many ads.

*2022-02-09*

Relaxing and aesthetically pleasing game. It’s the same as Blockorz, from CoolMathGames for anyone that might know it growing up. 
Ads play every two or three stage clears, and there’s an ad banner at the bottom. Breaks the immersion.
Otherwise, not a bad game. Maybe needs to reduce the ads to not appear so frequently, though.

### 4/5 — It’s decent and playable!

*2019-07-17, version 1.0.8*

Ok so I’ve completed every single level in this game. 3300/3300 stars, not bad. If you want to avoid ads, just turn off the WiFi and play it. Some of the levels were really tricky, but majority of them were easy. It’s a great game overall, but it can get to the point where it’s REALLY BORING. Like this game is one of those games where you pick it as a “last option” in my opinion. I’m still giving it 4 stars for the playing experience. I never really used the cheat how to beat the level using money tutorial. But it was still somewhat relaxing.

### 3/5 — Cute and relaxing but...

*2019-07-14, version 1.0.8*

I like this game. I find it soothing. But the very long ads that come up after every 15 second round you play kind of ruins the experience for you. I don’t mind the occasional ad but this is ridiculous. You can pay to remove the ads but I’m just sick of being asked do that with every single app. 
I’ll just get rid of the game.

### 4/5 — I love the game but…

*2019-04-15*

This is a really fun and cool strategy game that I really enjoy to play on a daily basis. The one thing that I am really dissatisfied about is not being able to play in full screen. I have the iPhone XS Max and it is just really annoying sometimes to not be able to play this game in full screen. Besides that minor little set back, I think this game is absolutely amazing and fun. The gameplay is stunning and I think that the developer did an amazing job on this app.

### 4/5 — I like it but some issues

*2019-03-21*

So I just got this game today and I love it,But theres some problems.

Problem 1. Idk if this happens to anyone else but when I go down it goes up and when I go left I go right. This doesn’t happen in all the levels, but some of them.

Problem 2. Sometimes when I hit FREE PRIZE!!! I watch the video and it doesn’t let me spin the wheel. This doesn’t happen very often but it happens sometimes. (Also idk if this happens to u or just me)

### 3/5 — Cool Math 2.0

*2019-03-08, version 1.0.5*

The game itself is decent, but it is literally just Bloxors from CoolMathGames.com, which is cool, but really?!

### 4/5 — I have no life

*2019-02-11, version 1.0.4*

Good game but too many ads. Still finished all the levels tho... in three days... 🥴

### 2/5 — I don’t really like it.

*2019-01-30, version 1.0.4*

I like this game a little but the problem with me is that the game don’t always take the direction commands but other than that I quite like the game.

### 3/5 — Missing something big

*2019-01-25, version 1.0.4*

Addictive-yes
Graphics-yes
Coins-UGH! In order to get points/coins you need to watch ads. Then you get to spin a roulette wheel and can get 25-300 coins. There are no points for finishing levels, boards or even getting a perfect score on levels.

### 4/5 — Tip for anyone annoyed by ads...

*2019-01-21, version 1.0.4*

Play on airplane mode to completely avoid glitchy ads—you’re welcome in advance 😉
Controls are kind of finicky but it’s a fun time waster nonetheless.

### 2/5 — Cool game, too many ads..

*2019-01-20, version 1.0.4*

30 second ad, 10 second game, 30 second ad, 20 second game, 30 sec ad, 5 second game, 30 second ad... you get the point

### 3/5 — Too many ads

*2019-01-17*

The game itself is very cute and relaxing - if it wasn’t interrupted with an ad every time you finish a level. For people who are familiar with Bloxors (I think that’s what it was called), a lot of these levels are familiar and fairly easy at first, and it’ll feel like you’re being bombarded by advertisements. A real shame, it’s such a cute game!
Also, those who are weary the two games will be too similar, there are a couple variants in the puzzles so they’re not too bad to pass the time if the ads weren’t there.

### 4/5 — Love it but...

*2019-01-11, version 1.0.4*

I love this game! Very satisfying and not super frustrating like some other puzzle games. I just wish that the block made some kind of noise when it folds over, that would make the game 100x better!

### 3/5 — Too simple

*2019-01-10, version 1.0.4*

Can we like, roll the tofu around in green onion or something? Lol. I get the whole simplicity/calming aspect of the game, but some more visual effects and sound effects would be awesome. Some music too!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — ...

*2019-05-17, version 1.0.8*

I didn’t like it.

### 1/5 — I never got what I purchased

*2019-04-26, version 1.0.8*

I purchased like 200 coins i believe, and it was never given to me. I waited a week before I finally got fed up and deleted the app. It’s fun, but don’t put any money in unless you’re sure you’ll get what you paid for.

### 1/5 — Generic bad game with too many ads

*2019-03-11, version 1.0.5*

If your looking for a game like this your better with a browser game that doesn’t cram an ad Down your throat every 2 clicks

### 1/5 — THE WHOLE GAME IS ADS

*2019-02-27, version 1.0.5*

Literally a 30 second ad after every round ridiculous

### 1/5 — Too many ads.

*2019-01-27, version 1.0.4*

A 30 second video after ever 10 seconds of play is too much.  Deleted before I did 10 levels.

### 1/5 — Just a knockoff

*2019-01-27, version 1.0.4*

I saw this game immediately thought if bloxorz which I played so much as a kid please just get original game and not this stupid ad filled copycat

### 1/5 — I don’t know what happened

*2019-01-26, version 1.0.4*

Maybe a little bit too many ads. But other than that I really liked it. UNTIL I GOT TO LEVEL 8...level eight is actually impossible. I got all the hints for it and I’m not stupid. I swear I tried everything.

### 1/5 — possibly the worst game ever created

*2019-01-22, version 1.0.4*

do not install, many flaws along with boring levels to completely waste your time

### 1/5 — Can’t tell.....

*2019-01-11, version 1.0.4*

It won’t even let me download it so it’s obviously glitchy I don’t even want to add one star it looks fun but it’s their loss cause I can’t even play the game so I am just going to assume that this is a very glitchy game

### 1/5 — Way too many ads, so so annoying

*2019-01-10, version 1.0.4*

Too many ads, not enough time play.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — The game “Perfect Turn” is copying this

*2019-07-16, version 1.0.8*

Another company is copying this game I put a review on the other game saying this is the original and it’s better cause it has less ads do please make less ads so more people will play it.

### 5/5 — GREAT GAME

*2019-02-16, version 1.0.4*

This app is great! It’s very aesthetic looking and once you start to play Tofu, it’s VERY addicting. It’s also a game that keeps you calm not only because of the setup, but also the setting and how it looks. Five out five stars recommended!❤️

### 5/5 — Fun & Cute

*2019-02-07*

Great game. Levels can get a bit difficult but never super frustrating. I’ve only needed a hint once so I can’t comment on the merits of the hint system. The tofu block is so cute the way it jiggles and the art/scenery is beautiful in a minimalist way. Lovely design and relaxing/entertaining gameplay throughout!

There were quite a few ads though...I just paid to remove them...the price was very fair. I love playing without interruption. This game’s worth it!

### 5/5 — I love Tofu

*2019-02-06*

I have literally never written a review for an app before, yet I play new ones constantly. It’s true, Tofu lacks in a few features. The only way to get coins is watching ads. There are limited skin options for your tofu. However, this game is addicting, soothing, and super fun. I play it on my commute and I play it watching movies. I love to watch the tofu jiggle. The levels are easy to get through, and once in a while a challenge comes up. There is no time pressure and it is exhilarating to feel the BZT BZT haptics of your tofu plopping its way to its red destination. It is a beautifully simple and aesthetically pleasing time of puzzles that don't stress you out.

### 5/5 — So relaxing! But has some sides to it

*2019-01-29*

I love this game and it’s really cute and relaxing. Some issues though. You have to pay to get hints and there are a lot of ads. Maybe if you toned it down with the ads, this game would be perfect!! I recommend it, but the only downside would be the ads ❤️

### 5/5 — So relaxing and fun!

*2019-01-19*

I’ve been looking for an app that isn’t very challenging and relaxing. This app is perfect! It doesn’t get unbearable hard and even when it rarely does, you have the option to use a tip that shows you how to complete part of it. This makes it so easy and relaxing! 

I’ve read other reviews about glitchy ads but I can’t seem to find anything glitchy with the app at all. I actually think they have very few ads that only pop up here and there. 

Overall, and amazing app that’s both fun and easy!

### 5/5 — Jiggly tofu

*2018-12-30*

Wonderfully relaxing with the way the tofu jiggles. And, contrary to most rolling block games, the tofu does not fall of the sides and the game does not count your moves - relaxing as hell. Beautiful background. Many many levels to satisfy all your  rolling tofu desires. If you turn off your wifi while playing, there are no ads.

### 5/5 — Cool

*2018-12-27, version 1.0.3*

Love the game! But I already finished it! Would love more stages!!!

### 5/5 — Play Without Wifi

*2018-12-23, version 1.0.3*

If you don’t want ads, play without wifi! I like this game.

### 5/5 — Best game ever!

*2018-12-22, version 1.0.3*

Love this game!!!!! Totally obsessed. They need to make a second one! My friend beat all the levels (900) in four days.
