You rig these levels so it’s impossible to even get past it without having to use some sort of move like adding a new slot or shuffling or a time freeze disappointing because this game was really fun otherwise. ### 2/5 — level 777 is impossible *2025-01-21, version 3.4.11* i’ve been trying this level for so long, even with shuffle it just gives you an other impossible game. now i have no money and no vending machines👎 ### 2/5 — Loved it...for about a week *2024-08-19* Great game but some definite flaws! Annoying flaws. There needs to be a way to skip a level you have been trying to pass for what seems like MONTHS! Or at least a forfeit button that costs some coins. Super frustrating!!! What is the cash your vending machines earn used for in this game? I can't find any detailed instructions on 'how to' play, earn things, etc. I have all this cash but can only used it to earn more cash??? I'm so bummed. Really liked this game. ### 4/5 — It’s okay *2024-08-18, version 3.4.7* I like this game it is very fun and I like the concept. I don’t enjoy the timer though; I enjoy being able to take my time when solving puzzles. ### 4/5 — Fun… is it rigged or some levels just too hard? *2024-08-02* This is my favorite kind of mindless puzzle game, I would play it all day if I could - but I can’t. I’ve been stuck on level 224 for what feels like a year at this point. I try it a couple times a week and at this point I’ve tried everything possible without buying a shuffle… I’m starting to wonder if the level isn’t possible without it? I purchased a couple shuffles in the beginning for harder levels just to keep the game going but I’m dedicated to figuring out if there are rigged levels that cannot be untangled without a power up purchase… and if I figure out that’s true I can’t keep playing out of principal. If anyone solves that level with no power up I absolutely need to see how. ### 3/5 — Used to be great, now unplayable *2024-06-18* I used to love this game so much, until some recent updates changed thing for the worse. Like other reviews, I payed for no ads but now after the update I get ads again? And tries to get me to pay AGAIN for no ads. They also changed the main screen where you manage and upgrade vending machines so now whenever you go to that screen, it starts you at the highest level vending machine. You then have to tap *one at a time* allll the way to the machines you actually have unlocked. It takes so long, I stopped refilling & upgrading those machines right after that update. It’s way too tedious to be fun now. Very disappointing. ### 2/5 — Bait you to buy coins on level 133 *2024-04-19, version 3.4.6* You cannot beat level 133, even with buying the extra spot and mix up items and you still cannot beat it. I tried for almost a week and got mad and deleted the game. Such a shame. I really enjoyed it but I don’t appreciate having unbeatable levels. ### 4/5 — Changed the Game *2024-03-10* I love this game. I think it’s probably good for the game since it involves strategizing. Why does every update change the game? I’m on level 98 and was stuck in the 2nd puzzle of that level. Then it updated and this level is a completely different puzzle. Plus it went back to only allowing 5 lives while previously I could play as many times as I wanted. It’s so frustrating! ### 3/5 — Needs other options to obtain coins *2024-03-06* The game itself is great, the fact that the only way you can get coins when you run out is to continue the level’s or buy them with real money and no option to use the money you make in the game is extremely frustrating, I’m stuck on level 300 no way out of it unless I purchase coins and I feel like you should be able to do that with the money you made from the vending machines. Please take this into consideration and update it. Thank you. ### 2/5 — 😭 *2024-02-12, version 3.3.4* Loved this game until the last update took away the choice of watching a ad. So I can't continue because no more moves. ### 3/5 — No longer fun *2024-02-04* I did have this game on my phone, but every single time they sent out an update, it changed the game. The last update they did, it made the game no longer fun, because the stupid update took away the ability to collect the money and restock the machine. Why do they always feel like they have to change things every time it updates!!!!! I deleted the game off my phone, because it was not fun anymore!!!! ### 3/5 — Ads said no ads yet pay to remove ads? *2024-02-03* Seen several ads on different games for Vending Sort. Stated no ads best WiFi free game. Well there were ads and promotions to remove ads after level 21. After all that the game is decent, you have to watch where you move because (unlike in the ads) you cannot stack randomly after so many plays. ### 4/5 — Where is the city? *2024-01-20* I actually really enjoy this game, it’s not difficult but does make you think a bit. Recently I was playing and ran out of coins because I could not find a way to get back to the city to collect more, and couldn’t get past the level because I didn’t have enough coins for shuffles or more time. That went on for a while and I started to wonder if maybe there was a glitch in the game, so I deleted and reinstalled the app, unfortunately losing all my progress. I’m back at level 60 and still haven’t seen the city option. Is that feature gone? What if we run out of coins and can’t move on to the next level? Bring back the city please! ### 3/5 — Gets to be the same thing over and over *2024-01-18* I’ve been playing this game for a few months when I get bored. At first I really liked it. Easy enough, some levels were challenging. There was a city map where you could buy vending machines and refill them over time. So, when bored, it had a couple things to do. I took a couple week break and when I came back the map is gone. The literally just the vending machines now and I swear each level is about the same as the next. Each vending machine only ever has two or three rows so it’s like you’re doing the same puzzle over and over. Where did the map go? And can we please get some bigger vending machine puzzles? This is one of the few games I like to play more consistently but it’s getting old…. ### 2/5 — City??? *2024-01-16, version 3.2.5* After playing the game for several weeks for hours. The update took away the city! Will the city return? Also, all the cash that is made should be able to be used for other things in the app such as extra slots or coins. Please fix. If not fixed soon will be deleting. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — BYE *2026-07-12, version 3.6.0* I was 160+ levels in, now I have to restart for some reason. I’m deleting this game. ### 1/5 — Don’t buy *2026-05-08, version 3.6.0* They changed the game after I was at a high level. Don’t spend your money they change the game and it’s never the exact same. ### 1/5 — Update ruined it! *2026-04-23, version 3.5.0* I loved playing this game and had made it pretty far in the levels. I took a couple of days off, came back to play and found all my past game history was gone and the game completely changed. Not happy!!!! ### 1/5 — 🫥 *2026-03-04, version 3.4.11* You only get to organize the machine. I recommend not to get it ### 1/5 — AGHHHHHHHHHH *2024-11-17, version 3.4.11* this game won’t load it is stuck on the elephant ### 1/5 — Not What I Signed Up For *2024-03-09, version 3.4.6* I wanted the game I saw in the ad. That’s how ads WORK. ICYMI. Otherwise after two or three plays, you’re looking for more. #boring ### 1/5 — Review *2024-01-30, version 3.2.8* Trouble getting pieces to move. Trouble with some functions (own?) game is slow. ### 1/5 — Just another boring sorting game *2024-01-15, version 3.2.5* Boring since the update they got rid of the city where you could re stock and collect cash from different machines. Now it’s just another generic sorting game. Not playing it anymore due to this update. ### 1/5 — Bring back the city *2024-01-14, version 3.2.5* You really went and messed up a good thing. It’s like a breakup. ### 1/5 — This game *2024-01-13, version 3.2.5* Bad game ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 🤔❤️🥳🇺🇸🫡🙏😎🤩😍😇 *2026-04-24, version 3.5.0* 😇😍🤩🇺🇸🫡🙏😎🥳❤️ ### 5/5 — yay! *2025-11-18, version 3.4.11* best one! ### 5/5 — The colors are cool. *2025-02-27, version 3.4.11* The cookies are cool easy to play. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2025-01-26* I’ve been enjoying this game since I found it. Just have one question. What’s the ‘cash’ for? There doesn’t seem to be a way to turn it into anything useful so it just accumulates. Wish there was a way to turn it into do-overs, extra goes or extra slots. ### 5/5 — STUCK BUT I LOVE IT. *2024-08-09, version 3.4.7* Someone help me with level 371 honestly Ive been on it for what feels like a year and it’s killing me tbh but overall I love this game . ### 5/5 — Fun game at 1st, but now No *2024-07-03* I love playing this game but recently after the update I lost my city. I have unlocked all of my machines so they are in automatic mode or automatic manage. In auto manage I do not seem to be receiving my coins like I was with manual managing my, at this point, I hate the . And then I lost all my progress. I went from level 244 back to 1. I have contacted customer service five times with no response from anyone. ### 5/5 — I loved this game but *2024-02-29, version 3.3.4* After the update I lost the no ads feature I paid for. I used to play this all the time but I’m mad I paid for no ads and now they are back plus I got a pop up offering a sale on buying it again. Smh ### 5/5 — This game ROCKS *2024-01-11* I never write reviews on games, but I always read them, so I figured when I FINALLY found a decent puzzle game to review I’d do so. Firstly, they don’t bombard you with ads every 2 seconds which is a welcome change. In fact the only time you actually get an ad is when you choose to double your money or unlock a feature. Second, the puzzles actually get a bit complicated the further you go so it’s not a dumbed down game, but not so hard you want to throw your phone across the room. Thirdly, it’s really well designed and the little animations are great. It’s simple and cute and a lot of fun! Something to do to keep yourself occupied while you’re on break or just need a distraction. Well done! ### 5/5 — Auto restock *2024-01-03* Game cool but should make things easier and less ads EVERYTIME YOU FIRST LOAD into the game? Little wack ngl but should put auto restock and collect the money like why do I gotta do it manually? ### 5/5 — Old version back *2023-12-19, version 3.1.7* I want the old version back --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
