Compared to similar games, one generally can complete more design challenges before encountering the need to pay or else wait for a few hours before completing a new challenge. The real disappointment came when I subscribed to the VIP monthly plan only to discover how limited the benefits are. When I pay almost $20 for a game, I expect full access free of ads and promotional gimmicks. Nope. I barely notice any difference between the paid and free versions. I’ve canceled my (non-refundable) subscription and will play it until it ends. Got fooled this time, but I’ll be wiser moving forward. ### 4/5 — good but *2026-08-23, version 1.29.0* needs more ways to earn in-game currency coins & diamonds, after completing about 10 designs you run out & earn only small amounts after voting ### 2/5 — Lazy, rip off and lacking creativity *2026-08-23, version 1.29.0* It’s an incredibly lazy game. One just chooses colours, some limited and repetitive furniture, very limited design capabilities, after 4-6 choices of colour scheme it’s over. A rip off if you want to design more than one design - you finish in 5 min to choose the few items as there is nothing more to it. No creativity, no imagination. The voting system is ridiculous too- all down to the lowest common denominator. I hoped for some developments but nothing came along. ### 3/5 — Fun but…. *2026-08-23, version 1.29.0* This game is really fun, but without buying coins you can only play it about one time a day…. There isn’t any good way to earn coins to continue playing more than that. ### 3/5 — Mid *2026-08-22, version 1.29.0* It’s great at first but once you run out of coins it becomes very hard to keep playing without purchasing things. Prizes/rewards are really cheap and it lacks options that aren’t all the same style basically so there isn’t much for creative freedom. ### 4/5 — Love this creative game!! *2026-08-20, version 1.29.0* I love this game, i play it daily, i do really wish i could watch videos or something to get more coins instead of having to wait hours before my the wheel is ready or my designs are rated... otherwise great game! ### 4/5 — Lost coins *2026-08-20, version 1.29.0* I enjoy this game, but two times today the app shut down in the middle of gaining coins and there is no other way of reporting this to the developer. I’ve lost 4,000 coins. Hope it doesn’t continue. ### 4/5 — Good but needs some updating *2026-08-20, version 1.29.0* It’s good but I will love if everything was free like all the designs ### 2/5 — It was fun…til it wasn’t *2026-08-20, version 1.29.0* Recent changes in this game seem to have made it harder to get a 5.0 rating and it seems like not everyone gets the same items to use for their designs, which could give an advantage. I’ve dropped way too much coin in this game to keep finding so many issues. I will be deleting the game. ### 3/5 — Keeps ripping me off *2026-08-18, version 1.29.0* So i play the game i watch the ads i earn the coins but i noticed awhile ago sometimes the coins just randomly disappear. I even have screenshots of it happening. Emailed them once not looking for a refund just to tell them they didn’t do anything or respond. I emailed them a few weeks later again just avoiding them they again did nothing and did not respond. Last week i emailed them again as i was trying to submit a room design. The screen said i had enough coins to submit my design but it wouldn’t let me saying i was short 100 coins so i closed out the app and tried again and as i hit submit i watched my coin total suddenly drop 2000 coins. I emailed them multiple times about this with the buffet and screen shot of it happening. Again nothing. I love the game but again I’m not trying to have a heart attack while trying to relax because the game keeps glitching and they do not want to respond to you ever nor fix it. Deleting the game if i do not get this fixed and responded to by tomorrow. ### 3/5 — Colors *2026-08-15, version 1.29.0* I like the game, but its always the same colors. Greens, oranges, browns. Bring in more colors! ### 3/5 — Rating incorrectly *2026-08-14, version 1.29.0* The only complaint I have is that the rating is incorrect. I read what it is that the client wants…I even look up what it means, so I decorate correctly. Well, then I get a low score, the people that get the highest score….the design doesn’t match, most of the time it is just horrible. ### 2/5 — Relaxing play with a price *2026-08-13, version 1.29.0* This is a beautifully designed game and very relaxing to play. However, like many others have mentioned, you run out of currency fast to submit designs. The majority of the home screen in-game is enticing you to spend money for more coins, gems, and rewards. Also not sure if this happens to anyone else but my game crashes constantly. And are we not going to talk about how a yearly subscription for this games costs significantly more than an Amazon Prime subscription?! ### 4/5 — Just one thing *2026-08-12, version 1.29.0* The ratings in the game are biased but other than that I love this game it’s a fun time. ### 2/5 — basically pay to play *2026-08-12, version 1.29.0* like other reviews say you run out of coins fast and the only way to have a consistent amount and keep playing is by buying real money which nobody has the money for. I understand the developers need to be paid too but you could make money off ads or just make the game itself a one time purchase like so many indie devs do. It sucks because other than this the game is genuinely enjoyable ### 4/5 — Great game *2026-08-10, version 1.29.0* I love this game! It is so fun to play and I love that we only have to watch ads if we want an extra 1,000 coins when we’re done with a design. It’s just hard to continue to playing when you barely receive any coins. Like right now I can’t play because I’m waiting on the free rewards to load again so I’ll get more coins and be able to finish what I’m working on now since I don’t have enough coins to finish it. It is frustrating how each design can cost up to 5,000 or more coins and the rewards you get just don’t add up to be enough. 5,000 coins or 10,000 coins for each design or daily prize would be ideal. It stinks when a game is actually fun but you can’t play it because you never have enough coins. ### 3/5 — A shame *2026-08-09, version 1.28.0* This is a great, relaxing game that I’d happily play for hours. But I can’t - not without spending a silly amount of real money. Seems like a cash grab really. ### 3/5 — Money Grab *2026-08-09, version 1.28.0* As others have said—this is a really fun game that is great to play. BUT, the rewards are incredibly disproportional. A daily spin or a top design get you a couple hundred coins or a few gems at most. But buying a simple table costs nearly a thousand. So you eventually have to spend real money to get enough coins to do designs or you have to wait for the 8 hr refresh to respin for another couple hundred. You sometimes win inventory items, but those are infrequent options in designs. It would be better to either scale the rewards to be proportional to the costs OR create a tier system where cheaper designs are options that get you smaller amounts of rewards and then you can pace yourself up. Having designs that require 8-9 expensive options just doesnt work. ### 2/5 — FIX THE ADS OR GET RID OF THEM! *2026-08-08, version 1.28.0* Certain ads are causing you to force close the app which means you don’t get the credit for it. I have lost so many coins this way. ### 4/5 — Fun. Has a Fraudulent Advertiser *2026-08-08, version 1.28.0* This is a head’s up. One of their advertisers, Asuno, selling purple teeth, pills and self tanning gummies advertises an intro of 4 bottles for $24.99 and charges $99.99. My bank’s fraud department called me to alert me of the fraud, blocked my card, and now I get to wait two weeks for a new one. So I am using that time to tell everyone not to waste your time here. They are liars. They’re cheaters. They’re thieves. Don’t waste your time. Don’t waste your money. Don’t waste your energy. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Great until it wasn’t *2026-08-19, version 1.29.0* It was a great game until I got to the point where I couldn’t physically play without spending real money. Another game app deleted ### 1/5 — Greedy Scam *2026-08-10, version 1.29.0* Advertised as a relaxing house decor game. Instantly hit with multiple game currencies which sucks any joy out of a game like this. Additionally, these developers use Ai. You are paying for NOTHING. You are not supporting hard work or integrity. If you don't care enough about your game to actually make it why should I bother playing it any longer. ### 1/5 — disappearing coins *2026-08-08, version 1.28.0* over 80,000 coins disappeared overnight this is unacceptable, especially as a VIP. they must be restored ### 1/5 — Good game if you want to pay $$$ *2026-08-07, version 1.28.0* Variety of rooms to decorate, but very limited options for lighting, fabrics and accessories. Negative balance model - you will spend many coins and get too few back. I spent $14 for coins and gems and it was gone in two days. You have to many watch ads to earn extra spins, or more coins than the small amount given. I am discouraged from playing because I will not spend more money so I basically will have to wait days to earn enough coins to complete a design. Like many others have mentioned, the voting seems random and designs that don’t follow the guidelines can get higher points than ones that follow the client’s requirements for a specific room. The music also has a faint, weird, annoying noise as it plays. ### 1/5 — Totally fake voting *2026-08-02, version 1.28.0* I have noticed that when I have exact designs as the other designers they get higher scores than my design, it seems this is rigged… you get low scores if you don’t use diamonds. Don’t buy anything extra! Don’t fall victim to spending money to achieve higher scores! ### 1/5 — Venue *2026-08-01, version 1.28.0* Loved making all the designs choices right up until you had to have enough points to continue. To frustrating! Deleted the app ### 1/5 — Too expensive *2026-08-01, version 1.28.0* After 1 year.. still doesn’t have balanced coins. I should be able to still play the game without having to pay for coins. It’s a good game but I can’t play it because I don’t have enough coins… ### 1/5 — Can’t Play Unless You Pay *2026-07-31, version 1.28.0* At first I really loved this game. It was a lot of fun, especially for me since I love decorating. However, after 3 days of playing I ran out of coins in the game and sadly you don’t make enough coins in return for how much you pay to creating the venues. It doesn’t even make sense. In real life if you spent money to decorate a venue, you would earn the money you spent plus the cost of labor. I get this is a game but they need to create a better balance so that you earn enough from each venue to keep playing the game. This is yet another selfish “pay to play” game. I will NEVER spend my real money to play a game so this is getting deleted. I would have given the game a 5 star rating but unfortunately it’s unplayable unless you put your hard-earned money into the game. ### 1/5 — Commercial *2026-07-27, version 1.28.0* First off, why did yall delete my review ? Because it’s unacceptable. But as I was saying before yall deleted it , there no x on y’all’s add at all . How do yall want me to get out of the add . Now because of this stupid add of y’all’s/yours , I have to reset my game 🙄🙄 ### 1/5 — Jeu intéressant mais très décevant…. *2026-07-24* Très déçu de ce jeu…. Il est intéressant au début de réaliser plusieurs projets, les meubles, les objets et les décorations sont bien réalisé et ils sont très jolies mais malheureusement la récompense après chaque réalisation de projets est beaucoup trop petites pour pouvoir avancer dans ce jeu. Au bout d’un certain niveau il est impossible de continuer à réaliser des projets car les projets deviennent de plus en plus cher mais la récompense n’augmente jamais. J’espère que des améliorations seront réalisées surtout pour ce qui est de la récompense. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Impressed *2026-08-25, version 1.29.0* Very good ### 5/5 — Membership Pricing *2026-08-17, version 1.29.0* I love this app. I wish that the prices of the VIP memberships were not so expensive. I would love it if we were able to have more affordable options- cheaper than what is being offered now. ### 5/5 — Requests *2026-08-14, version 1.29.0* Hi, I’ve been playing this game for a bit and one thing I’ve noticed is that the item pricing is far to high for the amount of money you get after completing a room. The game doesn’t stay enjoyable for long because of this. I think it would be best if you added optional minigames to parts of the game. It would make the game more playable long term and raise reviews. Besides that, great game . ### 5/5 — So beautiful!! *2026-08-14, version 1.29.0* Very relaxing! This game is absolutely perfect for relaxation and unwinding. When I first got them game, I wasn’t sure if it would be worth it but it totally was! ### 5/5 — Relaxing *2026-08-13, version 1.29.0* Choices to create what you want iis great. ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-08-10, version 1.29.0* Nice app, interesting themes and different angles to design. The background music is calming too ### 5/5 — Venue *2026-08-06, version 1.28.0* The game is great but you run out of money very quickly! Totally worth downloading though!!! ### 5/5 — Great job *2026-08-05, version 1.28.0* Love this game it’s really good ### 5/5 — Best Design Game *2026-08-03, version 1.28.0* Best design game there is! You can actually make good designs without having to pay an insane amount of money! Very cute and stylish as well with lots of options! ### 5/5 — Great *2026-08-02, version 1.28.0* It’s a really fun app, I love playing it but its kinda annoying that we have coins and diamonds because after the first one or two u start spending A LOT of coins and diamonds and they can run out pretty easily. But it's still a great game so I would still recommend it 😊 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
