### 3/5 — level 50 problem

*2026-08-01, version 1.2.1*

at lvl 50 it just stops for me, it freezes mid celebration and nothing the past 2 days i've tried have fixed it

### 3/5 — It’s alright

*2026-04-22, version 1.1.3*

It kept freezing when I got to level 17. Wouldn’t even let me finish.

### 4/5 — Frozen at level 6150.

*2025-08-03, version 1.1.2*

The game has refused to load the next level and keeps freezing once I complete level 6150.

### 4/5 — Review

*2025-04-30, version 1.1.0*

The commercials are annoying.

### 4/5 — This game

*2024-06-16, version 1.1.0*

Omg this game has been my favorite game since I got it

### 2/5 — Ads are getting tooooo longgggg.

*2024-06-08, version 1.1.0*

It used to be 5 secs. It’s annoying now!

### 4/5 — Good game

*2024-05-04, version 1.1.0*

Good game & reasonably priced. Need more background colors, liquid colors with glitter/bubbles, & tubes.

### 3/5 — Too many ads takes all the fun away

*2024-04-09, version 1.1.0*

I paid to remove ads but still get ads before each game or whenever I pause the game.

### 3/5 — A better game

*2023-10-24, version 1.1.0*

Should have move and time tracking

### 3/5 — Inexcusable ad situation makes me delete this game

*2023-04-19, version 1.1.0*

I made it to level 4450. I have already been long pondering why I keep playing this game given that most levels are so easy it's mindless mechanical tapping requiring no brain effort whatsoever. I wish one could choose types of games one could play. I liked only the ones where there are 14 containers with 4 levels in them — it really makes you pause and think, the game takes time, and even if you have to restart the level because you are stuck, it's not as annoying as those 5-container 6-level things which are sometimes embarrassingly easy (again, mindless tapping that is an unenjoyable waste of time), and sometimes you run into a dead end 5 seconds after starting it.

But today the game threw out an inexcusable faux pas — the ads no longer have a mute button. Sorry, but ads are annoying enough on their own, even to see 5 seconds of them. But being unable to turn the sound off & having to endure stupid 80s game jigs, farts, shooting, pinging, or unpleasant voices excitedly telling you something — that is really, but really too much.

So long, thanks for all the fish, but I'm deleting it.

### 2/5 — Want my $ back

*2023-04-14, version 1.1.0*

I made 2 purchases and the purchase didn’t happen. Remove ads & I’m still receiving ads
It was $1.99 & another for $2.99 
Neither function worked so I would like to be reimbursed

### 2/5 — Ads every second

*2023-03-01, version 1.1.0*

I like the game but there are so many ads I quit it. I finished the rounds fast so that made the ads so frequent. It also shut the sound of the audiobook I was listening to in another app so then I had to go press play again, then it would give me another ad just for going back into the game!

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2026-06-17, version 1.1.3*

Level 1200 is blocked

### 1/5 — frozen

*2026-02-24, version 1.1.3*

This app used to be a regular for me, and would happily give it 5 stars. Occasionally it would freeze on completion of a puzzle, with the sticker tape stuck in place. It has now frozen up so I can no longer go to the next puzzle. Restarting doesn't help.

### 1/5 — Awful ads

*2025-12-17, version 1.1.3*

Can’t touch the next button because of ads can’t move on to next level ads in the way. Gotta close and reopen the app often to get any progress.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-11-19, version 1.1.3*

Freezes up all the time and even rebooting doesn’t help. I’m deleting it.

### 1/5 — The game freezes

*2025-11-02, version 1.1.3*

The game freezes at level 350

### 1/5 — Paid for no ads

*2023-11-01, version 1.1.0*

I paid $3 for NO ADS. The next day, the ads were back, on the bottom of the screen and between every level. What a waste of money.

### 1/5 — Finished level and won’t move forward

*2023-10-25, version 1.1.0*

I close my program and open it and won’t advance.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2023-09-16, version 1.1.0*

I paid for no ads, but I’m still getting ads.

### 1/5 — L’application n’est pas reliée à un compte !

*2023-02-28, version 1.1.0*

Lorsque je change de téléphone je ne peux plus continuer à jouer au même niveau où je me suis arrêtée sur l’ancien appareil. S’il vous plaît pensez à y remédier . 😏😒😔😩😤

### 1/5 — Paid to remove ads, still showing ads

*2023-01-04, version 1.1.0*

Why do I see ads even when I paid to remove ads? 

The game is good and I’ll consider changing the rating if this gets sorted out.

### 5/5 — ارجو معرفة سبب التوقف اثناء اللعب و صبانة اللعبة رجاءاً

*2025-08-17, version 1.1.3*

التوقف على المرحلة 1700 و بعدها توقف على المرحلة 1750

### 5/5 — This game is awesome

*2025-01-20, version 1.1.0*

I downloaded this game a day before I wrote this and so far, I’m loving it! The levels are the right difficulty, there are less adds in the game then other water color sorting games, and the colors look amazing. 10/10

### 5/5 — Just enough challenge

*2024-01-21, version 1.1.0*

Not too easy=boring too hard= frustrating.

### 5/5 — Just what I need in a game.

*2023-07-15, version 1.1.0*

Not overly complex in the higher levels that it takes all the fun out. A great way to unwind, which is what I need. And the sound effects are so soothing!

### 5/5 — Fun game!

*2023-05-30, version 1.1.0*

This game is so fun and just like the adds. When I play this game it is not to hard and not to easy. 

There are barely any adds and when I do have adds they are short and they are not for another game so it doesn’t keep try in to make you buy something. 

Overall this game is great so I give it a 5/5 stars

### 5/5 — 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽

*2023-05-18, version 1.1.0*

Really nice app. Some levels are kinda tricky but once you leave it for some time and come back to it…u figure it’s not that complicated. One of the best apps to kill boredom 👌🏽

### 5/5 — I love this game
