### 3/5 — Glitch

*2018-12-25, version 1.3.1*

Update: as of Dec 2018 I still cannot restore my purchases from 2014 and the free hints still don’t work.

I love this game but now the free hints make you post to Facebook but once you post, you still have zero hints! So free hints don't work. Also when I try to restore my purchases, it just shows an ad about a "Journey With Water Colors" so I can't restore my purchases either. It's getting annoying.

### 5/5 — So much fun !!!

*2017-01-05, version 1.2.3*

So fun and addicting !

### 1/5 — "Free"

*2016-09-19, version 1.2.3*

Half of the entire game you have to pay for. It makes no sense! Why not just bump up hint costs instead of saying its a free game and having to pay to even play it! You should just make the freaking game free for anyone to play. What if there is a kid who's parents are low on money and want to play this masterpiece of a game.

### 4/5 — Last update didn't fix unlock issue

*2016-08-13, version 1.2.3*

I finished all levels but the next level still locked!

### 5/5 — Addictive - Challenging

*2016-05-25, version 1.2.1*

LOVE this game! I've played through all of the packs except the xmas one. Nicely designed and well planned. The levels and packs gradually work you through learning how to complete more complex mazes. Definitely recommend using a stylus.

### 5/5 — Entertaining!

*2016-03-31, version 1.2.1*

Just getting into it but so far it's been fun trying to figure out the colors!  I've only needed one hint so far!

### 2/5 — Fix this app

*2015-12-09, version 1.2*

1) I love this app. Very easy though but calming. 
2) the hint button and color button (to show what colors make what) don't work. I reinstalled the app and it doesn't work. Just won't show up. 
3) I HAVE HAD TO RESTART ALL MY LEVELS TWICE NOW BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SAVE MT PROGRESS ON FACE BOOK OR OTHERWISE. I AM INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATED THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES WHEN I JUST BEGAN THE NEXT GROUP OF LEVELS. if this happens again I really won't be playing again this is incredibly frustrating. The hints not working is fine but just the fact I have to keep restarting is incredibly frustrating and aggravating. I don't want to play the same easy levels over and over again.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2015-12-08, version 1.2*

Interesting and entertaining way to pass time.

### 1/5 — Crashing☹️

*2015-11-23, version 1.2*

Every time I open up the app it crashes😢 please fix this

### 3/5 — Good, but

*2015-11-10, version 1.2*

I like this game, but the "share on FB to get free hints" doesn't work/is frustrating. I'd rather watch a useless ad than bother friends with the spam on my timeline.
