I would pay to remove ads but I don’t think the app has that option. ### 3/5 — Use an adblocker *2026-01-18, version 2.07* Not a bad game, but the ads show up so often and grind gameplay to a screeching halt. If you don’t have an adblocker, this game is straight up unplayable ### 2/5 — Too Many Ads *2026-01-04, version 2.07* I originally loved this game, but the lately there has been ads so often that it has made playing this game annoying. The ads make me NOT want to download the game it is advertising. ### 4/5 — Not bad ig *2025-11-16, version 2.07* So I found about this like EVERYONE DID… Ryan Trahan :P. Fun game but ads are annoying ### 3/5 — great game *2025-10-28, version 2.07* great game i found out about them from ryan trahan love the game too many adds ### 3/5 — Ryan!!! *2025-10-15, version 2.07* Love the game. Too many ads and the ads get worse with the levels. Some Ads are totally not appropriate for a mum nor a 4+ age group. ### 4/5 — Prepare to RAGE *2025-10-08, version 2.07* I absolutely LOVE this game, it’s great for killing time and letting go of that inner RAGE. Yes, I do crash out on a block game. BUT that just shows lay it’s pretty good, all tho be warned there are ALOT of adds. ### 3/5 — No ad-free mode available *2025-09-18, version 2.07* Love the simplicity of the gameplay. Would love even more to support a company that clearly knows how to give back to the community… but this game needs a purchase/ad-free option. We all know this caps your income ceiling per user but there are plenty of identical games that have ad-free available. ### 3/5 — WHY SO MANY ADS?!?!? *2025-08-29, version 2.07* I very much do enjoy playing this game but there’s an “ad break” after every 4 blocks placed down… it’s crazy ### 3/5 — Fun game, terrible ads *2025-08-29, version 2.07* I love the look and play of this game. I love the minimal amount of brain power it takes. It’s a fun game to play a few turns or for a long time. But the ads!! If you are on a winning streak, ad, if you get stuck, ad, if you lose the level, ad! They are sometimes a minute long! I would honestly pay to remove the ads but that is not an option! So fun game beware of annoying seemingly random occurring long ads ### 3/5 — Too many ads *2025-08-26, version 2.07* Game is alright to play but too many ads and had one pop up that was inappropriate for kids/ teens ### 2/5 — Block puzzle *2025-08-25, version 2.07* Way too many ads that are too long and too often ### 2/5 — Fun game, way too many ads *2025-08-20, version 2.07* This was fun, until I kept getting ads that I had to watch. No way around them. Can’t pay for the game to remove ads. And ad removal button doesn’t show up for several seconds, then it takes you to the App Store, then you can click out of it. Usually three clicks and 10 seconds or so before continuing on with your game. And this happened about every 30 seconds or every 10-20 moves. I played the game maybe 10 times before it was just too much to want to deal with anymore. ### 3/5 — Ads *2025-08-11, version 2.07* Fun game that I found through Ryan Trahan. Unfortunately there’s been a huge increase in ads. It makes it unplayable. ### 2/5 — WAY Too Many ADS! *2025-08-11, version 2.07* It’s totally ridiculous! You move six blocks and BAM, AD. Six blocks BOOM, another AD. I’m this close 👌🏼 to deleting the app ### 2/5 — Too many ads *2025-08-02, version 2.07* I enjoyed this game for a bit and then all of the sudden they have started inserting ads after every few moves so the game has become unplayable. Put the ads before/after games but not in the middle when you are literally dragging a block to the game board. I finally had to find a competitor game to download because this truly is a fun game. Other competitions don’t have so many ads. ### 3/5 — Way too many ads!!! *2025-08-01, version 2.07* I live this game but there is an ad break after I move 5 blocks. It's kinda ridiculous. Ended up ago playing it because it was too much. ### 4/5 — Fun way to kill time! *2025-07-30, version 2.07* This game is a very fun way to kill time if you are bored and/or have nothing to do. However, there is a ad every time after a game. Now, I understand that they want to capitalize on all the attention their getting form Ryan Trahan’s 50 in 50 series, and I know they have to find someway to get a good amount of money since there are no in game transactions, but COME ON. The ads are EXCESSIVE. Nonetheless, the game is awsome and I would recommend it. ### 4/5 — The game is rigged *2025-07-30, version 2.07* I feel like In a true strategy game, it should come down to strategy not luck. Sometimes I’m cooking and then it gives me three impossible pieces to put in without ending the game. And it’s like I didn’t lose because I couldn’t think it’s because it was impossible. I low key want to screenshot to chat gbt and say is this even possible . My last time 80% of the map is open and it gives me an impossible move. Solid game, but I think you should get a couple of redos or something . It’s discouraging to be on a hot streak up to 10000 points and get an impossible move. ### 2/5 — Too many ads *2025-07-29, version 2.07* I don’t mind an occasional ad here or there but after every single round and in the middle of a game is ridiculous. Ads aside, the game itself is fun and addicting. I’d happily pay a few bucks for an ad-free experience if the devs offered it. ### 2/5 — Ad breaks *2025-07-28, version 2.07* This game is really fun but please the ad break in the middle of my game is a buzz kill and makes me want to stop playing. I’m fine watching the ad once I’ve finished the game but in the middle is just excessive ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Can't stand the constant ads! *2025-12-22, version 2.07* I like the game, but stopped playing because it breaks in to show an ad EVERY 60 SECONDS! Incredibly annoying! Why isn't there a premium no-ad version?! ### 1/5 — So many ads *2025-08-05, version 2.07* 2 Ads every game and there 30 seconds long ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2025-07-30, version 2.07* I understand companies need ads to keep their business running. There’s an ad here literally every 2 minutes and they’re a minute+ long- deleting the game bc I spent more time with ads than I do the game itself. ### 1/5 — TOO MANY ADS *2025-07-29, version 2.07* Prior to Ryan Trahan’s video blowing up ‘Staple games’ downloads, the games were actually fun and relaxing. However, now it’s like every 4 times you click the screen there’s a 5 minute ad. Makes the game useless and annoying. ### 1/5 — Ugh *2025-07-26, version 2.07* I love this game, but the ads are incessant uncontrollable and annoying ### 1/5 — Fun Game Ruined by Constant Ad Interruptions! *2025-07-24, version 2.07* I found the game bc of the 50 states series. Really enjoyed the first time I played. It had a fair number of ads, but NOW there are so many ads, it’s unplayable. Every few moves, including when you’re in the middle of a physical move, it jumps to a VERY LONG “ad break,” leaving you to forget where you were going to put the piece. So annoying. It doesn’t even wait til you’re “between” rounds/levels, it interrupts you mid-play! I thought I was supporting a generous company, but they ruined a fun game with their greed, will be deleting the app. ### 1/5 — Ads every 15-30 seconds? *2025-07-24, version 2.07* I get it, you guys have a ton of people downloading your games, but they are unplayable. So lame. ### 1/5 — Too Many Ads *2025-07-22, version 2.07* The amount of ads are insane…and they won’t even add an ad-free version either? ### 1/5 — Used to be a good game, now too many ads *2025-07-22, version 2.07* I don’t know what happened. There used to be no ads, now you’re bombarded with them every minute, it’s insane. ### 1/5 — ADS ADS ADS *2025-07-22* Had to delete this as the ads were unbearable. So frequent i couldn’t actually enjoy the game. It’s a shame because the was actually goodz ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-02-02, version 2.08* Great game ### 5/5 — Wish i could buy a ad free version *2025-10-19, version 2.07* To many adds just let me buy it ### 5/5 — My family is obsessed *2025-10-14, version 2.07* We found this game out by Ryan trahan yesterday when we were watching his 50 states series and we saw him playing and he said if anyone could beat me we will give more money to the fundraiser and even though the series was long done we thought we’d give it a shot. We are now obsessed with this game and I would recommend it if you want to kill time or see how far you can get in a few days! ### 5/5 — I do enjoy this game so much BUT *2025-08-07, version 2.07* I have severe ADHD and I was looking for a game that helped and I found this from Ryan Trahan videos and I loved the game but I cannot afford to pay for the game without ads and you let me play like 1 game until I’m stuck with an ad for what feels like forever to me. I have a newborn child and my ADHD on top of the long sleepless nights puts me into such a dark place and I just want to focus on a silly block game to put me to sleep. I put 5 stars anyway because this game helps me when I have the 5 seconds without ads. Big,big fan! I just wish I had more time to mess up my choices of block placement and more time to process and alleviate my highly active brain with a game. I’m searching for stress relief so badly. ### 5/5 — Shout out *2025-07-28, version 2.07* Pls give me a shout out if you do I'll download all halls games say on the thing"give Lucy a shout out"pls 🩷Ryan Trahan 50 states ### 5/5 — Ryan Trahan *2025-07-25, version 2.07* So Fun could play forever Ryan is the best Yter ### 5/5 — Thank you for the donation! *2025-07-24, version 2.07* Ryan Trahan’s video showed me this game thank you for the donations!!!!! ### 5/5 — Good fun ! *2025-07-24, version 2.07* Enjoyed it, also downloaded for that $1 donation for Ryan’s 50 states in 50 days !
