Levels are fun, I guess, but after every 1-2 levels you’re hit with an ad which isn’t bad but for a game that was advertised as “no ads” I expect no ads and I’m not paying a monthly subscription to remove the ads when the developers ADVERTISED it as no ads via other games. ### 2/5 — 今まで1番良い *2025-03-30, version 1.0.8* 私は、無料で遊ばせてもらってるんだから広告は仕方ないと思う派。 ただ、やたら長い、フリーズする、多すぎるのは嫌。 こちらのゲーム、センチ、短いサクサク進める。。お勧めです。 と、思ったが、無料広告見てゲーム進めたり、❤ﾗｲﾌ使用しようとすると真っ暗画面になり進めない！ いちいちいちいちアプリ落とさないと！ 始めてふつかめだが、アンスト検討中!! ### 4/5 — Great *2024-12-28, version 1.0.8* Take my mind off negative thoughts. ### 4/5 — Bug *2024-12-11* at level 200 when the next difficult level number 35 opens, it still hasn't opened, I'm already at level 300 ### 2/5 — No “FAIL” Blasts *2024-12-01, version 1.0.8* I have downloaded and tried maybe eight “unscrew” games, and deleted them. They are all quite similar, but this one has the one detail I was looking for – there is no loud blaring attack, telling me I FAILED if I take time to think. I’m only on level 15, so I’ll come back if I discover that this was a mistake. —- Well, that didn’t take long. A few levels later, it became impossible. I admit, there is no loud blaring attack, but even though I had “bought” an extra screw to complete one game, about two seconds later the game crashed because I was out of time. I don’t understand why the developer thinks this makes a game attractive.. I play to relax and have fun, not to continually be told. I have failed. This one is about to be deleted as well. ### 3/5 — After a certain level? Be prepared to spend $ or watch ads. Constantly. *2024-11-14, version 1.0.8* I really like this game because it challenges me to problem solve but at Level 171 I am infuriated at how I have to watch multiple ads with every level. This game is designed to require you to spend time watching ads or to spend money. I refuse to spend money on a game. Yet beyond a certain level you cannot solve the puzzle without use of the locked holes or a tool (hammer, undo, screwdriver). There are three puzzles per level. The fastest way to solve a more complicated puzzle at this point involves unlocking all holes or using tools - both at the price of a “ticket” or watch an ad (some are up to almost 2 minutes!). If you want tickets? You have to buy them. It takes a lot to win just one. The cheapest option is $3 for 10. By the time you’re at the level I am? You’ll spend 3 tickets or more per level. You don’t have to be a mathematical savant to see how quickly that adds up. It is literally impossible to avoid the need for tickets after you get past the most basic puzzles. I’m solving one right now with 30+ bolts to move and only 3 unlocked holes. I’m writing this review as yet another ad plays because it’s 90 seconds long. Be prepared to see the “Royal Match”, “Match Factory”, and “Township”ads many, many, many, many, many times. How do I know the names? Because I’ve seen the ads so many times. So. Many. Many. Many. Times. And don’t be surprised when some ads are close to 2 minutes long. They tend to stack two in a way you can’t close them out and get back to the puzzle. You just have to wait. Also be prepared to run out of time with the “hard level” unless you pay to buy tickets to unlock tools and/or holes. In other words, you can run out of time more often than you think. Golly gee whatever can I do to not forfeit? Well, watch an ad so you can get another 60 seconds of solving time, of course!!! So bring a hefty wallet or bring even more patience. Also the purpose of the coins? You can’t use them to unlock anything, you can’t use them to “buy” the tickets you need to unlock anything, you just amass them to buy yourself … access to a different kind of puzzle? It would be SO MUCH BETTER of a game to be able to use coins to unlock holes or to use tools. ### 1/5 — Spiel geht nicht *2024-10-27* Zusatzspiel der Inseln geht nicht weiter und es gibt keinerlei Möglichkeit einen Support zu kontaktieren. ### 2/5 — Norriemca *2024-10-24, version 1.0.8* Too long ROYAL MATCH ada ### 1/5 — Одна реклама! *2024-10-18* Все сделано так, что вы вынуждены смотреть беспонтовую рекламу!!! Не скачивайте, разочарование к вам придет обязательно!!! Играть бесплатно вообще нет возможности!! Пользователя разработчики держат за идиотов, на любом шаге , вы будете смотреть рекламу!!! Не рекомендую!!! Ну хотя бы была возможность играть, и между уровнями смотреть ролики с рекламой, но нет, тут реклама везде, игра так устроена, что вы будете ее смотреть, потому что уровни ограничены временем, а его, сто процентов, не хватит и вас заставят смотреть рекламу! Удаляю!! Жадность разрабов не знает границ!!!!! ### 1/5 — Still full of ads even after paying to remove ads *2024-10-17, version 1.0.8* This game has 3 rounds for each level. The first two rounds are easy and a waste of time. You usually fail in round three. If you repeat, you have to do rounds 1 & 2 again, which will take as long as watching an ad to get extra bolt hole. It IS designed to get you to watch the ads. Disappointing!! ### 1/5 — Flag icon *2024-10-08, version 1.0.8* Taiwan is not China!! Why give me China flag!! ### 1/5 — I WANT A REFUND! *2024-10-05, version 1.0.8* There is NO WAY TO WIN this game without opting for endless ads. I PAID FOR THE AD-FREE VERSION but I can't get past level *4* unless I either empty my wallet to pay for the HALF DOZEN ADS PLUS BUYING THE "REMOVE SCREW" OPTION MORE THAN TWICE. And that's on LEVEL 4! I have no idea where they get this high rating. They have either gotten their family to write them after getting all ads comped or those who wrote ad have bottomless purses. There IS NO TECHNICAL SUPPORT PAGE, NOR DOES THEIR "HELP" SITE SHOW ANYTHING BUT A Basic privacy statement. There is NO WAY TO ACCESS THE COMPANY. GIVE ME BACK MY MONEY THAT YOU STOLE FROM ME PRETENDING THAT I CAN GET BY WITHOUT ADS. Now, if you want to play a REAL game without ads, go to "Nuts and Woods" by FOMO. Their game REALLY HAS NO ADS except unless you need an extra hole, but you rarely need one and you'll get unlimited attempts to try the one you're stuck on before you have to go for ad-based help. BUT NOT THIS GAME. THIS ONE AND ONE OTHER THAT I'M ABOUT TO LEAVE AN IDENTICAL REVIEW FOR BECAUSE THEY MUST BE FAMILY OR SOMETHING BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2026-03-23, version 1.0.8* Although it says there are no ads. There are. Delete it. ### 1/5 — How do I get rid of the timer?? *2025-08-30, version 1.0.8* I just want it to get steadily harder, not go back and forth. And I do not want a timer. ### 1/5 — Quá tệ *2025-04-20, version 1.0.8* Quá tệ, nhiều quảng cáo, ức chế ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2024-12-30, version 1.0.8* I spent a lot of money on this app and when I try to get support there is no where to get a hold of anyone. This app has took all of the tickets that I purchased and the master pass I regret ever using this app. Spend money here if u want to and be a fool. Just know if u have a problem there is no way to get a hold of anyone. ### 1/5 — ADS, ADS ADS *2024-12-19, version 1.0.8* This game tops any other I’ve played, by interrupting and between levels ads…you even watch an ad while launching the game! Game play is great, but deleting for obvious reason! ### 1/5 — Challenge won’t work *2024-12-18, version 1.0.8* I see other people with this problem back in October but game developers haven’t fixed. I can’t move on in the challenge, it says get to level 200 to move to next challenge, I am way past that and haven’t move on. Obviously developers don’t care. ### 1/5 — 広告多い *2024-11-23, version 1.0.8* 広告多い遊ぶ価値なし ### 1/5 — Needs to be more challenging *2024-11-20, version 1.0.8* Been playing a week or so and I’m on level 90 something and there’s no challenge to it, the levels are the same as when I first started, yes there is tons of ads way to many but the ads are more fun to play then the game, so I don’t mind (well I do but…..) you say why don’t I download the games from the ads then, RIGHT?? Well the games are really not what they advertise, when downloaded it’s nothing like the ads,,,, so sad we have to put up with all this just to find a little few minutes a day to relax. Oh and by the way, the pic the show on this game I haven’t seen any of that, I WOULD LOVE TO PLAY THOSE LEVELS/ puzzles what ever they are called, but nope nothing like that. ### 1/5 — My screen is black - why? *2024-11-07, version 1.0.8* I can’t play coz my screen is black. Can’t see the game. I paid for this. Refund me!!!! ### 1/5 — Unaufgeforderte Werbung *2024-11-01* Ich bin gern bereit, Werbung für Extras anzusehen. Aber beim Spielen unterbrochen zu werden, weil Werbung abgespielt wird, die man nicht selbst gestartet hat, mag ich nicht. Deshalb keine gute Bewertung. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — chơi ok *2026-04-29, version 1.0.8* Ok ### 5/5 — MY *2025-01-07, version 1.0.8* I PLAYED THIS GAME SO MUCH THAT I COULDNT LEAVE MY COUCH, I COULDNT EAT CUZ I GOG SI DISTACTED, great game tho five stars ### 5/5 — Fun *2024-11-26, version 1.0.8* Easy to restart if needed. Fun. Good for seniors. I’m 60…. ### 5/5 — Challenge *2024-10-28, version 1.0.8* Why won’t the challenge work? It says I have to beat level 200 to move on to challenge 35, but I’m on level 421. I see another player was having the same issue over a month ago. ### 5/5 — Good game *2024-10-26* Very good game ### 5/5 — Game *2024-10-21, version 1.0.8* Great game to play ### 5/5 — Best thing ever *2024-10-18, version 1.0.8* This.
