### 5/5 — Really addictive game

Love this game, it gives you a choice of levels and also the option of changing the shapes to suit your requirements. Really well thought out well done and thank you. Still think this is one of the best wooden block games.

### 3/5 — Befuddled

*2019-08-30, version 2.2*

Enjoy the game but you come to realize the game itself is always ahead of you and you ‘win’ only if it allows it.

### 3/5 — Wooden Block

*2018-05-26*

It is a addictive game and I enjoy it.  However, in the easier games there are way too many stumps, and if so there are far less fire to destroy the stumps.  I let my grandchildren play this and they give up because of the stumps.

### 4/5 — Best Yet!

*2025-08-02, version 2.2*

Rotate!

### 4/5 — Wooden block puzzle

### 4/5 — Mr. T

*2019-08-13, version 2.2*

Fun game to play

### 4/5 — Love it but there’s a new problem

*2019-04-08*

I have been playing this game on my iPad for a year or more. It’s one of my favorite games, but in the last couple of weeks, when I tap on the blocks it hesitates before it responds. It never did this before, and it’s very distracting. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, but that didn’t help. I wish the developer would check this out. They also need to add an undo button. If they fix the problem, I would definitely give it 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Challenging

*2018-12-11*

I’ve found if I go too fast, or don’t think enough where to move, I get stuck!  The game ends.  I wish there was a take-back choice during a turn so we could change our minds.  Sometimes I accidentally drop a set of blocks.  Anyway, I like it and will keep playing.

### 4/5 — Best wooden puzzle game on app store today

*2018-11-26, version 2.2*

This is the best of the block puzzle games.  It is the only puzzle that lets me rotate pieces.  It also has adjustable difficulty.  +1 star.

Rotating pieces removed some of the challenge but the game is well balanced by stumps and matches.  Stumps get in the way and prevent rows from clearing.  Matches clear all pieces including the stumps from open squares.  +1 star.

The graphics and sounds are not elaborate like competitors on the app store.  Simplicity gets much longer battery life.  +1 star.

All of the puzzle games lack precision on the drag and drop.  When I lift a piece it moves out of proportion to my finger.  This has worked good on my iPhone but on iPad it is really off-putting.  -1 star.

This game supports both portrait and landscape modes so I can play it on my iPad with a keyboard attached!  +1 star.

### 4/5 — Addictive game

*2018-10-16*

I have been enjoying this game on my phone and iPad for weeks. Great challenges.

Some ideas to make it even better would be to award more points for clearing more than one line at a time. Maybe a bonus for clearing lines in two directions? Also the added bonus on clearing the whole slate?

Again, great fun but make the tougher plays more rewarding of points.

### 5/5 — Fun and Challenging

*2025-11-20*

There is a major problem with this game...it is addictive!  This version allows you to turn/flip the pieces but still challenging to get them to fit. Great game.

### 5/5 — Relaxing

*2022-11-18, version 2.2*

Nice way to unwind

### 5/5 — A True Classic!

*2022-02-14*

Time will fly by as you reach inner peace through patiently, rhythmically interconnect the blocks.   Your Theda waves will take over in your brain as your astral body floats off to nirvana… and just then you will receive a telling message from the beyond…you have a nine block and no place to put it.    You my friend, are stuck.    Such is the mystical nature of each humans’ lifetime.

### 5/5 — Stress buster

*2022-02-11, version 2.2*

My go-to when I’m frustrated

### 5/5 — Relaxing

*2021-07-12*

This game calms me for some reason. It seems repetitive but I actually enjoy figuring out the best way to clear blocks and burn solid wood blocks. Sometimes I have close calls but now my score is over 500,000! :)

### 5/5 — Waiting for an appointment?

*2021-06-12*

Great way to burn time, helps make or keep your brain a little sharper. You can shut it down & return later right where you left off.
