### 1/5 — Woody Cross

*2026-07-30, version 2.24.0*

This game runs for maybe 3  -  4 minutes and then suddenly quits. Over and over and over on iphone 14 max pro w/ current ios.

### 1/5 — Turned into nothing but pop up ads time after time

*2026-06-27, version 2.23.0*

Used to be one of my favorites even with the ads between games. Now ads pop up time after time during the games. It’s relentless. Deleting this game

### 5/5 — Any New Level Coming?

*2026-03-08, version 2.23.0*

Hi! Love this game, however, I am wondering if there will be any new levels coming out soon? I had the  current app version installed on my phone as soon as it was released, but now I am unable to advance past level 6992. Once I complete that level, a box appears telling me to wait for an update to continue playing more exciting levels, but no new update has ever been made available. This notice has been popping up for months and months. Sadly, at this point, all I can play is the daily puzzle or play puzzle 6992 over and over again. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

### 5/5 — Update please

*2026-02-09, version 2.22.2*

Sorry ! I will remove this game due to not updating so long time !

### 3/5 — Levels

*2025-11-14, version 2.22.0*

I enjoy this game but they have not come out with new levels in months and I have completed all levels.

### 1/5 — 1 star and here is why

*2025-11-07, version 2.22.0*

-pay for ad removal and you are still forced to view their game ads for their store 
-guilds are dead and group play/chat is almost nonexistent 
-they repeatedly ask you to enable notifications and your only options are Yes and Ask me later, which means you can NEVER say no to notifications
-in game rating request of anything other than 5 is NOT recorded in the app store but instead they try and force you to send an email to support

### 1/5 — Update needed

*2025-10-22, version 2.22.0*

Been stuck at 6992 for months with no more games to play. What’s up?

### 1/5 — Terrible Service

*2025-10-20, version 2.22.0*

They will not add more games.  I’ve been playing this game for years and now at level 6290 it just stops.  It’s been two years and they won’t do an update to add more games.  But they undated their game so upset players can’t leave comments anymore.  They are just horrible people.   Don’t play this game.

### 5/5 — More levels needed

*2025-08-17, version 2.20.0*

Hi I reached level 6500 over a year ago when will there be more levels. I bought the game plus no ads. Now no more levels. Thank you, Pam

### 1/5 — No new levels.

*2025-07-23, version 2.20.0*

You really aren’t going to add any new levels are you? 
Despite your promise that new levels will be coming it’s now approaching two years. 
Disgracefully lazy. 
And don’t give me the generic reply where you claim new content is coming. 
Liars.
