The app is not so engaging as to justify that. ### 2/5 — Freezes *2026-07-25, version 2.57* I just downloaded this game 10 minutes ago and it has frozen at least 5 times. ### 3/5 — Low prizes *2026-07-24, version 2.57* Game doesn’t pay enough for winning a contest and when you spin it pays 10 easy more than anything else. It just never pays much for anything! ### 2/5 — fun but freezes *2026-07-12, version 2.57* im not sure why but this game, and only this game, always freezes. it makes it really hard to enjoy playing it because itll force me to turn my phone off just to be able to reboot the app because itll freeze me onto the screen 💔 ### 3/5 — Long chapters *2026-07-06, version 2.56* It is really fun but it takes soooo long to get to the next chapters ### 4/5 — Good game, one flaw *2026-06-19, version 2.55* It would be great if there weren’t an ad after every single level you finish. Other than that, I adore this game. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2026-06-05, version 2.55* THIS game is just 10/10 it’s perfect for my road trips or when I’m bored just something to pass the time by ### 5/5 — Had to delete *2026-06-05, version 2.55* Kept freezing so had to remove ### 3/5 — Doesn’t always reward you *2026-05-26, version 2.54* It is a great game, except I never got rewarded for completing Chapter 3 and 16. Very disappointing since I spent a lot of time playing the game. Also, so many ads. It also freezes and crashes sometimes. ### 5/5 — My rating *2026-05-25, version 2.54* This game is so good! I love all the tricky puzzles. I recommend! ☺️ ### 2/5 — App freezes up *2026-05-21, version 2.53* Fun play but have to keep forcing the app closed due to freezing — currently on level 757 (started occurring around 750) ### 4/5 — Fun *2026-05-16, version 2.52* It is fun but also challenging that is why I put it as a 4/5 it is very fun ### 5/5 — Randy *2026-04-25, version 2.51* MR UNCLE RANDY ### 5/5 — butta *2026-04-20, version 2.51* great true game ### 3/5 — Excessive ads *2026-04-15, version 2.51* It’s a cool game and it can help past time but I noticed that once I got to the 2nd chapter, theres an ad after each level which makes the game unbearable ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-08-19, version 2.58* So many ads, can’t even beat 1 level before getting an ad. Not Tung approved ### 1/5 — Word spells *2026-07-05, version 2.56* This app needs a serious update. It won’t even work now. Gotta delete. ### 1/5 — Why *2026-06-01, version 2.55* I was charges 2.13 just to download a free app. What gives ### 1/5 — Верните ведьмочку! *2026-05-30* Верните ведьмочку на экран победы 😡 **Developer response:** Благодарим вас за отзыв! Постараемся учесть ваше пожелание в будущих версиях приложения. Желаем приятной игры ❤️ ### 1/5 — Werbung *2026-05-06* Dauerhaft Werbung eingeblendet und videos abgespielt nach jeder Mission **Developer response:** Es tut uns leid, dass Sie sich über die Werbung geärgert haben. Die Werbung ist notwendig, damit wir das Projekt weiterentwickeln und unterstützen sowie das Spiel weiterhin kostenlos anbieten können. Wir möchten Sie außerdem darauf hinweisen, dass Sie die Werbung durch einen einmaligen Kauf im Spiel deaktivieren können. ### 1/5 — Странное приложение *2026-01-22* Если бы мы знали что это такое, но мы не знаем что это такое - пришлось удалить. Первое- слишком много рекламы, слишком мало фишек прикольных. Хочешь получить фишку = смотри видео. Столько времени своей жизни я еще не тратила Второе - открываешь игру, вылетает сразу. Ну и самое неприятное - телефон полностью завис на игре. Перетрухала. Удалила сразу, как разблокировала экран. **Developer response:** Сожалеем, что вас огорчила реклама. Она необходима, чтобы мы могли продолжать развивать и поддерживать проект, а также сохранять бесплатным доступ к игре. В игре есть возможность отключения рекламы через покупку. По поводу зависаний хотим уточнить, что наша команда уже работает над решением, чтобы в будущей версии игры проблема была устранена. Надеемся, что вы ещё дадите игре шанс, и она сможет порадовать вас 🙌 ### 1/5 — Zu viel Werbung *2026-01-22* An sich ein richtig gutes Spiel aber nach wirklich jedem Spiel Werbung ist schon echt schade und da macht das Spiel nicht mehr Spaß. Edit: Ich finde es nicht in Ordnung nach wirklich jedem Spiel Werbung zeigen zu lassen und dann zu sagen, dass man für eine Deaktivierung noch Geld zahlen muss ist dreist. Ihr bekommt trotzdem Geld wenn ihr Werbung zeigt, aber das so dreist viel zu gestalten ist krass. Also ich hab das Spiel direkt nach paar Levels wieder gelöscht. Schade. **Developer response:** Es tut uns leid, dass Sie sich über die Werbung geärgert haben. Sie ist notwendig, damit wir das Projekt weiterentwickeln und unterstützen und das Spiel weiterhin kostenlos anbieten können. Das Spiel bietet die Möglichkeit, die Werbung durch einen Kauf zu deaktivieren. Wir hoffen, dass Sie dem Spiel eine zweite Chance geben und dass es Ihnen gefallen wird 🙌 ### 1/5 — Crazy with interruptions & ads *2026-01-20, version 2.44* Could not tolerate this for more than two days, I did my best to deal with the nonstop ads and promotions and interruptions, but it just got to be too much. I had to delete it. You can never complete more than maybe two puzzles before it asked you to watch a long ad or promo, to buy something.... ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2025-12-24, version 2.41* I love playing the game but it is entirely too many ad disruptions. Very, very excessive and more than frustrating. ### 1/5 — Ad central *2025-12-24, version 2.41* Ad after every level. Very annoying not enjoyable because of that ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun game!! *2026-08-20, version 2.58* I love this game. ### 5/5 — Word Spells *2026-08-18, version 2.58* Love, Love, Love Game ### 5/5 — Agilidad mental *2026-08-07, version 2.58* Es un juego que te ase pensar mucho es excelente ### 5/5 — Good *2026-08-06, version 2.58* Good ### 5/5 — Good games *2026-08-02, version 2.58* Easy fun game will get more challenging as you progress.
