Movements can be tricky but once you get it it's actually fun.

An abusive relationship

I understand this is an old game that hasn't been updated in forever, but the issues have nothing to do with updates. How many times do you have to try to place an item before it drops in? It makes no sense that it takes 5 or more tries. I don't know why I let it torture me. It's a cute game but the frustration level is higher than the level of fun.

This game is disappointing

This game is disappointing because there is not many models to do and don't know if there is plans on adding more or not.

I understand your concerns about the limited models. Developers often use player feedback to prioritize new features, so your input is valuable. Hopefully, we’ll see some exciting additions soon! Thanks

Good concept

I really want to like this game, but it is not fully functional. Some pieces are grayed out and I can’t get them without using hints. I am now out of hints and out of ads to earn hints, so most of the puzzles are stuck unfinished. Please update to fix as this could be a really good game.

Hard to piece the pieces together

You will need to move the pieces extremely close for it to attach. Sometime it takes forever for it to attach even if you used the hint. Fun becomes frustration.

Unplayable! :(

Excited to download because I am a big fan of 3-D games, but on the first puzzle, I am unable to complete it. There is an ad across the bottom that makes it difficult to see and access the pieces. Even after you work to get around that, the last piece is off the side, and after trying for about 2-3 minutes, it is simply impossible to grab it. I dealt with three separate ads to try and find some sort of settings to change the aspect ratio or something, to no avail! This is unfortunate because it might be a good game…where are you developers? (I will be deleting for now, but will check in again and update my review if this gets fixed)

Not workable

Cannot access pieces - hidden off screen and cannot move them onto screen enough to put them in place.

SEARCH UP PUZZRAMA

I must admit I was a really big fan of pocket world 3D but unfortunately I uninstalled it to create more space for school related apps. I recently came back in search for the game and I could not find it anywhere so I thought that it was just me forgetting the name of the app BUT NO! There are plenty of people in search of the amazing game and luckily for you I found dupe that is equally as fun, it is called Puzzrama. I know it is no PW3D but it is a great alternative!

It sounds like you really enjoyed Pocket World 3D! It's disappointing when a favorite app isn't available anymore, but it's great that you found an alternative in Puzzrama. Exploring new games can often lead to unexpected enjoyment. What do you like most about Puzzrama compared to Pocket World 3D?

Clunky and annoying

I was an avid fan of Pocket World 3D until Apple in its infinite wisdom removed the game from the App Store. I was really hoping this one would be a nice alternative but it just doesn’t compare. The models themselves aren’t particularly interesting, the game has no visual appeal, and the pieces are hard to drag into place. After 20 minutes I was so aggravated I gave up. In PW3D, I was able to solve puzzles that were more complicated than these in half the time. I really wanted to like this app, but I don’t think I’ll bother playing again. Oh well.

Thanks for the feedback. We apologize for not providing you an excellent gaming experience. We'll look into it and sort it out.

Needs work

While it is a good idea in theory, the developers did a terrible job executing it. Some of the pieces disappear and you have to scroll offscreen to find them, and when you try to place things, they don’t feel like setting. This is another case of the ads over glorifying the game. Quite unfortunate.

Awful

I thought this game would be like Pocket World 3D but alas I am mistaken.
The pieces don’t fall into place easily and it takes quite a few turns to get them to stick.
Download Pocket World 3D and you will really see how a 3D puzzle should be.

Agree...can’t get to some pieces

Game is fun but not all the pieces are available...at least one of them slides off the screen. I’ve tried sort of holding the screen over with one hand and trying to get the item, but that’s too frustrating and kludgy a way to do it. Please fix....game has lots of potential!!!

Ads are everywhere

Just full of ads. Load game ads run start level ads run back out of a level ads run. I don’t know how they got a high rating for a very poor game.

Don’t bother downloading this app. There’s A LOT wrong with it!

I made the mistake of paying $6.99 for this app. Apparently, the devs of this app are super greedy because not only is this app expensive, but they want you to pay to remove the ads that come up every few minutes while you’re playing. The ads are EVERYWHERE in this app! You have a banner at the top of your screen, not to mention the ad that plays right after you solve your puzzle, and they also have it programmed where ads will play on a time loop. There was even a fee ($4.99) to remove the ads, even AFTER I had paid $7 to play it.

There are also a few other things wrong with this app. The puzzle is really small, meaning that you can barely see where some very small things are supposed to go, plus the controls are shaky. There were many times I would try to grab a piece to place and I wasn’t able to grab the piece with my finger, it would still stay in the tray. Also, trying to actually place the pieces, after you’re finally able to grab the darn thing, were really hard to position them (so the piece could place itself on the object/puzzle), you have to wait until you can hover the piece and see it flashing. Most of the time, you’re looking for the piece to do that, but some of the pieces are so small, that you don’t notice it flashing, or it fails to flash. Furthermore, you can place a piece where you think it belongs, no flashing, then when you find that “sweet spot”, it is far away from where it is supposed to be.

The only thing that was good about this app, which I really didn’t mind, but other people might, was that you don’t have to pay for hints. Unfortunately, you’ll have to watch an ad to get some hints, and the amount of hints you receive varies every time.

My overall recommendation to the devs of this app: Look, I COMPLETELY understand that programming an app like this takes time and money, however, put yourself in the consumers shoes and certainly DON’T do the following:
1. Overcharge - your app is $7, that’s way too much money for an app that only has about 20 puzzles to complete. Lower your price and you’ll see A LOT more people.
2. Ads - placing ads in your app and asking for money for your app is seen by consumers as greedy! Not to mention, the amount of ads and the frequency that they’re played, in addition to the fee to remove the ads. Instead, offer the app for free, but play the ads after every two puzzles. You can still have the in-app purchase for removing ads, but lower your price. A lot of games will remove ads for a lot less than the price you’re asking and not play them as frequently either.
3. Make the sensitivity of managing/maneuvering pieces a lot easier for the player to handle. It was immensely frustrating to try to grab the piece and not being able to move it to be able to place. Also, you might want to make your puzzles a little larger, just being able to zoom in/out helps a little bit, but not as much as having the actual object that you are trying to put together be a little bit larger.

Can’t get to some pieces!

The game would be great but you can’t get to some pieces when they are on the far left or right end of the selection box at the bottom, it won’t scroll there and it is very frustrating. Please fix!!

Could be better

Is extremely hard to place objects in extreme mode. If there was a way to tilt it it would be easier.
