My only complaint is that after a while due to it’s difficulty, it gets repetitive and a bit too hard to play. ### 4/5 — DA WAE😏😬😬😬😬😬😏😬😽👍😄😜😝 *2018-02-03* This game is good BUT WAY TO MANY ADDS ITS ONE FRICKIN ADD JUST ONE!!!!! ### 4/5 — great *2017-09-29* It's a really fun game whether your just in a long car ride or sitting in a doctors office. But i had this app on my phone for so long that I bought all the new "themes". The only thing I'd change; is to add more themes because I've stopped playing the game, it became boring. ### 3/5 — Fun but... *2016-12-23* I have had this game on my phone for over a year. It is pretty fun and convenient when I'm riding the train or just waiting around. The only negative thing is that even though I bought the game, I started getting ads again a couple months ago. I'm deleting it today just for that. Bad move on their part. Greed is an ugly thing. ### 4/5 — Amazing game, but... *2016-08-18* This game is really fun. Like, REALLY fun. So fun I've been playing for a few months. But that's the problem. It has taken from day one to get 2,200 orbs for a new theme. Just lower the amount of orbs you need to get a theme and this would be a five star app. ### 3/5 — Nice game but a lot of ads *2015-12-04* The game itself is awesome but these ads are so annoying ### 4/5 — Great *2015-11-27* It's great, but ads pop up DURING the game and I can't play. ### 3/5 — good but need improvement *2015-10-27* Great app a lot of fun but could you some improvement its lagging and every time I click an add pops up and I can't get very far ### 2/5 — Love the Concept But.... *2015-10-17* I loved the concept of this game but it is so laggy it is almost impossible to play. ### 4/5 — 良いです *2015-09-15, version 1.2* ただよくない点を挙げるとするなら、何度かプレイしているうちにカクツクことと、ORBSを使って他のステージにしても特に変わった要素が感じられず、ただ見にくくなってしまったという二点を挙げたい。後者について特に宇宙ステージの青いORBSが背景と混ざって見えづらく、また、時折現われる惑星が壁と同じく当たってはいけないのか初見では判別できない。これらが改善されれば文句なしで☆5ですね。追：カクツキはアップデートで直りました。 ### 2/5 — Ehh *2015-09-14, version 1.1* It's a great, fun, and challenging game...but its continuously lagging when I'm playing and unresponsive. If fixed the game would be so much better ### 3/5 — Matt *2015-09-12, version 1.1* Je trouve le un peu basic voilà 😅 ### 5/5 — Soooo addictive, great game *2015-09-11, version 1.1* This game really is great. It is supper fun and is totally worth downloading. Totally a 5 star no doubt about it. If you are thinking about getting it you really should ### 5/5 — Crunchy, mind numbing perfection *2015-09-11* This game replaced Tetris for me - I am extremely picky about games but this is the kind of game I like. Challenging enough to keep me interested, but simple enough that I don't have to actually "think". When I just need to zone out and take a break, Zaga fits the bill. ### 5/5 — Addictive game! *2015-09-11, version 1.1* Can't stop playing! ### 5/5 — Good *2015-09-09, version 1.1* 😀😁😀 ### 5/5 — Да *2015-09-09, version 1.1* Лучшая ! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2020-12-28, version 1.2* Keeps crashing... ### 1/5 — beaucoup trop grosse *2015-12-20, version 1.2* l'app n'est pas dutout optimisée , elle fait 95% trop grande ... attention aux faux commentaires favorables !!! ### 1/5 — 。。。 *2015-12-10, version 1.2* 暇つぶしにいいけどズレが起きる時が多いからうざい。 ### 1/5 — Looser - Copied Hard Diamonds ! *2015-09-08, version 1.1* You copied the game from Google play! U don't deserve to be a developer at least give credit to the original developer. ### 1/5 — Fun game, stop asking me to rate it *2015-09-07, version 1.1* I'd give it 5 stars if it didn't continually ask me to rate it, even after I have already rated it. So here, have 1 star because you wanted a rating so bad. ### 1/5 — j'en ai déjà ma claque *2015-09-06, version 1.1* sur le papier ça a l'air cool... dans les faits, l'app fait du 1-3 fps par moments pour ne pas dire la plus part du temps, avec un bug qui m'empêche de jouer : les rayons s'écrase sur rien du tout. je ne peux plus jouer. ### 1/5 — Great! *2015-09-04, version 1.1* I love this game. The only reason for the one star is that they keep bugging me to make a review. Well they got what they wanted ;) ### 1/5 — Way too repetitive. *2015-09-03, version 1.1* I don't mind the ads, but the game just doesn't GO anywhere. Maybe endless games aren't for me, but if new challenges were appearing now and then, I think I'd enjoy it. ### 1/5 — Fine then... *2015-09-03, version 1.1* As soon as started the app: try Game of War. Immediately, during the tutorial, framerate dropped. Perhaps it's my iPhone5s. What I know for sure is that DURING the game, another add popped up. When I cancelled out, I was met with the game over screen. Game over indeed. ### 1/5 — うむ *2015-09-03, version 1.1* 開始10秒で飽きた ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Rad! *2018-08-07* This game is awesome! I enjoy playing it every day and I’ve gotten pretty dang good. It’s a hard learning curve and it takes time to get used to which I enjoyed. It would be cool to add in some other features/game modes/levels or more themes, but I still love it the way it is. ### 5/5 — Amazing just need some *2018-07-17* This is the best game yet it has a very addictive groove to it it just need a little extra. Like how color switch added bonus levels instead of just doing the same thing again and again add something new 😏. I play this game everyday and have fun with it continue to improve thank you for the wonderful game.🤩 ### 5/5 — 良い *2016-11-27, version 1.2* 1度ハマるとずっと辞められないです。 なんだかんだで1年間やってますねw ### 5/5 — 👍👍👍👍👍 *2015-09-18, version 1.1* Addictive, catchy background music 😜💕 ### 5/5 — ❤️ *2015-09-17* Love this game so much!!!! ### 5/5 — Truely a brilliant game !! *2015-09-14* This game for sure is a great work and worth to download it. Im wondering why it is not in a top chart with lots of reviews!!! With no doubt it is way more addicting and fun than many other games. Thank u guys ### 5/5 — So Good *2015-09-14, version 1.1* Perfect game ### 5/5 — Good *2015-09-13, version 1.1* Good ### 5/5 — Great game *2015-09-13, version 1.1* I love the game ### 5/5 — Great game *2015-09-12, version 1.1* Addicting --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
