### 1/5 — Cactus isn’t a biome…(don’t download the game the devs don’t know what they’re talking about)

*2026-02-17*

Are you okay developers?  Grass isn’t a biome either. Neither is “Maple” 
Level 5 guys. 
The category is “biome”.

### 1/5 — Too simple

*2026-02-16*

The hover makes cheating very very tempting. And the ads are absolutely ridiculous.this is a game made for toddlers

### 2/5 — Bien mais dommage

*2026-04-29*

Le jeu est bien et propre mais le probleme vient de la traduction en francais qui est totalement bugguée. Deja quand on change la langue dans les paramètres et que l’on retourne dans le menu j’ai choisi ma langue francaise et mon menu etait en espagnol bon soit mais PENDANT le jeu j’ai la carte « boisson 0/3 » et je vois il y a AUCUNE cartes boissons dans le tas et dans les carte cachée et du coup il fallait mettre 2 bibliothèques et une guitare mdr ah bah sympa pour deviner mdr bref tres bien mais trop buggué . Il y a des gens dont c’est le metiers de tester ca enfaite (genre moi lol c’est mon metier xD) et ca sert pas a rien. Dommage je reviendrais voir plus tard si c’est corrigé mais pour l’instant je desinstalle et ne perdez pas votre temps (pour l’instant en tout cas!)

### 2/5 — Not worth it

*2026-01-04*

Bought the ad free version, but now I can’t get past level 30 unless I watch endless ads for rounds of 10 more moves because it is rigged

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for sharing your concern. We’re sorry to hear about your frustration and would like to clarify this point clearly:

All the levels in the game is 100% SOLVABLE WITHOUT WATCHING REWARDS ADS AND WITHOUT PURCHASING EXTRA MOVES. This applies to all levels, including higher and more challenging ones. The game  does not block progress behind ads.

As you progress, levels may require a more thoughtful approach. Success depends much more on smart strategy. This includes planning moves carefully, prioritizing theme cards, and using boosters strategically. Optional ads for extra moves are offered only as a convenience, never as a requirement.

If a level feels impossible, it usually means a different approach or strategy is needed. That challenge is intentional and designed to make the gameplay more engaging.

If you feel a specific level is behaving incorrectly or may contain a bug, please contact us at huyenanh.tgmedia@gmail.com with your device information and level number. We’ll be happy to investigate and assist.

We appreciate your support and hope this explanation helps restore your confidence in the game.
Happy gaming!

### 3/5 — It Was Fun Until…

*2026-02-06*

I played a 3 levels. An ad cut in mid play of the third level.

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2026-04-21*

Started playing as other solitaire association game has been ruined with latest update, and love it so far. Fun, free and easy enough not to hate it

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-01-07*

I like this game a lot, but I won’t pretend it’s perfect. Some levels are really hard and take long time to get thru. I’ve been spent a few hours just to beat a level!! 😭. I have to play the hard levels many time to figure out the right way to place & merge the cards. However I can beat some really hard level without watching ads. I like that the game doesn’t force me to spend money just to move on!
One good thing is that this game has smooth animation, cute pictures and relaxed background music!
Not always relaxing but still feel satisfied when finally clear a tough level!
