### 3/5 — Game stop 861

*2026-04-12, version 1.186*

Game has stopped at 861.  It doesn't show anything after that.

### 2/5 — Update

*2025-06-14, version 1.184*

Awful

### 3/5 — Too many ads

*2025-05-02, version 1.184*

Game is mostly fun and the graphics are great, but this is exactly like a few other Zumba games - with MANY more ads. I deleted the game after just 10 levels because I couldn't take seeing one more ad.

### 2/5 — Paid for no ads and still get banners

*2024-11-14, version 1.182*

Title. I feel like this is a scam. No ads means no ads. They cover part of the gameplay and it’s so annoying

### 2/5 — Ads

*2024-07-08, version 1.181*

Are

### 4/5 — Love it, but……..

*2024-05-18, version 1.180*

I really enjoy this game. It becomes addictive until I get to level 9 and there is a card. (Or whatever you call it.)How do I play this level?  
Going through withdrawal!!

Thanks!

### 4/5 — Level 513

*2024-01-28, version 1.174*

Impossible to get 3 stars on level 513

### 4/5 — Bien

*2024-01-20, version 1.174*

Bien mais trop de pub

### 4/5 — Nicely designed. Fun to play. Still some bugs and annoyances

*2023-12-27, version 1.173*

Review Update 12/26/2023:
Since my last review, there have been mostly visual updates, which look nice, but the most recent update included a number of loooong overdue (over a year) bug fixes. It’s nice to not have to deal with them anymore. Of course there’s still a few bugs remaining and some new ones now. I can tell the speed has been increased in this last update as well, which is really making me mad because many levels are no longer possible without watching ads to continue playing or using powerups. Sometimes even both are necessary. It would be somewhat more bearable if I could shoot when matches are completed and going in reverse.  I’m increasing my rating from 3 stars to 4 stars.

Previous review:
Nice visual effects. Works mostly well. There are a number of bugs. - After losing a life, then continuing, sometimes all of the balls roll all the way back and you can’t shoot. You have to restart. - On the boss levels, moving does not work well when you are on the ends and try to move to the middle, sometimes it shoots instead of moving. Or sometimes when you are in the middle and you move to the end, it still wants to continue shooting upwards. - Boss level 110 seems to be impossible or nearly impossible. Best I’ve been able to do is get the boss down to 1.5/5 hearts. The balls move too fast. It’s too bad, because if it wasn’t for these issues, I’d give it 5 stars. I see the developer hasn’t provided an update in 9 months so I don’t expect there to be any fixes anytime soon, if ever, so I’ll likely be deleting it soon.

### 3/5 — 237 level issue

*2023-12-08, version 1*

There is a bug in 237 level. Only few balls come out and the game stops. Can you please fix?

### 3/5 — Love game

*2023-12-07, version 1*

Love game but too many advertisements

### 4/5 — Ads do not work anymore please fix! 🙏😃

*2023-11-21, version 1*

Ads do not work anymore please fix! 🙏😃

### 4/5 — Glitch

*2023-11-11, version 1.170*

I’m on level 237 and the game is glitching out. The balls just stop moving. Other than that I was enjoying the game

### 2/5 — Jeu planté niveau 265 rien ne se passe

*2023-11-05*

Jeu planté au niveau 265, le niveau s’ouvre mais aucunes boules ne sort ou seulement 2/3 puis plus rien

### 3/5 — Advertising during the game, interrupts everything🙈

*2023-10-31, version 1.170*

Advertising during the game, interrupts everything🙈

### 3/5 — Love the game BUT

*2023-10-30, version 1.170*

I absolutely LOVE this game. BUT since the last update, I cannot get past level 299. The marbles come out but just stop. Once the marbles are cleared, nothing happens. I cannot get past the level. If it’s not fixed soon, there’s no point in having the game so I’ll be deleting… I’ve emailed the developer a day ago and haven’t heard back

### 2/5 — Adds in the playing field

*2023-10-11, version 1.161*

There are way too many adds in the playing field.  It looks like you could find some other we to do your adds.  Since they are right in the playing field, you click adds even when you are trying to launch the marbles.  It is very frustrating!  I wish I could add a screen shot to show you just how ridiculous it is.

### 4/5 — Smoother than me

*2023-10-03, version 1.161*

This classic is running very pretty, and if I can slow down just right, I’ll be ‘here’ for a long time :D

### 1/5 — Enjoying up to level 148 but now it stopped

*2026-02-13, version 1.186*

I have gotten to 
level 148 and it will not load.  I checked for an update but there isn’t one

### 1/5 — Great game

*2026-01-23, version 1.186*

This game is very addictive, however… i’m really disturbed at the occasional few levels where a person‘s standing behind something that’s going to kill them if the balls get to a certain area. I happen to be a very strong empath.  This is very disturbing to me. Used to be a great game, and never had these horrible situations.

### 1/5 — No instructions

*2025-05-04, version 1.184*

No instructions for first time user. To many ads

### 1/5 — WAY TOO MANY ADS

*2025-03-07, version 1.184*

The amount of ads in this is obscene, you can’t see the marbles you need to shoot because there’s ads displayed while you play, not only in between the levels. Ridiculous 🤦‍♀️

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2024-08-18, version 1.181*

Way too many ads in the free version. Multiple ads show up every second level.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2024-07-11, version 1.181*

I had to delete because of the ad that’s in the middle of gameplay! Every few seconds an ad will pop up while you’re playing and if you need to shoot in that direction, you accidentally click the ad and it sends you to another window. I understand ads, but that is ridiculous.

### 1/5 — Hidden ads at the bottom and top ones block the game

*2024-04-01, version 1.176*

There are now hidden ads at the bottom that open a web page and the top ads are in the way of the game. This used to be fun even with ads but now the game is unplayable!

### 1/5 — Love Zuma but the political adds

*2023-07-06, version 1.161*

I really like this game but tha political add were just to much if it would of been Trump and not Obama I may of kept it lol jk on that no politics for my relax time sorry

### 1/5 — Okay while it lasted

*2023-04-27, version 1.160*

Ok game, too many glitches, won’t let me past level 90 even though I’ve beaten the level several times, no in app support, ads don’t work for rewards, oh you get to watch the ad but you don’t get the reward

### 1/5 — Pay to play

*2023-04-20, version 1.160*

First level beat me the first time I played it and asked if I wanted to watch an ad or buy an extra life. I tried several more times with the same result and then deleted the game

The best game in the world

### 5/5 — Ad placement disrupts game play

*2024-05-02, version 1.179*

A banner ad is displayed in the top center area of the screen which limits what you can see. Frustrating

### 5/5 — Theresa

### 5/5 — Entretenimiento

*2023-01-14, version 1.068*

Me gusta el juego

### 5/5 — Problem

*2023-01-10, version 1.068*

*ETA Thank you so much for replying to my problem and rectifying the issue. It’s working again. Good times… great game!!😄👏🏻

I have very much enjoyed this game up until level 277. It has some kind of glitch where it won’t ever allow me to win so I can move on. I have wasted sooooo many of my power ups trying different things to get it to finish but it never does. I literally sit there with all balls/marbles completely gone but it won’t register as a win so that I can move on to level 278.

### 5/5 — Game

*2022-07-22, version 1.055*

Great game super entertaining
