Too many long ads

The game itself is fun…even the super challenging levels that take you multiple tries. The problem is with the ads. Several are 90 second ads and there are more that are multipart ads where the first part is 30-60 seconds, then you close it out Nd a second part opens up and plays for another 15-30 seconds, and then another time you have to x out. It’s just way too many clicks and too much time. Ads should max out at 30 seconds. Any longer than that is a waste and an annoyance that ensured I will never buy or download what is being advertised. Additionally there are a few ads that glitch out and freeze, so you’ve agreed to watch an ad to earn extra time or a game assist and after watching the ad you can’t close the ad without closing the app, which, you guessed it, means starting the level over. No bueno. Anyway, today I got on to play and the puzzle level comes up with a blank background and the timer running. No bolts, no boards…nothing to do. Timer runs out and I try again…same thing. This might be it for me. Fun concept but too many long ads and glitches, and I refuse to do in app purchases. Oh well.

If you love watching ads, this game is for you

I would love this game so much more without the time factor. I don’t really care they have an easy level and then a hard one and then just rinse and repeat. I love sitting forever to figure it out. But forcing me to watch a single ad that’s 80 seconds long with no exiting it just to undo a single move… yeah, that’s annoying. Another undo, 30 second ad. That’s fine. And then another 80 seconds. Need another undo? 30 seconds. I think I’m on the fourth or fifth hard level and even now, they basically want you to spend money and they don’t hide it. And all of this is for a single hard level that’s maybe 3:30 minutes long. Why am I spending more time watching ads than I am playing the game? If this is all at level 5, why would I even bother continuing to play? If this was like level 60, I could hear you out on that. This is level 5. If you took away the timed part of levels, I’d be a lot less annoyed. That or installing a “zen mode” where you just play over and over and over while not trying to beat a clock or get a better score. I’m not keeping this because it’s incredibly depressing that even ads on streaming platforms are shorter than the ones in a single game where you undo a move three or four times. When you undo a single move, you don’t get that time back. Wanna restart the level? 50/50 chance you get an 80 second ad.

Crashes out

I do genuinely enjoy this game it’s not extremely easy like other puzzle games and not even puzzle games like this just other games in general but I do like that it’s hard maybe a little too hard but fun, probably can be harder as you play but still fun. What I don’t like is I was just playing a level and I watched a 80 second ad to get a open hole and played more messed up tried to use a booster was watching the ad and the screen just went black. It went completely blank and that was the 2nd or 3rd time that’s happened I didn’t mind the other times cause I wasn’t knee deep in a game but this is infuriating. I have to watch these extremely long ads that aren’t even 30 seconds maximum and went in to watch another ad for the game to completely crash out causing my game to be completely lost. I had to close out the app come back in and I have to restart and this level is very hard. Very fun game but it can’t crash like this randomly when I’m trying to play then on top of that lose my progress. What if I was at the very end watched ads and everything then it completely bugs out like this? Would be extremely mad fix this, and maybe pace the hard levels a bit really fun but disappointed.

On the fence - like the game, DESPISE the timer

I got hooked playing the advertisement for this game, but didn’t download it right away. I was hesitant because of the reviews. After several weeks I decided I’d give it a go for myself and downloaded the game. I deleted it once and thought I was too hasty and brought it back out of the cloud. I really like the concept and you have to think about the moves. What I don’t like is that you can get a good feel for playing the real game before you’re faced with big, difficult puzzles by level 4! I can see gradually adding 10-20 pieces but to go from 5-6 to 20-30 plus having a timer that doesn’t give you enough time to scratch adds frustration. Remove the timer and I’d be really happy. You can still run out of moves and have to start over, but why time a puzzle???? Puzzles are supposed to be time consuming and methodical, not rushed and timed and required multiple times with ultra lengthy ads in between….. PLEASE REMOVE THE TIMER and let us enjoy solving the puzzles and running out of moves on our own. Oh and it’s rediculous that it costs to undo a move and that you can’t restart to puzzle when you make an error

Do not get! What a rip off! I did receive a reply! I am surprised. Thank you.

You explained the differences between forced adds and reward adds. I did and do know the difference between the two types of adds. You did not respond to my complaint about having to watch the pop up adds despite the fact I purchased the “No Forced Adds” option. I would have appreciated it if you had addressed my purchase of the “No Forced Adds” and yet being forced to watch these short adds. Still looking for a refund for this. I will upgrade from 1 star to 2 stars because you did reply. Next time please address the issue and not something I did not ask for clarification on. Below is my original complaint: Not only did I not find a way to get customer support you will be ripped off! I purchased the “ no forced adds” option. I had to watch the forced adds any way! Then when I tried to get a refund because of this I was told “Does not qualify for a refund”! So not only does your app say one thing and do another it also rips you off because of your automated reply “Does not qualify for refund”! Wow! You need serious help in customer support or should I say lack of customer support. Very dissatisfied.

Too many ads not enough rewards

Ok I don’t mind watching an ad or two but this is an insane amount. You only get rewards after like 15 levels and what you get is a ridiculously low reward for the amount of time and the endless ads you must watch. I might even be willing to pay to get rid of the ads IF the rewards you received were commensurate with the effort it took to obtain them but it’s not. After 15 or 20 levels you get 1 or 2 of one of the boosters almost always an undo and if you watch an ad (of course) you can double it so 20 levels and you get 2 undos? And the ads are 1 1/2-2 minutes long and you can’t even mute them. And usually they are for the exact same scammer games touting you can make hundreds of dollars for playing (dubbed game name). It’s beyond annoying. DEVELOPERS: if you want a successful game cut down on the length and repetition of ads give better rewards so it’s worth the effort of playing and it’s actually possible people might be willing to pay to ditch the ads but nobody wants to pay to get rid of ads and then have to watch endless ads anyway just to get through a tough level!

You ruined the game for me

I’ve played this game for countless hours—accruing a ton of coins, and watching a gazillion ads. Fine. Game was fun and I had so many coins I could usually use them to get an extra hole. Suddenly, the coins are gone, replaced by screws that don’t seem to do anything. You now have to use tickets to purchase an extra hole. However, there’s no way to get tickets except by actually purchasing them. I play games like this to keep my brain active as I age. I don’t know if people who are still working are all right with spending their hard earned cash to purchase things on a game (given the economy where even people working more than one job each can’t afford both groceries and mortgages and gasoline), but people who’ve retired and are on a fixed income darn sure can’t . Plus we’re usually too frugal to use our money that way even if we could afford to. We didn’t get the money we have by wasteful spending. I am just not that enchanted with rainbow screws and pink and lilac backgrounds as I am in using strategy and logic without being ripped off. I literally have had up to 80K coins. I think at the time they disappeared, I had 49K—it varied between that and 60K +. All gone, for useless screws….

The Most Infuriating Game, Don’t Even Download This

First off, each levels has a timer. That’s fine and all but the time is so short that you’re furiously clicking on all the screws to try and get rid of all the woods as that makes your critical thinking skills go into overdrive. So, you’re stuck racing against a clock that the fun get flush down the drain causing stress. Not only that, but there are certain blocks that you have to wait on because they’re slowly rolling off the screws and you can’t make it move any faster because the only open slots are the ones being blocked by the same block you’re trying to move. Secondly, if you mess up, you can’t fix it because the undo and all the other things that’s supposed to help players cost real money. I didn’t get a single power-up thing to help me through any of the levels. The third thing is if you did mess up on the hard levels which is a lot of times, you have to repeat the easy level just to do the hard level. And lastly, as many of the other raters on this game, too many ads. I know you want to make money off of this game but you got to make it fun and worth it to play.
