Ads, ads, ads, there's no way to skip them and they override any background audio you have on. It's not just an occasional ad, it's several before and after every level. You spend 2-3x more time watching ads than game play. It's a shame, there's potential for a fun game but I uninstalled after one day because the ads are just too annoying.

This is, by far, the best "Breakout" style game I've ever played...BUT they pretty much force you to pay. How? As you get to more difficult levels they actually REDUCE how many balls you have! I'm very experienced at this type of game and am now completely stuck away lvl 68 due to this very problem. Uninstalling (reluctantly! I had a lot of fun with this!) It's nice they let you keep trying wo having to start over at lvl 1 but... can't move past this lvl with 45 balls.

Too many LONG ads. I understand the needs for ads. There were no ads for about the first 10 levels, then there what seemed like 5 second ads after every few levels...ok, that's fine. But then there were long unskippable ads about every other level. 30 second ads and 30 seconds of play?? No way! It's like the developers mindset was "Pay $2.99 or don't play at all" I opted for the latter and uninstalled this annoying method of "forced" payment.

It's a fun game up to a point. It seems as though their strategy is to hook you through easy levels that get progressively more difficult until it's impossible to pass unless you pay them. They even have a $7.99 monthly Diamond membership where you can get "true aim." In other words, have the balls go where you actually aimed them to go Go ahead and enjoy the lower levels but don't fall into their trap of paying them to continue

Does not calculate angles correctly. I angle the shot, to only miss the mark, and then correct to only get met with the same results. Game needs to fix the 'hit box' angle of the ball. Very annoying aiming away from a side I don't want to hit to only hit it still despite having plenty of clearance space to not hit the side I didn't aim at.

It's a fine game. The constant ads made me opt for the ad free version but it's still a money pit (that I will not indulge). Many of the higher levels require a lot of patience, luck, or paying for gems in order to get power ups to get past them successfully. That's somewhat annoying but I am happy to play the same level over and over again because I usually play as a wind down or casual activity while I'm waiting for something.

Golden aim no longer precise after last update. This was done intentionally to scam us out of our money. I uninstalled. - There's also the issue of when a good round is going, and you've already spent money on upgrades mid-round, then you pause the game, come back an hour later, and that current level resets. You just wasted $5 on a hard level, all because the level won't resume itself. This is class action lawsuit level stuff here.

Confusing operability and seemingly random nonsense plus too many ads. When clicking on the screen to fire the balls in the desired location, the game randomly pauses itself at times firing and sometimes not. None of it makes any sense and I haven't seen this from any other game. Between each level your bombarded with an ad. Need to restart a level? You get an ad. I understand they need to make money, but it's excessive. Still need further improvements to be worth it.

Many of the ads are broken. They won't let you out of them, no matter how long you wait. The exit option never comes up. So you have to close the app and reopen. Very annoying. Would rate higher if that wasn't an issue. Good time killer and good for when you just want to zone out. Fix ads issue. EDIT- Dropped down to 1 star. Lost my progress on a bonus level and lost another reward due to ads freezing.

way too many ads, the worst kind too. the ones that have a time limit, then you skip but it just goes to the next part of the ad, then you have to wait to skip again... then it goes to the THIRD part of the ad, and who'd have guessed you have to wait to skip it again. they ease you into the ads at first but eventually you just get more and more. Not sure why the game even has a high rating considering there's nothing special or different than any other brick breaking game and the onslaught of ad

I regret paying for "ad free". The game has constant popups for in game purchases from the moment you open the game that are frustrating and annoying. Every time you go to the home screen? Full screen in game purchases popup. Restart a level more than a handful of times? Popup to use in game currency to skip the level every time you fail the level. The game itself is fine. The physics could be refined but besides that it's a good way to kill a few minutes.

Crashed twice in the first 19 levels. Have to click on start game to get an ad, click on start again, then click on start again to play the game. The aimer doesn't aim at the black you are aiming at the ball goes to the boundary of the board. But what I liked most about the game is ads that take 3 clicks to return to the game or sends you to Google play. I think they need more development on this game before it is playable. Maybe they can research brickout, they did it right...

This game is undeniably entertaining, with engaging gameplay and a delightful aesthetic. However, the excessive ads significantly disrupt the flow of the game, making it frustrating at times. If you can tolerate frequent ad interruptions, this app is worth checking out. Otherwise, you might want to look for an alternative with a less aggressive monetization strategy. Lots of ads, are valid so get it or go with another app. Some ads will freeze the game with a blank screen. You'd have to FC the g

Anybody looking to download this game should know that the main focus of this app is to generate ad revenue and almost nothing more. Levels recycle quickly (on level 166 and am seeing the same levels) and the ads are quite overbearing, often times you'll get 30 second ads instead of 5 second-skippable ads. You can of course donate 10 dollars for no ads. Game is fun, shame it has to be a method of revenue and nothing more. Close the app before moving to next level to not allow the CO to get money

Physics are terrible. If on a slanted block, unless you hit it just right, it just sends the balls downward or upward opposite if the slant. The ad and monetization structure is also so stupid. They're double dipping with their piggy Bank by forcing you to fill it but not allowing you to collect from it unless you cough up $5. Like wth? I watched way more than that in ads and I still don't get access to the same amount as if I just went and paid anyways. Oh, you want to restart? Ad.

There is an advertisement in this game that pops up literally while you play, it's an Amazon advertisement and is enough to make you want to throw the device right into the middle of the street. The game has lots of advertising and that Amazon one is ridiculously irritating. Instead of fixing the issue though I guess the developers think that anger is a good motivator to purchase the app. The app itself is unstable though and frequently becomes unresponsive and closes on you. I am uninstalling.

Incredibly glitchy. I've had the game randomly take away all of my progress at least 4 times. I would say that if I had remotely considered making PURCHASES, there is a absolutely NO WAY I would risk it at this point. Normally I give the benefit of the doubt, but after 4 times in as many days of losing progress, it's hard to be understanding ETA response to developer re: support. I did contact via the app. Twice. I never received a response

1st time I've played and was immediately confronted with a window to pay 9.99 for 'no ads'. At this point, I had opted to delete the game, but could find no way to x out. I cleared it from my screen, hoping to find it gone when I reopened the game. The window was still there so, based on my experiences with other games, I expected to be offered a 2nd window to confirm the purchase after hitting the blue button. Please refund.

Good puzzle gameplay. It's fun. Levels are challenging and often take multiple attempts (if you don't buy lots of power ups). The ruby currency doesn't make any sense. It says my piggy bank is full (holding 850), and they keep wanting me to pay $$ to upgrade the bank storage. Since it's full, I don't get to keep the rewards when I beat a level. But when I'm in the Shop, it says I only have 50-100 to spend. There's no way to actually use the 850, so it's always going to be full.

There are too many ads. Ads on the top when you're playing. The ads every other level is not so bad I know you have to you get paid. The major reason is that some locked up, and I have to close it and restart it. Some make you click 3 or 4 times with waiting in between, but the bigger issue is that some have X's the same color as thethe background Xs. But the bigger issue is some have X's SO SMALL CAN NOT CLICK THEM. You may not have control over that.However , it is so irritating that I exit it
