the ads are insufferable - as in, I understand free games have ads but they take forever to find the exit button. plus the game freezes every 2-3 levels and i have to exit out and restart. I wish it was a more enjoyable experience bc it's a cute concept and I really enjoy the aesthetics and sounds, but the bugs and ads are too aggravating for me. also the dev reply sounds condescending?? I gave more details this time to hopefully have better understanding.

Out of all the remake-like game by Taito; Bust-A-Move and/or Puzzle Bobble this one is the greatest that I've played so far. (And I am still only at level 14!) The only reason I had given four stars rather than five is because of the pop up ads that stay in the way of the game that is on-going and not paused. And because the ad seems to stay in the way for about 30 seconds even after answering the "why's". Cannot wait for the bug-fix!

2nd review. This is a great game. I think it's important to point out that the game is supported by ads. These very short ads can be intrusive, but they are short ads. There are products to use on your device to help with that. It's also worth mentioning that this is a large game, and the ads also leave a footprint on your device. If you are having lagging problems or the app is crashing, use the clear cache, force stop, method, in app settings. These small tweaks are worth your time.

It's a very good game to start out with. It actually helps me relax. But the designers' irritating need to keep making it harder by coming up with new special challenges leads me to the point where I just want to give up. Once the spiders and the leaf- creating bugs start showing up it becomes more stressful than fun. I've taken to deleting the whole thing and starting over from scratch. But I'll have limited tolerance for that and will eventually just move on.

Don't get me wrong, this is a fun game... Until it locks up and freezes, especially when I have one move left to make three stars. The only way to unfreeze the game is to stop it and kill the app, lose my progress, and lo se all of my saved power-ups. There's got to be another game like this one that doesn't freeze up. I would pay to remove ads, but why do that if the game is unplayable.

Used to love this challenging game. But just recently, it has stopped working the same, won't register coins after I watch ads, won't provide extra bombs, rockets, rainbows, lightening like it used to. This makes winning almost impossible. Challenging is good, impossible is not. Also, won't allow watching ads for extra bombs, etc because it CLOSES the game. Lastly, responses to reviews don't mean anything...looks like they are simply automated. Edit: bugs appear to have been fixed. Thx!

I love this game, and the fact that the lives are literally unlimited. All. The. Time. But it's glitchy, and right now there's an event where I am progressing through the ranks, but I can't claim ANY of the rewards I'm earning. It's been this way since I went from bronze level rewards to silver. Maybe a bit before that. But I'll change my review to 5 stars if that gets fixed. ;)

The game itself is fine - each level is passable, but some do present an intriguing challenge. However, even without ever choosing to watch ads to get extras, the amount of obligatory ad time between levels (or between next attempts at levels not yet passed) became egregious. It seemed like the game ultimately was an attempt to keep me watching ads, rather than actually playing. I appreciate that free games need to find other ways to pay, but this seemed excessive. Ultimately uninstalled.

I've reached out for help, several times. To no avail... Great game. So many times, you miss out on the daily free coins because the video is unavailable/you're unable to play the video. That alone has dropped my 5 stars down to 2 stars. Getting any help from the developer(s) or anyone else is out of the question. That makes it worse. Having excellent customer service is a must. Which they're lacking here.

This is the first game I've found that makes it unplayable if you turn on airplane mode to skip ads. After the level, the screen will dim and it will try to load the ad and make it impossible to tap anywhere in game. It also has an ad after every single level once you play 10 levels or so. If you are quick, you can skip the ad after 5 seconds. If you are not quick, the skip button disappears and you are forced to watch the whole 30 second ad....every... single... level...

I love this game! I've been playing it for several years. If you can save up the boosters you earn in the beginning levels, it makes playing the harder levels much easier! Also, don't be afraid to not be able to beat a level. If you just watch an ad (or do something else while the ad is playing), they will give you a free random booster to use to replay the level! Each time you replay that level, you might get a different booster. Eventually, you will win that level!! Good luck, and have fun!🥰

Way too many ads.. playing this game has become VERY disturbing with the long ads. And as of late, the game started cheating me out of points so i cannot obtain weapons after you pass a level.. it has become very clear that this game has become ad oriented, in that they have now made it nearly impossible to pass a level without having to play 3 different 30 second ads. And, should you pass a level without the need for extra bubbles, it will not let you go to the next level without an ad..

It's a fun game but if you start to win too much it just starts to cheat. Sometimes the bubble doesn't go where the game said it was going to go. Sometimes it will go 5 or more turns without giving you a color you can use. Sometimes the game just hangs when you're getting close to winning. Update: This game gets worse with each release. It's now crashing every time I go to watch an ad in order get a reward. The app crashes and so I don't get the reward I've earned.

It takes 10 minutes after beating a level to start the next. First you have to wait for the fireworks. Then there's an ad. Then there's a pop up for the daily event, then a pop up for unlocks, then a pop up for the monthly event, then a pop up for treasure, plus 2 or 3 others. All with animations that take forever. The game play is great, if you can ever actually play the game. Altogether, the developer is trash for bloating their game to the point that you can't actually play it

It is fun, challenging yet chill, the further you get, the harder it is. However there are a LOT of problems. I have to shut my phone off and then back on EVERY morning so I can watch the 5 adds to get my coins,no biggie. In between levels and during the level I am playing it will glitch and ask me if I want to quit or resume. While playing it also freeze's and don't want to shoot the ball causing you to have to tap on the screen a few times to shoot. And the ball changes color is mid shot.

I like the unlimited play. But it seems every time there's an update it works more poorly. Currently, I can't play the weekend hidden chamber-- freezes, and I need to close and restart. Freezes during regular game play also, usually when replaying a level. As another person said, takes forever to exit an ad, or again freezes. Sensing a theme here???

It displays all the time to purchase more coins or more Bomb things, once you've made a purchase it changes the game. Playing for many months, I reached level 3347, just made a purchase and it changed the game to where I can't beat the level and now the game is frustrating to where I need to uninstall. Worthless after purchasing. Great game, never purchase anything, not as exciting to play. It won't allow you to win the next level. REPETITIVE ADDS!Uninstalling it.

This game is ad heavy but when you watch videos for extra bubbles or weapons, you seldom get your "reward" and you've wasted all that time watching videos. I have this app open on 3 different devices. I only install it on this phone a little while ago and realized I was getting more rewards than on the games on the other devices. But now that isn't happening either so it's getting tedious. Don't have money to spend on imaginary things. I do watch the videos but I'm not going to do that anymore.

Downloaded this before. It's great and graphics are super! The only negative is IT'S VERY ADDICTIVE!! So if you need to empty your brain to relax and put worries in a box with a lock, play this game!!! Still playing this bubble game and loving it. It's addictive, it allows you to pick up the speed of play, and I see new features I've not seen before, even in other bubble games.

I've been play this game for awhile and I love it. However, I recently noticed the option to watch a video for 3 extra balls is no longer available...or at least not for me. Also, the booster are far and few between, the coins have dropped to 10, so, if I want to finish a level I have to buy coins and boosters. I enjoy the game so I've made several purchases. I'm on level 1740 something. I don't mind buying once in awhile but I won't keep doing it. I still give 5 stars.
