Not worth anyones time unless you're on a bus or something and have no internet and just bored. Too many ads to the point I would get mad, and the levels are too easy and couldnt even be called "brain-teasers". The game in its overall textures is just like metal and wood and stuff and gets the attention of little children who dont know much. Basic textures as always with these games, easy levels, too many ads, it's not even that good of a game overall I'm gonna have to be honest. Wasnt worth it.

So many ads! I think this is a fun puzzle game but what angers me is there is a 30 second ad between each puzzle or every time you make a change to the page you are on even when navigating the game menu. Even worse, you can turn sound off in the game but not the ads, you have to manually silence each one or turn the volume off on your phone. That's really poor design.

Great game; it's my favorite distraction app. Unfortunately, there's no progress sync, so if you get a new device you lose hundreds of completed levels. I'll likely look for an alternative that does save progress across devices because I don't want to replay levels I've already completed every few years when I upgrade my device

Game can be played on or offline, which makes it a great camping game. Some levels are easy, but some are definitely challenging, as in most puzzle games. For under a one-time payment of $2, you can avoid watching ads between levels. Other than that expense, no in-app purchases were needed. Hints are free for winning some levels or you can watch an optional video.

Game is fun but the ads are waaaaay too long compared to how much time I spend on each level, especially since I'm still in the early levels. I spend less than a minute on the level, then have to watch a 30 second ad to get to the next. Even trying to quit the game prompts an ad! Very annoying and makes me no longer want to play.

Absolutely a fun game. However, too many ads. If you're one to play games in small burst of times through the day (/or you're flipping back and forth between apps) you have a 75% of getting an ad after returning, even if you just got one before leaving. After you beat every other level you get an ad (many have to be muted everytime they appear), wouldn't be as bad however as with any puzzle games they have some levels easier than others so if you're having a winning streak be prepared for ads.

To many adds. I understand the needs for adds on the free version, but when it takes you three times(3x) longer to finish an ad than it does a puzzle and you are required to finish the ad before proceding to the next level, it gets frusterating and unapealing to play for more than one(1) level at a time. The game levels were fun and make you think. I enjoyed the game. Just to many ads. For future versions perhaps you can shorten the ads or let you go a couple levels before having long ads?

This game would be great if it were not for all the ads. Even when I select' next', and I do not select 'video' for an extra hint, it plays an ad video anyway. Every single ad is for another game. If I put all those games on my phone and played them all, I would be playing games 24/7. Overwhelming folks with too many ads just makes them not want to get anything. It's not possible to enjoy this game, when in between 8 out of 10 screens you have to watch another ad, whether you want to or not. Takes away the otherwise relaxing effect this game would have, and makes it stressful. I'm uninstalling it.

It's not really fun but it is addictive. The levels take a long time to start getting anywhere near challenging which isn't a good sign. Also, very concerning is the percentage of how many got past the level increases over time. It doesn't seem like a legitimate number and if it is, than the math being used is not sufficient. There are an above average amount of ads but they don't seem excessive like some describe. All in all, not really worth it or rewarding but not worth uninstalling either.

It is very simple. Get the ball where it needs to go; however, using star 'pipes' over regular pipe tiles make it more challenging. I just started and i'm already halfway through the game. Some tiles are unmoveable and make you really think about what you should move. I love it, but I wish the grid was bigger and more challenging. I'll have to delete it once i'm finished :( Edit: I SPOKE TOO SOON. There's tons more levels. When I started the game I didn't even see the menu since it just throws you right into it. 😍 Yesss!

A simple and elegant idea, but it needs a little more done with it. There are no new mechanics introduced at least up to the third section of levels, and the difficulty scales incredibly slowly - even at that point, only one in about ten levels posed enough challenge to be even mildly interesting. Oh, and you can't skip levels to get to the harder ones, and there are a lot per section. I got bored before reaching any interesting levels - assuming there are any.

Like the game, too many ads. Started out fine then after only a few levels in I was hit with an ad for other games after only completing 2 game boards, sometimes even after finishing 1 game board. I got frustrated because each ad turns off Pandora, or shuts it down completely, and doesn't turn it back on when returning to the game. I had the game sound off. Ads should then also have no sound.

This is a very unique puzzle game. It's a block slide puzzle with an interesting twist. If you're a puzzler, this game is a must have. UPDATE: I love this game, but I'm downgrading my review to 1 star. The ads have become intrusive. Even though I turn my phone's audio all the way down, the ads override it. They're styled so that you cannot close them, and 80% of the time I get a damn ad after each game.

Took off 4 stars. Haven't played in awhile and now I can't level up without the ads forcing me to the play store 3 or 4 times after the install page 3 or 4 times. Click the x and it just takes you to the ads install page and I have to count down more time before trying to close it again. Very irritating and I am uninstalling right now

Ads play after every few levels. Combine that with the fact that levels remain fairly easy/quick to complete, even after making it decently far into the game, and you end spending about as much time viewing ads as you do playing the game. Plus there are issues with the game freezing when loading an ad, requiring you to restart the app.

Onslaught of ads. One puzzle, ad, one puzzle, ad, etc. I'm install games for sometimes less than a day because of excessive ads. I understand developers have to make money, I do. But it takes something enjoyable and makes it frustrating. Developers should just remove their free versions period. Play a short example of the game to show what a customer is getting and just charge for the download. No more selling us dreams. lol. Peace

This game is still as fun as the first time I played but I'm taking back a star (maybe 2 haven't decided yet) because of ADS AFTER EVERY PUZZLE! !!! Want a hint, watch an ad, understandable, same as most games. Don't want the hint? Hit next, watch an ad. Doesn't give you the option for a hint? Hit next, watch an ad. Some puzzles take 20 sec to do and ad takes 45. Extremely frustrating. Game came up in a search for "time waster game", go figure. 300 puzzles/300 ads so far. Might just uninstall.
