Wonderful game. My favotite, and I have been playing for years. In response to some recent reviews, I do not get pop ups, ads or impossible puzzles. I receive all rewards, and it also is not a money sink - it only requires patience and tenacity. Truly one of the best, hassle free, interuption free games, and one of the few to remain true to itself after all this time.

I've really enjoyed this game, but the ads have become extremely intrusive, with long videos you can't stop, skip or mute. I get that free games are going to have ads, but when they go from pictures you can cancel out of to videos that take your phone hostage, that's unacceptable. If this keeps happening I'll be deleting the app. Edited to add that the intrusive video ads haven't stopped, so I'm deleting this app. Very sad, since it was a fun game.

Ok Devs, You guys REALLY need to make it clear that ANY in app purchase, gets rid of the new, super annoying ads. Ive been playing for over two years, and just all of my progress with the latest update. But since i like it so much, I started again. However, because of the ADs I was about to delete, when is saw a reply that pointed out this key tidbit of information. Back to 5 stars....golly!!

Very fun and cute. Purrfect for the cat lover🐈 UPDATING REVIEW. Originally gave 5 stars. Love this game. Great graphics. Very addicting. However the game is freezing up. I'm getting tired of having to restart my phone every 4-5 levels and that's what's it's come to. I've been playing this for about 3 years now and would be sad to delete it due to a stupid bug. PLEASE FIX IT. Thanks

Edited: The game is still excellent and I purchased the no-ads option, which is great...but recently they've started doing these in-game offers to get x amount of whatever powerups for whatever discount, and they pop up After. Every. Level...! It is terribly irritating to have to close out an in game ad every time I advance. Please make the promos less intrusive.

Played the game through 60+ levels and never saw the great features and mini-games from the ad. Okay, to play if bubble popping is what you want to do, but was also hoping to enjoy some of the other small games. EDIT: I did get to play a few 'find the difference' games along the way, but they were basic and easy - nothing like the mini-games in the ad. Will upgrade the stars from 2 to 3 as a nod to the graphics in the game and the dev team taking the time to reach out.

2019: Great game, all of the bugs from past versions have been addressed. So fun and addicting! 2024 Update: An ad after each game is unreasonable. I've spent many dollars over the years on coins but didn't have to watch an ad unless I chose to, now you are forced to and the wordscape ad is ridiculous, you can't get it off the screen! I expect to see ads but not after each play.

I started the game a month about a month ago. It was ok, I progressed far-ish. Then I noticed, if I spent even a small amt of cash, the levels seemed to get easier. When I wouldn't, the levels became a Lot harder to pass?? Understandable, gaming co need those purchases, to help the co going. It just feels a bit to configured, to make sure you need to pay to play a bit more often. It ruins the play experience for the player. Will be uninstalling unfortuenately.

Game was fun. You get to compete with others for power ups. Unfortunately a couple weeks ago, something changed and now some players are able to post scores that shouldn't be possible. For example, in my current challenge on one level 2nd place is about 138k. The first place person has well over a million. For the 6 levels the person has over 10 million. Typical 6 level scores are between 1000 and 1500. Basically the must be an exploit.

This game is very cute and true to Simon's Cat. It does however have a few hurdles, like you need keys to get to certain puzzles and you either need to pay for them or wait a few days which really hinders the gameplay. It's definitely fun while it lasts but I wouldn't get too comfortable because it is true to the mobile game etiquite where you need to pay to keep playing or watch ads. I am very disappointed.

I enjoyed the game until I finished Level 39. After that, the game requires 3 keys to advance. So I played to obtain the first key. Then it says the kitties are tired and I have to wait almost 4 hours to play to win a 2nd key. Other options are to pay or ask Facebook friends to send keys. Yeah that's not happening. It was fun while it lasted. Thanks and delete.

The pop action playing is fine & can even be challenging but the app/game as a whole is unresponsive, slow, freezes, glitches & sticks. The screens don't change, you can't click or close out their ads for in-game purchases, you can't move onto the next screen. Ads freeze & don't load/get stuck. I have some intense, high graphics games on my device yet this low graphic one is so slow & frustrating it's not worth trying to play it. I've waited more than 2 minutes just waiting for the next board.

The game is nice to play. Music is calm & relaxing, not obnoxious like most games. But the number of ads/pop-ups to buy helpers is obnoxious. There's an ad & a minimum of 2 pop-ups to close out of after each game & before starting a new game each time. Also, the extra amount of stuff all over the screen is ridiculous! Such as mini games. There are 12 things on the screen! Could be simplified into 3 & a drop down. It takes away from being able to see the beautiful map! And It's overwhelming!!

Started out a great game..........and THEN! Game is obviously designed to get you to purchase power ups, constantly giving you the wrong bubble color (even with the "triple swap" power up...giving you all 3 of the same WRONG color over and over). Finally got to the point where it was far more frustrating than fun. edit: I like how it says "for an older version".....it's not, app was up to date prior to deleting

Ads have increased too much. I loved Simon's Pop Time for a long time. Adorable cats and graphics, just like the original animation. Game was fun and relaxing, perfect combination of challenging and playable. But the ads have increased to where the game is unplayable. They now play after every single level. You can't even get the daily without an ad first. I get that ads are necessary, but they've lost the balance & so many ads just makes it annoying. Also, scoring made no sense. Uninstalling.

It's a great and fun game, a cool take on a classic and one I really enjoy! There are two things that keep it from being a five star game at present: the first is the amount of time the game freezes up in between literally every screen (if it's load times, make a load screen or loading indicator!) and the second is the immense number of pop up messages every time you load the game. I don't care about the current status of the level rushes, Facebook connections, star challenges, hot streaks, treasure hunts, one live challenges, etc. Just put em on the side and let me enjoy this wonderful game!

Alright, I see you, Tactile. Thank you very much for taking my (and others') criticisms seriously and making real changes!! The game is much more playable now (with more rewarding challenges) and your power-ups are much more accessible! I gave you back two stars I had taken away. There's still a couple things I would change - like the persistent reminder that I can turn on notifications "if I want." But other than that, this is so much better. 😁✨

Would get more stars but my main issue is are for some reason I'm getting an ad after every single level when I played 90 levels without ads for free. And one of the challenges they introduce at that point is water balloons that make you instantly lose The level if you touch it and you can hit things off screen. So therefore you accidentally hit the water balloons without knowing. Which in my case power-ups were touching things off screen that I could not see. Lost seven times because of this.

Update: I've been playing this game for years and never had a problem with my progress transferring from an old phone to a new one until now. I just got aa Galaxy S24 plus and logged in and all my progress, coins, etc. are gone! I'm pretty sure I signed in with Facebook originally but that is no longer an option - we have to sign in with Google. My old phone has a log in button showing, as though I never logged in. So much fun! Love the graphics and popping bubbles!

I really love this game I made it to level 993 and 4,341 coins. I changed phones. I have to start all over again, at number one. I remember this happening the last time I went to a new phone. It really sucks!! So now I hardly play it at all. Losing all the points and coins it's just not fun anymore. This really needs to change, so we don't lose everything Thanks, Tina E
