Really have enjoyed this game, because now I can't at anymore until the developer adds for levels. There are a lot of levels to begin with, I think 760 lvls, & I just reached it 2 nights ago. Really enjoy the different looking characters & each one has a unique power. I would like to see more events, a daily challenge(s), so a player could gather the stars they need to improve each character's power....please add more lvls, & maybe adjust the amount of stars..**9-2-21: Ty for responding so fast!

Fun, challenging but unlike many other games of this genre it never feels like a money hole. There are a lot of optional advertisements, but the key word is optional. Love that. The controls are simple and the goals are never complicated to figure out. I do think they should explain certain dynamics more, such as how the teleporters work, or how many times bronze beetles need hit, etc., but it's not difficult to figure out after trial and error. Overall fun way to spend time.

One of the more balanced match 3 games I've played. It does have very minor glitches, like 1 tile won't move for a round every 100+ levels. The only disappointment is that purchasing boosters or coin with rl cash is too expensive. I like to support games I enjoy with small purchases regularly (not necessary to play but makes it more fun for the day) but the cost of boosters (that are easy to go through quickly) is way too high.

This game has cute characters & great graphics that's it!! The quests you don't know if you are doing them or have completed them. It is also difficult to find/gain artifacts. Also like other people have said you pass levels by luck which is aggravating!! I have been stuck on level 118 for a week now & have tried everything also not enough moves. The season journey is just as hard if not harder with less moves ad well.

Pros: Great graphics, ads are not intrusive, fun story line, and enjoyable. Cons: there are a couple of game play issues when using items, they give alot at the beginning but it slows down greatly after you get farther in to the game, and I don't think what they offer for money is balanced or favorable to the player, also the upgrade system is overly expensive compared to what you earn just by playing and what the upgrades cost.

Updated. See where reviews are it costs money, levels hard, buggy. Samsung A53. No bugs. Never had to play a level more than 5 times. No adds at all, they ask but you don't have to watch. There is for sure a story if you read it. I love it. Great graphics, cute characters. No problems with game play. Second time playing through whole game. Love the background music.

The game has some awesome potential. Beautiful graphics for sure. I definitely love the characters. My biggest issue is that the "insane" levels are only insane because they are purely based on luck and not any sort of strategy which means you spend hours or days stuck on the same level. The power ups are semi-useless as well tbh. The game is decent but could be great.

I like the app, the colors, the navigation and settings. However, I am stuck on level 29. When I think I'm getting through, then I run out of moves. Frustrating. **Update 2022: Now try that I downloaded it again, the game freezes up and kicks me out right in the middle of me playing! Frustrated 🥴!! May have to uninstall again, this is the third time!

NO ADs !!!!!! Love that!!! Stellar graphics, unique storyline, well done! The only 2 differences I would recommend would be that you're able to empty the bank without actual money payment. The other would be more jewels bursting a play or more/better/different tools to use during game to achieve goals. Otherwise, I love this app. Play it everyday. Kudos Developer(s)! Keep up the outstanding work! Ty

I would rate it higher but there are no FAQs or instructions about the game that I can find. For some obstacles, it is easy to know how to remove them. For other obstacles, it is not obvious and matching next to them or blasting them does nothing. I went to the game website listed in Play, but this game was not listed. I didn't see any help menu in the game either. Plus, my review keeps disappearing. Not cool.

Its a nice match 3 game, with nice graphics, and no ads. The story is a bit lacking. Many levels are purely rng based as well. This makes for an unsatisfying play time. I dont think levels should take hours or days to beat. If they changed a few things so it didn't make you feel like banging your head on the wall, I might re install.

Great matching game with beautiful graphics, great sounds and fun gameplay. After playing for a bit now, the game is proving to be pretty difficult, which I actually appreciate. I reviewed this game a few months back. There was a bit of an issue with the game asking for pay to win/ play boosts after every level. This had been corrected or at least changed since my initial review. This game is proving to be challenging and very fun.

I canceled my subscription because paying didn't give that many benefits. It stated it was good till 11/30. Wrong! It instantly took away what the subscription was for! I emailed a couple days ago about this. Yet no answer was received. So I went to PayPal and requested they get my refund. Buyer beware, it's not enough benefits for the cost. I mean can't you at least fix it so things double on their own. Instead of having to click through all the end game stuff it could do it on its own.

This game is addicting and fun. But it takes forever to get new levels - Update, when was the last time new levels were added? And I don't consider the "Challenge" or "Pools of time" new levels. If I complete one of these little events, that only run for a few day, I should be able to play them again without winning the main prize again. Waiting for new levels is frustrating....

275 levels in and cut off. For money. The update essentially ransomed my progress for $9.99. That's not how we make friends. Still: It's a very pretty game with a storyline we have zero investment in. The graphics are indeed superb and the match 3 skill set is average to difficult. The characters and their powers are cute but it takes decades to acquire anything of substance without massive payout. Then they want me to pay for a "full version" after playing 3 years for free? Betrayal. Uninstall.

Great until 'insane level 706'. I've been playing this game for a long time. Sadly after reaching this puzzle level, I'm deleting the app. I like a challenge but 4 days on the same puzzle is no fun. No amount of stored resources helps on the puzzle level and there's no way to skip it. I definitely loved the app until this.

I have loved this game, it used to be a 5-star game for me. The graphics, the story, the unique take on match 3 play, the characters, some special events. But now, with the newest update, apparently, I'm being forced to pay to play at all. This has been a great game, but I'm not going to purchase it and continue to make in-game purchases, at increasing prices. I'm going to uninstall.
