-Minor update
I’m used to ads. And after a few levels, it’s easy to figure out when there will be ads. Here’s where I have a problem though. After a level, it’s says “watch ad for 3x diamonds” after skipping a few times I found there is going to be an ad anyway, might as well get 30 diamonds instead of 10. BUT I DONT!! I watch the ad, it shows 30 at the bottom, but ONLY GIVES YOU 20!! I don’t know what the diamonds are for, nor do I even care. What I care about is the blatant LIE of it all. I’m not an idiot. I can do simple addition. Start with 206 diamonds. Add 30, that’s 236, not 226. Do better, guys. As far as game play, though, it’s a great game. Simple but fun, colorful, and easy to play with just enough light challenge to keep it interesting. Honestly, if it wasn’t for the lying about the diamonds, I would give it 5 stars, even with the over abundance in ads.
The actual game is fun and does make you pay attention… but that “rubber band challenge” is beyond obnoxious. After every level, there is a little container of rubber bands at the top center of your screen. When you win the level, an object appears in the middle of the screen. You finger swipe each individual rubber band from the container to the object. The bands squeeze the object, and when enough have been applied, the object bursts. This is incredibly boring and there is no point to it. There is no way to skip it. As you go up in levels, more and more rubber bands appear in the container. You have to swipe every single band from the container onto the object. One at a time. I do NOT want to swipe 72 freaking rubber bands, individually, half way down the screen, after every freaking level! And on top of that, the container is there while you are playing, and hides part of the playing field, so you can’t tell whether you should release that particular flexi band or not. Get rid of that stupid container, lose the ridiculous swiping. I am so aggravated by that nonsense that I am deleting. Sad, because I like the basic game, but that asinine swiping ruins it completely.
The actual game is good. But, more time is spent navigating the ads than playing the actual game. And, the “challenges” are not challenges at all. You just waste time flicking your finger against the screen to drag rubber bands around whatever it is that you’re going to eventually explode. There is no thought, no strategy, no mental activity involved. It would be better if that part was just animated, set to automatically happen after each puzzle. Finally, many of the ads default to their sound being on; there’s no opportunity to turn off the sound until it is too late. And, sometimes there is no option to turn off their sound.
This game is rated for 12+ but yet some of these levels are so inappropriate it’s not even funny. Please explain why in order to finish certain levels, I have to unzip the clothes on a lady to reveal her underwear or bra?? The rest of the game is fine…mundane and a great time waster but I can’t give more than one star bc of the blatant inappropriate and sexualized levels aimed at 12 year olds. Got a response from developer : "Dear user, perhaps you haven’t discovered the game’s full potential. Play some more and you’ll find a whole world of exciting levels and interesting features. We regularly add a lot of new content to the game. We hope you’ll give us another chance!" I don’t think the developers even read or comprehend what the reviews state. Why would I want to find more exciting levels and what other content are they gonna add? Taking off men’s clothing? This is still completely inappropriate and needs to be removed from the App Store.
I like untangling the rubber bands. If you tap the wrong band it locks the one near it and you just have to stretch it back to the peg to unlock it. It’s fun trying to solve it without getting any locks, but a few levels you have to do that to free a different band. That part of the game is fun. I don’t like the half where you use the collected bands to explode random objects. That’s just a lot of swiping down and bothers my wrist. I paid $2.99 to remove the ads which I feel is very reasonable. If I’m enjoying a game I like to pay some to support the developers. I deleted the game because of too much swiping.
The game itself is fun and relaxing, but it has a lot of problems. I’m seeing a lot of reviews with the same issues, so it’s pretty clear the developers are far more concerned with ad money than customer satisfaction. Even the ads are flawed… there are way too many between levels with no option to pay to stop them, but when you want to watch ads for a bonus or to access a challenge round none are available. And you can’t collect any bonuses without watching an ad. More levels and much more difficult levels would be great, and the dragging bands after levels gets old FAST. It would be great to have an option to drag them all in one move. Fixing those issues would definitely move this app up to five stars.
Game is ok but some levels are inappropriate such as pulling down zippers to show “womanly parts”(that should not be addressed for those who actually want to see those parts) but anywho another thing is I completed so many levels and got over 100+ ads I had to disconnect my WiFi to actually try and enjoy the game as it was made for and also 1 extra thing why is the ads really inappropriate such as games that show womanly parts or ads that show ways to hide a body or getting away with crimes. What are gen-alpha people learning? How to hide a body, how to get away with theft, how to make a weapon,etc just nonsense. And finally after playing this game it feels like I lost a extra braincell. Thank you for reading
For a few days I didn’t have any ads. There’s an object at the end of every level. You have to finish a block puzzle and get rubber bands to go on whatever the current object is. When you get enough rubber bands on it the object bursts. Until now I didn’t have to watch an ad at this point. Now I can’t proceed in the game unless I watch an ad. I caved in and watched the ad. Now that I’ve completed the level, I have to watch another ad to proceed. I’ve only been playing the game for a few days. Now the game is crashing every time I open it (even if I clear browser history and restart my device) and think I’m done. I’m really regretting supporting the developer and am going to try to get a refund.
