I LOVE THE GAME BUT PLEASE LET ME PAY TO REMOVE ADS

The concept is very unique, the puzzles are fun and satisfying, and the art and music are well done. This is one of the nicer puzzle games I have found on mobile, except for the horrible ads that constantly interrupt the gameplay. I have to close the app and open it again every single time I complete a puzzle, or else I will be bombarded with nonstop ads. The ads are loud and annoying, and some of them require you to wait 30+ seconds before you can skip them. This intrusive and frustrating method of monetization makes the game borderline unplayable. I understand that the devs need to make money somehow… but the vast majority of games like this give the players an option to pay a few dollars to remove the ads!! It’s baffling to me that this feature which is standard for most mobile games is not available. I would gladly pay money for this! I would even consider paying for a monthly subscription to support the developers who add new puzzles to the game daily! I never thought I would be ASKING a developer to add microtransactions to a game, but please consider allowing players to purchase something to remove ads. I literally want to give this game my money but it’s impossible to do that for some reason.

ADD A SKIP TO BOTTOM BUTTON

I love this game. It’s so relaxing and one of my go tos. I don’t even mind the amount of adds everyone else complains about(though I would not be mad if there were less 👀). My big issue is that when you open the app, it opens at the top of the level menu. This seems not a super bad issue but you’re on level 345 and have to scroll for 2 minutes to get back to the level you are on, it gets annoying really fast. This could be a very simple fix. Literally all I ask for is a “skip to bottom” button where it brings you to the level that you left off on. Or even better just avoid that entirely and have it open you where you left off. This is literally my only complaint, it’s so good otherwise, keep up the good work!

Cool game but daily puzzles have a bug!

I like the game but it won’t give me the stars for the daily puzzles completed on time. I got one star for one day that it was completed on time and then it stopped working it won’t give me the stars anymore for when it’s completed on time. I tried deleting and re downloading it but it was the same thing then I tried it on a different device it was the same thing. As well as daily puzzles stopped being uploaded after Feb 28, that was the last time a daily puzzle was uploaded so I thought maybe it was something wrong with my app but again it still was having the same problem on different devices. This gave could be 5 stars if they fix these bugs.

Overwhelmed with ads; no way to reduce/eliminate ads

Promoting this app as a tool for ASMR or stress relief is ludicrous. Gameplay is interrupted by ads not only at the start & end of every puzzle, but also throughout a puzzle. Even with the simplest of the puzzles that takes one minute to complete, you’re still likely to watch ads* that cumulatively run a minute and a half. The second star is simply my acknowledgment that the gameplay itself was great. Unfortunately the ads were so excessive that enjoying the gameplay iwas buried by my frustration. At the start the user is teased with a promise of new features unlocking after completing a certain number of puzzles. Since the gameplay is enjoyable, I gritted through ad after ad in the hope I’d encounter a way to at least reduce the frequency of ads. But it’s simply not an option. Most simply put, this is a free game that is made truly unpalatable by excessive ads. I’d pay for this app outright, as again I did find the game itself well done. I’d also make an in-app purchase if it was available. But given the absence of either option, I’ve deleted the app and hope to find a similar one that is not stifled by excessive ads. *I timed my last three puzzles. As I expected, each minute of actual gameplay results in approximately a minute and half of ads!

Wayyyy too many ads

It’s honestly a really fun game, and the calming music is a wonderful touch, but holy moly the ADS. I like that there are no “lives”, so if for example you connect the wrong dots you don’t penalized and can easily remove it and continue going without having to start over. However, after every little section of the puzzle, there’s almost always an ad and it’s just annoying. I wish the developers would listen to the reviews and cut down on the number of ads because I see I’m not the only one upset about this. I understand why free apps have ads, but this is hands down the most ad-riddled app I’ve ever come across. It’s frustrating and doesn’t make me want to play it because by the 7th ad I come across in less than 10 minutes, I’m too annoyed to want to keep playing. Such a shame because it’s an enjoyable game otherwise

A few critiques + a glitch

This is a great game but could do with some improvements. I’ve done over 500 puzzles and it’s annoying to have to scroll through those puzzles every time I open the app just to get to the puzzles I haven’t done. I wish the game auto-scrolled you to the first unfinished level and then let you scroll back if you want to replay levels. Also why have “daily” puzzles if you’re not going to add them daily? There haven’t been daily puzzles added since the end of June 2021. It’s now August. And worse yet, there aren’t even any old daily puzzles past April 1 so I can’t even just go backwards in the calendar while I wait for them to upload 2 months worth of “daily” puzzles. And I just discovered that level 555 has a glitch that makes it impossible to complete.

SO MANY ADS

I was so excited to find this game because it was the closest one I’ve found to the NYT game “vertex”. The puzzles on this one are a lot easier but I still was happy to find something to help my vertex addiction (NYT only gives out one puzzle a day). But after a couple minutes of playing I got so bummed out when I realized there were ads and not even an option to turn them off. There are so many ads in this game you can’t even complete one puzzle without going through at least 4-5 of them and that’s on a small one. The larger ones you will be going through double maybe more. Every couple moves brings you to an ad, at least they give you the option to skip after watching some of it but still. Then sometimes after completing a puzzle or starting a new one you have to watch another ad. Like another commenter said, I understand the developers wanting to make money but at least give an option to pay to get rid of the ads. I would happily pay so I could play this game. But since I have to watch so many just to complete one tiny puzzle and even more for a larger one, I'm not even going to play anymore. TLDR: way too many ads just for one puzzle. Not even an option to pay to get rid of them. Devs, Pleaassee make it an option so I can play this game.

Ads galore!

The concept and game play are good with room for improvement. Each picture is broken down into small sections then it moves over to the next section once a section is completed. The problem is each section is so small that it takes less than a minute to finish, then there is an ad. One small picture may be broken into 6 sections, so you are stuck watching 5 ads while making the picture then another when you finish. Their motto is draw and relax. How can I relax when I’m forced to watch an ad every 20-30 seconds! Many of the ads being shown, you cannot skip after a few seconds either. There isn’t even an option to buy an ad free version either so no matter what, you are stuck watching the ads. It’s so annoying that I ended up deleting the game. Totally not worth the frustration.
