“Why I’m giving it one star — Half the time when I start the game it makes it unavailable and gives me things that are not possible to continue” — ★☆☆☆☆“TOO MANY ADS/ PHONE HEATS UP — Literally the best app for games. There are several in one. However, once you get close enough to beat a challenge the game rids so you lose ….the pieces that you get purposely won’t fit. Subjecting me to watching ads. my phone heats up, the volume goes out and there are TOO MANY ADS!!! AN AD AFTER *EVERY* WIN OR LOSS! ITS VERY ANNOYING !!!!! I UNDERSTAND THE ADS KEEP THE GAME FREE BUT…” — ★☆☆☆☆“New update — I hate that new update I swear everytime im doing it and clearing the board it pops up with a whole new pattern it’s dumb” — ★☆☆☆☆

We have not read this app's reviews yet. Apple rations that feed to about one page per address every ten minutes and refuses datacentre addresses, so the reading is done by hand — the rating above is live, the complaints are not there yet.
