“Too many ads — I used to love this app and use it all the time. Literally done thousands of puzzles. Had collected trophies for full months of puzzles going back years, all of my history got deleted on an update. Fine. Start playing again and mid way through a puzzle I get an ad. Cmon, mid way through?!? Can’t even let me finish the puzzle first? This is ridiculous. It’s too much” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Ads during games?? — The fact that over my 10 minutes puzzle I had 8 ads is absurd. That’s almost an add a minute during gameplay. Do ads in between fine but that many in the middle of the puzzle is game ruining. Deleting the app because I’m just over it. I AM NOT PAYING YOU TO NOT HAVE ADS IN THE MIDDLE OF MY GAMEPLAY. Get over yourselves.” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“It’s okay, but ads cutting in the middle of gameplay — It’s one thing to have ads, it’s another to have ads starting a game, finishing a game and starting the app(that’s a bit much don’t you think?) but ads in the middle of gameplay? Hell no. Get out” — ★★☆☆☆ · English

“Awful — Overfilled with ads. I spend more times on ads than actually being able to play. So sad and disappointing.” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Ads — Super annoying and cringe mobile game ads interrupting several times on a single game” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Ads so many… — As a new player I finally got the hang of it, then as I progressed levels the ads become every other entry making the game completely unplayable. It’s a shame too, there is no way to maintain any concentration or rhythm as that’s why people play.” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English

“Super aggressive popups — This thing is billed as no-ads, but it has a super aggressive popup coming up that - despite assurances - you cannot skip. Must be a better sudoku out there. Do not recommend.” — ★★☆☆☆ · English“Bait and switch — They made this game practically impossible to play. The new adds are essentially you playing a different game with no option to close it out or skip. You can try to bypass by swiping up and closing out the game completely, then reopen it, but why should you have to do that?” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English“Ads that never go away — Like ads? Then this app is for you. Long, long apps that have no exit button. After a week it’ll force you to install a new version and start over.” — ★☆☆☆☆ · English
