Gardenscapes - New Acres

Been playing for many years and the other side games in the game are getting impossible to complete. Earing power ups in levels barely adds up and the time to takes for the power bar to refill takes too long. Plus the amount of energy it takes to clear a path is unfair along with getting access to the treasures. It's becoming impossible to play without having to spend money and even then its difficult.

Number of moves have gone down, so it's almost impossible to beat the levels without boosters, or spending days on them. No longer have choices to make in area redesigns - there's only one or two things where you actually get to make a choice. The bonus redos are pretty much impossible to complete unless you spend hours on the game (and I really don't like the makeover one).

I used to love this game. I would play for hours when lives were so easy to get. The levels were ok. It maybe took a few times to get through. Seeing the garden grow and change was lovely. Now its a boring task master. Its so hard to get lives. The levels are so hard, so many red levels in a row. The stupid pink level is so annoying. Its pointless and only there to rip us off from progressing with boosters. The boat race is stupid also. This could be the greatest game but needs reviewing.

Good game. I am not a big fan of the challenge stages, and I do feel they should be optional. One can progress without the added rewards, if they don't want to participate on the challenge stage. SERIOUS ISSUE: Pixel 6 Pro gets really hot after 10 minutes of play time. I have been considering uninstalling the game. It's unfortunate, as I spend a considerable amount of money on this game.

I really love this game! The only problem is that on most levels they are pretty difficult, and they don't give you NEAR enough time before the level ends and you have to start over again, and then it will give you the option of using a bunch of coins, which is pretty much MOST of your coins a lot of the time! But then, it only gives you like 15 seconds more of time which isn't no time at all! So it's like you used all your coins for no reason! So PLEASE change this! Thanks! Emily Stallings

I have been playing this game for years. I love it.😁 Level 2000!They update often and add new events. A few things I don't like...1- I never get to the end of any renovation, event, or golden ticket. Not without spending a ton of money out of my pocket. I would love the option to finish one for once. 2- when you have a power up for a limited amount of time it will delay by cutting back to the main screen and playing out story scenes. There should be an option to go straight to the next level.

I really did enjoy it for some time. It kept my interest and I loved it when you get on a roll with free boosters. However, when a level is just impossible, and the demo online has almost double the moves it is so disheartening. You can't contact the team successfully, instead just a robot with useless options. Update: thank you for your reply. Currently game crashing, after uninstalling and reinstalling twice.

Fun game, and I've been playing for years. Lately though it is taking over 90seconds to load which is ridiculous and then get stuck on a level for ages! Often have to wait for days to collect all 3 boosters which is the minimum needed to pass a hard or super hard level. I don't mind a challenging level, but making them so hard every 2nd or 3rd level makes progress very slow. I've given up buying the ticket for events - even if you play say 30 minutes a day you'll never even get half finished.

At level 5900. Thank you Gardenscapes for such a great game and great story line. Regretfully, I am about done though. The levels are just getting way too hard. I am increasingly unwilling to make increasing expenditures to keep things going. I will really miss Austin and friends even though they're just computer generated characters. Some things just become impractical after a while. For those of you just getting started, enjoy. But just know where you will stop when the time comes.

I used to love this game but it has become tediously frustrating. There are too few opportunities to win bonuses or tools so you end up having to tackle really hard levels without extra help. And even if you have tools available, you end up wasting them because it's rarely down to skill. You have to play repeatedly, for weeks on end, until it decides to give you a winning board. Until then, there's nothing you can do to complete some levels. Needs more skill / less chance, and more bonus tools.

It is unfair that you lose all the boosters you built up if you cannot succesfully complete a challenge level. The mere definition of "challenge" means that you have a choice to accept or not, but not in this game. Either give an option to skip a challenge level, or allow gamers to compete but NOT lose all boosters built up. Challenge levels are normally twice as difficult as "super-hard" levels. I changed my rating from 4 stars to 2 stars due to this.

I've had this game on every phone for 8 years. I'm deleting and never downloading again. In the last 2 months the game has decreased the number of moves given and successful matches. Boosters are placed where they can't be used for the entire level. This happened every time I used a booster, not just every so often. Hard and super hard levels are now every 3rd level. It went from enjoyable to frustrating. I'm done.

This game used to be a fun way to pass time. Waiting on new levels in the players cup it seems like all the old levels they pick are hard ones and just put them on repeat. Why not have the player cup start back at level 1 and just play through all the levels again in a row. Also the new levels now seem harder than they have ever been. You have to spend money just to win and if you choose to waste money one it they have changed what you get with your money now. It's really frustrating.

I use to love this game and was so excited every Thursday when new levels were released, but since they changed the format it's not much fun to play anymore. I didn't mind spending money when needed, but now it takes forever to pass even the easiest levels. You pretty much have to use boosters all the time. Most of the events start getting very annoying when you're not willing to spend money. The stupid gold cup is set so hard that without boosters don't even bother and the rewards are minimal.

Used to get addicted to this game, but the more this game updated, the harder the game. It's unfair when you play the hard/super hard level with just a few moves. Not only that, after you lose and you wanna keep trying, you need to pay a high amount (900) to finish your level while the money you earned from each level is only around 100 (unless special level). It need to lower the amount of payment.

Love this game, just wish when you win extra minutes you could save these to use at a more convenient time. Always manage to win these just as I am about to go on an appointment! Also to show how many lives you have left whilst playing a game. Why people moan about having to pay for extras, you don't, just keep playing and treat it as a challenge for yourself. Just persevere. Great feeling when you achieve a super hard level without help.

Freezes up. First time followed instructions to correct but lost all progress and had to start over. Second time. Followed instructions to correct the problem, only lost progress from quest. Took until after quest before situation was rectified. But at least it was fixed. Only lost a few dollars and some permanent items. However, despite this flaw, this is a wonderful game.

The art and storyline are great, but like Homescapes, the levels are incredibly hard, taking very little skill to solve, but depend mostly on the lucky combinations of random pieces. I get a headache from mindless swiping through a series of useless moves, since there are few good possibilities. Very clear game designers don't know what they're doing.

Nice graphics, difficulty is spot on, starts easy, gradually increasing, but remains doable. Ads are not too intrusive and don't spoil the gaming experience, however they (if you choose to watch them) help you to to gain coins, which allow you to buy extra moves (which you might need to pass the hardest levels), The game has plenty of levels, I'm around level 9980 without paying a cent. New levels and gaming features are added regularly. This game is addictive!!

I really wish I could give the game good rating but I can't. The artstyle is very nice and I like the characters and the story. The mini games and competitions are fun BUT the game requires massive money investment. I bought a few things a few times as I wished to give the game a fair chance but around the level 900 I got to the point that I would have to buy boosters every hard or super hard level and that is not worth it. The money investment has 0 return value. 1 star from me then

Very very orientated to getting money off you by making some levels almost impossible without extras. Lots off offers of help involving purchases. At the end of each failed level you can carry on for extra coin payments but you cant go back to the playing area to see if it is possible/worth it .Other games have better programming. I am on the verge of deleting this app if it does not improve. It relies too heavily on luck.

I have been playing this game for quite some time now. Sadly it is becoming less and less enjoyable. The amount of turns allowed for some levels is ridiculously low. I'm not some super human master gamer. Also the events and extras are getting to expensive to really complete them. The most recent one with the fashion, some task required 4k plus in the event currency to complete and you only generate 100 per level unless it was a special one or you filled the little task bar. Frustrating!

I like this game when I'm bored and it's fun, however I've been stuck on a hard level for quite a while now. I think there should be an option to skip levels with stars and earn 3 stars for completing a hard level. We should also get more than only 5 lives with the match 3 games, it just frustrates me when I've almost done it then run out of lives.

Thought at first the game was great for escaping mundane life events. HOWEVER! I have discovered it's essentially a PAY to play game. The golden ticket is a waste of money, as it lasted 2 hours before cutting off. A season ticket for just 2 hours. Mmm! Additional purchases were also necessary as the levels are ridiculously hard when you have such limited moves. I feel frustrated and feel ripped off with the spend. I have uninstalled today. Felt like I should make others aware before installing.

Great little time waster. Your typical match 3+ game. A great mix of easier levels and difficult levels .. and cute prizes. Build a beautiful garden, there are about three options for most items so you can customize fairly well. Many new extra competitions with seasonal or themed prizes. It's easy to get extra lives as long as you have a good team you can post your requests to! Using real world money might make things move faster, but there really is no need to spend ur hard earned money here.

I love the game and is very enjoyable to play, however, I would give it more stars if the game itself were a little more fair. I never seem to be able to finish the renovation projects or the special decorating projects because there are not enough moves to finish the harder levels and it makes the game frustrating at times especially when you always have to buy what you need and don't have the money to spend on game items. Also, I think you should earn more than one star per level.
