Homescapes

I just gave up on the game. Although it seems a nice game, the moves to finish a level are too few, just 16 really? You play a lot "candy crush" games and those ones like puzzles are really rare. Plus, you have only 5 hearts to replay the candy crush and then you get frustrated because you can't advance much. It's a frustrating game because you can't play without payment. Just put some ads then. It's better than get stuck everytime. Really annoying.

Fun game. It advertises differently than how it plays. It really is just a matching game that unlocks decorations for a mansion (and cute pets as an in-app purchase)--which is a great game on its own. The characters are likeable and even have developing personalities. The danger scenarios (as seen in advertisement) are rare mini games that aren't a part of the main storyline. Despite this, I love it anyway. It's worth the in-app purchases. Very good.

I'm on level 2712. Obviously, I enjoy playing it. But if you don't want to get stuck on the same level & play that level 100x over to get to the next (without paying to "play on" or buy power ups, has nothing to do with skill) don't bother. Otherwise, I like the layout, themes, & play of the game. Wish I could change it to 1 star. Funny how you can't beat a level after several dozen tries with however many moves you start out with, then suddenly you beat it easily with many moves left.

First off, the description of the game is not like the actual game. Very different. Second, the game closes out randomly, usually when you're on a winning streak, and it loses all the progress you have made. This happenes even if the game is fully updated. Then there is the issue of the powerup time reward. The time doesn't stop whenever the game takes over and pops up your rewards or when they are randonly introducing a new storyline. This cuts into the reward time significantly.

Would be a fun and perfect game if they didn't constantly require you to pay real money to make any progress in the game. So often you get very little moves required to complete the board to move on. Having challenging games are great, but not when it relies so heavily on pay-to-win mechanics. Wouldn't recommend homescapes unless you wanna deal with that for literally every other level. Unless you get perfect rng, it's not gonna let you slide through. Fair warning.

The game would be a lot of fun if it didn't contain ridiculously difficult levels! I have been on a level for 3 days, have used all available helps multiple times to no avail, and I am above average intelligence. NOT FUN!! I don't mind needing to try several times, but I expect to make progress faster than this. If you are willing to spend money to keep purchasing in-app helps, go ahead and play; otherwise, save yourself the annoyance.

I don't like the races that they make you "enter." If I have a 5 minute boost, I can lose 10% of boost time waiting to get thru a start-up I don't want because it's rare I can win 15 rounds in 1 sitting, so no chance at the race prize. This is a time filler only. Also, I am frustrated by levels being impossible to win during a team challenge, only to have the same level be a breeze as soon as the challenge is over. It's like playing with dice loaded for the house during challenges.

I like the game but its too expensive. There are no tips that can be used to beat the super hard levels; It takes a bunch of purchases. Going YouTube to learn more is BOGUS because the tutorials you will notice have boosters and coins which flag the software that you spent $$$ money which makes it amazingly easy to win the level. Decorating areas is fun but some of the rooms just tick me off with itty-bitty pieces of bric-brac. And do you really place furniture into a dirty room first?

Very interesting game. I really like it, however some levels are very hard, not enough chances to get the challenge done. Very frustrating to play the same level for days. Though I enjoy playing this game it's starting to get very frustrating since the levels are getting harder and not enough chances to finish such hard levels. I changed my score to four stars because of it.

Advertisement for this game was misleading. The advertisements were for some game in-game that I decided to try only to find myself playing something completely different, and some matching game in order to progress in the main game. Unfortunately I will be deleting this game as I don't have time to replay a level x amount of times, or to have to contact a support team for help. It shouldn't be so difficult that you have to contact someone anyways. A shame I won't see the completed house!

I started playing this game back in the year 2018, at that time this game was great! It was fair that's why... Now it works in some weird algorithm, where You win for a Period of time but then lose for a really long period of time. And it isn't self conflicting either, the levels literally become impossible to beat for a while, but then out of nowhere it's super easy to beat! Please update this flaw. It's ridiculous!

5/22/22 still not past level 78 ugh This is a very fun game and challenging but...Frustrating part is the amount of moves to what needs to be accomplished. Very hard to beat without spending coins or being able to produce tools. Have to play multiply times over again and again. This is the kind of thing that causes me to give up on games like this.

I don't know why are people leaving a review saying levels are hard to pass. This is a challenging game, you don't need to buy anything if you play to win. Eventually you will pass. I was stuck on a level for 3 days, multiple times, it's just makes the game more interesting, not annoying, it's annoying if you pass every level after 1-2-3 attempts. I'm on level 3000 and have NEVER purchased anything. Play and have fun, don't play to waste time.

It's a really fun game. The teams are great to be a part of. I do think some of the levels when you get above 3,200 are a little more difficult than need to be. Spending 2-3 days on a level is a little to frustrating. It is a game & should be fun & enjoyable. The graphics are really awesome & the story lines are a lot of fun. Support has been really great if you have a rare issue & works to fix things quickly.

I've been liking the game so far. Nice designs, good story's, a good amount of side storylines, ect ect. But holy heck spending 5 hours on a level is not fun. By the time you get to level 50+ it just starts to get ridiculously hard. It gives a low amount of moves, huge boards, and to big of tasks to the point where you need to waste all of your special stuff and coins just to pass one level so you can turn on a light. I understand it's supposed to be a challenging strategy game, but come on.

Just got to level 101 and will be deleting it again. I've downloaded this game multiple times because of it's enticing advertising. However, the game has nothing to do with it. The fun puzzles shown in ads are a recent addition, and I've only seen about 5 for 100 levels. Levels take multiple attempts and the 5 "lives" restrict your gameplay. You can't play whenever you want, instead only when your "lives" refill. Each "life" takes 30min to refill. Horrible game, I don't recommend it.

So far (about lvl 30) I'm enjoying the game. My ABSOLUTE FAVORITE PART is the mini side games which are like what are shown in the ads. I also hope the levels don't suddenly get ridiculously more & more difficult to clear, taking all the fun out of the game and causing me to quit playing and move on to something else. A bit of a challenge is one thing, but I don't want to have to play a level 4/5/6++ times to be able to move on. Too frustrating & stressful, who needs that?

I love this game. Just wish I could get plays more often. It's too long to refill lives. The decorating takes too many stars sometimes. And for ridiculous stuff. The options don't even match or are ugly. I like how it doesn't cost you to change and see the other options though! And importantly I like not be riddled with ads.

Like the game, but stuck on level 54, and no way to get past it without spending money, which I'm not going to do. Love the game though! ***Also, when I was trying to do levels quickly so I could win the RC car race, I kept losing because it cuts away to show me some tutorial or the swan season unlock or a mini game!!! When you're trying to complete a time-sensitive task, all interruptions should be by-passed or held until completion. ***

Loving the challenge. But one would think that after reaching game levels over 1,000 the points scored would be higher than 1 point per game win. How about making it 2 points per level win. Also there should be a check and balance in place when deciding whether to spend the $900 on an extra 5 roll. Because there has been quite a few times I've wonder what happened to my money. The airplanes are useless when chosen before game play they're only useful during game play.

The game itself is fun, WHEN YOU GET TO PLAY IT, there are so many events and happenings that completely block you from playing for several minutes, that I get so frustrated by. Unskippable cutscenes, animations - they KILL this game and somehow you're unable to turn this stuff off. In addition, when you start your day, you have the click away something like 3 (sometimes more!) pop-ups. Played for a long time, but this is getting worse and worse, lost me for sure.

It is a wonderful game. I played since 2012/13, but I've had new phones, and was happy to start from the beginning. I recommended this game to everyone i know! Now 2021/22, There's a lot of updates. It freezes the game, makes it harder to play and Characters goes missing. I would often have to restart the application. I wonder if this has to do with the 'themes' (to match the occasion. Such as Valentine's or Halloween etc) ... I will keep playing but i am getting annoyed about the slow updates.

I really enjoy this game. It is the only version of the, tile swipe and match type of game that I enjoy. My only problem is having to spend stars on boring tasks that don't let me design anything. Aswell as the task needing to cost more stars instead of 1 as the game progresses. I really enjoy playing the levels and think they are greatly done and I love the design element. But the boring tasks and inflated cost for tasks is what makes me want to stop playing at times. It's still a great game.

Update: have been playing for 2 years. As I said before, it is a match 3 game. But, they have a mini game that comes every once in a while between levels. Those mini games are a 3 step "fix it" scenerio. I enjoy the game. Will continue to play. Not what was advertised in the add. Just another match 3 game, and those are getting boring. I kept it due to the story line.

The RNG system of the levels deliberately makes it impossible to complete. You can try a hundred times and it won't be possible, you will just have to wait for the game to decide "ok, now you can complete this level" and it will make the level a breeze to complete. Some level are designed in a way that if you have boosters active it actually makes it harder or not possible to do the level. They constantly want you to spend and buy coins and offers. Such a negative experience in my opinion.
