This used to be a fantastic puzzle app. A wide selection of puzzles with a wide range of difficulty and slick presentation. And then at some point, they took the "number of ads" dial and cranked it all the way up. Now you get *at least* one ad for *every* puzzle you solve. When some of these puzzles are "tutorial" style puzzles that take no more than a few seconds to solve, it makes the game truly unbearable to try to play.
I've had this app for several months and have no plan on getting rid of it. Beautiful graphics, extremely smooth animations, an overall attractive app. The difficulty scales perfectly in my opinion. I don't remember how bad the ads were because I paid $2.99 to get rid of them, but I'm seeing in other reviews that they are terrible. On behalf of them, I'm reducing it to 3 stars. I love the app, but not everyone wants to spend money on it like I did.
Great game collection where many can find a type of puzzle they like. There's no timer, which is great, and with the levels, you win inspirational quotes - very cool! One complaint: I get that it's free, but even considering that, the ads are too long and too frequent. I know someone has to make money, that's fine, just, maybe take it down a notch and I'd be inclined to play even more.
I had this app some time back and thoroughly enjoyed it. I recently reloaded it. Now it's one of the most frustrating stressful apps I've experienced due to the menacing adds that appear before even finishing a puzzle and impossible to turn off. Don't bother with it if you want a relaxing time😨
There is an ad. after. every. single. level. Some of them non-skippable. It just ruins what is otherwise a well-designed game. I get needing ad revenue, but this is overkill. Truly. Compromising user-experience over your revenue is so counter-productive.
I love this game and the puzzles are fun but challenging. Biggest criticism is latest update forced an ad after every single puzzle. Makes me want to play less, fortunately I just turn off my wifi to stop them. Such a shame because I recommended this game to friends and one uninstalled within 5 minutes because of the ads, the other turned wifi off like I now have to. Kind of ruined, honest opinion.
This is a well designed game and I really like it. But. The ads have gotten so bad. There are at least 30 seconds of ad after every level. I have pretty much stopped playing this except when it has been long enough that I forget about the ads. I went today to play and even looked for if they have like a $3 to $5 paid option or something. But alas, no luck and back to not playing this again.
This would be a good game, but there is an obnoxious amount of ads. If there was one after every two or three levels you beat instead of every single level, it would be much more enjoyable to play.
Ads after EVERY SINGLE level. Absolutely ridiculous. Uninstalling until they fix this. If they're that hard up for money they can get it from someone else.
It's OK when it works, but now I'm locked out after age verification check that I dismissed. No way to adjust. Oh, and randomly was adding adverts, even on PlayPass.
I really wanna like this game. The game itself is perfectly serviceable on its own, but I end up spending more time watching ads than actually solving puzzles. Now I normally don't mind seeing ads in free games. After all, they've gotta make money somehow, but this game has an absolutely excessive amount of them.
Wonderful game. Too many ads. I get that ads are a necessary evil, but for the love of God, stop showing the Hero Wars ads. They are unskippable and unable to be closed out if you just let it play through. You have to completely exit the game, and by that time I'm turned off of opening the game again.
Love this app! The amount of game variety is great, perfect for passing the time. (Full disclosure though, I have pass app so I don't experience any ads.)
This is actually a really fun game and perfect for killing time and unwinding. I like the variety of different puzzles although I must admit some are very easy but hopefully will start to get more challenging as the games progress.
Pretty addictive puzzle game. Playing it with play pass, so I'm not sure about adds or monetization. I'd pay a few bucks for the game, it has hours and hours of puzzles of different types to complete.
Awful. Used to love this app, now it's completely unplayable with the amount of ads. You get an ad after each round, and some rounds only take a few seconds. This is ridiculous.
It says no ads with Play Pass... The first thing I have even before I could play 1 game was an ad !!!! So unless that change, that game will be uninstalled because there is other like that without so many ads EDIT (3/09/22) : Play Pass now work perfectly; no ads at all!! So, I can say that this game is awesome 👌!
Fun game for everyone! Some challenges are really easy, others are difficult. I like that the puzzles continuously switch. I don't get bored as easily, and it keeps me engaged.
An ad after every level. The levels are never very long.
The puzzles are good but the ads are insufferable.There are lots of banner ads and a video ad after every single level.
I used play this game all the time but have decided to not play anymore because the adds have been too much. There are adds after every level and most if not all last 30 seconds
Was having fun with the game, specially daily challenges, but got lock out and when I tried to contact customer support i got no response unfortunately.
Really enjoyed this app. Lots of puzzles and types of puzzles, and there would be an ad after every 5th - 10th puzzle. But now there's an ad after every completed puzzle. No longer enjoyable to play.
Nice combination of all the familiar puzzle games, you can do puzzles depth first, working through all the puzzles in a category, or do the breadth first option where the app gives you a selection of games from each category. Luminosity was the first of these sorts of "Ability bubble tests " given to primary students in k-8 inthe US that educators hate and Education Ministers love. The interface is OK, but sometimes does not adapt correctly to the new Samsung fold unfolded into tablet mode
Way too many ads. An ad after every single puzzle (most of which only take a few seconds to solve) is absolutely unacceptable. The game itself is well designed amd has an intuitive layout, but none of that matters in the slightest, if you won't even make it far enough into the game to notice that because of the ads.
You can't play but 1 round and then a dang ad and it is everytime you play a round you get a 30 sec ad or whatever. I'm deleting it
Lots of great puzzle types, the input detection can be very frustrating at times though, especially in the math game. Really good over all just hope they fix that
The puzzles are good, but the UI is brutal for sliding the pieces into their slots. For instance, in the math game sliding the numbers to their positions is infuriating. It takes about 15 tries sometimes. You'd think they'd click into place like any other app, but they don't. Even if I slowly slide it over and place it EXACTLY over top.
An interesting thinking puzzle game that makes you think in different ways and let's you challenge the ways you see things and perspectives. I enjoy playing to help clear my mind and think of new possibilities to solving old problems. Failing is part of life and in this game you might fail a puzzle a few times but realizing trying new possibilities is what it is all about shows you outside the box thinking is what it really what it is all about!
I used to love playing this all the time. There's a lot of different types of puzzles to choose from, but now they've made it so you're just suffocated with ads. It always shows 2 different ads on the screen that take up half of it which is bad as it is, but then after EVERY SINGLE LEVEL there's ANOTHER AD. It's become unplayable and I don't intend to play again until they relax on the ads.
