Review summary

Most reviews praise the puzzle design and relaxing feel, plus the breadth of content. However, the game is widely criticized for intrusive, persistent ads, ad-free purchases not always sticking, progression and rewards being altered after updates, data loss on devices, and various glitches affecting performance and battery life.

Pros

Engaging and enjoyable puzzle gameplay that passes the time.
Calming, relaxing experience that can help with stress and anxiety.
Large amount of content and many levels, with ongoing updates and new scenes.
Long-term appeal; players report playing for years and returning.

Cons

Excessive, intrusive ads: long durations, frequent interruptions, ad loading issues, and ads that are hard to exit.
Paid ad-free purchases not honored and restore purchases sometimes fail.
Progression problems after updates: levels becoming harder or requiring paid tools, rewards changes, and some levels becoming unwinnable.
Data loss on device changes or after updates (progress being erased).
Glitches and performance issues, including battery drain and occasional bugs (affecting play quality).

2026-08-19	Be*****	The game itself is amazing. It’s colorful, the sounds are great and the game is addictive. It requires some strategy and lots of luck. The problem isn’t even the constant offer to let you buy your way through the game or that the game is designed to get to the point where you might need extra help on each level and it’s easier to purchase than to earn the coins. The problem is, once they have you hooked, the ads start coming between each play and you just can’t get out of them. If you click ANYWHERE, you find yourself leaving the game and on some website or trapped in another game. Theres only one button and it says “Get me”. If you try to click on the small circle at the bottom, you still clicked “get me. It gave me a button that said “not interested”on one of them, so I tried that with the Bradford ad. Not only did the “not interested” button take me to the site, every single ad, after that, was for Bradford. I had to delete the game. I was having to close the game and re-open it…the ads want you to buy and they don’t take no for an answer. It got old really fast. The game is great, the in purchase is pretty typical and annoying, but the ads are a deal breaker. Just offer an upgrade price for no ads…what a shame to ruin the game with excessive, ridiculous ads.

2026-08-18	LA*****	This ad is 4 plus but runs ads that promote gambling and other things that are not appropriate for children as part of their scam to force you to pay

2026-08-16	mi*****	This game is a lot of fun and relaxing at first, but it makes you “lose” in order to make you watch ads or spend money for coins the further you progress. Can’t enjoy it anymore without having to watch ads every few moves. Fun for a little, now deleting.

2026-08-16	Cu*****	The fact that there are not only forced ads, but the fact that I have to watch an ad at the end of every level or you won’t give me the coins I earned is ridiculous and unfair. It is also incredibly obnoxious that I can’t even press the play button without first having to close out of five or more forced pop up ‘offers’ trying to get me to spend real money. I am not opposed to spending money on games that I enjoy but I absolutely loathe being forced to pay in order to even attempt to enjoy the game.

2026-08-14	Lb*****	The game would be better if it would stop messing up. You try to make it move around, but it will only zoom in and out. Then when it does move it spins too far and then it’s back to zooming in and out again.

2026-08-13	to*****	Of the many screw sort games I’ve tried, this has run the best, and I kept playing even though I hate the creepy anthropomorphized peg figures. But now I’m starting to notice repeated imagery with some minor tweaks and I’m getting bored. If it were just houses or whatnot I wouldn’t be annoyed, but the most bizarre things are running on repeat, like the enthroned chess piece with a tongue as a footrest. Not sure how much longer I’ll play before deleting.

2026-08-13	Fa*****	Really fun game but the constant lengthy ads is extremely annoying and there is not a “no ads”purchase option.

2026-08-13	Gr*****	Games are supposed to be fun. This one isn’t. You blast through about 20 levels until it suddenly becomes too hard to progress without giving them money. Just play the only fun level as an ad in other games.

2026-08-11	Sa*****	I used to play this game as a way to wind down in the evenings, but they rolled out a mandatory update that COMPLETELY changed the game and caused me to immediately uninstall. It used to be very satisfying to tap the screws and quickly sort them into their colored boxes. The screws moved quickly with no delay or lag. Now the screws unwind really slow, and waiting on the animation to finish unscrewing and going into the box totally kills it for me. It’s slow and clunky and not fun. I immediately uninstalled after the update. I used to spend a couple of hours a day playing but unfortunately, it’s no longer the game for me.
