    1,545 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with users expressing frustration over the excessive number of ads, many of which are intrusive and unskippable. Players report being misled by advertisements claiming the game is ad-free, only to encounter frequent ads after just a few levels. Additionally, the pressure to make in-game purchases for ad removal or to progress further exacerbates the dissatisfaction, leading many to label the game as a cash grab rather than a genuine gaming experience.

    • “It's a timeless classic and fun for all ages, there's thankfully no ads and you can play as long as you want.”
    • “Fun and no ads.”
    • “No ads is a definite plus!!!”
    • “The game has constant popups for in-game purchases from the moment you open the game that are frustrating and annoying.”
    • “I understand using ads to generate income, but when your game is based on levels that take less than 30 seconds to pass and every second level = at least one 30-second ad with 2-3 taps to end it, you're wasting my time and I'm deleting you every time.”
    • “The ads are ridiculous, but that's a given for a game like this.”
  • graphics
    47 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players appreciating the retro and simplistic design, while others criticize them as outdated and misleading compared to promotional materials. Many users find the graphics enjoyable and fitting for the gameplay, but there are frequent mentions of a disconnect between the advertised visuals and the actual in-game graphics. Overall, while some players enjoy the quirky appeal of the graphics, others feel they lack depth and quality.

    • “But now the graphics are awesome and easier on the eyes.”
    • “Loving this easy game so far... simple all you do is place the target where you want it to go and knock all the bricks out.. graphics are cool... and smooth game boards.”
    • “Great graphics and ball control movements.”
    • “Advertised a completely different graphic.”
    • “Surely with such simple graphics it should be better optimized.”

  • stability
    47 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with many reporting frequent glitches, crashes, and freezing issues that disrupt gameplay and cause loss of progress.

Overall, the game is seen as entertaining but plagued by technical problems that hinder the experience.

    • “I've had no glitches of any sort, it downloaded and installed really fast and it loads even faster than most of the games I have.”
    • “Well, this is a cool game I got to say for what it is, and what it is is a mind game. If you really get into it, you can really kind of get into the numbers of it. To be honest with you, I think it's pretty cool for what it is and no glitches, no problems. There wasn't a hiccup in the whole thing so far.”
    • “Challenging with no glitches!!!!”
    • “Transferred the account over to my new one and the app keeps glitching and sending me back to level 0 and freezes. When I reinstall it, it resets to level 23.”

Many users express frustration over a persistent music loop that plays when the game is open, even when sound settings are muted. Overall, the interference from ads has detracted from the gaming experience, leading to a negative reception regarding the music functionality.

    • “This is a good game for when you are on a long car trip; put on some music and boom.”
