gameplay6 positive mentions
monetization20 negative mentions
  • Addictive and fun multiplayer game suitable for groups of up to 8 players, encouraging strategic thinking and social interaction.
  • Low storage requirement and offline playability make it accessible for various devices and situations.
  • Developers have responded to feedback and fixed some bugs, improving overall experience.
  • Serious touch sensitivity and input misalignment issues, especially with the 3D grid view, causing orb placement in unintended cells and frustrating gameplay.
  • Lack of online multiplayer mode and AI/computer opponent, limiting play to local multiplayer and requiring at least two players physically present.
  • Recent updates introduced new bugs, removed the undo feature, and included ads, lowering user satisfaction and degrading the previously smooth experience.

  • monetization

    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    9% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 91% negative mentions

    The addition of ads has been a major point of contention, with many users feeling the game has shifted toward a "cash grab" model that disrupts the experience, especially due to lacking an option to remove or reduce ads. While some find the ads manageable or understandable for revenue, frequent and intrusive ads combined with touch and performance issues have significantly diminished the game's enjoyment compared to earlier ad-free versions.

    • “Great game, with no ads and it's fun playing this game, must download.”
    • “It now looks like a half-baked cash grab game, with bad UI/UX decisions and no thought to what the game used to be.”
    • “They have ruined a perfect game with an update adding advertisements and by making the touches miss almost every time.”
    • “Tooo many ads, and no option to disable them. The app was updated a year ago, the app has become horrible from the good old days.”

  • stability

    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from frequent stability issues, including freezing, unresponsive or inaccurate touch controls, and glitches across various devices. Many users report having to restart the app due to crashes, and there appears to have been little to no recent updates to address these problems. Overall, technical instability significantly hampers the gameplay experience.

    • “Every time after the first time the game doesn't work and freezes with a black screen and the logo on top.”
    • “After one game, the game freezes, and I have to restart the whole app to begin a new game.”
    • “I was really excited to play this game again, unfortunately, the game is really buggy and the dots don't follow where you want to put them; it's really frustrating since that's the whole mechanic of this game.”

    Gameplay is generally praised for its interesting, satisfying, and innovative mechanics, with a minimalist and engaging design.

    • “The idea is to claim the board with your colour group and the mechanics are interesting and satisfying to master.”
    • “Such minimalist theme and simple gameplay.”
    • “I love its mechanics, all those colors, and the virus-like elements make it more fun!”
    • “The new touch controls are unresponsive and make gameplay difficult and inaccurate.”
    • “I was really excited to play this game again, unfortunately the game is really buggy and the dots don't follow where you want to put it, it's really frustrating since that's the whole mechanic of this game :(”
    • “Few days ago after downloading the game again, I tried to check the 3D view gameplay, but after being unable to change the view to 2D, I realized it's permanently in 3D.”

    Users express significant frustration with the game's poor touch responsiveness, reporting that touches often register in incorrect grid spaces, making the game difficult or impossible to play properly. This persistent control issue negatively impacts the overall emotional experience, leading to irritation and dissatisfaction.

    • “Touching on some grids makes the ball move to the box below where I wanted to touch.”
    • “I can't touch the cell I want to touch; instead, I end up touching somewhere else.”
    • “Touch response was very bad. My phone is working great, but in this game, I'm touching one square and it's being placed on another. It's irritating.”

  • graphics

    • “Great graphics!”
    • “Best brain game in the Playstore, good work and the graphics are very good, keep it up.”
    • “The graphics could be improved, but overall the game idea is great; addressing control errors and enhancing graphics would help.”

    • “The graphics of this game are not up to the mark; the low quality makes it difficult to click on a specific grid properly.”

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    The game suffers from optimization issues, particularly with hitbox accuracy, causing frustration when targeting. Performance may also vary depending on the device, leading to a suboptimal experience for some users.

    • “Used to love this game but somehow it doesn't work properly anymore. When it does, the hitbar is weird – I have to press the middle of the box above my target to select it. Not sure if it's my phone or the game's optimization. Leaving 3 stars because of this.”
