  • graphics
    46 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game receive mixed reviews, with many users criticizing their quality and realism, describing them as simplistic, cartoonish, and often unattractive. While some players appreciate the overall aesthetic and find the graphics enjoyable, a significant number express disappointment over limited design options and poor texture quality. Overall, the game is often compared unfavorably to similar titles, particularly in terms of visual appeal and variety.

    • “This game is wonderful with beautiful graphics!”
    • “Enjoyable engaging game with excellent realistic graphics.”
    • “I love playing this game and I think the graphics are excellent.”
    • “The graphics are hard to deal with, and the choice dashboard is unmanageable as it moves up and down on its own and is difficult to manipulate.”
    • “The graphics are unsophisticated and quite uninspired.”
    • “The graphics, color choices, and fabrics really need to be updated to look less like a cartoon and more realistic.”
  • monetization
    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game is generally well-received, with many players appreciating the absence of intrusive ads and the option to play without spending money. However, concerns arise regarding the slow release of new content, the high cost of in-game purchases, and issues with receiving purchased items, leading to frustration among some users. While the game offers enjoyable gameplay and a variety of materials, the balance between free play and monetization could be improved to enhance the overall experience.

    • “No ads, and you don't have to spend money if you don't want to; you still have great options.”
    • “Fun, no ads, and there is enough inventory to use and gain from wins without having to spend actual money.”
    • “No ads, just in-app purchases and a lot of choice of materials that get unlocked with time, the more victories you get.”
    • “In-app purchases are okay-ish; however, I'm afraid to make any on a game that has been neglected.”
    • “On level 10, I am still limited to the same 3 unlocked materials. If I need red, then it simply isn't unlocked yet, and burning through cash and gold is way too fast compared to how difficult it is to earn some. For example, 1 new print is 1500 gold, but watching an ad only gives you 50 gold—do you want me to watch 300 ads? Micro-purchases are pushed too much.”
    • “Fun game, but it takes so long to gather diamonds to purchase decor items, only to then receive random items and duplications of items already owned. If you do not want to spend actual money on in-game purchases, you will not enjoy this game for long.”
  • stability
    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The stability of the game has been widely criticized, with users reporting frequent glitches, freezes, and crashes that significantly hinder gameplay.

    • “The game glitches when you try to scroll through inventory; it slows down considerably, and the game crashes quite often. In order to do all my rooms, I have to exit out of the game, clear the cache, and force stop it all the time.”
    • “It gets stuck on the 'start' button page, shows a 'loading' bar, then freezes and pops up with a 'retry' button page that doesn't work.”
  • gameplay
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally praised for its smoothness and direct design approach, making it accessible for players.
