The graphics in the game are widely praised for their beauty and realism, enhancing the overall experience alongside engaging storylines and puzzles. However, some users report performance issues, such as lag and glitches, particularly on less powerful devices, which can detract from the gameplay. Overall, while the visuals are a highlight, technical improvements are needed for a smoother experience.
- “The game has great graphics, puzzles, and storylines.”
- “The storylines and graphics are exceptional and the game is fun.”
- “Really good game, graphics are brilliant and the gameplay is really interesting, loads of different episodes to play which keeps you playing for a long time.”
- “However, the game does glitch sometimes due to high-quality graphics; sometimes voices don't even work, but that's probably because of my device.”
- “You guys really need to make an option in your game to either disable the moving graphics so users with not-so-up-to-date tablets can play the game too.”
- “When it comes to larger phones like the Pixel 6, the resolution/image is stretched and this ruins the graphics.”
monetization

The monetization model of the game is generally well-received, with players appreciating the absence of forced ads and the option to earn in-game currency through watching ads. However, many users express frustration over the limited ways to earn essential resources like rubies and coins, often feeling that the rewards for watching ads are insufficient. While optional in-app purchases exist, players feel that the game could benefit from more generous earning opportunities to enhance the overall experience.
- “Optional in-game purchases but not needed to thoroughly enjoy and complete the games.”
- “There's no ads every 30 seconds, you don't have to make purchases to be able to finish the games and there's no energy bar so you can play to your heart's content.”
- “No ads (unless you want a cheeky bonus hint).”
- “I don't feel it's fair because I have been stuck on one single puzzle game for the past 3 days since I first downloaded this game. There are not enough rubies or ways to earn them while being stuck for days. I feel there should be other ways to earn rubies while playing this game. I have four rubies and have had those same four rubies for the past 3 days, and I have watched the reward for ads video, and all they give is one coin. There should be other ways of earning rubies for their importance.”
- “There's no way to watch enough ads to gain enough coins to get hints.”
- “Changing the stars and hearts and requiring energy now is a blatant cash grab.”
