    185 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with players expressing frustration over the excessive number of ads that interrupt gameplay. Many users noted that even after purchasing an ad removal option, they still encountered ads, particularly for unlocking items and features, which detracted significantly from their overall enjoyment. While some acknowledged that ads are typical for free games, the frequency and intrusiveness of the ads in this game were deemed excessive, leading to a diminished gaming experience.

    • “Finished in roughly 8 hours on and off playing throughout the day with no ads (watching ads to get epics and tiles as needed).”
    • “Paid $3 for no ads.”
    • “I paid $3 for no ads.”
    • “The game is surprisingly fun and it could be relaxing if it wasn't for the ridiculous amount of ads.”
    • “I watched a lot of ads to complete quicker.”
    • “The whole game is built on needing to watch ads to proceed further into it.”
  • gameplay
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally enjoyable and smooth, with a fun unpacking mechanic and appealing aesthetics, though some users find the UI lacking. While ads do not interrupt the core gameplay, their presence during transitions can disrupt the flow, and the option to remove ads does not grant additional rewards, which some players find disappointing. Overall, the game offers a unique concept and engaging mechanics, despite some criticisms regarding its depth and ad management.

    • “The UI looks a bit cheap, but gameplay is surprisingly smooth for all the moving parts.”
    • “The concept is cool, the difficulty is nice, and the mechanics of the game are also cool.”
    • “Other than that, the gameplay is good.”
    • “They pop up during gameplay or in between boxes, which stops the pace a lot.”
    • “Aesthetically pleasing and fun, but if I'm paying to remove ads, then I expect all aspects of the game to have no ads, not just the basic gameplay.”
    • “Weak gameplay and can't even call it a puzzle game.”
  • stability
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is a significant issue, with frequent crashes, freezes, and glitches that disrupt gameplay and cause loss of progress. Users report problems with ads not closing properly and settings reverting unexpectedly, leading to a frustrating experience. While some players enjoy the gameplay, the overall consensus highlights that the technical issues severely detract from the enjoyment.

    • “Awesome flow, no glitches, just very addictive.”
    • “The game runs smoothly without any crashes, making for a seamless experience.”
    • “I appreciate how stable the gameplay is; it allows me to focus on strategy without interruptions.”
    • “First few levels played great, then the ads come; half the time the game crashes or freezes and you lose your progress. The other half of the time you can't click the ad off after watching (even the non-reward ads), so you have to restart the game.”
    • “Awesome concept, but crashes and buggy settings (haptics kept turning back on randomly mid-level, and when settings aren't available) really killed this one.”
    • “Constantly freezes and I have to reload.”
  • graphics
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally considered mediocre, with some users finding them aesthetically pleasing but lacking depth, which may hinder gameplay at higher levels. While the forced ads are less intrusive than in other games, they can disrupt the experience, especially for players who pay to remove them. Overall, the visual quality is seen as a mixed bag, impacting the overall enjoyment of the game.

    • “Really enjoyed the idea and the graphics.”
    • “Aesthetically pleasing and fun.”
    • “Graphics are okay.”
    • “The number of forced ads isn't too bad compared to other games with similar graphics and gameplay, but the problem I run into is that the forced ads make me have to reload the game because I get stuck in them.”
  • grinding
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious, particularly when upgrading rooms after placing objects, and many express frustration with the frequent ads that interrupt gameplay.

    • “You'll find yourself in a tedious home stretch to finish upgrading the rooms after you've gotten all the objects put in them.”
    • “Frequent ads get very tedious.”
  • story
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players expressing disappointment that it did not match the promotional material, particularly regarding the absence of a narrative involving a grandmother and a mansion. While some found the game enjoyable and entertaining, they felt it lacked depth and excitement, suggesting that a more engaging storyline could enhance the overall experience.

    • “It was not like the ad, and there was no story about my grandma leaving me in a mansion. It was also boring, and there were no shelves like in the ad. Plus, it was not entertaining at all. It is a good game, but make it more fun and add a story like in the ad. The ad was super cool, but again, make it more fun, just a little bit. The game was actually fun, and I like this game a bit, but it was a little bit entertaining, so yeah.”
  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the humor in the game to be entertaining and engaging, with one reviewer highlighting its comedic appeal as a key reason for downloading it after seeing a funny YouTube short. Overall, the humor is described as effective and enjoyable.

    • “Absolutely brain dead, downloaded because of the funny YouTube short.”
    • “It is very funny.”
  • music
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game features repetitive riffs that play continuously, which can become monotonous for players, and unfortunately, there is no option to turn it off even when the game's sound settings are adjusted.

    • “The music consists of the same three riffs that play over and over incessantly, and there's no way to turn it off, even if you mute the game.”
    • “The repetitive nature of the soundtrack makes it unbearable after a short time, and it feels like there's no variety at all.”
    • “I found the music to be incredibly annoying, as it loops endlessly without any option to change or disable it.”
