Overall, users express a strong desire for the inclusion of background music and sound effects in the game, as the current lack of audio options detracts from the experience. Many players find the mandatory ads disruptive, as they interrupt any music or podcasts they are listening to, leading to frustration. Suggestions for improvement include adding calming music, sound effects, and a toggle option to enhance gameplay without interference from ads.
“Wouldn't change a thing about it, except to perhaps add soothing music.”
“Fun relaxing, calming needs good soft music to meditate and play genius.”
“Very soothing game...needs a little background music though.”
“This is a nice cathartic game but there's a mandatory ad after every level that drowns out whatever music or podcast I'm listening to and doesn't hand the audio focus back over, so I have to switch out of the app every single time to restart my audio, and it is driving me mad.”
“Very addictive game I'm enjoying the game, but it gets boring because there is no music or sound effects. Plus, it needs a challenge mode where you need to hit the required amount of blocks to clear the level.”
“You app developers might as well not bother to include music or sounds because ads that cannot be silenced force users to turn off their device's audio entirely.”

“This is a very fun game now and then. Definitely your first shots, but I am holding on to this game hoping they add missions or skill games, etc. Upgrades, anything at the moment just plain game but fun, and I will come back and give higher than 3 stars if it gets anything mentioned above.”
“They seem mandatory if you want to refresh the mission objectives... otherwise, I'd rate 4-5 stars.”
“I used to like this game, before they bloated it with daily missions and other prompts popping up between each level.”
“No change in play, quests are the same.”
“Kind of makes completing that part of the mission impossible, and without the missions the game is pointless.”
