“I found the game to be okay, but I couldn't engage much with the gameplay due to its slow pace, which makes the game unappealing.”
“There are pop-ups during gameplay that mess up attempts to spin or solve puzzles.”

The game suffers from significant stability issues, with frequent freezes and glitches that disrupt gameplay, particularly when attempting to use wild cards or watch ads. Players report losing progress and money due to these interruptions, leading to frustration and a diminished overall experience.
“It's a fun game, but every time I try to use a wild card or watch a video to get one, it freezes and won't let me click on anything besides the home button, which makes me start a whole new game.”
“It's okay, I was quite enjoying it until one advert kept appearing and froze the game, causing me to lose the money from all rounds, usually when I get over £1000. I have to stop and restart the game, and I'm bored with having to do that now.”
“I press play, and the game closes. I press to put my name, and the game stops, freezing with glitches.”

The music aspect of the game features a puzzle centered around identifying a song and artist, specifically highlighting "Gangsta's Paradise" by Coolio. However, players have expressed frustration regarding the lack of punctuation options in the letter selection, which complicates the puzzle-solving experience.
“I knew the answer to that song and singer puzzle just now; I've got the CD right in front of me. It was 'Gangsta's Paradise' by Coolio. At the end of 'Gangsta's', there is a weather-related letter in the alphabet. Finally, when they show you letters to pick from, they don't give you any commas or periods to choose from, so where did that comma come from?”
“One of the puzzles was a song and the artist.”

At the end of 'Gangsta's', there is a weather every letter in the alphabet. Finally, when they're showing you letters to pick from, they don't give you any commas or periods or anything like that to choose from, so where the hell did that comma come from?”
