Let me just start off by saying I never play phone games.. but this game man. Whew. I’ve had it for about a year now I believe, I’m on level 2252 and I’m just as addicted to it as I was when I first downloaded it. I play it whenever I’m at work or home or even out with friends. I’ll sneak levels in when ever I can. I promise you I’m not a bot lol. I’m a 22 year old who is addicted to this game. Something about it is just great. It’s simple and collecting cards is great cause when you get a full set it gives you a bunch of stuff. My only gripe is there is so much adds. (Turn off data for it ;)) I would pay for the vip but I think it’s kind of silly to pay weekly. I’d easily pay $15-$20 one time payment so I don’t have to pay weekly for it weekly. To put it into perspective my phone is cracked and I’m too afraid to replace it cause I’m already so far in this game. I wish I was kidding. Thank you to the devs. Seriously y’all are great. Y’all should make some merch id definitely pick some up. From boring dates, to getting stuck watching movies I don’t like, too sitting on the toliet, or just hiding in the work truck you guys have brought me endless hours of enjoyment. Thank you guys from the bottom of my heart. Seriously this turned out to be a love letter more than a review. Anyway no one is probably going to read this so bill gates is putting micro chips in the vaccines for covid-19!!!This is going to be fun rereading this when I stumble apon this in a year or so when I forget I did this and want to write a review. Love, jwat

I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence but it seems the game has gotten much harder after the latest couple of updates. I’m stuck on level 1582, so I decided to update the app to see if it was a bug. No luck with 1582 after the update so I tried dozens of older levels and they’re also much more difficult than they used to be. Many of the levels leading up to 1582 (like in the 1570s) were also extremely hard and not very fun. I had to buy several power-ups/extra moves to get through the last 10 or so levels, when normally I could get through the levels in a few tries without much need for power-ups (unless I really wanted to get a level over with). Also this is a bit nitpicky but it’s annoying that the game asks if you’re sure you want to restart a level because you’ll lose progress. The game used to seem like it ran smoother before it asked that every time. Also almost every time I enter a level, even if it’s one I’ve completed before, the game tells me about the special kinds of bubbles in the level (like ice bubbles or the bubbles that turn to stone). It’s a bit annoying that this info pops up almost every time I play a level. But mostly it’s a shame that I can’t move forward in the game anymore. This is my favorite Bubble Shooter app and I’ve been looking at other ones since this one has become too difficult to be fun (1582, for example, is so full of stone bubbles that fireballs and bombs aren’t even really effective).

I have played this game for many years. It has overall gotten better as time goes on. My first complaint is those stupid packs of cards. “Tap to open”, “tap to continue”, over and over. I do not find that I need anything I “earn” from the collections. I have no idea what I am supposed to do with the coins. The newer “weapons” are nice - when I first started playing, there were only bombs and fireballs. My second complaint is that if I earn a bomb or fireball by dropping lots of bubbles, and don’t use it in that level, it goes away. Bombs and fireballs seem to appear one at a time at intervals, but ones earned by hitting a particular bubble go away if not used in that level. I am now at Level 2013. An additional annoyance has appeared. It has only happened a few times, but they have been critical shots: there are bubbles which open and close, alternating with each shot. A few times, I have carefully set up my shots so that I can hit a group of bubbles when they are open. I line up the big shot, release my bubble, and just as it hits, the bubbles close. This has caused me to fail at least three times in the last 10 or 12 levels. Extremely irritating!

I have read similar comments regarding feeling pushed to purchase additional coins to get past a level. This seems to occur more often after you have purchased prior coins for levels. I also noticed you can be down two colors to almost pass a difficult level and may need one specific color but the selection will give you a color that is buried underneath the color you need. That color will be just (one ) while all of the surrounding colors are the obvious same. This is more prevalent when the option to watch a video is available for additional shots to be added. Sometimes you will have two chances to watch a video or maybe one but each time it comes back with ball colors you don't need. Almost like intentionally sabotaging your chances of beating a level without making a purchase for extra balls to shoot. When that happens you will be so frustrated you will end up purchasing more balls. I have had this game downloaded and played for YEARS. Since I have deleted the app I don't recall the level I reached but it was pretty high since it has been over 6 yrs or more. I have taken breaks from it because of this push. Each time I want to keep playing and give it another try but I have reached my latest and last day of being so frustrated. I am finally deleting it because its not worth the aggravation. These type of games are to relax not give anxiety and frustrate.
