Update: I still love the game, but there are some things they really need to change. 1) 900 coins for just 5 more moves??? Really??? That amount is absolutely ridiculous!!! You run out of coins before you know it and have to buy more to continue. And to top that off, the most coins you win per level is maybe 80 something if you’re lucky. They go by the number of moves you have left instead of how well you did on the level. So to spend 900 coins for 5 more moves and only earn 50 coins for that level, you are not earning nearly enough to make up for the 900. It’s just not right. It’s a rip off. 2) The characters really need more outfits!! It gets old seeing them in the same thing all the time. For ex: Whitney! Omg, please make her some outfits! Holly needs more also, even though she is my least favorite character, lol. Cannot stand her! And Regina needs more also. And lastly 3) the packages or specials need to be cheaper. I feel like the developers are just money hungry and don’t really care about their customers or players. I do love the storyline for the most part, and it’s a fun game, but to continue the game, it’s getting way too expensive. So I may delete it if the money factor doesn’t change. Hopefully they read their reviews because they sure don’t listen if you email them directly. Good luck if you play the game! Like I said, it’s a lot of fun, but will cost you lots of money too. Love this game and storyline! So much fun!!

I downloaded this game thinking it would be like all the others and I would get bored and delete it. This is not the case at all! I love that there is a storyline and block game with some little mini games here and there. I will say the advertisement for the mini games, they were there at the beginning and they just disappeared? The ones that pretty much draw you in to play and are pictured when you read about the app. Other than that I really love it and have been playing for a few years now, I haven’t found a game that I loved like that since candy crush! If you like the typical block games and renovation but also like to have a storyline this is the game for you! Also what I really love is the fact that you don’t have to wait hours for lives to build up, then you play for ten minutes, and the cycle continues (with most other free games) they did pretty well with making lives more available with unlimited lives for time periods or the option to send or request lives from other players. I don’t have to spend money on this game at all to enjoy it and proceed through the levels. I’ve only ever spent a few dollars to get more rewards for the seasonal subscription which was actually worth it to me! Other than the few small things I’ve mentioned it’s a really fun game! I don’t regret downloading this one at all! If your in the fence just do it! I promise it will be worth it 😄

I’m not an avid game player, but I find this one semi addictive yet fun and a relaxing break when I need one. Really has helped during this stay at home year of 2020. Probably one of the positives among all the negatives! I love the combination of the puzzles as well as getting to remodel the property. Love the graphics and storyline. Had to reinstall because of problems. Could be my older iPad mini though. Often it got to where it would crash or in the end just stayed on the middle of one task with the characters moving but in a constant loop. That was one of the levels over 2300, but love it enough to try and start over. —Update—Finally gave up using my iPad mini for this game. Was either going in extreme slo-mo or crashing after every puzzle. Sometimes, crashing during a task(losing stars) or after puzzle completion but before awarding star.(also losing star). Was really getting frustrating. One thing I hate is that with all the problems, the timer continues to tick off your time even when you are having to wait for it to reload after crashing, which in many cases was taking as much as a half minute before everything was back to where you could start again. Got a new iPhone for the early Christmas and downloaded it on there. Seems to work ok so far. Time will tell.

This game is truly one of my favorites to play. The game in the beginning is great, but the further in levels you get, the harder the levels become to beat, especially after you’ve finished the main story. In my experience with the game, if I’m playing a level that takes me more than 3 times to pass, the level is literally unplayable. I find myself closing the game, coming back to it a few hours later and then magically the level is super easy and I win in one try. It’s very frustrating and make me want to play the game less and less. Also, I’ve noticed there are “normal” levels that are a lot harder than the actual “hard” level. Again, this is frustrating and is enjoyable. I would suggest that the game offers 2 stars for every level that is labeled “hard”. Kind of odd that I get the same reward for a hard level that I would a normal one. Lastly it should be a choice to use power ups that are given by Philip. I have a had so many streaks ruined because I had to use the power ups and ironically something that is meant to be helpful, actually does the complete opposite. Other than that, I still continue to play the game because I love the story and I love the satisfaction of picking things for the garden and other parts to the game. Also would like to mention that, though I love the game, this is the third time for me coming back to it after taking a break because of how frustrating/enjoyable the game can be.
