Castle Crush-Match 3 12+

This game was fun until the goal of collecting about 60 letters from about 12 active mailboxes which were well imbedded and protected was reached. Up to that point I had spent about six dollars total on the game and was having fun. In my first evening of playing this game I reached about level 57. In this level you use up your free boosters on the couple of moves then it gets expensive from there to complete the level. This happens in other games too. It is up to the player whether to spend money or stop playing. This is not a free game.

This game feels like it is rigged to make consumers buy DLC packages especially in the higher levels. It will generate icon combos within the game that in no way can beat the level without power ups in 25 moves and if you don’t have any power ups because you have lost so many rounds you feel forced to “buy” your win so you can advance in the game. THEN once you break down and purchase a power up package suddenly the game will generate all kinds of great icon combos and bonuses etc. after playing for a while it will shift and force you to use up ALL of the power ups and points once again and generate poor combos so the cycle continues buy more points or power ups or continue to fail.

Additionally the app suspiciously CRASHES without fail every time I achieve a red light ball (which takes 10 levels beaten to get). When I reboot the app I no longer have a light ball. I have reported this multiple times to the developers and they have “compensated” with 1000 bonus points one time and more recently 500 bonus points but do not actually address the issue because it literally just happened again which is why I decided to write a review.

The game is fun and I enjoy it as a mindless pass time activity but it is definitely rigged and not in your favor.

I love the game and the tournaments, but if the team feels you didn’t help enough they can kick you out! Then trying to get help from the customer service that doesn’t help you get back the points you won even though it says ones who contributed gets the points. They say they leave the kicking out is up to the team which is not fair because it counter acts of the game that says you do get the points if you help. I was in a game that I helped in and we were at the top 6,000 points and right before the game ended they kicked me out. Well that didn’t matter to their customer service I felt cheated and I felt it’s because the TEAMS HELP THEM Weed out the non buyers and possibly they help them keep the buyers who make them rich!!! We just get points only if the team lets you how fun is that? It’s not like this company is giving the team’s money just POINTS wow, they get rich and we just get points and then they make it too difficult to win so you use them up quickly so what was all the hype to win the tournament for points DAH!!!
