Very frustrated with the ads! I have spent at least 20 minutes trying to get rid of Vita Majong this morning. I even restarted my computer. Most ads stop after a couple of clicks. But lately the ads are longer and much harder to get rid of. Any of those I would never try or buy.

The ads have increased and that makes me have to reduce by one star. There’s an ad after every puzzle now. I liked it better when this wasn’t the case. I’ve had this game on my phone longer than any other and I truly enjoy playing it. I just hope it doesn’t become so overrun with ads that I can’t enjoy it anymore because it really is a fun time passer.

I’ve played this games daily for years and generally enjoy the game and the various puzzle styles. I’ve wanted to go add free but it costs much more than other games I’ve payed for. I also miss getting books at the end of quests. Just getting some pages for a collection that have nothing to do with the theme of the quest makes them pointless to do.

New comment: I understand the ads sustain and increase your profits, but every one needs a quick out for two reasons: one, many of the apps we may already have which makes watching them both tedious and annoying. Two, we may be totally uninterested in the product which interferes with moving ahead with your game. My wife and I compete against each other on the regular game; I am eighty and she is in her seventies. We are giving up a year of our lives to endure the ads which have clearly increased in number. Older comment: My comment of three years ago about the ads still holds true but, as one might expect, they are longer (on average), and often take three or more steps to exit and paying for no ads is not worth it. The twenty sets of regular games vary in both quality and ease. That said, some have the most bizarre, unheard-of “facts” imaginable. There is likely no one living on earth that has heard of some of them and that includes the set developer who has likely forgotten some of the most strange ones by now. The upside is that the games do, at times, make one think. I doubt that it could be clinically proven that they are good for one’s brain, but they fill idle time. I add that I coached a high school academic team for over thirty years, and Cody Cross is not going to match the intellectual “trivia” one might expect to encounter.

Only one new game per lmonth. I have used all the tokens to play the side games and to purchase more is expensive. You have to use tokens to play everything but the one monthly updated game. I already pay a pretty hefty monthly fee and don’t feel it’s worth it. I’m most likely going to cancel my subscription. I don’t know why this is advertised as free - it most definitely is not! It’s very ad heavy with the paid subscription.

I don't frequently enjoy crossword puzzle games, because they are often packed full of questions about TV shows, movies, or sports, none of which are particularly relevant to me. This game has been so refreshing because, while it does have the occasional entertainment industry question, it features very diverse prompts! World history, geography, zoology, general vocabulary... it has been so wonderful to have such variety! I'm delighted when I know the answer to a prompt, especially when I didn't even realize I knew anything about the subject! If I don't know an answer, googling it up is very simple, or I can simply use a hint. Speaking of hints, I'd like to mention how I absolutely LOVE that if we watch an advertisement, we get rewarded for it. And viewing the advertisements is voluntary, without having to buy anything! I have not come across any other game with that feature, and I cannot begin to express how much I wish every game implemented it! The only thing that might be nice (and it almost feels weird to say it!) but I wouldn't mind more variety in the advertisements. I have no problem watching them, since I get a free hint (or two, or three) when I do, but seeing the same advertisement 15 times in a row gets a little monotonous, haha. Honestly though, if repetitive (but voluntary!) advertisements are my only gripe about a game, you have a ridiculously great app in your hands. Thank you for such a great game and keep coming up with those fantastically diverse prompts!
