Game itself is 5 stars, but some ad content is offensive

This is actually the best of nine such games I have tried over the years. It’s clean, simple, and fast. Short ads play between games about 50 percent of the time, but most such ads are short, clean, and shut down promptly when I click the “x” in the upper right hand corner.
Nonetheless, I plan to uninstall in a few days. Why? Several ads with highly sexualized pictures are particularly offensive. These ads refuse to shut down when I click the “x”. Instead, the “x” brings up purchase pages. I have waited as long as 90 seconds to try the “x” a second time. Even then, I have to shut the game down and restart it in order to clear out the ads...which pop up again several times in a row.
Eventually the ads cycle back to the clean, quickly ended ads. But within a few minutes, the offensive ads come back.
I will check back in a few days for a response from the game-maker. If I don’t see a response, I will post a Zero star rating and uninstall. Advertising does matter - as much as the game’s own behavior. Sorry.
Feb. 3rd: upgrade to 5 stars. I noticed an improvement within 3 days, and had a courteous response from the developer. Marvelous!

Developer Response ,

You're right. The quality of the advertising is very important to us. We have already arranged for bad advertising providers to be sorted out.
Thank you very much for your feedback!

Great Game !!!

I give this Spider Solitaire Game 5 Stars !!! Because it’s Challenging to play - an it’s fairly easy to play. So far out of 45 games I played - I won 42 games - an that’s because I played Daily Challenge Game - which automatically docked me those three lost games from my winning streak of games I was winning straight in the row - because of it. But a person should be able to win almost every game the way I see it here. So for the people - that I read the reviews that complained - that this game is to hard to play - in my book they just don’t know what they are talking about. I LOVE THIS GAME - ITS A MIND TEASER - IT MAKES A PERSONS BRAIN GET SOME EXERCISE !!! Great Game you people had designed here.

Good looking program

Advertisements are not intrusive when you play. I enjoy watching the way the cards move after you win. I am an. Artist and it appeals to me. I also appreciate all the ads I can escape quickly. That was a big factor in awarding the program 4 stars, but there needs to be improvements.
I wish the moves that are “hinted” always made good sense. They don’t.
When I tap the card it doesn’t necessarily even go to the card of the same suit if there is an available spot for that number or picture card on another suit.
Because of those shortcomings, and the fact that I have to in-do moved and manually do them again, I don’t consider my time to truly reflect my efforts so it has made competing with myself for speed something I no longer consider.
No matter how long it takes the program tells me it was my best time ever.
I also miss the way another program has a feature that kicks in when you are winning, the last few cards move by themselves. It confirms that you are winning and ends the game quickly.
It is these disadvantages that have kept me from paying for the ad-free version and awarding the program 5 stars.
I do hope the program improves.
