This game takes time and patience or a willingness to spend money. I like the graphics and the fact that I can control when to watch ads. A minus is the side quests. They are sometimes good, but often too tedious and confusing to be enjoyable. Most side quests are open only a short time and you either have to devote huge amounts of time or cash to get through them. Either way when the time runs out they close and everything you were working on goes away. There is a zoo type side quest now that doesn’t appear to have a time limit. It is very slow paced though and fairly tedious. The main game is good. I like the graphics. The plants and animals look good and realistic. The story line is a bit corny and makes me laugh. You can play offline. If you’re data is limited on the go, be careful. Ads use mobile minutes.

I have 2 prior reviews that are not showing up, why is that? Because they are extremely critical?? My last review was made just a few days ago. I was stating how despicable it was that you have ruined this game -due to your greediness with forcing us to watch endless ads. Why would anyone want to play this now? You can’t even play for 5 minutes without having to watch an ad for basic tasks- let alone for any type of reward. What is wrong with you people?!! This is beyond pathetic. Can’t wait to see if this review shows up. Update: I just went into the game again…just OPENED IT as it was closed & on another device. I got an ad immediately !*@? Are you kidding me? I’ve never played any other game that forces an ad on you upon just opening the game. I’m only playing now, very minimally, because I have so much $$ invested as well as an abundance of resources in the game. Just waiting a little while to see if you remove these incessant ads. If not, I will delete the game - as I’m sure lots of other players will as well.

I’ve been playing for about a month now and I am in love with this game. It has a much better feel to it than other merge games that I’ve played. It’s very calming and very relaxing. Perfect to play right before bed.I do have one small issue. There’s been times where I’ve accidentally merged four items instead of five. It would be great if you could add some kind of warning or confirmation request when merging 4 or more items. What I mean is there has been a few times where I was saving four items to merge when I get a fifth. But while organizing my items I would accidentally hover over said four items and merge them by accident using only three of the items and losing the chance to gain a bonus item by merging five at once. On other merge games I have played they had a on/off toggle option that would allow you to turn on merge confirmations for all of your merges before doing them. That way when it’s turned on it will warn you that a merge (of any size three or more) is going to happen and you can choose to confirm it or back out of it. This prevents accidental merges of three items when you’re trying to save for five.Aside from this small issue I absolutely LOVE this game.

I have played this game for over a year and it was great. Something was changed by developers recently that is tanking my rating. I paid for “No Ads” and am now being forced to watch 30-second ads on selected moves. The ads freeze after 1 second and the only way to get the timer going again is to close down and restart Tropical Merge and relaunch it again … and with the ad refreezing every 1-2 seconds, it takes 15-25 “relaunches” to get out of the Loop. My chosen identity (not a generic IOS number) has disappeared and been re-assigned an “IOS identity.” This new identity is never granted any points during the multiple competition so, so much for trying to accrue bonuses for playing the game well. Please don’t tell me to contact Customer Support - I have submitted several issues and never received one response. This game is delightful, but only download if you are willing to be caught in a long Ad Loop or willing to play for pleasure.
