I love this game. I’m currently at level 393 and have not made any in-app purchases. The people that say some levels are impossible are misleading. They are “super hard” and require A LOT of tries to get them right. They even have walkthrough videos online to help you if you get stuck. I will say, there are some levels that have weird “physics”. The sand will fall inconsistently. For example, I will have a row of red at the bottom. But the row is very thin, so I’m able to get the blue from above it. Then, once the blue is gone I think I can reach the yellow just above the red, however the game doesn’t register the yellow to be collected even though the blue was collected just fine. The only suggestions I would give that could make this game better are to offer ads for free coins, and optimize the physics. The bad reviews are from people without patience. I’m very patient and try each level until I beat it. Never spent a dime on this game.

I like this game. As you win more levels, you have to plan ahead more, so it stays challenging. There are easier levels in between the hard and super hard ones. Most ads you can click out of, though a few occasionally freeze up and you have to leave the game for a few minutes and then go back to it. But the REALLY annoying thing is the daily win streak rewards. I rarely get past a three day streak before it tells me that I missed a day, even though I did not. So my daily reward is only ever Day 2 or 3, then it tells me I missed a day. I have to watch an ad, or lose the streak and start all over earning rewards. I watch enough stupid ads just playing, I’m not watching another, when I should not have to. Y’all need to fix this glitch

I’ve been playing this game for a while now, and I wanted to wait for an update so I can see if anything could change, but it’s not changing in the way I think is useful. I’ve spent the past four days on a level and I can’t get through it. You have to time your buckets perfectly, not place too many of the same colors down, and the fact the buckets always place in different spots when you have some slots open is irritating. If I was able to get some power ups through watching ads, it probably wouldn’t be that big of a deal. But I am only able to get power ups when I use coins, which you can only get after beating a level. Not to mention, it takes 900 coins to open a new slot, and 1800 coins for 3 power ups. Depending on the difficulty, you can get 25-75 coins per level. I don’t think that is fair with how often I get hard levels, and how hard some of these easy levels can be. I really do enjoy this game, but it sometimes just feels impossible, especially with how you only get 1 life added every 20 minutes.

For context, I have been playing this game on and off for a few months now. I’m at level 417, I’ve seen my fair share of stuff. I usually played to burn time and have a simple puzzle as a break from my rather hectic life. Sand falling and bucket grab ranges were a bit infuriating, but somewhat expected. On that front I liked the game.Before whatever happened, the game gives you 25 coins per level, and during events 5 keys. Hard levels got you 50 coins and 10 keys, and super hard levels got you 75 coins and 25 keys.Power up purchases give you three of an item at the cost of 1800 coins. It’s a little steep, but I’ve gotten to 3k coins before.All of this is relevant because of what I just realized for the current event.A normal level gave me 10 coins and 3 keys. A hard level gave me only 30 coins and 5 keys. I haven’t seen the daily streak pop up, so I can’t say for certain what changed about that.Mind you. The price of the power ups and threshold for the event levels did not change. It’s still 1800 coins to buy a powerup. So now, instead of only playing 72 normal levels, we have to play 180 to get the same result.Instead of thinking of an innovative new way to keep us playing, our rewards per level completion got sliced and we’re expected to play more levels out of necessity, not fun.Level 417 is the last level I’ll see. The one good thing about this update is that it made me see how desperate these guys are for all the micro transactions. Haven’t spent a cent, and will never plan to.
