Tilescapes: Zen Tile Matching 4+

I’ve been playing a long time and really like it, relaxing and normally just challenging enough. So I don’t mind spending some money on the game - it’s worth it. And I really like the variety of the new events, but they are soooo hard that by level 20 there are rounds I can’t get through, even with lots of help moves. I recently purchased the piggy bank and spent all the coins in one level and still didn’t pass that level. I also bought the VIP and used tons of the prizes and still only got through a couple levels. I want to play but it gets too expensive and too frustrating. I hope those special events can be adjusted to be a little less hard. Thanks for a great game

This game is a great way to kill time. I love playing it. But it is completely rigged after you achieve a certain level. The “special events” are impossible past level ~20 unless you use “cheats”. And the rooms you can design stop after a certain point. The normal games will randomly add tiles to the background out of no where, and the total tile count you see doesn’t add up. E.g. you’ll have one or two of a tile selected, and there will be only eight tiles visible on the screen…and then randomly more tiles will appear in some random area based off of your play/select…the tiles don’t add up and you cannot play strategically… I get it, it’s an intentional strategy on their part, making the games “almost” solvable, and I’m fine spending a little money on games, but this one takes the cake on rigging. Especially when it comes to the special games. Also - you’ll finally pass a level that was impossible (using cheats, of course) and you’ll be rewarded with flowers - except, there are no rooms to decorate. I have THOUSANDS Of flowers and no rooms to design. Seems like they’re too busy making “special” games to play and not focusing on the zen aspect.

I really LOVED this game until I hit the 200 level, where I began to notice that it’s simply impossible to get through the second stage of each level without spending coins to shuffle or rely on other boosters. It’s a great concept and very relaxing to match tiles and decorate rooms. I also really appreciate the fact that it’s not on a timer. Still, at one point, I had close to 3,000 coins built up, some from purchases, and now I’m down to about 300 because I just can’t bring myself to continue to purchase coins which I know are going to disappear quickly since the tiles are stacked in such a way that even with strategy, it’s not enough to avoid needing help. In the end I should express my gratitude to the developers for helping me to see what a waste of time this is. So many games/developers could really “have it all” if they just weren’t so ridiculously greedy. Oh well, it could have been a fun relationship, but there just too much take and not enough give. Will be deleting.
