Woodber - Classic Number Game 4+

PLEASE add a way to "mark" tiles!

PLEASE add a way to "mark" tiles (color their text and background differently)! That would be fun and enable pulling off more complicated patterning without the intensely bad feeling of accidentally ruining everything thanks to a little memory hiccup. It could be a marker icon by the hint and + (clone) buttons, that when clicked toggles you into marker mode, which lets you color tiles by click instead of trying to pair them. You could have bonus marker colors obtainable as rewards for whatever! Please have the clone button duplicate any markings as well. Overall: Great puzzle game. Easy to learn, hard to master. My only complaint is that even after I paid to "Remove Ads," it makes me watch an ad to access bygone daily puzzles. Please make it clearer those ads are not included in the "Remove Ads" package.

Room for improvement…

The game is fun and challenging. While I hate that there is no undo option, I also like it as it makes you think longer to ensure the pair you’re about to match is worth it in the long run for clearing a line or the board. What I do not like, however, is the inconsistency of the rules. A clear cut explanation on what clearing lines from right to left vs left to right and vice versa would need to be made. Because 70% of the time I go to make a pair in one direction it doesn’t go. But then a new line later, another pair in the same direction is okay? I’ve sent a message to the help chat with screenshots as they advise showing how it wouldn’t work in certain directions on one occasion but then does on another occasion and I’m still waiting for an answer four days later…the ads are also kinda much. I just leave the game for a bit if I get too annoyed but if I encounter too many click to close and it really pops up the download an app or website screen, I can 100% live without playing this game and will delete it with no second thought.

Update: in response to your response, as I said in the initial review, I have reached out to you guys via chat and have still not received a response back. So another issue there.

Too Many Ads

I was thoroughly enjoying Woodber and would have found myself consistently drawn into its engaging gameplay and captivating mechanics but the ads are none stop. The game's design and content truly offer a lot of fun and might have kept me entertained for hours but, there's a significant issue that consistently undermines the overall experience: the incessant, intrusive commercials.

Unlike the occasional ad breaks that some games feature, Woodber seems to be plagued by popup commercials that appear out of nowhere, disrupting gameplay at what feels like every turn. These ads are not only frequent but also extremely jarring, breaking concentration and diminishing the enjoyment I was previously experiencing. It's disheartening to feel like the enjoyment of the game is being overshadowed by what seems to be an overzealous attempt to monetize through excessive advertising.

It feels as though the game is being exploited for additional revenue, prioritizing ad views over the player’s immersive experience. This approach is frustrating and detracts from what could be a truly enjoyable game. I sincerely hope that in the future, developers take note of this issue and create similar games without bombarding players with constant interruptions. A game that values player experience and offers a more balanced approach to monetization would certainly be welcomed.
