What real reviews say
★★★★★ Love This Game It’s so refreshing, fun and more immersive to be able to play a game that has no ads. I’m enjoying the story, and the merging puzzles are lovely. I highly recommend this game if you also notice that most other games now are riddled with ads.
★★★★★ good game another merge fix it game, still havent gotten the “sick woman and child in a blizzard” but its a fun game with little to no ads. just hate that they feel the need to lie in their ads
★★★ Costs too much I had to delete the game before I started spending too much money for diamonds and energy. It’s a really fun game but you can’t accomplish much unless you’re spending real money
