What real reviews say
★★★★ Decent App Decent App, but I absolutely hate the ads. Also have no plans on paying to not have them. I’ll just close the app after each turn.
★★ Too many ads I can’t even enjoy playing because after each move I make, an ad pops up
★★★★ Commercials A short commercial is acceptable but when I can’t delete it in two or three tries, I leave the program and do other stuff. Temu is the worst. I keep threatening to quit all together due to commercials.
