Color Blocks 3D: Slide Puzzle

Yesterday I would given a 5 star rating and written a glowing review about how much I loved playing this game. I liked figuring out the order in eliminating the blocks and I liked that I could play while doing something else such as watching tv. However, I was sick of all the ads that popped up at every turn. I don’t mind watching an ad in order to gain something, as long as the ads that pop up at the end or beginning of each round are gone. When playing the game, I used to have the choice to buy more moves, either by spending 2000 coins, or watching an ad. Great. No problem. Watch an ad, get 9 additional moves. But then I PAID to get rid of all the ads and now I no longer have the choice of paying coins or watching an ad to gain additional moves. My only choice is to pay or lose my place and bonus position. I FEEL LIKE I AM BEING PUNISHED FOR PAYING TO STOP THE ADS! Why would you eliminate the opportunity to watch an ad to get more moves, just because someone paid not to see excessive ads between rounds? It’s not like there are no ads anywhere because I can still watch an ad to get a row eater, or a block bomb or whatever you call them. This has ruined the game. Please reinstate the options of watching an ad in order to gain 9 more moves.

It's an excellent mindless game, but like others like it, they have too many ads. I understand that ads are a necessary evil, but there needs to be some balance. I spent more time watching ads than playing the game; that is when it's no fun. I know it is a way to entice people to buy ad-free, but it is never totally ad-free. Watch this ad to get some coins. Watch that ad for a free turn. And the worst part is the ads go on and on and on forever. With the different games a person plays, they can see the same ad dozens of times in just one day. Most of the ads are geared to pubescent boys who want to see skirts hiked up to the privates and breasts practically falling out of the shirt. Women don't want to see that, and yes, women do play games. But rarely is a game ad geared toward women. What about young girls who like to play these games? What kind of message are they getting from these ads? As a female player, I am tired of not only long ads but ads with dumb females barely clothed.

Let’s just say this up front, I play games to relax. I have a stressful job and I don’t want to come home and play a game only to then get anxious because I have tried to pass a level 10 times and it seems impossible unless I purchase power ups. This game makes you think but it isn’t impossible and stressful. Those little robots have made me curse a time or two but it was all in fun. I am on level 135 so I hope it doesn’t change. The match 3 games all seem to be too much by now. I will keep playing and update if things change. Heck, I will happily update if they don’t! Have fun!!
