Block! Hexa Puzzle™

THE GOOD: I have had this game since 2017. It’s been great. I even payed for the AD-FREE version of it. Easily worth that. For the 3 years of good play, I have no regrets in paying to remove ads. -now- THE BAD: I lowered my rating to 2 stars due to the new coins economy that replaced the hints. In the recent past, the daily bonus puzzles offered 1 hint for completion. Now, one “hint” costs 25 coins - and the daily bonus puzzles offer a chance to win 5, 10, or 15 coins; which are less than one hint. So I get less reward for doing the same work. In addition, the marker that displays the amount of coins you have constantly has a speech bubble saying “HEY” that can cover part of the puzzle. It’s advertising OVER the puzzle for you to purchase coins that you may not need (my hints converted to 7000+ coins, so I don’t need more coins). This, unfortunately, disrupts the game play. It was chill and tranquil, but now it is interruptive to see it pop up. If this is. To fixed, I would have to recommend finding another easy to view and play puzzle game. Decent game overall, but the new coin economy has lessened the value of your work and the intrusive attention drawing gimmick to get you to buy coins ruins the games tranquility.

I actually love the game and I started low and worked my way up. I find it very enjoyable and a good mix between casual play and a genuine challenge. Not to mention, there are very reasonable options if you just really can’t figure out a puzzle and need a hint or 2. I have tried to not use my hints as an extra challenge and have only needed to use a few. I have collected almost 140 hints between the first level all the way to the 7th. There is also the option of occasionally, watching an ad to get a free hint that pops up on the bottom corner. I had a slight issue with the game completely freezing almost every time an ad popped up during the first week or so of playing the game. It was frustrating but when the rotation of ads changed, the freezing stopped too. So, I’m hoping it wasn’t the game but some freak glitch that is over and done with now. Overall, I would recommend the game. It’s exactly like I thought it would be when I decided to download it.

Okay, so the rating, and review title, is pretty self-explanatory. I'm saying, like I've said on half of my reviews, that this game actually is a great way to solve puzzles, and try and fit pieces, even if they don't make sense but a three year old could solve 'em! Anyway, I'm getting ahead of myself. I'm just a kid, so I'm not too into like...what's it called..economics I guess since...buying and businesses..and all. ( I like physics though). On topic, though! This game provides the user to solve multiple levels of puzzles that progressively get harder, but it also has a LOT of ads. I might have over exaggerated on that, but they use quite a few during a short period of time. Buuuuuut...one thing..very small, but it makes a difference. As you've read in other reviews, "TOO MANY ADS" or something, but they use lots of ads because that means people are reaching out to popular games saying: "hey you're popular, think you can advertise us?", so they have a lot of ads, and I don't see what's wrong. GREAT game. Must play. Addicting as heck.
