Chain Cube: 2048 Number Match

For the past several days, this app keeps automatically launching the browser on my phone and taking me to a scam site for winning an iPad just for answering a few questions and picking a box to see if you won. Then it wants you to enter credit card information for shipping charges, so it’s clearly a scam. The page is formatted to look like a major online retailer, and the comments are in the format of a social media site. They are fake comments since the date they were supposedly posted keeps changing to the current date, but it’s the same comments. This doesn’t happen when using any other app, and I don’t download apps or visit websites that could potentially harm my device. There is something going on with this game specifically. I don’t see any way to contact the developer directly, so I’m leaving this review. Please fix this issue, and I will give this game the 5 stars that it deserves. Update 29Nov2023: The issue noted above was addressed soon after my initial review, so I’m changing my rating. I love this game, it’s a great one to play idly as I’m watching TV or listening to a meeting. Well worth the money to remove the ads. I’m also very happy that smaller cubes get removed as you hit higher cubes. It makes way more sense that way. Awesome that 256k is no longer the biggest cube! Looking forward to continued updates and features!

I like the game as a good “take your mind off the world’s problems for a few minutes, BUT THE ADS are just ridiculous. There is no reason for that many or that many game breaks to tell me I got an easy combo. I think that could be taken out. I was going to purchase the “no ads” however other reviewers said it will still give you ads so I will wait on doing that. This is like getting a participation ribbon for taking 3 steps in a race. It takes out the fun of actually seeing the big combos. I’d say it’s worth playing for an escape but the ads will also take away your attempt to ignore the ads. You decline the extra bonuses and you still get an ad. And being in a “run-off” state means I can’t escape political ads for anything! I don’t want to play a game and have that many ads or have to watch political commercials incessantly. I hope they take some suggestions from the reviews and dial them back or I think we can all say it will be a game we will put down as soon as another version with less ads comes out. I’m all about the understanding that needing ads is part of free games but this is killing the game and the reason people play it. Developers, please take our pleas of less ads into consideration 🙏🏼.

Yeah it’s a bit addictive and a good time waster but oh my god is it repetitive. It was to the point that I decided to just throw all the blocks in one place and see if it would work. It worked better than my previous strategy. Granted when I tried it in the next level it didn’t work so I guess I just got lucky. That’s the other reason I don’t like this game, the sheer amount of luck involved. you have no idea what block is coming up next, the blocks can have any number between 2 and 128 which just throws all strategy out the window, you can’t plan for anything! Also congrats on reaching 512 with the two 256 blocks we gave you how about a reward? Oh? You would rather not watch an ad for a power up you never use? You thought the power up was the reward? Well you were wrong because the reward was an ad for royal match and you get to see a king die in a new way every time you get this number because you don’t get to choose weather or not you want to see it! We’ll remove this torture if you give us five dollars! Except according to other reviews apparently not. I was sitting there playing this game thinking up this review in my head as I was constantly getting unwanted awards because it was more fun than the actual game. If you’re looking for an actually fun 2048 game, just go to cool math games and play the actual 2048, it’s also free and it doesn’t force you to witness murder every 2 minutes.
