I like the game. Sometimes there are words I do not know what they are. I feel like I need a dictionary at times when there are two many tiles that I don’t even know the words I am trying to match. Ads are a necessary evil, but I do not like the game interrupted for them and it being the same ad over and over. I had to sit through 3 ads with the last puzzle I worked. All the same ad which makes it even more annoying. I am spending more time on games where the ads don’t interrupt play and also, when the ads are longer than the play in between, I automatically delete. It’s ridiculous to play a game and the ad time is longer than the time you spend playing. I feel harrassed by these ads and even if it is something I might be interested in, I won’t even try it bec I feel like it is being shoved down my throat. So I reject the ad completely and if annoyed enough, I will delete the game. Surely there can be a compromise that is reasonable to make offers with the ads and still have sufficient playing time. I’ll give this game a chance, but if I continue to have interruptions while solving a puzzle, I will delete it.

So I gave it another try. It was going along ok for awhile - the ads, especially the “ad breaks” while working a level - are excessive, but bearable for short periods. However, the “hints” are useless. I’ve only had to resort to them a few times, but each time they’ve just shown me something I already had. Just now I had to sit thru two solid minutes of ads to get a second hint, and it gave me - something else that I already had. RIDICULOUS. There are multiple items to do with food and cooking and I’m sure I’ve put them in every possible combo, and other sets have 3 items and nothing else remotely related, but I’ve tried shifting them around anyway, obviously to no avail. When I came to do this review update there was a game update, so I did that. If it doesn’t do me any good, I’ll be deleting again, as I’m not about to sit thru an hour of ads while it keeps giving me pairings I already have together, and I’m not getting thru this level any other way. tI think this game could be fun but I had to remove it after playing only a few levels because of two issues. One, even tho the sound was supposed to be off, the ads blared out loudly, making it useless in public settings unless using airplane mode. Second, it stuck an ad over one of the rows of words I needed to play and it never moved, rendering the level unplayable.

This game is very easy in the beginning because they want you to play. It quickly becomes challenging and I like that, however, some of the pictograms are very difficult to decipher, so it would be nice if I could “tap” the icons for a definition. Also, some of the clue words are so obscure that I have to look them up, ie tiaga - meaning forest. Am I going to use this again? No! Also, sometimes when trying to match 4 clues, the item to match is not available on the screen. This forces you to match other items first. Also, when matching lines not at the bottom, the game will unmatch other lines not completed when a match at the bottom disappears from the screen after the bottom line is complete. Ads in the middle of game play are soooooo annoying! It breaks your concentration! And yes, I know that ads are so that the game is free, but an ad in the middle of game play and the again 3 seconds later in the middle and then at the end of the level is excessive. Not sure I can keep playing this game. People in other reviews have said that level 140 is “broken” and can’t be completed. Why not fix it? Got to be frustrating!
