Piffle

This game is fun... in the beginning. After level 100 it becomes less fun. But now that I’m on level 322 it just becomes awful. The problem is special abilities and the 5 lives system. The special abilities were fun, when that was all they were - special to help a troublesome level. But now it’s needed to win, along with the bombs, shuffles, and hammers. The life system is also interesting. You have five lives, and it takes 15 minutes to get another, I know that it’s to keep our excitement with the game high and make us not want to waste it, but on a hard level it can be very bad. Here’s a example, I’m on level 322. I go to play and don’t use the boosts. I play 3 times and the bad guy comes and spawns some blocks, on the second to last row he spawns 2 ice spinners and 1 slime guy that are all more than 30 health. I have EIGHT PIFFLES. So I loose. I try again with one boost. I loose. This goes on until I use all my boosts. (And it’s not just like I’m a bad player, because I got to level 322). So I had to save up for THREE WEEKS getting on and collecting the daily reward and bombed, shuffled, hammered, and boosted my way to victory. That’s not how you make a good game This game does have a lot of good things, I like the graphics. I like the idea, and the different blocks, I like the story. but I don’t like the pay to win aspect. And sometimes even fun games can be brought down when stuff costs up to 100 U.S. dollars.

ive avidly played this game for the past year or so. while my addiction to this game wanes and waxes, at least once a week i set time aside to play. words cannot explain my deep dedication and value for this game. after reading some of the reviews, ive gathered that people experience a few problems: 1 that they dont enjoy using “cheats,” or the free power-ups which they offer. 2 that they believe that they MUST use the recommended power-ups or its simply impossible to move forward, and 3 that they dont enjoy how completely clearing the space drops down 3 new rows of blocks. to which i must say, that is just part of the game. the game GIVES you free power-ups and such to use at will. i only started using mine at about level 320, and i still rarely use them. if you are struggling to move forward in this game it is simply because you need to get better at it. piffle has a great amount of love from me, and i’ll probably continue playing it until ive cleared every level at least once.

Where do I even begin?? Ok so, this game was so much fun and I had a hard time putting it down until I got to around the 140th level. At that point in the game you basically can’t beat a level without using one of the cheats. I found this EXTREMELY annoying. But me being my hard-headed self, I tried to keep playing and I kept trying to beat more levels. I keep going back to the game hoping that I will see a way to pass the level that I am on, but I actually sincerely think that it is impossible. They only start you off with like 8 piffles but the blocks you are given are up to 15. How am I expected to break a 15 block with only 8 piffles? Also, I hate how when you completely clear a screen that instead of being rewarded you get punished. By this, the game moves down three more rows so you basically have to do more work than usual. And when you go to start a level and the game has a red sign saying ‘recommended’ this basically means that you can’t complete the level without using that item. The only reason I still have the game is because of the daily challenges. The daily challenges are actually reasonable and provide the right amount of challenge with the right amount of easiness. That’s another thing. I like to be challenged but this game just took it to a whole different level (not in a good way). As of right now the only thing good about this game is the daily challenges, and I am HIGHLY disappointed.☹️
