Pocket Sort: Coin Merge Puzzle

I never leave game reviews but, this is the first sorting game that I’ve actually enjoyed that seems not rigged or like one of those pay to play games. I also don’t mine that I can play it and not be swamped with long annoying ads because I am that girl that isn’t going to pay to remove ads until I’m fully committed to a mobile game. However, in saying that, I seem to be stuck at level 119 and have been for days and that’s unusual. I’ve been stuck at a level before and stuck with it but this has been days and I just can’t work it out. Anyone else have trouble with this level? Is it a gimmick where it’s not going to let me pass until I buy some special pack because I’ve already bought one and I’m just not going to keep doing that. I don’t mind buying something once a month but that’s as much as I’ll do for any game. Other than this annoying issue, which could be my own lack of understanding, I really actually like this game a lot.

So this game was fun for a while. But there are some things I didn’t understand. Some levels can be a challenge, but whatever. The problem is that you have the option to use “power ups” to help you get through a level, but you can’t use them unless you spend lots of coins. You are only earning like 5 coins for completing a level but a power up can cost 250 coins or more. But it seems like some levels have free power ups available if you watch an add, but the free option is not on all levels. Which is weird. There have been many times that I am 99% on a level and had to keep starting over until I finally win. Also, the ads are annoying … but if you spend money, you can get rid of them. I think they purposely make ads pop up while you’re in the middle of a level to throw you off. I don’t know. But I made it to level 335 until I just couldn’t anymore. Trying to get off this level isn’t possible unless you spend money to get through it. Or if you’re lucky, you have save up enough coins to purchase the power ups. It wasn’t a horrible game. It definitely kept my mind busy when I was bored.

UPDATE: These developers ROCK. They actually listen to their players and consider their input. The other coin merge games I’ve played don’t compare!!! PREVIOUS: As others have stated, even prior to the Jan 7th update, the game will quickly tell me I’m “Out of Space” when I can see space open up right after that last deal. This completely eliminates the ability for me to decide for myself if (A) I’m stuck and want to replay the level or (B) open up new space to move forward. If I decided to open up new space it would require gems I have on hand, gems purchased in-app or gems earned thru ad rewards. You’re limiting your earnings potential for those willing to pay or watch ads for a new space. Your previous responses state to report a glitch but if Everyone’s having this problem it’s not an isolated glitch in the programming that’s relative to a certain level. Just remove the prompt. Even if I report it, a screenshot as evidence won’t do because the prompt comes up too quick and covers the Entire screen so you won’t see the placement of the coins relative to the open spacing. I thought I was tripping & didn’t pay too much attention but once you watch how the dealt coins rest in that split second prior to the prompt, you watch the potential to progress disappear. At least let me X out so I can see where the coins ended up after the deal.
