Puzzle Villa: Jigsaw Games

I have downloaded this game for about three months, and I’m thoroughly enjoying it. At first, I found the ads to be annoying, especially since an ad would pop up in the middle of your completing a puzzle. However, they offered a “no ads” package option for $3, which I think was is a very fair price considering it also had a bunch of boosters and in game currency. Now that I have paid that, I never ever see an ad, unless it is for bonus prizes after you complete a puzzle. I see that that can get confusing to some people since you have to wait a few seconds for the skip option to appear. But it is there and it is not a long wait. I love the daily quests, as they are challenging, but not actually hard. And once you complete the daily quest, you get a bunch of extra endgame boosters in currency. So now I never have to spend actual money to continue to play this game, which is extremely rare. I do, occasionally spend my own money because I want this game to keep being fun. I don’t mind, because it is a something I choose to do versus something I must do in order to continue to play. I also love the puzzle selection, and I have find the decorating and special event rooms to be fun! This is definitely a game I reach for whenever I want to unwind in the evening, or if I have a few minutes to spare. I would highly recommend downloading this game if you like any kind of decorating or puzzle games.

This app recently began adding to the original story with an outdoor stage scene. At first I thought I would enjoy adding another venue to the villa. Then I realized that the creators of this app have added a time constraint to building the new scenes in a shameless attempt to force players to buy more time and tickets to complete scenes if we do not finish before time runs out. I am a retired person on a fixed income. You can keep your new scenes. What makes you think the scenes in your virtual villa are worth my real money?? Received the not at all helpful response to my complaint. The responder does not even know proper English. Where DO you find these people? My complaint was that you are charging real money for tickets to finish a scene in a virtual game. You made the original amount so high I would have had to play almost continuously to complete all the quests on time. Not worth my time.…. I would be amazed to find that sensible people would actually spend money on such nonsense.

It’s really hard for me to find something I enjoy and will stick to. This game is PERFECT to keep challenging me with new and different puzzles to keep me interested, but also getting to design a little. It’s a great balance between relaxing, challenging and fun. I’ve never left a review before, but this is probably the only game on any phone that I’ve ever had that actually gets used constantly instead of deleted after a month. Things I hope to see in the future: 1. To be able to rotate puzzle pieces to make it all the more challenging. 2. To be able to zoom in on a specified location of the puzzle without narrowing down the number of puzzle pieces that are available to me. I prefer doing the larger puzzles, but with a smaller screen, I wish I could zoom in to see them better.
