Sand Blast™ - Block Puzzle

You try the ad and you absolutely love it! Well because it’s a fun new game with a timeless concept! You download it! You finish A level THERE’S AN AD, that’s ok it’s to be expected right? Well what if there’s Ads when you get half way through a level? What if there’s ads that restart if you open up the app again? I love the idea of this game but gosh darn it I don’t want ads every 10 minutes! These people made a half way decent game with loads of potential only to sell out on so many ads?!? An I get it you can pay for it to be AD free but why does it have to be $9.99?!? -_- Like it’s sand Tetris! With that said I’m uninstalling the game because I don’t want to get excited to play it only to waste my time on ads. I’m disappointed:(

I was bored and saw a playable ad of this game, so I went ahead and downloaded it. Ive been playing it for the past hour or so, and to my surprise it’s still entertaining because of its creative design. There’s a nice effect when the sand is dropped and when a layer is cleared, and my favorite part is that, by watching an ad, you can get basically unlimited revives after the sand reaches too high. It’s fun for me to forever increase my score without having to restart. Something else I find really interesting is the ad breaks. Nobody likes ads, and I found it annoying when every so often, one would pop up on the screen. But after watching the ad, you’re rewarded with a gem which can be saved up and used as a tool to clear sand layers. More games should definitely include that reward feature. Sure, you have to watch an ad to continue playing, but there’s a reward that comes with it so just by playing the game over time you can stock up gems to use. I’ve played Block Blast, a similar game, and have never beaten my (grand) score of 30,500 points, which made me bored that I couldn’t surpass the number. The points system in this game is more fun than that, and I definitely recommend playing it!!

I love this game and the concept behind it. The only problem is whenever I’m using an attitude to do the revive, I end up having to restart the game completely because I somehow lost, even though I was granted an ad to do the revive… I got up to 800,000 and then this happened the first time then the second time I was at 600 something thousand and it happened again. I started to get really mad having to play all that to be restarted again… in the last two times I couldn’t even get up to 200,000. It just keeps happening and because they’ve updated the game and added the split color blocks. I can’t even get close to where I was before especially with this issue. It’s getting me to the point where I might stop playing it even though I really enjoyed the game having to restart just makes me so mad that I spent all my time getting to that point and then just being dripped out of something that I’ve earned when watching the ad in total..
