I would give this game zero stars if I could. The game is extremely difficult for no reason. I made it to level 157 and it is still as difficult as it was when I first began. You don’t receive any upgrades that are beneficial at all. The game is wired so you will lose if you don’t spend any money. You may be lucky to earn maybe 35 coins on each level however, everything is over 75 coins for boosters. Allegedly there upgrades to be earned but they get you nothing but 10 coins every 10 hours which is ridiculous. The app is inundated with ads constantly. There will be times where the color you need is not even available and it will not refresh but it will, if you do have the colors you need. The amount of placemats never increase either. All in all this is a horrible game created for consumers but with all the benefits for the developers. Maybe I’ll give it a try after some updates, but this game is a hard pass for me. I have never seen a more money hungry creation in my life.

I saw this in another review but it’s worth mentioning it again because it’s one of the most frustrating aspects of playing. Let’s say you have three cups and fill the 2nd cup before you fill the 1st. Once the cups move forward the 3rd (and now 4th cup) move into fill the gap where the 2nd cup was—making it pointless and to fill any cups out of order because now you have less time to fill them. The level I’m on now, I’ve been stuck on for weeks because it’s impossible to fill all the cups with this gameplay. I’ve tried every combination I can think of. What also weird is that it didn’t always do that, at one point it was fixed but then it went back. So annoying. A couple months back, I was stuck on a level for so long that I deleted the app to start over and it seems I may have to do the same thing here. It almost seems unplayable unless you pay for boosts or coins /:

I have really enjoyed playing this game but I have 2 complaints. First, there are 5 available extra shots to hold the juice but as soon as the fifth glass is full the game is over. What’s the point of the 5th glass if it’s going to end the game? It should be able to hold the juice until another shot glass is needed. The next cup to come up could empty some of them. Second, if I have 3 cups on the first 3 spots and I fill up the second one, the cup in the 3rd spot moves to the 4th spot, and the cup on the 1st spot moves to the 3rd spot. This gives us one less turn with that cup. I think the spots should remain empty after the cup is removed.
