3★I haven't played in a few years and just redownloaded.Melty season event has lasted over 2 weeks. Playing everyday means seeing the same 4 or 5 characters and their animations. it's gotten boring and there are some glitches. Right when I beat a level my phone died and it registered that I lost when it came back on. Paused a level,left and when i came back i had to start over. Got 5 "extra lives" still showed I only had the regular 5. Have not gotten to play the main game yet.Update after event.

2★I have played for over 10 years. I play every day. I watch every ad that is offered that gives me an immediate prize. In the last week, this new thing of having to watch 10 random ads so I can have the option to watch 2 ads for a couple of moves to help finish the level, is absolutely asinine!! I'm seriously thinking of quitting. Please just give me back the 3 ads at the end of the level.

1★REALLY fun game, BUT... 1) Forced ads when you get to higher levels. 2) I'm over level 1600, I don't need the race explained to me each time it starts. 3)I don't need the banner that says "Win on the first try to get a gold crown", yeah, level 1600, I got it. Those banners block so I can't see how many moves I have left. 4)you get a bonus item for 3 minutes, but have to sit through a 2 minute ad and other in game animations, so you only get 1 minute, not really a reward at that point.

1★This used to be a fun game I would play when I had some spare time. It is no longer fun to play. The game is run purely for profit now. They make it virtually impossible to pass certain levels without spending gold bars for extra moves. They used to show commercials for extra moves, so you were able to progress past a tough level. Now, they just want you to purchase gold bars in order advance in the game. What a shame. Another good thing ruined by greed.

2★I've been playing this alot of years. almost at level 19000. it's getting where the glitches are far worse than ever. you make me watch an ad and after doing so when you try to X off it takes you to their website and when you shut it down it takes your bonus you should have gotten and makes you start from the beginning. so you lose your man your bonus and I've also lost my gold bars after completing a race Fix it 🤔. Used to be 5 stars
