I liked this game a lot initially, it really made you think & strategize. Didn't mind the ads so much, and actually liked that you could watch an ad for an extra tube. As you progress the levels get harder (obviously lol), so you need that tube. However, with the update, now only way to get another tube is to buy it for 300 coins. This might just make make me ditch this game because I've been stuck on level 205 needing another tube and I can't get one. Disappointing.

If you pay for no ads, you still have ads for multiple in game unlocks. Like special levels or "free" prizes. I don't mind paying developers for the no-ad experience, but this isn't it, and they're super shady for setting it up like this. And it happens right in the beginning of the game. And trust me, the rewards/special levels aren't anything special. What a scam. Oh, and you're asked to review the game after every 2 levels. Here's your review. 👌

Simple and fun, but buggy and full of ads; every level or every second reset gets you an ad. It has a function where you can get reser moves or make a level easier by watching an ad, but more than half the time that function will fail - and yet the ads never fail between levels or second resets. The game is a fun time-waster but if the bugs don't get fixed soon, I'm just deleting it. The ads that come up constantly when I get stuck on a level aren't worth it if I can't ever get past it.

Really like the game, and after I bought the full version, it stopped playing ads after every level. The only time I ever had an issue with ads was when I needed more than 5 reverses or when I wanted to add a vial. Recently, though, I'll be playing the game, and it will just switch to an ad out of nowhere, without me hitting anything. I can be in the middle of a puzzle and it will just interrupt the puzzle to play an ad. It's very frustrating, especially since I paid for an ad free game version.

I really enjoy this game. My other game of choice is Wordscapes, so adding Ball Sort rounded out my brain. Did I miss the instructions, or are we supposed to figure the rules out as we go? A couple tries showed you can only move a ball to the same color or an empty tube. That was fine, but I had no idea you could get an extra tube until I read the reviews! I was stuck on Level 50 and found no way to continue until I got an extra tube, the only time I've needed one. The long, loud ads suck.

This game is a challenge and can keep you interested for a little bit. My main issue was with the lack of follow thru on clicks and constant crashing. When i would click on a button to get a bonus many times i wouldnt get the ad, there were times when i got the ad and never got the reward and occasionally it would just crash after watching the whole ad. It us a good brain teaser/tester if you can get past these issues

Ads stop the game. An ad pops up in the middle of the game, not between rounds. It cannot be closed, so you have to exit the game, which starts your round over. It makes the whole thing entirely useless. I've had this game forever and now it's ruined. Edit: Tried again and it is even worse. The levels with keys freeze the game. I can usually just restart it to make it work, but this last time it was frozen permanently. Emptied the cache and everything and it was just stuck. Had to delete it.

I've played this game for over a year. I'm on level 5123 and have opened all the ball colors, tube shapes and backgrounds. The most recent update absolutely ruined the game. I have the paid version, so I only watch ads if I want an extra option. Now instead of watching 1 ad, you have to watch 4. And the new ads run forever or get stuck or won't give the reward after watching. I'm most likely going to delete the game soon.

Too many tedious/repetitive ads for such a simple, basic-graphics, game. Entirely too many ads, and the ads are ridiculously long. I get needing ads for free play, but ... seriously ... this game isn't exactly high-end graphics. No need for 3-part 30 seconds ads. PLUS, it is, generally, the same three ads over, and over, and over, and over .......... The game itself is fine. Nothing groundbreaking, as there are a bajillion similar games already out there.

I love this game. I was really getting into it, but around level 80 it started crashing. Mostly the ads would make it crash. But it was SO COOL, I just put up with it. Now I'm at level 100 AND IT WONT STOP CRASHING! Ads make it crash. Notifications make it crash. Winning makes it crash. And start over. AAARRRRGH!!! Fix it and I'll give it 5 stars, I promise.

Too many ads! What to play another level? Watch an ad first. Want to restart a level? Not without an ad. Need that extra tube for help? That'll be another 30 second waste of your time watching yet another ad. You spend as much time on ads as you do actually playing the game. I can understand MAYBE an ad every 3-4 levels, but this is ridiculous. I'm only 3 days into this, and I'm so done with the ads. They're not even relevant, either. It's not worth playing to me anymore.

I've been playing this for almost a year and am through over 800 levels. I used to have it rated as 5 stars, but recently, the devs changed it so that a benefit that used to take one ad to unlock now takes four ads. It's really disappointing to see because it was a bonus I was happy to watch an ad for in the past, but four is just absurd, this just makes me want to uninstall the game on principle. I hope they get enough negative feedback about their poor decision and change it back.

This used to be a really fun game, but recently they QUADRUPLED the number of ads you are forced to watch. The ads are very long, very repetitive, and often lag or get completely stuck. Sometimes it gives an error at the very end of an ad, denying you your reward unless you rewatch the entire long, repetitive ad. I can't take it anymore, deleting the game. There are many others like it out there.

The game itself is fun and appealing, but there are far too many ads to sit through. The rounds/levels are relatively quick, and you have to watch an ad (often 30 seconds long) after almost every one. The uneven proportion of ad time to game play doesn't seen worth wasting time on, so it's hard to justify keeping it on my phone. I know free apps almost always come with several ads, but this one is excessive. There isn't even an option to purchase an ad free version of the game that I could see?

The game is great. It's responsive, calming, and has opportunity to be really challenging. It's the ads. Each 15 second ad will mute whatever music you're listening to, long enough the music app to close so you have to open it back up just to listen to music, but wait, that was only the first ad. You still have a splash screen to deal with, and even touching the screen will bring you to the play store, which you guessed it, stops your music again. You get one nearly every level.

Solving the puzzles is a good way to pass the time. But there are WAY too many ads. Between every level you are forced to watch an ad, whether you choose to or not. They are typically 15-30 seconds per mandatory ad. You also have the option to watch EXTRA long ads for a boost. Also, the ads are either completely uninteresting or completely uninteresting AND featuring mature content that should never be shown related to a simple game like this. 3 stars, and that's extremely generous.

First complaint- too many ads, but at least you can skip quickly. Second complaint- needs a rules section; I thought the game was glitching when it wouldn't let me set down a ball on another and would pick up the other ball instead, but through trial and error discovered that it's because you can't stack different colors (i.e. it has to be the same color as the one you're putting it on). Other than that, great game!
