The concept could be fun but the game turns into a commercial trap as you absolutely have to watch ads to beat levels. You should be able to beat the level with the amount of slots they give you but you can't past a certain point. Imagine buying a puzzle from the store that's missing pieces and you have to pay the company to get those pieces. That's this game in a nutshell

Fun game but it's made impossible to beat. On level 3, and after playing several times, i finally get to a point where I would win the level only to get stuck because there was 1 purple passenger left but no purple cars. How is that even possible?? So now I have to watch an ad to shuffle cars? The game is rigged so you're forced to watch ads.

I hate games that take 100 or more levels to get challenging, but I got stuck on level 3 on this one and had to watch an ad to get an extra parking space to be able to complete it. Level 4 is the same. Obviously, they want you to watch ads. That's unfortunate because this game would be fun if you could actually win most levels on your own.

As far as I can tell, every bus has an even number of seats. I end up in situations where I have twice as many buses with an odd number of passengers than free slots. That means the game was never winnable without watching videos. I don't mind doing that and would probably do it anyway, but there should be a way to complete the puzzle without it. I like the gameplay. I found a similar app that doesn't set you up for failure.

It's a good game, but is it ever possible to solve a level without watching an ad? Am I just stupid? Seriously is it me? Because I'm like 20 levels in and in every single level except the first I had to use an ad. I've played some levels dozens of times trying to not watch an ad and failed time and time again. You cant even skip past the ads they have to play in there entirety.🙄 (Reading other reviews I now understand that it's not just me and this game is just designed to make you watch ads)

I like the game and the puzzle aspect, but I bought the no ads because I was tired of videos every time I needed an extra parking spot or color sort. It doesn't seem to have actually applied. I would rate higher if it worked, but I recommend not bothering with the no ads payment as it appears to do absolutely nothing. Would be nice to get it fixed or a refund, but I'm definitely not spending any more money on it as my $10 was wasted for zero benefit.

Too many ads. There's no real strategy as long as you watch the ads. Then there's too many bugs with ads not playing. Pity, cos the premise was good. If you're a company paying for ads for this game, don't. I can't see half of them. Just a black screen. Hopefully, you're not paying for those? Froze again in the middle of a Google ad! Couldn't x out to get past it, had to restart. When it won't work with ads, then you use credit, then it runs an ad

It's a great game. I'm at level 170, so obviously it's compelled me to keep playing. But of all of those, there has been literally only *1* level that I haven't had to watch multiple ads in order to pass it. And my god, those ads are irritating. I've had to sit through three-part ads for Gossip Harbor like 70 times tonight alone, and I have become UNHINGED. When I first downloaded Bus Out, I spent $4.99 on coins and it only got me up 2 or 3 levels before it was all gone. What a waste.

Can be mildly fun but as others have said, you can't beat one level without boosters. It isn't skill, just what the game gives you. Just tried a level I had to boost from the very first move. 10 boost later and I'm still not half way through. The new daily log in rewards are busted and always glitch when built up to bigger awards. Levels ways to long and mindless and boring.

I love this game. It's so much fun, but the hard part is accumulating enough points to use options. You spend almost 50% of the game watching ads for Solitaire Clash. Its horribly annoying. Wish they could make the ads shorter to allow for more gametime play. Update I figured out that in 2 hours of play you watch more ads & commercials than a day of watching television. Greedy as hell.

Okay, all the ads, I understand. It's almost like you're being forced to pay $9.99 for 'No ads', because they're SO OFTEN! I was enjoying the game regardless of all the ads, unfortunately the game now keeps closing, crashing & etc.! I keep reloading it only to lose my progress AND the coins I spent during an active level! Purchased $4.99 bundle & I got Google receipt, money was GONE, but, never got what I paid for! Sent email to support explaining, including screenshots, NO REPLY, NO REFUND!

After the latest update, ads won't load to open another parking space. I tried clearing the cache, restarting the app, and eventually had to uninstall the app and the reinstall. Ad worked once but no more. And the game reset all my progress. I was on level 102 and had 8 jumbles and at least 50 coins. Super annoyed and hope they will fix the problem.

you guys really need to put a "back" button into this game to reverse accidentally touched buses next to the one you *meant* to touch. the buses are tiny, and the direction arrows hard to read, so mistakes happen all the time. Nothing more aggravating than watching an ad to save the game by opening a space, touching the bus you want to move, but you accidentally nick the one next to it, ending the game with no way to fix it. I'm getting ready to uninstall.. between the long ads I have to watch..

This game is equal parts addicting and frustrating - the buses are so tiny, it's easy to accidentally tap the wrong one and screwing up. I have spent more time playing ads to fix my mistakes than actually playing the game! I've figured out the strategy to pick the right buses so there's less chance for having to play ads, but it's extremely frustrating. Also buying coins isn't worth the money, everything is expensive to keep playing a level without failing.

I love a good color puzzle game, but it's annoying that you cannot beat a level without unlocking extra spaces and/or using power ups. Aka, you just watch ads for every level. It sucks bc I was excited when the levels seemed big and difficult right from the get go. Unfortunately they make it impossible to beat on purpose. I should be able to solve a level with only 4 parking spots, but no matter what strat I try, I can't predict which random diff color guy they'll send to mess me up. Its a shame

It's a fun game, I'm on level like 50 something. The reason for 3 stars is because, the ads are way too long and repetitive and some levels you 100% cannot pass unless you do the extra parking spot which requires you to watch an ad and this making this game also impossible to play offline. They will purposely mess up the colors so you are forced to watch the ads. I'll probably delete it now. It was fun for 2 days but now I'm getting annoyed.

I don't know if something is wrong with some levels, but I keep getting halfway through when an ad pops up and then after the ad it reloads the game started over. Very frustrating! It's happened on several levels occasionally, but usually only once each, but level 48 it's happened 5 times! I was almost finished each time. Super annoyed. Why is your game so buggy/glitchy after it plays an ad? It should pick up where it left off each time! When trying to contact you in app, there's an error msg.

Rediculously difficult! The only way to beat levels is to watch ads and this starts on LEVEL 2. I purposely did not watch ads for nearly 2 hours trying to beat the level and just kept restarting. Then I noticed I would get stuck with about 100 people left almost every time. So I changed strategies and it never got any better. After two hours without ads, when I got stuck i "watched" a 1 minute video and won immediately. After 1 hour of trying level 3 I watched an ad and won. DELETED JUNK GAME

I've played this game for a while now but have put off reviewing it to see if the ad experience would improve. The advertisers are taking advantage of the developers. So many long ads clicking over and over and getting resets or sent to the store. Fix the ad situation because the game is great. Deleting now. Sometimes you can't even load an ad when you want to

this is awful. it might be fun if it worked properly, but it doesn't! it's practically impossible to pass even the lower levels without boosters, which require you to watch ads -- but more than half the time the ad won't load. when it does, if the ad is for an app you already have installed, it opens that app automatically (without you doing anything); and even if you close it immediately and get back to the game within seconds, it almost always restarts the game and you lose your progress! >:(
