Merge Miners

The amount of ads made it unplayable. I set my phone down to look at something and within 30 seconds, there was an ad playing. Mind you, I was in the middle of a level. You get ads mid level, ads at the end to multiply loot (which isn't bad), ads in the level select, and ads when you go afk for less than a minute. Neat idea, but the shear amount of ads was too much to handle.

Merge cap (41) initially takes some time to reach, but after you reach it there is no incentive to prestige, if the option even appears. Game is buggy, and would crash if left open longer than 15 mins or so of playing. I purchased the ad-free pack but after a few updates they removed that, and replaced it with a pay to skip ad system. Very dissatisfied because as the game progressed and was updated more, it only got worse. Great idea, fun graphics, horrible experience.

Super fun and addicting. Ungortunatly it has a ton of ads, if you sit still for too long it gives you an ad too. It stops giving you spaces after a while and the game is kind of on repeat for the most part. There is only 4 buildings you can actually build; then collecting bricks is kind of useless. So, I think it has a lot of potential as a mindless game but needs to fix those issues.

Forced ads are a terrible model. At least there was a cheap option to disable, so I did bc I thought the game was satisfying to play, but now I wish I could get a refund because the game is boring. It is not challenging at all. As levels progress it just gets easier. After level 100+ you just merge, drop and get all 5 chests, repeat. I never have to play a level twice to succeed. Also, you get rewards, but I'd your grid is full, you just don't get them. That's super annoying.

As others have said, it is lousy with forced ads. Watch an ad after every level for a bonus. Click 'No thanks' and you still have to watch a forced ad, you just get nothing for it. The building part of it maxes out before level 100, so the blocks you gather become useless. Bonus cash maxes out at 2k, so you are able to purchase fewer tools with it as you progress. Whole game becomes a pointless repeat by level 100. Ok for a couple hours at most.

The game is a good way to waste time. But this game has 1 and I mean 1 major flaw, and that's the abundant amount of ads. If you're going for a free to play way, then get ready for ads to pop up it you do nothing and after beating a few levels. Yes you can pay to no longer to receive ads. The issue with that you still have ads popping up. To skip a level you have an ad, to get another spin you have an ad, you even have a gift that takes up space with an ad. It's horrible.

Has potential to be fun. But the bugs in this game ruin progress. I've had an Amazon ad pop up out of nowhere. When I return to game it reloads from the title screen. I've lost high level pickaxes because of this. Also I can't believe I'm complaining about this. But the ads don't work 80% of the time. Kind of sucks to see a bonus stage pop up and not be able to play it because I can't watch ads. That's my only grip with ads not working.

Personally I'm absolutely loving this game. It's a good time passed and bit of slightly mindless order that helps me ground myself on bad OCD days. That being said, it is a bit slow at times. Also, this is likely only a problem I have encountered but it hasn't taken me long to complete all current biomes and unlock everything; to the point that I now have three of the max level (61) items. Hoping an update will bring more to unlock!

the ads. if you don't purchase to remove ads, this game experience would be Atrocious and i would've uninstalled immediately had the price been any more. but, removing ads (when i did) was only 2-3 dollars, and it was super worth it. i am addicted to this game, and i look forward to getting more updates as i've maxed at 61. haven't had any quality issues like crashes!! recommend having google opinion rewards, and you could possibly remove ads completely free.

There is this VERY BAD glitch where if the game closes for any reason while you're in a level, it will entirely revert all the merging and "gift" opening you've done. This has caused me to lose quite a bit of progress several times, and even lose a very good reward from the daily quests. Even worse is that this game seems to have some ads that will cause you to open your browser or app store without touching the ad, which can cause the game to close itself in the middle of gameplay.

I think there might be a game in your ads. Seriously I am actually surprised this qualifies as a game. Simple and fun gameplay, which makes beating levels quick, but the ads are actually longer than a LOT of the levels. I also guarentee I am one of the only people playing as nobody else has a score go up and I am always at the top of the leadboards with no competition. Seriously, at least dial the ads back a little, this is just downright sad.

Should call it watch ads game. Literally, to play each round, you have to watch an ad, and even after drop, it might not show. Then, when it's done, an ad pops up. Don't forget 1 more to get to drop the next round. Then you have to watch an ad for more shovels, and when you merge, I got a pop-up ad. Total garbage. You can have ads, but I'm sure the ad servicer requires them not to interfere with direct gameplay ability, I'm tired of these ad heavy games and a report is getting made.

Horrendous ads!!!!! It's crazy how many ads. They are unskippable, unmutable, unrelatable, and even when I click "no thanks" to rewards I STILL have to watch ads! Most of them having to click close 3 times or more to get back to the game. This is unbelievable. About to Uninstall this game because of it. JUST GO EASY ON THE ADS! And No!!! I am not going to pay money so I can play such a basic game without ADS, I get that you want ad revenue from non paying users but I'm about to uninstall(0$4u!)

Good time waster. However, they lead you believe at first that the ads aren't that intrusive. This is only true at the start. There is an option to watch an ad for a bonus after every lvl. I skip this ad but if you skip it too much you're forced to watch an ad anyway with no reward. If you're going to make us watch it why give us a choice and if we don't have have a choice we should get the bonus. Played for 2 hrs before it became watching ads more than playing. Crashes after a few games too

This is honestly a pretty fun game. My only major gripe is how it tries to have you watch an ad for a free pickaxe and you have to wait like fifteen seconds for it to clear before you can put a pickaxe in that space. As for the little things, you can not play at all with an Internet connection, slighty few too many ads, sometimes you get set back a little if you accidentally click an ad and are exited from the game. Idk about long term playability, but for now it's a very fun game.

This game is pretty addictive. I'm starting to experience problems at higher levels, though. The level 61 tool, a gold bomb, is broken. It just bounces off the chest or tool at the bottom forever. I'm stuck on level 914 unless I throw away my level 61 tool. Also, the progression for tool purchase with coins needs to happen faster. I have a level 61 tool but can only buy level 9, which is useless and leaves my grid clogged all of the time, so I have to throw tools away to claim prizes.

Started off pretty well, considering the amount of ads in the game, but now it's unplayable. I'm unable to progress past my current level, the mining picks just bounce in place without end. I close the app, reopen it, and I haven't progressed in levels, nor do I get any rewards or credit for the daily quests. Uninstall, reinstall game, and then have to start over. Go back up about 200 levels, and I'm stuck with the same problem. I'm not about to start from the beginning again...
