Matchington Mansion for Negative User Reviews

✓ Good game...butIn my opinion much better than similar games in this genre. good balance on difficulty (I agree with others, some are impossible without power ups), good features like daily bonus and interacting with friends, graphics are very well done and I love the mystery story within the game..but there are 2 problems I see with this game 1..Tiffany. The most annoying feature in this game by far. Maybe, instead of being stuck with her, players can have the option where they can choose a "friend" they would like to play along with. 2..Using up 2/3 stars for stupid tasks like feed the cat, read a book, teach puppy a new trick or introduce cat to puppy is a bit much and frankly a waste of stars. I would not mind using up that amount if it was to decorate the mansion but not on mundane tasks that have no relevance to the game what so ever. Sort this out. Other than that I would like to say well done to the team and continue the good work..Basey101Version: 1.6.0

✓ MehSome levels are really hard and it’s actually quite stressful being stuck on a level and then running out of lives but too many people are complaining about that so I’ve decided to talk about the furniture. The furniture and the walls and flooring are not very customisable at all. For example, in the hallway, there’s a lovely blue carpet that I chose with a hideous grandmas curtains sort of blue wallpaper, but it’s even worse when it gets to the sofa because there is NO SOFA THAT GOES WITH ANYTHING I HAVE CHOSE!!! And it’s not just in this instance that this has happened. It’s happened in the bedroom too and I have only got up to there so I imagine that the rest of the mansion is like that as well. I would maybe recommend a wider range of selection and colours. Another thing that annoys me is when it makes you waste your stars “answering the door”, “brushing up the leaves (three stars)”, then after all of the brushing up the leaves “brushing up the paper (three stars)” “getting the package” and then you get the idea. Basically, your furniture and walls don’t match (and they’re hideous anyway), some levels are too hard and nobody wants to be answering the door and brushing up leaves when they could be decorating a hideous digital mansion. Thanks for reading..Cheese_Queen_7Version: 1.26.4

✓ Latest update has major bugsSince the latest update my version of the game is constantly crashing. It closes itself all the time for no reason and takes lives off each time I try to reopen. I can’t make use of double reward or anything that requires watching ads as it closes/crashes and the reads as I have watched a vid but doesn’t give the reward. Love the game and nearly at level 2000 but won’t keep it around if it keeps crashing....HocqVersion: 1.43.2

✓ Fun, but not perfect.I really like of concept of the game. The side events are fun too. I find it frustrating that the match games get quite tricky, and you’re faced with side tasks like “talk to dog” “play with dog”... sometimes it takes me all of my lives for a single star that I have to waste it on a meaningless task. I just want to build and customise the house... that is, after all, what attracted me to the game. If I had a map to track my levels and their difficulties, it might be a little more fun to face a “difficult level”... but I have candy crush for that. If I felt as though my time spent with this app (playing the match games) would actually help me to progress through its missions (even just 85% of the time), I would spend more time playing..DebsadrifterVersion: 1.50.3

✓ Fun Game but rigged to become expensive!The game is fun to play but it gets to be very expensive to play the harder the level because you literally can’t clear the boards without purchasing the special items to assist you. That means you have to buy coins to do so and they don’t give you a lot of coins when you clear the board compared to what you had to spend to do it. They also make the bombs and special items less effective so you have to use more of them to clear the board which means more money. It’s all a gimmick to make you spend more and more money and what was once really fun now becomes really really annoying. They should stop being so greedy and allow people to truly have fun while they still make some money of course but this is ridiculous. I would have loved to continue playing but after spending close to $200 in less than a week that’s my limit. That’s ridiculous to be honest but it was good entertainment for the time I played. Would have loved to have seen the mansion completed but oh well. I didn’t join a team but now I see that is only a way for them to obligate people more to spend money because many of the teams have coin requirements each week. Can’t imagine how those people afford to keep playing and pay their bills too. Lol Maybe they know some tricks I didn’t learn in a week. Oh well!.Just BewareVersion: 1.71.2

✓ Beware...not a fair challengeLike all games of this type, the beginning levels are fun and winnable. However, as you increase through the levels, they make it impossible to win a game without buying additional moves. The points that you win are very small compared to how many points you need to do something. Also, later levels require you to win two levels before you can do something, and even then you may only be able to look at a project or talk to a visitor. But the most important thing to remember is that this is not a skill based game. They control the game play, including how many moves you get per level. Even though you make the best moves you can, the pieces fall in a very unpredictable way, making the game impossible to win without buying additional moves. I often need one more move to win a level. Since I refuse to buy moves or additional lives, I often spend several days at a level before being able to move on. After awhile I become tired of the rip off and just delete the game. Just be aware that their ultimate aim is your wallet. I can see gamers sinking an amazing amount of money into this game without being aware of it. I still think a skill based game is a better bang for your buck..KhgtfjifgVersion: 1.55.1

✓ DishearteningAs much as I love this game it’s becoming very disheartening and boring by having to repeat the levels sometimes up to 10 times just to pass! Which by this stage the points drop to just 2. Especially when you have paid for the pass and each stage requires more and more points to attain the mansion items!! Seriously Matchington can you either keep the points required consistent or make the levels with more moves or do something to make it more worthwhile. Sometimes I get so sick of trying to pass some of the levels it makes me want to delete it altogether. Totally frustrating, especially when one works full time and can only play this every so often. :(.CandyFilledChaosVersion: 1.106.0

✓ BadThe commercial is not the same as the game 😡.Brunetti6Version: 1.38.0

✓ False AdvertisementLiterally nothing like what the ads showed. Not nearly as interesting either..55221 I dont have a nicknameVersion: 1.38.0

✓ Good game but...After downloading Matchington Mansion, Homescapes and Gardenscapes this is definitely the best one out of the three but there are frustrations! There are many levels that are incredibly hard and impossibly unable to pass unless you spend money buying more coins. Stupidly I have done so in order to get ahead but I won’t be anymore as you don’t progress much further anyway so it’s a complete waste. I can see from other users that have left reviews that they also have commented on the difficulty of some levels so you would hope the developers would read these reviews and make the adjustments! I’m aware it’s all part of a ‘story’ but it’s incredibly frustrating to work through tasks that include cleaning up leaves, playing with the dog or cat for 2/3 stars, these minimal tasks should be 1 star so you don’t waste too much time on them and more time on designing the mansion! Additionally, there was a review that caught my eye too and I agree but it’s not overly important! There should be more colour schemes as there are some pretty quirky choices! You can visit other “friends” in the game and collect other designs they may have (a little exclamation mark will show) but there are some rooms that have a nice selection of wallpaper then 3 options for a floor all of which are a bit garish but each to their own! Thank you.Char1ey_PVersion: 1.33.0

✓ Wonder TicketThis used to be a great game until the more recent changes to the bonus levels, also the latest wonder ticket. You made us believe the platinum ticket was a very great deal! But it’s not and sadly you are losing your customers due to the changes in the last few months. Sadly it’s all about money and greed..Wendyem73Version: 1.122.1

✓ RiggedDo not get this app the game is rigged it makes you play so much for me time I almost passed a really hard level and had moves to spare but all of a sudden the game ended and I payed 500 coins for five more moves I played my move but moved a completely different one so I keep playing. The company wants your money that’s all. Another reason is it’s completely different to the adds I thought this game would be cleaning the house but no nothing about that’s in the game maybe you have to reach a certain level to get to it but the levels are rigged so I probably never will. Lastly you have to use stars (which you get every time you pass a level) to do dumb things like answer the door. They do this so they have more things which require stars and they are hard to get so you buy them..EgjrjehsicivungnfdjesscfVersion: 1.40.1

✓ Played for years, new visuals and colour scheme are unpleasantI’ve enjoyed most of the functionality and power up changes to the game, including competitions and limited furniture sets. There have been small tweaks to certain icons like the fireworks and rainbow ball, lion statues etc. that I haven’t minded. However the newest update is garish, was it even tested before release? The pillow colours are much darker and saturated and yet have even lower contrast, making them blend in to everything else on the board which also got new colours. The new power up colours are purple which also makes them harder to see - whereas before they were white and rainbow which made them really obvious. Even their shape has changed. Previously the colour scheme was lighter and more pleasant, with contrast between items and power ups. Not only is this new design more unpleasant and over saturated, it makes the whole board blend together and difficult to play. I don’t know how anyone with low vision could play any more, so it’s now not very accessible. I’ve put actual money in to this game but might stop playing now as it’s genuinely unpleasant to use..Blur_SeasVersion: 1.151.0

✓ False advertisingYou should be ashamed for manipulating people into thinking something the game is not. P.O.S..Manuelpe78Version: 1.38.0

✓ Download Bait.The game is nothing like the ad for it..Leeleelovebug7080Version: 1.39.0

✓ Do you read your reviews?I like your game but I read your reviews and most are about the same things. I seen and played with the feelings that they express. So obviously you don’t. Otherwise reviews would be better. You do have good graphics and storyline. Decorating a mansion is pretty awesome especially since I will never afford to live in one. But in my family we all play this one game and I have already payed over $200 since the first of the year on this game. For this gaming company this I just a raindrop in what they make in a month. I check their monthly revenue They have everything in their product that is lacking in yours. I research the company and found out why they soared to the top in little over a year. They studied gaming company’s and read their reviews. They listen to what people wanted in a game and incorporated into their game. Maybe you should listen and incorporate yours. I am sure some of you even played the game especially when you tube is blasting away all time about the game You have a great game but it could be better. If people are excited about playing your game, they’ll tell friends and so on. More will play and more revenue for you. Make the game exciting and achieve able goals. When you can not level up at a reasonable pace what’s the use. Rewards when you level up that’s paltry,what’s the use. The idea is decorate a mansion on less than minimum wages, why play..Zap1234567890Version: 1.37.0

✓ Fun game but ...The most challenging levels still earn the player just one star and the most menial tasks like “playing fetch with the dog” or “introducing the dog to the cat” costs 3 stars. This is so frustrating because one star could take the player a long time to earn. Coins, the currency that allows the player to continue games are also used to speed up projects like repairing the stairs or balcony. I understand this is a way for the game to make money thru in app purchases but I don’t like the ultimatum of “pay up” or wait 7+ hours for a task to be completed. I understand these details are to prolong the game and make it more challenging, but I think the cost of tasks should be more balanced. I also think there should be an option to either claim or postpone free play. Sometimes I will earn 2 hours free play but cannot at that moment sit on my phone for two hours to enjoy it. It’s sort of like play now or else lose what you’ve earned and that’s not fair. Otherwise the game is fun though, there is a fair bit of luck that goes into completely challenging levels, kind of like a slot machine. I have also noticed when I don’t play for a day or two, that difficult level that I was stuck on seems to be easily completely. 🤔.Coco NolaVersion: 1.95.1

✓ Fun and incredibly infuriating!This is a great game, until they set the difficulty on “hard” levels such that it will take anywhere from 8-20 sessions of burning thru your 5 hearts to get thru the level. In that time all of the side events that get you extra lives and coins have expired and you get nothing from them. This has been getting worse as you move up in levels (I am currently around level 650). Totally annoying and frustrating. At the rate this is going It is very possible getting to the end if the game will take years. The whole game can’t be easy - it would be boring if they did, but to make some levels THAT difficult is absolutely ridiculous! This is a follow up to the first review. Nothing has changed at all with what I put in there but have more to add. - One of the rewards that is won from time to time (or can be purchased)is a certain amount of infinite lives. This time is in clock time not game play time. There are times I have won 2 hours of unlimited lives. This sounds great until you realize you only have a significantly shorter period of time to play. If I had purchased this time and then lost it because something comes up that pulls me away from the game and loose the time I bought I would be fuming mad. No way am I spending money with anyone who is going to treat me like that!.Don't like pop upsVersion: 1.60.1

✓ Expensive and tiny rewards and I’ve played 3789 levels...This game starts out fun but very quickly you realise how little you are rewarded for passing any levels or completing challenges. Team challenges are a waste of time as 90% of your team doesn’t play and even if you manage to complete one you get rewarded with 1 firecracker WOOHOO! Complete 50 levels and you get 500 stars which only buys you 5 more moves in a level or 3 firecrackers. The amount of levels required to get a piece of furniture or paint a wall or any task borders on the ridiculous. Complete 2 levels just to talk to the builder, landscaper or even the delivery guy is just a rip off. I don’t mind buying extra stars or other things but the price is so expensive and if you think you can get anywhere in this game without forking out money THINK AGAIN. I’m on level 3789 so I’m giving you a honest opinion of someone that has played this game a lot. I actually find the game repetitive and very boring now..1blond1Version: 1.66.0

✓ DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!!!I wish a negative star rating was an option for this awful game. The game is fun for the first few puzzles, sort of. The version I downloaded looks nothing like what was advertised. Puzzles are fun and challenging at first, then quickly become IMPOSSIBLE to solve, unless of course you pay tons of $$$ for upgrades. Otherwise, if you cannot solve a puzzle, you cannot move forward. Upgrades become EXPENSIVE FAST as you may even need to use several expensive upgrades just to complete one level, earn one star and try to make progress to the next puzzle. If you do pour money into this bottomless pit of crap to solve a puzzle, what does that earn you in the game? Nothing. One puzzle solved equals one star. Everything you do in the game costs at least two, nearly impossible to earn stars. The money grubbing jerks who created this game are counting on you, their player and customer, being enough of a moron to dump thousands into a game where you are barely even able to play and make progress. If you've seen the cute ads for this game where you get to decorate a home, build a garden, that's all BS. You will not get to do this part of the game without solving hundreds of puzzles. I've solved 40 and all I have to show in the game is a partially decorated living room. Wow... Epic fail. AVOID CRAPPY GAMES LIKE THIS. BETTER (even free) OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE!!!.Mishka789103Version: 1.54.0

✓ Deceptive advertising and gameplayFrom other games in-game ads I found this game. It is NOT at all like the ads. It is a typical match 3 game where you earn stars to ‘buy’ what you have to accomplish in order to advance. That part is all well and fine when you actually start playing, but again, NOT at all like the ads lead you to believe. The real reason I give this 2 stars is because in the mid 20’s levels you have to break crates that a wind up mouse is hiding in. This mouse moves to the next nearest crate when you break it, moves off the map entirely when there are no more crates. WRONG! When you are down to the last mouse, when you are down to your last available move, you break the crate and the mouse should go away OFF THE SCREEN because it has nowhere to go and you progress in the game. Nope! It ducks down into the crate and pops back out like that move didn’t matter. Can’t pass the level now, start over. This is rigged. During these levels long before I’m close to running out of moves, the very same move eliminates the mouse. Get down to actually beating the level and the game has its own rules to keep you from winning. I’ve replicated this very thing over 11 times across 4 different levels. Obvious cheating trying to make you spend money to continue. Treat me like a dupe and the game is forgotten about. Make an actual game that isn’t rigged and I’d HAPPILY pay the Devs money for their work..PCGamerguyVersion: 1.35.2

✓ So disappointedI have been playing this game for a long time and until recently have been enjoying it. I now only get hard games and takes forever to get out. I had the Japanese tea garden and barely won any games to be able to finish. My progress didn’t even make half way. I am not spending money on extra time when I’m not able to win the games. If the developers want people to spend money they should make the games easier, not have to spend stars on such ridiculous things as answering the door and having more choice in decor. Need to get their act together and stop being so greedy. When you get bonus rooms, quite often you can’t finish them unless you pay a lot of money. You always need at least one extra go to finish a game! If you finish bonus rooms within the allotted time, it should let you then go back to a previous unfinished room. Would make it more interesting and worthwhile. During this pandemic when people are not working and don’t have spare money you realise which developers are kind giving so much bonus time and which ones are just plain greedy. This game is the latter..LouLou has a viewVersion: 1.71.2

✓ Deceptive adI got this app based on an ad that posed a challenge of what tool to use to fix things in a kitchen. This game, after a day of play, has nothing of this kind of challenge. It’s candy crush with pillows, and rewards of home decorating choices, secret diary and hunky carpenter. If you’re a stereotype female, you’ll love it..PragmaSynesisVersion: 1.38.0

✓ Too frustratingOkay, so I've downloaded this game multiple times *because I kept deleting it out of anger* saying I will not lose, but the levels are too hard to beat as you get better. I'm sure you would do nothing if one person was saying this *no offence* but as you can see, multiple people have written the same thing over and over again and you guys have done nothing about it.I’m sure most people end up giving up at the library. But on the positive side the layout of the house is exquisite and so old fashioned and at the same time very modern and sheikh. I hope you can take to account the response I have given and the other reviewers because we are all just asking for the same thing. Thank you..Just advik hereVersion: 1.126.1

✓ Fun, but not what is advertisedI saw the ads, and thought that this game will be interesting yet easy. Maybe wondering how many rooms or houses I will get to decorate, however that isnt the case whatsoever. It is advertised to be a fun decorating game where you fix things and or add them. But not in the game, where it is a stupid puzzle game which you solve puzzles, which are sort of displayed in candy crush, and you only get a star out of it if you finish the level. You only get one star, and there is no way to change that. Further on the tasks take up more and more stars, where you will be playing all day just to get three tasks done. I suggest maybe making some levels give you more stars, such as 2-3 per difficult level. I also suggest making less ‘in app purchases’ or lower the prices because just for a couple thousand coins doesnt need to cost €4,-. Maybe it is just me, but I have read the other reviews and I can tell you that they agree with me..Jaetje ScheetjeVersion: 1.41.0

✓ Boredom killerThis game is ok, they often make the harder lvls so hard that you just get bored and stop coming back to it, it’s no fun when you Simply stop passing levels for days and weeks on end! Even using items doesn’t always mean you get part the level.Poison33_IvyVersion: 1.150.0

✓ Latest updates.So after playing this game since nearly the beginning, it has turned from a really good fun game to play, to one that now seems more interested in making money than a great game, the difficulty seems to have been ramped up to force people into spending money, and at a time with global economies struggling. The game developers seem to have got cheaper and cheaper, we used to get 4 coins for a rainbow at the end of the level, 3 for a big bomb and so on, you used to get 500 coins when using up 50 stars on furniture, now all you get is a chair for and environment you are no longer playing! The biggest issue is the developers think we must be daft and think we won’t notice, so am I right in thinking that we should pay for the privilege to watch adverts, make it either, if you pay for coins etc no more adverts..Pete@NinaVersion: 1.142.0

✓ DisappointingNot at all what was advertised. Seen a lot of ads for this game on other games and it looked like you could clean each room individually but it was a farce to cover up a game just like every other such as candy crush. Deleted..MynameiseloiseVersion: 1.38.0

✓ Needs work...To start with I was really enjoying this game, I love the concept of renovating a house and getting to choose the decor, etc... but unfortunately there are several things that let it down. I agree with other reviewers, while I understand that as a free game developer you need to make money, I completely disagree with making levels virtually impossible to win without spending real money. Why not make your game eg. £3.99-£7.99 instead of free, with the option to buy power-ups to help you, but don’t make ludicrously difficult levels to make us spend money. I honestly don’t know how anyone is meant to finish the whole mansion. I’ve been stuck on level 54 for days and refuse to spend anymore real money. It’s a shame, I was hoping that this game wouldn’t turn out to be yet another money grabber, as I honestly was enjoying it. Another good game made unplayable..RachelLou84Version: 1.20.0

✓ FrustratingWhat seemed like a promising game to turn to when passing a pleasant hour, has instead turned into a frustrating nightmare. My first gripe is the pretty horrible colour schemes that don’t seem to match. Very limited choices of colours and designs of carpet, wallpaper and furniture. I can forgive that, but it’s the difficulty of some levels that makes the game virtually unplayable. If you have limited power boosts and coins, then you’re pretty much stuffed. I can appreciate “challenging” levels, but I’ve been stuck on level 77 for two days! I have to collect certain things, including letters, I tend to just have one more letter to go, then I run out of lives. I can’t play on for 500 coins because I’ve only got 200. I have used all my power boosts, so there’s pretty much nothing I can do now. Playing the same level over and over again for days on end is seriously messing with my mind. So, for the sake of my sanity, I’m deleting the game. No game is worth this amount of frustration. It makes you ill..SweetJasmine*Version: 1.44.3

✓ False advertising.Nothing like the ad showed. Way stupider..Megan8637\Version: 1.34.1

✓ It’s ok.....This game is pretty fun but it is pretty boring at the same time. Although there aren’t many ads like other games (if there were this would be a 1 star game) there isn’t much to the game it’s self. Sure the game is challenging and fun but it can be boring like u said already. One thing I really don’t like is that to upgrade even one thing you have to complete a level each time and it gets really annoying and the levels get really hard and I can’t seem to get past level 41 so maybe make the levels easier. I e had this game for about 3 months and haven’t played it that much because I either loose all of my lives and I have to wait or I just can’t pass a level and I eventually just get BORED. So maybe they should upgrade a few things and make some minor changes but other than that it’s pretty fun. I would recommend this game if you wanna waste some time but if your looking for something to get attached to DONT DOWNLOAD THIS GAME. On other thing is that the ads for this game are nothing like the actual game. Like company if you want people to play your game, give them an ad that is like the game, like dude. Other than that thank you for reading this, this is longer than I thought it would be. And I’m not giving a fake report on any of this, this is all true..❤️♑️Ava♑️❤️Version: 1.63.4

✓ Joy well and truly sucked outThis used to be a great game for filling a little time, quite relaxing and enough of a challenge to keep it interesting. Sadly, it appears that greed has got the better of the developer. Levels have become ridiculously difficult to pass, introducing a level of boredom. It’s not challenging, it's tedious, as you just know the algorithm will eventually relent and allow you to pass it, but the developer hopes you’ll cave in before then, and buy coins to help you move on. In addition, rewards are being diminished almost daily. Where you used to get an hour of free play for achieving a goal, now it’s 15 minutes if you’re lucky. Sometimes it’s just an ugly piece of furniture or rug that I’m pretty sure most players do not crave. A while ago they introduced ‘events’ for which you could choose to pay to enhance the game with more lives and other rewards, around once a month. I don’t mind paying the £5.99, as across a month that isn’t a lot. But, the changes outlined above seem designed to fleece players of even more. It’s plain greed. The joy of the game has been sucked out of it. I strongly suggest the developers reviews things and thinks about what the players might like, rather than their shareholders, otherwise the pretty decent income they had before all these negative changes, will surely drift away as more and more of give up playing out of sheer boredom..Cariad62Version: 1.144.0

✓ The advertising of the game is different then the real game!The add is Showing things to fix and it is cool but its not the same thing as the game! The real game is ANOTHER match 3game! What is this? False advertising on a free game?! This is ridiculous the game is just a copy of too many of those match 3 games! It takes forever to earn stars and decorate the house they force you to spend those stars on things that dont relate to the decoration like playing with the cat....Please advertise the real game in the future stop fooling people with false advertising! Its not a fix objects game its a match 3 game!.Charmed44Version: 1.45.0

✓ Latest versions terrible - unstable and now cannot access at allThe latest two versions of this game mean that I cannot now play it - it appears that there is a problem playing it on a number of older devices/devices with 1GB RAM or less. Lost the extra lives I purchased 2 weeks ago as I was thrown out of the game multiple times at the very beginning of a game loading and during a game but lives were still deducted. Game crashed constantly. Lost lives sent to me by the team. I was advised to stop playing the game to prevent further losses. Have asked for refund of this purchase - no response to this. Was sent an hour of unlimited lives as compensation but can’t access the game to claim those! I was hoping this would sorted in the latest version, released today but it is not. I cannot now access the game at all. I have been advised that this is still being looked into. Also I have been advised that the support team cannot remove me from the team I am in, even though I cannot play the game -recently there were team events but I couldn’t contribute to those as I couldn’t play due to these issues. I thought it would be best for me to come out of the team but apparently it is not possible. I cannot access the game so I cannot remove myself from that team. Game was really good before the recent updates - extremely disappointed that I cannot play. I’m not in a position to purchase a new device just to play this game!.5saucyVersion: 1.53.1

✓ False advertisingThere’s nothing wrong with the game itself, it’s simply the false advertising that annoys me. The adds seem to promote a completely different game..I'm really bad at nicknamesVersion: 1.38.0

✓ Not worth playingI’m majoring in interior design in college, so I thought this game would be good practice. I found an ad for this game where you didn’t have to play any of the “candy crush levels” and it was very fun. So I decided I would download it. When first opening the app and being bombarded with endless amounts of the seller trying to get me to buy their coins, I became very frustrated. The game is free so promoting spending money on it is ridiculous. I played the first few levels like a breeze. They started very easy and I was honestly enjoying the game. I was a little upset that you only had 3 choices for furniture and such to pick from, but I didn’t mind it that much. When the levels started to get harder I realized that they kept taking away how many moves you get. Being a candy crush expert (over level 1,000) I though it was extremely to difficult to beat the levels in this game. There is definitely not enough moves to complete some of the levels without buying their coins, power ups, etc. Which to me is really shallow considering this is a “free” game. I did end up spending $0.99 on this game, and I regret it completely. This game is not worth any time. I will most certainly be deleting it. And to the makers of the game you should really be ashamed of yourselves for just wanting money, money, and more money. Don’t download this game at all it’s not worth any time at all!.K777777777777777Version: 1.45.0

✓ It’s okThis game is NOTHING like you see in the adds that pop up in other games/apps. It’s pretty boring & slow. I was expecting something quite different from the adds I had seen. Not a game I’m going to have around for a long time. Been playing for about 3 days & it’s already boring..Goldmoondlb99Version: 1.57.1

✓ Tired!!!Good game but sick and tired of it always cutting off. The more i update the more it cuts off and can't even play..PatchfidgetlulVersion: 1.42.0

✓ Love the concept but..I love the concept and unlike some other games like this I feel I’m completing more on the House. However the levels are getting harder and harder (I’m only on level 230ish and have spent over 15 lives on 1 level and still haven’t cracked it!) I feel like the developers should take into account how many lives you used for a level and give out a ratio of stars based on that. Used 1-3 lives = 1 star, 4-6 lives = 2 stars and so on and so forth so it’s worth it after being stuck on a level for a day and a bit!! Plus the wastage of lives on such small tasks (aka making potion 2 stars, person drinks 1 star and you drink 1 star, for nothing to happen!) it’s frustrating but here’s hoping for a change soon!!.Tegs10124Version: 1.25

✓ Advert and levels😡This game is alright but is very similar to homescapes and the only reason I got the game was because it looked good on the advert but I was disappointed when I started to play the game and I realised that it was nothing like the advert so you either need to change the game which would be very hard or change the advert. Also some of the levels are very easy and some are very very difficult I have had the game for a few weeks now and I am still stuck on level 19 and not being able to do that level is stopping me from playing the game. The levels only give you 1 star every time no matter what how difficult they are and it cost way to much to get more moves at the end of a level when you fail and you only get 5 so they are not very helpful anyway and looking at the amount of moves that I get when I begin a level I wonder how am I supposed to complete this level with only let’s say 20 moves it very nearly impossible.😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬.Jazz RiseVersion: 1.37.0

✓ Fun but too hard for kidsStarts off fun but some of the levels are stupid hard. It makes it unfun. I continue to play because I enjoy trying to finish fixing up the house. Having to do the same level over 10 times stinks though.AudSquad03Version: 1.10.0

✓ GarbageNothing like the ad.NacknakmVersion: 1.38.0

✓ I was obsessed but...I’m on level 115 and I think it’s a bit harsh to have to pay 5 stars to put books on the selves, I do love this game and my and my friend are both hooked! Say this the time to wait for stars it rather long and although the levels are hard I find it challenging and makes me want to try again and again but the stars are a really issue for me I don’t think it should take 5 whole stars to put books on selves especially when the levels are as hard as they are that could potentially take hours of trying to just place books on selves. I really like this game and as a avid player of matching games I find this one the most interesting and satisfying to play but the pay off you get the more you play dulls the game I don’t feel motivated to spend my time playing and completing levels to pay 5 stars to do something -in my opinion- that should only take 1-2 stars. I think you should consider making the time between hearts smaller and reconsider how many stars you allocate per job..TheonetruefergoVersion: 1.35.2

✓ NEW VISUAL UPDATE….HORRIBLE!!I’ve been a DAILY player for going over 4 to 5 years now,and I have a strong team of 30 of us all daily players,loving this game for our own many reasons. Always rated Matchington as 100% better than the famous candy crush! BUT with this new visual update, not only have you changed the bombs, you’ve also changed the books etc making us all DETEST THESE CHANGES!! After learning how to play, now it’s almost like we have to RELEARN how to play as the books (for example) are different colours\style and now don’t know how many “hits” they need to disappear!! And the BUGS in this new update…. My game keeps freezing,even though I have a fast home business wifi,so NOT fault on my side, and twice now my clock-chickens have been INVISIBLE and I’ve had to forfeit the game, losing my mega gold bomb!! PLEASE GO BACK TO ORIGINAL FORMAT!! Or, like old candy crush players, WE WILL ALL LEAVE MATCHINGTON TOO due to the childish visual effects.MentalNUTasylumVersion: 1.151.0

✓ FALSE ADVERTISINGNot like the ad at all..🧂🧂Version: 1.38.0

✓ Billed Twice on more than several occasionsI actually enjoyed this game and found it relaxing. Then I started noticing they were billing me twice for a few purchases. I’ve asked for a refund and no one gets back to me. Too bad, I thought it was fun until this..JasgrrlVersion: 1.84.5

✓ BIRD HELL!!!I’ve been playing this game for awhile now & really like it...when I actually get to decorate & play to achieve something. I totally agree with all the other reviews about wasting time & points earned on trivial things: Greet Edna, pick up Rex’s flyers etc. We want to decorate!! So I thought all that was bad, now I’m at a point where there are no tasks to complete & all it says is “tasks coming soon”. So in the meantime you are put into a “bonus” area of playing this game. You play a level & collect birds!! You can’t advance, decorate, oh yeah, and you don’t get any points for completing your level that you can use later to do tasks. It tells you you will win prizes in this bonus limbo of BIRD HELL where you’ve collected so many freaking birds that it’s like a horror movie. So what are the great prizes you get? Bird statues!!! Are you kidding me?!?! After they finally make more levels/tasks, you can continue as usual, but they only make around 40 new levels so before you know it you’re back in bird hell!! So I’m basically playing for nothing right now and wasting money & time as you cannot even collect points for future play. I’m getting ready to uninstall this as I’m in bird hell for my 3rd time now & it’s just ridiculous. Whoever thought of this bird hell limbo is insane I’m sure!! Did I mention I now hate birds?!?!.QB SANDYVersion: 1.59.1

✓ PoorThey make the levels very challenging. I am at level 71. It’s very hard to earn stars and then when you do, in order to keep playing or open a new room you need to WASTE those hard earned stars to “play with cat” or “jump on bed” or “read diary”. Real reason I downloaded this game was NOT to waste my time playing a cheap version of candy crush but was to interior design. Big waste of time and will be deleting unless it is updated properly where you can design and decorate the mansion and not waste all your time playing to win those hard earned stars only to have them completely wasted on things other than interior design..Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk💋Version: 1.28.0

✓ Too slow movingEarning money is really difficult. Don’t mind this if the rewards were better. But making any progress in this game takes a long time, and after several failed attempts at earning coins you get locked out for 5 minutes. Which makes me lose interest especially when had I successfully won the level all I get is one gold coin to spend on one ugly item in the mansion. And theres no sign of the games in the preview, which is what made me download. So goodbye Mansion game. It’s a delete from me..PaularanoploVersion: 1.33.0

✓ Keeps crashing...Game constantly crashes, before, during & after the levels. It also crashes when you make a purchase so you don’t get the coins you paid for! When it crashes after you win a level, you don’t get the coins either! When it crashes before you play a level, you lose a life & any power ups you may have used. Have contacted the developers via the app, but they do not respond. This game is now becoming unplayable..Plum63Version: 1.46.2

✓ Good app but can be betterI downloaded this game because I thought it was like the add, where you fix the house by picking the correct tools. I was really disappointed to find out that the game is nothing like it. I still enjoy the game but I wish it was like the add. I kept playing because I thought that there would be a mini game like the add, but so far no. Could you please tell me if there is a game like the advertisement or if you choose to update the game and add he mini game, I will vomit to play this game though. Also, I’m stuck in level 41! I can’t beat it! I have tried it about 30 times and no I’m not exaggerating. When I “played the board game” I got unlimited life’s for an hour and I tried about 20 times. I might quit just because of that level. You should make a skip level option, obviously it would be expensive. Another thing, if your stuck in a level and have less that 500 coins, you can’t hit the continue playing button because you have no money. I think you should make a way to get money with out paying real money other than the daily reward. Lastly I think some tasks take to many stars, like get nightstands. Seriously just one will work. I hope this review help and I hope you will make those changes..Bluestar4535Version: 1.35.2

✓ AnnoyingI like playing this game sometimes when I’m extremely bored or sitting around waiting for someone/something. But it is annoying because they make it hard for you to win the level hoping you use up all your coins so you can buy more! I’ve only spent on coins once! I will never waist my money on this game again! It’s funny because once you do spend all your coins or money that’s when it gets easier. I’ve had to replay a level over 10 times before I beat it because I refused to spend my coins/money to then only get 30 coins! Not only that but the actual part that’s fun building the house and rooms takes forever! Why do they charge 500 coins for only 5 more moves that isn’t enough to beat the level and then takes forever to win your coins back!!?? I want to fix the kitchen already why does this take so long?! And all the moves I still have left when I beat the level early should be transferred over into the next level or given extra coins! I want at least 100 coins per level. If I had a child I wouldn’t let this play this scam of a game. Not only will they become addicted but very frustrated, angry and sad! And probably cry for me to buy them coins! This is not a good game for children! Dear miss Tiffany! Fix your little game because it’s LAME! And it would also be nice if every level wasn’t the same freaking thing over and over with the same shapes and colors!!!!.Ren WatVersion: 1.104.0

✓ Love the game— but...I have been playing this game for a long time now.. I have made it to the island. And though I do sometimes get frustrated at some of the levels that take forever to get past- I do eventually get past them. My “but” has to do with you most resent update. Supposedly we should be earning stickers to get Halloween decorations, but even though my screen shows that I am in Halloween mode ... no stickers... no decorations??? What’s up with that? It has been 2 days since the update and still nothing? I would also like to say that I would like to see more decoration options - choosing between orange, blah brown, and ugly green is not really a choice. It’s like picking the presidential candidate that makes you want to vomit the least. And enough with the flowers already... I have like 25 different flower options ( and like 7 are slightly different cacti- 6 different fruit trees ( 2 barely different orange and 2 slightly different lemon). And to be honest, I am tired of spending stars on flower pots - I would never put so many flowers in my house, let alone in one room. Maybe flowers are the easiest thing for you developers to create for the game, or maybe you just have flower crazy developers, but enough is enough. It like for every piece of furniture, I have to add 3 flower pots.... it is starting to make me not want to play..Noone2013Version: 1.52.0

✓ Too hard to get starsWhen I first played the game I thought oh this is gonna be fun but then when I kept going I noticed that the levels were getting harder and harder and harder and it was sad for me because I thought that this game would be more of a designing decorating game more than A Game where you have to figure out how to get all the stars and I’ve been stuck on the same level for like weeks now and I just want to design and I’m working on the garden and it takes like three stars I think just to clear a tree and that means I’m playing the really hard matching game three times and then having to go back and get more stars I mean if they’re going to do that then they should at least make it easier and have the stars be given more like maybe like are your friends can mail you stars or some thing like you have to like maybe it would just be like go design you don’t have to like pay for anything you don’t have to do anything you can just go design that is what I wish it would do and I’m probably going to delete Matchington mansion if this does not get fixed Matchington mansion is a great game actually it’s not very good but I just think that the star thing is the most annoying thing ever and for the makers of Matchington you’re going to need to step up your game or else you’re not gonna get any reviews nobody’s gonna want to play your game.YaysasrarVersion: 1.78.1

✓ Don’t waste your time.This is a good game but frustrating to progress through as I’m nearly on level 300 and I’ve only been able to complete 3 main rooms and a few things in the garden. Activities like training a dog or cat and making tea for the neighbour just seem pointless and a large amount of these activities take 3 stars or more, which is even more frustrating when each level is very difficult pretty much straight away. Understandably games shouldn’t be easy, but they shouldn’t seem pointless either. I will probably die before I finish another room. I am quite regretful that I feel as though I need to delete the app as I gave it an honest chance but I’ve had enough. This game is a money-grabbing, anger inducing waste of time with little to no satisfaction..ElleminatiVersion: 1.26.4

✓ MehThis game is good, but very illogical. It takes 2 stars to literally pat a bed, and yet it takes 1 star to change all the wallpaper in a huge room. Also, 500 coins just to get 5 extra moves if you lose is ridiculously overpriced, It should be 200 for 5 extra moves. Please do some work to make the game more fun by fixing these issues..MattThePlebVersion: 1.35.2

✓ Fun game, but needs immense improvementI’ve been playing this game for over a week now and it is really fun and enjoyable! BUT,,, I’ve read other reviews saying their on level 200 and on i know I’m only on level 29 but I’m stuck and can’t get past this level. Each level (I’m assuming for much higher levels as well) get extremely hard and frustrating for only one star just to have to waste it on something like greet the neighbours or jump on the bed. I used to play Homescapes but I deleted it because it was too hard and frustrating and was hoping this would be the easier, more reward full version but I was clearly wrong. A MESSAGE DIRECTLY FOR PRODUCERS Please, if your going to make this game better in anyway here are my thoughts; make the levels easier and much more reward full and please don’t make us waste precious stars on jumping on the bed or greeting the neighbours!! Please also make it an easier and quicker process in finishing the mansion, and my thoughts are that once someone has finished their mansion they then are able to go and chose a whole new mansion out of a small selection to then start evaluating on.😊 I really hope that I don’t get to the point where I delete this game all because it’s too hard, I really like it except for its flaws......DO NOT GETTTVersion: 1.32.0

✓ Impossible to play at the moment**Update: game crashes almost 100% of the time now, since the Halloween update. A pity as this was such a good game!** Firstly, if you’ve been intrigued by the advert featuring pouring water on a fire and fixing windows etc, be warned: NONE of that features in this game. It’s a standard match-three game (like Candy Crush) but you earn stars for completing levels and can ‘spend’ those stars doing up your house. It’s fairly pleasant but like all these types of games, you’ll come up against ‘impossible’ levels which can be infuriating. But they’re never THAT hard, and if you play enough you’ll find a way through. Very refreshing after some of Candy Crush’s and Bejewelled’s levels. Oh, and some of the furniture choices available to you to decorate your house are AWFUL - things even my chintzy grandmother would turn her nose up at because they are too chintzy! But it’s not my real house, so hey ho....K(fbelbVersion: 1.52.0

✓ GillToday my 11year old granddaughter just need 1 star to finish level 109 so you can a amazing her joy when she got 4hours free goes but at the end of the time she was in tears because she had only reached level 111 people will be leaving the game when you only win 2 stars in 4 hours because you're game is cutting out before you can play the levels I have just updated your game and once again it cuts out your seriously need to talk to the company that you are dealing with or change company's cue once again I have to complain I have been stuck on level 891for a month even after downloading a new level & a new mini game it still keeps cutting out I have spoken to my friends and they saying the same so please could you see what the problem is because beforehand people will stop playing your game thank your or the last two weeks I have tried to play level 564 but it will not load please could you look into it thank you.Cuddles 25Version: 1.29.0

✓ Ok but issuesEnjoyed starting this game but it quickly became apparent that you needed to use power ups to progress. Then you needed 3 stars for really basic things which could take a while to accumulate, as games got pretty hard early on. Unless you are prepared to spend money or are an extremely analytical brain to complete a game, stay away. Then game wouldn't open properly on my device which could be an iOS issue on iPad as updates seem to have stopped coming through so not enough grunt to run the game. Quite disappointed as enjoyed this one..PoochonVersion: 1.24.2

✓ Ok game but some issuesWhat is the point of designating a level as ‘hard’ and giving no extra reward for completing it? ‘Hard’ levels should gain the player 2 stars, not 1. As others have said, there are frustrations with this game - the limited furniture and wall/floor coverings; the limited time rooms that take so long to collect lightbulbs for; the blatant way that players are expected to purchase additional items in order to make progress. The premise is great but the reality doesn’t deliver..Arg206Version: 1.54.0

✓ Like many others : false advertisement / copy of a better game :HomescapesDon’t download this game, go more to homescapes. Why? 1/ they show a false advertisement with NOTHING in common with the real game. Very disrespectful for their users / customers. 2/ pale copy of a great game. They just tend to make money upon homescapes , doing the same game but harder for getting people to pay for lives. 3/ the game is not well done, so much harder and frustrating than homescapes and the scenario is in so much way bad. Please delete this game or don’t download it. Just pass your way..HunterofphotoVersion: 1.39.0

✓ Not what I expectedMisleading ad, Im 50 something match games in and am still fixing up the first couple of rooms and not even in the way depicted on the ad. Levels are over explained initially and then become difficult very quickly, which is annoying when winning these mini games is how you earn stars in order to complete the tasks required to ‘fix’ the mansion. I’ll be deleting this game as I’m bored already, I may as well be playing candy crush..Misty_ucpsVersion: 1.32.0

✓ Fun gameLove the game. But the only thing is that when you win a level, it does not pay enough. But I still love the game.KkkklokVersion: 1.147.0

✓ InterestingI first downloaded the app due to ads in another game. It is nothing like the ads (like you’re not picking tools to fix stuff, you just get to do the actions available using stars you earn solving puzzles). I enjoy solving tough puzzles and completing rooms; but the irrelevant side quests irritate me to no end. Currently Rex is being the Butler. I know Rex is the Butler. My only option is to spend a ton of stars hiring him, getting back things he swipes, etc. I’m here to decorate not stop swiper from swiping in Dora the explorer... I could have finished maybe two additional rooms if it weren’t for irrelevant side quests. I think it would be helpful if we could turn that part of the game off and just decorate the mansion if we want. You should also get more stars for solving more difficult puzzles (especially if you’re going to drum up the number of stars one needs to complete a task). Sometimes I enjoy the game but more often than not I’m frustrated about it not progressing more quickly. Once I beat over 70 levels in a row in the 400s and barely made a dent in what needs to be done. I would also like the option to make Tiffany go away, she’s useless and annoying. I was wondering how far I have to get to explore the cave behind the house or dig up what I assume will be pirate treasure under the palm trees that form an X..Kasey8315Version: 1.35.2

✓ Please stop making me play with the cat!This game was fun at first. The levels were challenging, but not impossible. However, now that I'm up to level 75, the game is getting quite frustrating. Some levels are so difficult that you either have to play for days before you get a passable board or purchase lots of coins in order to buy power ups or extra moves. Then, once you finally do clear a level, you get a pathetic 30-50 coins (meaning you have to pass dozens of levels just to purchase one power up) and 1 star. Worst of all, after decorating the initial rooms, almost all of your tasks involve answering the door or playing with the cat. Seriously, I've wasted 10 coins in a row doing nothing but getting the cat yarn to play with, rescuing it from the suit of armor, buying it shampoo, and giving it a bath. And none of these tasks are optional. I haven't decorated anything in days, which is what I downloaded the game for in the first place! I see lots of complaints about this in the reviews, but judging by the developer's responses, it doesn't seem like they are addressing the problem. I will probably delete the game soon since, frankly, I hate cats and the game is quite simply boring at this point. Add edit: Another issue: I have contacted customer support several times to report an issue, and there is never a response. This game doesn't seem to receive any developer support at all..WriterleVersion: 1.6.0

✓ AnnoyingEndless matching games and hardly any renovation takes place, e.g play a matching game in order to place 1 lamp in the mansion. Renovations choices are mostly ugly so very unsatisfying results when you do actually get to finish a room. Game is similar to what is advertised but mostly misleading. Best thing I can say is nice graphics and no ads..J M WestVersion: 1.128.3

✓ Not what I thought it would beThe advertisement for this game made it seem like a completely different type of game. Come to find out it’s more like candy crush. That being said I enjoy the game and play it quite often my biggest complaint is the fact that I would like to be able to use my stars to have animal control come pick up that cat. I don’t like animals in my house and I don’t know why anyone would want one in their mansion. I don’t like having to do tasks such as feed the cat or buy it a bed. I wanted the game for the remodeling aspect not to pretend I have a cat. To me that’s just a nightmare. I know some people adore animals so I think it should just be an option type situation. I actually switched games to whichever one has a butler fixing up his parents house and literally deleted it once I got to where an animal showed up at the door. I switched back to this game because I thought I was done with the cat now that I’m on level 132. But guess one I’m not done with the cat, now it’s time to “read a book on cat tricks” or whatever it said. I’m thinking I’m going to delete this game now and download something else more soothing that deals with remodel or even coloring. I play games to unwind. The animal aspect is just an annoyance and stress to me to even think about..ArianalwVersion: 1.38.0

✓ Used to be fun, but now it just aggravates meI really enjoyed playing the game at first. It was something I could do easily in my spare time and it was fun. But, I am to the point now that I am about done playing it altogether. I understand that the levels all can’t be super easy and I don’t expect it but when I am stuck on the same level for days at a time and I can’t figure out a way around it without spending real money on it, it makes me just want to uninstall it and be done with it. Maybe, in the future don’t go overboard trying to figure out how hard you can make these levels because you only reward people who play 1 star for each board completed whether they are a regular board, hard, or very hard. An when we have to buy stuff for the mansion, half the time you take 2 and 3 stars for some of the things which I don’t think is right. People spend a lot of time on some boards and then they finally get a star or two and they have to spend 2 stars on something dumb that we really don’t want to spend them on. I mean, if it were up to me, I would not be spending stars just to greet people, or to pick up fliers. We should be given a choice whether we want to greet people and waste our stars or keep our stars for more important things. An Why not reward people 1 star for a regular board, 2 stars for the hard rounds, and 3 for the very hard rounds?! That would definitely give me more incentive to play..\cool cidVersion: 1.94.0

✓ All about the in app purchasesI have had this game for a couple of weeks and being a fan of candy crush immediately liked it. I am not bad at these types of games being in level 550 odd of candy crush so not an amateur. As you work through the levels and look at the complexity of them and then glance to the left and see the paltry number of moves that are given to complete them it very soon becomes apparent that this is all about the money as mid 20’s on the moves compared to what is expected to complete it is whilst not impossible has to go very well and get a lot of dynamite to make a dent. Of course the easiest way to do this is to pay up front or add more moves and I am sad to say I have done a few times. I did contact the company through the ‘contact us’ section but got no reply twice just directed to the frequently asked questions. So in summary a good game but be prepared to have deep pockets as taking 25+ goes to complete a level soon gets tiresome when not wanting to chuck loads of money especially as looking at the size of the mansion there must be some levels to complete and as i am at 140 ish I have lost the inclination to proceed.Shonky808Version: 1.35.2

✓ Too hard to progressWhile I do like the game it’s impossible to progress without spending a ton of money! It takes forever to earn stars and they get used too easy: 1 star to talk to a person 1 to answer the door, another to inspect something, then 1 to talk to the person again.... too many stars! And the coins you earn are totally unfair. Sometimes it costs me 4-5 thousand coins to get through a level only to end up earning 24 coins??? Come on developers....make it a bit better. Currently looking for a similar game that’s more fair coin wise which is a shame given I do like this game :(.Lisawrnz1Version: 1.45.0

✓ PLEASE fix the crashingThis is/was my favorite game. I am/was truly addicted. A couple weeks ago, the game started crashing rather often. I reported it but nothing improved. Then in the last update, the game severely broke. The game now crashes when entering the game, trying to load a level, during a level, after a level (if you’re lucky enough to make it to the end w/o crashing). Every time this happens, you lose a life. I don’t have a life as it is, I don’t need a game rubbing it in. All kidding aside, this game is now 100% unplayable. I’m not the only one with this issue. It’s not me. I updated the game, my iOS, rebooted, freed up a ton of space, entered the game w/o an internet connection to make sure it wasn’t my connection, I’m not running any other apps, etc. I sent another support ticket in a couple few days ago and haven’t heard anything back. If it’s because it’s too graphics heavy, add an option to reduce graphics in the settings. The game will just keep getting more and more graphics heavy the higher level you get. Either fix this critical bug or just give us the option of reducing the graphics so you aren’t disappointing loyal players. The game is completely unplayable the way it is. I’m not even being dramatic. It’s literally impossible now with the crashing. Please don’t let this game crash and burn. Pun intended. If/when the game gets fixed, so we can actually play it, I’ll come and revisit my rating/review..Em PatheticVersion: 1.48.3

✓ I really like this game but…I am really enjoying the game so far. I love getting the stars and stuff but I don’t like it when in the tasks big it asks you to open a secret box and stuff like that. Personally I love designing things so when I saw this game advertised I thought that it would let me design a mansion but instead the game is asking me to do things like open chests and read secret letters. When you do get the chance to do a little bit of designing the choices aren’t that great and are extremely old fashioned. I think that the developers should create an app where you can design your own mansion without having to pass levels and stuff like that. I think that this new app should have modern choices for the furniture and decoration and should let you personalise every little detail e.g lights, decoration, carpet, garden. Thank you for taking the time to read my feedback. I think the app is really good but just not really what I had in mind from the image the advert was giving me x.Motherf***er14Version: 1.49.0

✓ Some changes needed 😐I actually really like👍this game and it’s really addictive but it would be better if you made some of these⬇️ changes. My main complaint🙁 is that there should be a variety of games to unlock stars ⭐️. I was on this game all the time ⏰ during the first week I got this but after that I didn’t play it as much because I got bored 😑 of the mini games. There should be at least three3️⃣ different games. Also if you gave an extra star you should be allowed to design🖌your own furniture because I don’t like any of the beds 🛏. I also think that you shouldn’t have lives to lose because if you lose them all just playing five5️⃣games you can’t do anything on the app until you wait to get your lives back. Overall I think 💭 it is a good game but with these changes it would make Matchington Mansions🏢 a wonderful🤩game. I hope you consider 🤔these ideas and improve your app📱..•someoneVersion: 1.35.2

✓ The ad is completely different than the gameDon’t waste your time.Jcm7301991Version: 1.38.0

✓ Matchington Manor.Not a bad game. A lot of the levels are too hard and time consuming. Would rather spend more time on the house part of the game. Using stars to do a task multiple times is frustrating and unmotivating. When you ‘win’ free time it’s pointless as you can’t pass that level. I’d like to see levels that are easier or more options for extras so one can pass in a timely fashion..NightmarenamezVersion: 1.61.1

✓ Disappointing gameThis game is not what is advertised on advert ‘Save Your House’.Little d13Version: 1.38.0

✓ Not as advertised, and blocked!This is a candy crush-like game. There is nothing about fixing furniture and saving the house from fires, as shown in the ad. Also, I’ve been blocked for weeks on a level, which makes the game not fun. I do not recommend this game..DratacVersion: 1.39.0

✓ It’s too expensive.Have been loving Matchington mansion for a long time, 4400+ levels completed. Recently though I’ve noticed that you need more and more stars to decorate. It used to be, pass a level, do some decorating, now it seems pass three and you get to do some. Clearly they just want to have more expenditure in app. So it’s not a game anymore, it’s a business. It’s a shame. It was a good game, but like all things greedflation is ruining it..PlayddohVersion: 1.142.0

✓ Entertaining at first...It’s a different kind of game as there is a great deal to keep you entertained and I was enjoying it but the further I have progressed I find it less enjoyable and I spend less time on it. I am lvl 823 for example and the mystic is visiting. I understand the need for challenging levels however the levels that aren’t “hard” are just as hard as the normal levels. I don’t have lots of spare cash to throw at the game and I assume lots do but failing repeatedly at a none hard level and getting no bonus from the mystic as a result is not fun. The best I have ever gotten from the mystic is x2 bonus. Might just be me but I doubt it. As an example there’s the colour umbrella and in the entire round there were no purple pieces so it was impossible to even progress and I’ve used 10 lives so far. It’s boring. I will keep the game but will probably just play when I’m waiting for the bus or something when my other games are recharging. Or maybe I’m only one who finds almost every level weighted against me..ReedwandANVersion: 1.42.0

✓ Why is this not like the ad?Seriously? Hate false advertising..Snore kingVersion: 1.38.0

✓ Great game overall but a few downsides..Hello I am writing this review for the fellow about to be players of this game. I discovered this game on an ad in game. I thought the game looked amazing and I immediately went onto the App Store to download it. After downloading I realised that the ad was nothing like the actual game was. The ad showed you freely decorating a house. However I realised that there were tiny tasks for precious stars like calling the carpenter and searching paintings. I am now on lvl 11 but I am told by other reviews that the game gets harder as you get into the 100’s. I am hoping for the creators to change the cost of the less interesting tasks into 100 coins or something like that. Overall, I think that this game needs a few improvements but is great if you are looking for a puzzle, decorating and story game!!! Thankyou very much for taking the time to read my review.ChlotheproVersion: 1.46.2

✓ No mini gamesI’ve played this game for a while now and only ever had one mini game. There’s no option for help on this in the game settings. Also You work so hard for stars and get stuck on levels for days on end. This game isn’t fun anymore..Stirling14Version: 1.136.0

✓ Addictive despite its issuesFor an app that’s advertised as a design game there are way too many side stories that take your time and coins away from actually designing. Wish there was an option to skip them. Especially when it seems impossible to actually complete them (and get the related prize) within the time frames set. Some of the levels are incredibly hard and when it’s taken me days of replaying them to get passed I have ALMOST quit and deleted the app! Wish you got more for the harder puzzles. Also the designers have a weird sense of style - often there isn’t matching items to select when designing your rooms and the result is a mansion that looks full of op shop purchases! In saying all this - the game is still incredibly addictive and I find myself playing every chance I get..FitzquinVersion: 1.113.0

✓ This doesn’t match the adI downloaded this game because I saw an ad for it where it was more of a problem solving game and instead, I discover that it’s just a matching game. Extremely disappointed..Maxie1490Version: 1.37.0

✓ False advertisement and copyrightThis game is nothing the add showed and is just copywrite of candy crush. When you make an add you have to make it true and they didn’t do that. I could easily get a diffrent game that has true advertiments or candy crush and diffrent games. Do not buy whatever you do!!!!!!😡.Gamer73737Version: 1.38.0

✓ New updateI was willing to give the new update a chance by playing it for a while to see if the changes had a negative impact on play. Unfortunately I deleted the option to provide feedback in game as the notifications to do so were annoying. I would prefer the previous version to the new one as the number listed for how many tiles or books that need to be collected to complete a level are not accurate. For example, it will say I need to collect 20 books, there are far more than 20 books in the level, I collect more than 20, but the number on the left doesn’t count down until EVERY book is collected. Just have the ACTUAL number of books listed so I can work out if it’s worth the bother of watching a boring ad to gain a maximum of 3 extra lives or just start again. The colour of the book and tiles make it hard to see how many are in a stack. Also, the ads for Matchington Mansion need to be revamped as I originally only downloaded the game to complete the tasks that are shown in the ads, this is not how the game actually works. Note, I have never spent a cent on this game and am so glad I haven’t or I would have rated it zero stars..JjjjjjjkkkkkkkkppppppppVersion: 1.152.0

✓ Enjoyable but......I love this game but it frustrates me. Currently I am stuck playing bonus levels with out any gain of stars or progressing through the mansion. And I find the rewards quite low, have you considered evaluating the coin rewards when completing a level as the cost of using bombs etc don’t really add to the value of completing levels. It is a big let down when you spend 700 to be rewarded 30 coins upon completing. Evening out the ratio would be more fair. I have been waiting for more tasks for nearly a week and I am sick of waiting and playing bonus levels. Have slowey started playing a certain other butler game due to boredom of bonus levels for no purpose. Please update and making the game more fair to cost for players so I may continue to enjoy playing. Thank you.29willVersion: 1.8.0

✓ Stupidly hard - skip this oneThere’s a real mean-spirit feeling about this game. Some of the levels are stupidly hard. To get extra turns sometimes you need to watch a video, I’m OK with that. But then the “wheel” spins and you get no extra turns. How mean is that? I spun the wheel seven times and got extra turns twice. To win some levels you have to pay for extra turns. When you’re not stuck in next-level purgatory it can be a fun game — but, really, there are better games out there that aren’t so mean-spirited. This game just isn’t worth the hassle..Millie NicknameVersion: 1.97.0

✓ Giving 3 starsI’m giving 3 stars because there’s never enough moves to finish a level even when you do try to finish a level your stuck on it for days until you get annoyed that you have to use your coins. It’s very frustrating, I enjoy the app I downloaded it because of the ads on tik tok. Not similar at all but very convincing, Anyways you pretty much have to pay for everything, You run out of coins because you used them for extra moves, they do provide some extra free things to regain coins. and you also get an extra 3 moves but if you fail a level your stuck, also every team you join don’t help with lives so if you wanna keep playing instead of waiting hours for lives you have to pay for lives. I get it, it’s suppose to be that way the further you get in the game, it would make sense for Hard or Very Hard levels, but just normal levels is pretty insane. It’s annoying enough to make you forget about the game and rarely come back to play, I’m pass level 600 already and only that far because some levels I had to use coins. The game can get expensive after some time, but it’s fun and I like it. The gameplay itself and putting the mansion together to your liking is fun..TwoTimezZzzzVersion: 1.152.0

✓ MisleadingJust another dissatisfied customer tricked into downloading by misleading ads. Please change your advertisements to accurately reflect what the game is. I kept playing in hopes there would be alternate mini games or something but there aren’t. Such a waste of my time..Plaidopusman1973650Version: 1.39.0

✓ Good but could be improvedI love the game and I love that you can decorate the little mansion when you win stars. However, the game becomes frustrating and even boring when you have to waste your stars on greeting people, investigating things, growing and serving food and and cleaning things up... etc! And when you only win one star per level - difficult levels being really difficult - it’s also irritating when most of the new items require 2 stars for access. Also, items won in an event can’t always be changed until you reach a few hundred levels later and you’re given new options. An ugly moving Halloween eye above the front door was annoying from mid October to December. Maybe I’m being picky, but as that’s all part of the game I’m not sure it should be so restricted. Makes me want to delete the game and just play The Sims again. I do like that you get regular events where you can win free lives and extra coins though. That adds some fun. If it weren’t for the frustrating parts it would be 5-star-addictive!!.Enkeli12Version: 1.80.0

✓ PTSD UNFRIENDLYI agree and have the same problems as all of the other users (low & high levels). This game is good but not if you aren’t enjoying it, because you’re stuck on the exact same level as last year and aren’t able to be a part of any events - I don’t usually use apps that are bias and unfair. It’s just that the bad reviews and problems with the game, are being hidden from new users. If I had known prior to downloading and being stalked by their advertisements, I would NEVER HAVE DOWNLOADED it. I won’t recommend this game, all I can say is: You never know, unless you experience it (unnecessary anxiety, stress and frustration that was NEVER in the description) yourself! I have PTSD and other health issues, that this app and developers has NEVER HAD PERMISSION to interfere with or worsen. Hence the reason I consider this app to be unfriendly to those who suffer with PTSD and from various types of emotional/mental/psychological health issues caused by other people and their stupidity, like I was recently diagnosed with!.MissxstaticVersion: 1.35.2

✓ LOVE IT but needs many improvements 😬This game is very fun, I LOVE it really, the only problem is that as the levels progress, the match-3 puzzles get extremely difficult and I end up spending hours on end, only to get one star. The games would be better if, depending on the level difficulty, you got rewarded more then one star. Maybe easy levels could get one star, hard get 2 and very hard levels reward 3. That would make collecting stars less tedious when the levels star to become difficult. 🙂 another annoying thing is that you are forced to waste precious stars on unnecessary things like jumping on beds and things like that. I waste all my stars before I can even begin to renovate the mansion. SIMPLE THINGS LIKE PUTTING NEW FLOORING TAKES SO MANY STARS LEADING UP TO THE REPLACENT..XXXXAtheneXXxVersion: 1.121.0

✓ No longer fun, takes days to pass easy levelsI’ve been playing for years and now I’m just done with this… it takes days and 15+ tries to clear green levels… way to kill the game. No longer fun challenge just defeating..The Steph MarkouVersion: 1.145.0

✓ It sounded fun at first but...It sounded fun at first when I saw the improvements you can make to the house, but it started getting harder and harder and impossible to pass one level! And after you’ve passed it with too many attempts, you are forced to spend all your hard earned stars on trivial things like greeting people and teaching the pets tricks! If you wanna make the levels harder you should at least give the player a lot more stars as the difficulty of the level increases! This was not the game that was advertised! That was completey different and that’s why I installed it! The decorating is fun but it gets really long and tiring with all the trivial things you have to complete before you can actually start to decorate the rooms. I am thinking of uninstalling the game! It makes me so annoyed after I can’t win a hard level and I just leave and start playing a game that gives me pleasure and I actually have fun playing it. I think if you don’t fix the issues like having to spend too many stars on trivial things and if you don’t speed up the process so we don’t have to spend so much time on little and unimportant things and if you don’t make levels actually passable then people will start to uninstall and install other fun games where you can actually enjoy playing! and this is not just me, I have read the other reviews and have seen that other players have similar issues! With no improvements to the game you will be losing customers pretty fast!.N48JVersion: 1.58.0

✓ What to fix first?Still waiting for the game play to look like The ad that brought me here..Johnny SpriteVersion: 1.38.0

✓ BugsBeen playing this game for a while but since the last update, it keeps closing by itself. Can’t play!!.MariemehVersion: 1.52.0

✓ Love it, but getting ready to delete.Some levels are easy and some far from it. But what really is getting me frustrated and ready to delete this game is, 1- only one star reward for each level, you could get a hard level take a day or pass it and it’s only one star, then the next level is super easy do it first go and it’s one star reward. Reason 2- you then have to waste one star to greet a neighbour or play with the cat or jump on a bed or read a book or help the bird find its nest, When all you really want to design the mansion. Reason 3 which is really getting to me is, I’m up to level 200+ and still have only had access to decorate lounge room, bedroom and library, then they make you do the gardens, I really wanted to finish the mansion, then move on to the gardens. So please if you want to improve this game and keep me playing and for me to recommend it, these are some tips for you..Miss pixiVersion: 1.34.1

✓ Not at all like the ads would suggestThis is just another match-three house upgrading game like Homescapes, not at all like the home disaster puzzle game the ads suggested. Big disappointment!.TgagnonVersion: 1.39.0

✓ False advertisingThe game has nothing that the ad showed.No one cares?Version: 1.38.0

✓ 🤷🏻‍♀️Been playing since release date and now I’m finally caught up on levels, +99 stars waiting to be used on renovations I thought when you update the game for the new levels it’d update new content for furniture etc. but it didn’t also once you played all the possible levels you get bonus levels that provide furniture coins.AwasisVersion: 1.145.0

✓ Good, but Could be Much BetterOverall, this is an okay game. It is fun to play, and works well. But there are several issues with this game. For one thing, the ads for this game show something completely different than what you actually do. They suggest that what you will be doing is playing rounds where there are problems with your house and you have to choose the right tools to fix the damage, or they show it as simply picking out furniture for the mansion. But in reality you are playing Candy Crush with pillows and getting stars for that, and using that to buy furniture which takes much longer than the ads suggest. Also, I think that the difficulty of the levels increases much too fast, because I am now only at level 26 but have been playing the game for a month and a half. And I assure you this is not because of my capability as many of my other friends have tried to pass the levels but couldn’t. Also, I am at level 521 in Lost Island, a game that is virtually the same. Lastly, the game progresses very slowly due to the fact that you only get 1 star per level. I would not recommend this game and will be deleting it soon. If you are looking for a better game that tells a story, try Lost Island, or if you want puzzles that look like this try Candy Crush..The solitaire guruVersion: 1.42.0

✓ If I’d wanted a gardening game I’d have downloaded one!!I’m on level 343 and am bored silly sweeping leaves, choosing plants and cutting hedges. As I’ve said in the title; if I wanted a gardening game I’d have down loaded one!! Apparently there are now over 60 rooms to play, but so far I’ve only had access to 5 (in the house) and have spent weeks stuck in this garden. An element of choice would be a good thing too - I HAD to take on a dog, buy/win it’s parafernalia and build a kennel (in the garden 😡) when I’d rather have access to a new room in the house. (I’m a dog owner in the real world so not anti dog!) I enjoy the levels and agree that you can get stuck on one for ages, so far I haven felt the need to buy anything - but after all these levels I still haven’t been given access to the kitchen!! There are some good opportunities to win an hour of free lives, and some cute side games, an£ the graphics are great, but these aren’t enough to merit more than 3 stars.The Scottish Mrs BVersion: 1.37.0

✓ IPhone Xr issuesLoved this game on my 6s, however the game exceeds the screen, on the Xr, when in the mansion which is an issue to play as there is no play button and cannot select furniture 😢.Self aware123456901248Version: 1.28.0

✓ DisappointedThis is nothing like the ad. I was hoping to try the pick and drag choices to fix things. I will be removing it..LkjhgfdsaghVersion: 1.39.0

✓ False Advertising, Very Laggy, CrashesI thought this game was about repairing and designing your own mansion because of the ads that were shown, but instead you spend most of your time playing these little games where you match up three of the same shapes. It's basically like Candy Crush, but that's not what it showed on the ads. Another annoying thing about this game is that it is very laggy, and the more you play, the more laggy it gets. After a while, it ends up crashing when I'm in the middle of a level which makes me lose my progress. Please change and fix the game..KayKay2336Version: 1.33.0

✓ Not as advertisedNot at all what the ad made it seem. What a waste!.Lesley124466Version: 1.38.0

✓ Add is misleadingI am really disappointed with this game. When I saw the adds popping up I became interested in it but after downloading this I realised this is a copy of candy crush and nothing more ( -_- ).RomaisaaaVersion: 1.38.0

✓ MehThis game looks nothing like the add. after i saw the add i came to check it out and it’s like homescapes but i got it anyway because i like interior design. it was fun in the first room but then we got too many tasks and we never got enough stars or coins. i would get it again if you updated this game but i don’t even think you read these reviews..Rosiegirl12Version: 1.39.0

✓ If you like to wade through in game advertising, this game is for you!Several months ago I would have given this game five stars but having to wade through forced advertising(for the game folks! Not ads!) that you can’t skip for the most part. Below is a typical game start. Open app and wait for the expected ten second load. Pop up of holiday event, hitting go to event or exit out makes no difference, you go to holiday event wether you want to or not. Ten second load screen later, you arrive at holiday event. Hit exit button to go back to the main game screen you wanted in the first place. Ten second load screen latter and once your back you have a pop up advertising the game sale of X and X being on discount. Hit no and another pop up of a in game event, luckily there a skip button and you bypass the dialogue. Ten seconds later, after the animation is done, another pop up of an in game event that can’t be skipped. Fourth five seconds to a minute latter, you can finally exit out of the forced dialog event only to finally be greeted by the daily gift pop up. Collect gift and somewhere in the neighborhood of three to four and a half minutes later, you are permitted to actually play the game. Seriously devs, are you trying to tick off and drive away customers? All the events are great but make them skipable for crying out loud..GhhjfrhjuVersion: 1.57.1

✓ Good but...I like that the game is like bejeweled twist and how it is creative and with a story line. But there are some levels that are a pain to get through just to get one star. Whenever i run out of moves sometimes the and ad is available and I can do the spinning wheel but there’s a low chance of get extra moves. When the ad is not available there’s the 500 coins to spend just to a few extra moves. A 100 coins for 1 freaking move, not to mention the amount of coins I get depends on the explosives left that I got on a level. If you plan on making levels harder why can’t you just make it so that you can earn more stars based on the difficulty of that level. I am on level 1767 and I am playing the new version on the time limited room where you earn a certain amount of lightbulbs that depends on how many levels you’ve done. I have done 32 levels and I don’t get enough lightbulbs like I usually do with the previous version. You already got people complaining about how some levels are hard to do just to get a star then spend like 2-3 stars on some trivial things. Now I know you extended the days to 8 to complete the time limited room. But for me, I personally like the previous version where I can match the cushions that has the lightbulbs and I can get more that way rather then doing like 3 levels and get an award of 40 lightbulbs..Girly-all-aroundVersion: 1.49.0

✓ Highly addictive but...This game is enjoyable, not unduly difficult for the most part and highly addictive BUT... it is EXTREMELY expensive! On a difficult ish level you’ll go through your 5 lives quickly...you can wait for your lives to replenish (1 life after 15minutes) but this makes the game slow and boring! You can request lives from friends but you can only request or send lives once every 24hours! So the only other option is to purchase a pot of coins... these range in price from £1.99 for 1100 coins (each refresh costs 400 coins so this doesn’t last long! Up to £90! for a chest of coins. The little mini games usually last a couple of days but one of these has a piggy bank in the corner of the screen..all your earned coins go into the piggy and when you’ve achieved 3000 you have to pay £4.99 to buy the bloody coins back!! RIDICULOUS xxxx I’m on level 950 but unless the developers can think of easier/cheaper ways to earn additional lives, I’m ready to uninstall the game!.Barfie121Version: 1.44.3

✓ Now not so sureI have been playing this game for some time now and have really enjoyed it. I love the challenge of hard levels, super hard levels are interesting. But the one thing I really have trouble with is how often this game crashes and closes itself. It is really frustrating when I cannot even get it to load long enough to play one level. Hope you are working on this problem, it’s mainly since the last couple of updates from apple..Allus5Version: 1.51.1

✓ Please make it a little easier?When I first played this game, I ABSOLUTELY loved it. It was fun and great, I liked the story and other stuff. I finished the living room, the bedroom and nearly the library, but as it went on, it got more harder, I didn’t like it. I stopped playing for 4 months (then came back to play again) I tried one more time, but it was just too hard ! Like the moves are quite useless in some levels but it keeps happening now! I get less moves, bombs in wrong places, and some other things like that. I just want to carry on with the story at least, like if you can’t do a level but you don’t enough money for a booster or something to help then there’s nothing we can do if we just fail, fail and fail all the time! Please make them a little easier. Not too easy but please also make hard level’s moves more better please! (Like for example you move something but it doesn’t get or collect the book or thing that you really need) Sorry for my grammar, I’m not the best at English. Thank you..OrolinaVersion: 1.72.1

✓ Fake adsIts fake. Doesn't match the ads. Smh.DjmfmdVersion: 1.39.0

✓ Money spinnerOverall a great game, funny how every time an event comes around the levels suddenly become in passable. Also when you go to exit a level cos you know you have no chance passing it, the play on message pops up to make you tap it whilst trying to exit out spending what little coins you have that are so difficult to acquire unless you are spending real money. For those who have money to waste on a game great, but some of us just want a fun game to play and I understand you need to make money from the game but having spent an hour on a level which apparently is an easy level to still not pass it is ridiculous, a great game but I’m not spending money just to pass a level..PlaygfitnessVersion: 1.129.0

✓ False AdvertisementI don’t like the fact that I was fooled into purchasing this game. While I was playing a zombie game, the ad got this game was being shown several times. The ad involved one of those games where all kinds of plumbing incidents are happening in the house (e.g. the bathroom) and you had to select amongst three things to fix the problem. For example, the tub was over flowing with water, the toilet was clogged, and the sink was running over, so you had to choose the correct object to fix the problem. If you didn’t then you failed. So I was intrigued by that ad, which made me purchase this game once the name popped up after the advertisement. I’m upset because Nowhere in heck did this game advertise having to match objects. I’m currently on level 68 and I have yet to come access the part where I’m fixing water problems in the bathroom. So I feel that this is a scheme for the owner to stall the players in order to make MAX dollars from us having to purchase additional coins, expensive bundles, etc. before getting to that part of the game. AND make it so bad, there is nothing written within the game that tells you at what level or the amount of levels you have to complete before getting to that other part of the game. So a player could have been playing for months and have spent a large sum of money before getting to that destination. End result, FALSELY ADVERTISED!!!🤯😡.Sweetp B.Version: 1.50.2

✓ Fake video adsI was only playing because I thought I’d actually get to do what the video ads showed me but NOPE.Danny. DynomyteVersion: 1.34.1

✓ Ad promoting it is a lieI thought it would be like the ad were you had to make the right decision but it’s not it’s stupid match shapes together and stuff. I usually don’t like those things but I decided to give it a try and the levels are extremely hard even from level 15 upwards it becomes extremely difficult unless you pay for booster and extra lives. Yeah you need lives. If you don’t win the level you loose a heart and you only get five. Once you’ve lost them all you have to wait an hour before you can play again and bare in mind it’s one life, one hour!!!! Also you have to build stuff to finish your rooms and for most of them they take hours unless you want to pay money. Then your waiting two hours to get your next activity it’s pointless. Why lie in the ad?? Would not recommend this game unless your willing to spend minimum £20 to actually get anywhere with it..Art💗loverVersion: 1.53.1

✓ Just a money spender...don’t bother!!!Starts off easy which gets you hooked, then once you have used all the free stuff and it’s let you get so far the levels all of a sudden turn really difficult and the stuff that you buy for the house are just stupid things like play with the cat and greet the neighbour where you have to use your coins. This game needs easier levels for one and better things to buy so that you might want to spend money. If you can see someone is struggling on a level and using all their lives...give them a break will you!! Also if someone wants to spend then there should be a smaller pay option like £1 or 99p and you should get more that 5 goes. The level I am on you have to collect 25 letters and you only get 25 attempts to get them and half the time there are no matches. Also don’t use the helper that shows you the next move it just throws you off and doesn’t help you just end up losing goes...rubbish game and money waster!!.BurnieHVersion: 1.39.0

✓ Fun but doesn’t pay offI’ve been playing this game for a while now and I’m on a high level but throughout the whole game I’ve had one huge pet peeve, the rewards are far too small. You don’t get enough for how much you put in, for example, you would use your own money and sometimes you’re spending so much but the game only gives you 10 coins. The average amount of coins I get is 30 and I don’t think that’s anywhere near fair. Also, once an event finishes you can’t go back into it, you can only go back into completed ones, that’s not fair enough, especially if you’re the type of person who has to finish things. It’s fun to play while you’re waiting in a dentists office but that’s about it..Blah1000000Version: 1.46.3

✓ Not the game it is advertised as - very disappointedThe ads I saw showed this to be a game that you could fix your mansion but has turned out to be nothing more than the same as Homescapes or Candy Crush. Got to level 60 to give it a good chance an onto the 3rd room with not even a mini game that reflects what was shown in the advertising. Very disappointed. Suggest they change their ads or actually provide the game they are advertising..KrazykdjVersion: 1.35.2

✓ It needs workI’ve been playing for about a week now and am finding it a little frustrating. I find a lot of levels are too hard. In lots of cases I’ve been stuck on a level for 10 lives. You are also not given enough money or enough stars as a reward as things can cost up to 3 stars and once you complete something, another thing is thrown at you that is even more expensive. You are also giving 500 coins for five more tries on impossible levels and then have to wait an hour to just fail again and lose all your money. I also find that there are completely pointless things that you have to complete in order to progress. I enjoy the game but get incredibly frustrated with it. It needs better balance between reward and cost. Please update it to make it more enjoyable. Thanks..KittypuppychickenVersion: 1.33.0

✓ DO NOT LET THE AD DECEIVE YOUOk so this game is exactly like Gardenscapes which I did NOT want. What I wanted was a game where I can actually fix things and complete levels so and so. But, NO APPARENTLY THAT ISN'T A THING all you do is play with some S T U P I D CAT AND ANSWER THE DOOR and when I actually get to decorate something I get 3 MEASLY OPTIONS and they call the “variety” and then when you actually do the levels all you do is rather spend money because the levels are CHEATING you, or you do it again. See when I got the game I just wanted to fix things over and over (LIKE THEY ADVERTISED) and then I get some random girl named Tiffany and a stupid cat named Rex. Don’t get me STARTED on the mouse levels they literally H A U N T your life and trust me I’m going to give the developers multiple messages for them to rather make another game LIKE THE AD or MAKE SOME NEW ADS LIKE THE GAME that is all people want. It’s pretty sad that a lot of developers are hopping on this trend of false advertising like if you actually do what the people wanted then people will not have the feelings about the game. For example the is a pottery game where you try to make the vase exactly how it is on the picture but then when you actually play it then all you get is really hard levels and die just because you touch a small bit of the color. If your going to get this game then LOOK AT THE REVIEWS. Thank you this was my ted talk :3.𝕝𝕚𝕥𝕥𝕝𝕖 𝕓𝕒𝕓𝕪Version: 1.45.0

✓ Nothing like the advertisement.Downloaded but found it to be a completely different game to the promo. Deceptive..JimmyLegzVersion: 1.39.0

✓ Cute but frustratingThe game starts out fun and challenging. The graphics and characters are very cute. The storyline can sometimes be repetitive and dull. Once you get into the higher levels, every level becomes difficult and the game’s “hard” levels are practically impossible unless you make purchases. When will developers realize that this only makes people get discouraged and quit playing? Their use of this tactic only causes the player to not want to spend cash or even bother watching the advertisements that sponsor the game. After receiving the typical “we want to keep the game challenging “ response; I eventually became so discouraged with the game that I quit playing for about six months. When I decided to try it again there were a lot of updates. Surprisingly, the level I had gave up on had been changed with an easier challenge. The levels remained challenging but were achievable and the game became fun again. Unfortunately, after three months of playing daily, the game has once again become overwhelmingly difficult. So once again the fun is replaced with discouragement. I guess I will have to stop playing again for a lengthy time so the developers can reset the gameplay to a reasonable level again. Although, proving the game is rigged in this way, causes me to just want to delete the app..Bee3024Version: 1.95.1

✓ Good concept, but...I will agree with most of what many others have said about this game. First, the ad that got me to download it was very deceptive in that it implied nothing about a Candy Crush style game. That said, I prefer this to Candy Crush since it has the added elements of decorating the mansion, which gives a sense of accomplishment . At first, the game was good, and I like that some levels were challenging, but doable. But now, several of the levels are near impossible unless you buy power-ups or get amazingly lucky. When you have an hour or more of free lives and can't clear a single level, you know something is badly designed. I've gotten to the point where I won't be keeping this game much longer for that reason. Finally, I will echo what others have said about being forced to waste stars on the cat or other events that don't advance the mansion. Yeah, I know the developers say it isn't all about decorating the mansion, but since that is how the game is advertised, the developers might at least understand why it is so frustrating to have completed a few levels only to waste the stars on stupid things like saving a cat from a suit of armor or giving it a bath which doesn't give any sense of satisfaction, completion, or progress..DrSartanVersion: 1.39.0

✓ Frustrating!I agree with what most people have said. This game is clearly rigged and intended for you to spend Hughes amounts of money. Some levels seem impossible to complete (where the foam is chasing you, or where you need to cut through five rat cages for each rat), and take like 30 goes, but then you get some great matches and complete it with 15 moves to spare. It’s obvious that the gems are not loaded randomly. Furthermore, you have to pay a star for stupid things like answering the door, which do not work towards improving the mansion. Finally, I got this game after seeing ads for it on other games. At first I downloaded the wrong thing because it was nothing like the ads, but then I realised it’s the right game with false advertising. In the ads, it’s like a puzzle game where you have to figure out how to fix the mansion (eg stop the fire on the stove, fix the windows, etc). Instead you just play the stupid matching game to earn stars and update furniture. There’s not nearly the variety of choices the ads suggested. I’ve looked around and there are a million versions of this game: Homescapes, garden scapes, etc. they all have the exact same format (even the same power ups). This is a scam company trying to manipulate you into paying cash money under the guise of a free and innocent app. Don’t let your kids play!.Jcnggd32-97Version: 1.39.0

✓ Not like the advertsI downloaded this game because it looked interesting on the adverts and was exceptionally disappointed. The game is a gem game, absolutely nothing like the adverts they show, they are very misleading. I persevered for a while, got 150+ lvls in but it’s still just a gem puzzle game just like so many others out there, you complete puzzles in order to get stars to do an “action” to help fix up your mansion, which half the time does pretty much nothing, if you’re lucky you might get to choose a couch from 3 ugly options. I’ll give it 2 stars just because the gem puzzle games can be a bit of fun, very frustrating when you can’t pass a puzzle but can’t move on to a new one until you’ve passed it though other than that it’s one of the most boring games I’ve played..SaiyurriVersion: 1.41.0

✓ NOT as advertised!!!Almost every advertisement for this game shows some portion of a kitchen where you are trying to make sure not to ruin it or destroy it but when you install the game, there is only rehab on the mansion. I’m in the 1700’s and I think I’ve gotten into enough rooms that if there was a part of the game where things were going to go wrong and expect you to fix it, it would have happened by now. The other very serious problem with the game is that you could spend days on the same level unless you spend your own money on moving forward (and even then, sometimes you still don’t advance). You’re only given one booster per day for free and IF you do win a level, you’re only given one star. It could costs upwards of 150 stars to complete a room and most times it’s a simple thing like one or two more moves until you win a level but that costs 500 coins (for 5 more moves) and your reward is usually only about 25-40 coins so your balance doesn’t grow very fast. Bottom line is that this game wants your hard earned money!!!! Sometimes they have “deals” for coins: about 3000 coins for $4.99 but they don’t last very long as you can imagine. On the positive side, they do host events very often and there are teams. It is a fun game but it can be extremely frustrating and I know many people who agree with me..MarisolpuzVersion: 1.60.1

✓ How many times can you greet Jack?The overall premise and levels are good but SOOOOOOO many levels and stars are wasted on the “greet so-and-so.” But you don’t just greet them once, you greet them 5 or 6 times in one room. Equally annoying are the everyone gets to perform or talk to everyone at a party to end each room. The fun part is the decorating. Everything in between is just frustrating. I keep abandoning the game because of it and go play homescapes instead. I honestly only come back when I have run out of levels in that game. I think this would be my preferred game and I would stay on this platform but the wasted one and two star tasks of “talk to”, “greet”, “ask”, or even “watch the sunset”, just kill me. Likewise the timers on expensive builds and tasks. All other games on similar platforms have done away with this, take the hint. If I pay 4 stars for a cabinet, I am not going to sit around for 3 hours to watch it be built. I am going to turn the game off and come back maybe a day later, maybe two months later, maybe not at all. You have stalled my interest. I’m not going to keep buying coins to play more levels if I can’t make progress. Like I said, a lot of features this game has are good but it really fails in keeping its audience engaged. I get more frustrated than anything else because of the lack of progress..Frustrated and then someVersion: 1.93.1

✓ Visual update was a bad ideaI’ve been playing this game for five years now and i absolutely loved it! but since the update i don’t find it appealing anymore.. it was great before, why change it .. me and a lot of other players that i’ve seen on the app share the same opinion we all stopped playing as much as we did. i think you’re gonna lose your players because of that...RutrippynVersion: 1.151.0

✓ Review twoSo after playing this game for a few months now.....I have finally reached my the level which makes me delete a game. I do not like spending a full day on one level, let alone three days. I had on my first review congratulated you on making a game where the levels can be passed within a few hours of trying. But I have reached to 616 and have spent three days on it. There is no hints under support for this level. I have had enough. I still recommend you take out these minor moves which you need stars for. Such as phoning someone then greeting them. I still recommend giving two stars for harder levels..Melissa624Version: 1.76.0

✓ 3 stars or maybe 4This game is good. It’s lots of fun to play. I love how you can chat to others and support everyone with smiley stickers and life’s. There is a big lie in the advertising. Never have I come across the mini games which is partially the reason we downloaded this. I would probably give this game a 5 stars if it weren’t for the lies. Sometimes when it loads in it takes a century to get to the home page. Over all I give this game a three and a half stars in total. I feel like this game could be better and more surprise and mystery plus you always have to by everything with $$$$ actual money. I do enjoy this game though and I suggest it for kids or even adults! Please respond developers, it would be a lot to know someone actually read this..Crumpet1234Version: 1.132.0

✓ Decent gameI really actually like this game a lot, my chief complaint is that the puzzles get much harder and you still only earn one star. I mean, it’s fine to make the puzzles get gradually more difficult but to be using all of your power boosts and still not clear a level several times, then when you finally get past it you only get one star. It’s my main complaint but it’s truly aggravating. I could honestly say it might be enough to make me delete the game and be done with it. It’s such a lackluster victory to get past these levels because you are rewarded with the same reward as you would get from one of the easy levels. The only other thing I don’t like is that it asks for stars for every stupid thing. Talk to the jia. Greet Rex. Talk to so and so. Then you have to get more stars to get them to do what you’re after in the first place. Seriously, with the levels increasing in difficulty with every one you complete having every single thing cost stars is a bit ridiculous. They need to work on a few of these things and then the game would be flawless. I hope they consider people’s input because these can be some make or break things for a game. People don’t like working hard at puzzles to be minimally rewarded and then asking for those rewards at every turn..LarissaMyers84Version: 1.35.2

✓ Ok kind of.🤔Love game but I keep losing all my lives so always had to leave the game .Also why do have to pay more money every time you change your item of furniture ? The furniture and the walls even the chairs they never go together . You also have to go and look at a chest and use up your stars ⭐️. I also think that the harder levels you should get more stars ⭐️ for it ! Also the game is nothing like the advert so you better change the advert because the whole point I got it is because it looked good on the ad. Why can’t you actually appear in the game when Tiffany is talking to you ? I think this game is the same as Homescapes the game so try not to copy the other game ! I know I said that I love the game but really I don’t!😡🤬 This game is way to hard when you get to the first bedroom and I am stuck on level twenty three ! The mansion is soooooooo big I don’t know 🤷‍♀️ how anyone one would get to the end of it? You never get enough coins on the game and are always stuck ! I think you should pay soooooo much just to get five more fricking goes !!! I might end up just game of trash !!!.Poppie BonniVersion: 1.35.2

✓ App Support... or notThis probably belongs in App Support, but clicking the link labeled that just takes you to a web page with links to download the game. Uh... yeah, I have it already, and that’s why I was looking for support. Everyone says about the too many levels to get anything done, and they’re right. The whole point of the game is to have a sense of accomplishment on the screen. I’m at level 3,593 so trust me, it matters. What’s more frustrating right now though is the teams. I’m in a team —my second—where only about 5 of us are still actively playing the game. The inactive players include the team organizer. There needs to be a way to have the system kick people out of teams when they haven’t passed a single level in, say, 3 weeks. I’m considering bailing on this team again because this feature is missing. You’re really defeating the social “excitement” you’re trying to build when people leave the game and there are Thousands of teams filled with deadweight players who have quit playing the game. Please do something about that. Also, it’s really frustrating to not be able to get back into special rooms to complete them. There needs to be a way to do that—if it’s like spending 2 stars for access for 2 days or something. But that’s just annoying to have unfinished stuff that I can’t do anything about..SplendaJoyVersion: 1.60.1

✓ Nothing SpecialSaw the Facebook add and was intrigued by the idea of guessing which tool fixes what item, but quickly realized after downloading that this is nothing more than a candy crush spinoff. While it’s a good time waster, you still only get five lives to complete levels which earn you a star. Ok. But the kicker is when every action requires stars to complete. If the next step is to call the repairman, that’s a star. Then another star to answer the door when he gets there. Then 2-3 stars to fix the thing. There’s your five lives and that’s only if you complete each level every time. Some levels require you to use special items to complete or your 500 coins for five more moves. Ok. Coins for moves is nothing new, but if you complete a level, you only get between 15-30 coins each. This means you have to complete a TON of levels just to get a chance at five extra moves. While the game is soooo much better than its other version with the guy butler fix his house, this game could use more ability to earn more coins. Get rid of those fraudulent adds or either actually put those as levels in the game. Say every 10th level is the game seen in the add. People would be more apt to continue playing with the prospect of something different around the corner..Sbrun468Version: 1.35.2

✓ Could be better!This game could be so much better! I’m not generally a fan of matching games, but I love the fixing up of the mansion part. I was willing to deal with the matching side of it for that reason. Started out great, do some matching, earn stars to fix your mansion. However as the game progresses you have to use your hard earned stars on ridiculous goals like play with cat (2 STARS!) or polish armour! It sometimes takes many turns to earn those stars and it really peeves me off to waste them. Those sort of goals should be optional, or at least only cost 1 star AT MOST. I’m only level 64 and I’m assuming from the size of the mansion it only gets worse as the game progresses. This makes people like me who are more interested in the Reno part lose interest quicker. Please consider this for the next update..TriniBossNinjaVersion: 1.38.0

✓ AnnoyingVery addictive in the begging as the game does not go off course as much as it does further. I find it extremely annoying that you have to spend your stars on stupid tasks such as- play with the cat, read a book, have a nap?!! Seriously?! I thought it’s all about renovating the mansion. The other thing i find annoying is the so called “ challenging levels” . There is nothing challenging, it’s just a matter of are you supposed to pass the level after 3 tries or 30. It’s more than obvious when “the game” just lets you pass and everything goes so smoothly although a minute ago you didn’t even make it through 50% of the level for about 100 times. And the way it mixes more colors at the end of the levels just so you don’t get too much coins. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Definitely great game for 5 year old one but if you are an adult trying to kill some time - choose something else otherwise the only thing you will be killing is your patience. 🤦🏻‍♀️.HadEnoughOfTakenNamesVersion: 1.38.0

✓ Nothing like the ads!I've seen different ads for this game and ALL of them depict a problem-solving game. Not another match 3 game!! You guys need to learn that ads are supposed to give potential buyer/installers a little preview into what they're getting, not to completely mislead them with gameplay that would be way better than the stupid Candy Crush knockoff.Gigi333100Version: 1.39.0

✓ Not the game promoted in adsThought this was going to be an interesting, different type of game. Turns out to be just another swap game..MuskieMouseVersion: 1.38.0

✓ This game is fun.. But...Had this game a while now. I’m now starting to get bored of being stuck on levels and waiting soo long to get lives back. I agree with other reviewers about majority of the issues. Multiple times I have been one move away from winning a level to find I’ve ran out of moves and power ups. I’m not looking to spend any of my money to purchase these things as it doesn’t make sense to me (obviously I have more important things to spend my money on). Although I get that you want to make money from your game that’s kool. But it seems like all these games are the same, not allowing you to progress any further without actual purchase of items etc. Also I find it extremely annoying that you get bonuses for signing into fb and liking pages. Not everyone has fb so can there be an Option to say you don’t have fb and still receive rewards or something? I just feel these things would make it more fun for those that aren’t looking to make real purchases in the game and just. well.. Enjoy it hassle free...Mizzj87Version: 1.13.0
