Simon's Cat - Crunch Time for Negative User Reviews
✓ Fun little game but amount of advertising blowsHave enjoyed this game most nights for months. I love how you can play for prizes etc. Latest update however has brought with it too many ads.. they’re coming up constantly. I could deal with them before, but this is just greediness. If they stay like this much longer it will definitely drive me away, this level of advertising is WAY too much guys, literally ruins the enjoyment I was getting from it ☹️.Version: 1.13.0
✓ It was fun….untilFun to play but the ads just got more and more annoying. Some weren’t even in English. No option to purchase without ads. Goodbye Simon’s cat.Version: 1.64.0
✓ Ms Susi 😊🌺Hi Guys , Love the game , But totally agree with a lot of the other gamers ! I said about this before , it's watching the game to get an extra free coin , I never get them ! Now played and watched 10 more games for 10 free coins and have not received , also it's definitely too many coins to get 5 extra moves ! 70 coins is a lot ! I really think 40 is a much more agreeable amount , which is a good compromise , especially when you spend (Now paid£50) since I have been playing this and it's only been out now a couple of months ! If the money was to go to cats 😼protection ! That would be great . I would Defo give more Stars if these couple things were sorted . But I do love ❤️ the game you Guys 😼😸😺😽❤️.Version: 1.41.0
✓ Great little time wasterThis game is easy to play and great for killing time - although it’s not what I thought I was getting from the advert. I would never spend real money on the game though as it’s far too easy to accidentally use lots of coins..Version: 1.13.0
✓ Great fun gameI have been playing this game for ages but I noticed recently that the ads are more frequent, every 2 try’s now, and the disproportionate colour availability for the level your playing. If your task is to get 30 green, 30 yellow & 30 brown the the main colour you will get is pink forcing you to use hard earned points & bonuses or spend real money. I don’t expect a game to be easy but at least make it fair. I did ask about this before & got the excuse that the colours are auto generated by the game & not manipulated by the developers? You really expect me to believe that when a daily challenge is sooo hard to play because I can’t get the colours needed within the allotted moves. I personally think the developers have just got too greedy. Improve the play, extend the ads to every 5 tries & I’ll stay & increase my star rating. Do nothing, which is what I expect, and I delete..Version: 1.46.4
✓ The prices are insaneI’ve been playing this game for a while now and from time to time (rarely) I’m happy to pay £1.99 for some coins because you *obviously* make it impossible to pass some levels without paying, BUT, the next level of payment is £9.99???! Are you people insane?! You go from £1.99 to £9.99 with no middle option? I have never seen such a steep increase in price in any other similar game, and it’s just theft at this point..Version: 1.63.3
✓ Why have to wait to play needs work compared to other gamesCute game just started playing but so far easy to use. Ok after playing the game you come to a lock gate with three keys where either you need friends or wait 4 hours to play to unlock a lock I understand you want more people playing this game but what if you don’t have people as friends who want to play this game so I have to either spend money to get lock unlocked or wait 4 hours so I would play this game more but waiting to play isn’t fun so went from 5 stars to 3 stars and why have presents on the game board if no rewards for the play seems the little cat pics you open up could already be there was expecting some bonus for getting so far but you only get background pictures unlocked no fun in that well since I’m waiting 4 hours guess I will go and play some other games that don’t require me to wait so long to play.Version: 1.9.0
✓ Expensive game to playI just downloaded game on Saturday and it didn’t take me long to realize this game is expensive to play! Unfortunately some of us take longer to figure each level out, the boosters which can be confusing and limited moves to kill a mole, a hateful squirrel and a slobbering dog! You pay 70 coins for 5 moves if you didn’t win with the moves they gave you! If the 5 moves don’t do it maybe 5 more will. Before you know it the 800 coins you bought have vanished in a short period of time just playing 10 to 15 games! Of course the higher you go the harder they get! My time on crunch time has ended because I am going to delete! Pop time is much better but don’t be in hurry to beat the levels because eventually you will run out! All I can say is good luck to those that have the patience and the money to play this game..Version: 1.38.0
✓ Cute but expensiveVery cute game but when you spend your money on boosters and use them the game will place them under shrubs and in other inaccessible places. Also sick of watching ads and not getting the promised rewards. Happens time and time again. Not worth it when there are so many better games available. Also every time I open the game I get the same pop ups which I really don’t want to see. It’s like the creators are just thinking of ways to annoy the players as much as possible. Why do you want to drive us away? I refuse to play again..Version: 1.30.0
✓ Given UpI enjoyed this game in the beginning but it really wears away at you over time. The constant barrage of in-game pop ups that you have to close individually every time you load the game, finish a level, or sneeze. Not to mention the ridiculous nagging about turning notifications back of that you’ve obviously turned off because they are incredibly annoying. The last straw was losing my daily streak after throwing coins at the game to continue my daily streak (ironic, eh?). What they don’t tell you is that it just moves you to the next day of the daily quest. There’s some sneaky placement of spending coin buttons as well. On top of it all, it seems to be an unending rat race of never getting anywhere and feeling disappointed. All that being said, aside from the annoyances it was actually somewhat challenging and fun. I’ll continue to play Pop Time (there are similar annoyances there, fyi) for the time being but Crunch Time is done forever....Version: 1.43.0
✓ Love the game...to a point..This game is WAY addictive!! It’s really, really fun and the characters are hilarious! BUT.... Two of the biggest problems I’ve had with the game are: levels that are impossible to get 3 stars on and ads that black out. I’m one of those people who believe that I haven’t beaten a level unless I got 3 stars. There are a plethora, of levels like this in the game.. it gets to the point where you’ve used up all your bonuses/ powers, and you STILL can’t get 3 stars!! It’s like the tip of the 3rd star isn’t covered, so you lose. I’m not one to spend money on apps, so I’m trying to win without too much help. Then.. the ads..I totally understand that the makers of the game make money from ads..BUT, every time an ad comes on, the screen goes blank and I have to restart the game.. I finally won 3 stars on a level that I’ve been stuck on for 2 weeks..and what do you know, the black screen came on and I lost my score!! It’s really aggravating!! I want to completely love this game, but when that “stuff,” happens it’s hard to!.Version: 1.8.1
✓ Way too spammy with the Ads!The game itself is enjoyable, but I just can’t play any more because there is an ad after every level and then a pop up about buying a booster pack for the game. Its the same with the pop game. It’s just way too spammy which is very frustrating and honestly, for me, it saps any enjoyment for the game. If it wasn’t so spammy with ads it would have gotten 5 stars. I’ve sadly decided to delete both Crunch Time and Pop Time for the same reason… way too spammy!.Version: 1.64.1
✓ I’m uninstallingSeemed a great mindless game. Totally random. Totally frustrating now too. Classic pay to win. Use of in house won boosters before game load is rigged as means a harder game loaded- can’t add them after. Alternative boosters available within the game (But not as useful?!) Absolutely no point in continuing. Takes a week+ of tries to get a level. Nothing can be won without using extra bonuses. These are hard to come by- usually by unlocking a gate, but you win 2hrs unlimited play just before getting there. Now it’s locking part of the screen (level 1127 ) . Seems also to be rigged that. If unlimited tries, never win.. very annoyed. Also annoyed with some loop where the treasure hunt didn’t let me claim my bonus coins to buy myself enough goes to get to the next level and expired! FRUSTRATING!.Version: 1.31.1
✓ Too many adverts for me.Initially I enjoyed playing this game but the further you progress the more you hit levels which take multiple attempts to complete, that would be ok if you weren’t presented with an advert after each attempt. Example, level 1555, took 14 attempts before the tiles presented allowed completion of the game. With an advert after each attempt I had watched over 2 minutes of adverts to progress one level..Version: 1.46.3
✓ AdsI love this game!! But come on …. an ads after EVERY GAME PLAY!? Plus only 2 extra moves after u HAVE TO watch an ad. PLUS most all the ads are 29+ secs long. Your ad/game play ratio is disgusting!! BOOOOO. Thumbs down!.Version: 1.66.2
✓ Not the game I expected plus new problemsUp until this last tournament my biggest complaint is that in the previews for this game it always shows “find the differences” but so far I haven’t found it anywhere in the game and that was the whole reason I downloaded it in the first place. However the last tournament wouldn’t allow me to play but I was busy so I decided to let it go and play the next one. This tournament started and I have won the same level dozens of times but it won’t let me move on. So I tried to go to the support under the settings menu and I can’t even open it! So now I can’t play the tournament except for one level which means I might as well not play and the developers won’t even let me complain about it so it can get fixed!! If it’s not fixed by the tournament, I’m uninstalling the game. Especially because as I stated earlier the whole reason I wanted this game was to play “find the differences” like it showed on the videos I had seen for the game. I talked to a couple friends who have this game and they said they’ve never seen it in the game either I really think they need to change their advertising. Oh and side note this game drains my battery fast than any other game I have. Update: 8/4/18 Another update to the game and yet it didn’t fix the tournaments..Version: 1.20.1
✓ Fun game but greedy developersThis game is very fun, especially if you love Simon's Cat. However, I am giving it only 2 stars because of the greedyness of the developers. The game constantly tries to get you to make in-game purchases, which are extremely pricy. And I am not talking about a few quid per purchase here. But tens, with some being closer to a hundred pounds. You can play the game without paying anything, just choosing no each time, but your game play will be delayed and even stopped momentarily throughout the game. Deleted. Update: to no surprise, the developer's response is clearly a copy/paste reply with no comment on their greedyness. They only addressed struggling with levels, which I never had an issue with nor did I say about it in my review. Keeping with 2 stars..Version: 1.26.0
✓ BoringNothing to do with the comic. Basic game is really boring. Didn’t play long enough to get a mini-game..Version: 1.63.3
✓ Awful RNG will make you uninstallI'm giving this game a 2, the only reason it doesn't get a 1, is the fact that it has a lot of potential. I've spent a lot of time playing. However, if you want to play a game that makes you think you can strategize but is actually just gambling, then this game is for you. I say this because the maps start out on each level completely randomly, so sometimes the boosts you use end up being worthless, other times, you can use as many boosts as you have available, and you still fail the level. Not to mention, each boost is about .05 cents with the bigger ones being valued more, but say, you use the boosts and still fail the level, you'd think you'd get to keep the boosts, no, you don't. So you basically took a gamble with your boosts and the house won because RNG denied you. There's truly nothing more frustrating and encouraging you to watch ads for one time use treats that you'll probably lose anyway. That's awful game design and ad revenue priority at it's finest..Version: 1.17.0
✓ Fun but...I really loved this game but I find it so annoying that you are bombarded with adverts even when you have purchased coins. I have also found that the coins are quite expensive. There are some levels that are impossible to pass without using power ups. It is fun and adorable but not worth the adverts..Version: 1.8.1
✓ WrongdoingI actually love this game, but I’m going to leave one star regularly until they implement a safeguard step around spending coins. If your hand accidentally touches the any button that involves spending the in-game coins, there should be a further step that asks ‘are you sure’ in some way. This is a moral politeness, and this game doesn’t have it. If such a safeguard was in place, I’d actually spend more money on the game..Version: 1.10.1
✓ Avoid like the plagueAnother game that’ll leave you frustrated and broke. Levels get hard to clear without boosters very quickly so you’ll have to grind through your lives to get just the right combination to clear the level or you’ll have to start digging deep into your wallet for the in app purchases. Also the mole level is bugged as it is very hard to tap on the tile you want and then the mole will pop up and ruin the run of tiles you wish to clear. Also there are now many more pop up ads in the game which just makes it much more frustrating. These types of games should be banned out right and there should be a fixed price for the entire game from the get go as what appears to be “free" game soon can become an expensive money pit. Save your cash and go buy a console game instead..Version: 1.9.0
✓ Fun but costlyNice game, but it really does cost as it depends on what you get, both my mum and I have this game and I get some levels which are impossible and she can finish and then she’ll get an impossible one that I can finish - it all depends on what colour treats you get on screen, it often doesn’t matter how many times you leave the level and go back in - the bad randomness of colours remains the same. Then the tournament which we now realise must be a real fix as the person at number one has a score of over 330,000 REALLY!!!!! How does one achieve that score, the most I’ve EVER been able to get is 200,000 or so and that’s playing over and over and over again in infinite lives!! So I think I will avoid this part of the game for a while until it’s a bit more realistic in the scores! Apart from that it is a lovely game visually and it is easier than the usual “match 3” games where I can never progress. I only have this game and another that I actually spend a small amount of real money on as I don’t have much spare change..Version: 1.28.0
✓ False AdvertisingI kept seeing ads for this title in another game. The ads I saw showed “help Simon’s cat find these things “ or something like that. Basically it was a hidden object type game shown. I looked at it and saw it was actually just a matching type game, but I thought maybe the hidden object stages are after so many levels, a mini game type thing. I downloaded it and will now be deleting it because I’ve played enough that I am not seeing ANYTHING like what is in the ad! I bet they do this to get people to download the game and collect their data. It’s a shame because the animation/drawings are fantastic! I don’t understand the trend of games making ads for gameplay that doesn’t exist. The actual game is cute (which is why I’m giving it 2 stars) and I don’t know why you feel you need to do a bait and switch. Shameful..Version: 1.64.0
✓ 5 when I started but now so hardI loved this game when I started, but now I find the levels are so hard (and the ones marked hard near impossible). I spend weeks just doing the daily puzzle, slowly building up specials (although too many apples and not enough really useful stuff) and then have another go at a couple more levels. Even going back to earlier levels I would expect, with my skill improving, to be able to get full 3 stars there. I don’t expect (or want to) completely clear the game but the lack of progress is getting frustrating.Version: 1.15.0
✓ Game is fun but ...Puzzles are challenging but some are extremely difficult without buying the extras, AKA in app purchases. A major complaint, aside from the ridiculous difficulty of some levels, is when you run out of moves. After your final move, you get a “you’re out of moves” sign that covers the game board not allowing you a view of the board. Being able to see the game board, will help you decide if you want to buy additional moves. I’m sure this is by design by the developer to sucker more people into buying more moves. Before you buy more moves, look at the board when you’re 1 move away from running out of moves, to decide if buying more moves is worth it. Otherwise, you might end up buying two or three sets of extra moves to finish the level. With the exception of 3 or 4 levels, I have been able to finish them all without buying extra moves..Version: 1.29.1
✓ Has issuesFun game with some annoying points. I’m tired of the constant notifications that come up when you open the game. First there is an advert to close, then I’m being told about some in-game event, then I’m asked to connect to Facebook - no thanks, then I’m told about an in-game event I missed. I just don’t care. I don’t want to have to close 3 or 4 windows before I can even get to the game. Also, I understand companies with free games need to make an income but the amount of adverts in this game is pretty ridiculous. They appear when you open the app and then after every level. Let’s say play through for one level takes 1 minute or less, then you have to contend with an advert each time. Quite annoying..Version: 1.14.3
✓ Too hard!!Very addictive game, but it is so hard to complete the levels, it’s almost like the only option is to purchase extra treats to get anywhere. I do believe all the levels are possible to complete un-aided, but you would have to play some of the levels 50-60 times to get through them and this is very very frustrating. Levels should be made a lot easier, especially because it’s aimed at children. Also too many adverts..Version: 1.34.0
✓ Issue with daily bonusThe daily bonus resets before I can get to the last day…today I had 4 days left and it jumped back up to day one. I play faithfully everyday to get to the last bonus … frustrating.Version: 1.64.1
✓ Great game but the ads are crazyI enjoy playing this game but since I unlocked the last set of levels I get an ad every single time I play a level - not just when it's completed. This is not only tedious but is increasingly convincing me that I should just delete the game. Most of the ads freeze so I have to come out of the game and go back in to keep playing. The developer's response of "It's not our fault. We need the revenue to make the game better. Buy an in-app purchase to stop the ads." convinces me further that it's a deliberate ploy on their end to generate additional revenue. I don't like ads but understand that an occasional one may be necessary to generate income but this level - and the way they fail to respond and force you to either go to the App Store or exit the game - is unacceptable. If it weren't for the ads the game would be 5*..Version: 1.8.1
✓ Great so farLovely animation combined with an addictive but pleasant game. I haven't encountered the ads between every level as other reviewers have mentioned. Perhaps that comes at a higher level or perhaps they've reduced the frequency Edit: yes the adds come. I have now downgraded this a lot because of specific ads. This game must have plenty of children playing it. I have seen many ads for gambling apps!! That's bad enough for adults who may be potential gambling addicts but what are you doing to the kids?.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Pay to win and heavily manipulatedThere are many frustrating things about this game as it is an absolute classic pay to win. Without a doubt the most frustrating thing is that it is NOT RANDOM. Every element of the game is carefully constructed and manipulated to allow you to win or lose at their discretion. The treats are carefully doled out so that there is just enough to occasionally win and the rest you have to buy etc etc. Add to that it is very very slow waiting for the animations, even in the game, it quickly becomes unplayable unfortunately as the artwork is beautiful..Version: 1.29.1
✓ Game Is A Money PitI had to delete your game. I reached out to the developer about the frustration I have had with game boards that are designed so that the levels cannot be completed within the number of moves allotted. They responded by saying that each new challenge had a tutorial. That is not the issue. The tutorial is about the only time that a challenge can be completed in the allotted moves. Every other time it will come with obstacles that can only be overcome with multiple moves that eat into the moves you have. The only way to get around this is with extensive use of boosters and extra moves. They are then rapidly depleted. You end up having to use real money to cope with this. The developers seem to think that you have endless money to hand over to them. I don’t. I’m living on a small income, and I can’t afford this game. It’s produced for affluent people and gatekeeps accordingly. It was bad enough with Story Time on Arcade, but there I only had a small monthly subscription to pay. Now I know the real cost of playing this developer’s games. It is not fair or right..Version: 1.63.3
✓ Bugs on the increaseAbsolutely loved this game and didn't mind having to keep playing a game over and over to complete it, until the games became so difficult, even when they are not labelled as hard. I feel this is just a money making venture by the developers. I will play a game over and over if there is a real chance of getting through the level. I am not a novice at these games but think it's time to call it quits when a level is impossible unless you spend money. I don't give up easily but 30 attempts then still have to spend money. Would have given ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ but for the greed. Sorry..Version: 1.24.0
✓ Needs work...I love this game and have been playing it since day one. However, the following issues need to be addressed: 1. Every time I try to play the tournaments on my iPad mini, if I win the level and hit the arrow button to go back to the tournament level page, the game stops, I'm back on my dashboard page, and when I reload the game and get back on the tournament it puts me on the same level I just played with a zero score. 2. There is no point in having a help button if it does nothing when you push it. 3. When I play on my laptop it will sometimes not load and I get a message saying that my memory is full and I need to reconfigure the settings, but when I go to check this, I still have more than enough memory left. 4. The prices for coins purchased with actual cash are a bit unreasonable; other games I play have a price level lower than this one-for example, the $1.99 level is good, but then the next level jumps to $9.99? It would be nice to have something in between. The new "starter pack" deal is great, however. 5. There should be an incentive for winning a level, other games I play give a few coins or keys which you can save or trade for the bonus items after every level you win. It doesn't have to be much, even 1 or 2 coins or whatever would be great. If these items were fixed I would happily give this game 5 stars as it is fun. Developers, please pay attention to the players comments for ways to improve the game!.Version: 1.6.1
✓ I was enjoying itI was enjoying it and was on a roll then all of a sudden I get to a gate... I had 4hrs of unlimited lives and I get to a gate that I can’t open without paying for or waiting 4 hours to play the next game. What a stupid concept. To just get stuck there with no way of moving without paying to unlock it. I’m not far enough in the game for me to have earned the 70 coins it’s asking to get through, so I’d have to spend money. This is just after level 30. This is still where you’re still learning how to play the game and what the boosters are. Super ridiculous..Version: 1.24.0
✓ Lot’s of improvement...So I got this game thinking it would be a nice relaxing game to play. The first couple levels were fun and easy. But then it gets way to hard. I have scrolled through the other comments and others are saying the same thing. You just say back that people enjoy the challenge. But lots don’t either. I think there should be a daily present when you log in. I know there are daily levels but I would just like a daily power up or coins or something. It’s like on the levels that you purposely want people to spend real money on it. It’s like you control the game and make me fail the levels to make me mad so that I use coins or a power up. I like my coins and power ups so I don’t use them very often. I think you should have way more lives. And you shouldn’t have to wait for EVER to get more lives or get past a gate. It is RIDICULOUS!!! I think that’s all of my feedback for you. The game overall is fun just more improvement is all. I hope you take this into consideration since I have seen you say you are but never have improved some things. And please DEVELOPER respond to this not some robot computer that sends the same message to everyone. Thanks a lot!.Version: 1.14.2
✓ Getting close to deletingI cannot fathom why I see posts referencing the impeccably hard level 60 back at least a year (I am not going any further) and apparently there still isn’t a change?! I have never gotten less than 5% left on the darn squirrel’s life bar, and that was once. It’s one thing to be challenged, it’s another for a level to take nearly two weeks because it’s nearly impossible without buying coins for boosts and such. I am loosing patience and likely will delete if I don’t beat the level.... well basically today. It’s also extremely frustrating when you see developers say ‘just select the treats on the sign.’ Like, really? Hadn’t thought of that but every time I have a long line of ‘those treats’ the stupid squirrel throws acorns right in the middle. It’s no longer fun and challenging, it’s annoying and frustrating. And it seems there won’t be any changes in spite of complaints. So, I kind of feel like why keep a game that’s impossible?.Version: 1.31.1
✓ Fun gameJust got the game last night and I’ve been really enjoying playing it, until now. I am stuck in the first locked area. I have to play to get the keys and I got the first key, but now I have to wait to “let the cats rest”, ask a friend, or spend “coins”. The wait is long and even longer if you have to close the app if you have other things you need to do and I’m not going to just leave the app open for the (very long) 4 hour timer to finish it’s count down (edited because I just finished the wait for the 2nd key, the wait started last night, and now I have to wait 4 hours to play for the 3rd key, not cool), I don’t have friends who play this game to ask for help, and I don’t have enough coins earned yet to buy a key (no money in PayPal to purchase coins either). I do realize you can go back and replay games already played to get up to 3 stars per level, but I like to be going forward in a game, not back. I do like playing this game so far and I am going to finish waiting to play to get the keys, but I am disappointed in the length of the wait. The locked area is not very play friendly, so I gave it 3 stars for now, when I originally gave it 5 before hitting this “road block”..Version: 1.7.1
✓ RepetitiveLevels after a while start repeating especially when it’s a treat heist. Just spent 2hrs trying to pass the final level to get prizes was on the verge on uninstalling finally managed to get it though😡 but there seems to be only two types of treat heists it changes between either set but am over the same levels for each set needs a new heist level.Version: 1.32.0
✓ Good fun but ads are super pervasive and annoyingOverall I really enjoy the game play mechanics. It's a really cool spin on the color match games. I agree with other reviewers about the cost and random placements of the power ups. But I could still work around those. The big issue is the ads that show up before and after the games. Typically the ones before the game are often just a static Image and the ones after are the 30 sec video variety. Both my 5 year old and I play this and as frustrating as the ads are for me... they are INFINITELY worse for her. Some of the videos for the fighting games are not really age appropriate for her and make her nervous. I recognize that you make money on ads but I would GLADLY spend money to purchase a full ad free version. I know that I am not in the minority on this request. I checked the App Store to see if there was a pay option but there wasn't. If the ads are reduced or an ad free version is offered I will up my review..Version: 1.7.1
✓ STOP THE MISLEADING ADVERTISINGI was told if I updated the new version would have what was advertised (as I had previously remarked it hadn’t) I was hoping they might be telling the truth, but they were lying yet again. PUT IN THE SPOT THE DIFFERENCE don’t bother lying to me yet again. The advert for this game that annoyingly popped up during other gameplay, depicted that this simons cat game would be a “spot the difference” game. I’ve played a few levels hoping that eventually I’d get to the “spot the difference” part of the game, but it seems they don’t have one. STOP USING MISLEADING ADVERTISING, I’m tired of loading games only to find out they’re nothing like what was advertised. If I wanted to play a game where you make rows/lines of stuff, I’d play CANDY CRUSH. If I could rate this zero stars I would..Version: 1.17.1
✓ Full of adverts since last update.Great game with a lot if fun but ruined Vince the last update where you get almost after every game one advert and now these advert start to be up to 30sec long. Very disappointing..Version: 1.21.2
✓ Great game but recently buggyI love this game but recently it’s been really, really buggy. It frequently freezes after a level, particularly in the Tournament mode (really infuriating if you have used boosts or coins, because they are wasted). I am not able to play the social challenges at all anymore as they never load. Please fix this!.Version: 1.31.1
✓ Cute game with minor drawbacks- a must play for Simon/match3 fansI got this game because it has Simon Cat in it. I've stuck with it because it is for the most part a well-designed game. I have seen some reviews where they say you cannot progress without spending money and I would have to disagree; i am level 130 or so and have not spent a dime. The game offers plenty of rewards in the form of the boosts that help you win the levels. As well, they offer daily challenges with tournaments and quests with great rewards that keep the game fun and engaging. The problem i have is that you have a three-star system here and the third star is ridiculously difficult to obtain. I have wasted all available boosts to try to attain this third star for progressive levels and I have not managed this beyond level 34. Not having a reasonably attainable perfection score is a kicker for me. In order to support the game i purchased the no-ad pack, but i feel that the boosts items are way overpriced. Once i complete the available levels i will be done with the game. Another small drawback is the CONSTANT demand for notifications and Facebook access. I detest notifications and so have not allowed them, yet this game ask for permission every few levels..Version: 1.6.3
✓ Great but..I love the graphics, I love the music, and the idea of the game with mini games as well is great. BUT, I only got to level 4 before I couldn’t get 3 stars. Even with a single swipe to fully feed all cats making links as long as possible and using the least amount of turns I only get 2 stars. Once I even only got 1! If I clear more cookies I use more turns. So it’s a lose either way. I will continue to play but I like to get 3 stars. I wouldn’t assume it would get ‘hard’ at level 4 when there is 5 THOUSAND + levels!! But… it’s only my first day playing so I’ll keep going and see how it goes. Well I’ve been playing a few days now and again, love the music and graphics and stuff but I can’t really progress when it gets hard so soon. I can’t imagine what level 100 is like let alone 5,000!!! I’ll probably end up dumping the game. Also the ‘lives’ part is kinda dumb. People want to relax for long periods of time. This just limits game play and I don’t see how any game can benefit from it. If the developers want to make money, maybe make it so you can earn coins to decorate a cat room or even dress up the cat with holiday themed outfits and head bands and hats lol. Plenty of ways to keep people interested and it’s NOT by giving them only a few lives to play. They will just play another game..Version: 1.61.0
✓ Cute but time to quitAs always when you start these games they are very cute and you’re able to work your way through the levels. Then you reach these levels where you have to use up your boosters and you are not given very many chances to finish the game. it’s very difficult to beat a game when you only have 12 moves and I have to use the first five or six with no chances of making any chains for extra boosters. I am not one to sit and play a level over and over and over and over and over and over and over again like the other games. I understand just like everything else it’s all about getting your money. I understand you need to generate money for the games but you guys just need to lighten up. I have a very busy stressful life and would like to be able to unwind at the end of the day with a cute cat game. If all these games weren’t so pushy about getting your money maybe I’d spend a few dollars but I seriously doubt that will change..Version: 1.61.0
✓ Revenue SpinnerUnfortunately never seen a game pushing algorithmic averages to pull the user into a spend money to complete levels. At level 130+ levels and the data averages are far more biased to color options being presented to weigh buy more user lives etc to successfully pass a level. Loved the game however last 2 days clearly shows biased towards opening your wallet to continue. So delete and problem resolved..Version: 1.45.0
✓ Bit tedious and boring.I’m finding the game a bit tedious and boring. I seem to get stuck on levels for a long time with no hope of moving through as there are too few moves. I can eliminate all acorns for example, or whatever they are, but the squirrel just keeps throwing more, so no hope of beating him. Nowhere can you read up on how the game works, or find hints and strategies, and there are only 4 turns before you run out, then have to wait for ages..Version: 1.24.0
✓ Was a 5 but now a 2I LOVE this game but lately it’s been crappy, sound not working for the game but works for the ads, deleting my prizes with line clearers when it never did before, randomly kicking me out of the game ... not pleasant!! Would have been a 5 before for sure, can’t seem to find how to contact the creators to inform them of the glitches. Need new update!!.Version: 1.32.0
✓ Fun at times but a money holeSo I got this app mainly because I like Simon's Cat. The game is great till you get farther along. The levels are designed in a way that you lose most of the time. After playing a level for about an hour and losing I broke down and bought the smallest bonus pack, still barely beat it. The cost of items are ridiculous and the units per item are horribly done. Instead of 70 coins for an item, maybe increments of 10 or something. I have played similar games like this, but I actually could play the game and they had ads, but I didn't have to waste money on several levels. I don't see the purpose of adding. Levels when you can't even make it to level 60. Maybe add more ads for revenue or make it a game you can buy and add more ways to get items. Another thing is the cat treat bonuses to take rows out are so random and most the time don't go where you would like them to be. Those that mace it far in the game either are lucky as heck or spending a lot of money. I can't recommend this game until the play mechanics are fixed. I know that my response from a forum person will be, I will let the developers know. . ..Version: 1.4.2
✓ Hot streak turns out to be a disadvantage!While the hot streak idea seems great, it’s not when it means it’s now impossible complete a level because the painter changed the colour of the tiles you need to complete it (which is exactly what just happened to me on level 703). So not only could I not pass the level, the hot streak was broken so all my effort to pass previous levels in one go went to waste :(.Version: 1.17.0
✓ Leave it aloneI downloaded this for my grandson who is a Simon’s cat fan, but thank heavens I read the reviews before I paid out for unlimited lives. I don’t expect much to be free nowadays, but £10 for a days unlimited lives is just plain greedy. Now he’s back home I can delete it and I’ve warned his parents to avoid it like the plague. Interestingly, the tens game which is constantly advertised is another “we’d like to rip you off” game. Thanks for your response. I appreciate that you can play the game without paying, but I still think £10 for 10 hours is greedy, especially since children and some adults only see the unlimited lives. Thank heavens for parental controls..Version: 1.12.1
✓ Was really enjoying this...but the latest update causes the game to plague me with ads, and there is no upgrade available to stop them :( UPDATE: I can now see that the game is not going to be playable for very long without boosters, which you will eventually have to buy. Despicable, considering that the game is aimed at children. This game is gone! Pity, because it was fun while it lasted. The developer should be ashamed (but they won’t be)..Version: 1.6.5
✓ Nice to play but in-app purchases a total ripoff!I found this game addictive and have really enjoyed playing. It increases in difficulty at the perfect rate meaning it remains challenging enough but not too much. However I won't be playing this game any longer for one reason - it is an absolute rip-off. I paid £9.99 for unlimited lives only to discover the next day that this feature had gone and I was down to limited lives again. The purchase did not make this clear, which is incredibly dishonest, and £9.99 is a ridiculous amount for one day of unlimited lives. Great game if you're prepared to put up with watching a load of adverts or are happy to throw a lot of money at it..Version: 1.5.0
✓ Great game but…..I’ve been playing this game for years and loving it but not anymore sadly! There are so many glitches to the game now! The daily quest being one, just as you’ve played almost to the final day it defaults back to the beginning of the daily quest! This just keeps happening now! The amount of ads is also ridiculous now and along with all the glitches it’s sadly just not enjoyable anymore!.Version: 1.67.2
✓ Tournament scenario is stuck :(Been playing this for years. 11 days ago got a new iPhone, managed to transfer everything, but now, every 2 days when the Tournament is over, it starts with the exact same scenario, instead of rotating between the 3 different ones. It’s really annoying me! Can this be fixed?.Version: 1.66.1
✓ The game has got too greedyI’ve loved playing this game and a couple of months ago would have given it 5 stars but I’m sick of being stuck on levels for hundreds of goes with no way of advancing but to pay (again). I understand that you have to earn money to pay for making the game but to advance a level by giving in and paying and then getting stuck on the next level too. The game even mocks you. ‘Too bad, you didn’t finish the hard levels’. I’d consider myself a skilled player but this game is getting close to going the same way as Candy Crush did for me. I’m not really getting enjoyment from it anymore as I’m stuck on levels with too few moves to cover actually winning the game without paying up. I’ve spent waaaay to much money on this game and if it continues like this I’ll be looking for something new to play which is a pity as it’s a lovely little game. So many levels don’t rely on skill, just playing again and again for hours or days and then only paying for more moves will complete the game. I’ve won and bought heaps of boosters and they don’t really give good value for money either..Version: 1.11.0
✓ Needs improvementThis is basically a match 3 game with cute graphics. I’ve played every level and while I like this game it needs a lot of improvement. Higher Levels freeze and you have to exit the level (losing all bonuses) to get it to work again. This happened a lot to me when I was at the max level of “Hot Streak” bonuses. They advertise a hard level challenge when the game starts up but I have yet to find it (this may be user error). The cost of a bonus is 70 coins which is very high, especially when the daily challenge award is 1 - 5 coins. 3 stars are very hard to achieve which is frustrating. You’ll end up spending a lot of money to buy bonuses. It will say you’ve missed a daily challenge even if you successfully play it daily and it disqualifies you from being eligible for the bigger bonuses at the end. This happens almost every time you spend 25 coins to play the next level on the same day. The developers are spectacularly unhelpful. I’ve submitted several problems to them and the responses have been amazingly unresponsive. It can take weeks to get a response. The most common is that unless you’re signed in with FB, they can’t help you and even when I signed in with FB, I received no help and they don’t fix the issues with the game even when you give them the levels that are problematic. I really can’t recommend this game until the issues are fixed. Play one of the many, many other similar games until they fix this one..Version: 1.20.2
✓ Ok people really?The boosts are useless and there is this challenge in the higher levels about you get prizes in a certain amount of time if you do almost all the levels at one time. And really I’m only level seventeen and they give me this. They make it EXTRA hard with the time present challenge thing. Like come on you should do that when you are level one hundred or something. I’m level seventeen not level one hundred or up. Please fix this thank you. This is bad in the high levels. I really want the time to expire. It won’t. It takes like the whole night to go away. That’s only my guess. But please fix this I’m gonna rate this zero if you don’t fix this. Cause that time challenge is for levels one hundred and up. And thank you. SIMON Yes I see your point there, #iloveottersandtigers. It is kind of right that you are only level seventeen and we give you this challenge. I will try to make it for high levels like level one hundred and up like you said. Thanks for the feedback. I’ll try my best for updating it to what you just said or what you just suggested. Thanks for the feedback again. I’ll try my best again. Bye #iloveottersandtigers..Version: 1.5.4
✓ FrustratingI’ve had this game on my iPhone for about a week now. I’ve purchased coins that were never received. When I’d try to re-purchase the same amount I’d receive a message, “You have previously made this purchase your purchase will be restored”. The purchase was never restored and the game froze. I turned my phone off/on a few times and finally had to delete and reload the app. I’ve had to delete and reload the game several times (I’m at about 5x’s now) because the game freezes, which deletes all the progress I’ve made. Since it’s a new game I’m willing to replay the levels again but I may be done if this continues to be a problem. Waiting about 4 hours to play in between locked levels is way too long. It’s frustrating! I’m hoping y’all get it together before I kick Simon’s cat to the curb!.Version: 1.13.0
✓ Can’t open app after updateHi there I was in recent contact with you regarding the levels that stayed at 4950. I updated the app but the app will automatically close after it goes to Simon’s Pass and nothing else. I can’t send a message using the app as it won’t fully open so I’m hoping someone can look into this for me. Please help. I love this game - in fact it is on one of my old phones that I continue to charge specifically for this game. Thanks Hilary B.Version: 1.66.1
✓ Glitchy but goodI love the game, but I’m just not sure it’s worth the annoyance anymore. Between the crashing and having to close and restart the the app, and the paying coins to play an extra daily game, and then being told you’ve “missed 3 days” literally the next day when you KNOW you played it before bed the night before, it’s extremely frustrating..Version: 1.5.0
✓ Fun game, except for the price tagThis is a really fun game with cute graphics and background music. I just loved playing it, but soon realized that it was rapidly growing into something of a gambling addiction. I marvel at the reviewers who say they have spent nothing of their personal funds to play this game. I played it for many months in the past and then stopped. I started playing it again about two months ago and have paid in well over $150. The app draws you into the game with in-app purchases that require your dollars for the app’s coins. You use the coins to make your moves. Almost inevitably, you run out, and spend more dollars to buy more coins/moves. I got pretty good at playing the game, and began to predict when I would run out of moves. I could see how I was being set up to dump more money in or forfeit the games and bonuses I had won. This evening, I regrettably deleted the app, as I want to save my money for more important things..Version: 1.60.1
✓ Horrible Game PlayUPDATE: They responded as you can see but it’s still ridiculous. This game is designed to force you to have purchase boost with real money in order to pass a level. I have no problem with doing so when I’m actually having fun playing the game. I shouldn’t have to feel forced just to make it to the next level. On the other Simon Cat game I’m level 600 and something I think. That game I have purchased boost but it’s also designed in a way that the daily bonus and other ways to obtain coins to purchase boost are feasible. Still wouldn’t recommend this game to anyone. It’s a colossal waste of time. I had Pop Time and I love it. Thought this game would be just as good but it’s not. The difficulty on some levels is fine but the amount of moves allotted is horrible. 15 moves to 100 plus items done is ridiculous. Add on to that some have obstacles that take more than one hit to remove. I will never play this game again. It’s ridiculous. It’s like you’re trying to force me to purchase items which I’m not..Version: 1.24.0
✓ Good game but...I have been playing for a fair while and have reached a reasonable level, also I have spent a fair few $$$ for extra moves when I have come close to completing a level after playing it in excess of 100 times. More than the game is worth to me really. But as I advance through the levels I know it is getting tougher and tougher and you want me to spend more money to win...but I wont. I am at level 488 and I have been playing that level so many times and it is impossible to beat it. I think that when a person reaches a certain level there should be better bonus rewards and after so many tries the level of difficulty could be reduced a bit..Version: 1.50.3
✓ Cute game but too many bugsI really regret spending money on this game. Game occasionally freezes after completing a level. Which is annoying because you have to redo the level, even more annoying when you've paid real money for extra moves. Also all my coins have disappeared. Luckily it was only a small amount. I'm feeling a little ripped off.Version: 1.8.1
✓ CrashingIn the last week the game will not start right away and crashes when it does start. I deleted the app, reinstalled and had to start from the beginning again. Please fix..Version: 1.48.0
✓ Player blocks, greedy developersYes it’s a fun game, up until you hit the impossible levels, which start at less than 100. I quit at 95 because it was just not possible to get any further without using their purchased assistance tools, and then you’d need a hell of a lot to get past it. I looked at it mathematically and it’s not just a player block - the maths indicate it’s physically impossible to beat the level. It just got so stupid I gave up out of frustration. Such a disappointment as the game is well thought out. Just designers being too greedy to make more cash I guess..Version: 1.22.1
✓ LOVE IT !Very lively. Feel good even when losing..Version: 1.64.1
✓ Cute but super frustratingThe game is very cute and can be fun, but like many people have said it feels like they’re deliberately making levels nearly impossible to pass without buying something like extra coins and treats. The game is super stingy with allowing players to win coins and treats, too. And it does feel like sometimes they’re miscounting how many points you get for getting rid of “x” amount of pieces in one go — there are versions of games that seem to deliberately block you from clearing certain strategic areas, and then the game has the audacity to give you a “prize” for failing a level 10 times in a row or something. The purpose of the game should be to be diverting and fun, but I’m finding it increasingly frustrating. With all the ads you’d think they’d be a little more generous with allowing people to win bonus treats and additional coins. Also: they have the same 6 “find the difference” games over and over. It’s not fun or challenging anymore and you never know when or if it will even pop up. I’ve actually flipped off the game I’ve gotten so annoyed..Version: 1.45.3
