Property Brothers Home Design for Negative User Reviews

✓ Love the game ,great concept but seriously just a money grabI have loved playing this game and learning about design along the way, but no rewards after completing a level is no incentive to keep going, how about giving some diamonds as a level completion or a few bombs etc instead of keep asking for money to buy diamonds etc which you could still do as well as we all like to make money from a business... why not charge a one of purchase price for the game and get more rewards as we play , I know I would buy it as I have all ready spent well over $200 but now feel I have spent enough on a game with no rewards and just gets to hard to complete a level without spending more ,so it’s time to delete it ... sorry guys no more money from me !.Vixxy100987Version: 1.6.5

✓ Good game but quite unfairI enjoy playing this game. However, the levels increase in difficulty and the items get more expensive to buy, yet the amount you win per level doesn’t increase at all. The time you have to wait for lives is ridiculously long too..DobsdVersion: 2.3.4

✓ Honestly unplayableAt first I was okay with the fact that you had to do a puzzle to get more coins but the levels got way to hard to complete. I also hate that once you use all your gems you can’t get anymore unless you pay money. Also, the game is more about the puzzles than actually designing. Overall the game started fine but just got really bad and unable to be played. I ended up just deleting it. I suggest that you take in the recommendations that people have provided. I’ve seen and read a heap of reviews saying the same thing over and over but yet there has been no further improvements. Step up your game..Alpha GeniusVersion: 1.6.3

✓ Great game, shame about all of the advertsI was hooked on this game and really enjoyed the aspect of completing levels to accomplish something in the room. I didn’t mind the cost of items in the room, nor how challenging some of the levels are. But recently, the creators must’ve become pretty tech savvy and money hungry, as every time you lose a level, you must watch an ad. This means within your 10 energy, you must watch 10 ads which can be with very little space in between depending on the challenge of the level. I don’t mind watching an ad for extra moves (and I believe a lot of people would do this) but putting one every time you lose a level is a bit ridiculous and off putting..HslqiwhndklahVersion: 1.4.2

✓ Waste of timeThe first levels were fine but when you hit levels past 50 they get incredibly hard and you have only a few lives. Why not just have a game just about decorating? Why the stupid puzzles?.Chinook-77Version: 1.6.4

✓ MisleadingLike many games these days, the preview photos are full of the “fun” parts of the game, the design part, you know, what the game is literally named for. Unfortunately the bulk of your time will be spent on a frustrating match 3 style mini game, that mostly comes down to luck. A small pool of ‘energy’ tokens, which are used if you fail a mini game level, means that it can be literally days between actually getting to do the thing you downloaded the game for. This game has great potential but quickly turns into a frustrating, boring, and ultimately experience that isn’t worth the time investment.Darcie1789Version: 2.9.9

✓ A true design game would be nice for a change...I really wish games like this would be advertised as is. In the demo it makes it seem as if you can just pick areas in a home or garden to decorate to your hearts desire but this is not that at all. Most of this game is spent playing a different “Candy Crush” style game in order to win enough coins to decorate one room. And then once you play about 5 or 6 rounds of the other “Candy Crush” style game you only get to make 2 or 3 changes to the room before you’re out of coins again and have to go back to the other game to make more coins. Then that game gets harder as the levels increase so you have to spend more and more time trying to beat the levels which make it almost impossible to finish timed quest in the actual Property Brothers game. All of the decorating games I’ve downloaded have been similar to this. I really just want to find a true decorating game where I have a wide variety of furniture to choose from and I can just play around with it and not have to spend most of my time on some completely unrelated side game just to win enough coins to play the game I’m actually interested in playing. I don’t understand the logic behind this..Licia011286Version: 2.0.0

✓ Ridiculously hardThinking seriously about deleting this game I can’t finish most levels takes days and many lives. Also have to spend money to get diamonds to get extra lives absolute rip off..Jacs interiorsVersion: 1.7.8

✓ 😀Good app, but after level 30 it’s you can bleary eaven beat it and why are there lives? And the stuff you can buy is SO expensive!!!!.The natcatVersion: 2.5.3

✓ Greedy let-down.Prop Brothers show present you guys as stand-up honest professionals. Not looking to take advantage of their clients by over charging or under providing. So I guess I naively expected the same on their app. There are several game apps that are very similar to this one and they are ALL THE SAME. When first starting, the game makes it just easy enough to win rewards. But here is where my first disappointment in you guys. Just like all the other similar games, after making it reasonable easy to win, and get you hooked and invested, the game’s difficulty levels shoots up, the cost of items go up. The game rounds that are supposed to help earn coins or tickets become more and more difficult to complete. You offer double rewards if you win on your first try and if by some miracle you succeed, the doubled $ prize is barely enough to purchase a single item for whatever room we’re working on. The gem packages are ridiculously over priced and does not buy you much booster wise. I could keep going with many mor examples of this app being nothing more than a greedy money grab. At the very least, if you’re going to make each level harder and harder, you should raise the prize $ each time you raise the difficulty level! I’ll be blunt. If you strip down this game app to its base framework, you are left with a carnival game that you know it’s rigged against you. Greedy greedy money-grab. Very little integrity. Shame on you, property brothers..ShadebruVersion: 2.9.2

✓ Great but…I love this game. It’s a fun puzzle re-design game. The only thing that bothers me is that the piggy bank steals all your gems and you can’t earn gems until you play money that i could be spending on candy or stuff i NEED not this stupid time draining game. I will deduct a star for that. Also, it tells you that you can get LOTS OF COINS if you buy stuff and if you want to get something else you have to pay! Another star lost for that. PLAy this games and have fun but PLEASE DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS GAMME!!!!! Edit: i recently bought the piggy bank and then i realised i had been scammed! I had no piggy bank and had lost $4.50. DONT BUY THIS.Cool cats ice cream coneVersion: 2.7.3

✓ Could be a a whole lot betterFirst, I love the puzzles! Lots of fun. But overall, this game needs A LOT OF IMPROVEMENTS. Some of the puzzles are just way too hard. You could spend hours on the same puzzle. And since there aren’t enough lives (only 5), this often amounts to days of frustration (and at this point, boredom). And you have to wait 3 hours just to get 5 tries. Second, this game is a potential money guzzler. And with no real benefit. Same frustration of getting bored after spending hours on the same dumb puzzle. And nothing you buy is a permanent upgrade. Just endless spending. Why can’t you EARN unlimited lives and earn it permanently? Or watch the dumb commercials to earn things? Third, you can’t decide WHEN you use your unlimited lives. And you can’t pause it. Why? This is just dumb. And frustrating. And when use a power up, it is randomly placed on the board (usually in a useless place). You should allow the player to select where the power up is placed? While the design part of the game is okay, the puzzles are the best part. If you fix it, it could become a great game by all by itself! Oh. And it is impossible to get a refund EVEN WHEN THE PURCHASE DOEST WORK! I just decided to never make a purchase again. Not worth it. Rip off. And there are free games out there that are design much better..PlayerPlayer311Version: 1.8.0

✓ 2 Brothers, 1 StarThis game looks like every designers dream game, right? As someone who thoroughly enjoys creating spaces, I was convinced this would be everything I needed in a game. Boy how wrong I was. This game is set up to draw you in and then the levels get increasingly harder and harder and you only have 5 lives to play games unless you spend all of your real world, hard earned money. And some of the levels are just impossible to beat. You can tell they change the game as you play because after enough times of trying and waiting a half hour for a life to come back, all of a sudden the colored blocks fall so you can get a power up. It’s honestly a joke. I have been counting how many tries it takes to beat a level (mind you, I’m TRYING to beat it) and the most games I’ve played to level up is 37 times. THIRTY SEVEN TIMES and you know how many levels you have to beat in order to even buy anything? I’d say the average is 3. So if it takes 37 times to beat ONE level and you need to beat 3 in order to buy anything, and you only get 5 tries until you’re out of lives and have to wait a half hour to get just one of those lives back, you’re sitting at 2-3 days just to buy an overpriced dresser that’s not even you’re style. There are only 3 options for each item you get to buy and most of the time, you’re just settling. It’s not what the rating makes it out to be. I have no idea who is rating it this high because I’ve read so many reviews that feel the same way as I do..Hbil4327Version: 1.6.8

✓ TerribleToo much of the games and not much on the actual design. Should be able to at least pick 2 items to design before you got to play the game. Then waiting so long to be able to play again..Ronise99Version: 2.5.5

✓ Be prepared to spend all your moneyI had to delete this game after getting to almost level 600 (and spending a ridiculous amount of money). It became impossible to play without spending money on gems in order to buy more lives. You have to wait 30 minutes for a new life and the higher the levels the harder it is to complete the puzzles. Furthermore, house decor and furniture gets more expensive which means you have to complete more puzzles. So it is impossible to play this game without spending money unless you are patient enough to wait 30 minutes for a new life. I wouldn’t mind watching an advert in order to get a free life, maybe that’s something they can look into if they are that concerned with making money from this game..Edubz920161Version: 1.8.6

✓ Good butWhen I first joined it was very fun and easy to do and now I’m on level 40 and it’s getting really hard I’m on the game we’re I have to collect 60 feathers with only 24 moves! I consider you should add more moves because I definitely won’t be playing for a while if no more moves are added and no before anyone say “make a purchase” no I’m not because I’m not wasting money on moves that are going to be used. And I’m pretty sure a lot of others would like more moves maybe alteast 34 moves that’s just 10 more! Then won’t have to hear “5 moves left!” after not even 2 seconds this is ridiculous and needs to be sorted out. Great game I enjoy it and plus we only get 100 coins after doing a full entire room that I’ve been working on for atleast 2 weeks!.FhshhrjxndVersion: 2.7.1

✓ A good game but...Man this has the potential to be a great game, however the relevance of the mini games and how hard they eventually get perplexes me. I understand that the game needs to be challenging enough so that it can’t be completed in a day, but it’s near on impossible. I’ll most likely delete this app..MattyD CeeVersion: 1.6.9

✓ Too hard, too many ads, too long to get anywhereAs many others have said, once you start to get up in levels they become just ridiculous to try to pass, they are so difficult and over and over again you have to try to pass even one level. You run out of lives really quickly and it takes ages to refill. Deleting due to this and also they have now introduced silly ads that pop up on every other attempt so it’s just a really annoying game now..Tricky593Version: 1.6.5

✓ BadDon’t download don’t recommend because of coin system you play the same mini game over and over again it is annoying.ProskuledVersion: 1.7.4

✓ Major app glitchesLove this app and play it daily however the major app glitches are getting bad. Nearly every time I finish a level screen is black or glitching out. Also annoying when you watch an ad to get extra moves or diamonds and it closes the entire app with no reward and lose the level you’re on.Rosie7117Version: 2.4.5

✓ Becoming a cash greedy gameI have been playing this game for a long time and, loved it for both the design feature and the gameplay but, recently a number of changes have been made for the worst. Firstly the levels all of a sudden got harder less moves which use your five lives within minutes then, the long wait for a refill, the chest challenge suddenly became a speed challenge and, the worst change is that the 3 hour unlimited lives portion has been removed which was a massive help during chest challenges that has been replaced with a 3.99 gem calendar which gives you 20 gems per day for 30 days which is no good unless you can get through the month without needing to use any (impossible) it clearly shows that this like most other games has become a pay to win. I don’t think I will be playing much longer, really disappointed with these changes 😡😡😡😡.DrilancsVersion: 2.2.0

✓ $$$The game starts out great but then quickly becomes expensive. To release gems you have to pay. The levels become harder and harder, which normally is not an issue, however this game is designed to make you pay... I love the PB’s but likely won’t be keeping the game..MT1986Version: 2.1.7

✓ Absolute jokeYou end up playing the stupid little game to earn money 98% of the time, then you finally get to design one area of the room and you’re broke again. Constant adds for deals to buy money, seems to be the only way to play this game and actually do the design game you thought you signed up for is to give them your bank details. Could be a great game if the point of the game was to design and not play a knock off version of candy crush. Waste of time!!.Uwowoshkqubwe skqiwhVersion: 2.3.4

✓ Games get too hardLove the design aspect of the game, especially with the challenges alongside it too. BUT the games you have to play to get coins/tickets just get way too hard. Lives take forever to restore and on the odd occasion you get unlimited lives for an hour, the games just too hard to complete! I’m stuck on 223, and have been for days. Normally after a super hard one, the next few are easier. But this is impossible. I must’ve played it at least 100 times and still can’t complete it. Looks like I’ll have to delete the app since I can’t do any designing, which is really frustrating.Jdr1506Version: 2.9.5

✓ GlitchesWhen you click on an area to renovate the game glitches, almost like static on a tv and then I have to reboot the game every time.Brogzz_Version: 1.5.0

✓ Really tried to give this a chance...I really tried to give this app a chance but it seems it’s less about being a fun design game tied to the Property Brothers and more a Candy Crush-esque game, but more money-hungry. The piggyback with diamonds is the worst concept ever. They dangle this bank in front of you in every level with the hope that you’ll finally break down and BUY the diamonds that you’ve EARNED by playing the game. Who thought of this??? Also, the puzzle games start out easy enough but you get to the point where it starts getting unbearably difficult that it takes multiple tries to get through one level before you end up running out of energy which then results in it taking days to finish renovating ONE room. Who has the time to check back multiple times a day to replenish energy and finish earning enough coins or tickets to finish a room...not a project...but ONE ROOM. This game put WAYYY too much focus on these puzzles and making them so difficult that you hardly even get to design, which is the main reason I, and I’m sure many others, downloaded this app. In my opinion, they made the games difficult so people would break down and pay for diamonds to be able to quickly get to the renovation portion of the game. What a fail..ZalnoorVersion: 1.5.9

✓ Too hard to move upI downloaded this game because I wanted to design like they did. However they make it so hard to play the games to earn coins to design you stay on one level for days on end. That completely takes the joy of of designing which is what the app is about. Would have given 5 Starr’s if not for that . I have been on the same impossible level for over a week. I am not a gamer just love home design and understand that I have to play the game to move up levels but this is impossible to enjoy especially since I have moved up to almost level 200 on the game. They should address this ..AriebellngVersion: 2.4.1

✓ It’s one of those games….It would be fun, but it’s one of those games that secretly has candy crush inside it, take that part out and I’m in.BeechamboVersion: 2.5.6

✓ Why are you forcing us to pay???I like the game - it’s fun and cool. What I don’t like, however, that when your piggy bank is full, they force you to pay to open it. That should be clearly spelled out when downloading the game - I’m going to delete the game as soon as my review is posted..Gary MTLVersion: 1.6.4

✓ Forced to watch ads that cannot be clicked awayI downloaded this months ago, and have nothing bad to say about it. The puzzles are entertaining, the home design choices are a joy to play around with. However about two or three updates ago, ads were suddenly introduced. For a free game, I don’t have any complaints- it is what it is. However, the problem is that you can watch an ad for extra moves, but even if you don’t watch it for extra moves, you’re forced to watch an ad anyway. There’s a ‘X’ to close it, which I did, but doing so repeatedly takes me to the App Store page?! Surely if we do not need to watch an ad for extra moves, then the option to click it away should be present? It has been a complete turn off for me and I have ended up closing the game because I cannot click away the ad at all. Please fix this problem, because I am certain that this is a dealbreaker for many. I’d be willing to pay to remove the ads, but there’s no option for it that I can find either..Rei'annVersion: 1.9.8

✓ Fun until...I downloaded this game when I saw it in an ad and though ohhh this looks like a fun designing game and then at first I liked it but then when I reached level 60+ the levels are almost impossible! Like we have 20 moves to get rid of 100 things it’s unrealistic! As well as my diamonds my piggy bank saying it is full with 600 but I only have 20 diamonds. I will not buy more cause it’s pointless. I understand you have to make money but if you want people to play your game I suggest making levels realist (letting us have more moves), you could also suggest to get rid of ads by paying so you can still get money..AgywisochsbwpapzjzbsgwkxkxpzVersion: 1.6.4

✓ Very fun game but needs some improvingI think this game is fantastic and I love it, apart from a few things that just don’t make sense to me. First of all the levels get so hard to complete it isn’t much fun anymore. I’ve played games like this before and I end up deleting them because I can’t be bothered to solve the levels anymore, and secondly the prices of furniture and demolition etc start of cheaper, and then begin getting very expensive. Overall you have a great game and by making these changes, it would be 100% better.BettleberrymanVersion: 1.6.3

✓ Too Much of the “Other” Game, Not enough decoratingSo, here’s the deal. I love the part of the game when we get to make choices (although you only choose between 3 options that may or may not be your style and don’t get to choose the placement, as it appears in the Ad I saw) and decorate/revitalize spaces. However, the amount of time you have to spend on the “other” game you have to play to earn “money” or “tickets” far outweighs the time you get to spend playing the game you actually want to play. I’m talking at least 10:1. So, for example, spend 10 minutes playing a candy-crush offshoot type game to earn money in order to be able to decorate/paint/etc. 4-5 items/area within, say, 1 minute. Then you are out of “money” and have to play more random games for more. You don’t earn or accrue any of the game’s currency over time/daily, etc. You can play the games to get some, but diamonds can only be purchased with actual dollars from your bank account. I think I’ve spent like $20-30 this week and have decorated 2 rooms and have completed only part of a home exterior and garden. So, in a nutshell, lots of real money needed and time playing another random game to get very little time playing the decorating portion. I hope this gets fixed! Otherwise, I’m going back to playing “Design Home”. Sorry guys! I do think your placement and timing for pop up ads for purchasing things is genius. Tricked me several times! I give you a slow clap and head nod for that!.GraysmompcbVersion: 1.6.1

✓ Hour of Unlimited LivesI love this game. Totally addicted. On level 3000! BUT- I would LOVE to be able to pause the time when I win levels and get 1-3 hours to play. Most of the time I don’t have the time to sit and play for 3 hours and then I lose the time. It’s frustrating when you’ve earned it. Currently I have 7 hours of playing time and will only be able to take advantage of 1 hour. When you dedicate so much time to the game, being able to pause it and take advantage of your free play time would be much appreciated....KateMKayVersion: 1.9.7

✓ At first it was ok! Became too hard very fast.I hate that you have to do so many side games before you have enough for the next upgrade. And it comes to a point where it’s almost impossible to pass a level without having to use one of the helpers I bet it’s a way to make you spend money on it. ... not fun.Kall96Version: 2.5.6

✓ What r they thinkingOk so I was playing another house/room designer game and I was getting a lot of adds and suddenly this game piped up it looked rly rly cool and fun since in the ad there was no money no adds and no add on games after it piped up a few more times I gave in and downloaded it as soon as I got it I went on and it started to tell me what to do and how to play(wich is normal in a app like this ) it gave me some blue prints and I didn’t understand it was like irl blue prints so I just did what ever I wanted until I RAN OUT OF MONEY and of course there was no mention of money in the add so I then had to play a rip-off candy crush game to ONLY GET£750 WHAT ON EARTH R THEY THINKING!!!!!!! They should have mentioned how hard it is to read the blue prints and how hard it is to get money can the makers of the app pls get back to me in the as problems ,thank u.LillyiaeltonjhonVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Not funHonestly this game sucks. having to play a level 30 times to beat it is not fun when you only get 5 lives every 3 hours. stupid way to make people pay. not worth it. if you wanna play a design house game without the matching, download house flipper or house designer. if i wanted to spend hours on a level i would just download candy crush….QuihnyVersion: 2.6.0

✓ This Game Could Be AwesomeSo, I’m really enjoying the design concept of this game- when you can actually do the design part. This is another Candy Crush copycat where you spend more time trying to complete these ridiculous puzzles in order to “earn” money to actually do the renovations. Each piece of the renovation costs a lot of money so you end up having to complete at least three puzzles just to incorporate one design. You only get five chances to complete a puzzle before you are out of lives. Then they want you to spend your money to buy more chances. The puzzles are not easy. The one thing that kills me is that each time you complete a puzzle, you earn gems that go into a piggy bank. Here’s the kicker- they limit the number of jewels you collect and when the piggy bank is full, the only way to empty it to use the jewels to buy more lives, you have to pay $2.99- even though you earned the jewels. You need them in order to buy more chances to solve the puzzle. I love when you get to do the decorating, but it takes forever to do that. What’s going to end up happening is that I’m going to start resenting Drew and Jonathan because every time I get frustrated from not solving a puzzle I hear them say “Oh, so close.” Really Property Brothers? I just want to design houses!!.Tufo1Version: 1.6.2

✓ Needs improvementCool game but the mini games make it impossible to complete! I’ve been stuck on the same level for so long!!! So I can’t fix up the house when the mini game is impossible to pass! If it didn’t have that issue the game would we perfect. But will no longer play as it’s impossible to pass some levels..Nicoletyler28Version: 1.4.7

✓ Love this game but it’s sooo hard!I’ve had to spend a lot of money to pass the hard levels which is probably the developers intentions. But anyway too hard to pass the levels and over having to spend money to do so, plus waiting for lives to renew makes it a pain. Starting to put me off so will probably delete if it keeps being like this..Lolo loopsVersion: 1.6.3

✓ Game Designed to Addict It’s PlayersI’m very disappointed with the Property Brothers for having an app that is designed purposely to addict those playing. It does this by requiring you to earn dollars to design rooms by playing a matching game. The matching games are manipulated to get harder and harder to keep you playing. When they get too hard so that you’re playing the same round for days, it magically gets easier and you suddenly win with no change in strategy. This causes a release in dopamine or some other neurotransmitter that keeps you chasing the next win. I don’t use this app to play a dumb matching game. I like to design. I also play Design Home where designing a room is not tied to a silly, unrelated matching game included only to manipulate your brain chemistry. Shame on you Property Brothers!! It’s getting harder and harder to win the matching games so I cannot even finish the timed design challenges. The costs of designing is getting ridiculously expensive and it takes days or weeks to finish a design. I really don’t care to do any furniture restoration. This is done to include one of their wives in the game. This should be a separate game for those who enjoy that type of thing. I may stop playing this game because it is just not fun anymore and I’m doing less and less designing, which is why I started playing in the first place!.KNU DisappointedVersion: 2.3.3

✓ Addictive and so much funI’m addicted to this game! They just need to make the Hard Level easier. I give it a go everyday just to collect more coins to decorate. Both parts to the game are fun the only thing I find is the “Hard Levels” are too difficult and take a bit of fun out when you have to wait ages for your life to collect again. Love it - top rating..Jess.hvr01Version: 1.5.7

✓ Frustrating/Hard/DUMBThis game was super fun to start off with. The levels were super easy and because of this I would get more money to design rooms! Then the levels started getting to the point where I would spend all of my lives on a single level. From then on the game sort of started forcing you to buy gems just so that you could get 5+ moves or starting power-ups. On other games, once you win a level you have a chance to get 50% more money of what you won if you watch a video. However this isn’t the case for Property Brothers. Another thing is how many moves you get for a level. Sometimes with the Hard Levels there just AREN'T enough moves! This can be extremely frustrating, due to the fact that just 1 move would change everything. This is what I mean when the game forces you to buy gems. Overall I like the designing, but the levels are just so frustrating/too hard!!!!😡😡😡.Liesl ToimeVersion: 1.7.3

✓ Daily BonusOk, I give up on many things you could do to improve this fun game, and when it first came out I had read where you were going to lower the price of items to buy to finish a room and actually for a while that’s what I thought I noticed, now the amounts have gotten huge. During this crazy time we are having with the Coronavirus, how about some free play? I can go through my 5 chances in under 3 to fine minutes and still never finish the level, heck, sometimes it takes a day of continuous trying and I still may not clear it 😳😷🤒🤧Final Update: do you actually care what so many of us are trying to explain to the developers of this game? Because it has almost become ridiculous how difficult some of these levels are. Update: by taking the time to read other reviews it made me feel like I am not the only one having issues, please please please update because I truly enjoy the game but the developers have made it almost impossible. Original review:I really enjoy the game but some levels are too difficult by far, if that’s done this way to make you have to purchase more moves it’s really unfortunate because it’s happening very often and I am on level 106; so I know how to play games. All other games at least give you a daily bonus or credit of some kind, please make a few tweaks because all that said I really do enjoy the game..Penny BaumannVersion: 1.5.5

✓ Misses the markThis game should be fun. It’s not. As a designer, it should be, because it’s made by designers- right? No. Choices are very limited- and there are times when choosing between 3 items is not fun because I wouldn’t actually choose any of those options in real life for my clients. Or, the items are way more expensive than they would be in reality, so you’re constantly trying to earn more just to put in one more thing. Having a game within the game to earn tickets, money, etc. is extremely annoying. First, the games don’t give you very much of a payout- if you can even beat the games in the higher levels. I spend more time trying to get more tender than I do actually designing. Second, having to pay to empty the piggy bank is frustrating- just seems like this is a ploy to earn more money- just like paying to get extra diamonds, money, etc. You don’t get very much for what you’re paying in. There’s too many games that want people to pay for extra “money” already, and in this economy that is just not okay. I would not recommend this game. I tried to give it a go, but now I am deleting it. There’s other designing games that are way less frustrating than this one. Less commentary for each item placed would also be helpful. Sorry, Scott bros- not sorry..Pilotwife5Version: 1.9.7

✓ Why can’t we make more money???Well... I’m on level 1385, so I won’t pretend that I’m totally disappointed in the game, but here’s where I’m getting frustrated: you never make more than $975 when u complete a puzzle, but the prices to remodel go up for each project. For instance, my rehabs are averaging $5-6k per task, but you only make less than $1k per game. That is ridiculous and unnecessarily time consuming. On hard levels, they double your money... but never your tickets! That’s stupid because hard levels are extremely hard... actually regular levels are extremely hard if I’m honest. Don’t get me started on the inconsistency of getting gloves for a restoration project. I’ve played two rounds, back to back, and not one single glove appeared. But I digress. Overall, it would be great if the amount earned for completing a puzzle was much higher... no less than $2500. And similar to games like toy blast, you should get a bonus for moves left over after completing a level. I’ve cleared a level with 15 moves left... it would be awesome if each move was an extra $100 in addition to my winnings. But nope, winnings are always somewhere between $750-$900..CrysJ214Version: 1.6.3

✓ Money Grab!This game would be really cool if it wasn’t an obvious money grab. It seems that after the first half hour of gameplay the levels are deliberately made to be too hard to pass so that you use consumable items (which cost real money) and watch ads; this makes the game very unenjoyable since it can take multiple days just to clear one level without spending money. It’s really disappointing that they make the candy crush style levels so infuriating to play because I think I would have really enjoyed this game otherwise. Although the game seems very appealing at first I would recommend uninstalling after your first play rather than wasting your time watching ads over and over while failing the same levels again and again. Don’t waste your time or money!.My names taken :(Version: 1.4.3

✓ Level 3445- Over $ 15,000 for a ceiling? Really?I will be uninstalling this game if the developers don’t listen to all of the very similar reviews! As the levels progress the items shouldn’t get more expensive with the same money reward for winning a level. As you get further on in the game the prices of things get completely ridiculous. I had almost $70,000 in coins and all that got me was a floor, three walls and a window? Also where had the piggy bank gone? Now I’m at level 3505 and it’s $12,600 for a plant , $16,800 for a rug ( in a bathroom) and $12,500 for another plant. Most levels you get under $1000 for passing... not impressed.Kimberley-87Version: 1.6.8

✓ Need more diamonds and livesThe idea of the game is good. There are two things I think should be taken into account, getting more diamonds with buying it with actual real life money and the time limit on a new life. If I’m to pick which game to play... Property Brother’s and let’s say... Candy Crush and Best Frends , I would play the Candy Crush or Best Frends. The only reason why is because the time limit to regenerate a life is way less then 30 minutes. Best Frends is only 5 minutes. It also lets me win more lives, coins and gold so I don’t have to use my money from my pockets to buy more. I think that if the Property Brother’s game is updated to have a short regenerated life time and also let us be able to earn more diamonds this would be a gunner game. Right now, I’m down to only 20 diamonds and will not get more unless my buy them. This entire day I was only able to play about 4 times because I’m on a hard level and it takes about 5 minutes to use all 5 lives. Do the math... 1 live equals 30 minutes, to get all 5 lives you will have to wait 2 hours and 30 minutes. Or wait out the 30 minutes and play that new life in under 1 minute and 15-30 seconds..PizZaLovers01Version: 1.7.1

✓ Could be better.Property Brothers is a really fun game but there are a bunch of things that should be different. The first thing is that levels become really hard and almost impossible to beat. I have been stuck on a bunch of levels for a bit of time and I am stuck on one now. When you’re on the second house you usually need to play two levels to get enough coins for a decoration (unless you make it on your first try and get 2X which is hard) which I find annoying. Thirdly, if you finish all your energy which lets you play the game, there’s nothing you can do until you get more energy which takes a few minutes and no one wants to wait until you have enough energy to play again. I think that the events should last longer you only have about 3 days to complete 2 parts which is hard to do. Lastly you have only a little bit of gems to spend and than you have to pay real money. Overall the game is very fun and exciting. I recommend it to anyone who likes challenging puzzles and designing. I like how there are little conversations between the clients and the brothers after you put in decorations. Thank you for taking the time to read this..Liuy potatoVersion: 3.1.7

✓ Cash grabGreat game until you hit the wall. Unless you are willing to spend a ton of money don’t bother. I deleted..Taylor DossieVersion: 2.1.7

✓ Fun but impossibly hardIt is a great game with so much potential, it is just so hard to pass any levels which forces you to pay for more lives and items. Been stuck on 1 level for over a week with no way of passing without buying things. So sad!.Lizzy 202Version: 1.6.7

✓ GlitchyJust got the app like 10 minutes ago everything was going really well but as soon as I had to select a side table and side table decor for the lounge the game glitched and wouldn’t work anymore.Rewiew1011Version: 1.5.6

✓ RepetitiveThis was one of my favorite “match three games“ since it’s just a little bit different by eliminating groups of blocks rather than swapping gems, and I really liked the decorating portion of the game. Similar to Homescapes, but with much more realistic remodels, that I thought might be giving me ideas for my own home! But has anybody else gotten to a high enough level to realize that the game just keeps repeating itself? Thus, the reason for my low rating. I'm on level 1378, and I was feeling like I had played many of the levels previously, but I started the game again on a different device and just reached level 400. Within the last 10 or 20 levels I realized my two devices are matching up game after game, despite the vast difference in level number. Also, as other reviewer’s have stated the game does not give you any additional earnings the higher you go, but the cost of the remodel is becoming significantly higher. At this point I now have to win at least 10 levels for every single item that I “purchase“ for my upgrade. As for the people who complain that you have to spend real money to play this game, they are wrong. Yes, you do have to spend real money to get gems, but the gems aren’t necessary to the game. No, you may not be able to refill your lives, or pay for extra moves without them, but that doesn’t mean that they are required..JudaehvnfVersion: 1.6.7

✓ Very slow progress in the actual design aspect of the gameThe coins earned per level are not enough and the lives only refill every 30 minutes with a maximum of 5 lives. I am on level 76 and have only completed one room and 93% of the second room. I love the game but it’s taken a day and a half to get to where I am and thats not very far! Will most likely delete as it’s not a game you can really enjoy for a long period of time having to wait 30minutes each turn and/or 2.5hours to make any progress. And if you’re not very good at the puzzles, you could use all 5 lives in 5 minutes and earn no money and have to go back the the waiting game lol Anyone not wanting to spend money on gems/refills, probably not worth the download..Baybee NaeVersion: 1.5.3

✓ Fun but frustratingFun to play to pass time, love the design elements and choices. However, there are a few things that I find quite frustrating that could be improved. The cost of coins/tickets/diamonds required to add design elements are so high, it can take ages to complete a room. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a challenge, but sometimes it’s so tedious just to add a plant, and it is very difficult to earn coins or diamonds unless you pay to play. Also, does anyone actually read or enjoy the constant pop up conversations with the clients that happen after every design choice is made or placed? I find it redundant and not interesting or integral to the game play, so I surely can’t be the only one who always hits the “skip” button to get out of the conversations immediately? It would be great if there was an option to only see what the clients preferences are for design choice and elements, and turn off the whole conversation bit with the brothers. Lastly, while I get adds are a part of the free to play, they’re constant, and most of the time 30 seconds. It would be nice to have more adds that are a shorter time frame. That being said, it’s still a fun and relaxing game, but it could use more options and improvements..Mary1krrVersion: 3.1.7

✓ Alright!!This game is so astounding, and it really makes you feel like your really designing a actual home and I love that about this game. But the only problem in my opinion this might not happen to anyone else but it glitches me out every time i try to go into the game. It’s really annoying but I tried deleting the game maybe if it will refresh it but its gotten worse. Since this is happening I’m going to have to delete the app as it’s probably just me getting glitches. Overall without the glitches this app is so fun, I played it for hours and I really love designing so that’s why I love this game sooo much!! Definitely recommend!! Great Job this App Is Great Without The Glitches!!.Touch footy GirlVersion: 1.8.6

✓ Great concept.. if you want to spend real money.Was super fun to start with. The games were fun, then almost impossible once you get higher up. Then, once you progress to the higher levels, it becomes almost impossible to get anywhere without spending real money. Now the ads have also started; loose a level? Watch an ad. Do anything? Watch an ad. The cost of items as you get higher get really expensive. When a set of cushions cost as much as kitchen cabinetry, you’ve lost me. I get this game is designed so people spend real money, but there are still folk out there who like to play these games (even if it takes a bit of time) without forking out real cash. Its a no from me now, unfortuanelty..Kill some timeVersion: 1.8.8

✓ PassThis is way more of a block breaking game then it is a building game. You spend 95% of the time just trying to get coins to design a house with limited freedom. Also you keep putting gems in a piggy bank and there’s no explanation as to what they are for and it costs $3.99 for no apparent reason..You.owe.me.for.time.wastedVersion: 1.6.3

✓ PurchasesI’ve been playing this game, which I love for years. I have also made several purchases, activating the passes etc. over the last week I tried to activate the pass, I paid for it… nothing, I contacted the support team several times with absolutely no success. Eventually I had to go through Apple to get a refund. I stupidly thought I’d give it another go at activating the pass… again nothing… I shall now request another refund and never spend another penny on this game. It’s a shame because it is a very addictive game and makes me sit and relax! I rate the game 5 stars but the support nothing. So have given 3 stars.Landy kVersion: 2.9.4

✓ The levels are impossible!I’m only on level 50, and the levels take me so long to complete! The game itself has great potential, I love the graphics, the style, and the overall look of the game, but I feel like giving up and deleting the app because the levels take so long! Please fix this!.Westpac67Version: 1.5.9

✓ Good potential. Disappointingly Hard.As the title suggests, this game has fantastic potential to be the best game out there however, as fun as it may be, it is ridiculously difficult to earn any coins to complete a room. If you are like me and don’t want to have to ‘pay to play’ then it is going to take you forever to get anywhere! The mini game is fun but it gets so hard, every-time you fail, you lose a life, then that life takes 20 minutes to regenerate (unless you want to pay) and one mini game isn’t even enough to buy any furniture items. If they want to keep people interested, I suggest making the game more about the designing and less about the money. They should look at successful games such as Design Home, which allows people to earn money far more easily and therefore play a lot more..SNM-ChickVersion: 1.5.4

✓ Uhg please read this...This game was REALLY good until the levels got hard. And because the levels got harder and you don’t get very much energy, it became quite tedious. Especially since you only get 700-800 coins from winning when you need at least 1,100 coins to get 1 thing built. Please fix all this somehow it’s awful.MarinaaaaaaVersion: 1.5.1

✓ It’s a no for me.This game is fun and all until they ban you for absolutely no reason, I would strongly recommend not getting this game because you might love playing it and then they just decided to ban you for no good reason. Every day I check to see if im un-banned but it still says the same thing every day and I have emailed them multiple times about it..Jj2x1Version: 2.5.4

✓ Property Brothers game is a great way to kill time & your bank account!I enjoy playing the game, I’m on level 2999 so I must! I’m not happy that I’m order to get there I’ve spent hundreds of dollars in about 3 months time because the higher you go, the harder some levels are to reach. At least I now receive 10 lives when I fill my meter. I’ve read the reviews of people still only getting 5 lives. There should be more diamonds awarded, maybe for every 20 levels or so, that’d makea nice reward. My BIGGEST complaint is when you win a free hour you MUST play it immediately. There should be a way of banking that! One night I played for THREE STRAIGHT HOURS because I had just completed a room for the first free hour then passed to level 2000 and won two hours. Unfortunately for me, I won at midnight so I sat here until after 3:00 a.m. so I wouldn’t lose my free turns. Sometimes I only pass 3-4 levels in that free hour because some levels are so difficult to get through…unless you pay for it!! I’ve been trying hard NOT to spend money on the game anymore but I still get frustrated and can easily spend $20 in a night! Being on a fixed income, that’s money I SHOULDN’T be spending on a game!!.SusieQ1961Version: 2.5.7

✓ It’s fun but.....The game is fun but once you get past a certain level (60+) the game becomes impossible to complete because they’ve made the levels too hard. I hate how it costs you a move to explode a bomb to TNT etc, you’ve just lost a move tapping on it so why waste another igniting it? Completing a level has cost me my life limit about four times, then having to wait until the lives are filled again because I refuse to buy extra diamonds. The furniture and accessories are quite expensive as well, if you want people to continue to play the game and have fun doing it, maybe lower the prices of the furniture and either give more moves for the harder levels or make them a little easier....I’m not saying make them super easy but using 4 moves to remove a piece of wood is ridiculous.MadameM19Version: 1.5.7

✓ Loved at first sight....This is probably the first review I have written. If I don’t like a game I usually just delete it and move on. But I’m hoping beyond hope that this game improves or I will just delete it. I loved this game at first. The easy levels were fun and the hard levels were just hard enough to give you a challenge but keep you engaged. Now, I’m on level 639 and it seems like it takes me weeks to get enough $$ to finish a house. And forget any of the extra challenges, I don’t bother anymore because there’s no way to make it through in time. Even the easy levels have become hard and sometimes take me days to complete. They have “boosters” sometimes but if you can’t even get through 1 level you obviously get no help there. The only way to move on is more lives which of course you need gems and of course they give you no way to earn gems, you can only buy them. This game has unfortunately become a real cash money game and I don’t play games like that. I want the option to spend my money - not feel like I’m being forced to spend it just to get anywhere in the game. Really Disappointed with Property Brothers game..SpiritedShenanigansVersion: 1.6.3

✓ Bring back the weekend challengeThis game is great I’ve been playing for years, but I wish they would bring back the weekend challenge where you win 10 games and then get three hours of free play. That’s where I would spend most of my time playing and now I’m finding it’s mot really worth it. I just might delete the game..Addictive663488Version: 2.2.1

✓ Good to start with but games get too hardI enjoyed this app to start with, the games to earn money to renovate the houses were a bit annoying & unexpected but I got through then fairly quickly and built up my first few houses. Now the games are so difficult some take days to pass without buying bombs and stuff to get through them. The game is obviously designed this way to make you want to buy things. But it just makes it super boring. Like I’m here to design houses, not to get stuck on a hard level of the candy crush style game for days on end. To begin with I was happy to pick the app up several times a day, and now I just can’t be bothered because I know it’s basically just me waiting for the level I’m on to let me win and move on. Boring boring boring. So much potential, ruined by decision making centred around making max money instead of customer experience. I’d rather pay a monthly fee to full access without the stupid games than be forced to buy bombs to get past hard levels. Think it’s time you listened to the review feedback you’re getting and find a better model for the game. Or sack the agency designing the game..SmattzVersion: 1.9.9

✓ Cool but mmmmmI really loved this game as I watched the tv series and loved the architecture and design elements. I found this game really fun and liked the mini games to get extra money, however I didn’t like that I had to always play the hard mini games to get enough money to purchase one customisable piece of furniture. I had a full piggy bank and didn’t want to waste my money in buying all of my hard earned gems. I hated that I couldn’t receive five more turns and ended up having to wait 30 minutes to get 3 more lives. I was really sad because I loved this game and thought it was THE BEST out of all the designing your house games. I am really sad to give up on playing this game. 😭😭😭😭😭.OoooommmmaaaahhhhVersion: 1.7.1

✓ More matchingLook if you enjoy matching games this is pretty good. Given the cartoonish graphics the projects and styles are limited but pretty good although this is no Redecor in that respect. My question is, who decided that people who enjoy design want to spend hours playing matching games? They have nothing to do with each other! I played the first couple of projects until the matching games picked up in difficulty, then deleted it the same day. Too much of the same thing. I’m back to playing straight out design games..Games-girlVersion: 2.9.3

✓ Fun but very expensive. Does not give enough rewards.I love playing this game and I love the room designs. What I don’t love is how much money you have to spend to advance in this game. They also don’t reward you with anything except coins. I have millions of coins at this point but I don’t need them. What I need is boosters and diamonds but they very rarely reward you with those. You have to beat 1000 levels in order to get one of each booster. Or you have to earn thousands of coupons and play A LOT for 3 days straight in order to stay on top of the leaderboard. Lame! I play other games that reward with boosters and gems all the time. The makers of this game seem to be very greedy because they are not willing to give decent rewards for all your hard work and would rather you spend real money. I’m on level 27,000. Imagine how much money I’ve spent. I don’t even want to know! Give better rewards especially to your long time players! Lastly I saw someone else’s suggestion about letting us choose when we use our free play instead of having it be automatic and go to waste. Great idea! Oh and please bring booster rewards back to team chest and possibly rallies. That would be amazing!.QueueissueVersion: 2.8.5

✓ Fun but not at the same timeI’m the same! I enjoy this game but some games are so hard and takes days to win! A lot of games have ads to watch in order to collect money or jewels.. make the game achievable or Loses the fun.Bex1121Version: 1.4.6

✓ Too expensive!The “price” to actually design anything on this game is ridiculous. The price increases gets higher as the levels increase, but the rewards stay low. The only way to actually advance is to buy credits. Fun but will be deleting. If I wanted to pay to decorate - I’ll do it in real life..SSMaiorga57Version: 1.6.4

✓ Loved this game…until they got greedyI really got into this game. Not only are the puzzles fun, I love being able to design spaces. They finally added teams which was great but they keep taking away fun parts of the game. The biggest change happened this weekend. The weekend challenge was always everyone’s favorite. We could earn boosters by passing levels on the first try. First you get bombs, then dynamite and finally a barrel of TNT. As long as you passed the round on the first try, you got to keep the booster. It helped you stay in the game longer. If you lost a round, you lost your boosters and had to start over to regain them. I am at the point where I only like to play the game on the weekend because of the boosters. They should have them all the time like most other puzzle games. I also really did like the weekend challenge. Everyone on my team is complaining. They also give us next to no free time so we can get past levels we are stuck on. We used to get free time for reaching certain milestones and achieving goals. All of that has been taken away. I paid a lot of money to play this game but that was when they were also giving me something of value in return. This is just a rip off. Bring back free play, boosters and the weekend challenge!!!.Anni PalazzoloVersion: 2.4.6

✓ Wouldn’t botherThe app does start really good. You have to complete games to earn money to renovate houses and there are other tasks along the way. The higher up the levels you go the more money you need because the renovations become extortionate but, the harder the games become to complete them and the less money you earn. You can get some additional help to get you through the levels (bombs, detonators, extra lives ect) but you need ‘diamonds’ to pay for them. The only way to get the ‘diamonds’ is to buy them, there’s no way of winning them throughout the game. Without spending your own money the game becomes impossible to complete. I was sucked in and ended up spending way more money then I’d care to imagine on an app and I found I was being invoiced but the purchase wouldn’t arrive. I requested a refund through apple which was declined and through the app directly but they ignored me. Honestly - save your time and money and play something worth while..Sazzzza09Version: 2.9.8

✓ Gets too hard ... feel forced to spend $$I’ve been loving this game for about a month and have gotten pretty far (level 1254) and in the last couple days the puzzle games have gotten extremely hard. I’ve been used to getting stuck on one every once in a while but now it’s every other level, I have to try 5-7 times sometimes just to beat it- maybe more! I am easily frustrated by this and have ended up spending money just to be able to keep playing to beat a level. It’s not worth it. Also, the further you get in the game, the more expensive everything becomes within the game, making it more and more difficult to complete rooms. On top of that the actual home design part is only so-so. Most of the designs end up being beautiful but you don’t really have many options. The layout etc is already planned, you just get to choose between three styles of couch, art, plant or whatever. Sometimes there is just too much stuff in the room, but you have no say in it. Overall I have enjoyed this game with its combination of puzzle game and home design, but with the frustration and amount of money I’ve spent just to get though levels, I’ll be deleting it after I use up my last gems..Ssdgm123Version: 2.0.9

✓ Very disappointing... $ drainedI’ve never written an app review before.... but I have to say this app is ridiculous. It’s great fun creating rooms, the puzzles to earn $ are fun and challenging. But once you get through the first few levels it gets harder and harder, meanwhile a pot plant will cost you the same amount as a couch!!!! I’ve got both in real life as do a lot of people reading this I am sure and I can assure you I spent a lot more on my couch than my plant. Once you reach a higher level it’s almost impossible to progress without spending $... and to be honest I don’t mind spending... they have created this app to make $ after all. But the amount you have to spend to progress even just a little is disappointing, a waste of money and a real turn off. I’m deleting this app. Would have been happy to stick with it if it was an affordable game but it’s crazy! Don’t download. Don’t get sucked in. First time I’ve ever paid to play a game and totally ripped off. Like I said. If prices were more affordable I would have been happy to spend a little for the experience. Feeling disappointed and taken for a ride..##ASVersion: 1.6.7

✓ Needs regular design updates!This game is great fun. The designs are questionable, but the concept is great and the mini games are actually enjoyable! This would’ve been a 5 star review but I have completed all design levels for a few months now and there is no regular updates for design. I have to wait at least 3-4 weeks for a new one and then that gets completed within a day or so. The game needs regular updates otherwise there’s just no point in continuing to play once you reach the end..AlleexxiieVersion: 1.7.1

✓ Tired of these “hard levels”I downloaded the game for obvious reasons. To design. The levels started off easy, as it should, and rapidly became such a stressful time. It seems as tho every other level is a hard level even if the game doesn’t announce its a “hard level” if it takes more than my 5 energy’s to complete, it starts to get annoying. I want an easy game that I can relax with and this just gives me a headache. The more you play, the more expensive it is to unlock just one item and you only get like half of that amount by winning one level. At least if I finally beat a “hard level” don’t give me just 2x points, add more bonus items so I can use them in 2 min when you throw me another hard level. Just doesn’t make sense. If I wanted to play difficult matching games, I’d download actual matching games. I downloaded this game to design bc I’m into that stuff!!! And I know I’m not the only one complaining about this bc I’ve read sooooo many other reviews saying THE EXACT SAME THING. I’ve tried to wait off on writing a review, but I’m just at the point of deleting the game, regardless of all the hard work and time I’ve put into unlocking rooms. I gave 2 stars instead of 1 bc I actually like the way the rooms turn out when I finish them. Too bad it takes me like 2 weeks to complete one room..Anvior13Version: 1.6.1

✓ You can’t get passed levelsThe thought of the game is good but in the end you can’t get passed levels and everything is so much money..Magic 2869Version: 1.7.1

✓ Nearly 5 stars, not yetGood game need to make purchasing things cheaper or mini games easier to win for coins. 5 stars if this changes.Ninjaturtle777Version: 1.4.7

✓ Meh could be so much betterI do love this game. I have had it for just about two years now. The part that bothers me is it becomes way to difficult to play, not that the levels are any “harder” but it’s almost made to trap you into wanting to buy diamonds to keep playing. I came for the design aspect and the further in the game you get the more actual puzzle levels you play just to be able to do the design part of the game. I did enjoy having the option to watch adds for additional lives instead of spending actual money, I absolutely hated that it would make you open your App Store after every add before moving forward with the game. I actually stopped playing for about six months because it became so difficult and lost the fun aspect that initially drew me in. The adds helped a little but there are definitely some kinks they should have worked through with them. Not having full volume videos and not making you open your App Store are the two major factors. I am sad to see the free option leave and I’ll likely not play for awhile or if at all again. It stresses me out at this point which is the opposite of what it should do. After reading many reviews I’m clearly not alone in my thoughts on this..CkcgclVersion: 2.6.1

✓ Awesome game BUT.....I love the Property Brothers and this is a great game with awesome graphics. BUT unfortunately they have made the games that you have to play to win money to continue in the game so hard to win and some virtually impossible to win, unless you buy extra turns or advantages. You also only get 5 turns to win a game before you have to wait for a fairly long time to get them back to continue playing or alternatively spend more money to buy more lives/turns. I have deleted this games as it is addictively fun but I have spent too much money on a game! Sorry Property Brothers I’m out but still love your Reno show..DiDaalVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Fun but money wasterIll admit, it is a fun game to play.. however, i swear its rigged because once you reach like level 60 or around there, it is almost impossible to pass the levels because there is not enough moves and then you use all of your energy very quickly so you are not able to play for like 30 minutes to around 2 hours while they refill. The time challenges are also way too short also taking everything into consideration. There is more but i guess that is the most annoying problem in the game because if you run out of moves, you have to spend 90 gems to get such a small amount of extra moves(5) and then you can easily run out of moves and then you have to keep spending and taking it all into consideration together, it can get very annoying at times and really makes me want to throw my phone because its fun but this is really almost a dealbreaker especially when you get almost addicted to the game. However, if that was fixed, the game is actually very fun and i would say probably better than all of the other types of these games put there for so many reasons (especially because its so realistic and I especially like the tap feature in the levels instead of the swiping gems situation ) + more , all of the other games also have way too many ads and the graphics are horrible and have so many pop ups and “tutorials” that just waste time all around and it is just so annoying which is why i really like this game over the other ones also..Jaz2xVersion: 1.7.7

✓ Became unplayableThe star is for the good game I played before it kept crashing constantly. I updated in the hope that this problem would be fixed but it actually became worse. I was only up to the exterior of the first house! Even when working, the game was becoming irritating due to the unoriginal match 3 puzzles and the increasing prices of items. How many times have we seen this? It would be better if puzzles were knowledge based e.g. word puzzles. At least there’s no luck involved then. From the part that I did play, the game had the potential to be good. The decor choices were nice, though a bit similar each time. I may come back to this game in the future, though if there’s no improvement it will be delete..Ratmum CVersion: 1.6.9

✓ What happened??This was such a fun game to zone out with and now, all of a sudden there are ads playing in my game every other minute and I can’t skip them. It’s turned an enjoyable game into a frustrating ad push. Were you not making enough money from the in-app sales you also need to now rake in ad revenue from countless ads? What’s the point of giving me infinite lives for an hour if I’ve seen at least six ads in the first 11min? This sadly has turned into a game I am going to delete :(.Sparkz83Version: 2.1.0

✓ Love hate relationship with this gameFun but ridiculous pricing. My friend also has the app and when she fails a level she is offered an ad to get more moves (as opposed to buying gems for more moves which is the only thing I am offered). Same game but for whatever reason they don’t offer me an ad. The issue with this is that levels become so impossibly difficult and you have to wait 30 minutes for a refill for ONE life and then still can’t complete the level because of the difficulty. This would be okay but it costs THOUSANDS upon THOUSANDS to purchase anything (thousands for pillows? Really?) and you only get between 900-1500 for each level. It takes FOREVER to complete any room and it takes the fun out of the game. It is just a reason to spend actual money on the game which literally no one wants to do. Would be fun but it’s just becomes too annoying..Anie1234Version: 2.5.3

✓ Gets Worse As You Get Further Into The GameLoved this game to begin with. Now I’m more than 4000 levels in (no reward at level 4000!) so I’m just repeating levels I’ve already done. Also, the coins you win for completing a level do not increase as you progress despite the items you have to buy getting close to $20k each! When you can win the maximum of $950 coins on most levels (it doubles on hard levels - about 1 in 4/5 are classed as hard) that means you will have to do around 16 levels (minimum) to buy one item! I have spent more than $200k on the room I’m currently on & am only about half way through. 😕.Debs2912Version: 1.7.6

✓ Love the game...BUTSince downloading it, this game has been one of my favourites - I love the decorating aspect and even though some levels take ages to pass, it’s pretty easy to accumulate coins to finish projects. However, recently ads have been added - I was ok with them when they gave you rewards such as gems or extra moves, but now they play not only when I lose but also when I win, so I can’t escape them. As such, I’m really considering stopping playing the game because it just isn’t enjoyable having to click off each time an ad plays with now reward. I’d really appreciate it (and so would everyone else) if ads were only kept for rewards and not played every two minutes..EnehebebakkdbtbudxjfbdsvskfVersion: 2.2.5

✓ JCLStarting to not like the game. Too many changes and way too many advertisements. 😕☹️😣.Jj Gg LlVersion: 2.5.5

✓ Enjoyable but......This is one of my favorite games to play. However the higher I get level wise the more frustrating the game gets and I just want to quit playing. It’s supposed to be enjoyable but... I do have a few complaints. First of all, when you’re playing and you earn diamonds you should be able to use those diamonds and not have to pay money for them. That’s just wrong. Second of all, the same games are repeating themselves with less moves to use. If by chance you happen to have a booster to use you should be able to choose where to place it. Usually it ends up in a place where you don’t need it. Third, there are only two ways to get boosters without spending money. You should be able to earn boosters throughout the game and not just when you complete an entire home, or the 20 tickets whenever the ticket thing is going on and then at the very end of that. And no, I don’t want to spend my money to buy them. Fourth and last, I’m noticing in the higher levels tickets are fewer on the board. What’s up with that?🤷‍♀️ One game I play they are always giving out free time and boosters. That is so appreciated. Thank you and hope to see some changes in the near future..Willow52Version: 1.9.9

✓ SadFalse advertising.ShreezycaniculeVersion: 2.5.8

✓ Hard moneyIt’s so hard to win money I never got past level 41 and it would be nice if it had more choices and the pillows are the hardest part sorry for the bad review.2区QFP1Z4Version: 2.8.6

✓ Extremely Disappointed in AdsUpdating my review to add- if your game is rated 4+ then the ads you allow should not be rated above 4+. The content of the ads are awful. The version I have is fantastic, I would give it five stars if it were simply about the game. I do not have to deal with ads but my older daughter put it on her phone and her version has ads. I needed to stay awake last night so I played on hers to earn her some coins so she can do the room designs. The ads for another game were vulgar and sexual and unbelievable. It’s one of those life choice games- the way they portray women and then men cheating on them is shocking. That game said it was for 9+. I would not want any 9 year old seeing women being treated that way. And I’m going to say it here because other parents need to know- there was a very suggestive scene of a cartoon women performing a sexual act on a man and his wife walks in. This ad didn’t just pop up once it was repeated over and over. I’m hoping it was just because I was playing late- she is not allowed her phone that late. But if I see it today- the app will be deleted. It’s a shame because the game is great. You really need to vet which ads you allow on your game. Disgusting is the only word I can think of..Beth.michael05Version: 2.5.5

✓ Not a design gameI didn’t sign up to play a crappy colour blocks game (which is what you spend most of your time doing on the app). All I wanted was to design some spaces but you don’t end up doing that at all. Get rid of the crappy colour blocks, they’re pointless!!! Also what’s with the game telling you how a space should be designed?? That allows no room for creativity. I wanted to like this game and I had high expectations after seeing an ad but I’m only disappointed. I hope you change the way the game works because if I wanted to play a knock off candy crush I would have just downloaded that. I urge you to take a look at the game ‘redecor’ which is also an interior design game… and that’s it! You also have real people voting on your designs which makes you the money in the game and also allows for creative freedom. I will be uninstalling this game as fast as I download it. If you make some tweaks though I do reckon this game has a lot of potential. I guess it’s just a shame because it lacks so much and it doesn’t have too.Richier1ch1Version: 3.0.4

✓ More candy crush, less property design!!This game is all about making money, it gets way too hard way too quickly unless you are willing to buy cheats! Also 90% of this game is about completing “candy crush” like games and 10% actually doing any property design, like you’d actually expect when downloading it..DissapointedDesigner!Version: 1.7.8

✓ Brothers Game.This game is addicting but the only thing is it gets harder throughout the tasks that you do and you spend more time playing the puzzles than you do the actual game because as you get on through the game the price of the items gets more expensive so you keep having to do the puzzles to gain money to pay for them, so your not actually decorating the places because you keep having to earn coins. It’s frustrating because as the levels get higher it’s harder to complete it’s like candy crush. The level of hardness gets more. It would be a good came if you didn’t have to spend more time earning money than you actually do decorating. It’s really time consuming having to keep playing like 3 or 4 levels at a time just to pay for one item..GhcxlmbVersion: 3.0.1

✓ Too difficultThe most satisfying part of this game is making all the new design choices. However, earning the money to make those choices is a frustratingly slow process. Perhaps I’m just terrible at this type of color matching game, but no matter how long I stare at a board before making my first move, it’s just too difficult to predict how eliminating certain blocks will affect the rest of the board. I often know if I’m going to lose before I’ve run out of moves, which is frustrating. I regularly exhaust all five lives trying to complete one round, so after all that, I’ve earned no money to progress with the part of the game I actually like. Impatience is how this game earns money—want more lives? Spend some gems! Ran out of gems? Buy more with real money! I would have to spend real money everyday if I wanted to make any sort of daily progress. Cannot recommend, but the graphics and design “reveals” are super satisfying. If the game developers made a time management or hidden object version of this game, I’d be all over it. As it is, it’s basically unplayable (and not worth the money I’d have to spend to move forward)..Reviewer 67001Version: 2.2.7

✓ Too many adsGameplays good and the option of having two extra moves for an ad is a good idea but to keep throwing in ads whenever you complete a level is so frustrating and off putting..DessssaaaVersion: 2.5.3

✓ Tedious cash grabThe design part is fun but you have to play some match the colours game to earn coins to spend on your project. It’s slow and quite tedious… unless of course you chose to spend real money on premium currency. Honestly if the app had a free trial and then a purchase full version for 2-4$ I might actually buy it… assuming there was no colour matching nonsense. The design a room part is well done and fun. But since they went for the please spend cash to keep playing approach it’s bye bye app from me. I don’t mind paying for my entertainment but this approach just irks me..Dramatic ColouraturaVersion: 2.5.6

✓ I’m deleting this game right nowThis game tends to glitch so you can’t see what item your placing in the room which can become really annoying and frustrating. Also when you get further into the game your mainly playing mini games when all that you really want to do is design the home. Eventually the levels become really hard which means that you keep running out of moves , which means that you keep losing lives and keep having to wait a long time for more . Sometimes I can be stuck on one level for a whole day. This game is also a complete money grab because you have to pay actual money to get diamonds so that you can get extra moves to pass the level that your on. I think that there are much better design games than this one..Cheeky charleeVersion: 1.4.3

✓ $20,000 for one choice?!I honestly loved this game so much - I had even spent money on in app purchases when the game was more attainable, which I have never done before! However, I have been playing for a few months now and am considerably far along but have ultimately stopped playing the game in favour of close alternatives; the reason being that it becomes unbelievably expensive?! I am having to pay around $20,000(!!!) to make each choice - I don’t know if this is to extend your playing time so that they can keep up with adding new homes, however I would have continued to favour this game if you were paying a reasonable amount and simply waiting for updates, since the extreme difficulty e.g playing 15 levels to get a $20,000 plant is too much?! Whilst this game is incredible at first, there are sadly numerous other games out there that are incredibly similar but remain achievable and fun e.g homescapes!.Olive Gray 1995Version: 1.6.2

✓ Lovely game but but butAhh, it looks so nice and it’s really fulfilling when you actually managed to create a room but it’s far too frustrating having to build up the coins by playing the puzzle games so much. The way they have split up building/renovation is far too complicated and the cost of things seems to get higher all the time, just when you think you have finished then you’re paying $1500 for a lamp.I don’t want to be putting real money in while I am playing the game And actually would rather pay for the app upfront and then just play it. So I deleted it and it’s a shame because it is very nicely designed, the puzzles are a lot of fun, the humour and home design tips are nice and I really loved the little films with the actual brothers... it just needs a little bit more thinking about. The gem piggy bank as well - too Confusing and thereThere is no way I would pay real money to buy that again I would rather just pay for the app and be done with that part of it and then I could enjoy the actual point of the game!.Rcodd1Version: 1.7.1

✓ Don’t be fooled by the ads...So basically I was bored and wanted to get a new game to play! The Fixer Upper game shut down or whatever, so I decided to download this one. I was expecting sort of a similar concept to the Fixer Upper game after watching the Ad, but it is so different that the Advertisement doesn’t even seem like it’s advertising the right app. See it seems like the point of the game is to design houses, earn money which allows you to design MORE houses right? WRONG. The point of the game is to design houses, but not really. You purchase a cabinet or piece of furniture, then play a boring basic puzzle game, then do it over and over again. And you’d think that they would at least TRY to focus on the puzzle game right? WRONG. It was the most basic candy crush game, but instead of candy it’s boring colored squares. I mean if you’re that bored, sure get the game, but if you actually wanna play a fun game, play DESIGN HOME!!! You design houses which allows you to get profit, and design more houses! The houses are from everywhere and it allows you to design a certain style, using actual furniture that allows on websites and such. It may not have two twin men celebs to represent it, but it makes sense and I’ve had it for 2 months and haven’t stopped playing it. Hope it helped!.Optimist_247Version: 1.5.2

✓ Bad in the long termThis game was an absolute blast to play! At first… The designing is very fun throughout the whole game and the puzzles are challenging yet do able, until you get to level 150 and above. At this point there is absolutely no difference between the hard levels and the normal ones, at times, the normal ones are harder. Apart from that, everything is overpriced like crazy. Like I’m sorry, 90 gems for 5 more moves!? That’s 18 gems a move! There should be a trade sort of thing where you watch an add for 5 gems, I would be watching so many adds, which is good for the developers and for me cause I’m winning more levels. I have one last complaint, but this isn’t that big a deal. Sometimes I feel like the game is telling me which design chooses to take. Like certain things are like they HAVE to go together. And at the beginning of a renovation project the clients give you a list of what they want in the house, but it’s a bit of a waste since you never get to see it while your actually renovating and once again, the game chooses the things for you so there’s no real point of it being there. This is an absolutely amazing game to have for a road trip, but as I said in the title, it’s bad in the long term. Thanks for reading :).Noona NibblesVersion: 3.4.2

✓ Don’t bother to download unless you are willing to get your wallet out!!!This games has great potential, but it is completely ruined by having to earn money that is difficult to earn! You spend all your time trying to pass the levels and constantly run out of lives! When you complete a room you get $100 that does absolutely nothing for you! I’m close to deleting as the enjoyment is lost as you NEVER have enough money to complete the rooms! Very frustrating!.Kimbob77Version: 1.6.0

✓ I’m on level 1600 and spent $0. Here are my thoughts:I’ve been playing this game most days for a couple months now and I really do enjoy the candy crush rip off game as well as the designing part. I’ve spent NO actual money on this game, so don’t believe the review stat say you have to spend money. If you have some patience you can spend zero! It really is a matching game (candy crush style) with designing a room being more of the “reward” for doing so. Some levels can truly take hours or even day to finish (if you don’t have a free hour and are working off of your 5 lives). I’m up to level 1600 and I’d say that I loved playing the first 1000 levels, however my rating is going down rapidly due to the following: 1. Ads are starting to pop up randomly which they NEVER did before. I get it, it’s a free app, but I’m annoyed that they just started showing up. 2. The cost of choosing design elements has gone up a CRAZY amount! It used to cost around 1200 coins, now a chair or plant can cost 8000! Doing the math on the percentages, the room I’m currently designing will take me over 100,000 coins to complete. That’s almost 100 levels of the matching game. Kind of insane guys. I really hope you fix this!.ElleellieellenVersion: 1.6.8

✓ Fun but....I like it. It takes too long to get 25 stars to complete the daily activity. Why even have a 0 on the spin????? 1 could be the lowest at the very least. Thank you..AskannetteVersion: 3.3.1

✓ Game is incredible, levels are ridiculous.The game itself is amazing, the graphics, the gameplay, even the cost of things is good which is hard to find in a game, BUT there’s absolutely no need for levels 50+ to be so hard to get through. I finished a build and was given an hours free energy and spent 20 minutes of it on one level before I gave up. Such a shame because the game itself has HUGE potential..Buildbro, nono.Version: 1.5.8

✓ Used to be so goodI really enjoyed this game but lately it’s been bugging out constantly. It takes AGES to earn cash for furniture items unless you’re playing all day every day. They also trying to add a team feature which just isn’t necessary and has decreased the quality and level of functionality of the app by 1/2. I’d never experienced a major crash or obvious bug until the last two updates. Now it’s all over the place. I’ll change back to 5 star when they sort this all out again. I appreciate there are no ads but a buggy app is just as annoying as tacky advert scams..ToriCeylonVersion: 2.0.3

✓ Terrible rewards for completing each mini game.After completing a mini game, You earn the equivalent of a few bucks in this game when everything costs >600 in-game currency. The energy system is so outdated it's sad that they still have to use it..BryiiannmnnVersion: 2.5.6

✓ Awful!!!Don’t bother with this app if you’re interested in home decor…have to play puzzle challenges to get meagre sum of money so 85% of the time you play these puzzles just to get enough $$ to finish a room. For an actual home makeover, try Design Home.ModerateMillieVersion: 2.6.0

✓ Could be a lot betterGood, but it’s extremely apparent that the game is money hungry. It has a lot of potential but it takes a big hit when it makes it incredibly difficult to pass a levels because it wants you to pay with your money for extra moves or cracking open the piggy bank. If your interested in playing, keep an eye on your level. You go up levels very fast in this game. Once you get to 145, you really start to notice what I mentioned. I’m undecided on whether I’ll delete this app, but I am leaning more towards delete. No use having a app that just wants your money. However, graphics are really quite good as is the designs. Not as good as some apps but it’s pretty good with a clear picture and easy to navigate controls which make it a plus. To the developers though, being this greedy is how you lose out and plummet against other rival apps. A much needed change in direction wouldn’t go to stray..Bellabella84Version: 1.6.5

✓ HmmmStarted off good... now it takes sooo long to even purchase one item. The mini games have got too hard now no fun anymore..KdkxksksksoalskcmcnvkfkdVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Hard levels for low rewardThe game is ok. Although you need to pass several levels to even afford one change on the design. One level gets you approx 800$ and flooring costs around 1,5K! It takes me good 4-5 days to decorate the whole room! Also several of the levels are hard to pass and some are designed to be much harder so that you buy extra gems in order to get some helpful tools to pass the level. I am on level 311 and it is absolutely impossible to pass. I refuse to pay extra cash anymore just to pass a level on a game! I am thinking of completely deleting it and getting some other game..KamcaPFVersion: 1.6.5

✓ Yet again disappointment comes my way…Hi again. Please read this because many others have this same complaint. In my previous review, I rated this game a 3/5. I change my mind to a 1/5, and if allowed I would rate it lower. I explained how the mini game is very time consuming considering that this game is suppose to be about home designing. In this review I’m going to explain some other of mine and many others complaints. First of all, I believe we should have more or infinite lives since it takes 30 minutes to retrieve another live if you lost the mini game too many times. I have to admit the format of this game is spectacular, but I hated the way you have to do a mini game to earn money. I think you should actually be able to earn money for each room you design. The second complaint many people have is gems. At the start, it looks like your earning so many gems from the mini games. But then when the piggy bank is filled you have to PAY. Developer, do you want people to be entertained by your games or just made this game for money. Which is probably true for almost every developer. But really, you have to pay for gems. Gems are suppose to be currency in this game!! If you haven’t read my other review, I talked about how the mini games are pretty dumb and shouldn’t be part of this game. Sure, there are many other people who love the mini games. But in my opinion, I think you should either make the mini games easier, or just overall get rid of them. If you read this, thank you for putting concern in your game. I have to admit that I love how you have clients, and I really love the game still. But because of my complaint, I don’t enjoy it as much..Reviewer07548Version: 2.6.1

✓ Ads??There used to be ads to continue playing levels which really helped - but they seem to have disappeared. This is a great feature to help get past super hard levels! Love the game but losing this feature makes me not want to play anymore. Fix it..Rosie!123Version: 2.5.9

✓ FrustratedIt’s a great game, but hard to keep interested as the restock of lives takes too long! Often times , it takes a very long time to move levels. Especially after 500. I quit..Habs500Version: 1.7.7

✓ Great to start with...This game seems fun when you first get it! But the constant repeat of buying ONE item and then having to play a level only to gain about half the money you need to purchase another item gets old REALLY quick. You have to play 2 mini games to even afford furniture when you really get into it. And the mini games just get too hard, consuming energy and needing you to repeat them over and over. Takes you about 30+ mini games to even finish a room? I thought the game would be more about decorating and less like candy crush — I was disappointed..AbdiwnaosbdVersion: 1.5.2

✓ Home Design FlopI was really looking forward to downloading this game because the advertisements showed a new and unique home design game. What I wasn’t expecting was having to complete so many near-impossible levels to get a small amount of coins or tickets (when compared to the cost of items), making me lose interest in this game quickly. It was addicting at the beginning, but shortly after I reached level 100 I realized how manipulative this game actually is. I still enjoy the game and the idea, also the in-game bonuses, rewards, and the graphics for the homes and characters are great, BUT I could work on completing a level for a solid 2 weeks without getting any good combinations for the matching game, go through the weekend challenges and be stuck on a hard level, yet as soon as the weekend is over I magically have the right combos to complete the level? It is so sketchy to me that their algorithms force people into paying actual money in order to get boosters and pass levels!!! It is just not what I was expecting from this game at all, especially with the Property Brothers name attached to it. If you’re looking for a fun, easy, home design game this ain’t it sis..Blacktiletapper01Version: 1.5.2

✓ Great but games are impossible!The game is great but the hard games are pretty much impossible! And one life every half hour??? So frustrating I have deleted it!.Jorja BayleeVersion: 1.6.2

✓ I just want to decorateWhy is that dumb block game a part of this? I just want to decorate.Tania HartVersion: 2.5.8

✓ Greedy BrothersI really enjoy this game as does my team, we think the chests should have diamonds in them especially when our team works hard to get to #10. And the 100 coins you receive after spending thousands and thousands to complete a client challenge is insulting. The Property Brothers only care about their pockets and not the players lining them. They are greedy and unappreciative. A as me bring back the boosters to the chests. How greedy do you need to be in a game people play to escape from the real world. Seriously..Bacn8rVersion: 2.5.6

✓ Honestly, I love Property Brothers. .But this game was just not what I would have expected. I love design and being able to see things come to life, but after already having paid for a bunch prior, and being unable to complete some, what I would say are impossible levels to beat without paying more, it completely took the joy and fun out of this as it slowly started to look more like a pay-to-win game and I’m just not into that. I figured maybe it was something in the algorithm and that eventually it would let up after replaying over and over countless days and what not without having to pay again, but it just wasn’t the case. Some levels are actually impossible to beat without using some form of boosters which you can’t actually earn from playing on your own, but rather from buying more diamonds or boosters alone. . This just isn’t what I expected this game would be like.. seems like they created something like Homescapes, only that game actually has opportunities to keep playing and advancing in levels without actually have to always put down money. So, in my humble opinion, I can say I’m not impressed and as such, I’ve uninstalled this..Michelle SWVersion: 2.4.5

✓ Anti climacticThis game was very much that. I started and designed a room which was fun ! And that element of the game is great, but completing levels of matching things to earn the money to do more Reno’s after was very time consuming and painful. You don’t get many lives to use for levels which is a ploy to get you to buy more. There’s at lease 4 other things on the main screen that you have to spend money on to get those perks - which are completely unnecessary to assign as a paid add on. The levels get really hard really quick which brings me back to the fact you don’t have many lives to use. I gave up on this game after 2 weeks as I wasn’t willing to spend the money to complete levels and was not making timely progress on the Reno’s to keep me interested..Reneead93Version: 3.1.0

✓ Be careful of unauthorized purchasesI do really enjoy this game however, I’m going to be deleting this app due to numerous unauthorized purchases. I have had several issues of the game charging my visa for purchases I have not made. No refund has ever been issued for any of these claims and customer service is non existent. Complete scam. Be careful when using this app or making any in app purchases..GigicalebjessVersion: 2.3.2

✓ FrustratingI have been playing this game for a couple of years now. And I have spent quite a lot of money too. I love the concept, I love the graphics, I love the rooms, I love the puzzles BUT…… for what ever reason they have now bombarded you with adds, seriously after every game. And not just short adds but the long ones too. Also some of the adds are glitchy. I find I spend more time watching adds than actually playing the game. I am very disappointed as this WAS my relaxing down time. not so much anymore…. So it’s Off to the App Store I go..Kath2502Version: 2.2.7

✓ Terrible!The actual game is cool, but when it comes to the challenges, they’re impossible to complete! Let’s not talk about the amount of stamina you get given until it reaches max! I have been stuck on the same level for 6 days now and i’m getting sick of it! There’s no way you can complete those and do all the renovations without it taking like a year or 2! Please fix this ASAP! Maybe find a more easy, efficient way to get coins, because i’m definitely not gonna go buying gems just so I can get coins! It’s so ridiculous! 🙄.ANGRY AF KID LIKE WTFVersion: 1.4.3

✓ DifficultThis was fun until the levels got way to difficult. Then your waiting for so long to get lives back. Need to revamp this game..LisaAB77Version: 2.5.4

✓ Great to start with but expensive and hard as you get higher.This game was great to start with but now it’s ridiculous. Takes forever to get through some levels and I mean forever. Even the so called easier levels. As you get higher in the levels the higher the price to buy things too. The bonus levels go before you can gain enough tokens or points. Very disappointing..Daisy maizeeVersion: 1.8.4

✓ OkSo when I first downloaded this game it was in the car coming home from Florida and I live in North Carolina so it was about an eight hour drive. I needed something to pass the time so I downloaded this game because I love designing and building things. And at first the levels were very easy to beat but once you get to level 55 the levels get impossible. Also if you don’t pass a level on the first try it takes a life away and once you run out of life’s you have to wait 20 minutes each time to get one life. Also you are helping clients the whole time I thought that you could design ur own house for yourself. But no. Also you r probably wondering what the “levels” are and this game is more of candy crush or solitaire. Because that’s the levels and most of the time you spend in the levels so it’s not what it appears. You earn money by beating each level. And with the money that’s how you by stuff to redecorate the house. I do like how you can go back and change the houses that you designed previously. And THERE IS NO ADDS!!!!!! But the re is so many in app purchases and it takes up all the room on ur screen. So if you are really desperate for this game do it get. But if your like me I would rather have gotten a game similar. Because none of the other reviews told me this so I thought 💭 t was a good app but boy how wrong I was.I hope this was helpful have a amazing day !!❤️❤️.HORSE GIRL 290Version: 2.9.9

✓ Good….BUTOk I know a lot of people out there would disagree with me but I have to let it out publicly. I actually enjoy the game I like the furniture they offer you, however the two builders interrupt you every time you do something and on the ad it doesn’t have them matching games that you need to do so you can get something it also takes about a day or so to finish a room let alone a full house. Also i know I haven’t done this on any other app that has the same problem but It limits your amount of moves whenever you play one of those matching games which can get super annoying. Again I haven’t done this on any other game but why can’t you do a different game instead of the matching game? I mean there are tons of others but you choose that one? I mean you could do them escape ones where you have to pick a way to get out of the mess or you could do a cleaning game like the game chores or something like that! I’m sorry for the bad review but I have to let it out 😔😔😔😔.Youtube12899Version: 2.2.7

✓ Major DisappointmentThis app is about one thing only, making more money for the already rich Property Brothers. It is not a game about design - as the design options are few. You are required to play through several layers of unrelated games to earn cash or tickets. Completing a level is difficult at best. It takes 3-6 explosions just to clear 1 wooden box and there are many along with other obstacles that must be removed. Bottom line is that you’ll spend hours trying to complete a level to earn a fourth or third of what you need to purchase the opportunity to design one piece of the room - spending as much as $2000 for a plant! The reality is that they want you to buy extra lives and the explosives to complete the level. It’s funny - after spending hours or days trying to beat a level, all of a sudden the game gives you numerous bombs and you’re able to complete the level without any problem whatsoever. How is that possible? It’s by design, to keep you hooked. If you’re looking for a design game or app - this is not what you’re looking for. This is nothing but an attempt at a money grab! I thought better of the brothers. Guess I was wrong. Now I know some will say the brothers aren’t developing the game, but they are allowing their name to be used and I’m sure they have some say. What could have been an awesome design game is just another bubble busting game. My bubble was busted for sure..Designer.wannabeVersion: 1.4.0

✓ Would be great but...It’s starts off great and then you quickly realise that you can’t get anywhere in the game without making purchases. And for someone who can’t afford to keep buying the currency, it gets tiresome to wait for another life in the game every half an hour. Basically you play block matching games to earn cash to buy items and further your renovation, except the games get harder and the items more expensive. So you lose lives quickly with the multiple game attempts but never make enough money. The only way around this is to buy ‘gems’ to replenish your five lives. It’s taking me ages to complete a room because of this and I can’t keep buying gems. So I’m afraid I’m looking elsewhere for a game that’s nice to sit back to and not more and more frustrating..ShadowprancerVersion: 1.4.2

✓ Great but needs changesI really like this game but it can get frustrating as the cost of furniture is ridiculous. It’s cost me £169,442 to complete a small apartment!! If the furniture is going to be that expensive then you should earn more coins per level as the most you get for a hard level is around £1900 and half of that for a easy level. Maybe have more than a £100 reward for completing a level would be better. I wish there were more than 3 options per piece of furniture or choose the furniture and get to change the colours? maybe have free reign over designs like being able to add or demolish walls etc..SammyBear341Version: 2.0.5

✓ It’s Candy crash and not home designIt’s a shame, I love the show and the visuals of this game are well done but it’s 95% of candy crash to get money and cupons and 5% of refurbishing houses. As long as you progress it gets impossible to earn enough money and you can get stock for one week in just one candy crash game being unable to do anything else. Of course, you need to play several levels of candy crash to be able to buy a sofa, so you can be stock with one room for two weeks. My friends love the show too but they all uninstalled it because they got bored of playing candy crash. I think the company is just lying to your users, you are giving this game the face of property brothers while the game is all about candy crash. The are things like the pig bank that are a hook to steel your money, be careful. Im very disappointed..BachicharocksVersion: 1.6.5

✓ A waste of timeThis app has the potential to be such a good little game. But it’s incredibly annoying. I downloaded the game because I like designing things, 1) there’s only three options which I think is pretty limited 2) Jonathan and Drew literally speak every second and it gets pretty annoying. 3) the levels get considerable harder so it’s taking days just to finish 1 room (which is like 15 things). 4) it takes ages to get the money / tokens together, for example three lots just for one thing like painting the walls, when the levels are ridiculously hard you lose your lives before even being able to do the walls. 5) the bricks that multiply each other if you don’t match next to them; how bloody fast do you need to be? I’m matching at the top and they’re multiplying down below? Ridiculous. If they had a free roam mode where we could just design that would be ideal; but this is nothing more than just a kids game, not inferior design as 99% is spent doing the puzzles..HaidksownfielwnkxofVersion: 1.5.9

✓ Good game fun but mini games are badI loved this game I loved designing the rooms and the mini games were easy so it was easy to get money to make the rooms but the levels got so hard I spent all my lives on 1 level and I did not make the level which is so annoying cause I waited for so long to get a few life's and boom there gone it’s not fair. Also the sofa chairs are so expensive and so are the others they are the same price they are all like IOOO dollars I don’t have enough money for them cause of the mini games. I have to wait when I lose my life’s. Worst game ever!! Please fix this and make the levels easier because it’s frustrating thank you.FnfnebeebrbdbsbdbwgwgwbVersion: 2.0.6

✓ BoringThe game is NOTHING like what the ad shows! The levels are to boring, the mini games are to hard, and the things to put in the house are to much money! in the first day I deleted. Other than that game is O.K..IkhvugkvgyuifVersion: 1.6.4

✓ I love this game but...I have 600 gems in my piggy bank but can’t access them. It says I can upgrade my piggy bank to store more gems, but why would I if I can’t access them? Gems can get you more lives and moves in the game. The only time I had enough gems to add more lives was the first time I played. Ever since then I have earned a ton of gems but cannot access them from my piggy bank. I’ve tried to look my problem up on google and every review I’ve seen says that the app creator has not answered the question of why nobody can access their gems. I love the game because of the levels, and I love the levels more than actually customizing the rooms. The thing is that it is extremely hard to play the levels because if you get to a hard level and can’t achieve it, you either have to use your boosts or if you don’t have any boosts you have to wait at least 30 minutes for 1 life. There are rewards you can achieve to have infinite life for an 1 hour to 3 hours, but once you run out, and you have enough gems in your piggy bank, there is no way to access them. Also, to refill your lives or add 5 moves to your game it is 90 gems, and you only start out with 100. I am on level 902 so I obviously like the game, but would like to express my issues with it..AlexWiley810Version: 1.8.8

✓ Bad prize design but great gameplayYou only get a new life every 30 mins and buying tokens is expensive. The game itself is good but my main gripe is how prizes are awarded. It’s a hard game that you need to spend money on but when you complete levels or win prizes, you get an hour or 3 hours free play that you can’t bank. This means you can essentially win several hours free play but you need to use it immediately. If they allowed you to bank the free time prize I would rate this 5 and invest more money in tokens. As it is, I waste my free time prizes..CheakylolzVersion: 2.0.4

✓ Don’t be fooledLike a previous reviewer said...this has the potential to be a great app. Like most others the idea of this app sounded great, however you soon realise the game you downloaded isn’t much more than candy crush. Initially, you get to design the spaces, by building up credits in the games which is great. However, the further you progress the more expensive items become. This means you spend your time playing a stupid amount of candy crush style games to get past a level and win a few hundred coins, which becomes increasingly frustrating. The only way to move forward with the game is to spend money. I’d rather watch adverts than play any more block games. I have deleted the app and would avoid downloading unless you want to play block games..NMT-82Version: 1.6.6

✓ Takes too long to get moneyI was so looking forward to this game and it was fun to start with but the games you have to play to get money in order to buy parts for the room get harder and harder to the point you have to play the same game 5 or 6 times to pass it and then you run out of lives so have to wait 30 mins for 2 extra lives and you end up using them playing the games to get money !! All this game does is winds you up and tries to make you pay your own money to get more lives and it’s not worth it at all. If the games weren’t so hard and didn’t take so many goes to pass then it would be quite fun but it’s just become annoying and I’ve only had it for two days..Kimi LouVersion: 1.6.1

✓ Love the game but could be betterI’ve been playing this game for a while now. I’m about 3400 levels in. My issue with the game isn’t the fact that there is no way to earn free diamonds, that doesn’t really bother me. It’s how difficult it is to accrue coins after a certain level. I’m on level 3421, where you can earn up to 975 coins for beating a level (1950 for hard levels). Many of the pieces in the design challenges cost 8,000 + coins. So you have to play about 10 levels to get enough coins to add one furniture/decor item in the design challenge. I don’t mind the match 3 games, but I downloaded this game mainly for the design aspect. Having to play so many levels to do one thing is quite annoying and time consuming. I also think it would be a good idea to add an option where you can see how much of a room you’ve completed once you get to the third room of a challenge. If you press the arrow button while you’re on part one or two of a design challenge, it will tell you have, let’s say, completed 79% of the current room. But once you get to the third room, the arrow is gone since it’s the last room, so there no way of knowing how much more you have to complete before you can move on to the next challenge..NotsomontanaVersion: 1.7.4

✓ Rich peopleEnjoying the challenge, but why are the furnishings so expensive , who pays $1000 for a throw rug , who spends $1000 on a couple of pot plants , a small Ottoman is over a $1000. Reduce the price on all the parts and I would enjoy the fame more. It makes the time challenge impossible.TrinitynzVersion: 1.4.6

✓ FrancescoLove the show and just started the game ….. as soon as the puzzles start get impossible and require instore purchases I’m deleting app.LllfranklllVersion: 2.6.0

✓ GreedyTo start with this game was fun, but now I can see it’s all just one of those games that you have to spend money on. There are no day rewards or videos to watch to give you any rewards to help with the lvls that just get harder and harder as you go. You only get 6 energy a day and then have to wait 20 mins to get one more. Again no free options to get more. I’m more than happy to watch ads to earn things to actually play the game, but the amount of money you need to win this game is def not worth it. If this game ever comes up with other options to earn things u need to win I’ll think about replaying. Until then it’s goodbye.Gemstarr27Version: 2.2.2

✓ Odd GameThe designing aspect is fantastic and earning the money and tickets to do it is fun, EXCEPT; it gets ridiculously hard to do so after the second episode. It’s getting to the point it’s not even worth it anymore because if all I wanted to do was play a colour matching game, I’d just play toy blast 🙄 Lighten up on the levels guys, because I haven’t been able to design anything in days and I won’t be buying any booster packs either..Heineken7145Version: 1.5.4

✓ Design aspect is fun BUT...Cheesy games between designing need to be played to earn money to demo, reno and/or purchase products. Think Candy Crush but far worse. This game sucks!.OrganicallyHERVersion: 2.1.7

✓ Let me have gems!Whenever I get gems the game puts them in a piggy bank and I click on it and it says I have to spend money to get it! And because of that when my energy ran out I couldn’t refill it because it cost gems! Maybe take out the piggy bank or here is another one Get rid of the energy! I want to play don’t make me wait an hour. I will delete Tell me when you fix this broken game!.CkckeeVersion: 1.6.3

✓ Liked it until it just wouldn’t open one dayI was enjoying the game (except for when it started becoming more expensive for the furniture etc) then I went to kill some time and play it and it just wouldn’t open at all. So I deleted it and downloaded it again and the same thing. It just won’t load or open the game??.JordieGraceVersion: 1.7.6

✓ FRUSTRATING! But good.... sortaI think about deleting this daily. This game takes at least 2-3 WEEKS to finish ONE ROOM (3 rooms to a home) playing a min of 3x everyday. You get 5 lives. Approx every 3rd level is designated as “Hard”. It’s not really hard. It’s just designed to make you lose, to force you to buy gems. Each level wins about $700 but the cost of items increases every level. A stove in the beginning cost about $1200. I am level 700 and my stoves are costing between $6000 apiece. Other higher ranked players complain the stove is up to $17,000 when you get way up in levels. Yet We’re still winning the same amount of $700 per level. The game is already hard enough and so it takes me 9 levels to get a stove. Our I’ve been playing for THREE DAYS and I’m still on the same level. U It’s insane how long it takes. You just lose again and again and it’s maddening. They do give gifts, an hour of lives etc but it’s not that often. Other games offer way more power ups. This game is intended for the player to spend money. Period. Yet I love the design aspect. That’s super fun. But the odds are stacked and I am often aggravated. Bottom line: Great game but you need to play knowing you’ll either pay money for gems or it will take a stupid long, long, loooong time to finish a room. The Property Brothers need to be told that this game is aggravating..TeMeManquesxoxoVersion: 1.7.8

✓ Such a shameHas the potential to be my favourite game! Designing the rooms is all I want to do but it takes a ridiculous amount of game play to renovate one item in each room. Now I’m at a point where everything costs over $4,000 per item, you can only earn $975 per level of game play max (unless it’s a “hard” level) and most levels are taking 3-4 goes at least to complete so you end up spending a day playing to change one thing in the room which is infuriating. There’s no point downloading it unless you have tons of real life money to spend on gems. I don’t understand why the money you earn from playing the levels doesn’t at least go up a little as you progress?.JessieeSmithhVersion: 1.6.1

✓ Fun but difficultI really enjoy this game. The graphic, design ideas, it gives the taste of a designing a real home. I like how it goes into depth with the creativity but the levels are very hard to pass. I spent almost 30min trying to pass one level with my 1hr free lives. It gets frustrating. The prices of furniture etc are understandable but passing the levels to get the money is an extra mile..LexleefVersion: 1.6.6

✓ Great game but.....I loved watching this show so excited to try the game. Unfortunately the levels get too hard very quickly. The concept of the game is very good and enjoyable but I ended up deleting it as I am spending so much time trying to get past a level to earn tickets for the special level or cash to buy an item to furnish the room. The whole idea of the game is to design rooms but you run out of tickets and cash very quickly and you either need to pass levels or purchase items so you can move forward which I find very disappointing. I wouldn’t recommend this game..GerbiesVersion: 1.7.1

✓ SneakyThis game although fun, forces you to pay for any of the little bonuses. I made it a point to not purchase any of them after the first couple. Then it started charging my credit card without permission or giving me the thing it said I bought. Don’t but this app…. It’s sneaky expensive. If you do… watch your credit card..Beans RoadVersion: 2.5.8

✓ READ THISThis app is ridiculous, I got sucked into the game and next thing you know it you are stuck on a level with only the tiniest amount of energy. THEASE mini games are ridiculously hard to beat and have been stuck on it for months. It’s like you purposely made to impossible for others to beat so you can get more money raised. I didn’t download this app just to be stuck on a level that doesn’t even get you that much coins. This app is terrible and yet the worst one so far. I’m going to delete this app because it’s a useless point. I hope you read this and be ashamed of how many people have argued and lost money on this game. FIX IT PLEASE! Please make things easier to achieve other then that it would be a nice game….Sienna dillonVersion: 2.8.6

✓ Bad game, money drained ( if you want to live better DONT buy)DONT BUY! ITS A LIE! I, like many other people have seen the ad for this game and I bought it of that thinking it would be like the ad, but it’s NOT. Your energy runs out really quickly and you can only continue playing if you BUY it with real money, so I did that and it cost like $10 for 4 things of energy which they charged me $30! But I played on, thinking, hoping that it would be like the ad, quick and easy but it’s nothing like it! And the challenges to get $ get really hard. And all the decor cost way to much, like a POT PLANT cost $1,2340! It’s way too much and way to bad.NUEROsVersion: 3.0.3

✓ Not enoughLove this game but I am starting to get over that I cannot pass some levels and you give 5 lighting bolts it’s hard. Please fix this..Hella Good 247Version: 1.5.6

✓ Frustrating, not worth my time.Design choices are very limited. You have to constantly play games to get enough money to buy items of furniture. Overall, it’s long and drawn out with no much reward at the end. I will be deleting app..LyeNZVersion: 1.7.2

✓ Dumb GamesI came here because design is interesting and fun. If I wanted to play dumb matching games I can go elsewhere. You cannot do anything without playing a game or four. The games are a waste of time. I’d rather have an app I pay for and design away, take my time, make changes, etc. I’m deleting this..GibbitsixVersion: 2.5.4

✓ Pay to win Rubbish! Not as advertised!!It is advertised as a home design/renovation game, which it is for the minority of time playing. Whereas, for the majority of the time playing the game, you are effectively playing a re-created version of candy crush! In order to get money to renovate the houses, you have to play a candy crush like game. This is not what I downloaded the game for!! As you go through the levels of the candy crush like gameplay, the levels get so difficult in such a short amount of time, that you have no choice other than to pay for diamonds in order to have another 5x attempts, or perks to help complete the level. Too many games have adopted such style of gameplay and it’s disgusting. What happened to the days where you could download a game, play it and complete it, without the app developers restricting you by making it insanely difficult to progress through the levels, without you handing over cash. A way to make this such a great game, would be to do away with all of the candy crush like gameplay, and instead, the people who hire your to renovate the house, provide a budget in which you have to meet their needs whilst remaining within the budget allocated. I feel like a mug for wasting about £5 before writing this review! Game deleted!.Cobz1327Version: 1.6.3

✓ Harder & harderThe game was really fun, I got addicted to it. BUT, I think I’m gonna delete it because those hard levels are impossible to pass, and then I finally passed it after 2-3 days, I realizes that I don’t have 1/3 of the money to buy A LAMP. It takes forever to finish 1 house, and it’s really exhausting..Kendy2702Version: 1.6.4

✓ Too expensive Reno’sLove the game - but the purchases to complete Reno’s are ridiculously priced. $2,500+ to purchase pillows??.Creating loving picsVersion: 1.5.0

✓ Frustrating!!It’s a great idea but so unrealistic in the financial department!! $2,300 for a dog bed or plant? NO, not after I’ve won my coins the hard way and they up the prices of things as you advance. I stored up over $200,000 to do it all in one go and it only lasted for two reno sections on one house. The living room and front exterior!! Not enough left for the kitchen. Often just as I get to the last extra move the game add (to get another two plays) freezes and won’t go back to the challenge. I’m not willing to pay for each stage so I guess I get penalized but it’s a shame because I do love decorating. Sometimes the blueprints have items that are not among the choices btw. The constant demand for ‘pay’ to play puts the brothers to shame, I think..Ninushka9Version: 2.4.9

✓ Good/ ok game👍👎So first of all, I just want to say how nice this game is, it’s a way for me to relax and enjoy my morning or evening, but there are some issues with this game. First I fill up my piggy bank and it says it’s full so I have to buy a new piggy bank, I’m ok with spending a little money, but that’s not the problem, the problem is when I play the side game to get coins to purchase furniture and what not it gives me the option to either quit, or to spend 90 diamonds on five more moves, so I try to press the diamond button but it says that I ONLY have 20 diamonds which is not true. So instead of playing on and winning who knows how much money, I wind up losing and waiting to gets my lives back so o can do it again, and I’ll admit I’m not good at the side game. So, I would have gave this game a ten star( I can’t, but if I could I would), but I only gave it a three because of my issue, it could have been worse, but there are NO ADS! In any game that I have gotten, there has always been ads, so that’s the good side on it. Thanks for reading my review! Also, the levels get WAY TO HARD, it’s super hard to pass them so I can’t get much furniture and what not..#mike nVersion: 1.6.1

✓ A few changesThe game is ok but could use lots of adjustments. First every game I play like this gives you daily sign in bonuses and diamonds. You don’t offer anything like that. Next the puzzles I swear it’s like they’re deliberately rigged and timed for failure unless you spend real money to buy them. The 30 min timer is really a very horrible idea not for this game but any game. After you win a challenge your offered no prizes other than the money for your items in the house your renovating. It’s not even enough to pick one feature in the design room. After every match some sort of bomb buster should be also given as a prize and you should be able to keep it and not loose it when you loose the next round because your puzzles are ridiculously insane to pass in moves allotted. Also my games offers no video or freebie to get any additional diamonds that’s really upsurge, you should offer your players chances and opportunities. I’m not saying the game is bad it’s just flawed. No opportunities, no daily diamonds, and challenges taking like 20 guys to pass is a little discouraging and aggravating. I’m sure it will get me to the point of game deletion. Don’t take my review for it play the game and see if you feel the same. Thank you.AnytfbjdacnynVersion: 2.0.0

✓ Stupidly hard, expensive items, boring choicesI usually try to get to level 500 before reviewing a game as I think it gives a fairer overview. The developers always try to get you to review very early on when the game is easy and the items are cheap. I’m on level 227 and I’ve had it. I’m fed up with playing levels multiple times only to have to spend 2000 coins on a bit of table decor you can hardly see or a pot plant. The choices are often very mismatched too. The games is now so hard that I’m bored with it. I don’t mind things being a bit challenging but this is now at the stage where the only way you can win is to buy gems. I’ve bought some gems to help me out at times but I’m not doing it for every game. My advice is play these games up to about level 100 then ditch it and download another. They’re supposed to be fun not torture. Deleted..ToopoosVersion: 2.4.1

✓ Why the ads all of a sudden???Okay I actually really really like this game! I have ADD and it’s really hard for me to find games I can stick with long term and this has become one of them for sure. The designs are beautiful and the match-3 game is actually one of the more fun ones I’ve played. There are definitely levels that are hard just to put you at a standstill and get you to spend money, but overall, it’s not too bad. That’s why I HATE having to leave a review (something I’ve done maybe 5 times in my life on like anything??), but I have to let people know how INCESSANT these ads have gotten. I opened the app maybe 2 days ago and, all of a sudden, there was an option to watch ads for extra moves before and after a level. Honestly? Not the worst thing, I’ve kind of been hoping for an update like that for those few stupidly hard levels. But now they’re popping up more and more frequently, like every other level type frequency?? And for what?? I know nobody who actually gets the money for these games is actually in a pinch for cash. So why the VERY abrupt overabundance of the same 4 ads?? Seriously, it’s a good game, but I’m considering deleting it. The gameplay isn’t worth it if it’s blocked by all the ads. Not to mention the fact that it’s actually messing up the game itself, causing major lagging and glitching that has NEVER happened before these ads started. Really hoping this issue gets resolved soon, but if not, it was a fun run while it lasted..KatlaurelVersion: 2.3.4

✓ Too hardEvery time I ran out of money I had to play these little games because the furniture is overwhelmingly expensive and the little games got harder and harder but I kept playing because I love decorating. After a while the furniture expense got out of hand and the games got impossible so I stopped playing but I couldn’t help myself from dropping in every now and then. That was a mistake and a waste of time so my review of stars is 1. After a while (10 minutes) I found another decorating game called Redecor which is like this game but way better (5 stars from me) because they give you lots of money to start with and you get more money from decorating rooms so you never run out and it’s so easy and fun (I’m addicted) so i recommend that instead of property brothers..I love my dog phoebeVersion: 1.7.1

✓ FrustratedI loved this game. I got a new tablet. The game go black with white lines and then it go back to normal then it freezes. I have to keep uninstalling and then reinstalling the game. It has taken the fun out of the game. I am not reinstalling this game ever again.Lady xciiVersion: 2.5.7

✓ GoodThe app is good and I love designing but I don’t like that we have to play that extra game to get money. I’d rather just be able to design without needing money..ShaunritVersion: 2.6.1

✓ Too little designing too much boring game playThis game is just a cash cow to make you spend money so you don’t have to play the boring gem games to get to the actual fun: designing. The designing part is fun I wish it was 90% that 10% the other part. Instead it’s the opposite..Tashafox17Version: 2.6.0

✓ MoneyLittle things are to much money.GggyyyllliiiaaannnVersion: 1.6.3

✓ Levels are too hard to completeI honestly have loved this game, but the mini levels are now too hard to complete- It can take days to complete one level, and by that point you have missed out on the challenges. I wish the levels weren’t so hard, because if it was achievable, this would absolutely be the best game..Ktmlk1995+2Version: 1.5.7
