Spire Blast for Negative User Reviews
✓ Terrible execution, good ideaInitially I was so excited to find this game and then was so painfully disappointed. The game concept is fantastic and satisfying. Unfortunately the mechanics are awful. The features physically overlap so you think you’re spinning the tower or aiming at a low row, but instead you’re changing the block color. It’s extremely difficult to even fire at the bottom row a lot. Then if you’re on a timed level and get close to the end of the timer, it will vibrate to warn you. However, if you don’t win the level the vibrating doesn’t stop until you exit the app or start a new level. You won’t notice these issues on the early levels so much but as the game gets more difficult it will ruin your ability to play functionally..Version: 1.19.1
✓ Strange balance steals the funAt first, it’s a delightfully satisfying mix of block breaking and physics. Unfortunately, the designers didn’t seem to understand this unique joy. Way more points are awarded for big color matches instead of the more satisfying big topples. This creates a disconnect, encouraging more limited throws, and a frustration against the delightful physics! Worse still, like many match 3 games, it also makes the mistake of adding ‘tough’ and unbeatable blocks too early, mechanics that, combined with goals that also work against the physics, end up taking the fun out really early. A gem of an idea, and pure delight for 10-15 levels, ruined by product managers who thought they were creating a greedy free to play, instead of an Arcade exclusive. Should be two stars, but the concept and early levels are worth a bonus..Version: 1.1.1
✓ Excellent but deeply flawedA nice take on the match style of puzzle game and it is very addictive. However, after the 10th level, the game crashes on my M1 Mac every other level. Desperately in need of a fix. A great shame..Version: 1.8.0
✓ Poor response to feedback - Pity as it’s a good gameI’ve tried all ways to get some response to the fact that I am unable to get past Level 480, in spite of all previous levels being completed. Pity, as it’s a good game..Version: 1.19.0
✓ Doesn’t work?!I downloaded this game a few days ago and I still can’t get past the loading screen. I was super excited to play but it has yet to work.Version: 1.2.1
✓ Enjoyable but too shortNice game, great playability and you can progress through the levels quite well. You also accumulate coins pretty fast so buying power ups isn’t too much of a problem when they’re required. Trouble is, it isn’t long enough. I’ve had the game around 4 days and I’ve played all 80 levels already. Hoping further levels will be added..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Crashes at level 60Can’t play past level 59. Game crashes every time you try to play level 60..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Should be able to skip levelsIf you get stuck, that’s it; no way to continue playing. There should be a way to skip levels or mark them complete, or at least a hint system or a difficulty setting. Boosters are too expensive (or put another way, you don’t earn enough coins per game). So you use up all your boosters trying to get past an impossible level, and you’re left with no coins, no way to buy boosters, no way to progress. In fact, the only reason I’m sitting here writing this review is because I don’t want to play the same level for the tenth time trying to get past it, and so essentially the game is over for me and all that’s left is for me to leave this review. update: lowered the rating to one star because something’s gotta give: fix the physics or increase the ball count per level (or better yet, just get rid of it) or make boosters more effective or lower the booster cost, etc. There are so many ways the devs could fix it and turn it into a five star game..Version: 1.0.4
✓ Fun but crashes on level 36Can’t seem to continue past level 35. App crashes when loading level 36.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Crashes starting level 36?I was really enjoying this game until I got to level 36 as it won't load. It starts to load then crashes. Happy to edit review once bug is fixed..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Game is okGame was fun until level 5 and then the square parts got really difficult. Nothing falls. Annoying..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Good fun but wish it would sync progressGood fun but wish it would sync progress across devices. As it is I’m stuck only playing on iPad, as iPhone and AppleTV make me start from the beginning. Also please consider allowing landscape mode on iPad?.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Obnoxious elementsLiterally deleted the app over the passive ‘gulping’ sound the dragon makes. I get it, it needs noise but since it’s so pervasive surely there’s an ability to isolate it during gameplay (whilst keeping the block interaction sounds) - or pick something less frequent and obnoxious.Version: 1.6.0
✓ Spire Blast’s unlucky number... 🤭To be honest I had to think, twice about getting this game, I really underestimated it. I finally installed it and started playing. At first it was just what I thought it was, knocking down tower, but as I played on I discovered goals and power ups. And the levels got more challenging, I was stuck on level 22 for 49 minutes! 😆 It’s so interesting how knocking down a tower can be so hard! The graphics and animations are amazing, and I he never ran in to a glitch yet! Ever single level is a bit more challenging, but not in a bad way. It is also very creative, it kinda reminds of candy crush, but I would play spire blast instead anytime! This game is for anyone who likes squishing slime, or popping bubble rap because this game is extremely SATISFYING. This game is my new favorite, with “what the golf” and “lego brawls”. Week later: I reach level 36 an as soon as click play, the game crashes, I tried like millions of times, nothing helps... (I am playing on a iPad 14, I dunno the details.) This really disappoints me because this game is so fun, and I am going to have too wait until you devs fix it. Sadly I also re-gave this game three starts, because of this glitch, from five stars, to three....Version: 1.0.2
✓ Good fun to pass some timePity the developers don’t think much about players - reached level 80 a few weeks ago, and can’t go any further because there aren’t any levels beyond this. Not sure how much more patient I’ll be waiting, but my interest wanes a little bit more after each day I check for new levels, only to be disappointed. Because of this, I can only give three stars, which would have been five, since it’s a fun game to play..Version: 1.0.4
✓ I was enjoying itI was enjoying the game until I got to level 60, now it crashes every time I try to start it. I have deleted the game and reinstalled, same problem. Restarted the phone a couple of times, still no joy. Tried playing other levels which worked the first time, but now the game crashes each time I try to play it. I give up, oh well..Version: 1.0.2
✓ A bit disappointingI was looking forward to this one, but as with many Arcade titles it's very slick but doesn't quite live up to expectations. It has a very freemium feel to it, with "optional" power-ups that become more or less mandatory if you're trying to three-star the later levels. I know it doesn't actually "cost" anything to generate these other than time and persistence, but it feels as though my gameplay choices are being dictated for me rather than being organic. It's the sort of mechanic I'd expect in a game that's trying to sell premium upgrades, but on a service that's already charging me £4.99 a month it just feels wrong. Meh, maybe I'm being unfair because I've been feeling somewhat jaded towards Arcade for a couple of months now and Spire Blast is just the latest in a line of slightly disappointing releases. At least the dragon is cute..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Issue with gameHi developers, is there an issue with the game on iPad Arcade? For past week or so, game not progressing past load screen ..Version: 1.18.0
✓ Graphics keeps switching back to highDecent game. Challenging without being too irritating. However, phone gets too hot to touch when playing so that I have to cool it down with a fan. Not helped by the fact that the graphics toggle that I turn to low - to try to reduce the heat - keeps resetting to high between every game. Not good. Will revise the star rating once this is fixed as it’s not bad otherwise and suits the vertical screen very well..Version: 1.5.2
✓ No longer loadsIt worked for months, now it won't even load. Deleted and reinstalled the app, still doesn't work..Version: 1.11.1
✓ Needs workSuch a fun game, but doesn’t open anymore, just continual crashing..Version: 1.11.1
✓ Level 139Level 139 requires the user to hit 30 white pieces. There are no white pieces in the tower, and the user receives no white pieces..Version: 1.1.1
✓ Poor accuracy selecting blocks, Poor framerateThe iOS version of this game on iPad / iPhone runs great. The Vision Pro version of this game is poorly optimized and runs terribly. The gameplay, when running at the correct framerate, is fine and the game would be enjoyable, however selecting the block to destroy is horribly inaccurate. I usually have to look way off from a block to hit it correctly, even with the game as close as possible to me. I’ve recalibrated my eye setup many times and this game is still frustrating to play as the wrong blocks get selected more often than they should. Please improve the selection accuracy of the game elements or allow me to make the elements much larger to make selection more accurate..Version: 1.0.0
✓ Full of great potential, but acrippling lack of feedback to the playerYou just got nowhere close to 3 stars this level, what did you do wrong? No feedback. Will the next level almost give you 3 stars for free, or will it be so hard it all-out requires multiple powerups? Could be either. Both combos and leftover balls grant points, when’s it worth firing extra? Try to guess. Should you be trying to save balls for points here, or will you run out of any opportunity to collect certain blocks before the end? Better just painstakingly farm to be safe. Will three attempts in a row prove almost impossible due to bad luck? Sadly just have to hope. It could really be great, but currently there’s never a sense that you’re in control of your success, or have the information to play skillfully..Version: 1.3.0
✓ Gets boringAn ok game that gets repetitive and boring quite quickly..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Not bad but...A fun game. The most enjoyable aspect is seeing the tower tumble when you find that individual brick holding the whole thing up and zap it; however, the level objectives so far (lvl 18) are based around clearing large groups alla any other block shooter puzzle. This leads to a disconnect between what I’m finding fun and what I need to do to win each level. Not a huge issue but leaves me feeling that the whole thing could be more enjoyable..Version: 1.3.0
✓ Level 98 seems impossible.I’ve been stuck on Level 98 for a week, so went to check on Youtube to see if there’s something I don’t understand. In the video, the dragon is positionned at the corner, and it seems to credit the amount of block eaten way higher than in the real game itself. Is it a bug? PS : I think it was a bug. I went on Youtube to see if there was a specific way to get through Level 98, and the dragon was positioned at the corner of the tower (therefore ingesting more blocks), as opposed to the version I had. I went back a few days later, and then new tools were added to make level 98 doable. My understanding is that there was a bug. Level 99 and upward were very easy to complete. Personally, I enjoyed the game very much, but I’ve spent almost 3 hours trying to figure it out, that was, in my books, wasted for no reason. At this time, I’ve stopped playing it. It is not clear un regards to how you can get full stars at each level (in order to access some other levels which require an x amount of game) so it’s just a guess. Perhaps I didn’t see instructions in regards to that. I do understand that everything in development might have bugs, but I didn’t sign up to be a beta tester. So I’m gonna pass for a year. I’ve found other pass time..Version: 1.5.0
✓ Had been fun, had been looking forward to the new levels...Every tower is more wobbly than it had been, especially the higher level towers. Some can’t be completed without power ups. Some can’t even be completed *with* power ups. What had been a fairly chill puzzle game now feels like an impossible race to beat the goals before everything falls over. (Don’t take a puzzle game like this and turn it into a twitch game? Please?) Honestly, I feel like the goals in the game are a little strange. Making them _optional_ might make sense, and could open up an alternate play mechanic where the goal IS to see how quickly (time) or efficiently (fewest thrown balls) one can get to the bottom, the goals just being bonuses or there for replayability. But if I ground out forty and more of each power up waiting for the update to come out, and I’m actually burning through those “extras” several times faster than I can generate them and *still* stuck not being able to make those goals, something’s out of balance..Version: 1.1.1
✓ Great game. Then it crashesI was loving this game. It’s a simple concept, and great to pick up and play when you have a few minutes. There is something deeply satisfying when you sometimes get to hit a single block then watch the whole tower crumble... ...then I hit the crash. Level 60, for me, and the game just closes whenever I try to start it. Killing the app, reinstalling, nothing works..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Broken by last update+1 on previous review - fun pick up & play game but broken after 1.16.0 update, crashes on opening (iPhone pro max 11 on iOS 15.7). App support link directs to a broken web page..Version: 1.16.0
✓ Keeps crashing!Fun so far, bu keeps crashing at level 36. 😔.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Fun but buggyEnjoying the game but a lot of game breaking bugs, multiple freezes and when completing numerous levels I won’t be able to escape the end level screen.Version: 1.0.1
✓ It keeps sending me back to the initial opening screen.I’ve gone as far as completing all levels in the 6th Kingdom. Now I can’t even get to the third or fourth kingdom without getting reset back to Zero. It doesn’t seem to matter what level I’m on. Spire Blast has sent me back to zero about NINE times now. Even with the iCloud backup on. It doesn’t help. This always happens after I’ve collected the 12,000 points needed to buy all 3 Boosters from the Alchemist shop, so that I always have an extra one of each at the beginning of every level. Apple support says they can not help, even though it is an Apple Arcade game. It doesn’t seem to matter to them. Apple support told me I had to contact the developer myself. I haven’t been able to contact the Developer. ***So, I’m writing this the problem down here in hopes that the Developer sees this and fixes the issue. *** I love this game. If it were not for this glitch, I would definitely give it 5 stars. It’s just become too frustrating..Version: 1.20.1
✓ AddictingGreat game but reached level 36 and keeps crashing.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Fun but some irritating bugsIt’s a fun little game, but there are a couple of levels that I cannot get 3 stars in. The more I play them, the more I realise that not all the connected colours are bursting when they should. Sometimes it will skip tiles of the same colour and burst a block further away, some times not even bursting the blocks that I fire them at but instead different ones. At first I thought this was user error so I tried to concentrate harder but noticed more issues. This also happens with the special blocks of armour, chains and bombs.Version: 1.0.3
✓ Won’t load level 36I’ve tried everything short of deleting and starting over (no thanks). It also really heats up my iPad... but I would keep playing if I could..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Satisfying but not top qualityThis game is quite fun because it’s satisfying to knock over towers of blocks. That’s sort of where the fun ends. Each level feels almost the same and the graphics are sub par compared to other Apple Arcade games. For instance, objects clip into each other (particularly the dragon). Overall it’s decent and a nice idea, but has a slight feel of a game that’s free but gets you to buy power ups through in-app purchases. Which, to be clear, this doesn’t. Unless I’m missing something, you also cannot tell how many rows of blocks a tower has left. That’d help to know how well you’re doing and how frugal you should be with the pellets you have left..Version: 1.1.1
✓ CrashCrashes on level 36 every time. iPhone 12 Pro.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Inconsistent GameplayI did enjoy the game once I got to level 60 when the game kept kicking me out. Now the update... I have been trying to pass level 5 for 24 hours after starting a new game due to technical glitch. I am a adult over 50...... I thoroughly enjoy a challenge. However to go from one extreme to another is ridiculous. This game is supposed to be based on Physics. With the update it is discouraging to watch levels just drop and sway when in physics they should be knocked over. This game should challenge young minds to learn the laws of physics and gravity.... In addition challenge the more mature adults for fun. I’m very disappointed..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Should be fun but isn’t.I don’t know what’s up with this game. The first few levels make sense where you can target just the right blocks to get a chain reaction of toppling. After level 4 or so you get blocks just stacked vertically on each other so shooting out the bottom stack does...nothing. The blocks just drop straight down. You seem to get a smaller bonus from toppling large sets of blocks than just shooting 1 large block of color which takes away any strategy. To top it off, the game just slams you into a wall before level 10. No idea why it’s set up that you can get 3 stars and still fail a level. Apparently I just have to spam power ups. Seriously though, the worst design seems to be that the unbreakable blocks below (which impede your progress) are based on the location of the highest block above it, not the total number of blocks left. You can completely remove 75% or more of the available blocks and still the unbreakable ones down move down because one “spire” of 10 blocks is still tall..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Fun time wasterIt is a fun time waster but it drans the battery on my 12 pro max and the game crashes a lot..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Glitch in level 11 tutorialWas fun.. level 11 tutorial is impossible to skip or finish.. have tried now for a week...Version: 1.9.0
✓ Unintuitive, obtuse puzzlerI have a degree in physics and I still can’t figure out why things fall over or not in this game. The graphics and animation are great, but the “physics” is a complete mystery to me after 29 levels. I deleted it after about a dozen levels, but saw a bunch of good reviews and played the rest to see if it could grow on me. It has utterly failed to do so. I did figure out that coins are acquired by clearing large sets of a single color and that having extra blocks fall off is only good for points, but still am not sure what determines how many points each of those extra blocks are worth, but think it may have to do with the number of blocks you eliminated. I also have no idea what triggers the end of the level. There are so many things that I have not figured out that the mediocre gameplay and trivial use of dragons (which featured prominently in the advertising that interested me in the first place) have pushed me to delete it again and permanently..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Fun but lost all progress due to buggy cross device save syncAs mentioned in the it’s a great game but the cross device cloud sync is buggy and poorly implemented. I’m bitter having lost progress on 30+ levels. Be warned..Version: 1.0.4
✓ Not terrible, quite fun, but just one thing...When you’re on your last ball, and you use it to deliver the final blow to win the level you’re on, it shouldn’t automatically fail... like... You should fail when you run out of balls yes, but not when the final balls would make it so it would complete the level. This just happened to me, hence this review, I’d leave a 5 star if this was fixed.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Shame about level 36Yep, an enjoyable game. Until you hit level 36 and it crashes..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Crash on Level 37Was great. Until I couldn’t play anymore..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Nice…It’s fun but not very exciting. A bit repetitive. In other words, boring.🙄🥱😑😐It is satisfying but I wouldn’t recommend it.😥.Version: 1.15.0
✓ Idiotic “Blastie” in the updateIs there a way to get rid of that idiotic Blastie character they just added? I does nothing to enhance the game play at all, and the stupid thing is just there, blocking real estate in the game. This addition *screams* of some out of touch product manager without a clue how to do their job..Version: 1.9.0
✓ TerribleI hate it.Version: 1.1.1
✓ Saved game now broken?Since the update, I now have a message that ‘The Alchemist has opened a shop!” - with a pointing finger to press. I can do nothing from that screen at all - both on the iPad or iPhone installation of the game. Tapping, pressing, swiping does nothing. If I return to the main menu and create a new game, it works fine..Version: 1.7.1
✓ I want to review Apple Arcade as a whole.As for the stars, those are for this game. It plays like it was supposed to be a pay-to-play game but I’m assuming that because the library for Apple Arcade is so slim that it was thrown in as filler. On that note, Apple Arcade needs more and better games that are worth the monthly fee. Not reprogrammed pay-to-play bomb shells. And there happens to be quite a few of them. One pac man game in the whole library and it’s only fun if you know someone who also has Apple Arcade, One sonic game and it’s sonic racing (enough said), and a version of Frogger that is almost as unplayable as the game I’m trying to review. On that note, Spire Blast is terrible. It’s a block matching game with poor physics that’s impossible to progress through unless you replay the first four levels over and over again to get power ups that do very little but move you three to four more levels ahead. It has an endless music loop that never changes and it feels less than gratifying when you beat a level. It’s a sad time waster that will leave you with no sense on accomplishment. Why was this game headlined? For a while it sat on top of the Apple Arcade page like it was a must have. This should have been buried under all the Apple Arcade games. Lastly, please give us a bigger library of good games, Apple Arcade. We pay you monthly for entertainment. Not “First game made by a developer in college” type games..Version: 1.0.4
✓ Update broke my gameSince the most recent update I can’t play the next level, 60. It just crashes and closes every time. Really annoying..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Developers can’t read!1 year ago I gave this a 3 star review due to colourblind issues starting at lvl16, when the shields prevented me from see the shapes on the blocks. I just received a response from the developer with ZERO reference to my comments, saying they added new features and to give them a 5 star review. So I updated the app, and at lvl16 NOTHING had changed, so here is your updated 1 star review!.Version: 1.11.2
✓ Physics vary wildly between devicesTowers are stupidly stable on iPhone XS to the stage where you often run out of shots half way down a tower, play the game on an apply TV however and the towers topple easily with large areas tipping over throughout the play through. The variance between devices makes the game possible in some instances, tested with my wife last night with the same level. On iPhone she ran out of shots half way down the tower ten times in a row, then moving over to the Apple TV she finished the level with double digits left four times in a row. Last game on iPhone and she failed again no where near the bottom. Great game but I think the iPhone you have matters due to the physics calculations taking place, it’s unplayable on the XS as it stands currently with blocks leaning at impossible angles but never falling..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Phone killerFirst and foremost, this game eats battery life like crazy. I had a brand new battery installed last week; this phone takes 10+% battery PER LEVEL. Phone gets very hot, and does a random screen-dim-screen-bright thing. Super sketch. The game itself is pretty fun at first. A fun, refreshing concept, poorly executed. After 40 or so levels, it forces you to work against the physics that set it apart from other match games. The scoring/point system makes no sense. It feels unfinished. I have not gotten stuck on any levels (currently on lvl 94), I am not frustrated by the difficulty of the game, I’m just disappointed..Version: 1.1.2
✓ Should be easy and fun, but it’s clearly P2PBut I’ve been failing on an early and easy level because I must collect 10 blocks of three colours and the game never gives me even 5 of each of those colours to throw (which is how you collect those coloured blocks). How am I meant to collect these colours without the ability to collect these colours? It can’t be random either cuz I don’t have to collect any red or yellow blocks so of course 70/80 throwing orbs are red and yellow. I don’t even mind paying money in app tbph, I’ve spent thousands upon thousands on pc and console gaming so a few bucks to a casual game here and there is nothing— but choosing to pay a bit to make the game better and being forced to pay or one cannot progress are two very different things imho. Coercion is just not something I’ll ever fw no ty..Version: 1.5.0
✓ I want to love this game but I see its flawIf I were to lose due to my own bad strategy, that’s okay. I will own up to that lose and try again. What really happens, let’s say you need to knock down reds and blues before the tower collapse, the game will rarely give you those colors. You would play normally until you realize the game is not paying fair. By the time it does give you those colors, it’s too late. I found myself deliberately hitting the wrong colors to avoid a collapse because the game takes too long to provide you with the colors you need. In the words of Shark Tank, for that reason only, I’m out. Fix that and I’ll happily come back. Let me lose because I targeted bad spots, like pulling the wrong block in Jenga. It does not happen every level but it happens enough to be annoying.Version: 1.15.0
✓ Battery drainer and now it won't launchUpdate: I decided to try it again and even in energy saver and low graphics. Even worse, they've added some virtual pet garbage that gets in the way and can't be turned off. This feels like a free to play app that I half expect to start pestering me for microtransactions instead of an Apple arcade game. Removing it again, and this time, I won't be reinstalling it. Original review: Drains battery faster than any other game I've ever played on iOS and it makes the device get crazy hot. I beat a level earlier and it crashed right as it ended the completion animation, then all my apps would crash within a couple seconds of opening until I restarted the phone. Thankfully only this app will no longer open. It's a shame, because the game is fun. However, now I cannot play it, and frankly I'm tired of plowing through so much battery in the course of 30 or so minutes of play time during the few downtimes I get during the day. Plenty of other great casual games I can play that don't turn my device into a glorified hand warmer..Version: 1.9.0
✓ Crashes on level 36Great game but I can’t get level 36 to load, the game crashes every time..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Ridiculously LatentGameplay is latent and suggestive AI makes ridiculous assumptions. Fail, No Sale!.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Love it but keep crashingI love the game as a way to relax, but when reach level 64 the game keep crashing 😔. iPhone 13 mini..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Losing progressI keep losing my progress in the game. I had to start from level 1 three times and I’m so done with it!!.Version: 1.6.0
✓ FunGame is until until level 36 Crash crash crash 💥.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Annoys like a Freemium GameSlightly disappointed, this plays like a freemium game that introduces complication purely to get you to buy boosts or power ups (but of course as this is arcade there’s no iap) One bug is that some levels with shields (where you have to hit a block twice) there are no shields for the colours you have which means luck prevents you from progressing. Ultimately, this becomes pointless..Version: 1.0.3
✓ NiceNot bad but maybe can you make the levels harder Thank you.Version: 1.8.1
✓ Dangerous overheatingWhenever I play this game my phone overheats to the point it might cause a fire or burn a child/pet. Don’t play this game until this is fixed..Version: 1.5.2
✓ Fun but need more!I really enjoyed playing this game. Definitely one that fills up any spare time you have and very easy and simple to play so appeals to all ages. Downside is that it only has 80 levels and with it being lockdown and not having much to do I finished the levels within a few days. Looking forward to more levels being added!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ OK...The game has a lot of potential. However, I was never able to continue my game between iPad and iPhone. Icloud is connected, but ain't possible even after multiple attempts. At level 20, the block fall off for no reason. Half my tower fall after targeting only one brick... I can't continue because I am unable to complete objective. It's sad because I really like the concept..Version: 1.1.0
✓ Awesome game so much fun!!The game is lovely so glad to have such a game without micro-transactions LOL. Only issue I see is I cannot progress past level 35 as level 36 keeps crashing.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Ok but too shortI really like these type of games. I really like the concept, but like many games on Arcade, it simply is too short. Most levels are fairly straight forward and I completed 80 levels in less than a week! Overall good, but, a little disappointing as so short..Version: 1.0.4
✓ Apple TV woesThe idea seems fun but playing it, even just for 5 minutes/3 levels, was enough to make this more stressful than entertaining. I can hardly get the aim to move to the right. It seemed like the more right I swiped, the more left it went. Left went left normally. Hitting the play button to swap colours makes for an extremely annoying experience when trying to play my own music while playing this game. My first Apple Arcade experience..Version: 1.4.0
✓ Fun, but very buggyFun, puzzle type game. But very buggy (game crashed repeated when a certain game level was reached). Not too different to other puzzle games..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Nice game but…Doesn’t save my achievements on the phone. After the first two worlds have to start at level 81 over and over. Not to mention playing on other devices. Annoying!.Version: 1.3.0
✓ It’s ok, but neither quality or quantityI just want a mindless game to keep my hands busy that isn’t micro transactioned out the wazoo. This is a very average version of this. I could be ok with this but then it only has 80 levels! If it just had quantity or quality (not wasting how pithy the title is), but alas. Three stars.Version: 1.0.4
✓ Fun for a little but achievements don’t unlockFinished the two worlds quite easily and it is an addictive game. But I have five achievements that didn’t unlock even though the requirements have been met. Some more levels would be nice in a future update too. 80 levels took to short a time to finish.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Fatal Error - Update 2Nope. Now I’m seeing issues on level 61. Before the update, every once in a great while the blocks wouldn’t register a ball hit, and I thought maybe I didn’t quite touch where I meant to. Now on level 61 I had one ball squarely hit the correct square and not register the hit but take away the ball. 2 shots later I had 2 purple blocks on top of each other, neither was caged, and the ball only made one of the blocks disappear. I played a little more of the level and it has happened 3 more times now. Blocks stacked on top of each other and only 1 disappearing. Yeah the more I play that level the worse it gets. It’s impossible to beat when the hits don’t register and the blocks disappear only some of the time..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Getting betterThis app is better than it was - much better. The level 60 bug is fixed, the physics seem to be much more realistic. With that said, there's a few things that could use some work: The blocks sometimes register direct hits as misses, and you can tell the game is still linking blocks that were originally connected when the tower was set up, but became disconnected after part of the tower was removed. I'll hit a block and it will remove blocks that it used to be connected to, even though they are no longer touching. The "side towers" aren't consistent in how you can get them to disappear. Most of the time removing the main tower below them is enough, but sometimes I've had to clear every block on them to get them to go away so I can get access to more of the main tower. The ranking should be based on cumulative score, not level completed. Once you hit level 80, you're done, and regardless of whether you three-starred every level or not your ranking won't change. Whoever got to 80 first is permanently in 1st place, and so on. Basing it on total score is better. Even when more levels are released, it'll just be a race to get to the top, instead of basing it on who did the best overall. Glad to see that the devs are improving this app - it could be one of the most fun apps on arcade if they fix all the little issues with it..Version: 1.0.4
✓ Uhhh am I stupidCan’t for the life of me pass the 5th level. Am I missing something.Version: 1.0.3
✓ RIP OFFI have been playing for month and som how i lost everything . WHY WHY WHY WHY please apple could you help me. You monthly take my money. 🥴🥴.Version: 1.20.1
✓ Uninteresting and Luck-basedThe game is breaking down towers of slightly bouncy blocks, sometimes fulfilling specific requirements. Those extra requirements are often easy to miss if the tower collapses on itself, which it often does due a less than good physics sim. There’s very little challenge in the game, just reload the tower and hope that it doesn’t chain react before you pop 25 purple blocks. Also saw the physics straight up break, blocks floating in impossible configurations, blocks getting pushed inside other blocks, etc. Plays like your average freemium garbage, not an apple arcade game.Version: 1.9.0
✓ Fun but....Cool game but what is the point of iCloud saves when you can’t play on your phone and then transition to iPad and continue where you left off ? Or vice versa. Pretty annoying !.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Fun at first, less as you goIf this were not an Apple Arcade game, I would rate it lower. The first levels were a lot of fun, and I really enjoyed it. I like that it syncs better my phone and iPad. When I got to about level 35 it changes nature from being a fast, joyful, blast-away game to being one that needs planning and timing that includes sitting and waiting for the right moment. As I go further, success on a level depends a lot on luck, too. If the blocks of given colors don’t align properly, it can be impossible to get three stars. Just keep playing for the right happenstance. The result of this is that it is a game I like less the more I play it. On the other hand, I didn’t pay any money for it, either. Apple Arcade makes it so it’s easy to play a game until it is no fun any more and move on. I am almost to the point of moving on. It is just more of the same every level only less fun after each victory..Version: 1.1.1
✓ Great, but overcomplicatedI’ve never written a review for any game, but felt compelled to with this one.. The first few levels had me hooked, the graphics, music and feel of the first few levels is awesome. Choosing which blocks to remove to knock as much of the tower down in one shot is REALLY addictive and satisfying - this needs to be a bigger part of the game. The further I progressed and learned more about the power-ups and boosts it became over complicated and frustrating, the ‘double hit’ blocks in particular ruin the flow of the game completely for me, and I’ve stopped playing after level 20 or so. In short, I’m begging someone to please add a free play option, some kind of mode where the aim is to knock down as many blocks in one go without the need for collecting certain colours or hitting blocks more than once. This would still be disappointing because I’d like to be able to progress through the levels in the main game, but even as a secondary, stress relieving, fun playing experience, a free play mode would keep me playing the game.Version: 1.4.0
✓ Gamebreaking BugGame is alright, pretty much like any other colour matching game but the lack of ads and micro transactions is nice. Pity it can’t seem to load past Level 36 without crashing, meaning I can’t keep playing. Already had some other little bugs which interrupted gameplay which is disappointing on an iPhone 12 running the most up to date software..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Level 36That’s the end for me, crashes on level 36 on my iPhone and my iPad. Can go back and repeat 35 no problem..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Error in level 139 preventing moving forward in the gameI like this game quite a bit but there are no moon blocks in level 139, it is impossible to beat this level. Terrible experience for a game I have been enjoying as part of Apple Arcade..Version: 1.1.1
✓ Really enjoyed until it stopped workingI have had this game since it first came out. I had beaten all 200 levels and the skyland part..some how it reset and started me back at level 136 and all of skyland was gone so needed to be redone. Out of nowhere, my game stopped loading. If I hit let’s play it just shuts off. I have updated the game and my phone so that isn’t the issue. I received no response when I reported this issue. I have finally decided to delete and reinstall which means I have to do the entire game again but at least I would hopefully be able to play. I did this and it still doing the same thing. It doesn’t get past the first page of signing in and it just shuts off. Very frustrating...maybe I will get a response after leaving a review.Version: 1.7.1
✓ Uncorrected glitchesThere’s been a bug in the penultimate level ever since stage 2 was released. I’m aware several people have reported but the developers aren’t even acknowledging the issue let alone putting it right. There was another major bug in stage 1. Is there a quality control issue here?.Version: 1.1.1
✓ Fun but strange design choicesThis is a fun game but held back based on fact that it is inherently a IAP game. The main fault is that a player does not keep any coins when they fail a level. As this game is fairly dependent on purchasing power ups, this leads to unnecessary backtracking. In the end it became too much of a grind for me..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Crashes trying to load level 60Fun and not totally impossible to win. Good time waster..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Quit workingGreat game until level 36. Then it kept booting me out. Can’t play it anymore. Too bad.Version: 1.0.2
✓ UpdateSo the dev responded asking that I give the another go. After 4 days of retrying, I’m still stuck on level 62 with the same issue. All the sudden, blocks will fall directly down with the row falling over like every other level has been. It takes me 25+ balls to get past the first level. I’m on level 62 so it’s not like I’m an idiot. Also, when hitting multiple blocks with the same color, only 2 or so out of the 5 of 6 will actually be impacted. It makes no sense since this problem only happened after getting passed level 60. So either the game is rigged or there is some faulty coding going into level 62 some how. Either way, pass on this game. It’s fun at first but obviously has some issues..Version: 1.0.4
✓ Fun but gets repetitive quicklyGood fun but the gameplay never varies and the levels are all the same concept. Good if you don’t want to think too hard..Version: 1.20.1
✓ Not working on 6th gen iPadGame works fine on my iPhone 12 however on my iPad it’s a different story. The game will not load at all and the app continues to crash everytime I try to play it. This seems to be a regular occurrence with Apple Arcade games and trying to use them on my iPad now whereas when Apple Arcade 1st came out I had no issues..Version: 1.0.1
