Bejeweled Blitz for Negative User Reviews

No to any update!One year later...reading feedback is a huge warning DO NOT UPDATE. I see you are FORCING users to belong to FB, why? What’s that spy app, got to do with this game?? I don’t do FB, nor any further updates now. I’ve read the feedbacks and your poor responses “Glad you’re enjoying the game”, when clearly they are not. So I haven’t updated this for years, why would I, seems the so called updates are anything but improvements. [to play I go off the internet, so as not to be forced to change versions.].Version: 2.23.0

Let Down.I had this game when it came to my attention many years ago, and I loved the simplicity of it. But I was let down by the constant glitching and the fact that it seemed impossible to win a jackpot when playing with special gems. So I gave up and deleted the game. Many years later an ad popped up for bejewelled blitz so I thought I’d download it and give it another go. It looks great with new additions & challenges, but STILL it’s impossible to win a jackpot even after hitting the same square time after time. So I’m afraid it’s time for this game to bite the dirt for the final last time..Version: 2.25.1

PoP Up Ads jam and errorI really was A fan of this game UNTIL all the pop up ads stick and will not let you continue, no way to exit the ads and keep on auto-loading the app store to purchase, also pop up screens automatically try to charge you for cash in-app purchases 🤯🤬 NOT happy I think it’s no longer worth playing this app anymore.Version: 2.20.0

TerribleWhat dafaq have you done to the app. It’s like I’ve gone back in time... UNO here I come!!!.Version: 2.1.1

Game was ok but not nowWith the new update I start up blitz but then it comes up with a message saying I need to download an update but it does not let you clear the message. The update does not work on my iPod touch as it is version 6 and cannot run version 7. I cannot download the new update so I can no longer play blitz. Please fix this so you can bypass the message about downloading the update..Version: 1.11.0

Fun game but many flawsSo i want to start off by saying i love this game, but there are a couple things that highly annoy me. the first one is when i use a rare gem, i never get the grand prize. ive used hundred and hundreds of rare gems, and i have NEVER won the grand prize. and i always choose the same spot when i get the option to choose my prize, so i know its not just bad luck, the gem has to go in the middle sometimes. im not saying i expect to win every once in 9 times, but every once in awhile would be good. second, this happens more than you would expect, but if i am playing a game, specifically in blitz champions, and the game crashes or i accidentally click out of the game, or even pause it for too long, when i re-open the game, it takes away my coins that i used, or the gem from my item box since i “used it” but it never saves my score, or gems destroyed, etc. so i have to either spend more coins/gems to get another score, or if i dont have enough coins and dont want to spend money to get more, then i cant redo my score and just have to deal with losing 100,000+ coins or a gem. other than these, its actually a really fun and addicting game, and if these issues could get fixed, it would make the game so much better.Version: 2.23.0

Needs a little workI like the new addition with the daily spin but the new version needs improvement. To start with I'd love to be able to play on landscape mode! The game itself seems to work slightly slower than when it was integrated to Bejeweled. And can you please add the stats reports, I want to know how far I am from the next level and my scores through out the previous weeks. I think that's all for now. Cheers..Version: 1.1

Forced log inThe game has changed recently and now you have to log in to progress. After all the years I have enjoyed Bejeweled Blitz it’s now time to delete this game which has joined the masses in trying to access your personal information by wanting to access your social media and bombard you with advertisements and promotions that nobody has any interest in whatsoever. I’m disappointed. I’ve enjoyed being able to enjoy this game without having to put up with this kind of rubbish in Bejeweled Blitz until today. I refuse to allow my personal details to ever be turned over to anyone on any level for “there use”. I’m sad after all years playing bejeweled blitz and many t years of enjoyment but under no circumstances will I allow anyone to have access to my personal details for “there use” as clearly stipulated in this sudden and disappointing development in Bejeweled Blitz now, never going to happen. Unbelievably disappointed..Version: 2.25.1

Invasion of PrivacyI have played Bejeweled Blitz for years. I did a recent update and now I can’t access the game without providing my birthdate. That is not going to happen. There is no need for this invasion of privacy. Another company looking to take advantage of customers. If this does not get fixed then I will delete the game and boycott all your games..Version: 2.26.3

Gold Bars Requirement in Blitz Quest is too highThe quest levels are a lot of fun but the requirement on some to “Earn Gold Bars from Blitz Championship Games” is unachievable. it is nearly impossible to earn 250 gold bars from blitz championship games if you only offer one a day and you are ranked upon score as to how many you earn. Most people will never get 250 because those with max boosts win the bars. And that eliminates the other Quests they are able to complete after that one. I have played your games for years EVERY DAY and I have always enjoyed it but this new situation is frustrating. I will say when you updated to add the challenges and the newer daily spins it’s much better. And spin rewards like 10,000 gold coins don’t do much when the smallest thing you can buy with coins on this app is 5 seconds on game time and it’s 25,000. I am sick of never winning anything more than 25k coins when choosing reward at the end of blitz game..Version: 2.19.0

500,000 coin prizeThis is definitely rigged. I played the same tile thousands of times (I do mean 1000s). I love the rest of this game, But.. the one time I choose a different prize tile at the end of the game (when u have boosters playing), the 500,000 coin prize was on the tile I picked 1000s of times!! The 1 time! This was so obvious and sadly, Bejewelled Blitz has gone down in my opinion because of this….Version: 2.23.0

Why the Owl?Playing the Blitz Championship game today and the owl showed up on bottom of screen over my boosts. I couldn’t use them for a few seconds. In these games a few seconds is the difference between winning and loosing. I only had 30 seconds to play and if I’m not able to use boost for 3 or 4 seconds then what’s the point. Do you not want us to win. Or even compete with each other. I won’t even complain about the freezing up and loosing boost coins and upgrades. Just why? I thought it was a fluke so I let it go. Played again and in the same exact time and place it showed up. Now I’m afraid To try again same thing is going to happen. Why wast my time boost and energy. Don’t need a response. Just fix the problem. Or is it a problem? Seems weird after update new things are starting to happen. Thanks for nothing..Version: 2.21.1

Where is the update?Why am I being told I can’t access functions until I update to the latest version, but the App Store doesn’t have the update. Where is it. Either make the update available, or stop the message telling me I need to update. Also my progressive score is stuck in a time-warp, and hasn’t increased in 2 days of playing. Can’t login via Facebook. How about getting somebody from your tech division on to this!.Version: 2.1.1

Very dissatisfied with ea helpI have played bejeweled blitz on my iPhone for many years, about a month ago all my 7,000,000 coins were gone all my gold bars gone, all my shards gone and all my 10,000 diamonds gone etc…. Ea support has not been helpful. I have emailed them numerous times asking them to send me a link for live chat. They send me the link but the links don’t take me to live chat😡 I’ve spent a lot of money on playing this game and they don’t help me at all..Version: 2.26.4

Locks up. January 17/24Every time I play it locks up and I can’t play the game I have lost a lot of coins please fix this. Still happening 😞.Version: 2.27.2

RuinedLike many things these days, it all gets taken too far. What the game makers have done is completely taken what was a beautifully simple, quick, intuitive FUN game and destroy everything that was good about it. The new layout is far too manic and unintuitive. The whole thing runs slower. FAR too many power ups that, when activated, basically just blow everything up far too fast for you to react fast enough. The responsiveness to the touch screen is horrendous. Way to many cut scene animations that detract from what was a quick and easy to get into game. It’s being milked for power up purchases to make money and all it’s doing is shrinking your audience..Version: 2.8.0

Play with cautionLet me begin by saying that I've played this game for years and enjoy playing it. However, Apple i-tunes robs you when buying coins. They offer a special but after you agree to purchase it for one price, they charge you full price. They also have a new thing if you play it on your computer. A pop up asks you to purchase coins in a slick little way that you just click yes to get it out of the way, until you realize that it just charged you money for coins. I've contacted the makers of the game and they referred me back to I-tunes. It is next to impossible to contact them for any reason. It seems to me that the maker of the game has responsibility to make sure that we are charged the correct amount without getting ripped off, but they play the innocent victim. I have been charged $65 for coins. "I know, I'm the crazy one because I continue to play." I don't think I should have to stop playing because they lack integrity. Anyway. Proceed with caution..Version: 2.1.1

Can't/won't updateGuess they have enough people downloading/playing the game so as not to make the latest update backwards compatible. So much for my 100 million coin & 561,000 gold balances not to mention all the rare gems collected over the years..Version: 2.25.1

Missing quest!In a Monday morning, there is usually a new quest to do over the next 3 days,( a new one starting on the Thursday morning). It’s not there this week-just keeps saying it’ll be “coming soon”.. why is there no quest?! Also, why do special gems keep getting more expensive,( with game coins) when what you win for things hasn’t increased…are you trying to recreate the cost of living crisis in game?! Please don’t. This is the only game I play,I’m autistic so no matter how many gripes I have about it, I have to play it every day. It’s frustrating that it’s got less enjoyable because of things seeming a bit rigged but🤷🏻‍♀️.Version: 2.25.1

POPCAP PLEASE READVERY IMPORTANT ADVICE No doubt your ratings have dropped drastically since changing the game. The reward strategy is completely messed up in current versions. You are forcing gamers into spending money for coins, gold, etc. I myself won’t spend anything on a free game so I will not do so. You have to play the game INCREDIBLY hard in order to achieve upgrades and rewards. If you wish to increase the ratings and gain a better user base please reintroduce the following; - Coins after each game provide at least 50k for x5 score multiplier. Maybe even delete gold and just have one currency. (1k to 10k makes me want to cry) - 1 free rare gem every day (don’t be mean! We liked the freebie before.) - Make sure champion Kev in the office doesn’t set the Daily challenge score limit (he is VERY good) - Increase or change the shard upgrade system to boosts (Playing without spending on chests or the £10 spins board - INSANELY over priced, and impossible to work the spins board - maybe change the spins board back to the spinner style) - Last but no least please listen to the above and help improve ratings! Adverts aren’t too bad just the gameplay is making me want to remove the game! Sorry Popcap, please make Bejeweled Blitz great again!😓.Version: 2.16.0

TOO MANY ADS!!!ADS: - Worst ads are Royal Kingdom, Royal Match & Candy Crush! These are the ads we get 75% of the time or more!! So sick of them!! I want King Robert to die!! Have to tap 4 things before these f-ing ads go away!! This is very annoying and wrong of you to do!!! - Placement of ads is wrong! What idiot programmed them!! An ad will come out after you play a blitz game, but before you pick from your 9 gems!! This has made me be to late for the game & not be entered in the blitz game!!! Fix immediately!!! CHESTS TO BUY: - On iPhone these chests have not been coming on the screen since October!! I have emailed you about this. Fix immediately!!.Version: 2.26.4

ReviewI like this game a lot, however lately the adds freeze and I have to open and close the application several times to play on. Also there was an ad that lasted like 107 and that really took a long time to get past. Way to long end I ended up quitting playing the game. The ads from Ford are really the biggest ones I noticed freezing. Please fix and not have such long ads. I’ve played this game for several years, however it’s starting to really be frustrating to play. And it you do have a hard time getting good scores and collecting your gems any more!! Now I’m trying to do the new up date and that won’t work it just keeps clocking and I can’t play the game! You have several bugs to work out on this app it appears! Can you shorten the ROYAL MATCH adds PLEASE, you think you’re finally done snd the ad goes on another 30 seconds PLUS!! I have tried the game and it really DOESN’T add up to all the hype it’s received with the ads. Thank you , Conniesue22.Version: 2.25.1

FreezingI have had a gut full of it freezing just wasted friggen 300thousand coins screw you bejewled.Version: 2.9.0

Constant CrashI have over 40 million coins that I've collected over the years with this game and now I can't access the game anymore? I think the latest update from the game company won't allow me to open it? Every time I try, it starts to open but then suddenly crashes. 😩 HELP!.Version: 2.25.0

Very annoying forced ad sounds on 👎Very, very annoying that sounds are on when ads play when settings have sounds turned off!.Version: 2.22.0

Love the game but bugs need more work1. I play on an iPhone X with the most recent update, but the game still freezes a lot at the end of a game, or moving from one section to another. 2. I have been denied the opportunity to complete all of the sections of the Blitz Quest on more than one occasion only because I was not offered enough Free Chests to complete the number required. On the Quest that is ending tonight, 5 are required. I have been stuck at 3 since 8/24. I have opened the app several times throughout the day, but none have been available. You should consider allowing users to get credit for buying chests with gold bars to fulfill this requirement the way you do with spins. This is very discouraging when you have completed everything else on 3 or 4 screens and you can’t collyyour rewards. The is the reason for the only 3 stars. Thanks for any change you can make to fix this!.Version: 2.21.1

Update issueSince last update I can’t access the game. I really wish app developers would stop tickering w their app because all it really does is screw things up in a game app that was working fine prior to the update I can’t access the game. Stupid damn thing keeps asking for my birthdate but doesn’t allow me to type it in or select it and can’t move past that screen. What a screwup.Version: 2.26.3

Don't upgradeIt's too slow, and screen freezes often. It may be the biggest upgrade, but not the best. Stay on your current version.Version: 2.1.1

Really a bummerI loved this game for years, and decided to delete from my phone a few years ago to free up space. I was always ranking well and earning jackpots and lots of rare gems and prizes when I stopped playing. Just downloaded it again a couple weeks ago. Like finding an old friend ... AT FIRST. Still fun to play, but even with high scores, and after playing hundreds of games, never won a single gem jackpot, on the 9 spots to chose - when chances should be 1 in 9. When I win the daily challenge, half the time (like just now) I don’t get the rare gem even though it says I qualified (cat lights up and meows on far right). I select BANK IT, but it is NOT added. You have to pay pay pay to play with gems, which you need for all the contests, and the good gems are $100K plus - why aren’t they given to you as they used to be, for loyal (paying) strong players??? I can go to Vegas, I don’t need it to be in my phone, too. Deleting again, but won’t be back this time 😔 I really loved this game - look at my user information guys, you’re going the wrong direction, for sure, and you have to reward the paying, strong players. When there is NEVER a carrot 🥕 the bunny eventually moves to the next garden. ... HOP Hop hop ....Version: 2.12.0

Don't updateI loved this game until the update doh !!! Now it freezes and you can’t access the treasure box it has become virtually impossible to gain access to rewards or bonus power ups without game freezing hate the new update seriously who was asked about game additions its is rubbish I agree updates were needed and new ideas ( I hope you didn’t pay the bright sparks for new Stuff) but this is now a load of rubbish we’re players actually asked what they’d like as seriously do not believe players came up with this trash grrrrrr 1 week fix it or I’m ditching the game.Version: 2.1.1

Lost all my creditsHad built up 20 million in credits, just to see how many could go up. Latest update has wiped the lot. Not happy. Uninstalling this after this miserable update. Addition to original review. Did not delete when said I was going to. Came back to the game after about two weeks and miraculously my credits had been restored. Happy now to upgrade the stars from 1 to 3 as the frequency of the adverts is annoying..Version: 2.25.0

Blitz contests don’t workI asked for help, no one is helping me with the problem!.Version: 2.26.0

Boring GameI wish this game was more interactive and gave me incentive to play, but it is just boring. There are no real challenges. It’s simply just boring. It’s like the creators just gave up and don’t create anything new..Version: 2.26.4

New AdsI’ve been playing this game for many years, but all of a sudden there is a 30 second advert after EVERY game! When I first stated playing, there were no adverts. Whilst I understand most developers require adverts to pay for ‘free’ games - a developer such as EA surely do not require this. If I must endure adverts, make it the 10 seconds or so as it was last week - that would earn you an extra star... Another thing I have noticed is that if I play on my MacBook - it gets very hot! There are no other games or Apps which cause this... My iPhone, however, does not get hot....Version: 2.23.0

Getting disappointedI have played Bejeweled for almost 10 years and spent a fair amount on coins and boosts. Now the experience is getting more and more disappointing. Complaints: 1. I have never ever struck the jackpot “choosing” the prize in the hundreds, no, thousands of games I’ve played. It feels like that part of the game is just plain rigged to get you to buy more coins by dangling a non-existent carrot in front of the player. 2. And more and more, you can’t access the charms/boosts that you’ve already won or bought when you first login to play. Says they are “downloading” - for over 10 minutes!! I have WiFi or LTE speeds on my phone - how long can it take for a bunch of icons to download??!! It feels like EA/developers are more concerned with squeezing revenues from longtime players than trying to maintain loyalty. Time to switch to another casual game for chilling with..Version: 2.19.0

Terrible UpdateSince the last update, it will not load my gems so I cannot play. Tried everything including deleting and uploading again, still the same. I actually lost all my coins, gems and everything else. Now I have to start all over again. But still, even with strong internet, it just keeps rolling and will not load my gems. Unable to play the way it should be played. Fix the problem please..Version: 2.24.2

Game playI know you’ve all changed over to HTML5 etc etc etc but this game use to have no glitches or snags or problems n now even on my browser page using chrome and or edge or puffin or even on Facebook, it doesn’t load or it loads so so slowly and yes I’ve cleared all my data etc and my caches etc and shut everything else down but it just doesn’t flow smoothly like it use to and it’s sad cos it’s a game I’ve played for years and years and to have all these issues is bad!! Even the fan page on Facebook is covered with people complaining and losing friends lists and gems and coins etc. I’ve even played and picked a gem on the leaderboard and it’s used my coins and when I went to go press play, the page has just refreshed itself and I’ve lost my game and momentum. Please fix these issues as it’s causing lots of fans a lot of stress and not bringing joy to the game at all and it’s experience.Version: 2.23.0

Designed to spend $$The game is set up for you to spend cash then you have a chance of picking prizes the ratio of you getting the smaller prize over the larger prize is off by a lot. You more frequently win small amount of coins, gold etc then the large ones. This is because the want you to send $$ on buying these. Game is rigged.Version: 2.8.0

I lost all my pointsI lost all my points, gold bars ….everything. Trying to get support is like pulling teeth out of a pit bull.Version: 2.25.1

Too many adsPay to win. So boring. Thanks EA..Version: 2.22.0

Micro transaction garbageI haven’t played this game in a while and decided to come back to it. Boy, was that ever a mistake. You can’t go a single game without being bombarded with full page banners insisting that you spend coins or buy in-game currency of some type. And there’s multiple types of currency (more reasons to spend money, of course). The worst part about it is they send you straight to the payment screen if you touch literally anywhere on the banner but the tiny little [x] up in the corner. But even that isn’t the worst of it. I could forgive all of that if they hadn’t fundamentally changed the mechanics of the game itself. Scores are now heavily inflated compared to what they were 10 years ago due to pay-to-win garbage. “Spend a whole ton of coins to get a special boost with some hastily-made visual effects that makes it so you barely have to be good at the game to get a massive score.” This used to be a fun, competitive, skill-based game. Now it’s a prime example of the worst that mobile gaming has to offer. It’s a shame, really. PopCap used to be a power house of fun little games. EA truly does ruin everything they touch..Version: 2.22.0

FailSo seems they squeezing out the old phones. The last update before this one I had to play a normal round before being able to play the daily challenge. Been playing this game almost daily for 3 odd years,accumulated a lot of scores probably over couple thousand and this is how my loyalty get repaid. Thanks for nothing..Version: 1.17.1

It’s okay I guessThe game isn’t bad it is actually quite enjoyable most the time but some of my biggest criticisms have to be that there are many pop up adds which I get that the game is free and the have to make money somehow but during the middle of a game I have gotten adds and it gets really annoying after a while another one I have is that the game is very glitchy and freezes often or the app shuts down. But I would recommend the game to anyone looking for a fun matching game 🙂.Version: 2.16.0

Major problemsSince the new version came out, app won’t load - repeatedly crashes, despite all my best efforts. I updated to iOS 8 to see if it was my older iOS causing issues, and am getting same problem. I tried uninstalling and re-installing, and now it doesn’t crash but is not much use as it won’t log on to Facebook - I get an instant message that ‘log on failed’ despite not even enough time to make a connection. Yet another one of EA’s failures… take a good game and ruin it..Version: 1.5.7

Filled with Scam AdsAbout every 3-4th game you will have to sit through a scam ad that is filled with lies and illegal use of celebrity. Did you know you can lose 40 lb in 15 days taking 1 pill a day? I don’t understand why they aren’t charged with engaging in fraudulent activity. Tells you all you need to know about the owners of this game. I deleted and encourage others to do the same. Don’t support fraud..Version: 2.25.1

Skill gonePreferred older versions when the game was more skill-based. Now you can just buy your way to ridiculous scores. Preferred the special gem boost which gave you one at the start rather than by chance upon matching gems (case in point about skill, you used to have to watch for patterns and try and make 5 gem matches, now there isn't much point with the chance gems you may as well just concentrate on speed only). And in all versions ever - why when the computer blows the 'black cube' special, does it always pick the worst colour, why isn't it random at least?.Version: 2.2.1

You don’t get to pick your prizeI have played this for many years and have only hit the major prize once when randomly selecting a prize piece. I decided to experiment so I selected the same piece every day for 1 year - not once did it come up with the major. Obviously the game only chooses a piece not selected by you. After sending this review I am uninstalling the game..Version: 2.24.1

GoodbyeSeeing that this game is for the ages of 4+ I have no idea why you would be requesting our month and year of birth to be able to play, this has been In since the previous update, so when I saw the latest update I was hoping that you had removed this inappropriate requirement, but seeing that you haven’t then this is going to be goodbye and I will be advising everyone I know not to play any game s that you make.Version: 2.27.2

BoringNothing for the regular players just standard items ... each player should be rewarded financially for loyalty to the game and why is it on the daily challenge I am not getting my items or in the works challenge I accept gifts but receive nothing 😡 time to quit as reached as far as bejewelled goes. NO DAILY CHALLENGE ITEMS ADDED ? Why is it that when my friends send me stuff I cannot accept them ? Irritating ? When you finish around it allows you to send a item to your friends I send them but till today cannot receive from my friends ???????.Version: 2.1.1

Game is rigged and overloaded with advertsPity, it’s a good game and used to be very enjoyable but the format has changed. Firstly, there’s a compulsory “30” sec ad after every one minute level. Those “30” sec ads are normally about 50 secs by the time the ad finishes and you then wait for an option to close the ad. Secondly, the game is rigged to make it impossible to win the coin jackpot. There are 9 squares to choose from with 1of them containing the jackpot. I have tested this and played over 2000 times and never once won the jackpot even though you’re led to believe that you’ll win it one in nine times on average. Basically, they’ve taken a once enjoyable and playable game and ruined it..Version: 2.23.3

Please fix game, 2 errorsThere are 2 errors with game, otherwise would rate higher. When playing Blitz Championships, sometimes the game freezes where nothing you do works, can’t resume, time left stays the same. You have to exit game completely and start it up again, thus loosing the 10 or 15 second booster you paid for (points not lost). The next thing that has started to happen in the last few weeks, when you pay 6400 gold bars for daily spin, when you use up the 22nd spin, you would normally get a fresh new screen where hopefully you would get a good spin. This doesn’t do this consistently now. Today , I had my bonus reset back to what it was. So, only got inferior spins left. PLEASE fix to how daily spin used to work..Version: 2.25.0

SluggishIt took me awhile to get used to the change from bejewelled 2 to bejewelled blitz but then I loved it. This new version is slow i.e. Sluggish and what's with the annoying glittery jewels that distract from the game? However, regardless of whether or not I like all the new features my biggest gripe is that the game seems to be so slow now. I used to play at least once a day now it's more like once a week..Version: 1.4.0

Royal match ads!!I have played bejeweled blitz for years. It has always been my go to game. I will no longer be playing this game anymore! The constant playing of the royal match ads and the length of the ads is ridiculous! The same ad plays over and over again! The irony is that the royal match game stresses it has no ads! I have always enjoyed bejeweled blitz but I will no longer be playing it!!.Version: 2.27.2

Ok this app used to be goodOn mobile we get extra chance spins and a 2nd chance go at the daily challenge if you watch an add that’s cool but hey ho lie and behold they seem to have removed it ..also be vary wiery of pop ups this game has its so easy to. accidentally accept an d find charges cause they are so fast ..so easy to double tap and accept charge ..developers never accept responsibility..those pop ups should be banned as we can’t stop them sometimes as I’ve said they are so fast and it’s a simple mistake to make especially after watching free adds which provide game credits ..this I notice has bee. A recent and snide move by the developer and they should be ashamed .. otherwise great game ..also would like to add an option to buy shards I stead of having to get them in chests I won’t donate anymore this app it’s a rip off.Version: 2.7.0

Too greedyI used to love playing bejeweled but now its just completely focused on micro transactions. I get it, everyone needs to make money but what frustrates me is that in your description of how all these new in-game currencies work you state that the gold bars can be used to buy coins, spins, and chests. However they cannot actually be used to buy coins; they can only buy spins and chests which are random.... Additionally, the entire game is focused on using these rare gems now, which have gotten so ridiculous that the entire map is just exploding the entire time and im not even making matches and playing the game, the board is just auto-clearing the whole time. So stupid. I remember when it actually use to be a challenge to get a 1m score, you had to get two blazing speeds by actually playing the game and make your own matches. Not to mention that the *rare* gems were actually rare and you got them randomly. Now they are always available to buy, very expensive and are required to enter all these challenges youve created. Can you please just create a mode that is reminiscent of the original bejeweled blitz? Like a challenge mode with its own leaderboard where you have to buy your powerups and there are no rare gems, or maybe just a cats eye..Version: 2.6.0

Ripped offTwice in one week got ripped off. Played an egg with bow. Cost big dollars. Right at end of game it froze. Lost dollars and score. Today after playing the tasks. Was just finishing the last of them to get chest etc blue diamonds. Froze again. Lost everything I played for🤬. Other than that it’s an ok game.Version: 2.9.2

OldieThis new update game is to hard to us older people. Why can’t u make the old game available to us in our senior years. We can see the young generation would love it..Version: 2.1.1

Ugh the ads!I’ve been playing this for years but the ads are just getting more and more prolific. Between games and even when you are claiming a hard earned prize, up one pops. Dial it back guys, please..Version: 2.25.1

CrashingApp keeps crashing while in a game. It’s particularly annoying because my coins and gems aren’t being restored. I’m constantly losing resources with no gain..Version: 2.26.4

DiscouragedBlitz has been one of the best games out there and as all my favorite games succumbed to greed, I had 2 left: Angry Birds and Bejeweled Blitz. Then Angry Birds needed to be deleted from my phone. Now, it’s Bejeweled that will get the ax next. Some of the tasks have become IMPOSSIBLE to achieve and I have yet to figure it out. FORCING us to equip and use Rare Gems before we can advance is a horrible display of greed. FORCING us to play 25 Blitz Championship Games before we get the new boost? No bueno. And this last update, messed up one of the tasks. Every time you press play, it redirects back to the Special Championship Blitz game board! There’s no way to achieve the ridiculously high Total Game Score, even if one is willing to do the work. I’ve really had it with this game. The Daily Game and Daily Spin... I don’t even want to get started on that topic, as my blood pressure will blow up. So many of my friends are I’m disabled & cannot get out so I made sure to have plenty of games, books & crafts to keep my mind off of the pain & to entertain me... and now, I’m getting ready to delete this one too. And I’ve supported this app monetarily...and not in a small way. PLEASE FIX THIS GAME? Thank You.Version: 2.8.0

Absurd level of pay to win (hundreds$$)Title says it all. The utter magnitude of money required is actually insane. If you want any chance to even get to the middle of a competition expect to pay hundreds $ or grind for years. The disproportionality is what is so staggering, and exactly why I don’t waste time with app games, but this is NEXT LEVEL PAY TO WIN. It WAS the only app game I’ve ever played bc there was real visual acuity skill to be gained and there is too many apps that are pay to win. I played thousand plus hours, since early days. Now, unless the greed lvl comes down substantially, I’m done. The game revolves around competition, but uses boosts. If u don’t max them you can’t compete. To fully upgrade just 1 of the 3 boosts allowed in a game it takes MONTHS OF DAILY WORK or YOU CAN PAY ROUGHLY 75$ plus to do it via roundabout in game purchases. There are 9 boosts so do the math. Naturally there are always ppl who think paying to win makes you a winner so if you aren’t willing to drop a few hundred dollars on the game there is literally ZERO point playing. And don’t be fooled into thinking you can eventually skill your way to the top. I’m a professional gamer, and I can push 2 matches a second but it literally means nothing. The algorithms and money decide who wins..Version: 2.11.0

Old version far superiorI used to play bejeweled blitz daily. Was quick, fun, challenging. Now the gems fall so slow and it’s slow to load and generally slow all round. Pity .. the faithful player will dismiss this new version. I deleted it a while back when it slowed so bad. Imagine my disappointment when I re-downloaded it and it has not been fixed. This is my first game review... take note this means I miss the old version bad!.Version: 2.7.0

Be Careful!I did the Blitz Quest thing last week and completed all the tasks over 4 pages, alas it did not pay out. I contacted “support” and now several days later and having invested about an hour of my time, I am no further forward. They say they put gold bars and shards in my account (I can’t swear they did or did not) but the “won” extra gems and 25K in coins they did not. Having dealt with 4 individuals who kept asking for more screen shots and details which I previously supplied, it came to nothing except they don’t know their product and they did not come through on fully honouring what the “prizes” were supposed to be. Not worth the effort..Version: 2.15.1

New update doesn't workSo many glitches now especially with new updates, game will freeze mid play and other issues. Now I can’t even login through Facebook on the app. Can’t play till issue is fixed. This is very inconvenient especially when your trying to complete challenges before it resets.Version: 2.25.1

No Improvement HereWhat happened to this game? I played every single day before the latest upgrade. Either I have lost my mind or certain features just don’t work like they used to. The reduction in the size of the game board was the first thing that I noticed and this change has made it more difficult to distinguish between the different jewels. This new version seems to have a mind of its own. None of the boosters seem familiar. It is difficult to determine where to go to find everything that is needed for the successful completion of a round. Players must now look at everything on the board, jostling between multiple layers of “enhancements” just to get a feel for which features are being used in each round. Improvements are supposed to be just that however, this upgrade failed miserably. Please rethink what changes really need to be kept and which ones need to be thrown out. Maybe once a week is about all that I want to play these days. Hopefully something will click with your developers and you will return most of the previous features. Not happy 🤨🤬🤯🤔at all!!.Version: 2.1.2

Updated review - trying to catch you outThe adverts have started in force, not only that some of them forget to place the 'x' and the new ones put the 'x' in the corner to install! It's a proper work around to make money or get you to other landing pages. After a few games you'll work out how not to get caught out - these guys sold out big time! *Updated review* I've played this game for 5 years but the latest update, clunky graphics and jittery screen is enough.....time to delete for good.Version: 2.1.1

Gem bonus fixedI agree with the previous comment about this function being fixed. I’ve also played this game daily ever since it was released. Never once got the bonus!!!!!! Also it’s become very ‘buggy’ in recents months, awards not being given in daily events, you try and email to customer support which take ages and then by the time they do get back to you, ( with the very patronising message, I understand your frustration’ ahem, no you don’t!) the event has expired. I wouldn’t mind so much but when they actually take tour cash for certain items I expect this app to work, first time, everytime. Sort it out!.Version: 2.20.0

Mostly fun.This is a nice game to play against friends and letting you try to best each other’s scores for a week is sweet. The mini games against strangers for coins, shards, etc. are nice to. There is a daily game that allows you to win coins and gems to use but it is very unreliable and crashes often. I’ve learned to know when it would crash though. If I am more than halfway to the score needed to get the coins and gem, with more than 30 seconds to go, the game is going to crash and kick me out to my phone’s home screen. When I go back, there is a 10,000 coin fee to play that particular game again. Due to it happening once or twice daily, I can only give 3 out of 5 stars. p.s. - At the end of the game, when going for the grand prize, never pick the top, right corner. I play about 10 games daily, have picked that spot every time for this entire year and the grand prize has never been there. I’ve seen it ever place but there, so we’re approaching a statistical impossibility..Version: 2.7.0

Disappointed with scoring...Two things that REALLY bug me.... When you log in to face book, all the hard work you did offline is lost with no warning... Scores are all reset bar the total..., then when you've saved up a fair bit of coins, the "special" items purchase button pops up in the same position as the start button , and you can't cancel an accidental press like you can with the other bonuses... Bang ... You just spent 75k , too bad for you... If it didn't do these two things I would be happy, as it is, I tolerate it..Version: 1.7.1

Logging in?Why do I have to log in with Facebook every time I open Blitz? It’s very annoying..Version: 2.26.3

Facebook friendsLove the game! Lost my Facebook friends I cannot receive gems let alone send any :(.Version: 2.23.0

PConstantly stalling and losing gems the game freezes and then you have to restart it to continue so many glitches and happening more and more despite updates I have lost so many gems and coins due to unexpected freezes and it’s just becoming more troublesome really disappointing Prefer to give zero rating and it never fixes with updates despite reporting oribjens terrible.Version: 2.24.2

Overly complicated and burdensomeThis used to be my go-to game when I had a minute to spare. Sadly, despite trying the new version for a while, I've stopped playing entirely. Aside from the unpleasantly deceptive pop-ups trying to trick players into paying money and/or linking their FB accouts (why is there not a button for "I don't have one, stop badgering me"?), as well as the various gameplay changes to enforce pay-to-win, the update simply has much too high a cognitive load to be enjoyable. I used to be able to open the app and be playing within a couple taps; now, there are boosters and gems and boosters for the gems, at least four different currencies to pay for it all (and I still don't know what one currency is even for!), which must be navigated and dismissed and dealt with before I can even start playing. The amount of tedious management involved in the game is now far too high to be remotely enjoyable. I hope the changes will be fixed and streamlined in future updates, but if not, I'll sadly have to delete one of my first-ever apps..Version: 2.2.1

LOST EVERYTHING NOT HAPPY!!!Opened the game on my phone this morning and have lost all my points, lost all my gems won from the daily challenge and have to start from the beginning!!! What is happening with this app lately?? Bad updates, can't contact developers and constant disappointment with a game I've loved and played for years. Just about to give up and delete. Come on Pop Cap, smarten up!!!.Version: 2.23.3

Why?I have been an avid player for many years, but I think I am done. Most of your upgrades over the years have been great, but this last one leaves a lot to be desired. The daily events was fun at first but is so rigged that it is nearly impossible to win. The five step events were nice for a challenge but when my hundreds of gems that I have built up over the years are practically gone just to complete a few of the levels now there has definitely been a injustice. Last night I was just completing a level and my game flashed and reset. I lost almost a million coins, almost 2k gold bars, 1,700 purple diamond thingys and 8 crystals. The entire game reverted back to playing with the fictional character players. When I logged back in their Facebook it was like an entirely different account, none of the people were listed I play against. All of the past event I won and completed were lost not to mention all of my hard earned items. Not sure what game you are playing but count me out. You don’t even have the decency to reply to my request as to what happened. I have been a loyal player until now but enough is enough!.Version: 2.2.1

CarolecoopSince new update I can not play this game. When I press download it doesn't allow me to open. I had problems with the last update. Please help me to fix this problem. What has happened to this game I can never get the money I've won playing a game , can never watch an ad always says (out of ads come back later ) doesn't matter what time of day it is always says the same. Unable to get extra spins or open chests it's one thing after another been like it for weeks not worth playing anymore if you can't get bonuses or money..Version: 2.14.0

Problems not fixed.Every time I receive the option to watch a video for another chance to win coins, the first time I select it will pop the error “Oops out of ads”. The second time it usually works. But not always. Then the occasional offer to watch a video for 4000 coins pops up “oops out of ads” just one chance for that one and it’s gone. I haven’t been able to collect on that offer in months. When you play and you’ve collected a number of coins during the game and you’ve also collected a number of multipliers. When it tallies the final coin count it drops a multiplier 4/5 times which means means you don’t get the number of coins you should have received. That said, why would I spend money to buy coins for play if the game is going to steal winnings from me??? Here’s a clue...not paying money to a game I don’t trust. I’ve continued playing the game because I generally like it but the bugs (and deceptive awards) have gotten to the point I’m ready to delete the app and never look back..Version: 2.15.1

Game is rigged but playable- If you care about fair odds, this is the most important point so I put it first. When you play a rare gem at the end you get a board with an apparent “1 in 9” chance to get a high prize. So I tested it. I played 100 rare gems and each time I clicked the same spot. In a completely fair game the prize should have landed in that spot about 11 times. Nope, 0 times. So that theoretical 11% chance you might expect from a 1 in 9 choice game is actually less than a 1% chance. I’m confident that anything luck based in this game will be rigged. So the good news is this. I haven’t spent anything on this game, nada, nothing. Have I watched the same ad over and over? Yes but usually I just put the phone down for 15 seconds and actually interact with the world or stare out a window. There’s no *need* to spend money. The base game mode with no special gems is always free so there’s no pay walls to hop if you just want to play. In fact, with the luck based bs I mentioned above I’d avoid spending money. Progress will be slow if you don’t have patience with the daily spin or if you struggle to get some high scores in the blitz champion board but tbh, the nature of the game is such that I’ve never played it for “progress” since it’s played in quick rounds. So yeah, complaints are legitimate but I find it perfectly easy to play and enjoy without dumping the contents of my wallet into it..Version: 2.22.0

Very frustratingBombarded with “Royal Match” 24/7. Game no longer winnable. Way too many players in group. No longer offered discount on try again. Updates are forced on you - can no longer play until you update..Version: 2.27.2

App won’t launch ( MMS2331)I can no longer launch the game it just goes to a black screen. Since reporting to EA I have had to deal with u helpful replies telling me to link the gane to Facebook and that I will get 130,000 coins added to new account. So no technical support appears to be available they just want you to start from scratch with all progress being lost that’s not a solution for a faulty service / product ! I note latest update 2.21..1 let’s you link to your Apple account - too late for me now but hope no one else has to deal with advisors who are not willing to resolve problems and just sending standard uninformed responses back to emails despite asking fir spec of phone etc - without ant technical investigation being carried out..Version: 2.21.1

Everyone quit playing.Unfortunately since you made all the changes to bejeweled blitz all my friends quit playing. You have made it so difficult to play anymore. Can’t get enough points to play unless you are willing to buy packages. I also will be quitting. Shame on you. All about the money I guess. Finally quit playing. All my 18 friends quit at least 6 months ago but I continued playing. You have made it so impossible to collect on gold cats. Shame on you. Wasting my life I decided today. I must have tried at least 50 times to get gold star cats. You have achieved that is impossible to get. Yours was my favorite game but I will no longer waste my life trying to win at your game. I have finally joined my friends. Shame on you. Looking at reviews they also join my sentiments. Good luck on keeping people playing your game. I’m the 19th of my friends to quit. They are smarter then me. Quit along time ago. I’m the last one. Sending the review and then deleting the app..Version: 2.17.2

Bugs, Glitches, & Crashes. NO Fixes!The last update promised bug fixes and improvements, and instead I am left with a game I NO longer want to play. My championship games crash every 3rd or 4th attempt, and usually when I am earning a really high (possibly winning) score. The Daily Challenge is useless unless you win on your 1st attempt. I cannot believe I am saying this, but “Where are the ads?” You used to get 2 bonus daily spins by watching ads and multiple “free” attempts at the Daily Challenge. Plus you could supplement your coin supply if you were willing to watch ads, but they have almost completely disappeared which is weird because I am pretty sure they are a large part of your revenue stream. This 14th birthday appears to be DOA. I wonder what new game I will find to play. TL;DR. The new update is complete crap and riddled with problems. It needs to be fixed ASAP or you are going to lose a large number of players..Version: 2.24.0

Features now get in the way of an addictive gameThis version now has so many bonuses, special gems that are being offered all the time that it clutters up a really simple and addictive game making it cumbersome and annoying. Feels to me like the developer pushing in game sales over gameplay..Version: 1.2

A disgusting gambling simulatorI used to love this game, 15 years ago, when it was just a game. I downloaded again after so many years away, the ‘game’ is still amazing, but now it’s a disgusting gambling simulator with ads shoved down your throat and endless ‘tasks’ and ‘click here to buy more’. Mainstream gaming is in a shameful place where training young people to grow up with some form of gambling addiction is the goal. Of course EA now owns the franchise and profits are put before people, and games aren’t made for the art or fun of it. The ‘human beings’ who made this and contribute to it should be ashamed of themselves..Version: 2.24.2

It okHi I think this game is awesome the first time you try it but it starts to get boring and there's not much to do. I think they should add quests or something extra but great for a start. there should also be in instructions, it was only lucky that I had played it before. Maybe some new high scores in the game because I'm number 1 on my iPad and have nothing to try for. There should also be achievements for this game in GameCenter. But overall a 3 and a half star experience.Version: 1.2.1

New update terribleThis game WAS an enjoyable, daily time waster for me, I’ve literally played this game tens of thousands of times. WAS good fun. WAS quick to load. WAS easy to use. New update has overly complicated it. Design is so busy now. Think I’ll be deleting this now.Version: 2.1.1

Daily Spin RewardsUnfortunately, the rewards are fake, specifically for the daily spin which I have won numerous times without the winnings ever being rewarded. I have attempted to troubleshoot any perceived issue with their support team (what a joke!) AND contacted customer service for help with no response. I have spent quite a bit of real money on other games, but refuse to spend another dime on this one because the winnings are a scam. Not to mention the grand prize bonus at the end of special rare gem contests… you NEVER win! How do I know? I have been selecting the same button for the grand prize at every chance for several months now and have never won, which is a complete scam and a fraud. Don’t spend a nickel on this game. I will update or remove this review if the issue is ever remedied but I’m not holding my breath. Very bad gaming company. Frauds!!!.Version: 2.26.4

Dolly beProblems popping up again trying to play spin and daily challenge. Both saying Oops no ads available - I’ve only played 2 spins and one try at the daily challenge because if this - and guess what, the bubble advert is back causing problems again. Please sort out this problem of no adverts - having one chance only to win a gem or coins etc is really annoying. I also agree with the reviewer who states that the 9 options to win coins after playing a gem is a fix. I have never won more than £50k - and I know there have been times when I have played 6 games in a row and won just £5k every time - what are the odds of that when you have 9 options each time. I also think that on any occasion on daily challenge when a player exceeds the amount top amount to get the gem available, they should also win the excess they have achieved. Ie daily challenge game is that you must get a score of £15k to win the gem if the player accumulates £25k to win the gem, he should also get the extra £10k. I often go above and think it is stingy to just get them for a large excess amount. Hope you can help with the lack of adverts soon. Thanks.Version: 2.15.1

Just awfulIn the middle of a match I decided a power up wasn’t working, so I paused the game and selected to go to the main menu. Now because I was wearing headphones I had the in-game volume turned way down. Instead of taking me to the menu however, a video/audio commercial was played where a man yelled “NEED CASH TODAYYY??!!!!” at the absolute full volume of my device. Now why a commercial would play when I attempted to go to the menu is one thing, but why such an aggressively loud commercial played when every other one that had played had a completely normal volume, is an absolute failure of the developer to produce quality and to respect their players. I understand that these commercials aren’t produced by the developers in anyway, however this isn’t just some random company, this is popcap, and I expected better from a company that used to care about its products and its customers. Hey... come to think of it I bought bejeweled on my phone when it first came out on the App Store for 3.99, and it didn’t have commercials, but did include Blitz... So popcap is actually putting commercials in a premium version of their game. Way to go guys. Way to go..Version: 2.5.0

Too many unfixed bugs to make the game enjoyable anymoreLoved playing this game but now it’s gone downhill with some bug that seems to reduced your collected bars when watching videos for extra moves! Reported few times to app developers but nothing being sorted. It’s hard accumulating the bars these days as you can inly watch 3 videos which gives you maximum of 15 for the day. So many times I almost completed the level but after watching video it freezes and that’s when it deducts your gold bar..Version: 2.21.1

Its all a conSimilar to other posts, the 500k coin jackpot is never scored. There is a smart algorithm that ensures no matter what one you choose it will never have 500k of coins. Why not be honest about it? Played in excess of 200 games and only picked the centre option. Guess what happened when i picked a different option - yep the middle one suddenly had the jackpot!! Also, the game regularly crashes when you are due a free chest resulting in no free items!! Guess they want you to be p!ssed off at how poorly coded it is!! As a result of the above i refuse to buy anything as you are likely to spend money only for it to crash - you get nothing and they get cash!! They need to make getting shards a little easier but that might affect their revenue stream!! There are better games out there!!.Version: 2.17.1

New updateJust downloaded new update..lost all my levels, boosts and jewels..not impressed..luv this game , play offline but with all the 'issues' in last 24 hours crashing halfway thru a game n losing boosts n coins etc, I am just about to find a new game.!! Have uninstalled n if reinstalling does not work- bejewelled you will be gone!!.. Not happy player.!!.Version: 2.25.1

Losing its AppealI've been playing for several years now and have only just realised (duh) that this 'game' has no end. You cannot finish it. If you are wanting that sense of achievement Blitz is not for you. Skill has no bearing on your results - only how much money you spend does. At pre-determined performance and achievement levels your scores will suddenly halve if you haven't spent enough. You will not be allowed to progress. So be clear: Blitz is not a free game..Version: 1.20.0

Daily spins.Although this game is very highly prejudiced against all players, it is very addictive and fun to play. Almost all players would probably agree on this point. However there are unfortunately other issues, problems, call it what you will. By far the greatest problem of all is the issue with the daily allocated 3 spins. For some unknown reason an awful lot of people struggle to get access to these spins. I personally know of many people that have only ever received 2 spins and they were of the opinion that this was the norm. I personally have always received 3 spins until recently when i struggle to get even 1. I have applied every fix that is allowed such as switching off all other apps and re-booting the system all to no avail. I attempted to get assistance from you guys but there was nothing helpful achieved. So for this reason alone i would have given this game zero stars but as this is not available, it would have to be 1 star . I have played and enjoyed this game for many years, unfortunately this type of issue spoils the game..Version: 2.25.0

FreezingEven though you reset Blitz this week. You still did not fix the freezing problem. Lost 2 more rare gems today to freezing. Will be playing less of this game as too frustrating. From now on when it freezes on me, I walk away from Blitz rest of the day. This used to be a fun game. I’ve played for over 7 years. No longer my go to game!.Version: 2.25.1

Years of playn 🤦‍♀️Woah.... so ive been playn for at least a couply years, been the only game i’d refuse to delete lmbo... gosh .im realising now🙄 so ‘yay’ when a new gem comes along, but heck, how expensive is that after 2 wks of saving spins 🤦‍♀️ then to play an older gem that cost as much!, i go spend my wkz savings spins on previously ‘wow’ gems, they seem to have lost their mojo 🤨 i now get the enticement of the game... gah. to my gah, im gonna delete this game 😔 sorta growed up dammit.Version: 2.7.0

Great games but the ads are a bummerLoved this games for many years but find the ad interruption super annoying. The rear gem downloads are always super slow. Fun when you are playing but the rest of the UX is a big downer.Version: 2.25.1

Aspects of the game are straight riggedI’ve seen other people comment about this already, but I want to reiterate that parts of this game are most definitely rigged. At the end of a round you randomly select from 9 various prizes, I have played this game for a decade plus, literally 10s of thousands of times and have never once won something that theoretically should be better than a %10 chance. Just leaves a very sour taste in my mouth, absolutely refuse to spend even a cent on this game out of principle. Also the prices they ask for things as in app purchases are utterly ridiculous to the point of absurdity, and they use a completely convoluted system to make things confusing and get you to spend more money. To fully upgrade one power up will be about 60k shards which means you’d have to buy a couple 100k gold to redeem for shards which would cost you literally hundreds upon hundreds of dollars. The game itself is fun, just a shame it’s developed and run by greedy mofos that go out of their ways to try and scam and fleece their players..Version: 2.26.3

Disappointing recentlyI’ve played this game for many years and have always considered it one of my favorites. Lately, however, the game has been far less fun. First, connectivity to your servers has been consistently poor, which slows the game with irritating delays. Second, it’s obvious you’ve changed the programming to make higher scores much harder to obtain. This is especially frustrating in Blitz Champions games like Gold Masters, where high-placing scores now depend entirely on seldom-occurring detonations that begin a cascading of rare jewels. This so rarely occurs of late that placing in those contests has become almost entirely dependent on luck. That is, you can only be competitive if you’re fortunate enough to draw rare jewels that are positioned to cascade automatically after you’ve extended the game with $25K in coins or 200 shards. Most of the time this no longer happens, so you’re usually doomed to lower scores no matter how fast or strategically well you play..Version: 2.17.1

Dodgy!I have always thought it suspicious that I NEVER won a big prize in the daily spin or at the end of a game, but I now am convinced that the prizes are certainly NOT random. I have just played 50+ games and chose the bottom right square every time - you guessed it - EVERY OTHER SQUARE won the big prize, but not the bottom right square - NOT EVEN ONCE. In fact I didn’t get over 25,000. Goodbye Bejeweled Blitz!.Version: 2.5.0

Update crashLatest update crashes app, freezes continually…had to shut my phone off cause it froze the whole phone. Thought it’d be fun to play this old game again but saddened to experience a terrible change. Not worth it even if you spend money on it cause when it freezes you lose everything..Version: 2.25.0

Last update ruined itAfter writing the last review, I tried it again because I missed it - and now the boosts don’t work. I loved this and played it often. But after the last update, I’m done. It’s become impossible to get on the leaderboard without spending money. No matter how well one plays, possible points have been lowered on the Challenge to keep one from earning enough points to buy gems, etc. one is no longer fairly rewarded, if compared to the way the game worked in the past, for excellent skills. One can keep the board lit up, and still have only a mediocre score, and it’s now impossible to get a super score without special gems - something a really good player could do in the past. Moreover - blasts actually take away profitable next moves from players, but it’s impossible to tell if one is even compensated for them. I realize the game has to make some money. And there are always those who will buy their wins. But it should be fair for those who just work hard and long and practice, too. Did you think we wouldn’t notice what the last update really did? It stacked the odds even more against winning without paying..Version: 1.39.0

Great game but .....Not happy with the upgraded game. Can’t get gems from the treasure chest which I did at first. I loved the game but it now frustrates me. I have contacted developers and received advice on fixing the problems I.e force closing, reboot etc and still having problems. Can’t be bothered to go through the long winded procedure they’ve advised me to send so maybe the end of the road with Blitz for me. Further update - I notice we don’t now get two more spins if we watch a video. The daily challenge now only gives you one chance to attain the gold score. I have to say that I am really disappointed with the game (which I really used to love) and now don’t feel inclined to play it very often..Version: 2.7.0

BlitzRevisiting this game after a long while. There are so many interruptions - pop-ups, fingers and arrows pointing giving hints, it is impossible to just sock in to the game and PLAY! I am well aware of how to play the damn game, & I find these constant interruptions enough of a deterrent that I've decided to just delete the app. What are these developers thinking, treating players like they are morons !?.Version: 2.26.0

Fun... Until it crashesGood game and fun, then after about 10 minutes it crashes and I lose the money I've just earnt. Very disappointed in the way it's designed to make you purchase the special gems. There is also no way to refund the gems. :( I expect better than cheap scams.Version: 1.2.5

Why so many forced ads? Again and again….When you don’t tap the screen for several seconds while the app is open, it will show a forced ad. Very sick of this. I have played this game for many years, and I remember when they were better than this..Version: 2.25.1

I really enjoy this game but….This is one of my favorite games with challenges that keep you coming back to play - but creators really need to change up a few things. Game play - the events & championships are so much fun, but you need to have certain gems to compete them. You would think that you could have access to all the special gems, but no. You only have access to a few of the gems, if you need a white special gem you’re out of luck because you can’t buy them so you really are out of options. Also, out of years of playing on & off I think I ha e only ever one 2 of the 500,000 coin bonus at the end of the rounds which is nuts considering how long I’ve played. And I cannot end without saying how ridiculous the adds are in this game . Holy crap it’s ridiculous, you would think like any of the other games there wouldn’t be an insane amount of adds you can’t skip. Half the time I just close out when an add pops up. Yea I’ll watch the adds when you can get extra coins, or spins on the wheel but after every singe round is nuts. I would rather pay the $1.99 like another game to just get rid of them for good. Please think about these things, it would be a great came like many of the other candy names we don’t speak of, lol. At least give us the ability to use all the special gems so I can actually beat some of the events !.Version: 2.23.0

Don't botherThis game is getting worse and worse. It used to be fun trying the special seasonal gems but these are all hidden behind real cash purchase, or the ridiculous daily challenges where you have no hope of getting in the top three unless you drop some real cash. Sadly this game is now just a blatant cash grab..Version: 1.33.0

Is it random or is it not?I believe that parts are fixed as so people can not win. A perfect example is the bonus you have 9 choices to choose from to win, well if you always choose the same spot occasionally you should win you would think right? NO!!!! I choose the same spot EVERY time and I NEVER get the top prize and I am not saying I should get it often but at least once out of 1000 tries yes after all there are only 9 spots that means all 9 spots should be a winner occasionally well that is not the case with this game (and now as more proof of the fixed Can’t win I JUST PLAYED AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN OVER 1000 attempts I CHOSE TO PICK ONE OF THE OUTSIDE 8 SPACES AND THE CENTER CAME UP SO THERE IS THE PROOF!!!!! First time picking a spot other than the center and the center came up)... so if that happens in the bonus round what about when you play the game. If it is made so you can’t win bonuses is it made for you to win and advance in the game? Your game is fixed against winning and receiving bonuses......Version: 2.9.2

The constant pop ups make me want to scream.This is supposed to be a fun time killing game. I recognize that this is an app and that the developers deserve to get paid for their work, and I don’t take issue with that at all. Except having three pop ups on every screen before you can even play a game (or after you’ve only played a single game) is incredibly frustrating especially when you can’t seem to exit out of the pop ups (even the ones that aren’t ads!) until the useless little animations go through. I’ve had this game for years, and each month it’s like they add another money grab option, which, again would be fine if it wasn’t so repetitive, time consuming, and in your face. I gave it two stars instead of one because actually playing the game is fun and simplistic, once you can get to it. Although I do agree with the other reviews in that it definitely seems as if the “jackpots” are rigged against you, that aspect really doesn’t matter to me and buying more “coins” to play with additions that lead to a higher score is a legitimate way for game makers to make money. But for the love of all that is holy I’m begging the developers to STOP with the excessive pop ups, especially little cave digging demon that WILL NOT GO AWAY until you let the animation play through..Version: 2.14.0

Hate itI looked forward to and played this game every single day without fail. Could not believe when I updated it today that it had become a different game...way too busy for me to sort through. At first I thought I had some sort of fake hacked game invade my iPad. lol But no, it has been replaced with a new and not improved, IMO, version. I read the developer’s prior responses to the current reviews, and no, it’s not basically the same game, and no, I don’t want to play it several MORE times than I already did to learn it/get used to it. A nice simple fun game has become a project. More flash and more “now do this, do that, choose this” and a bunch of pop up instructions do not make it “better.” I play this and 2 other games daily. One of them made way less invasive changes, embraced the negative reviews of its users, and removed the changes. I hope the same happens here. Want a NEW game? Make a new game. On the bright side, I just got more time in my day to actually be productive..Version: 2.1.1

No moreFun game but the ads are getting out of hand, deleted. Also, the people pointing out that the select prize being rigged are correct. You’ll never get the grand prize for any game. Ever..Version: 2.25.1

Troubles brewing.Gems are to expensive and not enough points. It’s obvious your objective is to run everyone out of their free points. And since the high point values at the end of the game, I have never once claimed the top prize and I’m sure my luck isn’t that bad. Bad enough I have to play against the clock but now I have to play against the computer as well. And while playing a game with the guitar I went for the extra 25,000 bonus and not a single guitar came out for the entire bonus. I’ve been playing this game for years. You’re ruining it and getting way to greedy in the process. I scored a 11,000,000 point game and all I got was 6100 points. You gave me 26,000 for a much less of a game total. You know, I’m up to about 280 something level with this game. I’ve been a very loyal player. Some times playing for 8 hrs or more. Either you better smarting up or I better. I stopped watching the NFL over the anthem and NASCAR over the Daytona 500 on Sunday. Bejeweled might just be next. Like you would care at all..Version: 2.1.1

TOO MANY ADS!!CHESTS TO BUY: - They have been missing since October 2023! Please fix immediately!! (Play on iPhone). GREY AD BANNER AT BOTTOM OF SCREEN: - It covers the icons at the bottom! You can't access them & have to close app & reopen. TOO MANY ADS: - For 6+months ads have drastically increased! - Been playing daily for 10+ years & this is the worst the ads have ever been!!! Over 4 times more then before!! - 3 worst ads are Royal Match, Royal Kingdom & Candy Crush! Account for 75% of ads. Have to tap 4 times to make these ads close!! This is VERY WRONG!! CHANGE THIS IMMEDIATELY!! - Royal Match ads: getting them 70% of the time!! Stop this immediately!!!! GLITCHES WITH ADS: - When Ad ends & you Tap the X the App Store page opens. I tap "Done" & App Store page goes away. I tap the X & the same thing happens over & over! I have to close & reopen the app! Stop this from happening!! - Many ads when you tap the X it opens a site in Safari!! This is wrong!! Fix it!! ADS POPPING UP AT STUPID TIMES: - BLITZ GAMES: - Playing game just before they end (my work day ends then) & immediately a 30 second ad will play before I choose from 9 gems! This keeps me from being entered in the blitz game!! Fix ASAP!! - Game ends & I pick from 9 gems, then an ad plays & I never get to see what I win!! (I can hear the sounds of winnings). Fix ASAP!! - Working on events & ads popping up at stupidest times! - If screen if left idle for 20 seconds usually an ad pops up ALL BLITZ CHAMPIONS GAMES: This problem has been here for the 10 years I have been playing! (I use an Apple iPhone & my husband an Apple tablet. We play daily.) - I cannot see the players rankings, scores & stats (square yellow podium button on the lower right side). My husband can see his. - This happens in ALL Blitz Games! - IT HASN'T BEEN WORKING FOR APPLE iPHONE ALL THESE YEARS!!! I have written you so many emails over the years regarding this! When are you finally going to fix this!!!! - Games do not show my ranking after playing a game. Was I in 4th place? 12th place? I would like to know how close I was!! I have to close the app & come back in for the game I just played to be listed if I won. 10 CHAMPIONS TOURNAMENT: - I will be playing the event before it ends, but my game is not counted in the event. If players are playing ANY EVENT before it ends our games should be included in that tournament!! - When event ends let it show what place I was in!! You just close green banner. Players want to know how they did! EVENTS: - Events are supposed to end 1 hour after the Blitz Quests. Many times they end at the same time & I lose all my rewards from both events! FIX THIS IMMEDIATELY!!! UPDATES: - Let us be able to play until WE CHOOSE to do the Update!!! - Don't force players to download a bad Update!!! GAME STATS: - Add the total number of gems removed during the game. DAILY CHALLENGE: - The game app for Tablets is easier then the app for Smartphones & THIS IS WRONG!! Playing on tablet you win the challenge on the first time 70% of the time! Playing on smartphone constantly takes longer, anywhere from 4-10th try! Many people I know experience this!! THIS IS NOT FAIR!! - Quite often you cannot win it with 10 tries (phones & tablets). ALL OF YOUR PLAYERS SHOULD BE ABLE TO WIN IT IN 10 TRIES!!!.Version: 2.27.2

There is a coin bug that needs to be fixed!!!In the span of two weeks time I have been robbed of my coins. The first time this happened was after I posted a tip score on my leaderboard. The game glitches and rewards me with 4.1 BILLION coin, on top of the 200k I had saved up. I was in total disbelief, I had to count the commas to make sure I was seeing that correctly. In fact I was, so I go to repurchase the egg power up(120k coins) and then the game tells me that I don’t have enough coins. Huh??!! Surely I knew the game would correct itself, and my balance would go back to what I should have, NOPE....the game takes my hard earned 200k coins too. —————-UPDATE—————————— 5/2/18 this game steals my coins AGAIN. I had 220k coins in my wallet , I purchased the egg boost, now I have 100k in my wallet..... play one round....I got rewarded 10k coins(so now I have a total of 120k in my wallet) so I go to make a re-purchase and all of a sudden I am missing my coins...I do not have the boost. I will not be playing this game too much longer if it’s going to keep stealing my hard earned coins from me..Version: 2.2.1

Bejeweled Bliss your game is still crashing after Latest update!!!I have been a long time user and have never written a negative review. However, I was enjoying your Blitz Quest until you started making it impossible to get through all the levels. The rewards really aren’t that great, either. It involves winning gold bars from the Blitz champions games. It is impossible to win that many gold bars required to pass a level in Blitz Quest unless you are in the top 3. This is virtually impossible considering the number of people that are playing the game. It means only 3 people can advance. That is crazy. Here is the effect it has on me. I quit playing with disgust. Is that the effect you want on your loyal, longtime players??? Really???? Please don’t require this or make it attainable, or you’re losing another player. I have also lowered my rating until this is changed. You guys are losing your followers..Version: 2.20.0

Good but needs workOverall the game is a fun way to pass time but matches need to be longer than just one minute. Even two minutes would make it so much more enjoyable. Also, game keeps crashing and won't go past loading screen. Had to delete..Version: 1.2.1

ReviewI don’t like the latest version of Bejewelled Blitz at all. Everything costs more and you get little reward. To get the 3 daily spins you have to play multiple games in the Blitz Champions. When I play games in the Blitz Champions there has been multiple times where when the game ends it just disappears from the list, you don’t get the opportunity to click on your winning entry. Please bring back the previous version..Version: 2.9.0

Bonus is riggedI have played the same bonus pick every game for literally more than 1000 games. I dropped my phone tonight while picking and hit a different one… wouldn’t you know tonight’s the night it hit that spot. Just play for free and level up… don’t fall for the scam by giving them money for coins.… other than that I enjoy the game..Version: 2.25.1

FailYour app hasn’t been working well lately. Watching ads to supplement your points no longer works, whether to gain more coins, get extra spins or additional rounds if chest opening..Version: 2.27.2

Not happy!I stopped playing bejewelled for awhile I decided to pop back in and have a few games, all my coins gone! I had thousands and they’ve all gone. I also paid for the ads to not pop up and guess what? I’m still getting ads? It won’t let me sign in with my id and your uncontactable. So bejewelled o wonder your loosing so many players. NOT HAPPY GUYS.Version: 2.22.0

Bejewelled blitzLove the game, but...what happened to happy hour? More freebies would keep me coming back. Love the new additions...keep em coming!!!! Sometimes the sound quality is terrible!!!! I had all kinds of shards and they’ve disappeared. What gives? a Also, you won’t ever convince me that the end of game rewards are random. Not at all. It’s definitely fixed. Have played for 12 or more years. Have won hundreds of $25,000, $15,000, $35,000 but perhaps 6 $500,000. Fixed! And no idea why you’d do that..Version: 2.27.2

No App SupportI have been playing this game for years and encountered a problem when opening it tonight. I got a message saying that it is no longer shared with me and I need to purchase it from the App Store. When going to the App Store it won’t allow me to purchase it as it says I already have it. Too scared to uninstall as it would mean losing all the coins and gems etc that I have saved. App support is useless. Takes you to the EA website which is incredibly difficult to navigate and find contact details to get assistance. It made me create an account and then gave me an error message. I am now no closer to fixing the problem..Version: 2.20.0

New versionNew version very confusing and I have lost all my Gold.Version: 2.1.1

No Jackpot EverI’m seen this mentioned before, but having played thousands of games without ever hitting the jackpot I’ve begun to suspect this game is rigged. Rewards are few and the game will lock on occasion and instead of reverting back to let you try again it simply re-starts and you’re minus whatever jewel and coins spent. This has happened numerous times now and as there’s no easy way to report you’re pretty much screwed out of whatever you’ve managed to build up. As the game requires numerous plays to start seeing rewards it’s gotten to the point where frustration has replaced enjoyment and I play less. Also the ads are super repetitive and pointless. Happy hours always cost money, the coins you build up are not good for much other than special gems which are expensive for the rewards. Paying for additional time is often not worth doing either as it won’t help your score much. Bummer, this used to be fun..Version: 2.21.1

DisenchantedHey we sadly pull the plug on Blitz today as having enjoyed the thrill of winning top place several times we didn't like after 24 hours being relegated by other players who scored less. Thanks for some good fun though..Version: 1.8.1

Do not get to attached to the game they cheatBecause it quick game I have been playing game for 12 years play about 5 mins per day but they have algorithm that guarantees you never get top prize seven years I always picked dead center for prize 2-3 times a day for seven years the first time I choose not to pick middle the top prize is in middle and now just before this review I had again been choosing middle for five years now again first time to not choose middle it shows up Fun for five mins a day but do not consider more then that and never buy their in app purchase.Version: 2.22.0

BlitzHi I just wanted to let you know the games we play to win the lot but I have tried the last 2 days to get and try to play and it won’t without playing these games you can’t win and that makes to win anything I have won all the other games but if you can’t play these games you can’t win at all I have played this game for a long time could you please fix it please kind regards Mores.Version: 2.22.0

500,000 coins?I’m presuming the 9-piece lucky dip thing at the end of gem game is fixed? I’ve played gems every single day for as long as I can remember, and Not Once have I scored the 500,000 coin prize. I’ve tried everything. Looking away and picking completely at random, selecting the same one every single time for about a month, having someone picking any number between 1 and 9 and going with whatever they choose, passing my phone to someone and actually getting them to choose for me... If it’s fixed, then why not just have a single prize button that you press without being given the impression you have a choice as to the outcome. Not a massive issue obviously, but I’m curious anyway 🤷‍♂️.Version: 2.9.2

Discounted price offers? NO..Whenever you offer a special discounted price offer on a package, like gems plus coins, and I decide to purchase, I am always charged the full price, not the discounted price.. Very annoying. I have put in Support requests but am simply told to “put it on the forums”. Guess I won’t be purchasing again...Version: 2.6.0

LOST IN SPACE!This App has lost the ability to be reliable! It’s like the television show “Lost in Space!” Danger! Danger Will Robinson! It’s constantly Crashing with the New Boosts that have been introduced within the past couple of Years! The Super Spawn Boost is the worst and continually crashes My gameplay! I only use it when trying to compete in a Competitive Challenge and then like this week it has crashed every single day! I’ve tried to address this and other matters with this App and nothing has been resolved. One Customer Service Representative accepted the evidence I submitted, but couldn’t provide any further assistance and didn’t know whether it would get resolved! The Developers/Programmers Need to be replaced as this is Now beyond a Joke!.Version: 2.25.1

Crashes a lotIt crashes a lot and does not refund the stones we lost because of the crash..Version: 2.26.0

No Free Coins and Customer Support UselessSo the Free Coin option has disappeared.. which I use a lot.. sure watching 20 seconds of ads can be a bit annoying but I would rather do that then spend my money on coins when I know I won’t get much in return . But now that option is gone. I contacted support who advised me to check my connections.. I’m using my iPhone.. I did all that.. then happened across other people with the same issue. So how about EA YOU fix the problem because it’s obviously your issue. You must be losing lots of valuable advertising dollars because no one is watching those ads??? If it’s not fixed I’m going to delete .. I’m definitely not going to be buying coins and it takes forever otherwise to get the coins to win any tournament games. Not impressed..Version: 2.19.0

UPDATESI really like playing the games on my iPhone. I don’t, however, like feeling as if I’m being jacked. By this I mean, if the game is advertised as free to download, it shouldn’t be any ambiguity. If I put in my Apple ID password and I’m now on my credit/banking information. Why? If the game is advertised as if it’s free to play, then it’s free or you should make it clear that it’s “NOT FREE”. I’ve been just deleting the games that I’d long ago downloaded simply because I pressed the update because it seemed the only way to keep playing. NOT! So, there’s no OPT out button or the “X” and an update shouldn’t be used to try to fleece people. I can do crosswords for free. I’m insulted by your pitiful attempt at surreptitiously charging me to play a game that btw, you also cheat on. Like Subway Surfer, they just stole all of my points, lives, etc. in that specific game. They still try to get me to update but I have the option of pressing the “x” to continue playing the old version. People are BROKE ENOUGH AS IT IS, WE DIDN’T GET THE TAX BREAKS BIG CORPORATIONS GOT. SO NO THANKS, I’ll read and do crosswords, writing, etc. I won’t be extorted because I happen to like a game that was free when I downloaded it. Mama was right, greed begets GREED, no wonder the people who are that way are so miserable. WOW!! CHILD OF THE CREATOR OF ALL. I SEE YA’LL. JUST REALLY WHACK!.Version: 2.6.0

Ads you cannot minimizeGame is fun the ads are not. Even after watching (putting my phone done to do something else) I cannot minimize after it runs. Deleting game again for this reason..Version: 2.25.1

Blitz championsHow can you go from being the only person on the score board so obviously your in 1st place to nothing in one hour ? I played the purple triangle a couple of days ago & it only had one hour left of play & I was the only one with a score. When I checked after the hour there as no prize & no purple triangle game had gone from Blitz Champions? Also why is it when you play with the new boosts & gems that you’ve had to buy with game gold bars & shards etc you only get stupid low scores ? I’m getting very disappointed in this game..Version: 2.16.0

Super Encore spoils the game!I love this game and play it a lot, but the new Super Encore is spoiling my enjoyment. In the championship levels it has always been necessary to use the Encore costing 25k of coins if you wish to have any chance of getting a competitive score. The new Super Encore costs 200 shards and you get 5 seconds more than the usual Encore. 5 seconds can make a big difference to the final score. This makes using the usual Encore pointless. I will not use 200 shards for this as they are always needed for upgrades. So, this means that there will be no point entering the championship games in future. This issue needs to be corrected before I get so annoyed and delete the game! There is also the occasional issue of the game crashing on my iPad. When this happens I loose stuff..Version: 2.14.0

Dark patterns, rigged odds, BUGSThis game is full of dark patterns - pop ups and the like which try to get accidental clicks for the publisher's financial benefit. That is shady as it is. Worse, it sells "spins" and the like for real money, yet does not publish odds like any other fixed odds betting terminal must. While it's fun, the greed of the publishers really calls for an investigation by the DCMS, which regulates FOBTs (which this game effectively turns your device into) since the margins well exceed the 5% threshold. The publisher should also be honest and transparent about the bonus odds after completing a special gem round. Otherwise, fun game. Too bad about the publisher's bad ethics. Maybe find an alternative where the publisher isn't out to cheat the players. Worse, recently the developer has been so keen to drive players to blitz champion that regular challenges are beginning to cause crashes and fail to work. The developer is player-hostile. Don't give them the satisfaction of giving them your money or watching their ads..Version: 2.7.0

Points missingNot sure what happened to all my points? They seem to have disappeared? I have had points in the millions for many years now and I only usually buy one or two boosters or whatever they are called each week as I ration them - I don’t like to buy coins. (To me that’s cheating.) This week my coins suddenly dropped from the millions to around two thousand and I am sure that I did not use them. What happened to my points?.Version: 2.6.0

LoginI also have been playing this game for a very long time. I don’t like that I have to log into Facebook every time I open it now if I want my scores to be on record, to access my coins and points and what not.Version: 2.26.3

Do not spend your moneyGame is ok, and I will still play it. But please be aware that you don’t always get what you should eg spins - if you check what you have before and after spins, you will find you don’t actually get all the prizes you win! Ok when the spins are free, but is basically stealing if you have paid. No, as in none at all, rare gems won are ever received from spins. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! I wrote the above a considerable while ago, and nothing has changed. Prizes won are still not forthcoming. Play the game by all means, but SAVE YOU MONEY, it will be wasted otherwise..Version: 2.19.0

Deceptive tactics to make you frustrated and pay in gameI’m a pretty good bejeweled player in that I score in the 50 million plus each week. What’s frustrating is every weekly spin and every ‘random’ post rare gem game you can never win the major prize. I tested by clicking the middle icon for over 150 games and not once did I hit the jackpot. For odds that’s are supposed to be 1/9 that’s just a poor user experience. It’s really frustrating that the multiplier you’re supposed to get after destroying a certain amount of gems and allowing the board to settle doesn’t come. I’ve recorded my gameplay and tried to figure out why I don’t get the multipliers but there isn’t any reason unless it’s a bug. The new version also changed the objectives of the events as you play. You’re never certain how you can received the reward and just keeps you in game hoping to push you to buy. These are really deceptive tactics and I hope your customers come to understand what you’re doing and abandon the game like I am doing from now..Version: 2.7.0

Love the game, but site has 🧐 changed.I have played this game longer than I can remember. Just mindless fun & relaxing. There are some tricks to be aware of. Like all these game apps they prefer you purchase extras, but fun regardless, most of the time, without purchases. There are specially timed events to enter, the goals change from best score, amount of those “special gems”, etc.. Special Gems, that’s not always easy to define. While I have found a couple in my inventory list, on top, offers to purchase labeled special gems! I ignore most of those games. Some prizes I have never gotten, after this…(10’s) of yrs.. Notice to developers, there must be a bug on the app.! The worst is using your earned & won gems on games when the app is dragging to stay up. Played at least several tournaments games today & the site is so slow, I couldn’t break 20k for most of the games. Even tested it & bought (with games points) a labeled “Special Gem)! A beautiful butterfly & got shot down still. Turn up the speed please! When scores are normally in the 10’s of millions…something is wrong. Waste of gems, not fun to play when the site, app, or game plays against you like that..Version: 2.23.0

Game is utter garbage nowI have been playing for 10+ years. The game now crashes all the time and the only response from the developer is that this is a device problem. It’s not - I keep everything updated. Problem is when it freezes or crashes mid game, you lose the coins you spent on the rare gem or you lose the rare gem from your item box, it doesn’t reset. For a time there, EA would replace the lost coins or gems but no longer. I’m quite disappointed that a game I have loved for a long time has been reduced to such garbage. Oh and don’t get me started on the ads. Unbelievable. I’d give zero stars if I could..Version: 2.26.3

Starting to get annoyingLet me start by saying that this is my go to time waster game. But after the latest update the advertising has become more than just a minor inconvenience. When an ad come up for another PopCap game it doesn't matter where you tap on the screen (even directly on the close cross) Safari starts and then the App Store starts. Not only is the double app startup a pain in the behind, but the frequency of the ads has also increased. If this continues then I will be saying goodbye to one of my favs..Version: 1.6.3

Your new update crashes every gameThe new update crashes at the end of every game, seems like the new additions you added to the ninja thing causes it to crash. Takes the money though - every time. So basically you try to buy a rare gem, it takes your money and then crashes just at the end - and doesn't record any result - and keeps your coin..Version: 2.14.0

New version updateNot sold on this yet, and disappointed that my gem explorer levels have been deleted, was on third level, now back at zero. You need to work out you kinks. Don’t like that you don’t go back to home after each game.Version: 2.1.1

Can’t even launch app and can’t get help!I figured the reason I couldn’t launch Blitz on my iPad was that the iPad version was no longer supported. Just bought a new iPad and downloaded the latest app update and it still crashes instantly. So I can still only play on my computer through Facebook. I’ll be happy to write a new review if the problem is fixed!.Version: 2.9.0

1 Boost left and walking away.I started playing a couple years ago and haven’t spent a dime. Unlocked all the boosts except one and was planning to walk after unlocking it. Last night I decided it was time to walk. Why? As I said I haven’t spent a dime. All the powerful boosts are unlocked for me. Got enough coins and gems to last for days. Playing Blitz Champions matches now are no challenge. Last night I beat the 2nd place player in Gold Masters and Mystery Monday by nearly 300,000 each. Where’s the challenge? A new player clearly (if dedicated) would need to spend money or slowly grind out gold to unlock chests (for coins, shards and diamonds). Maybe the developers could have a veteran league, so they aren’t up against the new players. If you want a 3 match game (with annoying adds at times) this may be for you. If you want to succeed and progress in the game be prepared for a long, long grind or spend money. Last I apologize to newer players that walked away after seeing the unfair advantage an established player has. Note. I never hit the grand prize after playing a boost. 2 years plus playing and not once. For over a year I continually (There were a few times I accidentally picked a different one) picked the center prize (you have 9 choices in a 3x3 row). Although I can’t prove it, but I think it’s rigged against the player..Version: 2.24.2

Bogus bonusesI understand that every app tries to make money by having the player pay for some options but when it comes to the prizes, I have never gotten the big prize. How come we can all get the minmum prize of 5000 or 10000 many times yet never get the top 2 prizes such as 100000 or 500000? Fixed is all I have to say. I suggest to all to not install..Version: 2.20.0

Good but failedDon't get me wrong this is a great game but do not update it once you have it. So I updated it and then I wouldn't let me log in to Facebook from the app. Second thing that happened was I lost all of my coins now I had over 600,000 in coins and they are all gone. Third and last was I lost over 40 different rear gems. All of the work I put into playing this game and this is what you guys call an update..Version: 1.9.0

If it ain’t broken, don’t fix it!!!Ive been playing this game everyday for the last 7 years or so. It was so simple, but so much fun.. I love competing against my friends on Facebook and enjoy when Tuesday comes around when the new tournament begins. I absolutely hate the new lay out and find it confusing and tricky to understand. Haven’t been playing it as much since the new update and by the sounds of the other reviews I’ve read other people aren’t happy with the new version either and see that they have had no replies by the developers. The only replies I’ve seen are the complaints about it glitching. I wish you’d revert it back to how it was, but won’t hold my breath and don’t expect a reply from yourselves. If I could I’d rate this new version with zero stars but unfortunately I have to give it one to write this review. Poor show, :-(.Version: 2.1.1

Fun but frustratingI’ve played this game for years. Really enjoyed leveling up and getting gold stars for scores, and it’s a good way to kill a few minutes here and there(more like thousands of minutes). I even enjoy the latest update and the gem explorer challenges. Here’s what I don’t like though, I understand the devs want to make a buck but I’ve never spent a dollar on this game and now it seems like the fun is gone if you don’t. Sorry but I’d rather stop playing than spend real money on a game. Devs must also think people are stupid if you think for a second that your fooling anyone with the “randomness” of the prizes after playing a special gem. I’ve literally picked the exact same center prize for at least 10,000 games and miraculously have never received the top prize, I must be the luckiest man alive, and daily spins are exactly the same. I’ve literally spun thousands of times over the years and never once gotten the 1mil top prize..IMPOSSIBLE. If you’re not gonna allow people to win then why even offer any prizes? In short if you haven’t started playing this game I wouldn’t start now unless things are fixed and prizes actually become attainable..Version: 2.3.0

Too much advertisingToo much advertising for one minute gamed.Version: 2.25.1

DisappointedThe game would be great, if not for all the bugs, ads and being rigged against the players. The customer service is awful, if it even exists (I have never received a reply from a real person). The free spins & chests for watching ads have disappeared, but more spins are needed for finishing the quests, so practically forcing us to spend gold or real money to get spins. At the same time there are plenty of ads to be watched after every game - and not getting anything in return! Terrible way to exploit us and destroy an otherwise nice relaxing game! People have been leaving these reviews for years and despite the standard “we are looking for ways to improve…” there is no improvement..Version: 2.24.1

Latest version is a dud...I’ve played this app since its introduction. But the newly revamped version is crap. Oh, I learned its new features quite rapidly, but I play to win, and when I go in on the first day of a new round and the ‘fake’ players are showing 32 million points, I’m not wasting my money to play. Yeah, every now and then you get a ‘free ride’, after you’ve spent $20 Dollars or so and a consecutive hour. ‘Disco Zombie’, ‘Peashooter’, ‘Kokomo Kamari’, ‘Zombie Yeti’, ‘Blazing Steed’... get real, Blazing Steed is even a proprietary gem. Like you folks think we are totally stupid, or what!!! These pseudo players were in the original app, so we know them. But now, they are the elevated, so guess I’ll find a new game after I exhaust the current purchase. Oh, and the ‘prize’ at the end? I ALWAYS, for years now, pick the top left button, and I have NEVER won the jackpot points. If it were truely random, I’m literally thousands of games by me, I would have sometime win the jackpot points. I also notice that the bottom right hand button is almost ALWAYS the lowest payout, and NEVER the winner either..Version: 2.2.0

AdsI have been playing this game for about 5 years now with no problems however this latest version has extremely intrusive ads which interfere with game play..Version: 1.12.1

Disgusted In UK … Data control!This was my favourite app . But I will no longer be playing it. The latest upgrade shows updated terms which basically give me no option to manage cookies and therefore opt out of those which will share my data. In their NEW privacy policy , by agreeing to it … to quote …” I consent to the transfer of any personal information collected through my use of EA's Services, to the United States as further explained in the Privacy & Cookie Policy. PRIVACY AND COOKIE POLICY OF THE USER AGREEMENT CONTINUE” . It goes on to say basically , if I do not consent to EA sending my private data to the US I should not play any of their games ! In fact I find myself reading a message which though ‘polite’ is basically saying ‘agree to all our terms or sling your hook and don’t play our games’ . Absolutely disgusting. The security of my data and the harassment caused through cookies , is of the utmost concern to me and I never agree nor consent to having my data shared . EA probably couldn’t care less if I don’t play their games any more as they probably have millions worldwide who just hit the ‘agree’ button without checking what they are agreeing to. But let this be a warning to those who never check the contents of ‘agreements’ you are saying yes to your private data info being transferred, in my case , half way around the world! For what? / whom ? ….. George Orwell got it right didn’t he?.Version: 2.24.1

So soOne of the main objectives is to rank up through the levels. Officially there are 200 levels, but I have now passed that....and they ran out of names after 180 or so, so the name of my rank hasn’t changed - Bejewelled Infinity. The rest of the challenges seem too confusing to me. These are chances to get up to 500,000 coins after certain challenges. You get to pick one of nine chances to earn this, each with different payouts. I won the 500,000 ONCE and I would think with the laws of probability over the time I’ve played this, that this is somehow fixed so the top payout is rarely if ever reached..Version: 2.17.2

AdvertisementsNot sure why you have so many advertisements here. And not sure why we have to click 2 sometimes 3 times to remove it, and that’s after being forced to watch the bl00dy thing. Not only is it frustrating, your ads are draining my battery and interfering with my game. 🤬🤬🤬.Version: 2.24.2

Keeps crashing and stealing my special gemsIt still keeps crashing on me, I just lost another Which Witch gem (which I had to buy {100k coins} to play the Gem Masters tournament) the game was only half way through and it just froze up and then closed the game. Grr so frustrating; I’ve lost well over 10 special gems now and all of them were good ones like Saint Nick or High Roller etc and at least 500K of coins too. And I can’t use the website to post and get a refund like you said, it keeps crashing or redirecting itself so many times Safari can’t handle it. When are you guys going to fix this bug in the game?.Version: 2.9.0

A Developers Tale w /PicsI like some of the new features and the option of playing the new world wide version of BEJEWELED BLITZ. But now the game has become tedious and unfriendly due to all the unresolved app issues.. Earlier Today, I lost 2 diamonds, 3,513 chards, 3,280 gold bars, 6,197,226 coins and #1 spit on the LEADERSHIP BOARD w/ a high score of 16,400,300 due to the TASKS/challenges working improperly. These are some of the same issues from 6yrs ago as stated in Bejewels rating and review data. Ridiculous! I also have a few concerns, such as the cost to buy ADDITIONAL spins, chests rare gems etc.....they are waaayy too expensive particularly for people who are on a fixed income like the disabled, or children, or college students or just your average hard working citizen who maybe working pay check to paycheck. Furthermore, some of the tasks require you to match 10 hypercubes in a game or reach an outrageous high score of 11 million in a game. The app often freezes up, steals your points, money spent and rare gems without any responsibility or accountability from the developers. If your not going to fix the bugs, repair and or update the APP then PLEASE remove from the App Store.... as this app has the potential to Rob/Steal people’s money spent on buying more PURCHASES! I would appreciate a response and a satisfactory resolution...Give me my stuff back or make it right.... I have pics of the above data..Version: 2.5.0

Crashes too muchI like the game but since the last update it crashes literally every game..Version: 1.32.0

Bonus points are riggedI have played this game for years now. Decided I would play the same spot with the bonus....and it has never come up. I don’t understand what difference it would make for designers of the game if the bonus was truly random. I believe they set it up that way in an effort to have people buy more coins to play. Other than that, I like the game. Because I have never won the bonus, I refuse to pay to play. Their loss ultimately..Version: 2.17.1

Good game but glitches occasionally, and has become over-developed.Overall this is a good game, but it does occasionally glitch. One glitch resulted in an unwanted in-app purchase being made. Fortunately the App Store refunded the purchase. Tip - don’t press the home button to close down a glitching game with the same finger that you use to unlock your phone and authorise payments with! Also, the older versions of this game (in my opinion) were better than the current updated version. I think that the game developer should go back and draw inspiration from earlier versions (from around 5 years ago) before they plan their next update!.Version: 2.3.0

What the ....?Why the changes? The board seems much smaller, probably due to the new black background, and the site has been given a really clumsy home page layout. Yet, there are still problems with the board, especially the corners. As for the new boosts... I’ve just ‘bought’ another special gem. The old system dropped those ‘sales’ flashes in, but clicking on one accidentally returned the message that the transaction had failed, if the transaction was not authorised from iTunes. And the App Store would check each time. Not any more! Now it’s an email from the ‘App Store’ (it looks fake btw) and no way to revoke. Shame on you, developers!.Version: 2.1.1

Good game spoiltGood game spoiled by excessive and intrusive ads. Also impossible to "win" the max payout on the daily spin, it always shows next to any square that I choose, as others have commented. Advice for the developers, cut down on the ads and sort out the daily spin bug, we don't expect to win big every time, but once every so often would help to keep our interest. If this continues for much longer, then I will be binning the game for something that is not as intrusive with the ads and more rewarding..Version: 2.15.1

Black blitzBeen playing this for years, and have over $20 million in coins, tons of rare gems and gold coins. The update 3 days ago was ok until yesterday when I’ve to log in with birthday to play ?? What happen? Very unhappy and haven’t played since…..please explain !!!.Version: 2.26.3

Bejeweled Lighting GameDoes not work on my iPhone 14 Pro Max..Version: 2.26.0

If you love wasting moneyOver the years of paying this game its got progressively worse rather than better, leaderboards for daily events are full of cheaters with maxed perks meaning anyone who legitimately plays without cheating has zero chance of getting the good rewards and popcap/EA dont care to fix the problems either, i dont know if it because of the cheaters messing up the game algorithm but even after upgrading perks i still cannot get over 100 million points on the 30 second game yet a few months back i could do it with ease, either way once all my coins are gone i wont be playing this cash cow no more, micro transactions are heavily forced on you as grinding the leaderboards is getting next to impossible, i loved this game when it first came out but like i said its progressively got worse rather than better..Version: 2.23.0

Bejeweled blitzIt's great having the free daily spin, but this version is definitely slower. Plus where's my bejeweled 2 version that I paid for, it disappeared when I downloaded this 'free' version.. The icon is still there but game is gone :-(.Version: 1.16

Starting to hate this game I lovedJuly 3, 2022. I have four out many reviews both loving this game and disliking the fact that it crashes all the time. It has crashed three times in the last two days, not to mention the many, many times prior to this. When it crashes, “resume” does not work and you lose your gem, your coins (if you used them) and sometimes a game that you were doing terrific in. This outfit, so far, doesn’t care. They make it VERY difficult to contact them asking for info, game #, password, etc. etc. that you just don’t have or try to force you to Facebook. I am starting to think these crashes are intentional. Programmers, whoever you are, FIX YOUR GAME. August 1, 2022. Still crashing. I tried all their suggestions except deleting and re-installing as I would probably lose everything. Yes, they reached out with an email but did ZERO to compensate what I have lost so often when this happens. My IPad is older but powerful and I am NOT going to replace it to the tune of $1200 to play a game. Everything else works, all other games, movies, etc., etc except THIS game. Contacting them is VERY difficult, so difficult that I’ll just use this as my means to bring attention to this. They say it is not on their side, but it is quite a coincidence that it never happens if I don’t have a gem I’ve used involved, or used my coins to purchase one or in a not important game, just happens when there is something at stake. Once again, developers, FIX the problem..Version: 2.24.2

Horrible advertisingThe in-app advertising completely destroys this game. It takes forever to start a new game and the sound comes on for the advertisements which are very shonky. Sad they’ve sold out so royally..Version: 2.23.0

False Claim!Have been playing this game for a long time, and enjoyed it, until recently. I would use the function to claim 4000 coins for watching a promotional film. Yesterday I did this for about 40 minutes, before discovering that my coin total, had not changed! I tried for another 20 minutes, to no avail. I’ve just tried again and it’s still not registering! I used to spend on average £10 a week on “special” offers, but, I will not spend another penny, indeed I will not play this game again..Version: 2.16.0

Have to log in everydayI like the game but after the last update I have to log into facebook eveytime I play very annoying!!.Version: 2.26.4

Good game gone bad :(I love bejewelled and have done for a long time however this game has been destroyed, I remember playing this on the very early iPhone and being amazed at how great it was, I’m now on an iPhone 7 and it’s more unstable than ever, I’m not a game developer however when I can play next gen quality games on my phone and struggle to play a simple gem swapping game I am beyond disappointed, I even gave in and purchased some spins and got stuck in a massive crash loop where o couldn’t even get my spins so if you think throwing money at it will make it worth playing take it from me it won’t...so very let down by what used to be a great pick up and play game..Version: 2.4.0
