Zen Match - Relaxing Puzzle Positive Reviews

Immaculate VibesYou know how you download like gardenscapes or something and it gives you an ad for an even dumber app and youre like “yeah i think im at a point in my life now where i Will download Fashion Run Hospital Burger Tycoon Lite” and then in 2 weeks youre like “what in gods name is this doing on my phone” well. Such was my situation some months ago and such were my expectations upon downloading this app but as god is my witness i will be playing Zen Match as my casket is lowered into the ground eighty years hence. This app was forged by the gods and delivered unto us as fire from prometheus himself if you are the type of person who routinely finds themselves shackled to a solitaire addiction as a means of escape then be prepared because you are never getting clean from this game every time you start it up it says something reminiscent of “i am good enough i am smart enough and doggone it people like me” and then the plinky plunky music starts up and from that point on there are no thoughts. All the universe is head empty. There is only the plinky plunky music and little sets of three ladybugs. And when you finish a puzzle it gives you these lotus things that you use to decorate these rooms and here is the genius of it: decorating the rooms is only like sorta fun, so you never get frustrated at your lack of lotus currency, but you still get excited when earning it. Honestly the apocalypse could happen and i would not even notice if i were playing zen match. I have never felt less. I celebrate zen match and sing zen match, and what it assumes you shall assume, for every atom belonging to it as good belongs to you.Lubeking420Version: 1.1.4

Well, it was fun for a while.Not that I feel the developers will see or care, but… Okay, I get it, you create a game to make money. I don’t mind supporting that at all. I paid to have the ads removed. So far so good. I purchased coins and would purchase the bank as well on occasion. Again, fine. I enjoy the graphics. I didn’t suffer some of the crashes others experienced. The levels could be very hard at times but most were doable with maybe shuffling once, twice. Some levels required more. It was fine because the Fortune Path would increase every 3 levels and so by the time i got to level 12 on the Fortune Path, i was earning 120 coins. All was well until I finally made it to level 1000 and suddenly the Fortune Path is now going no higher than 20 COINS!! What the crap? The levels become more challenging and you answer that by decreasing rewards??? I’m shuffling 3 times a level sometimes, maybe more. My coins are dwindling fast. I’m at level 15 on the path and it hasn’t changed from 20 coins. Instead of increments of 20, 45, 90, 120, it’s 10, 15, and 20 only. I hope this is a glitch because honestly this is a huge dealbreaker. I don’t mind supporting the game, but don’t start screwing over people. I believe the payment to remove ads is yearly and I assure you, I’ve enjoyed the game so far but I will not subscribe to another year or throw another dime into this game if this is how it’s going to be. I will remove it. Frustrating. 5 stars for the graphics and entertainment- minus 2 for money hogging..HappyBookGirlVersion: 1.2.2

Keep me coming backFirst off, the word Marvelous is spelled wrong in your app. You might want to fix that. It’s disturbing to see it pop up at the end of a very hard level and see it spelled as “Marvellous”. Second, I too am frustrated at downloading apps based on the ad that then is NOTHING like the ad when you get to the game (I have seen other reviews mention this on this game and other games). I realize that you might have to get through a few levels in some games to get to the part where the game is like the ad that you saw that made you want to download it, but I have been working on this game for several months now and I’m on level 275 and still no where NEAR the ad that I followed to get this game. However, I am still enjoying the game even though I was completely misled into downloading it. No, I have not spent any money. If I can not complete a level without using the ridiculous amount of gold required for a redo or to get another chance, then I lose the life and wait for it to respawn. I’m not that impatient to play the game that I am going to spend money on it. That being said, I do wish lives did not take so long to refresh. It is the developers way of trying to get you to spend money. You only have 5 lives and the levels are incredibly hard to win without using any of the “help” that costs gold. I challenge myself to never use the gold so I’m constantly waiting for my lives to come back as it takes me forever to finish a level. If you offered more than 10 gold pieces to finish a level or even brought back the option to watch an ad to get 30 gold pieces, that would have bumped you up to 5 starts..Babs42Version: 1.1.3

I love this game I just want one thingI would really love if they would let me redesign the rooms I’ve done in the collection sections! I have a lot and sometimes I don’t have many blue things and they get higher in the amount you need per item at the level I’m at. HOWEVER I LOVE THIS GAME. I have made it to level 895. I don’t have money to spend on mobile games I spent 5 dollars when I first downloaded it and since the en just save coins when I’m on a winning streak. I see people saying they’re stuck and just quit, but I have been stuck for a few days and just took a break. Come back to it when it feels relaxing again. You’re not meant to play the game forever you’re supposed to chill and play and if you’re losing stop for a while. I wish the no ad’s wasn’t $6 I’d totally buy it if it was less or went on sale but I’ll just watch the ads at that point. It has helped when I’m feeling anxious and need a distraction sometimes. I wish I could design the rooms for less of the flowers it takes I wish it stayed at 2. It’s harder to beat levels this high and I really like the décor part of the game and I definitely have not been able to enjoy it as much as I would like to and was able to when I first played..Lovefarkle_1Version: 1.2.0

God created this gameIf i could give this game 100 stars you bet your zen match booty i would 😍. this game has brought me so much zen it is unreal, really brings out the zen in zen match. the design is beautiful and i love getting new tiles. there is almost nothing wrong with this game and i will continue to play it until my very last dying breath. i will give all my money to this app if you asked. i am definitely your number one player as i am close to beating all the current levels. send me zen match merch or put me on the pr list i will support you and advertise you till i’m dead. honestly anyone complaining about this app just honestly isn’t that good! simple as that! 5 lives is plenty and waiting really isn’t that bad sometimes. people just need to learn a simple kindergarten rearm known as patience 😍. please never change what you do or how you do it because you have me reeled in so far there’s no going back. i could write about you for days baby but i gotta get back to my level 😍. sponsor me you won’t regret it i swear. give me brand deal ❤️.Addy p 19Version: 1.1.9

Fun and all but . . .I love this game, and it is fun and relaxing, but I have a few problems. 1. The fact that it is nearly impossible to pass the hard levels. If you are anything like me, you will think “oh those people just aren’t trying” no really it’s hard. You need a gazillion coins to pass the levels. 2. The daily puzzle is how I get gold, but it means I have to watch a gazillion adds to get enough gold to fail a level again 🙄 3. Just today, I went in, got a few coins, 10 to be exact, cause that’s how much a shuffle cost, only to find out that the price on everything had been raised. Shuffles were now 15 coins, and redos 30. Yet it still only gives you 10 coins per level. If you wanna raise the prices, you have to raise the salary! 4. I want to play the thing where you clear the huge board, that doesn’t exist. In all, 3 stars, cause it’s fun and all, but I want those fixed. Actually, nvm, they lowered the prices, but still, it’s hard, and I forgot to mention the thing where you match mystery tiles. It gets as far as a shuffle and a redo, but then you have to pay for the chest, and I’m not allowed to spend money on games even if I wanted to, but if I don’t buy the chest, then I can’t get anything else, so please fix that.Asdfghjkl . . .Version: 1.2.5

Fun but irritatingWhen I have full lives and a lot of coins, this game is fun. But then I run out of lives and realize I need to wait a whole 30 minutes just to get one life. And then I finally get one life, and attempt the level, only to realize that the way the tiles are organized it’s almost impossible to beat the level, so I try one of the tools on the bottom of the screen. Each of these costs more coins than what you get for completing a level. So most of the time, you don’t have enough coins to use a tool and just constantly use your lives to try to complete a level that you basically can’t finish. And all of the things they have for you to do where you can “win” extra tools require you to pay to get good enough tools to actually help you. They just want money, past a certain level this game is just irritating and not any fun. Many times I have completed enough levels to win a chest, and I see that the line showing my progress is filled all the way to the chest…and then it proceeds to not let me open the chest. Another time it told me I had earned unlimited lives for 15 minutes, I finally filled up the bar and then again, it proceeds to not give me the 15 minutes of unlimited lives. Overall fun until you reach a little over the 100th level..Taegan MaeVersion: 1.2.4

Best match game!EDIT: once you hit level 400 it is impossible to play without constantly buying extra lives. I understand making the levels more challenging, but it sometimes feels like random levels that aren’t even labeled as hard/super hard are actually impossible. I’m not convinced that they don’t randomly generate un-playable levels just for you to lose lives and then spend money on more. I had a feeling there would be a catch, the game seemed too good to be true. ORIGINAL REVIEW: This is such a good game. The matching is just challenging enough where it feels like an accomplishment but isn’t impossible. It doesn’t get harder with each level, sometimes it’s easier and sometimes it’s difficult which I enjoy. I love love love that there are no ads! And I don’t feel the need to spend money, although it is an option if you want. The only thing I find annoying is after each Completed level the animated pop ups showing your points and rewards can be really slow. I love the game so much I just want to keep going! It would be nice to be able to tap through the animations as an option for those of us who are impatient 😅 I finally found a game that I think I’ll be playing for a long time!.@lucia99Version: 220000.1.233

Good game with some issuesThe gameplay is very enjoyable and satisfying although pretty luck-based, and there are no ads (I got an ad when i first downloaded the game and never got one again). I also like how you can design rooms and stuff as a side quest. However a few problems cause me to rate it 4 stars instead of 5. First of all, there are so many annoying pop ups when you go to the home screen. A pop up for this event, a pop up for the gold chest thingy, a pop up for the trophy thingy. These pop ups show up every time you go to the home screen which is sooo annoying. Also, when you finish a level and go to the home screen, you have to watch animations for coins, gold thingies and lotus thingies before being able to play the next level which takes really long and I would rather be able to immediately click on the button to play the next level. The game is also very laggy at times, causing my whole phone to lag. When this happens it causes my phone to heat up alot and use alot of battery. Once i stop playing zen match, my phone stops lagging after a bit. It’s not always laggy but sometimes its so laggy it’s unplayable. No other game on my phone lags this bad. Even my sister who has a new and non laggy phone says that zen match is laggy and badly optimised. Another thing, I don’t like how you cant resume a level. If your in the middle of a level and have to stop playing and come back after a while, you cant resume the level and you lose a life. This isnt that annoying because levels arent that long but still. Finally, I dont like how when you click give up it gives you a million pop ups trying to convince you to continue using 60 coins, but when you click continue, you are able to continue without any confirmation. One time I accidentally pressed continue, wasting 60 coins, so I would really like it if it asked “are you sure” for continuing..FlowfoVersion: 220000.1.56

Was good while it lasted.Well, I don’t wanna be like I would give this zero stars if i could lol. Honestly it’s a great game and I’m not gonna lie about it. I tried others similar to this and i don’t know why I keep liking this. I am also very proud to say I played this game and never spent a single cent on it. Now I’m at level 1034. But it’s sad that I have to delete it for now and hope i download it again and some things change. I like the game being hard but u guys be doing too much. The wait time for a heart is crazy (30 mins bruhhhh) which is my main issue. Cuz they just get used up in one level and u can’t even win. Then the cycle continues for days probably even months. The coins for the thingies that help you are also quite high but I kinda survived with that by saving my coins. Please don’t tell me go to our website for tricks cuz u guys say the same thing which I believe everyone already does(technically like a beginner guide to playing the game). I doubt I’ve ever written a review on a game but like I said, maybe in the next months or years to come, I might download it and login again. That is if it doesn’t reset. If it does then I want to thank u developers for this game and keeping me busy..Mmm 🙏🏻Version: 220000.1.238

Great Game- Stop pop upsHi, this game is great and I am on level 197 but mainly play for the daily challenges and puzzles. However, while I have been playing this game and seeing it change over several updates, the pop-ups have gotten out of hand. Although the game has almost become easier to the point where it is helpful the pop-ups have not. Meaning that whenever you click on the game to enter it, there are several pop-ups from the game festivities going on during that time. The pop-ups, you can normally leave out of however they have gotten out of hand. Every pop-up has another one directly following it, and sometimes there are up to eight of them after one another. On the other hand, I do truly love this game. It has great graphics and has continued to update itself to have new tiles every time I go onto it. I like the overall idea and theme as you are building a house throughout the game and have continued to love to see it be updated. However, the pop-ups have made this update not as useful as the pop-ups are becoming overwhelming. I hope this can be fixed and the continued game can grow..Arcade reviewer 101Version: 220000.1.591

Great game, but needs some tweaksThis game starts as all puzzle games do—way too easy. But it does start to get harder, and by level 150 or so, it can take days to get past a level, and that will go for a few levels before they become easier again. My biggest complaints are two: 1) The daily games require an internet connection, especially for previous days, so they can show an ad about every other game. Trouble is, the daily games are timed, and the ad time counts toward total time for that game, which sometimes makes the games almost impossible (especially those that I finish with seconds to spare). The timer should not start until the last piece is in place. That’s just basic logic and fairness to the players. I lost 2 lives playing two previous days because I ran out of time thanks to the ads, but won the games the second try when there wasn’t an ad. 2) There is no way to contact support. The Support button takes you to an FAQ with no obvious “if you can’t find the answer, click here” link. Which is why I’m writing here, hoping some developer would see it..Castelluzzo99Version: 1.2.4

Cash Cow GameI actually enjoy playing this game. However, I got caught up in purchasing the coins. It takes 30 minutes for the game to give a new life and is full at 5 lives (so 2.5 hours to have all the lives restored for free). If you are into the game, you have to pay for coins to continue. It takes 200 coins to replenish. Second money dump, if you get stuck in the game and want to scramble the towels or any of the other two ways of extending the life to continue playing will cost. Now, there are free ways to get these bonuses but they are few and far in between and are teasers to pay for them. I have been stuck at level 145 for a really long time. I think I advanced to this level only because I had been paying for these coins to continue the play so I could advance. Now at level 145, I decided just to pay for coins. I wanted to see how difficult it would be and how long it would take for me to advance. I have not been able to move to level 146. I REFUSE to give it another dollar now that the game is set up to take advantage of its consumers. As long as you pay, great. When you don’t pay, you can play but you won’t move. Cash Cow. Beware..Queen-PROVersion: 1.1.5

Saved my life.Before I began to play zen match, my life felt meaningless and I had no inner peace. Ever since I started playing this game, I have found it easier to continue with my tedious unhappy life (most days). Once I passed level 3476, both men AND women started to find me lovable, funny, and best of all zen. I cannot thank the developers enough for this game. After roughly 4 years of playing it helped me find my wife and we now have an 8 month old together. I truly cannot think of a world without zen match. If I go even 3 hours without zen match, I will go into a primal fit of rage. But when I’m banging on my chest out of anger, I am able to calm down just by think about zen match. As a 42 year old man, I never thought anything could bring such joy to me until zen match found me. however One downside of the game is that it does tend to make me purchase more lives. As of now I have spent nearly 10k on this game. I also wish there were more naked women. Still a great game 100% recommend..Nick sleptsovVersion: 220000.1.81

Needs Some WorkI really liked this game when I started it and even paid to remove the ads. There are several things about it that have driven me away. First of all, you can’t purchase coins at a reasonable price. When I first started there were reasonably priced packages available. Now, the cheapest I can purchase is $7.99. I find it strange that price of the packages go up as you progress in the game. Another thing I really dislike about it is that there’s a short game before each level that, as far as I can tell, is pointless. Also, there are no daily prizes or any incentives really to keep you coming back. There is a daily game, but it’s almost impossible to win. I feel like this game is designed to hook you at first and get you to spend a bit of money, then move on. Some have also mentioned the lives - it takes 30 minutes to regenerate one life! To continue without losing a life, it takes 60 coins. To put this in perspective, the cheapest package is around 360 coins for $7.99. That’s just too much money! Too bad, because if it were reasonably priced, I’d keep playing. I really liked it, but I can’t blow that much money on a game..Cdb960861Version: 1.1.4

Good…This is a decent game but it must be the same developers that made Travel Town Merge because the avatars are the same & now I’ve reached the point in the game where I can collect cards and the cards are identical to the winter cards in Travel Town from Christmas 2023. I distinctly remember that particular album cuz it’s the only one I ever completed playing Travel Town! And there’s even the same side games like the little towns you can set up with tokens. And outrageously priced packages that come with very little coins & boosters you can purchase. It’s like this game gets the leftovers from Travel Town. And not even recent leftovers, years ago stuff. Maybe they thought no one would notice but I did. It’s a good game but some of the levels are nearly impossible to pass without spending money or in game coins. As with any game. And this is not one of those games where it’s ever a cheap package to buy. It’s ALWAYS expensive!! The boosters you can use cost a lot of coins to use! So be prepared to spend money to play! But if you’re looking for a game to just pass the time, it’s a good one..Lil Toni 84Version: 220000.1.471

Fun game!I downloaded this game quite a few months ago because I saw the ads. When I first started to play I didn’t even know the daily games were a thing so I only played normal levels. Obviously they slowly got harder and harder as expected. But, it got to the point when they were so hard it look me weeks to pass one level. Maybe some of you do, but I don’t have that kind of patience. I started doing the daily games and I love them! They are timed but most of the time I can get them in one try. Now I only do the daily games and never the levels just because I don’t want to keep doing the same one. If you like a challenge maybe the levels are for you! They are definitely not for me.😂 One other thing is that my phone is pretty slow but I’ve found that this game crashes regularly. If you have a newer phone with more space you may not have that problem. I’m getting a new phone soon so I’ll see if it’s better. But ya! Overall, I love the daily games but the levels are ridiculously hard. I would recommend to try it out and see what you think!.ZGDfounder12Version: 1.3.2

So it’s good but a few bugsI like the game but a few bugs and quite a bit of advertisements. So one bug that I noticed that when you go to do the daily puzzles I was wondering why I had such little time or what felt like I would have more time to complete the same daily puzzle but it seems as though when you have to watch an ad to play the daily puzzle it has the timer for the level going in the background while the ad is playing making it near impossible to complete some of the rounds if you only have a minute to finish it without an ad and with lives taking what feels like forever to fill up and only able to bank 5 at a time it’s discouraging. Another thing that’s a bit frustrating is when you can complete a level at the skin of your teeth like the last tiles popped and there is still one second left and it still says you failed the round. I think a time adjustment would be nice as well as fixing the ad taking up the time on the daily puzzles is a huge priority. Overall it’s a nice game that’s challenging in the higher levels..Consumer10908015Version: 1.2.2

Fantastic game, literally no problems !!✨I LOVE this game so much !! It’s so relaxing to play when I’m worried or nervous or just can’t sleep. I love to play it when I’m bored, or in my free time. I LOVE the lack of ads !! It has a reasonable amount of ads which is admirable too. I also love how you get to decorate and color rooms along with the satisfaction of matching the tiles. Such a fun and satisfying idea. ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS GAME!! I definitely recommend it !! I’m so glad I downloaded it! I wasn’t sure if it was going to be like the ads for it but it was and it was even BETTER than the ads! Love the whole idea and everything !! I also absolutely LOVE how it doesn’t need internet !! So I am able to play it when I have no internet including on a plane, in the middle of nowhere on a car trip, or just in general to help not use data or hope you the internet bill !! This game is great, really helps me. Hope others feel the same way !! Thanks to the developers for creating such a lovely and calming game. Best regards !! ☺️💕❤️.TailyanaVersion: 1.3.1

Fun and cheap …if you’re smart about itI’m on level 300-something I’ve only paid $6 to shut off ads. If you lose a life it takes 30 minutes to get it back. I like this feature Bc I either do well and get longer game play or I do poorly and it forces me to put my phone down and be more productive. I like it in the morning specifically or before an exam Bc it calms me down while helping me helps me clear my mind and think strategically, wards off that groggy feeling. It does seem like some puzzles are impossible. My favorite part of the app is the daily time based puzzles however there are a few w the time set to 1 minute and there’s absolutely no possible way to clear the amount of tiles given in a minute. Those ones feel like coin traps. Also another complaint is if you’ve been saving coins you’ll only receive 20 coins when you reach your level bonus. However if I have no coins i receive 100 at level bonuses. I understand why they do it but I feel like some bits are a little scammy hence the 4 stars instead of 5..EkaMarie94Version: 1.1.7

Great Game, But…This is one of my favorite games, but, my game data inexplicably advanced (and disappeared). One day, I was well below the hundredth level, had only decorated 3 rooms, and had over 200 points to purchase room decorations. The very next day, the game had advanced to over level 570, 53 rooms were decorated, and I had less than 20 points for room purchases. I gained well over 400 levels and lost resources that I didn’t use in a 24 hour timespan. It would have been nice to advance through the levels on my own and to have decorated the 50 rooms with pieces of my choice. I have put in multiple requests for the game to be uninstalled so that I may reinstall it and start from the beginning. It’s been well over a month, and nothing has changed. I still play the game, but will not invest more money to purchase upgrades. Also, beware using (or paying) for the tools that allow you to scramble the tiles. When you scramble the tiles it is mostly to your disadvantage and to encourage you to use more resources so that you end up buying resources just to get through a level..Designer1313Version: 1.5.1

Fun game, but…I have a few things that I absolutely cannot stand about this game. First, It’s super fun and addicting, BUT everything is so expensive. $6 to take away ads? Absurd. $4 to open a chest? Ridiculous. Another thing, the timer on the daily puzzles starts before the tiles are even laid out completely, which I think is super unfair because some of those levels are pretty hard. It also glitches and freezes when you try to beat it too quickly. I messed up and ran out of room with 25 seconds left on one of them, went to the screen where I bought enough coins to continue the level, only to go back to the level and it said I ran out of time while I was in that screen PAYING FOR THINGS and wanted me to use even MORE coins to continue playing. I almost deleted it after that but chose to stick with it a little while longer. I do wish they would add a “start” button on the timed levels so it’s fair, rethink prices on things like ad removal, and fix the glitch (if it is one) about time running out after it asks you to buy coins to continue the level..BanhartmanVersion: 1.3.0

Too Hard (Impossible without Powerups)The game is fun until level 100, after that it’s impossible to pass without using (paying for) powerups. Daily puzzles are also too hard and there’s not enough time to finish. please add difficulty settings and this game would be great..RayY13fbgtVersion: 1.2.2

It’s an alright game…Aside from the fact it’s quite money hungry. After each puzzle you do, it will throw 3-5 different ads ‘events’ for reasons to spend your money. And they are quite expensive. The ‘safe’ thing is like 4 dollars for a few hundred coins, and the many ‘special’ events are an easy 6-20 dollars. My advice, don’t. The levels can be tricky to get around through, and a bit frustrating. The daily puzzles are challenging and timed, I tend to avoid them. Each level gives you little lotus tickets to decorate the background, and if you complete them, you get another to doll up..HelladeenVersion: 220000.1.195

Zen Match - Relaxing Puzzle Negative Reviews

Fun at start, but impossible at higher levelsTL/DR: Game is fun at lower levels, but the upper ones are in winnable and a waste of time playing. Lazy programming with too many tiles so matching 3 on some tries is impossible in the first moves. Find a game where success is at least possible without help. This game was fun for about the first 2000 levels. At the beginning, it is fairly easy but builds quickly. Then at somewhere between level 2000 to 2109, the puzzles are impossible. There is no combination of times you can choose that will allow to win unless you use one or more bonus “cheat” tiles. It just gets frustrating to go through 5 tries at a level in less than 10 minutes only to have to wait 2.5 hours to try again. Also, the amount to play on goes up from 60 to 90 coins which makes it even harder to keep playing. It’s to the point where it’s not worth the time and ads to play anymore. In addition, the ads for this game are misleading in that the puzzle they show in the ad is never available. The “tournament” and other “competitions” in the game are jokes because they have a time limit, but it takes days of play to get through one level let alone the multiple needed to succeed at the tournament. Too many extras that are just not needed. Make the upper levels challenging but winnable with out needing to use a scramble or the extra tile spaces rather than being lazy at putting random tiles of too many varieties in the puzzle..Kitty Kat Gamer 13Version: 1.2.6

Not a fair game.A really fun game at first. Can’t remember what level I deleted the game on but way over the 100th level. At first I enjoyed playing the game I didn’t make any app purchases at first. I simply waited until the live refilled which would take up to 30 minutes a life. I didn’t want to purchase to remove ads so I would exit app refresh and enter game again so I didn’t have to watch the ads. I noticed that once I completed this move the app would remove one of my life’s. I ignored it however I began to purchase coins for life’s. You need 400 coins to replenish 5 life’s. That’s an absurd amount noting the cheapest bundles only gives you about 175 or 200 coins. Once I started making purchases I noticed that the game became more difficult and with out the advantage of the help at bottom of screen shuffle 10 coins, back move 20 coins and remove 3 cards 60 coins, which you have to pay for in coins. This is expensive in coins. So I decided not to spend money on coins anymore which made it more difficult to pass levels. I had my final straw at losing a game and going to the are you sure you want to give up picture on your screen and seeing I had 15 seconds until my next life. So I exit that game just to get to the Home Screen and the app took my only life after the clock ended in 5 seconds. I don’t know if it was a glitch but I’m done. I deleted the app this game is not fun once you start making money purchases. It’s money trap..Gamer4lyfe21Version: 1.1.8

IrritatingI’m gonna be honest, this game is actually enjoyable and addicting-half the time. There are many, many flaws. There was another review that hit almost all the nails but missed a few. Firstly, the game is loaded with ads, which you have an option to pay $5.99 to get rid of for 6 months, not even permanently. Then with the coins; everything is dependent on coins. You want to go back a step? 20 coins. You want to keep playing a game you lost? 60 coins the first time, 90 coins the second, and so on. You only get 10 coins per game, and there’s an option to watch an ad to get an additional 20 coins, which eventually goes away after a certain level, I believe level 100. Then with the lives, and this is the flaw that irritates me the most: you have 5 lives when you start the game. If you want to start a level you automatically lose a life. Then if you lose that level you can either pay 60 coins and take a chance at losing the level again, or you can lose a life. It’s very easy to lose all your lives within the span of 1 hr (that’s how long it takes for them to refill to 5) because the game is randomly generated, so there are some levels that are simply impossible to beat. If the creators got rid of the lives concept this game would be 100% better. Also, theres an option to refill your lives with 200 coins before the 1 hr is up; that means 20 levels worth of coins would be washed down the drain simply because the levels were unsolvable. Just make the game better by tenfold by removing the stupid lives. Or make it so you can watch an ad to refill them, and bring back the 20 extra coin ad option!.Merber666Version: 1.1.3

Still has potentialThis game is very fun and easy to get hooked on at first. But like many of the other reviews have said, you will eventually reach an impossibly-designed level where you can either take a chance and run through your five lives, or you’ll have to pay for extra coins. I don’t even mind taking the risk, but it does take an unusually long time for lives in this game to replenish, and it doesn’t offer any way to earn extra lives aside from mKing a purchase. Most other games have shorter replenish periods AND offer you the chance to watch ads to get more lives; I don’t get why this one doesn’t. As far as the coins go, I agree with others who think it is clear they want you to spend money. They’ve added several new ways to get boosts and extra coins since I started playing but each is a dead-end for those of us on higher levels. For example, you can now earn coins for decorating a room. Cool! Except A.) we can’t retroactively get all the coins we would have earned from rooms we already decorated, and B.) you have to spend lotuses to decorate each element of the room, but you only earn lotuses when you beat a level. So you start running out of lotuses trying to get more coins to beat an impossible level, then you run out of coins too because the level is impossible. It’s just too difficult for no reason after a point..Jay eye eeeVersion: 1.3.0

This is not a strategy gameAt first, this seems like a strategy game. You try to match up three tiles by uncovering certain tiles before other certain tiles. There’s a strategy to uncovering the correct tiles first and leaving others for later. I like that kind of strategy and working-things-out type of game. But very quickly, this game becomes a “luck” game. They start stacking the tiles in odd ways. You think that you’re going to uncover one tile that you need, but when you click on the tile on top of the one you need, you soon find out that there are three other tiles stacked on top of the tile you thought you could get to easily. That just stinks. Then there are the stacks of tiles at the bottom that you have to uncover. That’s all luck. If you click on the wrong tile and what you need is not underneath it, and there’s nothing to match in the mess up above, you’re out of luck. So I was hoping this was an all strategy game, and it really isn’t. I’m stuck at level 114 because I have no luck! It was fun for a while but it’s really lost its shine to me. Also, how about awarding more than just 10 coins for passing a level? I spent 140 coins just to get past a level and then I earn 10?! The rewards are way off. They aren’t enough to give me the incentive to keep working on this. And for being a Zen game, it gets pretty frustrating pretty fast. Oh well..Mr.PibbVersion: 1.2.3

Worst Customer Service and Tech Support!!This game is not relaxing! It offers promotions, such as referring a friend, but then does not honor the reward. When I first started the game, I referred four friends,. The reward didn’t load. I emailed customer service and they did not want to give me the hundred coins I earned per new player. They grudgingly said that they would offer me 300 coins as a courtesy. What courtesy? I recruited four new players to your stupid game! I was dumb enough to try it again, referred another four players, and two of them signed up to play. I told the friend that Zen Match has a practice of cheating its players out of finders bonuses, so to please let me know when they load the game and start playing. Once confirmed with them, I asked for my bonus, and once again Zen Match, denied me. They said that “tech support” (in quote marks because it’s clearly a joke) doesn’t show me referring anyone to the game using my link. I sent back proof, both the invitation screenshots and screenshots of players at level 30 and level 100 of the game, respectively. They are not responding to my emails. I’ve emailed six or seven times with proof, no response. They are cheaters with hideous customer service who do not honor their agreements. This is not relaxing! What it is is pathetic. 100 coins is barely enough to get through a level, but at this point: it’s on! I want what I earned. Don’t spend your time recruiting new players!.JestjewelsVersion: 1.5.1

It’s a no from meI’ve been playing for a week, at level 317, have “created” 18 completed rooms which is your reward for playing. I’ve spent probably $40 on game play ‘coin’ in order to complete a level so I am allowed to add one more color to my ‘room’. But I’ve just deleted the game. Great concept, really enjoy the more meditative experience of gameplay, but the quantity of ads is simply too much - basically a 10-30 second ad every time you transition from one screen to the next: finish one game and want to go to the Home Screen? Ad. On the Home Screen and want to go update your ‘room’? Ad. Going back into game play? Ad. $5.99 to remove ads which I would be willing to do if the game wasn’t such a blatant pay-to-play setup. There are levels you simply cannot beat unless you use game coins - don’t get me started on the timed challenges of the daily games - some are just impossible without use of MANY game coins. I spend a lot of time and money on app games and this one just isn’t designed well enough to hit the sweet spot of ‘challenging but doable’ and I’m not interested in supporting a developer who clearly just wants to grab ad dollars and make players spend money to play with any real ease or enjoyment. Want to entertain your kids for a minute? This could work - but for anyone with an attention span, I believe this will just be a frustration..Oregon503Version: 1.0.8

Certain boards cannot be beat.I have played this game once and for some reason it locked up so this is my next time through. The game is overall great but some of these puzzles just cannot be beat without the cheat tools like the ‘shuffle’ for 10 coins or the ‘hold 3 cards’ in the alternate queue. Several times I have got locked in a puzzle and my cards are just not shown anywhere on the game board. The example I am quoting is level 229 and there are only 5 sets to finish the game. I have 2 suns, and 2 violets on my board and 2 other singles. All of the matches for the rest of the game are visible except for the sun and the violet. There is NOWHERE Left to hide the ones I need but still, I shuffle, nope, shuffle, nope, shuffle after 10 shuffles still no sign of either of my cards. That is just impossible but also, there is nowhere to hide them????? All the cards on the board are visible unless you stacked directly on top of the bottom, but the remaining matches make that a statistical impossibility…. I will not be spending and more money on the game as it is just a little too dumb sometime as far a a fair and fun gameplay. I like a challenge but there are still bugs to the game play and that ruins it for me. Long time player and I have had enough. If you like the game, it’s well done, but soon enough you will see it is not working correctly and it drains your coins to force you to buy more..ShabbadoooVersion: 1.2.2

New game prices ruined game, unhappy loyal customerI’ve been playing zen match for like 2 years. it’s the only game i’ve EVER spent money on. this is also the first app ive EVER left a review on. so this is clearly important to me 😂 i never had much to complain about until recent updates the new graphics look cheap i like the new look now but i’m missing some of the original look of the app. also the power ups offered during your matches at the bottom have now changed, specifically the mix button being changed to 20 coins instead of 10. the new updates with the coins and their prices have made the game honestly frustrating and not as fun anymore :/ i blow through my coins more now and spending less time on the game. i know it’s probably a trick to get me to spend more money but i promise you it’s not working on this loyal gamer/customer with this app 😂 if i’m not enjoying the game i won’t spend money or time on it 🤷🏻‍♀️ if changes continue to make the app more difficult or i see that the app developers care more about the money they can make vs the quality of their game then i’ll just leave. there’s plenty of other apps like zen match that also want my money too. plus i wouldn’t mind a game that doesn’t reuse levels like zen match does, y’all ain’t slick on reusing levels 😭.WasicudemonVersion: 220000.1.181

Used to be great - Latest update killed it for me (after 2500 levels)I had a good time playing all the way to level 2571 (Zen Masters a few times too) and found it satisfying and enjoyable. Originally there was a good balance between sophistication of play/challenge and the ability to move up the levels with minimal investment. Some reviewers indicate that as you get closer to the second thousand levels the degree of difficulty outpace your ability to enjoy playing to the degree that many of the goals are next to impossible without spending pretty serious money on buying coins for cheats/assists. But it kind of levels off around 2,000 and I was feeling ok about the amount of money I was spending until this recent update when coin inflation went into turbo drive. Every thing increased by at least a factor of ten in “cost” except for the ways you used to have to earn coins for free by playing well over multiple levels. They give you 2500 coins for “free” with this update but that goes pretty fast with the new prices and the old ways to earn were left pretty much the same so your only choice is to spend real money — and lots of it to keep playing. Time to bail IMHO. Back to Two Dots for me. They get their $$ out of me too but they are fair and keep it to a consistent level..Tazz314159Version: 220000.1.340

Fun but hard to recommendI have been enjoying this game, but I can’t really recommend it for three reasons: broken ads, overpriced store, & zero updates. BROKEN ADS: There are a lot of ad breaks, but this is expected. However, the ad server they use is broken. Half the time the ads either freeze up or get stuck in a loop, requiring a hard close to get out of them. This is made worse by the game deciding that this counts as losing a life. So you get penalized for the broken ads. OVERPRICED STORE: The cheapest & lowest amount coin pack (375 coins) is $8 USD. Given that this game does the usual free-to-play thing of trying to get you to buy stuff to continue, but the prices are too high. It’s a really blatant cash grab even for a mobile game. ZERO UPDATES: Finally, there have been no updates to this game aside from “here’s a new room”, which is the least needed update. There are inactive power-ups supposedly for a future update that is probably never going to happen that greet you every time you start a level. And of course, there are the broken ads that should be patched. In short, it’s broken, greedy, & neglected. The play itself is fun, but this isn’t the best way to experience it. Find whatever game from a reputable publisher this is copying and play that instead..MelanieSNVersion: 1.3.4

Rewards Just Aren’t Worth My Time!I liked the art of the tiles to match and enjoyed working out the puzzles, for a while. I actually spent real money to get the boosters that let you pass the hard levels, but all they did was take my money without giving me the boosters I paid for. So you beat the levels and get the tokens to decorate your zen room, but unless your favorite colors are all shades of brown, not much from which to choose. Occasionally there’s a dull blue or green, yippie. (Why the tiles have such pretty colors and the rooms have such ugly ones I’ll never understand . . . ) Then make your selections from those boring browns, spend the tokens, and surprise! Next time you log on, your changes are gone, you’re back where you were, however all the tokens spent are still gone and you have to earn them back again. Oh, by the way, lets say you click the support button for help, right? You get your choice of various articles available to read, none of which have anything to do with the problem. So you’re told to contact them for more help. Guess what? There’s no way to do it on site. I spent over an hour traveling down every rat hole, still nothing. Bet that really cuts down on wasted customer service time if customers can’t find you to complain. Congratulations, I’ll be deleting the game soon..Nthusiastic1Version: 1.1.7

Not so Zen!At first the game was great! Then the advertising started! After I paid $4.99 a month for more lives etc and $2.99 for the gold pack which gives you a very small amount of coins, the game became impossible to find matches! If you pay more, that’s the only way but my God, way too expensive! If you want no ads it’s another $5.99! The adds make you want to throw your phone as the are constant! It’s the same ads over and over. Not so Zen after all!! So I’ve had enough. This is an update. I liked the game as I could play while I had no internet connection. When the ads started I was unable to clear the screen. I’d hit the x button and it would only take me to a screen for the app but it would not close saying no internet. I kept having to restart the game. I’d lose a life, again. It happens all the time. I found I was overly frustrated with this zen game. I found I would get Mad over silly things after playing. Sorry after losing over and over. There is no purpose to this game any longer. It is a fail, try again to pure madness of a waste of time. It’s time for the game to go. Nothing worse than a game to calm you but you just want to throw the phone in a wall because it’s impossible to play. I’ve paid for the monthly one time and additional lives. But no more. What a waste of a good game..BluezartVersion: 1.3.0

Not at all like they advertisedBeen playing for 4 days. This was a fun game at lower levels like most games. I’ve reached 139 and it’s impossible unless I add money to get coins. No way to add coins unless you buy them and at first they are easy to get when you complete a level, now it’s to hard to finish a level unless you got plenty of money to put into the game. I myself like free game apps, where you can earn what you need to play them. I played all day and never went up a level. The short game before the main game is not needed and don’t know why they put that in there. I finished the a few cute rooms but yet to figure out why I decorate them I get nothing for doing them. Two small match games every 10 hours let’s you win 1 mistake move and 1 switch all the tiles move, third of course wants to to add money. NOT at all anything like they advertise, maybe that’s at some ungodly level you will never be able to get too. Note that you don’t have to loss a life by when you see there is no possible way to win the level, log out of the game and reload and life is not lost.. thing is you can’t win!! Buying coins daily gets expensive. It cost $60 to keep playing, 20 to put tiles back, 10 to switch them around. Coins go super fast in playing this game :( not worth it, will be deleting it. Good luck!.Jazzy60$Version: 1.1.5

Don’t get invested!I really enjoyed this game until about level 170. At this point, like many other games with the same format of passing levels to accomplish a goal (word villas, project make over, etc.), it becomes impossible to pass levels without many power ups which require some kind of coins which cost real money to obtain (for the most part). They do not have any kind of daily rewards that are given. They have competitions where you can win stuff, but this requires passing levels which brings you back to needing coins and having to spend money. I have been stuck on level 178 for 4 days now and have used roughly 30 or so lives. I had coins and power ups in the beginning but used them all on this level and do not want to spend anymore money on the game to get more. Especially after having paid to remove ads which was $6.99 (higher than I’ve seen for any other game). Heck, I could buy more or less the same game on pc for that price and that would be the FULL game. I’m not sure why you can’t just buy phone games this way. I understand they are often being updated, but many games that you buy full version of still update as well, hints expansion packs. Phone games truly are money traps. I really need to stop hoping differently and finding myself disappointed..Cmd823Version: 1.2.1

Was fun, but then got bad.Game was fun! Even got challenging (the good kind, keeping the mind sharp) after a about 20 levels. But then it went from being a fun slightly challenging game, to being near impossible. Bad model. You want people to buy coins, yes i get it. But making the game frustrating to use makes you lose players! I get you wanting people to spend coins to get more lives, therefore them having to buy the coins. But having to wait HOURS for 5 lives, on impossible levels, is definitely grounds for deleting. People dont want to be overly frustrated trying to play a good game, we understand you have to make money. The ads arent even a problem, its just not enjoyable to play. If youre going to make us wait hours for 5 lives, the least you can do is give us 10 lives and make levels after 100+ be NOT impossible. Ive been stuck on 272 (this isnt the first time im experiencing this) for days because i can never seem to get any card matches. I even spend the coins to continue on, and still matches are so spread apart its impossible! Please fix your app or i predict you will become one of the great games that unfortunately bite the dust and have to run an unskippable ad every round because you dont get the downloads you once did..SnnsdvvebebdbeVersion: 1.0.8

Where did the option for extra coins go?New issue: I’m up to level 6000 but the ability to get 20 extra coins by watching ads has disappeared just as I started to buy coins. Almost like there’s an algorithm that deletes the option once someone starts buying coins. Disappearing option, bye. I’ve deleted the game. Changing my rating to one star. Now when plating for extra coins, out of twenty plays the timer only engaged on 17 of them so I was cheated out of the extra 20 coins for the total of 30 coins each time. Normally I would say that your programmers are just terrible and keep forgetting to activate the timer on the majority of the ads; however, since you have so much feedback on that here it’s obvious that you are doing it on purpose. You’re just cheating us out of both the coins we’ve earned and the time we’ve spent watching the ads. Homescapes - I will never download your app. I am tired of seeing your ad and never getting the coins I earned. I know that isn’t your fault, but this games, but you will forever be associated with these scammers. Previous review: Great, relaxing, yet challenging game. The issue I have with it is when I select 3x my 10 winning points and watch the ad, it is increasingly defective and doesn’t provide a timer. Eventually a hollow little box might show up on the upper right hand corner do I can escape. This means that all the time I just spent watching the ad was wasted since It still only get 10 points instead of 30. They fixed the biblical ad, please fix the others. You need to have better quality control or I’ll move on to a different game. If you don’t want to be frustrated by being cheated either don’t go to the 3x or ignore this game..Jdbp0110Version: 1.1.1

Fun but…I enjoy it, but it seems the higher I go, the more impossible the levels are. I’m on level 549 and I have been trying to beat it for days. It doesn’t help that each time I try again, the tiles have completely randomized so I can’t even use a strategy to try and win it but instead it’s chance all over again. I also wish there was a “watch an ad” feature to earn a life. 25 minutes for one life is insane. I do wish to play endlessly and get my zen on but I can’t do that when it takes 5 lives to one level. I also earned all of the rooms and stopped earning blue things which is fine but if the game updates and has more levels, I could have earned A LOT of blue things if I would have just waited for the update. If it wasn’t for that I am still unlocking backgrounds, I’d have deleted it. I also wish I could use my coins on other things like lives. And if not, to at least earn coins more quickly… or to earn more coins per level but keep the helpers the same price. They’re costly, and for no reason. Having a “watch an ad” feature for these would also be great, especially for the helper that costs 60 coins. Overall, it’s a good game, but the cons have me wanting to delete it more every day..Mel4evVersion: 1.0.6

Was loving itDear Zen Match. I had been greatly enjoying your game until I reached level 323 “Through My Window”. Raising the amount of games needed to “decorate” each item to 5 each, and doubling the number of items to color per room, seems likely a petty money grab. Not only that, but for some reason, I now have to play around 50 games to win one. You say that each game is winnable without boosters, but it is not true. I downloaded your game to be played offline because I am extremely poor. I cannot afford to buy my “gold” or extra lives, so I must play with the 30 coins I can win for free, and do so at only 5 lives at a time. I used to really enjoy the peaceful music, humming it to myself even when not playing. Now, I have to mute the game because the music is a reminder of the futility and frustration that has replaced my enjoyment. I used to play your game for many hours a day. Now, I play for about 5 minutes a day, as that is how long it takes to use up all 5 lives. I am so disappointed. Is there a way you might correct these issues, so that your lovely game can return to its former Zen pleasantness? I’m sure I can’t be the only one who is experiencing this same disappointment. Thank you..Calswife37Version: 1.3.9

Ended up deletingI think I progressed too far in the game. I was doing the puzzles for the sake of the puzzles and got to the point where there was no more “coloring scenes” to change. I still had plenty of blue flowers (though, I stopped earning those per level too) for when future scenes came out so I kept going just focused on the matching gameplay. I kept running out of coins which the game kept offering me in exchange for actual money (which I did once). I needed the coins because the levels were more challenging at this point. I waited until I passed the level by sheer luck and watched the ad to triple my sparse 10 coins earned to 30. The button wouldn’t always work but I figured it was my phone being weird. Except now the button is gone. If I can’t get coins efficiently without regularly spending money, I’m not going to continue playing. I just beat the game and now I’m done. 🤷🏾‍♀️ It gets two stars for the actual gameplay. It was challenging at times but not terrible until I passed the “expected threshold”. I do think if coins are spent for at most 60 for the most expensive assist, the award should be 20 or the multiplyer should be 6. Some of the harder puzzles use at least 2 of these..Dejon07Version: 1.1.1

Not bad could be a better experience. Too much ads omgThe main complaint is you can play like 10 to maybe 20 levels then after EACH LEVEL YOU GET A AD. Idc if that’s how they make money if you make it to where the gameplay stalls and you have to constantly watch ads just to play one level at at time they probably just made the game for money. I like designing the rooms but I barely can do that if I’m watching ads most the time I’m on the app that’s ridiculous. You could easily make it to where you watch ads to get rewards and the app wouldn’t suffer. Then they randomly raised the prices of everything to where you earned 10 coins still but the abilities costed more. They went back to regular prices but that was definitely the moment I almost uninstalled. What’s worse about the ads is if the app crashes you lose a life. Waiting 2.5 hours for your 5 lives to refill is ridiculous and it costs a lot to refill the lives with coins so that’s also pretty scummy. They choose to go with scummy tactics a lot of mobile games do yo make money instead of making their game playable. The game has potential but I can tell they just want to make money off the game and not make a good game.Hoodie_bronVersion: 1.4.8

Great game inappropriate adsI enjoy this game - although like others have stated it takes too long to replenish lives and the only other way to do that is through purchasing coins. That does take some of the joy out of the game. My main issue is with the ads this company has chosen to include in the free version. This is a matching game that children may play yet the ads they are choosing to show are for games like Kings Quest and Matchington Mansion which are PG-14 at best. Examples of the ads show a husband having sex with his mistress in the bathroom stall of a public restroom while his pregnant wife’s water breaks upon witnessing it. A husband showering with his mistress while his pregnant wife witnesses it and has her water break. A young woman showing up to a house asking to come in from the rain and then asking the occupant of the house to bathe her. And most recently , a scantily clad woman climbing a library ladder approached by another scantily clad woman - directing the player to slap the backside of the girl on the ladder. As a grown woman I find these ads offensive and they are completely inappropriate for young players. I am not opposed to watching ads, they often help to suggest new games. I am opposed to marketing smut to young people. For that reason I, sadly, had to delete the game..Airforcewife95Version: 1.3.9

Recent Updates/glitches ruined the gameTitle says it all. I don’t know if it’s an update or a glitch, but the game has lost all of its fun for me. A few days ago my whole game glitched me forward about 10 levels, which isn’t a terrible thing, but gameplay since then has been pretty bad. It started recycling the same four layouts, which makes it incredibly boring. The daily puzzle has become completely pointless because it no longer gives you two decor points, only a few coins. It marks your progress with the potted plants, but for what? You get nothing for completing an entire months daily puzzles. It will no longer enter me into the golden piece tournament. I could collect 200 pieces, but when the tournament it over is says I’ve collected 0. It’s also changed so the first 20 pieces now only give you 5 measly coins instead of decor points. I’ve also started having issues where every ad (and there are many) that plays freezes my game or slows it down. This game used to be so much fun, I looked forward to playing it in the morning with my tea and breakfast. But now, there really isn’t anything that would keep me coming back. Very sad and frustrating.M.Leigh123Version: 1.3.6

MehNow I play this game a bunch of times a day, but it’s nothing special. It takes 30 minutes just for one life to refill, with a max of 5 (this takes way too long, especially because the lives while glitch out a lot) The levels aren’t very hard. The vibrations are nice I guess. The room decorating is a total waste, it has like 15 total colors for everything, and they’re all pretty ugly. You can’t pair colors very well without everything being the exact same color. Also there are daily levels which you play to get some sort of plant, the more you play the bigger the plant, but it’s unclear why. I’ve never figured out where the plant goes. It doesn’t become part of the decorations, since you just chose colors for pre chosen furniture. There’s no room for them, they’re just in the calendar as an incentive I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️ Edit: I’m now on level 1940, and I’m fed up. I’ve been stuck for weeks, and I’ve tried getting 30/40 coins for a mix up from the daily calendar, but it’s slow since I have to wait a day for another level. The lives are really annoying, this is supposed to be a chill game but you have to wait so long for more plays. I will not be purchasing coins, they’re a waste of money and might delete.I luv queen gloryVersion: 1.2.0

Level 4859 and about to delete the gameI’ve been playing this game for years. I’m writing this after having spent all of my coins (including the bonus coins given to offset the increase in price) clearing level 4858. It earned me TEN whole coins!!! As many recent reviews have noted, the amount of coins needed for boosters has increased significantly. I’m not happy with that, but I’m also peeved about the fact that I still get “rewarded” 10 coins for passing a level. That used to be great, because there were actually boosters that cost 10 coins. Or I could accumulate them and use them on the more expensive boosters (I believe the most expensive one when I started was about 60 coins). As of this week, the lowest level booster has gone up to 65 coins and the highest level booster costs 350 coins. Then there are some boosters you can choose before playing the board for 250, 400 or 500 coins. A response to one of the reviews was trying to justify the increase by saying they’ve added these premium boosters along with the Zen Resort to improve the player experience. Well, my player experience was great before. These recently added features are not worth the money it will cost to continue playing as I have in the past..Allie Oop 8675309Version: 220000.1.355

Would be my favorite game if the money grabbing wasn’t so aggressiveTo open the game, you have to click through 3-5 screens advertising bonus passes ($9.99) and competitions that you can’t enter without shelling out a lot of money. You win about 10 coins per level but the power up’s cost anywhere from 10-90 coins and the levels are not guaranteed winnable hands. Sometimes you’ll use hundreds of coins on a single level just to make it playable, especially once you reach higher levels (I’m somewhere over 400). You get 5 lives at a time, it takes 25 minutes for each life to reset. The cheapest coin purchase option is $1.99 for 125 coins. To refill your 5 hearts costs 400 coins which costs about $12-20. To get unlimited play for 6 HOURS costs $40. This isn’t on par with other popular games like Beat Star that costs $4.99 for 1 week of unlimited play, and they have to pay licensing fees. These game makers are just greedy. I wish you could go back and play the daily puzzles, even if you can’t earn coins because those are way more fun than the regular levels. I also had over 2000 lotuses and very few completed rooms, came back to find over a dozen rooms I never completed and barely any lotus flowers. Really shady..LcelinaocVersion: 1.3.6

Beware!!!!Rip off!! I have spent so much money on this game and I love it but the makers apparently think if you’re stupid enough to spend your hard-earned money, you will be stupid enough to miss all the ways they rip you off. Where do I even start? They rig this game so you’ll spend money. For starters, 9 times out of 10 , when I earn my reward of infinity lives for so many minutes I am not credited. When you spend 10 coins to reshuffle the board, it takes MANY times to get a match to play. They want you to spend all your coins so you have to buy more! Also, it takes 200 coins to buy 5 lives… the closer you are to 200, the less amount of coins you receive when you “level up” after 10 wins. Again, they don’t want to give you enough to buy more lives because they know that once you’re addicted, you’ll spend the money for them! I expect that… after all, most apps are strictly created with profit in mind. However, this is beyond unfair! I love the game, I really do. But because of the number of times I’ve been ripped off, I’ve deemed it unworthy of my money and will now delete and look for a similar app. Their loss! I was a spending a lot! 💁‍♀️.Klowe906Version: 1.1.1

Fun at first! But soon falls off…TLDR; Extremely rigged later on and in no way ‘Zen’ The game was fun at first and at times relaxing, but the more you progress, it’s near impossible to beat a level without spending upwards of 300+ coins (which is hard to get in the first place). I also enjoyed the game because it was ad free. I stopped playing at 1330 because I had about 650 coins, and blew them all on a ‘Hard’ level and still lost, resulting in losing my power-up bonuses. There are times where there are zero matches and no way to go forward without hitting the shuffle button so many times, and even then you can’t get any matches. There is also a ‘bonus’ level you come across called “First try level” (or something like that) where it is timed and if you finish it in time, you get a decent amount of coins, if not, you get about 10-20 coins. This is incredibly rigged because often times you don’t have enough time to finish it unless you’re some all knowing wizard. I thought this game was supposed to be relaxing? This game is extremely rigged even when you buy the coin packages. Uninstalling. You’re better off downloading an actual Mahjong game. Zen Match? More like Aggravating Match..UshiLotusVersion: 220000.1.321

X-rated adsYou say your game is made for 4+. Yet I just watched an ad for a “KingsThrone” game that shows three cartoon women taking their close off and suggesting they have a foursome. A bit much don’t you think. Should really screen your ads. Otherwise I do enjoy the game..VictoriousSnowVersion: 1.1.1

False advertisingNot only is it not zen( cause it frustrating as F$#@) your tile amount is not like advertised, barley increases. Also become so hard at only level 100 that you will use all your lives on one game and not progress at all. convenient I’d think since they ask u to pay if u want more lives without waiting. The decorate a room part is sad in deed, you get 4-5 colour choices and they are mostly brown all beige- grey colours and that’s all you get to do is colour with their small choices. BORING!!.MelanieGrrVersion: 1.1.3

Open your walletIt just seems to be a way to get you to spend money to buy more coins/points/whatever in order to have the ability to ‘cheat’ your way through the higher levels. I get it, they want to make money and I guess the advertising revenues are not enough for the company that put this game out. Not a very zen game… after level 100 it gets frustrating… unless you pay for the ‘power ups’… but why have advertising in the free version? I guess these folks want it all… I voted with my feet and deleted it… I won’t be back..JimothyjonesVersion: 1.1.3

Awful updateThe new update where you took away the shuffle, new cards, and undo is horrible. How do you want us to spend our coins?? This has made me want to delete the game. No fun anymore..Person who rocksVersion: 1.3.1

If I could give it 0 stars I would.The update ruined the game. The new boosters are not helpful and only having them available before the level starts is terrible. I will not be playing this game anymore..Adam sandler marry meVersion: 1.3.3

What happened?What happened to the other boosters? I’m level 262, and the mixing, move re-do and extra level tiles are all gone. Replaced with a +1 move that isn’t helpful. Even in the daily game where you could win boosters, it’s now coins?.BrscarrottVersion: 1.3.0

After level 100 can’t playAfter you reach level 100 it’s impossible to play without losing every time. This game sucks.LANI241Version: 1.1.3

3x coinsIt pisses me off that you got rid of the 3x coin option. 10 coins every time you finish, and then it costs more than 10 coins for some of the boosts, you basically have no chance of ever getting passed certain levels. It is really annoying..Skuggs1010101Version: 1.1.3

What happened ? :(This has been my go-to relaxing game for probably 6 months, but it’s just changed in a way that makes it more frustrating than zen. The in-level tools (half tiles, undo move, and shuffle) are all gone! Especially frustrating since I recently made an in-app purchase to get a bunch of them and I guess I just lost that purchase since the feature isn’t there anymore. I’m so so disappointed because these changes sort of ruin the game, and I feel scammed out of the money I paid. :(.MimiBubbaVersion: 1.3.3

Money grabI’ve played this game for months and it used to be fun until I updated it yesterday. Now the levels are impossible to beat without helps and basically the only way to get helps now is to buy them. I’m very disappointed. I will no longer be playing this game..JennHEDLEYVersion: 1.2.6

Zen MatchI was hoping that a big part of this game wasn’t pure luck. I don’t like that it’s pure luck if you reveal a hidden object that you need. I deleted it after 2 days..RufkgseriousVersion: 1.1.3

Very glitchyStarted out really fun, but then started because very glitchy and laggy. Screen will often just turn black and eat your lives or if you watch an ad for more coins, at the end of the ad the screen will go back so you’ve watched an ad for nothing. Will be looking for an alternative now..Hippo__Version: 1.1.1

So much changesStop changing the game !! It’s too much ! It was a fun game in the start 1 year ago but now with the time and all, it’s frustrating and stressful!!.Lili4847Version: 220000.1.600

No ads, great gameplayThis is a great game. There are no ads, which is a huge bonus. But there are SO many internal pop-ups, it’s unbelievable. I just hover my finger over the X so I can close them immediately without reading them. When I first started playing, maybe around a year ago, the pop-ups were excessive but tolerable, and I actually looked at them. Now they’re getting to the point where they annoy me so much I close the app. There shouldn’t be so many in a row, it’s ridiculous. This is no longer my favourite or go-to iPhone game..Bella SurrenderedVersion: 220000.1.530

Too much going onThis game used to be fun but they kept adding more and more extras and side games and whiz bang stuff AND attempts to sell things until it just isn’t fun anymore..XstgbvfVersion: 220000.1.471

Ruined itCongrats on ruining the game. You guys constantly find ways to make it unplayable. Wanting to take every dollar you can from your players. Pure greed. Give your heads a shake.Rel?Version: 220000.1.386

Too much changeI started playing this game like 2 years ago and it was really fun back then but with each update they would had new things and now it’s just too much it’s not as fun anymore. I did over 2000 levels but I don’t like it anymore. It was better when it was more simple.SamdonnaabbasophiaVersion: 220000.1.372

THIS GAME IS ONLY ABOUT $$$-AVOID!This game is NOTHING the ad/display description. There is no « zen puzzle » . In the beginning it was fun. Now you cannot play without having to play with real $$$. The price for a simple «swap tiles » was 20coins, now it’s 120coins. It’s abusive and not fun at all.By adding different useless worlds, like beach/island, you are losing the essence of the game. Don’t spend any money on this game , because there will be no end to it. AVOID!.Coconut0007Version: 220000.1.355

GreedyI’ve been playing this game for a WHILE. And they just suddenly raise the prices of of all of the bonus abilities. It’s a big f-you to all the players.Pillow_fluffVersion: 220000.1.340

Please don’t download this gameThis game is annoying and would take forever just to clear one level. It is owned by moon active 🔵⚪️. if you like these type of games try traditional mahjong game. if you like the cute icons 🍉🍉🌸🌼🫒🌳get another matching game that has those icons..Sweetpeach13Version: 220000.1.310

I criedTerrible game it supposed to make me relax but I was crying so hard it caused me so much stress that I had to be rushed to the hospital because my blood pressure increased and my hair immediately fell out.Mai🤗Version: 220000.1.207

Just okBecomes unplayable after level 160 unless you start dumping money into it. I have to agree with the other reviews..Rev man8322Version: 220000.1.194

Good game the Zen is ruined quicklyFun game, I was hoping to get that board like in all the ads but it is basically Mahjong - which I still like. Speaking of ads - boy do they make sure you see them. After EVERY game an ad pops up and you have to close it 3-4 times every time. It’s a bit much. I don’t mind that they use ads to keep this game free, but having to close them 3-4 times every time after every game gets pretty annoying. Also, the app reloads if you move away from the app even for a moment. Kind of sucks when you are far along on their ‘fortune path’ and they reset it on you checked a text or had to take a quick call. :( I ended up deleting this app because of these issues..Moy.moiVersion: 1.2.2

Money grabThe game has too many adverts, and is a bit of a money grab!.VPACE64Version: 1.2.2

Too hard past lvl 90Levels after you reach 90 are so hard that I’ll be lucky if I succeed even just one level. And that’ll be after using all 5 of my lives and most of my help thingies (like the undo, mix the tiles and stuff). Maybe I’ll even have to wait for my lives to refill and then use them all again to actually pass one level. Also, like someone else said, the choices for the design part of the game are kinda sad.. :/ There’s not many choices and it’s mainly the same colours that aren’t that pretty or don’t really fit well together, I’ll try so hard to change colour combination but I usually still end up thinking it looks weird.. My issue is mainly that it’s too hard now, I can’t progress at all.Void~FaithVersion: 1.2.1

Constant crashingAds freeze up the game way too often..Caharvey9949Version: 1.1.9

Frustrating timerIs it just me or the timer for the lives doesn’t work very well ?! Actually it’s very annoying !!.Blah48000Version: 1.1.9

Stupid gameIt’s nothing like the ad. it’s boring and it gets too hard too quickly. it’s not even fun just frustrating..Annikas2185Version: 1.1.9

The fact cheatsThe timer starts before all the tiles have been placed and before you can even begin to play. Also, the colour options for the “zen” seriously lacks choices..Dutchess Von BonbonVersion: 1.1.9

RiggedEver since they did that stupid competition a game that use to be relaxing and enjoyable has become clearly rigged and about money! All they want now is for you to spend money to buy more coins and they make the first level easy and the second nearly impossible. I’m done it’s a waste of time and stresses me more than it relaxes me now.Didinee01Version: 1.1.9

Glitches?No because it was so good before but now when you run out of lives it starts the countdown until the refill will occur but you go back like half an hour later and you still have zero lives and the countdown has restarted itself. also you used to be able to force close the app when you ran out of moves and then go back in without it counting as a heart lost but now you can’t do that and it just lowkey makes it less fun bc you can only play for like 5-10 minutes at a time before you have to wait again.GojunpyokoreaVersion: 1.1.9

Game becomes unplayable after 75 levelsThe beginning levels are easy, and you can zoom through the first 50 without wasting any lives. Once you get past level 75, the game becomes purely based on luck and it becomes impossible to win, even if you have a high skill level. Its basically winnable with the right lucky combination or if you pay for the shuffle feature. Its too bad because it was fun when it was actually a challenge but it is simply not possible to play it when you get to the higher levels and its not based on skill..Forestcity.Version: 1.1.0

Not that greatThe higher levels are impossible to win. The game is nothing like the ad for it either..FergiehVersion: 1.1.3

No longer worksI played this for a long time but it has stopped loading. Tried to delete and reinstall twice. No joy..Adambr3Version: 220000.1.740

Too many ads, too expensive to cash in perksI have been playing this game for quite a while now and am well over level 2000. I like the game but it has turned into a hassle to play. Forced ads are a dealbreaker. Viewing ads by choice is preferable. Earning coins to use for perks or helpers is great BUT it takes forever to earn a pittance and very “expensive” to cash them in for very small things, quickly wiping out what took a while to earn. I like the map world that has been added but again, very hard to earn the points to clear the blockage in your path to move on. Earning 2 points per round yet it costs 20-1800 points for each block?! Takes forever and takes the interest out of it. I hope changes are made to make this game actually enjoyable rather than just a blatant platform for ads and trying to force you to spend money just to advance to the next level where you are blocked again. Frustrating, not fun..Fuzzle8147Version: 220000.1.731
