Seaside Escape®: Merge & Story Positive Reviews

Loved at first, not so much nowThis is a update to my first review that you can see below. After playing for a while, the game is getting too tedious and aggravating for me. I don’t follow story lines because they don’t interest me, so I’m just here to play the game. A large part of these types of merge games is the building. In other games, I have the option to pick colors or schemes for decorating. This one has nothing to pick from. It just quickly builds a building without any input from the player at all. Very boring. Also, there are so many different items to merge that it’s hard to keep up, or know when it’s best to delete unwanted items. Most items also take several stages to merge and the board fills up quickly. I haven’t spent any real money on the game, and after playing for a while, I’m more likely to just delete it. And the storage for the tools is lame. Just give storage for high level items that you don’t want to delete. I’m done. ************* Really like this matching game so far. It’s straightforward and you can play for a while before you need to get more energy. So far I haven’t spent any real money, but there is potential for that if the game continues to impress me. I expect to have to spend real money at some point because I’m sure they aren’t going to continually hand out free energy. No annoying ads every few minutes either. Kudos to the developer..Writer44Version: 1.27.0

A Love Letter to the Simpler ThingsThis game isn’t meant to captivate your every waking moment. This game is to make you smile or chuckle or remember a sweet nostalgic event from your past. If you follow the story line you are taken to the characters’ own little slice of the world and are immersed in its culture and warmth (and if you’re missing Turkish/Greek relatives like I am, it really plays to the nostalgia). At the same time, the way that the game is structured (being a merge-based game), there’s a semblance of feeling like you are working toward something, piece by piece, just like the characters are doing to restore their island. It’s not “The Game of the Year” or “The Best of All Time”, but it’s something small that can occupy a small space in my brain when everything else feels like too much, and I appreciate that this game was made on purpose- that is to say it wasn’t just made for the sake of slapping something together and calling it a game. The story is thought out, things are revealed similarly to they way they would be in a book, it’s not hyper realistic but I don’t think anybody expects it to be. I’m at a place right now where a lot is going on in my life and most of it feels like too much but this little game has it’s purpose, and it lets me have a little purpose too, outside of everything else. Thank you..LadyGameDevVersion: 1.37.0

Perfect if you like this type of gameI keep thinking that I should write them a review & am finally getting around to it. Microfun knows how to make a game. The graphics are very well done & there are zero ads. Zero. Not even an option. In-game purchases are more expensive than other games, likely due to the lack of ads, but are completely unnecessary. I’ve bought a couple to have a bit more play time, really just to give the developers money because they deserve it. I even rather like the storyline. I usually skip that kind of stuff, but this one is interesting to me. Another one that they made called Gossip Harbor isn’t nearly as engaging of a story for me, but other people might like it & the graphics and play style are every bit as quality as this one. They have at least two 3D versions that have more of the building aspect that some people like. I play Merge Fables. Quality graphics again on these; those ones have infrequent optional ads, but they are also completely unnecessary..ChoshojoVersion: 1.33.0

I Really Like This Game, But…….I really like this game but it is definitely a money stealer. The energy that you have to use just to make the merges are ridiculous. Then once you get so far there is another merge category thrown in and then you have all these different areas open for merging and no energy to be able to form what you need or space to form them. If you make the mistake of selling or getting rid of what you need then you have to build that item all the way back up. I have spent so much money just within the last two weeks trying to get the items that the customers and the game are requesting and that’s with me being a pretty good strategist, I feel! If it wasn’t for that this game would be so much better for that reason alone I’m going to eventually have to erase the game, at this point I’ve put out more money in this game then the cost of a utility in my home. There’s not enough perks for that amount of money that I’m spending to play it, it wraps you up pulls you in and then and then you run out of energy. One good perk about it is there is little to no ads but in order to play this game successfully you will pay dearly for that perk! Whoever came up with the plot for this game truly did there job. So this is really a fun game but in order to successfully play you have to Pay! So for that reason is why I gave the game 3 stars it is really a 2 but I do like this game..Evony77Version: 1.39.0

It was ok until it wasn’tAt first, this game was a really good game. Super fun, maybe even a little addictive. After a few days of playing, I started noticing whenever I spent rubies in the game to unlock bubble items within the game half the time it would take my gems and not give me the item. The first couple of times it was fine because it was only less than 10 rubies I was using. For some reason when I started attempting to pop some of the higher value bubbles (20+ rubies each) it would take the gems and not give me the reward 100% of the time. Upon reaching out to support about this issue I was told I’ve “never used rubies to purchase bubbles prior to reaching out” which was completely incorrect. Yes it’s just a game and yes (thankfully) I didn’t spend my money to purchase said rubies that were stolen from me, however I’d much rather not play a game where someone from support is going to flat out tell me I’m a lier when its simply rubies that were earned within the game that ended up being stolen by the game. All they had to do was hear me out and fix the problem or just say there was no way to confirm the situation instead of accusing someone of lying about their game glitching..JA.ShayVersion: 1.40.0

It get stagnant…It got me interested up to level 30, kept trying up to level 32 and I think I’m done. I don’t spend money on these types of games never have and most likely never will, so that is a factor to take into consideration. It makes it challenging to advance if you don’t spend money. Storage becomes an issue, you don’t know what to keep or what to throw away in case you are asked for it in the future to fulfill the “orders”. The energy stays on 100 but the items to merge becomes more and more complicated so that only lasts for a few minutes and the you have to wait for another couple of hours to refill. Sometimes, the needed item won’t come until after a ridicule amount of other unnecessary items that consumes your energy come up. Too many side little games that will barely give you energy, coins or diamonds. Paying diamonds for everything but then barely getting any. Again, it’s designed to keep you hooked long enough so then you feel like you have/need to spend $ bc of all the time you put into it. I’m not like that, I know I have a choice and I like to put money into something more fruitful…and of course eventually my time..RandomHalVersion: 1.39.0

Decent app but still growing painsI enjoy the other apps by this company, but this one doesn’t feel like it’s gotten all the kinks worked out yet. For example, on Gossip Harbor the things you have to build will range from high level/longer builds to fairly quick, so you’re always meeting goals while also working on longer term goals. They are also well spread out across the different things that produce. But this one often has just 3 goals you’re working on and they all are very high level items and it feels like a grind to get to them. They also don’t spread out what produces the items you’re working for, so most of the things I haven’t had to merge in a long time. The daily challenge goals to earn coins (earn $x in a day) are so out of reach of what’s possible that there’s no point in trying. In Gossip Harbor the daily goals are all feasible. I don’t know if they don’t have enough levels yet, so they’re trying to slow us down, or if they haven’t figured out how to program it to give a decent variation of goals. But I’m finding that it’s more frustrating than fun. Which is a shame, because they do a good job with the graphics and story..LadyMReddVersion: 1.10.1

Engaging and cheerfulA good game to play when recovering from a long illness. No intrusive adverts!! The story of the movie star from the ads for this game only covers the introduction to explain how Rowan came to the island. I’m only on level 18, so maybe it will feature more prominently later. Instead, the focus is on restoring old family and friend relationships while restoring various buildings and structures on the island by matching icons. there’s enough to do to keep your engaged for a little while. You can spend money to advance faster, but you’ll still progress without in-app purchases. I’ve only played for a few days, so that could change. So far, it’s a treat. I’ve also enjoyed the diversity of the secondary characters and am looking forward to more in the story line about preserving ancient history by restoring tourist attractions before a corporate resort firm buts out the residents. (You can ignore the plot and still play the game, but I especially like the storytelling!) Have fun!.Brandy in Austin, TXVersion: 1.26.0

One of the BestThis is a great game. You can pick it up and play for a couple of minutes or a couple of hours. When you come back to play it, it’s the same as when you left only with more energy😉. There are the story lines about the businesses that you can follow, the wonderfully illustrated pieces that you are trying to merge and the backstories of the customers that you are trying to merge and create items for. Also, there are mini-games where you have one day or several to earn extra jewels, coins, and energy. Of course it is possible to purchase (for real money) more energy, etc., but you honestly don’t have to buy anything to play the game AND enjoy it!😁 AND NO ADS!🎉.LLOliverRVersion: 1.27.0

Pretty fun gameI’m a huge fan of this game and the other games by the same developers. Something I’ve noticed though in this game is that it costs a lot to advance in the story after getting to a certain point. Something that I think about is that many other games that follow this format have small free things everyday, and the different types of merge games by the same developers also have everyday free chests/items to give the games a little boost. It’s the only merge game I’ve played that doesn’t offer a little free chest/item everyday and it does make me a little sad because I’d love to have something for playing it multiple days. Also I noticed that the reward for completing three tasks everyday went away as soon as I hit a level to where I got the limited time gameplays and that does make me a little sad as I was able to consider that an everyday playing reward. Overall I enjoy the game, it’s a pretty good merge game but I do wish for motivation to return to it day after day..Klp1998Version: 1.10.1

Really enjoying the gameI knew it would be better than most other merge games since it’s the same company as gossip harbor (put so many hours into that game) but can tell they are still working a few kinks out. Since playing there have been a good amount of bug and gameplay fixes; more orders available, a good continuous stream of events, and a background audio bug they jumped on really fast. Only thing I’ve noticed recently is my past 2 fully upgraded vases aren’t really giving me any gems, I get a bunch of gold and a max of 4 total diamonds when collected; just seems like a pain to work on getting a max vase for the reward to not be there. Also would be nice to have a free collect daily; like a vase or energy to look forward to. Other than that great game and have really enjoyed it so far, can’t wait to see what the developers continue to do with it..Ali97971Version: 1.14.10

Favorite Merge GameLove this game so much! I've played plenty of merge games in the last few months, but by far I've played this one the longest. I love the relaxed atmosphere, the story, the characters, and the art. I've never found it boring, whereas most other merge games I end up deleting because it either became too frustrating or too dull. This one always has plenty of events, and is just so chill. It's also great to see some LGBTQ+ representation (Mia & Emilie) in a Chinese game, a culture where queerness is still more taboo. Also love the diversity in the cast, it's very well rounded and cute in general. Love the little stories and the close-knit family dynamic they all have. Can't say enough about this game! Criminally underrated.AeroborealVersion: 1.11.1

A bit slow, but still good!I genuinely love this game (and yes, that might partially have to do with the fact that the main character shares my name). The art style and graphics are appealing, and really fit the vibes of the game. The story is cute, but also isn’t really needed to still enjoy the game. I definitely recommend reading it though. The progression is relatively linear and tasks are not ridiculously complicated, however energy can be a bit of a setback. Like Merge Mansion, you cannot watch ads in game to get free energy, which makes waiting for energy a bit more tedious. Also, the base price of 20 diamonds for an energy refill is a high in my opinion, and I think it would be much easier if it was 10 diamonds for the first refill of the day. Overall, however, it’s still incredibly fun. I spend more time playing than I would like to admit. Its slower pacing can be frustrating at times to impatient players (no judgement here, I’m one of those impatient players!) but it’s fulfilling to complete a task. Good job, dev team!.Cure MelonpanVersion: 1.9.0

Great Merge game!!!!!I play a lot of merge games and I’ve have to say Seaside Escape has to be my favorite but I do have a couple issues. One is the the storage area, you have to use diamonds to increase the space why can’t it be coins or at least be a little amount of diamonds? Second there’s gotta be other ways to increase the energy without having to use diamonds, everything cost diamonds which I understand that we get free ones when we merge to new items but before we get to the higher items we run out of energy. I do recommend this merge game to everyone who like/loves merge games this one is one of the best. I’d give it 5 stars if the energy/ diamonds would change maybe a daily spin? Or daily bonus?.Rosebuds SisterVersion: 1.10.1

Love this game however…I’d like to see a free energy recharge every day. All the merge games I play give u something free just for visiting that day. The energy should be 10 gems to fill the first time then 20 then 30. You should balance out the very difficult tasks with some easy ones so we can meet the requirements of the special events. I can’t get 5 customers orders done in a day at the level I’m at. I love the story and the characters that’s my favorite part! It’s a super fun merge game but I see myself not playing it much longer because of the above reasons. How on earth do I even get a petal duo? Wish the game told you were to get things from? There are no instructions at all and no help on the internet either..Peace1973Version: 1.10.1

Great…ButI love playing the game. I never make purchases on apps but I have purchased off this app…several times. This game is actually a 5 star game but the major problem I have is what’s with all the coins that you don’t get to use? Why can’t we purchase items with coins? There’s no boost to purchase with coins. Everything is gems & those gems aren’t easy to come by. They don’t add up. This is a game a person could play for hours but it gets cut down because of energy. Plus you charge too much for energy refills. It’s almost as if you want to limit what we do. I don’t like this & eventually I will stop playing this game because you’re not being fair to none of the users of this game. Forcing users to purchase isn’t a good way to get good reviews!.Sh4y$1011Version: 1.20.0

The wait…Let me start by saying this game is a great time killer. I’m a full time college student so sometimes I look for a little brain break. I like to lean to this game but I get a good 5-10 minutes before I’m out of energy. The chances of winning energy is difficult, usually requiring more than 100 energy to accumulate. There are no free options to “earn” or for better terms, trade, our time for energy. I would like to be able to continue playing this game, make advances to higher levels, but the wait to accumulate energy is pretty long for a game that’s just about merging objects. Like I said, it’s a fun time killer- but once you get to a certain point it’s easy to forget about because you’re always waiting for energy. Just my opinion!.Kyllz765Version: 1.16.5

Should be RecognizedThis game is SO awesome! The story is great. The characters are awesome. I can’t think of anything wrong with this game AT ALL! I feel like this game is not as recognized as it should be. I mean realistically the only thing that could be wrong is if you don’t like to wait to do things in a game then you might not want to download this. But if you’re ok with being patient then this game has it all. It has great characters, graphics, and story. You don’t have to pay for anything if you don’t want to, the game is that easy! In conclusion, I love this game and I HIGHLY recommend! ❤️.LikeYouKnow275Version: 1.25.0

Fun but needs improvementI like the simplicity of the game. It’s a fun game to spend a few minutes on. A couple suggestions to make it more enjoyable, as you go up in levels, the board becomes excessively full. It would be nice if you got more storage as you went up levels. Or a new board when it gets to a certain level. The simple pot takes 5 energy points then throws out a leaf or bottle that you need to use energy to remove. Seems like a waste. You can only really play for about 15 minutes until you run out of energy. It’s fun for those minutes but without some areas to move stuff, it will not be as enjoyable..Kclifford2003Version: 1.10.1

Wasted energy on planter beads level 33I really like this game in the beginning. It felt very different than the other merge games. However, reaching level 33 the planter beads require almost 7 energy points to produce a level one item. My question to the developer is what is the rationale for needing to use seven energy points to produce an item? The fact that some of the equipment for example, the food processor requires several points to get the lemons in order to make drinks. In my eyes, that’s a bit more understandable than requiring multiple points to not have any results at all or those that enjoy the apps I wonder if they’ve reached this level or not. Looking forward to your response..MlpenniVersion: 1.13.0

PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE THIS GAMEI am a long time player of one of their other similar merge games, Gossip Harbor, and while I love that game, events always seem unattainable, and I make little progress in the story because it takes so many coins and the customer requests are so elaborate! In this game, they so far have made events attainable without spending a lot of money on in app purchases, while also having the ability to make progress in the main story due to the multiple storylines with characters. PLEASE don’t change this game or make it worse. You’re nailing it so far..MarlapopVersion: 1.10.1

Merge Mansion but way betterThis game doesn’t money grab and it’s still playable without paying! You’ve still got to sell things off occasionally to make room for the items you really need, but it starts to let you store your item producers for free as you level up, thank God! It’s so much cleaner feeling and more streamlined than Merge Mansion… that game started to give me anxiety cuz I couldn’t properly organize the clutter. This game is my go-to in between whatever, 10/10.RauniLongswordVersion: 1.32.0

Semi bummedI was expecting something a lot different, the game is nothing like advertised. When do we move on to other games inside the game? The matching board is entertaining however it does take quite some time to merge the pieces to get your desired piece. I’ve been playing for a little while now in hopes that the game will take me to another level beside matching items. I don’t follow the story line, I just want to get to the next phase of the game if there is one like advertised. The storage could be more. Overall I’m on the fence about the game but not quite ready to delete yet. Really hoping there is more then where I am currently in the game..Braca-MoVersion: 1.39.0

FrustratingThis game is super fun to start, & I’ve enjoyed the story so far; however, I’m at a point in the game where some of the generators cost 6 energy just to generate one item, then those items need to be merged at least 8 times, meaning I don’t make any progress for days or even weeks sometimes. Please stop making item generators that require 6 energy just to get one item out of them. It’s frustrating & makes me want to give up on the game entirely. I understand you want people to spend gems & money, but the level of frustration trying to get a bouquet of roses has made me want to delete the game, not give you my money..Abigator56Version: 1.34.0

Fun but frustratingThis is exactly what I was looking for in a match game, and is a fun way to kill a few minutes. My biggest complaint is that it is very difficult to get the things you need to meet goals. While I understand it supposed to be challenging, it goes to being boring/not fun when it takes literal days to get something you need. (Example- I need trees for three of my four goals, and instead keep getting water.) It seems there’s no way around it, and I tend to ignore the game out of not caring. I do wish the developers would continue to make it challenging m, but would also make it a bit easier to meet goals!.AimBo1117Version: 1.27.0

Just okayI love the game and story lines but progressing is impossible. I understand leveling may take more coins over time but it’s nearly impossible. It takes me 1-2 real life days to sometimes fill an order and that’s likely just tools. I wish I could sell tools for money because I have so many of each kind and unable to upgrade. They add content every week but who can even play when once you hit a certain point you basically have to spend real life money or barely play. Half the story lines I love but can’t remember when it takes multiple days to even have three lines of conversation..KayleyMBVersion: 1.31.0

What am I collecting coins?Like the game. Takes forever to reach some of the goals for the orders. I don’t get the point of collecting coins. You can’t use them to buy gems from what I’ve seen. I don’t understand how to use the coins. I’ve look in the help section and did not find anything about it. What is the purpose of collecting coins? I have at least 18,000 coins and don’t know what to do with them It would be great if I could use the coins to buy gems. Amount of energy is too short because of the long term goals. You’ll end up wasting at least 50 energy points just trying to get one item. As a result, you are tempted to buy gems only to still get nowhere or meeting the goal. Now you have to KEEP BUYING gems or wait. What is the purpose of the coins? Is it possible to make some of the long term goals short term goals by using coins? Give an option to choose which level of the item you need. Feel like I’m just spinning my wheels going nowhere fast.SJNerdyGirlVersion: 1.20.0

Fun but quittingThis game was fun in the beginning but the developer makes it too difficult to create the items. You can only service three customers at a time and the items they want you to create is super high level that makes it so difficult to achieve. Also too many different items and it takes up the whole board. Not to mention it is hard to gain extra energy. Other games give you daily energy bonus thus one doesn’t. It takes too long to build the items so that why I gave it three stars. This is too time consuming and little rewards..James LibelyVersion: 1.11.1

Great gameI highly recommend this great game! Fun and engaging for any age group. Game helps you along each step, and if you need review it’s easy to access. As the main character developed and meets with other characters, it’s easy to follow the storyline. If you forget, you can easily scroll up and review the story. It’s a fun way to get distracted from life for a few minutes. Start it, you won’t be able to put it down! Oh, and you certainly won’t be disappointed, either..Marti87114Version: 1.33.0

Love/HateI love this game. Merging and upgrading items is so satisfying. However the further you get in the game the longer it takes to make any progress unless you’re willing to dish out a good chunk of money. I wish more energy was available as prizes and I wish energy would build up to at least to 200 over time instead of just 100, then stopping. This game has a lot of potential & is relaxing until you run out of energy and can’t do anything until it takes hours to build up more. 😩.122456788910Version: 1.38.0

It isn’t anything greatIt’s the same as all these games where you either pay to play or can only play a little bit at a time. That part isn’t great. I do want to thank this game for teaching me the tile game. I couldn’t find the game for sale. So we made some sets. It was really easy. We used 1”x1” wooden tiles. Painted them and there you have it. I suggest playing a little bit before making your sets so you have a god idea how to play. It’s such a big hit we play less alone on our phones and more in person..PinkbraingooVersion: 1.38.0

Found by Accident = Happy ErrorI’ve downloaded so many merge games. This one takes the cake! You don’t have to replenish your energy every ten minutes, items, goals and levels are more than achievable, and above all, I’m not bombarded by ads every 10 seconds. Plus, the story line is a nice little twist! Definitely got my vote. In fact, I’ve now deleted nearly all of merge games as I was so entranced by this one, additional entertainment was no longer necessary..Ashmur322Version: 1.10.1

There’s no “contact us” in the game??Why did you charge me 3x than what is said on the icon of what I want to purchase? I bought $10 and you charged me $28… and this has happened twice. Then I get an email from you saying, “Dear player, thanks a lot for your support. In order to help us better solve your problem, please contact us through Settings (in the top right corner of the game) - Feedback if you encounter any problem. This way we can get your game ID and your game status in time.” I don’t see anything in the settings on how to contact you (in the game)..ChiasmusfulVersion: 1.36.5

Can get so expensive!I enjoy this game. I play it most days. The thing that REALLY bugs me is how expensive it can be. Most games, when you buy the weekly “pass” for extra goodies, you continue to get it once the new pass starts. But not this one! $4.99 a pop. Yes, it’s a lot of energies, gems, etc, but it can easily get expensive. So if you are patient and can play a few and then go away, you’ll be fine with this game. But If you want to sit down for an hour and just play it, you better plan to pay or just build up your energies and gems to keep at it..TrishaFilthVersion: 1.27.0

Stuck, unable to move forwardI really enjoy this game. The story’s engaging, the characters interesting. But I’m stuck with a full board, so I can’t create items to merge or fill orders, and a full inventory, so I can’t move anything off the board to make space for items to merge with inventory items. I can’t get any more tools so I can’t build any locations. In short, I can no longer play any aspects of the game. I’m happy to pay gems or gold or actual money to create new spaces in the inventory cabinet. There’s a “New slot” icon to tap, but it no longer works to create a new slot. What now?.Sereniti1952Version: 1.18.0

Not enough use of all itemsI was really loving this game, however now that I have advanced, I just keep getting requests for the exact same items all the time. Sleeping bag after sleeping bag. Also not enough tasks that give tool boxes as a reward. In the beginning I had more tools than I needed. Now all I have is an abundance of coins and no tools! Can’t get anywhere in the game now without spending money!.Skittles04Version: 1.18.0

Diverse charactersI only downloaded the game because a review mentioned LGBT+ storyline — it’s not the main character’s. It wasn’t a surprise, but I am surprised by how invested I am into the game’s story as a whole. The dialogue is well paced too and doesn’t cut at odd times..Ayo-giegieVersion: 1.33.0

…It’s a really fun game, but the advertisements are fake. You should change the advertisements and make the advertisements more realistic to the game!!! If it wasn’t for that you would get a five star.Bils15Version: 1.33.0

Seaside Escape®: Merge & Story Negative Reviews

Fun at first but….This game is so fun at first but at a certain point you won’t be able to fulfill any orders for days because it’s sooo tedious. I don’t mind the tasks being hard but this is ridiculous. I’m on level 38 so I’ve been playing a while but the only thing to do is merge so if you run out of energy that’s it, a waiting game. I personally don’t spend any money on games like these and this game is designed for you to get frustrated and spend the money constantly. As you progress you will only get hard orders that don’t rlly give you anything in return, for instance 1 order can sometimes take 200 pieces of energy and only give out 2 building boxes which in turn will only give you two tools (if you’re lucky)that you have to wait to use. It takes any where from 3-5pieces of each tool to go with the story because to progress in the story you must build and I don’t even follow the story!! So as I progress the game is becoming unappealing and I definitely won’t be spending money to gain energy because it’ll just be a waste! I’ve been playing for a while and waited to give my review but this is the gist, they start you off slow and free but as you level up you’ll be on an order for a while if you don’t spend money. Even with spending money you’ll just be throwing it away cause again it’s so tedious and the merging takes forever when it’s a higher level item which it usually is as u progress. Honestly about to say goodbye to this game because it’s just not worth it.Ghostbusters10Version: 1.33.0

Great! For the first 20 levels…I always wait on writing a review until I’ve been playing a while, specifically because of games like this. I’m now at level 39, and the game progress has slowed ASTRONOMICALLY. I’ve been grinding on the same 5 tasks for weeks, I don’t even know the last time I leveled up. I never ever even attempt to make daily “challenges” anymore, they are literally impossible to meet without spending money (you want us to spend daily? really?). The amount of energy offered in exchange for watching ads is frankly insulting to players’ time, if you’re offered an ad at all. I haven’t engaged with the bingo event in who knows how long - who has the energy to spare? I don’t look at progress with collector cards feature, I’ve literally never collected a single set and I’ve been playing longer than it’s been a feature in the game. Buy energy with gems? Good luck, gem tiles are extremely rare and you have to trade in a max level gem tile to afford a single energy box, and a refill to max energy costs nearly as much. The art is very cute and polished-looking and the nicest thing I can say about the game, however the game is not a novel concept so idk what they’re banking on here. This developer is so unbelievable stingy - great game if you plan on ditching it after the initial rush of progress..Brainwater90Version: 1.27.0

Boy Do I have A Game That’s Not For You!Imagine you’re at work… and you see an ad for a game that sparks your interest. They let you play the game for 2.54 seconds. You enjoy it. “This is fun,” you think to yourself. You look at your work email to find its slow so you jump off the deep end and download the app. You decide to be productive and answer some work emails, then reward yourself with a 5 minute game break. (Life is all about balance, remember that.) Within the first 3 minutes and 28 seconds, you discover that the ad was all a lie. The game you downloaded has absolutely no correlation with the ad. You decide to do some investigating. Upon reviewing the App Store, you find the picture that looks just like the ad… attached to the game that is nothing like the ad. Suddenly you don’t believe in people anymore. There’s no truth to what you’re getting. You start to question life and where you went wrong. You’re sweating and shaking all at the same time. How do you survive life? You can’t. It’s all a lie… I had more fun writing this review than I actually did playing the game that was falsely advertised. Hey marketers? Go back to university. I don’t know what cereal box gave you your degree, but I’d ask for a return. Marketing 101… Market the RIGHT product. You’re no better than credit card scammers..Kasey fVersion: 1.38.0

Near impossible game play at level 31You get less and less requests/orders as you progress. The tasks keep getting more difficult but the rewards keep giving less which makes no sense. I don’t mind there being difficult orders where it takes weeks of playing to finish but there’s no fillers/simple orders where you can complete for the day to keep you interested. Daily task is impossible, for example, 10k gold a day? I can’t even get that now because a lot of the orders now pays no gold, just building tools. There’s marge games out there I played for a couple years and I got stuck a few times but there are still things to do. This game, I’m just stuck and even if I pay to progress, it will cost a lot. I know the end goal is to people to pay but this money hungry move just make me wanna give up. It should be pay to progress faster, not pay just to progress. I’ve been playing this for a couple months religiously and paid quite a bit into the game but this ain’t it. There’s no enjoyment anymore, which is sad because I love the designs and gameplay until I’m forced to pay. I give up on this game..Nickelodeon in real lifeVersion: 1.10.1

MehI consistently play this and gossip harbor on a daily basis. I have been able to level up on GH as time goes on, yet with this game there’s no way to earn energy by watching an ad or a daily gift like there is on GH. Also there’s only 3 orders that are ridiculously hard presented at a time, truly frustrating and feels like you’re just treading water…I’m truly ready to delete, I’m only at level 36 and have played since the first day this game came out… make it a little easier to gain energy!! Thank you! Update: I’ve continued to play and sticking with it because this isn’t a bad game, however….there is so many dang generators that there’s barely room to merge, I can only work on one order at a time because there isn’t room to even attempt to work on two at a time. Please remove the generators that aren’t being used past a certain level or option to delete, thank you!!.Jimjam14Version: 1.15.0

Love the idea, but…Another reviewer said “easy to level up.“ Hmm, no. initially, yes, very quickly you can merge things and get the coins and gems and everything you need to press grass in the storyline. HOWEVER, After a while, you get these outrageous, customer requests that take days to build energy and merge enough to fill their requests. There is also an item that produces things that can’t be merged, you can’t delete them, And you have to use up 5 to 7 points of energy just to get them off the board and they give you one coin. Of course, you can spend real money to get more energy and more coins and more gems to be able to do this all quicker, but that can really add up to being very expensive. I’m all for supporting game developers with an occasional purchase, but not to the point this game requires to progress in a reasonable amount of time..BiddygVersion: 1.8.1

Save your money, don’t waste your time.This is a recharge game cheating the player's psychology. Early game is fun. Like a chess piece, you need two identical pieces to make a new chess piece. Then complete the mission to receive gold coin rewards and building material packs. Upgrade according to game missions. Slowly you will find that the energy it provides is not enough for you to complete a mission. It takes 2 minutes to get an energy. This also means that it is impossible for you to complete the mission, and you need to recharge and buy their diamonds to continue. And it will constantly remind you of buy discounted packages. Until level 35, you find that even if you recharge over $20 a day, you still can not complete a mission. I feel this game is most like a trap for players. Don't waste your time and money, try other games it’s get more fun. I would not recommend it to anyone..BlueIceCattyVersion: 1.9.0

At first it was greatI loved this at first even spending money on it. However, a game isn’t fun if it goes no where- no end in sight. You want us to click these objects up to 4 times (using 4 times the energy mind you) and your out of energy before you know it. If it needs a specific item it constantly gives me other stuff. Why play a game if there’s no chance to win or progress? It becomes boring. I use to come to this game several times a day- as I said I’ve spent money on it but now it’s not even a minute before I’m out of energy with nothing to show for it. Boring. If I don’t progress soon in this game I’m deleting. Who wants to get on an app to waste all the energy within 1 minute? That’s boring. Do better to keep us entertained at least..ChermeeksVersion: 1.36.5

Started off fun, quickly turned into a buying game quickly..I downloaded this game because a couple were playing a mahjong type game on tiktok and said that a version of the game would be on this downloadable game in the App Store… I enjoyed the game at first, however, it quickly turned into one of those energy using games that require you to either buy or wait for more energy. I am constantly disappointed by todays games with ads and always being asked to buy unnecessary items just to enjoy a game. The matching game feels like it is never ending and like I’m not making any progress because I’m not spending $5 or so dollars to progress further. Games like this belong in the trash. Sorry not sorry, deleting now..Dsh639Version: 1.38.0

Waste of timeI have a handful of other merge games I play. This game looks like it could be fun. However, I played for about 5-10 minutes before I ran out of moves that I would have to use gems to refill (no refills with watching ads). The game wastes your energy. At one point I had a bag that gave both sunglasses and earrings- I had an order for earrings that would’ve needed 8 of the base earring. I went through over 125 taps on the bag just to get 2! Sunglasses galore. At that point it had drained my energy and I would’ve had to pay to get gems (you only get 20 at the start) to get more. The only highlight I have for the game is that it didn’t make you sit through the tutorials and story - you could skip through those easily..SnoeatrVersion: 1.12.0

Too hard without spending $$I’m not one to review but this game gets boring and frustrating at higher levels unless you spend a lot of money to buy diamonds. It becomes very hard to fill customer orders because it’s all the “odd” or not main items that cover the board. (If that makes sense) Lemons are hard to come by. Paint brushes are hard to come by. And its always some fancy lemonade drink or easel that is needed to complete orders!! Not to mention how much energy olives and wreaths take!! Why so much?? It is taking me days and days to fill one order without spending money on this game. I’m deleting today. It’s become impossible and boring. FYI-I’m on level 43 and can’t complete orders for more tool boxes. Completely stalled..Aunt kimmie 12Version: 1.13.0

Poor GenerationI gave this a few weeks and have discovered that items that generate are quickly useless as you work up to new generators. The new items that generate use much more energy and now to make one order to give customers I go through 300 to 400 units of energy and you use gems to buy energy at 100 increments. This means you quickly go through your gems and unless you want to wait for 12 to 24 hours you are spending money daily for gems. I do spend money on games I play but not at the rate this game takes. Add in the dull story line and that there are other much better merge games, makes this game a poor investment for me..Hate annoying ads.Version: 1.28.0

Too much and too littleThe store itself is boring and the buildings you build as you advance in the game are visually unappealing. As far as the merge part of the game there is too much variety all at once. Certain generators produce more than one object and you can only get one of those objects for every 100 or so of the other. Sometimes you end up deleting objects it took hundreds of energy to create simply because you don’t have any space and have no choice. I do like that the energy box can sometimes come with close to 200 energy if your lucky but it’s pretty much the wasted considering what I’ve already said about the game..ElleWoodsEasyVersion: 1.26.0

Eh!I thought this was going to be the tile game that you see on TikTok but it’s not. It’s a story building game, you have to merge items to make other items. That’s not the bad part, the bad part is, what if you fill your game board? Mine is full and I’m not purchasing anything from games that you’re supposed to be able to play for free. And the concept that got me to even download the game was shady at best. But now I can’t even play anymore because the game board is full! So I think I’ll be deleting this game. If you can’t go forward and you can’t go back, what’s the use. It’s a shame, because it could have been a good game, oh well..MyBunnygirlVersion: 1.36.5

Fake Advertisement?I got the game to play that cube game but its just a merging game. How can i play the block game?.Not_york7Version: 1.36.0

False advertisementI download the game thinking I was going to play the cube game… I’m disappointed..HayumuVersion: 1.38.0

Rip OffWhen I had first downloaded this game I loved it and was having so much fun playing but then I stared hating in. Reason being is because they have the Rowans scrap book where you can finished orders and get pieces from the scrapbook and once you’ve collected all the pieces you’ll get a prize…..I had only 10 pieces left to collect and even bought more energy to get the pieces but no matter how many orders I completed with the star, I kept getting duplicate pieces. I collected the scrap book 5 times in a row and all the pieces were duplicated and I don’t think that fair, hoping y’all can fix that..ShanShay09Version: 1.37.0

Not right addNot the the adds said it is..James BrowneVersion: 1.38.0

Problematic adsI downloaded game just to complain about the ads for this game which for some reason need to include characters commuting child abuse, child abandonment, spousal abuse and abandonment and women and children freezing to death. I don’t know why an ad for this type of game needs to include these..Walker designsVersion: 1.38.0

DON’T WAIST YOUR TIME - FAKE REVIEWS- DON’T TRUSTNot the game I thought I would get… it’s impossible to play the cube game and they give fake excuses to people who call them out on this..PPPP NNNNVersion: 1.40.0

Too greedyOnce you reach higher levels, the game is impossible to play without having to spend real money on it. It’s very frustrating because the amount of energy you get at a time is not nearly enough to complete orders..Elisha887Version: 1.39.0

OVERCHARGING CONSTANTLYI love the game don’t get me wrong but please tell me why I pay for the $10.99 upgrade I instantly get charged $27.00?? Even with Currency exchange that doesn’t make sense!.AshleyGG91Version: 1.39.0

No challengeEndless tasks to max level items just to burn energy and fill the board with trash. At least include some variety.Ashlinn28Version: 1.38.0

PfftBought a gem pack and was charged for it, but I didn’t receive the gems, I’ve been playing this game for months and genuinely loved it but this is TERRIBLE. I can’t seem to get assistance to receive the stuff I paid for, they just took my $ and that’s it. I refuse to play this again and I DO NOT recommend spending any money on it. What a scam..MmaannduhhhhhVersion: 1.34.7
