Something different but still relaxing
06/08/2025

Its actually not like the adds, but I still like it. Some people said that you cannot play without paying - that’s not true. Most of the time I’m playing for free and it’s without adds. Of course if you want to play more that a few times in a day, you have to pay. But if it’s your daily few minutes of relax, than it’s free.

2048 merge quest dropped

I have never before gotten a quest for anything above a lvl 11 item. Lvl 11 means 2^10 items need to be merged to reach it. Without paying, clearing such a quest takes a few days. Today, a lvl 12 quest dropped for me. If this will happen again, I’m quitting the game. Getting a quest that requires 2048 (=2^11) items to be merged is unacceptable. For reference, you get 1 energy for a lvl 1 item every 2 minutes. So you’d have to be regularly online every 200 minutes for 2.84 days, without sleep, just to clear that one quest without spending premium items. This one quest will then give you 2 review points. The game is currently giving me weekly quests to collect hundreds of review points per week. This is getting ridiculous.Edit: more of these quests dropped. I have been paying for $1 or $5 or similar packages weekly, but this is such an obvious money milking attempt that I simply won’t pay any more real money to play until gameplay returns to normal attainable targets.If this is not fixed soon, I’m deleting the game.Edit: It happened multiple times now. I have been buying $1 or $5 packages weekly because the game is milking money and there’s a weekly quest to pay real money, but since the goals have become unattainable even when paying reasonable amount, I will not be paying any more real money until game resets to normal goals.

The game has potential, but they ruined it with unattainable internal currencies.

The game is bingeable, but with each level they cut more and more on actual chance to enjoy the game. With requiring more and more time to wait for every single thing to unlock so you can keep playing, with cutting resources, like gems, energy slots, coins, and giving unattainable challenges to earn those. After day two of playing I just deleted it, because unless you’re filthy rich and ready to invest a ton of real money into this , just so you can keep playing, I say the game isn’t worth it. There is a potential with this game, it’s fun and bingeable as I mentioned, but the developers greed ruined it.
