Tomb of the Mask Reviews

This games is really, really addictive. I have very minimum space on my phone and I decided to try TomboftheMask out. I deleted it (due to amount of space it took up) but then quickly regretted my decision. Very addictive game. The only problem(s) I experience are the ads. After I complete a stage, an add pops up and they are usually 30 seconds - a minute long. This gets frustrating because I can glide through the stages in under a minute. This really is frustrating. Another problem are the lives. When I'm playing a stage and fail, I loose a life. I would play the game more, but loosing a life every other stage or so, takes all my lives away in under 10 minutes. I just wish that we didn't need to rely on the lives. My last problem that I have experienced are the power-ups. For example, during the tutorial, the directions say to double tap the screen or tap the shield in the bottom left corner. Sometimes I go to fast and accidentally double tap, therefore wasting my shield when I didn't need to. The double tap is a pretty good idea, but not for a game like this where you may accidentally double tap. This game is really, really, really fun and addictive (quite literally) and I hope all the problems get sorted out to make this the dopest game of the year.

The game itself is fun, I like the movement, the traps, the sounds, the Pac-Man-esque style, but I have a few problems with it. For one, after around level 100, there are a few challenging levels, but pretty much from then on every level was repetitive and too easy. I preferred the challenge rather than just flying through level after level, putting limits on myself or else I would beat it too fast. Another problem is the ads: I know it’s how you make your money but showing an ad after literally every game is excessive. I watched some videos to open chests (because that’s pretty much the only way to finish the “open X chests” challenges without waiting for days on end) so having more ads on top of that is annoying. Finally I have issue with the “diamond membership” that you and a bunch of other games have been offering lately. $7.99 a WEEK for what, 4 masks you’ll never use, 400 coins per day, and no ads, which on any other game would cost like $3.99 once? Do you really think this game offers almost 4 times as much value as, say, Netflix, which charges like $9 a month? I would pay $7.99 ONCE for these things, maybe. I bet you offer the 3-day free trial so people sign up for it and forget to cancel, too.

Having finished all the levels, I can say all in all that this is a fun game that could have been better executed if more effort was put into the levels and it weren’t muddled by greed.

I rated this three stars because it is to easy it is hard to understand the concept of It being this easy so I feel that the screen needs to be a little tougher maybe not you are not too easy maybe like just right for kids 12+ something is for kids 12+ it should be harder for the older kids in the younger kids so saying this I feel that it should ask you for your age and then based off of the age make it just right for that age so like if you’re 12 it should be hard if you’re up 4 it should be easy It should be based off their age because it’s just right for that age and they should be able to change your aid my a it should be based off the age because it’s just right for that age and they should be able to change The age of the person gets older like I’m 11 so it should be harder for me than a four-year-old and then like if you’re 12 it should be harder than a five-year-old so based off whether you’re 12 11 or10 whatever you should be able to change your age that way if you’re four and then you turn 10 within six years then that age should be hard enough like just rain but not harder than it should but this is too easy for me being an 11-year-old so I’m just saying that it should I ask for the age also parents just so you know this game has certain add to it I’ve seen that are age-appropriate starting from the age 8+ year-olds so just make sure that you know that the ad can be inappropriate

I love this game and I got it only 3 weeks ago and have gotten half of the masks and beaten all of the campaign levels. Now here’s my question... Is there any way to make a level editor? I’m probably not the only one to have asked for this but am definitely one of the most enthusiastic for this to (hopefully) come. If there was an editor I would definitely consider buying the Diamond Membership and would enjoy the game much more. I would also share the game to all of my friends and recommend it to anyone I know. Now I understand if you guys will ever add this that it will take some time (2-3 weeks dependent on how many people are working on this add-on) and I will be very patient in waiting. Please, if anyone in the Playgendary team could get back to me, I would love to inform you on what else I would like added because I can see a very big change (better version) of this game to come. All you guys would need to do is to make a server capable of handling millions of people uploading their own levels... not that hard right??? Well that’s all for now, thanks for making this stupendous game!

(As a side note please add all the fractures that are currently in the levels. My favorite of them is either the rotation of 90 degrees or the blocks that appear after having been touched.)

Even if you get the game for free and don’t buy anything, like I did, the game always has ways for you to keep playing. It’s like pac-man but with traps set up. Every level is genius in it’s design and never lets go of that sweet retro nostalgia. I highly recommend this game to anyone to at least try and see if they like it. While writing this review, I don’t know if it was a new update or something, but when I first played this game there were relentless ads. They popped any time you completed a level, you died, or if you played a level. Now, when you play, ads only pop up if you want a second life in the level. They also pop up for chests (a spinning wheel that gives you coins and unlockables) and energy (if you run out of energy you have to come back and play later.) If it wasn’t for this ad reduction, my whole rating would have dropped a couple of stars. THIS GAME USES A SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE FOR THE FULL EXPERIENCE. I usually don’t usually sign up for monthly subscriptions unless I REALLY need to, but as I said, you don’t need to sign up to have fun. There’s a LOT of levels, I don’t know exactly how many, but there is a LOT. That’s that, I love this game it reminds of those times as a kid playing games that felt similar to this one, have fun!

Ok I love this game! It’s fun to play in my spare time and gets me that adrenaline rush I need. But there is a few things I noticed that annoying me. For starters, the time between traps going off is too short in MY opinion. Sometimes I’ll be trying to get through a level and ( I think I have enough time ) I get hit with a trap, just saying you don’t have to do anything about this but it would be nice if you would. Second, the lasting time for the power ups, I think it’s not as long as it should be because I always run out of time before I can use my power up, for instance the shield. Like I said before, you don’t have to do anything about it but it would be nice if you did. Last but not least, the rising thing at the bottom, in MY opinion it moves to fast I know when I first started playing it got me a bunch of times. Say what if you missed a dot? And you went back to get it? You would get caught by the rising thing.

Anyway~ I love your game and hope you keep making this one better. You don’t have to do anything that I mentioned but you can if you would like. Thank you for reading and I hope you have a blessed day.

This game is a lot of fun. It has a great art style and I have thoroughly enjoyed playing it, however that doesn’t excuse it from the two major flaws it has. The first major flaw is the ads. It shoves ads down your throat every chance it gets, and it gets really annoying. I’ve gotten to the point where I turn on airplane mode just to be able to avoid them. The second major flaw is the membership program the game has. I’ve never seen anything like it in a smartphone game and it kinda scares me. The game allows you to pay 7.99 for 4 masks (in-game skins), 500 coins per day, and unlimited energy all of which, in my opinion, should be free. The membership program really doesn’t offer anything substantial and has no use of being in the game, it’s just blocking you from things that should already be included in the game, plus, the price is just absurd. Paying 8 dollars a week for something that gives you a few items that should naturally be in the game is just awful business practice and shows that most companies don’t care about the consumer anymore. This game is lots of fun and I would definitely give it 4 stars if the developers showed they cared about the consumer and didn’t have these awful, greedy, practices within their game. The saddest part about this though is that everybody just gobbles this game up and gives it a perfect rating, not even noticing what’s going on with the game.

This is a great game with adventurous levels. Though there are many complications while playing. These include that when playing a level, if a gamer would be needing to swipe quickly the they would receive problems. One is that while the gamer was swiping, sometimes, the game understand that they were swiping at a different direction. This causes the player to either continue by watching an ad, pay game coins, or restart the game. Another swiping problem is how when a player swipes quickly, the game could understand that they are double tapping. This results in putting the shield on, which wastes it for when the gamer could need it. Another problem is also how every two hundred levels, the game would say “NEW ADVENTURES

ARE COMING”. This causes the player to wait until the new levels come. Though new levels are coming, like other games the Tomb of the Mask game developers should be working on new levels every day; since gamers finish levels quickly. Though this game has many complications and frustrations, it also has it’s joys. The levels are adventurous, and make the player work harder on each one. Though in between the harder levels the game gives players a little break by adding a few easier levels.

This style of game has always been one I’ve been attracted towards. It plays beautifully, it was developed flawlessly, and it’s incredibly fun to get into the zone with this masterpiece. Though it plays well, it’s just like every other cheaply made mobile game. Advertisements aren’t a problem, one every once in a while is ok, it’s how developers get pain, I think everyone can respect that. But there was once a time when a quality game was shown before you even click on TomboftheMask in the AppStore, it was an app that showed $4.99 instead of get. I would without hesitation spend five dollars on a mobile game if it had a trailer that looked as cool as the gameplay from this game, but this game was taken a different direction, the kind where you need to subscribe to a monthly plan just to get the few benefits the game offered. This game is amazing. I even once was in a video game design class and remade this game for my final, (I passed with flying colors). If the developers are going to read this, or anyone working on this game at all, please consider making this a game on steam with a story, or even just making people pay a flat fee like in 2010. All of my favorite mobile games were from then, and the potential is gushing out of this game. Thank you for creating this amazingly fast and colorful game, and I hope this helps start something even cooler. :)

I absolutely love this game. It’s one of my favorite mobile apps so far. The fast paced movement, combined with the skillful dodging of obstacles and collection of dots, makes it a fun platformer. One of the only flaws with the game, however, is a deal breaker: the ads.

Now, I know free apps have to run adverts in order to stay afloat. I get that. But the frequency at which ads are shown are a bit overkill. Here’s an example: at the end of a level, you’re given an option to watch a video ad to earn a free chest. Now, if you take this offer, you’re given the item and sent on your way. But if you pass and just tap ‘next stage’... it shows you an ad anyway. This is a bit ridiculous in my opinion, especially since this means you have to watch an ad after EVERY LEVEL. And the “diamond membership” is downright predatory. $8 a WEEK?! That’s $24 a month, just for a few masks and other superficial benefits. This, along with other IAPs, are shown suddenly, without warning in places where you’re just tapping through the menus to start a level; this makes it extremely easy to accidentally confirm to purchase one of these IAPs, another shady practice.

All in all, great game, but the way the developers handle adverts and IAPs is pretty anti-consumer.

I would have gave it a 5-star review but I can’t play with all the adds I know that it’s a free game but how do you make a add ON EVERY LEVEL it’s just stupidly time wasting I mean playing it is SUPER FUN but really? Cmon guys I have been playing it for an hour and it’s really really fun but I can’t even play it bc I only get 5 try’s or you can’t play for a hole day not just that if you want to go to your home menu there’s a add if you die in the game there’s a add if you want to just restart there is a add I just don’t understand like I said I know it’s a free game but all the time it’s a add more and more adds you put the more I want to delete the game but when I delete it I want to play it then when I want to play it there’s a add and I’m not paying 2:99 just for no add like really you guys really need that much money really that’s so unseasonably because when you put that much adds do you really need that much but all I’m saying is PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE AT LEAST PLAY (or die) THREE TIMES BEFOR A ADD but I LOVE THE GAME and I think that it’s really cool that you put puzzles in the game well thank you for reading please fix it good bye -Isaac

I personally loved this game. It was nice and the levels are good and fun. It took me a very long time to get to fifty, and I’m still getting to 100. As nice as this game is, I hate about half of it. Why? Because the ads are just plain stupid, annoying, and costly. Every tie. You die, or complete a Level, you go into an ad. Immediately. It’s stupid and that’s not it. Every time I go into TomboftheMask it shows the title screen. Then immediately and ad for a fishing game pops up and I accidentally click on it. This game is not even using a clever strategy to get you to buy games, it is just plainly trying to get you to click on them by accident. After I click on the ad, nothing happens. Until I get into a level. Then while I’m PLAYING the level, the fishing game’s AppStore page pops up. Not only is it late, it has costed me so many lives it’s unbelievable. I’m still not done. Then it is the costly in-game prices. Not gonna lie, 8$ a week is the most stupidest, frustrating, outrageous thing I will ever see. Or maybe not. Then, in order to stop seeing ads about every 15 seconds, I have to pay 20 something dollars, MONTLY!!!!!! I have seen no ad purchases on other games. They are ranging from 5-8 dollars. Overall, I like this game, but all this side nonsense makes it have a 3-star rating

I think you should fix one thing it’s an app purchases it doesn’t let people fully get to know the game and it disappoints me to see how I can get things I want but it’s not possible I cannot get those opportunities I should get one playing the game and The second thing is the lead on this speaker trying to re-create sometimes gets hard for little kids trying to play like 879 all those that range and they don’t know how to do it keep trying and trying but the problem is the lives I think 5 lives is way too little and show make more lives like six lives or even seven the force that you need to fix is very important it’s how the game is made and it’s not because the Internet but it’s because of how you make it I’m actually thinking you’re trying to make people pay you up did you know that people get credit card bills for everything you buy and you are making them add more and more money also impossible to pay that back so I hope you’re able to fix the problem there’s more but since I am a kind hearted nine-year-old I will not say anymore but change those sold more and more people can come into your game and be happier. bye,

There are way to many adds witch makes it harder and all the adds are games or apps I have and the adds give me headaches but I love the game it is very fun and addictive and I cannot stop playing but the adds are the things that make me want to stop playing it’s just really annoying to have an ad pop up right after you die it’s getting annoying, sometimes I hope and hope that I won’t get an ad but it never works but like I said I love the game and recommend more people to play but please get rid of all the ads yea I know you can by the get rid of ads thing but you have to pay money and so people like me don’t wanna waste money on a game just to get rid of ads I hate when I have to do that. So please get rid of the ads and all of the glitches and stuff but I still really love TomboftheMask and I hope more people play this game, also one more thing that I dislike and get a bit stressed is that you have like moves or a certain amount of time and I hate how you have to wait 28 or more minutes just to get one more move! Also my adds to refill the moves won’t work and I wait 20 or so minutes JUST TO GET ONE MORE MOVE! But like I said 100 times I love this game very much 👌👌👌.

Hands down best mobile game I’ve ever played. It strikes the perfect balance between games you can quickly pick up and play and games with some real depth and content. In an era where hyper casual is dominating the market this game offers a breath of fresh air and breaks the mold from other games in the genre. There is some real depth and thought and challenge to this game that is unmatched. I’m rating the game 5 stars for the amazing and addictive gameplay. Overall the game is not without its flaws like the annoying music and SFx but I just mute the audio. Also, the ads are a nightmare. An ad after everything you see or do. And a subscription model to remove ads? These guys sure know how to make money. If it was any other game I’d have deleted it by now without a standard option to remove ads for $$0.99 or something, but because the core gameplay is so good I still rate it 5 stars. Don’t rate a game bad simply cause it has an annoying monetary system. Rate a game for what the game is and if you do that then this deserves 5 stars. Thanks devs for putting in the effort to make something truly great!

I love this game ! I’ve been having it since last year . The only thing that ruins it is the ads . I understand that you put ads for money but there is a limit . Like come on the players want to play not watch ads ! Oh and you know the ads you watch to revive and stuff .. yeah those really aren’t it . There is this one specific one that is about 40 seconds long . Almost a whole minute ! And sometimes when I watch the ads to revive it makes me watch like a 30 second ad and then it doesn’t revive me . And I’ve been reading the reviews and almost everyone complains about the ads but no one is talking about that one ad on the bottom when you actually play . Sometimes when I try to scroll down I accidentally click on it and it brings me to TomboftheMask Store or some website . Then when I go back to the game I die right away . It’s so annoying and that ad should go . But besides everything I’ve been compiling about the game is really good . I’m in level 227 and it’s really hard . Hope to pass it soon !

Okay so this is a very incredible game, I’d just wish for you to not like have so many ads? If that’s the word? It makes me feel like School was then.. But now we’re in quarantine, But anyways! I know games make ads to get money and all that and you need the money right!? But this is a very awesome game! This definitely belongs in an Arcade! If it isn’t already, I’d also love to play this game on my birthday with all my friends! I just got a load of new apps and this is one of the few that downloaded, And I love playing this when I’m grumpy and don’t like doing anything else if you know what I mean, But I also play it when I have free time! From Walking the dog, Playing with the dogs, Feeding the dogs, And other stuff! But after all this is a game most people can’t finish! And that’s something people like in games! But some people like to complete them! I don’t really care tho, But anyways! Just wanted to say all of this in my free time! I will continue playing this game! And just love typing! And yeah!

It’s a fun game but 1st of all when I spin the wheel it most of the time gives you only 25 coins even if it’s about to land on the 200 coins. 2nd all there are too many adds, I’m not a game creator or someone who uses adds but I assume the more adds your players watch the more money you get but there are just way to many adds there is an add sometimes when I open TomboftheMask there is an add to open a chest or get coins which I understand. When you get on to a new level or finish the level there will be adds that pop up or just randomly and it is really annoying. 3rd of all it takes 30 minutes to get 1 life and I think that is unfair. If you want us to play and enjoy playing your game you should at least give less time to get a life so we would actually get to play the game instead of playing and losing then waiting to get full lives or just some lives and again. Another thing there is only a maximum of 5 lives and when we lose them all we have to wait we don’t get any more than that. I really enjoy this game but everything that I listed. I really hope some of these get fixed because they need to be.

TOM is overall an amazing game! Arcade/endless mode and story mode are well put together, even though story mode isn't really a story, just levels. I like the colors, different masks, and how there's many enemies in game! There's even challenges to complete which I love doing.

Here are some of the flaws I've seen however. There's an ad every two levels in story mode?? Very frustrating. Masks are very hard to get considering how much coins they are, and most of the only work in arcade mode. Every revival is 200 coins, and everything past level 27 is like hard mode. Waste of coins! And the ads, glitch almost everytime they come up, and are low quality+very odd or sexual. 😭

But this is my preferred game and time killer! I love it and play it everyday when I'm bored (I get bored VERY often.) I like to play this and always check what challenges I need to do since y'know, revivals and masks are pricey. Download this game if you're looking for one that works offline and so you can be distracted. Happy playing!!

This game follows a trend of mobile games these days where they barrage you with ads and shove ads down your throat and force-feed you ads constantly unless you pay them 8 dollars A WEEK for a “premium membership”. This is a minuscule phone game with one primary fundamental game function, which is swiping. Sit down, game, you are not the Church and you can’t steal money from people that easily. This game does not deserve Editor’s Choice. Remember when Lite games existed, or even just free games in general that didn’t have the most obstructive ads you could possibly imagine? Why not have a bar at the bottom of the screen that displays ads? Why do you have to absolutely annihilate the player every single level with an unskippable ad? Mobile games these days are absolute garbage. It’s a shame, because this game could have been fun if I wasn’t being incessantly fed the most annoying ads of the century. Better yet, you could just make this game what… a buck? 2 bucks? And not lure kids playing this game into paying 8 dollars a WEEK for a membership in a MOBILE GAME? It’s sad how far mobile games have sunk. Every developer is a cash-grabbing greedy fiend these days. Trash. If you don’t particularly like to play a game that’s more ad than game, I would suggest not picking this piece of trash up. Save yourself the hassle.
