2 For 2 Reviews

I’ve had this game on my phone for a few months now and when I got it, it had ONE game setting. That was it. And the games would always save even when you closed 2For2 , so each time I went back on I was still able to continue my game without it being cancelled. Well a few weeks ago it updated and there are all these new game modes with different boards and I only have interest in the original board so that’s what I keep playing on. I had a high score of over 400,000 and exited 2For2 to do something and when I went back on it was gone. I had to start a new game. I thought, okay, maybe that was because it went through an update so everything is just new. Well it’s happened almost every day now and each time I have a pretty high score, my whole game is compromised when I go back on I have to start brand new. I’m usually not one to complain of something and never have I left a review on an app especially a game, I would rather just delete it after something annoying me that much but I really enjoyed playing this game and it’s very irritating that all my games have repeatedly been compromised. I find it pointless to go on and start a new game when I know my potential is practically impossible to reach now when my game will be cancelled if I have to exit 2For2 at all. Would be nice to hear a response on this and for a fix to be put in place so people can stop having this happen to them.

This game is totally addicting and hard to put down once you start. The downside is that there are A LOT of ADS. Open 2For2 ....AD, level up.....AD, new game.....AD, while you are in the middle of playing....AD. I mean, I get that the ads help keep the game free, but this feels a bit excessive. On top of that, 2For2 randomly leaves 2For2 to open new windows for ads, some of which are spam and acting as if they are Apple Security, saying that my phone is infected with 6 viruses. Luckily I know not to click on those links, however someone else may not. Would enjoy the game more if the ads were reduced to a reasonable amount and maybe just in between games. Definitely needs more control on AD content.

**Update** I was contacted by the web developer quickly regarding my review and was asked for screenshots of the ads. I sent these right away. I continued to play the game for a bit, with hopes that the ad issue was being addressed. No luck. I eventually got sick of dealing with the ads and just deleted the ap. 6 months later, I’m getting another message from the developer requesting screenshots. Can’t screenshot something I don’t use. Loved the game itself, but the ads were so out of control, that I refuse to download again. Going through other reviews, I see I am not alone on this.

I used to absolutely love this game. It was low impact and relaxing, requiring you to think strategically without being overly complicated. There were ads right from the start, but they only played at the beginning and end of a game, and if you wanted to earn more stars towards using the game tools.

But now, the game gets interrupted EVERY 5 MOVES by ads. Loud, obnoxious, full screen ads for other games that you can’t bypass. It completely RUINS gameplay by interrupting both the rhythm that you need to build up to in order to advance and the relaxing ambiance of playing at all. Within exactly 2 minutes of playing, I was so thoroughly frustrated that I am deleting 2For2 . It’s no longer worth anything to me, which is a shame, because it was so enjoyable.

If there is a tactic that is more transparently designed to try and make people buy the ad-free version for $8 a month, I’ve never seen one. DON’T FALL FOR IT. Make it blow back in the faces of whoever came up with this ruinous, intrusive and completely AWFUL idea and delete 2For2 instead. You’ll be glad you did and make them sorry for valuing a cash grab tactic over player loyalty.

This has been one of my favorite games for years. One of the things I love is the ability to stop, and come back later, much much later and pick up where you left off. Game play is simple and addictive and is easy enough for a little kid to pick up, but challenging if you want to shoot for a million + score. This should be an easy 5 star, but the last update forces you to watch an add every 3 to 5 turns. This completely destroyed the flow of the game and forces you to go into airplane mode to play. Before, you got an add if you wanted to rescue a failed game, use an undue or just get some extra coins. Then to make it worse, they set up a weekly pay to play with no adds which is ridiculous. A $5.99 or maybe a $7.99 one time charge would be worth it but net 7.99 a week. Nothing in this game is worth $32 a month. It’s a shame the developers had to get greedy and ruin what was a great, fun game.

Omg I’m gonna give up on this game if I keep getting 30 second ads I can’t skip whenever I die and when I even start up the game. The ads also will pause your music which is VERY annoying and if you click the ‘X’ button in the corner after the ad 70% of the time it’ll take you to 2For2 Store because it thinks you clicked the ad which will give the company money because you clicked it. This game is a big way just to make money and I’m deleting it because of how many ads there are. On top of that you can’t buy the good skins by saving coins you have to buy them with money which is ridiculous how much they want money. OH AND GUESS WHAT! To get rid of the ads, YOU HAVE TO PAY. All these guys want is MONEY, they don’t care about gameplay or their customers, they care about MONEY. This game required almost no coding and I made the same game in unity in literally 30 minutes but with NO ads! Don’t get this game, all you do is encourage them to make more games like this with stupid in game purchases and tons of ads.

First of all, this game is amazing. You will waste will more time then you should on a game on your phone. This is probably one of the most addictive games I have ever played for phone.

Now for the bad stuff, and the reason for my three star rating. Every time you reach an achievement or end a level it will force an advertisement. The only way to avoid this is to turn off all data including Wi-Fi but even then sometimes it just hangs the game for a little while. I have not dug through to see if there is a way to get rid of the advertisements by paying a little money, but that seems to be pretty common for games like this.

The game could use a little fine-tuning mostly in that you can never really get rid of any tiles. You can combine them but you cannot get rid of them. At some point there has to be a way to stop getting 2s...

This game is legitimately the most addicting game I’ve ever played, and I’m not just saying that. It’s a combination of Lolo (which is where I found this game) and 2048. I got my boyfriend hooked on it after all our phone calls devolved into me playing “the game” nonstop instead of talking, and we are officially addicts. He was literally playing it at red lights - and he’s not normally a “game” type of guy. If anything, I would warn you not to play this if you can’t afford to lose track of time playing if you become as addicted to this as we are! I swear this isn’t sponsored, I’m just obsessed with the game. It’s challenging enough to be engaging but once you master the strategy it’s not bad! I’m almost to 2 million points after using 4 power ups and one undo.

Once you get the hang of the game, it’s quite fun. You’re basically trying to connect circles to make bigger numbers, which you can then add to other numbers of the same amount. It’s not always about the size of the streak. Sometimes you need more of the same to clear numbers.

Two things stand out: there are *way* too many ads. Everything you do that is not connecting a square (using an undo or a power up) brings up ads and not just one as, but two to three, back to back. It’s very disruptive to game play and I’ve considered deleting the game for all the extra time it costs. It would be much simpler to either offer an in app purchase or create rounds that require you to look at the ads.

This game is like 2048 except with bigger combinations. I love how I can just make big numbers and then make a absolutely huge number with those. The fact that it is WiFi free and is addictive ed makes it perfect when the rest of your games need WiFi. I love how when I downloaded this game that I was hooked and I couldn’t put it down.

There are the flaws though. I don’t like the fact that whenever you finish a round a random ad pops up and it’s and it’s a teensy bit annoying. Then the other flaw it that you CANNOT connect diagonally only horizontally and vertically. WHICK I absolutely hate. Period. That’s why this is a four star rated nit a five star. His is a good recommendation not a rude comment. Thank you for reading and thank you for agreeing with me.

I am the kind of person who gets bored of games quickly and deletes them, tries a bunch of other games, installs the original game, and starts the cycle all over again. But if you have more patience than me, this is a good game for you. It’s not particularly challenging but you can still try and get better at it. There are different game modes. My main problem, besides easily getting bored of any game, is that it has a lot of advertisements. I’m not very good at this game yet, so my average game lasts for a couple of minutes. After almost every game, an ad plays and I keep on getting the same one that lasts a couple of minutes. So I’m spending as much time watching advertisements as actually playing the game. Besides that this is a good game. I would appreciate it if there were less ads though.

I keep playing this game for little bits of time every day for 3 weeks straight. I played a a couple times until I really figured it out. Now I’m so far, that I can’t stop playing until I lose. I just got a 262k ball today and am relieved but also upset. Relieved because it’s pretty cool and I have a score over 4 million, but now it’s going to take another 3 weeks before I can get to a spot where it will be challenging again. The grind.... and no I don’t watch the adds for coins. The next power up would cost me 3200 coins I think. I mean I get 30 coins every day and a bunch from playing. Please make it stop! Lol

I was sitting there playing the game and then an ad popped up ad:1 bought an item didn't work SO I watched an as willingly to get more coins THEN STRAIGHT AFTER AD : 2 & 3 HIT MY EYEBALLS ad trap would not recommend to people who despise adds like me but would recommend to people to 1 : don't give a crap about ads and 2 : like puzzle games P.S. : why can we not go diagonally I despise that feature! P.S.S. : MAKE THE ITEMS W O R K

Edit : I know after I said the game was "good" and I "recommend" it to certain people know I think what no I'm deleting this it's a waste of space! They're just trying to get money out of me! This game is utter garbage to me seeing the other reviews agreeing with the ads it's just utter garbage knowing the people agree with that and maybe it's just my problem with the items but they're. Utter garbage too! I hope you see this 2 for 2 team and last night I must've gotten 18 ads in 5 minutes!

This game is so addictive! It’s also really easy and hard at the same time. To prove it.. I can’t beat my high score 😭. Anyway.. I seen other reviews about the AD problem. It’s not that bad! The ADs are short, or skip able. Most of them are pictures so just click the X. Sorry for talking about the ADs a lot. Just wanted to let you know. I also like this game because it’s letting you know what number your at! Here let me help you out. It’s like adding. So bring your device to school and cheat on your math test! I mean.. nothing.. Don’t do that. I took it too far lol! Thanks for reading this. It is kinda long. But try to beat my high score! Bye!!

This game started out innocent. It held my hand and guided me gently. Soon however like a baby bird propelled from the nest I was thrown into a world fear, suffering, and the searing pain of my face smacking into the ground in failure. Eventually, through my trials and errors, running into brick wall after brick wall, I finally began to question my life decisions. What is humanity? What is the need to solve every puzzle? Can I truly eat potato salad while playing this successfully (no)? After salvaging the shattered remains of my phone after yet another loss, finally I have decided to do what is best for me, and become an entrepreneur. Obviously. Thank you 2 for 2, 10/5. Would flick again.

I played 2 for 2 for a while before it’s recent updates, and I appreciate the game itself both before and after the update. However, something happened with the ads in a recent update that really takes the enjoyment away from the game. Instead of the regular side ads and occasional video clip when I start playing, which are annoying enough, I’m now being completely redirected to my web browser every 5 moves. When did this become a thing? I get that the ads are necessary to be able to make the game free, but at some point it isn’t worth playing the game anymore because, between the bombarding 30sec clips AND the redirecting ads constantly interfering the game, it’s no longer enjoyable - it’s frustrating. I’d appreciate if the ads were adjusted so that they don’t redirect me anymore, at least.

If you’re able to get over the initial leaning hump, then you’ll most likely get addicted to this game. After a few days, I found myself thinking about this game all the time, itching to play it, finding excuses to pick it up. Then it got bad. I started dreaming about the number connections. It would be the first thing I thought about when I woke up. I’d think about it when I was at work. It’s a subconscious kind of thinking about it though, so I can’t stop. Those number connections are now always happening in my brain, as the background soundtrack to my life. I’m going to have to stop. But...after this weekend.

I was never a fan of candy crush. The mindless pairing of colors seemed like it would burn brain cells or my brain’s production of dopamine. That’s why I was excited to find this game. It’s like making candy crush smart! I have to think ahead and strategize my moves much more. And I get to easily improve my math skills. Nice job!

Oh, and I read a review complaining about the game resetting. Looks like they fixed that because it doesn’t reset for me. I had a 49,000 score and I forgot all about until I logged in the next day and the game asked me if I wanted to continue my game. Sure! Thanks developers! I’m enjoying this game!

Look, I appreciate that devs build apps to make money. Ironically, I picked up this game because I had so much fun playing it in an ad for another game.

I played this game for a total of two minutes and had a great time, but I was served two ads in the middle of play. I didn’t die, nothing went wrong, I got an ad per minute while I was strategizing. Broke my concentration, killed my enjoyment. The game was immediately uninstalled and won’t be coming back.

To remove ads is evidently a WEEKLY charge of $7.99. That’s over 30 bucks a month just to enjoy a puzzle game. That’s like two streaming video subscriptions. Remember when games cost 5 bucks tops, and you owned it forever? I miss those days. And I’ll stick to games from that era because they’re still fun and I can still buy gas.

I gave three stars because the game is legitimately enjoyable. But not enjoyable enough to endure the ads, by a long shot. Make a buy-it-once-and-own-it version, and I’ll be the first in line. Charge me 20 bucks if you have to. I’d probably pay it because the game is great. But this nickel-and-dime subscription BS will not stand.

I just downloaded this game and paid the extra for no ads. It worked until I quit playing the game. The next time I played the game I got so many ads that more than 1/2 the time I played had ads. I do not think paying for no ads each time you play is user-friendly. I like the game but can’t play due to all the pop-up ads (I paid extra to not get them.) Very frustrating. The ad issue has resolved but now when you get the times up to 2K or above you cannot get the bonus points/coins. I can never get the 4K or 8k bonus. Not happy about this. The game is addictive.

When I first started playing this game, I loved it, but I thought the ads were too much. But over time, I got used to it. BUT recently, you are forced to watch an ad for no extra coins. The developers have taken ads to the ridiculous level. They have taken the fun out of this otherwise fun game. I love trying to beat me high score, which I don’t don’t very often, as I have a decent high score. I’m going to stop playing it for a while. When I attempt it again, if it forces ads just for breathing, I’m going to delete 2For2. Which is sad, it really is a fun game!!!

After writing this review, I checked other most recent reviews. I see that I am not alone on my criticism of tons of ads!

Well, I waited a bit and tried it again and still there are ads just for breathing. I waited an even longer time and the problem is still there. So, though I love 2For2, I’m deleting it. The developers have ruined a fun game by increasing the amount of ads to an insane level. But lots of people are saying this. Either they’re not understanding all of these reviews written in English or they just don’t care!!!

So, bye-bye to one of my favorite apps. It was nice knowing you, but not lately!
