Match 3 Game - Fiends Stars Reviews

by CbusJebus

I love this game and the original as well and would recommend it to everyone for its ease to learn but difficulty to master, kid friendly but still challenging appeal. But after the update on July 3rd my game has stopped working all together. It will load and fill the progress bars and even bring up the menu asking you to connect to social media and the play option. But at this point it all stops and stays on the background with nothing else and won’t go any further. Please fix this issue !!!!! I need my Fiends fix

What is going on with this game? The last update is just awful. The developers tout “Three Brand New Event Types” However not everyone gets these events. When some players on my Team started discussing the events, it became clear that only a few had each event, and different players were required to complete much harder tasks (some only had to complete 18 levels, others 30, or 65). The developers’ response to my questions about this issue was ridiculous. Telling a top player not to worry about it is idiotic. Do your beta testing before touting the events. You’ve irritated everyone on my team.

I have never made a purchase on any game site. I decided for the first time to purchase a gold pack on this game site. The pack has never loaded to my rewards. When they show the advertisement for “West Game” it freezes the screen. So far I have not been able to log to extra gold on several occasions, and several times for extra bombs. Not sure what is going on but they charged my card for the purchase I never got. I have really enjoyed this but it is getting more & more frustrating getting locked out and loosing rewards. I would like to get the purchase I made.

I’ve been playing this game quite awhile and the number of “opportunities” to watch ads is borderline insulting but the worst part is when you do chose to watch an ad they are often LONG and pretend to be news or “articles”. The ads are often difficult to get out of as they are multi-part. A very sad decline for a once charming series. I was a big fan of the original Best Fiends and do enjoy the levels in this but will delete this version and no longer play any further games in the series.

Got up to level 160 and guess what? After dozens of attempts, it became clear this level, like many before it, cannot be won without boosters. You run out of boosters, you buy them with coins, you run out of coins, you spend real money for more. I appreciate that they can’t just give these games away, but I have already put well more than $100 in this game. And now it seems I cannot progress without throwing more money at it. I guess I will use up the boosters I have bought and then buh bye. Cute game but too expensive for me. These are tough times.

I have been playing this game for a long time. I love it. It helps me to unwind twice a day. It provides a challenging way to empty my mind of the day’s activities. The graphics are great, the puzzles are enjoyable, and the characters are very cute.

I do have a couple of complaints. The last update was awful. The levels went from challenging to hard. I am using 15-20 lives to beat a regular level. Let’s not mention any level with a hard rating. This is very frustrating instead of relaxing! Also, the bake shop is a joke. There has to be a better way to obtain ingredients! Waiting forever to get a rare ingredient is absurd. Then for some things you need more than one rare ingredient. This makes advancing more than just a friendly challenge. I cannot wait until the baking is done and taken off! It is way more frustrating than fun.

Over all I have enjoyed this game. I will keep it for now to see if it gets better but it will not be my go to game anymore.

I’ve played a great deal of both Best Fiends and Best Fiends Forever and I was interested in this game. So far you don’t seem to be able to replay levels that you have beaten which it a major change for the worse compared to the original. This leaves you with no way to go back and grind for stars or just practice when you’re up against a tough level and it makes the stamina element feel much more stifling and pay to win.

I also don’t like that you can’t choose your fiends before facing a level- it removes some of the strategy. Where the original game was able to differentiate itself from other matching games, this one just feels like another Candy Crush clone.

I find it difficult to enjoy this game to its max because without Facebook I miss out on so many rewards. This game is just another example of how social media controls every corner of most people’s lives. I will likely delete this game like I have so many because I can neither afford the ridiculous amount of money you people want to store coins I’ve ALREADY EARNED!!!! Or the stress of social media. Sadly this game is just like all the others.....

by Pamizzle78

I love playing this game, but I have to wait for new levels every week and I’m done with the new levels and back to the “star league” within a day. Then I spend 6 days replaying the same levels over and over and over again. That, on top of how expensive you’ve made your in-app purchases, the game is losing its appeal. I think your last price increase was really excessive. The game isn’t worth it anymore.

by IOS-user-8

Visually it looks & plays very similar to the original game, however I have 2 main complaints:

(1)Players are currently unable to replay stages....This is tied into the next problem.

(2)Team Chests: A great but flawed idea because you can only make progress on slugs killed(Towards boosting the chest) when you clear levels....very early in the game you will hit a wall(Need more turns for Gold)

Overall, I do like the game simply for the added “Team” features.

It is a shame too, because this game has great potential...currently though, it just makes me want to play the old game instead 😅

Developers, please read this, because I can guarantee I am not the only person with these compaints.

Lastly a suggestion:

Consider adding a Discord server for the game or a forum(Yes, I will play the game, but I am put off by the sloppy way the Team Chests are Currently handled)

Here’s hoping you read this & make some tweaks-changes....(Would I recommend the game? Yes, but cautiously)

Fix these issues, & I will rate. 5 stars 😉

I really enjoyed this game from the moment I started playing I played the older game best fiends first. And I personally think it was much better. The purpose of this game was to make another version of best fiends but with baby animals. I feel like that’s not a good enough reason for it to be an Individual game. If I managed this game I would make best fiend stars a side adventure to the original game. Like after you beat all the existing levels in the old game it will do a timeskip and make all the characters the old best fiend’s descendants I think that it would be a much better way to include this game. If you are thinking of downloading this I would just download the older game instead and not get best fiends stars. Hate to say it but If you have already experienced the old game you know what seriously is capable of. I’m a bit disappointed

I just want to start this review by saying this: i live this game. Like this game is super fun and addicting, the graphics are really colorful and you just feel happier when you think of it. The inky thing I will say is I think Match3Game is wayyyy to shiver down peoples throats, like I like playing the game and I think it’s fun. But I dint think it’s fun enough for literally every single YouTuber has been sponsored by it. I think way more people would like it if you guys softened the marketing. I didn’t want to buy it for the longest time because I felt as if it was just annoying I kept seeing adds for it

I love Match3Game! And this is an honest review, i think the only thing im not a big fan of, is eventually some piggy bank comes and start collecting all the coins youre supposed to be earning, and then it makes you pay for them to get back, and if you dont pay then it keeps all the coins, the only other way to collect coins is to watch adds or earn them out of chests, you cant win them from the levels them selves after that. But other than that, I'm on level 100 and its very entertaining!

by Talk Nice Review

This is a fun app for kids and adults. It really helps me think about where to move and how. I like how people can can unlock new creatures and their ability’s. For example, one of the greens can generate the 2 arrows ➡️
➡️. Also,you can use the accessories to help you win. But one thing I hate is it don’t give you coins a lot only when you get the chest and wheel. I think we should get coins as a daily reward and everytime you unlock a creature or even while you’re playing a round. That’s my feedback.

by Cbarbosa79

I love this game and it is very addicting! I have gotten quite far. The only thing I don’t like since the update is the star league. It’s a good way to earn coins but you have to replay levels you have already beaten. It goes on for like 5 days. I personally would just like to continue on to new levels. Otherwise it’s great!

by Cooldragonnick

Star is like thousand time better then the old one best fiends and it was much easier then I thought. Right when I play this game I was like “this will be just like best fiends” until I play few games and it really blow my mind of into space like I never seen anything like this as for what I said “this really make my day”

by Sookie Reborn

I love the beautiful & cute graphics and challenges in this game! This game challenges you to think harder and smarter. If you lose a round of playing, you can determine what you should do to make your next attempt successful to win and move on to the next round. Once you become familiar with tools (bombs, block hammers, horizontal & vertical rockets, and especially salt shakers), you can improve your game and move up to the next level.

My favorite game, the only one I’ve ever spend money on.
My problem is on one of the levels I paid to play on not once but three times and I activated the box all three times and it wouldn’t blow up the dynamite. I used up all those coins for nothing!!! Not to mention I’ve been stuck on it for at least 7 or more times so when I literally only needed to blow up one more dynamite I played on only to get cheated.

by Great Red One

It’s a fun game, lots of action and win-able without spending money but it’s a lot easier with it rocket and weight line of boosters. Fast moving fun fiends as they evolve, great color and graphics.
Only one complaint the bomb boosters inevitably are positioned that they explode each other out of the game on the first move. Positioning them separate on the board would make them more valuable.

by Trix Ter

Love Best Fiends too but Stars is even better. Love the teams feature. Building a great team and interacting with team members adds a lot of fun. The graphics are great! The levels have some really cool elements to them with moving components. Great job, Seriously!! Just please write more instructions for us, especially regarding the teams. It would save us from having to get support tickets but we do get great help from Support when needed.
