Homematch Reviews

I was really excited to download this game because the reviews said it wasn’t a pay-to-play design game. Unfortunately that doesn’t seem to be the case. 95% of the game is playing a candycrush-like game to win coins that you need to pay for the design challenges. Although the candycrush-like game is fun, it’s extremely challenging so the effort it takes to win coins to be able to design a room takes up a significant amount of time. Prepare to mostly play the candycrush-like game 95% of the time and actually designing 5%. One design level took me about a week to earn enough coins to actually design a room. You can do that or pay real $ to play. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Update: I deleted the game for good. Support was non-existent. They finally replied once after several emails, only to tell me to unload/reload the game, which did not work. They did not reply to any of my emails when I advised that it did not resolve the problem. Don’t waste your time or money.

I’ve been playing for awhile (level 155) but started experiencing problems a couple weeks ago. The Career rooms won’t load, saying my internet is down. It is NOT my internet. All other apps work, and when available, the Challenge rooms open, just not the Career rooms so it’s obviously internal. I’ve written to support three times and have had NO response. I’ve read other reviews here and when they receive a response, it’s the typical ‘thank you...’ and doesn’t address any of the actual concerns presented. Why do they even bother replying? I’m giving it one more day, then deleting for good.

There needs to be other ways to earn lives. This game can be good but it is rather annoying! You get 5 lives and there are no other options to earn them except through purchase. The components needed to remodel are very explosive you have to pass at least to levels just to buy a decorative and that is if you have passed the level. You rarely get any additional boosts and the ones that are there are sort of whack to say the least. Also, it takes about 30 minutes for each life to replenish! Can you get say ridiculous???? I’m annoyed and over it, obviously not a well thought out app.

I love playing home decor games and puzzle type games, when I found this one I thought I found the best of both worlds. The problem is, I have only designed one thing...why? 1. The items you design with cost a ridiculous amount of money 2. The games are so freaking hard. Either make the items cost less or take the difficult level down some. This is so frustrating. The game is well developed and it could be more fun. I’m thinking about just uninstalling it. Also think about giving daily rewards.

Game is okay nice graphics, but some levels are too difficult where your stuck on the same one for weeks and no boosts are given. They want you to buy boosts and no way to get them by earning them other than decorating like 80% of a room and it’s still not enough to cover one boost. Waste of time having to do puzzles when really all I wanted to do is create and decorate rooms. The game is boring because lack of boosts to get thru levels to do the fun part. By level 74 it got super annoying and finishing a challenge is rediculous with no boosts so I’m deleting Homematch !

I really liked this at first but then I got to some higher levels (around 600) and all of the sudden the games to earn coins and diamonds got really hard. I would have to play the same level 6-8 times to pass it and that is way too much! If I wanted to play candy crush, I would download that app! Also, the power-ups that are supposed to help are usually worthless at best. Often they even go straight to the one spot that hurts me the most. I’m about to give up and try something else. And that makes me sad.

This game fails to update points after winning a level. First time it failed, the game locked just as the level was won. I had to exit the game and re- enter to continue to play. The points never updated. The second time, as the points were updating , I clicked to play next level and noticed my points were not there. This is a flaw. The points should to update in the calculation, regardless if you click for the next level too soon. I rated a 3 because of the concept and overall display of the game.

This game only gives you powerups after totally completing the whole room and as you advance the levels are impossible to win. I have been on the same level for over two weeks now and have to wait until they decide to let me win. Deleting this game after playing over 6 months past level 415. Also on the special rooms, if you don’t complete in the time given, they make you start the designing the room over, so you completely wasted your time and energy.

I really enjoy this game. Relaxing, and just difficult enough to keep it interesting. However, I don’t know how much longer I will continue playing because inflation has set in! The number of points required to purchase items keeps going up but the points I earn have stayed the same since the game began. Could give us at least a 5% raise in game points when you raise purchase prices 30%. Would keep the game fun and moving along. If this were fixed I give it 5 stars and continue to play.

Could be more than 3 stars with improvements. I am *deleting* for now, but might reinstall in awhile to see if it is improved. I do really like that the coins I earn go towards decorating rooms and the match-three games for earning the coins are challenging and varied. However you can only store up to 5 hearts (energy allowing you to play one match-three game each) at a time. And the amount of time it takes to earn those hearts is way too slow. Also the diamonds that can be traded for hearts and boosters cost too much money. I suggest we earn/store 10 hearts in the time it now takes for five. Packages of diamonds and “specials” should cost less. I expect to spend some money when I first start playing a game because I want to learn it and play a little faster, but this one takes too much. I know game developers need money to start and keep developing a game, but I will be more loyal and keep spending some money consistently overtime if it is more balanced and the game company doesn’t seem too greedy. Also, more bonus options in-game or via FB page would be helpful and fun.

I really liked doing the designing part of the game it is really fun to see how the room comes together, but I really, really don’t like the candy crush type game to get coins . It would be nice if put in something else to get coins other than that game. It is the one big down side of this game. Some others are that you have to wait for lives to play the game to get coins. Another is that you spend such little time designing and so much time doing the candy crush like game to get coins. And that is why I am only rating it 3 stars. Like I said it would be nice to see some improvements to the game.

It’s a great game, however sometimes a single puzzle piece/gem or whatever you call it gets stuck in place. I was playing a game right now and had 1 life left. I did amazingly well with 15 moves left and just one tile on the sofa to go. That tile had that gift box thing that shoots out a special piece out. Nothing I did to the gift box would open it up. And of course, closing the game means I’ve not only lost that progress but also my life. Pointlessly trying to open that box would also amount to nothing. I’d lose the game even though technically, I should’ve won 14 moves ago.

I love this game a lot but you guys make it way too difficult to decorate a room compared to many other games just like this. (For context, I’m on level 5091) The items to decorate are too “expensive”. I play all day just to place one or two items so it can take a week or more to complete one room and that’s with buying lots of extra lives. You also need to do more challenges that allow us to win in game or pregame boosters. This game gives out far less opportunities than other games. I love playing but I’m sickened by the amount of money I’ve put into it and I’m about to stop playing. Also; don’t give the same “challenge” rooms over and over again. “coming soon” is the same backyard bbq I’ve decorated twice.

I love designing stuff games it’s like some of my favorite games but there one thing I hate about them. I HATE matching games somehow if you could make a designing game that has a different way to earn money in the game it would probably be my favorite game of all! I just hate the matching! If it was like something else I would love it but matching is not my thing I always see home designing games and I download it but then I see it’s a matching game and I delete it. So if you could try and make a home designing game that doesn’t have the matching levels then please do I would totally love that. Please do if your reading this thank you!

This game is OK. It’s not the best renovation game I ever played though because it doesn’t go onto the next level and then you just sit there and they have to reload it and then you start the whole level over again. That part isn’t very fun. And there also has to be another way to earn lives you just have to wait like this for three hours or something because there’s no other way and less you have to purchase it and I cannot do that not that I don’t have any money I don’t like spending stuff and games and stuff that aren’t really important. So I think this game is OK but I don’t like some stuff about it but you can try yourself!

I’m really enjoying this game. It’s of course similar to other matching games, but I find those relaxing, and this one has the added fun of decorating rooms. I don’t love all the choices, which are often very similar to one another, but that’s personal preference. Unfortunately I made it through all the rooms a while back, so I’m just accumulating points. The challenges are a nice feature, but even though I’m at level 430-something, I’ve yet to make it through a challenge room. The time is so short. I think I’d have to play this pretty nonstop to earn the tickets required. Also, please add a daily bonus, or a way to earn boosts or lives by watching ads or something. Good job! Keep it up.

The game is fun. Not too hard but not easy either. I love the relaxing music. The choice of decor is nice and modern with up to date decor. The reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was because as soon as you finish a challenge/ room, it immediately takes you to a different challenge. I really would like to view the end results a little longer or see a before an after scene. This is the most satisfied drying part of decorating.

The matching part of the game (which honestly I could do without) is just annoying. I don’t really care for match games, and sometimes it’s too hard, and I get annoyed and stop playing all together for long periods of time. If I wanted to play a match game, I would download a match game as opposed to a decorating game. I still gave the game 4 stars because I love the decorating part of it. I just wish I could do more of the decorating and less match game.

In this category this game is really amazing and great, though some levels are super hard!! The decorations and the game is really beautiful and entertaining. Hope you release new levels much sooner.
But since the last update my game doesn’t load, it just stays in the logo,the first page, could you please fix this bug?

I hate how other apps are so stingy with their reward points. Goodness don’t make the game feel like a DRAG with collecting stupid points. I am NOT going to buy your stupid imaginary points anyways. This game is light fun and easy and most of all, I get to spend most of the time doing what I really enjoy: having fun designing, not waiting all the time for my points to renew smh. Thanks game designers for an enjoyable game! Just started playing - hope I won’t have to delete it if it starts stonewalling me for money.
