Solitaire Home Design-Fun Game Reviews

I have been playing this game for months and I’m so addicted to it. I had a pretty good amount of coins I had been saving, my prosperity was progressing well and I had just finished the upstairs bathroom when my phone broke. I had to get a new phone, but thanks to the cloud ALL of my stuff in my phone was safe and able to get back…except this game! I was so mad made that all that time I spent playing this game was completely wasted!!! At first I just deleted it and thought I’d find something new, but I really liked it so I just started all over. However, this time I am never able to purchase the more expensive option for furniture without having to use a crazy amount of coins for upgrades. It used to be if I select the +39 furniture option (cause once you get to higher levels you have no choice but to upgrade or you can’t get any further in the game due to lack of prosperity points) I could click the highest priced furniture and it would just make me watch an ad to get it. Now I have to spend all my coins to get it which runs down the amount of games I can play. It’s dumb and a never ending cycle. Bring back the ad option to get more prosperity and better furniture please!!!!

The game is very intriguing. I'm invested, which is always nice, it is HARD to find a decent game to not want to delete. But I'm very close to deleteing it, which is somewhat uncomfortable and unsatisfying. The game progresses with a good story and I've only gotten to such a small level, and haven't hardly gotten through the whole story. I would love to! I want to know what happens next. But unfortunately I can't keep a sustainable amouth of currency to keep playing even the x1 games. My luck is unfortunate, but I'm very tired of the game cheating me up too. I refuse to spend money on this game because I'm not doing so good financially and it's hard to continue playing without the coins! With all due respect, I love the game. But your currency system is very very terrible. Not only can you not play if you don't have coins, but the only way to get coins is to spend money. Or you can spend all of your coins and base it purely on if you're lucky enough to play again before spending all your currency on the last game you lost. Please fix this and make it easier to gain currency, the currency isn't even just for the game in general. But it's extremely hard to get anything else on the game because you're too worried if you have enough to get more clovers or play another game. With deep regards, a devoted time waster.

I really don’t write reviews, but maybe this will reach the Developers. I became overly drawn to this game and it has become my favorite. The story line is fun and the graphics don’t bother me, which others complain about, it’s the issue with me leveling up. I’m on level 600+ prosperity 22 and It has become impossible for me to win and gain coins. It’s over 14k to play on level 3 so after 1 game It takes me out the entire day until I can watch ads or get the daily bonus to play another level. Then you add the cost I have to pay to decorate the home so all my coins have to go to the highest choice just to get prosperity to add to my level upgrade. Then after I’m done picky the most expensive choices of decorations and I still don’t have enough prosperity to level up and unlock the next section. Their is no ads to watch to unlock the levels no money can pay for the unlock in the levels and I would have to buy the $100 coins pack just to only hope I win enough coins to actually afford to pick all the highest decorations and even doing that still wouldn give me enough prosperity to upgrade to this next level. I have spent money on this game only to be disappointed and not able to play for weeks. Similar games are boring but at least I have enough money to play the game throughout the day.

I do enjoy this game however it is very expensive to play it which makes me sad. I like the storyline and the goofy characters, playing any type of solitaire game is one of my favorite pastimes but come on! You need jokers and extra cards for every single game and I don’t like to purchase all the time because frankly I can’t afford it. I live below poverty level and I am a senior citizen who does enjoy to decorate while playing solitaire but I believe that this game is only geared for the millionaires on this planet which is a shame. There are more of us regular people on this earth than bajillionaires and we can’t keep up. I just redownloaded this game this morning and I can already see there are more sabotage games than winners. I thought I would give it another shot but it looks like it will end up being deleted again. It’s a gosh darn shame.

so i love the game, love the storyline, love upgrading the house and surrounding areas. ive played for two ish weeks and im at level 298. HOWEVER, as soon as you hit level 200 youre pretty much doomed and cant play as frequently, and thats the part i absolutely loved about the game initially. you can have one card to knock down, with 6-8 cards left over and NONE of them will help get the last card down. honestly it makes me feel like im getting gyped, and to have to use your extra +5 cards and still not get a corrisponding card to the one you still have left, is insanely infuriating. im losing THOUSANDS of coins and extra cards that could be used elsewhere, like better furniture until you beat the challenges to get the white and gold, super cute furniture. This isnt only on 3x games, its on the 2x games, and dont get me started on 1x games. theyre not even worth it. PLEASE stop gyping us out of cards and coins.

PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS GAME CONSISTENTLY SCREWING US OUT OF THE TICKETS AND COINS. i can play the same level 100x and try the different “difficulties” and still get screwed. 10 cards left and none of them matched? how? or why am i only getting the same cards i have left to knock down? i loved this game at the start but im about to delete it.

Let me start off by saying that I LOVE this game. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a really fun game and I love how they have “side games” besides from the main one, but I have to give it 3 stars because I feel like the bad graphics of the makeover part (the furniture, the dogs, the characters) is SUPER distracting, not to mention how annoying it is to not have a consistent style with the interior design.
I appreciate the developers for trying to bring a more modern aesthetic to the house with the appliances and stuff, but none of that matters if the amazing counters don’t have a matching set with the island (???). It kinda makes no sense to me because I’d rather not have the modern option if I could just make the design more visually pleasing, if that makes sense. Basically what I mean is, I’ve been basically only playing the game and barely decorating the house because of how aggravated I get that nothing matches :(((
Lastly, the amount of ads is absurd and it honestly makes me stop playing the game because of how sudden and often the ads pop up.

Overall it is a good game, and I love it, but It just needs some work, because I could def play that game wayyy more if those things were fixed or at least improved!

It’s a money grab, levels are designed to be ridiculously difficult and cost a bunch of money which leads to you having to watch ads to get more coins or buying coin with real money. When you play double and triple, it costs you two or three of your saved up abilities but still only gives you one in game. Costs twice as much as the level to buy extra cards and if you do win the reward is barely worth what it cost to play the level. And don’t get me started on the clovers. It’s a cute idea but the levels are so hard it’s almost impossible to get a streak to get one without buying cards (which again are expensive), meaning you can pass a level but not advance in the game at all. It’s literally designed to keep you broke so you have to spend your real money.

And to the person who respond to these reviews: quit telling people that’s theres so many ways to get free coins. Yeah, your right that the games gives away coins basically with ads, aunts gift, etc. but the levels wipe out those give aways after one or two levels. Not only is it belittling our struggles with the game your company designed, it’s also making an excuse to not fix it despite numerous people complaining.

I’m not interested in redownloading this ever.

This is the typical game where they get you hooked in the beginning with a fun story and cute decorations for your house, then it gets so expensive that it’s nearly impossible to play. I’m at level 92 now and I get to play maybe 3-4 solitaire games a day, and it’s not even true solitaire it’s just “match the numbers until there aren’t any cards left”. The game is totally rigged. I’ll have 1-2 cards left on the board with 8-10 left to flip, and I’ve noticed that if I’ve earned 2-3 clovers (which are used to fix the house up), I will literally go through all 8-10 cards without getting a single match, but then if I haven’t earned any clovers throughout the match, it will let me win. Then of course they give you “other businesses” as a way to make more money, but you have to spend a crap ton of money to even get the businesses to start earning money??? I spent three days of playing JUST in the cafe to get it to where it’ll make me money, just to find out it only makes me a little over $1k every 4 hours??? And it costs $3k to play a single game of “solitaire”??? Games like this are absolute money grabs. Guess I can’t say I’m surprised, all the games these people make are like this. Don’t waste your time.

Well I thought I found a fun, different game, instead of yet another “match 3”, candy crush-esque format. It is fun, and the storyline is completely unrealistic and silly, but it’s entertaining. But…nope. This is a money grab game. I’ll pay a little bit here and there for games Ive been playing for a long time and there’s a purpose behind the purchase, but this one would get expensive FAST right away if I put any real money into it. For reference, I’ve only been playing about a week and the last several days have been hard. Unlike most other similar games, you don’t have lives that refill over time. Instead, you have virtual coins in the game and you have to pay to play. You win the coins back…if you complete the level on your first try. If you need to add cards or even undo a move, you won’t win back everything you put in. You can build up free passes, undos, and other boosts, but it doesn’t last long. Considering this is a game largely based on chance, this feels rather scammy with how difficult it is to progress in the game and how often they throw a purchase screen in front of your face.

Got hooked on this game at first but considering deleting it. I’ve spent many hours and my own money to advance in the game but this game is completely rigged. Not only will I have 10+ cards left and shuffle though them without a single match but I’ve also noticed I’ll have several cards left, go to draw the next card, & I’ll lose two cards. Go to draw another card, lose two. I also noticed in the “Lucky Draw” where you can spend clovers to “win” a prize, that that’s also rigged. Ran out of coins to play a round but had some clovers so I decided to use a few to try to earn win coins or maybe a Free Play card. Won the 1000 coin prize, which brought my balance up to 2534 coins. Great. Spent another clover, won the 500 coin prize. This SHOULD have brought my coin balance up to 3034. No, instead my coins dropped down to 2034, and then I was “awarded” my 500 coins, which brought my coin balance right back up to 2534, even though it should have brought me up to 3034 coins. Really frustrating to invest time and money on a game that’s rigged & considering deleting the game.

When I first started playing this game, I was IN LOVE with it. However, I did notice that the coins that you have to spend for power ups were all over the place. Like, for the 3x hand, you have to pay 3 times the price of the power up, but you only get one. The coins that you earn, do not keep up with playing and if you want to continue to play without being stuck, you have to spend money. It’s $9.99 for 95,000 coins, no power ups, and that’s the cheapest bundle they have. The cost of playing continues to go up, but the rewards stay the same. So pretty soon, you’re spending 9,000 coins to play one hand, and it’s not even a guaranteed win, and you get MAYBE 10,000 coins in return. That’s if you’re lucky. I spent a lot of time (and money) on this game before I got fed up with not being able to play more than once a day, and deleted it. I very rarely leave reviews, but this game frustrated me so badly, I had to leave one so others would be aware. If you don’t want to spend $10 a day on a game, don’t download this.

This game is fun especially if you like to play solitaire games. However I have noticed that as I progress in levels (I’m on 200 something) it seems like the game sets me up to fail unless I use some type of special card to help me win. For example, I’ll attempt a level and when I get towards the end of choosing the cards I may end up with four sevens left on the board, when I couldn’t match them with anything earlier and the game gave me no cards in my deck to clear them, how am I supposed to win when the deck is literally stacked for me not to? Also, sometimes I’ll have cleared the entire board except for one or two cards and I have around 5-10 cards left in my deck yet none of the cards in my deck end up matching so I’ll end up losing the level even tho I should have won in regards to odds (this is frustrating and is starting to make the game annoying). Too often it seems that the cards I’m dealt end up to be no where near what I need to complete the level. Again set up to fail.

I love this game but once you hit a certain level it is harder to level up to redecorate. It is super frustrating. I have spent money on this game so it’s even more irritating.

I did redo the treehouse which helped me get past many levels but now that I completed it, it is now impossible to level up to unlock more decorating. A suggestion I have is to add more things like the treehouse. Also to add Mostly everything in my house i used the middle option which would give you more ribbons as well. I do not want to use the third option because I have to pay and then pay to play levels on top of that so then it would take extra long to complete and defeats my whole argument.

The love stories are SUPER LONG AND SO BORING. I didn’t get the game to read. I would have gotten a book out or reading app. ALSO even when you finish a chapter I still don’t get ribbons to level up. DELETE THIS OPTION COMPLETELY!!!!!

I’m not one to write reviews, but I think it’s worth it to say that this games biggest challenge is gathering enough currency (or tickets) to actually move forward. No matter how many ads I watch or side games I play, I cannot earn enough currency to actually play a significant amount of games. I don’t have the time nor patience to wait an entire DAY for my fountain to refresh. The zodiac side game was the only thing I could reliably earn free tickets from, now it costs me 2 clovers to play(?!?!) how do I move forward if I’m wasting the clovers I’m trying to earn? At this point, I can’t play until tomorrow, and I don’t like that I have to wait an entire day to earn money. I’m trying to beat a side game with a time limit on it. I don’t have the time to WAIT for more money, I feel like I’m being cheated. Not to mention since I’ve updated ads have started playing whenever they want, and I don’t earn any rewards for watching MINUTE LONG ADS… It’s beginning to get frustrating

I really enjoy this game. It is very addictive. However, a LOT of it is based on watching adds. For example to continue on in levels, you have to reach a certain number of prosperity points. This is only achievable if you both purchase the higher costing design item, and watch the add for the higher reward item. Double furniture ownership all the way through. The main problem here is that about one in four adds, completely locks up the game and you have to close out the game and restart it. I have reported numerous glitches but it just keeps happening and it is MASSIVELY frustrating. I also absolutely hate the romance story crap that again you have to watch to gain prosperity points. Many of them are bizarre or even abusive which is disturbing. Supposedly you can purchase clothes for your avatar people too but they are constantly locked and i see absolutely no understandable path to unlocking them.

The game is set up for you to spend more money in order to advance. First of all, you have to use coins to play each level and the levels require a lot of coins in order to play. If you win tickets to play, it won’t be many and those will disappear faster than the coins. The levels are seem to be rigged in favor of the developer instead of being honestly random. Since I can’t seem to advance and coins are required to play, I will be uninstalling this game. You don’t get a good value for coin purchases anyway if you don’t spend over $10 at a time and even then it’s wasted because each level requires so many coins at a time just to play and then the levels are unbelievably hard with booster options to save the levels being double the cost to even play the levels. Also, the storyline has way too much taking in it. It takes away from the game and it slows you down when there are challenges you’re participating in to win more coins and boosters. Not worth the headache or money. Sorry.

I really liked this game. I know you need to sometimes upgrade your selections to get to the next level, which is fine. You watched ads for those upgrades , again that’s fine it’s a free game. But I decided to buy two smaller packs to get some of the Christmas decorations quicker because it seemed to be on such a time limit to get them. I can’t afford to do that all the time it nor should I have to. Your getting revenue from ads. Now when I play I cannot watch an ad to get a bonus thing to maybe help pass a level. Also if I go to things not upgraded to the top level it now cost a ton of money and not where you could watch ads anymore to get it. I don’t know if it’s because of my purchase or because SolitaireHomeDesignFunGame was updated but that’s ridiculous! Even though you get revenue from ads or at least add an upgrade option that is a one time purchase . I don’t know but it looks like greed ruined another game.

I enjoy playing this game, the solitaire game twists are nice, you can earn coins,(because you need them for each game of solitaire you play) there are side games & contests, & it has an overall story of renovating a house between 2 people who don’t like each other. It’s engaging. What bothers me is with the last update, you not only have to watch commercials as a way to receive coins, & to receive some helpful items, but now you have to endure a commercial if you complete a game of solitaire! I’m receiving nothing for this & it holds up the game play. This part is not right. If you’re making money off of me playing commercials, why do I receive nothing for it?

PS, the automatic play of my special cards is not right. If I lose a few games it’s my choice to use the cards, not yours. It causes me to waste cards if I don’t check that the game has already checked them into play.

Love this game it’s different from playing the normal matching 3-4 in a row Jewels, candy, etc. games if you’ve played candy crush, or 7 wonder type games. Although I’d say one thing that really is annoying is the amount of things that cost coins in this game. When you change the style of things in a room that should be free and not cost you more clovers to switch if you wanted to get a visual of different pieces together and what they would look like. Also the amount that it costs for reverses when you are earning clovers, when it increases is annoying. I think that it should be revamped. If y’all would look into making it cost less coins that would be great, because I prefer to not spending my real life money on this game for coins.

I will say firs that I LOVE the game. 5/5 for that. HOWEVER, the plot is just horrible. Why do they have the treat the dog so poorly? Who wants an entertaining game with a side of virtual dog neglect?
Even if you put aside how the characters treat the dog, the plot does not flow. It is like pulling teeth. I wish we could just skip over that part and design the house without the horrible characters and plot.
Which brings me to another downfall of this game: the options that they give you to design are horrible. They do not match, and they are what I think a 5 year old girl would like with pink and poofy obnoxious decor. There are some modern to select from which I appreciate. However even after I designed the bedroom how I wanted, if I played a certain number of games in 24 hours they would change it to an extremely ugly white and pink child’s Barbie room. I had to stop playing for 24 hours so I didn’t “win” that “upgrade”.

Again… the games here are entertaining, fun and semi challenging. Those I would not change a thing. However everything else is ok at best… and the dog neglect should just be taken out. I am not sure who enjoys or is entertained by that?! If you are you should probably seek some help.

due to all of the above reasons I stick with a 2.5/5… which is too bad because this game could be a 5/5 with some tweaks.

For anyone looking for a new game to play, keep looking. This one is not worth your time anymore. This game was awesome until this latest update. Now the developers FORCE you to watch adds after just about every level you play, win or lose. They also force you to watch adds after almost every renovation you make to the house immediately after they force you to watch adds for completing the level. Each add is 23-25 seconds long, so you spend the majority of the game watching adds!! It’s ridiculous. And forget about contacting them. Their only response is “to cover costs for the game” and “thank you for understanding”. I’m sorry, but I don’t understand! There are hundreds of similar games out there that don’t force you to watch adds. Time to rethink your cost effectiveness strategy Hong Kong Fotoable Technology Limited. Stop being greedy and let your customers play the game!

I love the idea and the game is fun, however I was having SO much fun I played for a long time, I ran out of coins or whatever it was ..still learning..and was stuck..I had to stop playing..this would be nice if they offered you the game to purchase but it’s such a refreshing change from match three games (which I am not a fan of) and I love the decorating part, it would be nice to choose colors of the rugs and such the choices are limited..and what pet or color pet. As for now I will play every day until I run out of whatever needed to continue then move on to another game until the next day.

I’m not sure why everyone keeps saying it’s a money trap. I have never spent a cent on this game and I currently have over $300,000 coins. You just have to know the tricks to gain coins and save and I am on level 161. This game offers so many ways to win extra coins and I thought I would read lots of reviews saying the same thing. It was shocked to see so many people not like it. I always watch an ad before each game for the bonus help this way I never lose a game. I’m only giving it four stars because the decorations are not always the best and if you win the design to get all the decorations in the contests then everything you just decorate on your own was a waste. Also the storyline is a bit weird but I enjoy it and I have fun!

I was forced to update to this current update, as it’s supposed to be easier to receive clovers and coins. I’ve had no issues before getting passed levels or having to spend actual money to get through the whole time I’ve played the game and I’m on level 561 but they’ve became almost impossible to beat. Just spent an hour and a half on two levels when originally I could’ve made it through several. I’ve been playing this game for two weeks now and i have made it this far into the game with absolutely no problem until this update. I will honestly be deleting and not redownloading because this update is trash and is like any other game. I’ll find something else to my liking because this game was fun and quite easy to begin with up til now which is why I enjoyed the game so much but 1 star rating is needed after this update. Disappointed!!

First let me start by saying this game is really fun and would play it all the time… But the amount of game ads is ridiculous. I totally get the concept of watching a game ad for extra cards ect, but if you click to just end the game 3 out of 5 times you are forced to watch an ad anyway before you can move on. One would think we should get the extra cards then right, nope. In playing this game for 20 mins without clicking to watch ad for extra stuff I was forced to watch 15 different times before I could move on. I end up just switching to a totally different game. I’m still baffled how you can be down to 1 card with 10 draw cards left and not have one that plays, which happens all the time. It’s to bad this game is set up like this, disappointing because it could have been a really addictive game!

In the beginning, the game was fine and I could pass all the levels. But later the levels required you to play them more than once or make you pay for 5 extra cards and you still couldn’t clear the board. I understand that in most games like this, the levels get harder, but I’m currently on level 25 and it’s impossible to pass. The levels before 25 were also pretty difficult. I think you need to rethink the cards in the deck. And another thing, the designs in the living room are horrible. NONE of the carpets match to one style, the only thing that looked decent was the bedroom. Please listen to people when they write a review, they do it for a reason, to help YOU. And the only reason I say this is because I’ve seen a lot of reviews like this done months ago and you’ve responded but have done nothing about the issue.

This is by far my favorite game that I have downloaded. I have seen several reviews saying that it is an “obvious money grab” but I’m on level 674 and haven’t spent a single cent. My one complaint is that a few of the furniture pieces are unable to be changed after selecting them. You usually hold down to edit the style, but there are a few where this either just doesn’t work or another item is in the way. It would ideal to be able to tap a button that puts a dot above every item that can be clicked to change the style. Still, I highly recommend this game!

When i first started playing this game i enjoyed. The story line was funny and it kept me entertained. But with the recent update. Everything is higher, you lose money quickly and have no choice to buy more coins with real money. It glitches. And if I have a greedy cat or the whirlspin, they make you pay extra to use when playing rewards triple and you have to play that mode because to get more clovers. I won’t be playing this game much longer because you can’t even play more than 5 mins w/o having to pay for different things
