Match Triple 3D: Matching Tile Reviews

by PM871

As a developer, you want people to enjoy your game so they pay money and spread the word so others try it and play. How then does it make sense to annoy your players/customers by popping up ads in the MIDDLE of a round? I don’t mean the ones that you can choose when you run out of free boxes. I mean the ones that just pop up anyway with no choice. It’s a timed round and it rudely INTERRUPTS multiple times! Do you think you can bully people into paying $6.99 to get rid of ads - very pricey by the way compared with other apps that charge $2 or $3. If that’s the thinking, it’s stupid! More people will just stop playing instead, like me, and the developers will make far less money than they could. It never ceases to amaze me how people don’t understand the importance of happy customers. Well, this game could be good, but instead I can’t give more than one star due to the complete annoyance instead of enjoyment it provides.

The game would be enjoyable if you didn’t have long ads that just freeze. While it’s stuck in place You can hit the arrow to try to get out- but that just takes you to MatchTriple3D Store. But even when the x comes on indicating the ad is finished you still can’t exit the ad screen. Just takes you to MatchTriple3D Store as well. Over and over and over. This ad exiting process can take 2 minutes sometimes. And there are way too many ads. So if you’re looking for a Quick game, don’t open this one- you will lose a part of your life that you will never get back. It will take 15 minutes at least to get through one game. Also, not recommended for a small screen- including the largest iPhone screen. It is too crowded together and very difficult to play. Best played on a tablet device.

I bought this for my mom who has dementia. Almost 7 dollars is a of crap ton of money for this game. However it seems to be something she enjoys. Still paid for it. Thought it would get rid of all ads. Nowhere did it say if you pay the money you will still get ads-they would be reward ads. She accidentally taps them, ends up in MatchTriple3D Store, and has no way to get back to the game. They confuse my mom. No she cannot decide whether or not to watch them because she has dementia. If someone bought this for a child they couldn’t either. I would like my money back. Or a way to disable them. This becomes a dead app for me. She also has tinnitus. The ads are very very loud. I don’t want to turn off all the sounds. I am so frustrated these rewards ads are thoughtless especially for an app that costs $6.99. It’s outrageous.

The game itself is good, but I’ve never seen so many ads in a game before! You can’t even get through a relatively short round without being interrupted once if not twice—yes, TWICE. Sure, you can pay to get rid of them, but $6.99 is far too expensive for this game, plus I feel like I’m being coerced into paying, which makes me even less likely pony up. You also have to pay to break the piggy bank, and I’m still not totally sure what that gets me—the coins I’ve earned by playing, maybe? It’s fine that the creators want to make money on this game, and I like it when I’m actually playing, but the ads ruin the enjoyment to the point that after a week or so, I can’t take it anymore.

The game is very challenging! Sometimes the games are impossible without boosters. The boosters are hard to get. After winning a game, the coin rewards are too small. The cost for time, 100 coins is too high for the pittance of coins you’re rewarded when you win. You spend 100 coins to complete a level, then win 7 coins! What sense does that make. Sometimes you spend the 100 coins for an additional 60 seconds, you barely get started & the screen flashes times up in 10 seconds or less! It cheats you! Also, it seems to know when you’ve got to match the next move & it seems to conveniently hide everything you need. Also, you can highlight what you need & it jumps to another figure.

Awesome graphics!! I will only give a 3 star BECAUSE I really HATE the POP-up adds in the middle of playing and sometimes 2-3 times a game. It isn’t necessary and it’s highly annoying. Another issue is the piggy bank. Once it’s full, they want you to BUY something ..otherwise all the coins you earn playing just bounce away to never never land...so not a lot you can do with the coins you earn. The sad thing it is a fun game .. and where I might be inticed to spend actually dollars, I never will because it smacks of greed with the ads and the piggy bank. I play to relax not be stressed by having my concentration broken. And this write a review came during a game so guess what, the clock is still ticking so I lose this game trying to write this review.

Love the actual game and the challenge of finding 3 matching items in a big pile of “stuff”. I like that there’s an eclectic collection of items. Some look similar, and some are on their sides or upside down so it’s tricky to make sure you’re actually choosing the correct item. But that just adds to the fun. I find using a stylus instead of my finger helps make the selection more precise. Biggest drawback for this game is that I’m forced to sit through 30 seconds of ads for every 30 seconds of play. Just when I get on a roll to find items, the momentum is derailed for an ad, even though I’m in the middle of the game. Some of the ads are a bit gross and disgusting to look at. But, I guess that’s the trade off for free. I would have given this game 5 stars if it weren’t for the incessant ads.

by Erendrake

I love the game but the THE ADS ARE EXCESSIVE! Even after paying for no ads there is still ads that last close to a minute between each level. After the ad runs for 30 seconds you get another ad screen and when you try to clear that it sends you to MatchTriple3D Store. Dealing with the ads is far more frustrating than the game itself and at this point I will never, I repeat, never download any app from this game. After update for performance issues I wasn’t able to use the “free” continue. After the first ad it cycled into a second ad, then the second ad froze and the only way out was to shut down the system. And start over. When I cleared the level and got 5x rewards, truth is I got nothing. I think you still have performance issues.

The action of the game is to tap the object to select it rather than dragging it to the box. Much smoother and much less frustrating. I like the game so much that I paid to get rid of the ads. My problem is that after playing many levels, I find it less challenging to the point of almost boring. I will get level after level that give me 5 or 6 minutes and are easily beaten in just a couple of minutes. Now, I play on my iPad not my phone and use a stylus ( can’t imagine finishing even one level without a stylus) and this maybe makes the difference cuz I am going to be 66 in a couple of months and so totally not a whiz kid. Would’ve given it 5 stars but for that. How about the option of a challenge level with more objects or less time? I can’t imagine that I am the only one experiencing this. And before someone reminds me that there are other games that are harder that I could play, let me say that I have indeed played them and find them TOO challenging with way too little time to win without boosters or money and the frustrating action of dragging not tapping the objects. Anyway, will keep playing the game as it is the best I have found all around.

I’ve enjoyed playing this game. I don’t mind watching the ads, but why is there an “ad break” in the middle of a level? You are being timed to clear all the objects before time runs out. Then half way through, there is an ad. Totally breaks your concentration. And it is usually the same ad for Royal Match, so I get to watch this animated King drowned or die some other way over and over again. I know it’s animated, but it is still disturbing. So I put my device on airplane mode, and it doesn’t interrupt the level. However, developers are aware of this because now suddenly a message keeps flashing during level that there is no internet connection. Again, I like the game, and wouldn’t mind watching the ads between levels. And maybe advertise different games along with Royal Match. I understand ads are important, and yes you can buy your game without ads, so why have a free game available if your players are just going to get frustrated and delete the game?

Love this game. It’s addictive! So much so that I bought the ad-free version, and continued watching ads for extra bonuses. But…. 5 levels after I bought it, I hit a wall. Between my poor eyesight and arthritic fingers, I could not get past the level I was on. I continued to play, but after blowing through all my bonuses, it started to wear on me. No point in buying more bonuses because I was never going to get through the level; I never really even got close.

So…. Suggestion for the developers. Perhaps for the paid version you could put out an update that allows for a “timeless” mode, or that adds 30 seconds to the timer for every 15-20 failed attempts at a level. That way players like myself could still advance and earn bonuses after we buy the game. Just a thought. 😀

This game is extremely addictive! Lol There’s really no point in playing if you don’t buy it. There are WAY TOO MANY ads to continue playing levels. The ads will interrupt the games which hinders your progress. In saying that, this game is fun! It appears you need to collect the coins in the piggy bank when it’s full so I paid to get them twice. However, you don’t have to pay for them as you will get coins and power ups as you complete levels. Also, there is an option to watch 1 ad to collect coins if you get in a bind. Otherwise, there aren’t any ads. I’ve been stuck on a few levels for a day or two, but then I’d get it. The “stop clock” power up helps. I rarely use my coins. I believe the game is more than worth the price as long as you don’t get caught up buying coins and power ups.

I’m on level 705. There are no new pieces, and haven’t been for almost 2 weeks. It’s boring doing the same batches over and over. I love this game. But, I need new things to find. Also, why do we have to pay to cash in the pig after all it’s our stars we earned by playing. If you put new pieces in every so many levels like before, this would the best game I’ve played in a long time.

Update: aim now on level 80? Can’t remember the exact number. Thanks for the one package of stuff you sent last week. Still love the game, but need new packages. Still four stars instead of 5. When the packages start arriving at the proper levels, you’ll get five stars. I’m looking around to see it there is something similar that I’d like, so hurry with those new packages.

This game is definitely addicting - liked it enough to pay to get rid of the ads which were really overkill! Don’t they realize we really don’t watch them? Also, having the piggy bank get full, then charge you to get the coins out is really irritating - if I earned the coins, I should get them for free!! Now I’m stuck at level 206. I’ve tried about 200 times to pass it, and 4 minutes 6 seconds is impossible to match all the items....there’s too many there...it needs to be more like 6 minutes like some of the other levels. Just about ready to delete the game since I can’t skip the level - very frustrating! Would love to know if anyone ever reads these comments and fixes their game!?

I love this game and my mother plays a lot, too. I paid to remove ads and used to play a lot. Then I stopped getting any new items. That would not be so bad, but it kept giving me the same set to play every level. If it had rotated the sets I already had I might have kept playing, but I stopped for a long time because they were always the same. I just got a new tablet and decided to open the game and it started rotating pieces again, I saw butterflies again and colored eggs, then I started earning new sets. I don’t know if it was a glitch, but I really hope I keep seeing variety in the levels even if I have to wait a while for new sets. I do really enjoy this game more than any of the other matching games I have tried.

Love playing the game! What I don’t like is:
-I have my phone silenced. There are many ads that come in w/sound regardless that my phone is silenced. It happened once in a meeting Where I was the next presenter but not taking info.
-sometimes when gathering the free tokens, the phone will freeze during an ad and nothing happens for hours unless you turn the game completely off. Sometimes I was close to advancing and I needed tokens to “continue” (100 are needed for this) but did not allow me to collect the amount needed (froze) to continue and I eventually lost the game when I could have won.
-sometimes my phone heats up playing, things then become sluggish with the game
Otherwise, I find this game challenging

by Crazy Traci

I hope the developers read this review. I love your game and could play it for hours! However, your newest update has caused some issues. I can only play for about 15 minutes, then my iPhone gets hot and the screen dims making it impossible to see. The screen isn’t auto dimming. It’s dimming because the iPhone is too hot. I just bought this iPhone 11. So I doubt it’s the phone. I see from other reviews, I’m not the only one experiencing this issue. Maybe adding too many packages has caused too much processing power for your app on the iPhone.....

I do not write reviews on games and I usually don’t play games on my phone but this game is addicting I am on level 500 and something. It makes me think plus gets more challenging every time I complete a level it adds more. I still play the free version but will definitely pay for it soon I hate the ads. I have my grandson who is 3 he likes to help me look for matching things it helps him with development. My favorite is the eggs I love this level I have gotten really good at it. The only flaw it has is when it first came up as an ad it showed them all moving downward and she was clicking on it. But they don’t move at all they are all thrown in a pile so this is more challenging. Over All this is an amazing game makes my day go a little faster when their is nothing else to do.

***EDITING my original review because the ad glitch was fixed. Not now another ad glitch. Ad for “royal match” and just sticks. This has been going on for a week or so now. It won’t shut down when you hit the X. Sometimes the X to shut down doesn’t even appear. This ad needs to go. It’s also the most frequent ad in this game. Taking a long break from the game until this ad goes away.

***EDIT AGAIN***
I was contacted via email saying the glitching ad was removed. Played today and it’s smooth sailing.
Thank you to the developers for the personal response and the fix in the game. Great customer service! Thanks for listening.

I rarely write game reviews but this game is amazing to the point I paid to have the ads removed. The different levels offer a variety of items that change often in what you seek to match. The game moves quickly and each increment of successful matches gives you rewards to help you on subsequent levels. Overall one of my most favorite games. I have downloaded a similar game and although entertaining, this particular game entertains me for dar too long daily but it definitely keeps me on point. If you love matching games, I highly recommend this one. To the developers, kudos to throwing in the Easter Egg random levels. Enjoyable and challenging. Definitely a game changer and the graphics are awesome. 10 stars!!!

Well, I loaded this game again after deleting it several weeks ago because of the ridiculously long 30 second ads. I do not sit through long ads.
I have made similar comments before on this game, about long ads.
It doesn’t take sitting through 30 seconds or 20 seconds for people to get the message in an advertisements. So today since I liked the game before and hoped for an improvement in time length of ad, I tried it again. And guess what popped up after a couple of minutes into the game.......YES a 30 second ad!!!!
Therefore, once again I am deleting it.
Never to come back. I am leaving and going to my favorite games that have short 5 second ads. Often I install the new games advertised in 5 second ads. I never install any that are advertised in those aggravating 30 second ads.
