Triple Match 3D Reviews

* they add items that you have to find, at the last moment before it times out, so that you never really had a chance, and were just wasting time. * if you have eight small items like bananas and sunglasses left, you’ll suddenly find that the table you were looking for was behind a banana…. or that 5 soccer balls are still missing. * I could swear sometimes an extra value item will be in one place, get covered, you’ll be looking for it, and it will suddenly be on the other side instead. * If there is a special event going on, it seems you will likely win each round less often, in order to make it harder to win the event. * If you are about to win a level on a first try, suddenly, your helps won’t work. You’ll keep clicking it and nothing will happen until it says you lost- this was my last straw today. * In the 3,993 rounds that I’ve won in the last 9 months (yes, it’s addictive but also continuously frustrating), I have NEVER come close to completing an event. My guess is you have to spend $30+ in real cash to win a single event that is then over and of no lasting value. Moral: Don’t get stuck in this carnival game that’s rigged to choose for itself, when you can actually win and when you’ll just be wasting time trying.

It was fun at first. Now it is RIDICULOUS: too many items with similar color and shape, too little time, no way to obtain helps unless you pay…. All of this in the same box over and over: Black square, black triangle, black rectangle black pie triangle, orange, 2 red circle shapes, 2 yellow ball shapes, lemons, yellow bells the same size as lemons, swords, bolts, gears, airplanes, gray elephant heads, gray mouse heads (same size as elephants), dark gray rhino heads, and sometimes Chinese food boxes, and sometimes gold coins (I think that is all.).

You win. I concede. I have tried this perhaps 40 times now over several days, used up the perks I had earned and can’t win.

Customers: It was fun at first. But it is designed to make you pay or quit.

I did enjoy this game at first. But eventually the hard and extra hard levels are impossible to beat without using multiple boosters—and even then some are impossible until the game (after you have tried a level dozens and dozens of times) makes it easier by putting almost everything right on top. If it takes days to pass one level, it is not fun.

Also, the game does not allow you to move items aside to get to something underneath. That is particularly problematic on levels with only one or two sets of most items. The sensitivity is also an issue as quite often a different item than the one I touched goes to the bar. I frequently end up with a full bar accidentally because of that, and there is no option to use your undo boosts once the bar is full. So if you have a sensitivity hiccup when you are going super fast, it’s game over.

The ads are also an issue. I understand why they need to have them, but they frequently freeze the game. I don’t have that issue with other games, just this one. That is particularly frustrating in competition events like the Boat Race since you lose if the game freezes.

See my original rating below, that came with 5 stars. Now I’m deleting your game due to the ridiculous amount of ads and giving you one star! The game wasn’t ad bombing until level 200 - then you either pay or you get ads after every single game - win or lose - you get an ad. That’s absurd.

Loved the game / but definitely not enough for that nonsense.

Original review: I waited until I got to level 150 before I submitted a review. The game has remained consistent. It’s challenging, some boards too challenging because you spend days on them. They need to program in “mercy” for when you’ve had to play the same board 50 times. Overall a pretty good game! I hardly ever give good reviews. This one deserves it - so far. 🤔😉

I am fine with in-app purchases. No reason we shouldn’t pay for entertainment. I have been playing my two favorite games for years and they require in-app purchases to progress. But rewards correlate with accomplishments and purchases won’t bleed you dry. Triple Match requires playing a level several times to beat it—should be fun to figure out the strategy. But it takes a half hour to earn a life. Play for 15 minutes. Use up all your lives and then wait a half hour to get just one more life. Whether given as a reward or as an in-app purchase, the boosts are pathetic and insulting. Not fun anymore. I’ll only show loyalty to an app if developers have respect for fans. These developers don’t.

UPDATE: my first message requesting a refund for the money I spent or put my game back to level 1968 has been ignored along with the 5 or 6 other messages. As of today the newest version makes it impossible for me to message them at all. They obviously kept a very people’s money, mine included. I would not recommend this game unless you have money to waste. I am a senior on a fixed income and I guess these folks need to take my money too.

A few days ago when I opened the game, it prompted me to look at their privacy policy. Since I had been playing the game for a while, I was surprised but I went ahead and did it. When I went to reopen the game, it had taken me down to level one. I was already close to level 2000! Silly me, because I enjoy the game, I actually spent real money on it. I am a senior, and sometimes I need something to occupy my brain. Now all of that money is gone, and they don’t respond to my requests. All I get is a canned response similar to what the people on this page get. So a word of caution. I don’t know how to fix it. I asked Apple to give me a refund for my purchases, and of course they won’t. I gave it a two star because I enjoyed the game, but the developers don’t seem to care about the people playing it.

This is a money-grab game & im not stupid enough to ever pay for any game I can’t believe there are many that would. Because where does it end? It doesn’t.
With that said; this can be a fun game but it’s too hard to distinguish between some of the colors & items. I do get needing to make revenue off of ads but the greed for 30 sec ads is over the top. Why would you ever develop a game that forces players out of playing it? If you lose all your 5 plays (very easy to do) it takes 1 hour+ to restore all 5 & at least 20-30 minutes to restore 1.
You’d think they’d want to give you the option of watching a 30sec ad to restore & stay in it.
Imo, some of these developers have no common sense. They must think they’re the only game in town. I have several match games that have options to advance w/o forcing me to leave. Who doesn’t like a challenge —but over-the top “I tried 3000 times to win this game” is about as asinine as it comes. No one wants to play a game that they simply can’t win or have to buy their way to the next level.
Do better.

I played this game for quite awhile and it was a blast. Was becoming one of my go-to games. So far I have been able to avoid spending money in the game. That is one gotcha in this game Ince you get really addicted. Recently they did make a change to make the game more fun as they say with their updates, or maybe I got to a higher level and haven’t spent money. The fun is that I now get to watch annoying ads for other games every time their is a game stoppage or game change for any reason, just like every other game I have seen in this software group. They want to get you interested in other games so you will download and play them, also. I prefer a game that I can just play and relax. I can’t relax when I am annoyed. This game is no longer fun when I am looking at ads almost as long as I am playing the game. Don’t get this unless you like commercials that last as long as your game or want to get into a money pit. I have more important things on which to spend my money than games.

I and others are having the same problems. I wanted to check the reviews to maybe find a solution to get past a level I've been on for so long I'm tired of playing it. The developer has the same exact answer to several reviews and it's not really helpful. The game is fun when you get a chance to play and advance. I feel the only way to do that is to purchase your way to the next level but that's just a bottomless money pit.

This game is just like every matching game ever. It started out being really fun. There is a challenge where you have to collect items to fill a bar to earn rewards. If you complete the challenge, your reward is 1000 coins. BUT as you get closer to the reward, the target becomes more and more impossible. I don’t think I’ve ever made it half way to completing the challenge. There were technical issues yesterday, which kept me from requesting and receiving free lives from my team. Customer support kindly gifted us with one hour of infinity lives. Which would have been nice, if I hadn’t been stuck on the same super hard level for 45 minutes of it. Which brings me to what makes this game so terrible. There is no rhyme or reason to when you receive hard and super hard levels. There have been times when I’ve had three hard levels in a row, or finally beat a super hard level only to be confronted by another super hard level. And you are sure to get one whenever you’re getting close to completing an objective, so that you either lose or spend real money trying to win. If you want a puzzle game that you can play regularly without having to spend real money, try Royal Match. They’ve recently added a lot of ways to earn coins, infinity lives, and power ups without having to spend real money. Tldr; This game is addictive in — in a bad way! Don’t get it!

I’ve been playing this game for several months now and truly experience hour upon hours of enjoyment. However if you reach an extremely difficult level and the time allotted is very limited it becomes truly frustrating. I have used more than 40 free lives on one level and still have yet to get past the short amount of time. I would rather lose points so the player could advance without having to play the same level 4 days straight. For this reason I gave 2 stars, otherwise it would easily be 4-5 rating.

WAY TOO MANY ADS!!!!! I understand free games need to have ads but one every level, that last longer than it takes me to beat some levels? Is ridiculous. I do love the game and the graphics! It’s challenging but still fun so I love the concept and actual game. I do notice though that it will select items I was not trying to click on which Is annoying as the bar gets filled without me knowing until I lose the round. Also sometimes after watching ads and trying to exit out, the game freezes. So it needs some work for sure and LESS ADS!!!

DON’T BOTHER! I actually love, loved, this game. But as of today, I’m stopping. First, I guess I quickly got over that it’s not the game they advertised, but that should have been a sign that the developers spend too much time trying to think of how to give false hope to keep the addiction (and hopefully get players to spend $). I have tried several times to get to the end of their cool challenges. But many, way too many games, are super hard and I’m pretty good at this. I PAID FOR NO ADS. But it’s still hard. impossible. and I play LOTS when I’m not working. I think this is the 7th challenge I’ve attempted. I’ve never finished a single one. I’ve spent a bit of $ buying helps, still unable to complete. This current bakery challenge 9/2/23, I thought after I got 130 cupcakey things, that would complete the 2nd to last level. But, no. I still need another 130 bun things (in 4 days) PLUS that final level will probably be 3 sets of 200. I’m done, a bit sad as I love this game, but failing to complete challenges in a favorite game, over and over, is too much. I will watch to steer clear of other Boom Box games. Bye

I have a few issues with this game. It is quite fun and relaxing, however, as soon as you run out of “cheats” to get through hard levels, your screwed. If you are working on an “extra hard” level (their wording) and you don’t have any cheats, it will be come so frustrating that you either give up completely or start shelling out cash. Someone called this a money grab game, and I see why. Second, the game play does not look like the game advertisement I saw - which made the game look appealing. I played up to level 1200 and never saw any different type of gameplay. Finally, there was a glitch where I could not complete a purchase. I thought it was on my end, so I tried to process a payment several times and did not get any coins. I ended up being charged for each transaction ($60 total). I submitting a request for a refund. It’s been three weeks (as of this note) and I still have not been reimbursed. I’m disappointed. I’m deleting this game because it’s too frustrating to play unless you throw money at it.

I absolutely loved this game for the first week or so. But once I reached a level around 250, the ads started, and not a reasonable amount of ads. Every level only lasts a minute or two, but there are now ads after every single level. And you can’t simply close the ad. You have to wait a bit for an option to close the ad, and then, you have to wait a bit again for an option to close the link to download TripleMatch3D .

I would have been okay if you could quickly close an ad after every level or if you had to wait to close an ad after every 10, or maybe even after every 5, levels, but having to wait not once but twice after every single level is a bit much, especially when you are racing against other players to win prizes.

The game went from being fun to being infuriating, and I was just about to delete it this morning, when I thought I’d try something. After I finished a level, I closed TripleMatch3D and reopened it. Yes, it takes a bit to to that, but it seems to be slightly quicker and a lot less stressful than waiting for the option to close the ads twice. I’m sure I’ll still delete it soon since I downloaded Match Factory the same day I found Triple Match and Match Factory hasn’t been bombarding me with ads, but I’m going to keep Triple Match for now so I can play it if I run out of lives on my Match Factory.

I feel like I was thrown into the deep end from the very beginning. There is no FAQ, or anything else to tell you how to play the game. You win *things*, but there is no explanation for what they are or how to use them- your only recourse is to use them and hope you didn’t waste something trying to figure out what it was for.

There are all these little side quests, and requests to join “teams”, but there is no information about how anything works. I guess you can earn extra lives and also ask for or donate them, but I have no idea how that works! And now there is a L O N G advertisement for a new App Store game after every. single. game, and they’re so difficult to win- I’m tapping my screen with a pencil to be as precise as possible in selecting objects, and even when the object I’m tapping lights up, it can select an adjacent object and now I’m OUT OF ROOM after I used 100 stupid coins to extend my playing time… OH WELL!

Another review mentioned that colors of objects can be difficult to distinguish, and that is absolutely true. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone who is colorblind or has any difficulty distinguishing similar colors, and I think this was deliberate. I Sick of the ads and I refuse to spend $$ to play, so I am *this* close to just giving up.

This makes the 3rd time this game has went black. I get up to around the 600 level and everything goes black and stays like that for days. I eventually delete TripleMatch3D and add it back in, losing my level but the good thing is I have not lost any $$ the 3rd time. I do think that’s why I get blacked out. The game has normal, hard and extra hard levels. You aren’t given very much time to do the extra hard levels so you lose a life. You are given way too much time to finish the normal levels. I can’t give this game 5 stars because they black you out if you don’t spend money. It’s froze up again for the 5th or 6th time. Glitches? Probably not.

I really like this game and am at the 200 level, but as the other reviewers said, it needs ads. Some of the levels are impossible to play without spending coins which is really not fair and makes me want to quit the game altogether. If you want people to spend money on the game, then don’t make it impossible or it pisses people off. Make it fun and passable so people want to spend money. Look at June’s Journey. They made tons of money from their game by making it fun. They got bought out and are changing though from Playrix who are a greedy company. You should not make it insurmountable to clear a level without playing coins. It is not an issue of being fast enough or having a good set of eyes. The pieces are hidden under the other items and are impossible to click on. Then you try to charge 240 coins for more time and some other high amount of coins for a lightening bolt.

I downloaded this game after seeing it in another game. It looked fun and it was for the first 200 levels. At first, they would offer an ad free version at a discount but there were no ads being shown. As soon as I hit level 200, the ads started and they are relentless. They come after every single level and it takes forever to get through them. You can’t just bypass them, unless you close the game out completely and go back in, which is surprisingly shorter than waiting for the ads to finish. I understand the company has to support itself and nothing is truly free but the frequency of these ads is obnoxious. I wouldn’t mind a banner running while I play or an ad once in a while but after every level is ruining this experience. I tried dealing with it but am now deleting the game and moving on. The ad free version is not expensive in the whole scheme of things but I’m not interested.

First of all, it is a very fun game, especially starting out. Now the thing that bothers me is I really don’t mind spending once in a while to support developers of games that I like. The problem with this game is that after you start spending, it definitely starts, analyzing your gameplay to encourage you to buy more. If you spend money, it continues ramping up aggressively until it’s almost unplayable unless you buy coins. I know this is true because I have tested on multiple devices spending on one and not the other after I started suspecting the AI interference . It would make the same levels harder on the device, where I spent money, to encourage me to blow through more coins. Then when I purposely lost enough levels and tried to save as if I were getting frustrated with the game and on the verge of quitting, it would begin to make the impossible level easier and easier. So I feel less inclined to support a developer that manipulates its players like this. I continue to play though less than I used to. And I refuse to pay another penny now that I know that it only makes the difficulty increase.

To the developers: I have enjoyed playing this game, it has been very therapeutic. I have reached level 2020 and have spent my money trying to get through the hard and extra hard levels. I will no longer be putting my money into this game. Th game has become too Frustrating and No Fun over time. As I have progressed through, you have made those hard levels way too difficult by taking away time (only 1min. 39seconds on some harder levels), hiding my time and lightning boosters deeply underneath, and the items to be found are small and burried under way too many different items to match and clear. As someone who has played consistently and paid money, my opinion is to either not bury the boosters, give more time for the level, or have less items on the board. I like for the levels to be harder as a challenge, but not where I have to use up everything you’ve earned by playing well to have to play a level over and over 15 times. Then when I make it through there’s another hard level or only 2 or 3 normal levels then back to hard again. This is the game trying to make you spend more money to make it through a level. Something needs to be changed.

The game maintains interest, and applies enough pressure to make you push to finish matches before time runs out. Difficulty increases at a decent pace. I love it. However playtime becomes limited quickly. The game pushes you to join a team to share and get lives. I did, but you can only give one life to a teammate, thus far. You can request one from a teammate every 4 hours or so. You have to wait 20 minutes to replenish a life and there are practically no reward efforts to get you an extra life after the initial download. The amount of wait time is a disincentive in harder levels because you can lose your lives quickly and end up waiting much more than playing. If it continues this way, I will likely delete it. It needs to be a bit easier to get lives to balance the waiting and playing ratio in order to maintain the enthusiasm. It would otherwise be a 5 star rating for me.

I’ve been playing this game for awhile now, couldn’t wait to hit level 300 because it would be a great milestone. I hit level 300, and then I stop playing and go to bed. I wake up in the morning and the first thing that popped up in my screen was an ad. Never happened to me before, I don’t know where it came from. And honestly I wouldn’t mind the ads if they were actually appropriate. I saw an ad the other day, with some guy in a bed with a girl in a bikini. That’s definitely not appropriate, especially for kids that love this game, either those kids won’t know what it means or they will and start getting the wrong ideas. For now, I will prolly just turn off my internet while I play. I like how the developer made it so that you only get ads once you hit a high level, that way your already addicted to the game and you watch the ads MORE
If your child wants to play this game, try to find a knock off version that doesn’t have ads

I’m on level 1,062 and I figured it’s time for a review. I downloaded this game because it was advertised that all the items would be on a stack of shelves. Yet, in every level, it is a pile of items you have to pick through. This is fine, it’s addictive, but it’s not why I downloaded the game. Why not advertise what it actually is, OR create the game you’re advertising! This is not rocket science, developers. Why be dishonest? Also, another thing that irritates me is that if I don’t pass a level - because it’s timed and sometimes one gets distracted or whatnot - when you play that level again, they change the items to make it easier, like I was too slow and stupid to do it right the first time. This is not fun! It’s insulting! It reduces the challenge! And that’s what I like about the game, the challenge. Aside from these two items mentioned, I like this game - obviously, since I stuck around for 1,062 levels. But this will probably be the last game I will download based on an ad. Color Blast was the other dishonestly advertised game.

The game itself is fine. If the ads irritate you, you can pay to have them removed, which isn’t unreasonable. But as the game continues, it becomes impossible to progress without putting extra money down. You start getting “extra hard” levels where the items you’re looking for are completely buried under other items and the time allotted is very short. After you’ve played it unsuccessfully 6-10 times and used up all your lives, voila, the items are moved to the top of the pile. There’s a not very subtle pressure to spend additional money on power-ups if you want to keep playing.

As long as you know what you’re getting into, have time to waste waiting for your lives to replenish, and can accept that the game is primarily structured to siphon money out of your pockets, it’s a decent generic match 3. Pay to play is pretty much the rule these days, and it’s hard to find any games that haven’t been turned into a money making scheme.

I would give it more stars but all this game wants you to do is spend money. You get 5 lives that are gone in a flash, especially if you accidentally hit a fallen object and fill you column which you have to pay to clear. The side games for rewards takes way to long to enjoy because you have to collect 60-90 objects to “paint, clear, or sweep” something but only get up to 3 of those objects per board. You rarely give 15 minutes of unlimited time as a reward and when you do, time starts immediately and then you have to jump through 10 secs of ads and so forth before each match so it’s wasted. I play Royal Match and I have received several rewards of u limited time, given chances for several free lives, played side games to earn rewards, and so on. I have also spent money on that game because it gives me more bang for my buck! The game is fun, my lives fill fast, and my team is great over there. Play it and learn from it. Otherwise, you will lose players and TripleMatch3D that has potential will be just another forgotten hoopla.

Takes 30 minutes to refill one chance to play and will only build to 5 chances. Some of the hard levels are very difficult to pass- either my iPad screen is very sensitive to touch or the area around the objects isn’t specific because I touch an object and the one next to it is selected. This causes the boxes at the bottom to fill with objects not matching and a chance is lost. Also, the timer seems to quickly run out on these levels. Rewards are few and far between, so there’s not much opportunity to build up rewards. Every 24 hours, the game gives rewards but they will not go far on the difficult levels. For example, one magnet and one freeze time. Sometimes it gives 15 minutes of play time but with ads after every game, which most of the time includes four clicks to get off of it, around 15-20 seconds, most of the free play time is consumed with ads. I suppose it’s designed this way so people will spend money to buy extra game chances. (I do realize ads pay for the game to be available to play for free.)

I LOVE this game and am seriously addicted like I’ve never been to any game. I would give it 10 stars if I could BUT! I would think twice about buying any additional play time or coins. Last night I spent $2.12 for an additional minute. I only got about 10 seconds and then my round timed out. I immediately wrote to their support staff. Twice. Both times I received a reply saying “sorry… we can’t refund you as you used your minute.” Oh really? Were you there next to me to verify that? I did NOT get a minute. Either the site crashed or there was a technical glitch, but I did not get a minute, wouldn’t lie about it, and these guys dishonestly made $2 for nothing. I have since escalated this up to Apple and hope to get resolution with them. Great game. Dishonest, unreasonable people. (Yes. I know it’s only $2 but it’s the principle of the matter.) Think twice before buying any in-app purchases.

Very addictive game that started out to be my new favorite go-to game. However, after the levels began to get more challenging, the fun began to fade. First of all, you must endure an advertisement after EVERY game, which wouldn’t be so bad except you don’t get any type of credit for watching it—no extra lives, no extra boosters, etc.—you simply must endure it in order to play again. Secondly, once you’ve used all your boosters on the more difficult levels, you aren’t able to get more unless you buy them with REAL money. (You do get a booster of some sort every 24 hrs, but you need more than that on harder levels.) Right now I'm on level 355 and have been for about a week. I’ve used all my boosters, so all I can do is play the same board over and over (with an ad between each play!), unless I want to shell out cash. Lastly, probably the most frustrating part is that you cannot earn “extras” unless you win the level. There are special items you can collect on each board. When you find a certain number of them, you win coins/boosters. However, you can only collect them if you beat the level. So, here I am, picking up gems, horseshoes, etc. to help me out, but because I can’t pass the level (because I don’t have gems, horseshoes, etc.) I don’t get to keep them. It’s a vicious cycle. There really should be ways to get extra lives/boosters.

On the good side this game is engaging and somewhat addictive. It’s not a good game for relaxation as the speed required makes it very high stress but it does get adrenalin going. On the negative side you usually only get to play 2 to 3 normal fun levels before it gives you the hard or super hard and even some of the non rated levels are pretty rough. Largely they are hard to win without the special tools. These are grudgingly parceled out after winning lots of games which means if you want to play for longer than 5 to 10 minutes you will need to spend a lot of money or just quit playing and come back later which is what I have done. Up to now there has been a daily reward which made it possible, over time to get what you needed to move on but tonight that disappeared from TripleMatch3D . I didn’t totally mind having to wait a week to get what was needed to win one of their ridiculously hard levels but If this is gone too it means it will be impossible to ever move on without emptying my bank account. Not much fun getting on a game and quickly losing. I suspect this may be the end of my engagement with this one. But if you have lots of money you don’t mind wasting, go for it.

A lovely game. Perfectly relaxing for the very FEW minutes you get to play before your five FREE lives are used up. After that, it seems the developer of TripleMatch3D is all about only getting us to spend money for more rounds…

Worse yet, thus is the ONLY game I’ve ever played where — after spending the goodly sum of $4.99! (Imagine!) — the game isn’t yours!!!

No unlimited gameplay! Zero. Zip. Nada. Thus, the reduction from what would be a deserved 5 stars down to only 3. Removal of the, also, impossibly long, long ads, after every round, needs to be far, far, far less if the game cannot be owned — and fully enjoyed.

Really cute graphics. Nice variability among rounds. The pieces are all rounded, fluffed, colorful, and really enjoyable to see. Now, at level 218, held up, with even the daily giften tool tokens not in play for the harder levels.

But the really chief drawback — even with infrequent chances to earn needed tools to help in the pretty regular hard and very hard levels (meaning one plays the same level over and over and over) — is the in-minutes-used 5 lives, putting gameplay to an END for several hours.

You’ll get HOURS of waiting for your $4.99, NOT hours of relaxing gameplay. Really, really bad…

I am happy to pay to remove ads from an app to make the experience more pleasant (and pay the designers) but I don’t think levels should be deliberately designed to stop you proceeding simply to get more $ out of you. There are also very few opportunities to gain aids as you pass levels. 1 week stuck on the same frustrating level with only the option to give more money doesn’t make it a fun experience anymore. Considering deleting even though it’s just my kind of game.

It’s a fun game however when you run out of time or fil the bar too quickly, you lose too much. Usually other games, you only have to watch an ad. In this game, you lose almost everything you just earned. Very difficult to get ahead to keep playing. And if I only have a little bit of time to play, I don’t feel like waiting 20 minutes to gain more ❤️ or $$ or ⭐️. I enjoying playing, but unless that changes, will look for another.

The game is fun; but there are aspects that are very frustrating. Some of the levels are unnecessarily challenging. On some levels there are items that are very small that inevitably are going to be at the bottom. You really don’t have enough time to get through all of the items to get to the ones at the bottom. I’ve seen comments about being able to get to items at bottom more easily, but I have not had that experience. Other than the initial tutorial on how to play the game, I have not seen any other suggestions or skill tips anywhere.

In other instances, there are items that are the same except for one minor detail. You may not even be able to see the difference until you pick up the item, which means you fill up your board and cannot advance. Some level seem to be designed to require you to use a booster. Once you’ve used all your boosters, you could be playing the same level for days.

I also am not certain how the events work. But for instance, the island racer event, if somebody is in the higherlevels playing against somebody who is just starting the game, the person who’s at the lower level is probably going to win.

Adds attached to this game now are crashing my iPad & the game friezes and then won’t start - especially when I’ve won levels & earned extra This is happening with ridiculous frequency & has me thinking it’s time to ditch this game permanently. Which is too bad because I’m in very high levels. :@(
P.S I’m now at level 406 - it used to be fun . Then at level 350 they added adds. If you opted not to pay to see them they ran for between 1 - 3 minutes & if you had already seen certain adds it won’t let you skip watching one without causing glitching . Then the game itself started freezing up & you had to shut your entire device down to even move on to other tasks. And it usually happens when I’ve won extra time in the game. I’m wondering if anyone else is experiencing these types of issues? I’m seriously on the verge of erasing the entire app from my devices. At this point I wouldn’t recommend any game from these makers.

I really love playing this game! One of my favorites ! After playing it for a very long time, (months and months,) I had gotten to level 1100 when suddenly my whole game disappeared and I was back on the first level. Freaking out I contacted support which finally got back to me, (I understand that they have few people answering many problems) They returned me to the level I had been at but all my tools and coins were gone,(I had so many!)and I was told I would have been able to recover them had I sent a screenshot of my progress so I am writing to alert others that this can happen and that you should take screenshots of your games in case it happens to you. I only gave 4 stars because it’s very hard to learn what all those tools can be used for and being a senior citizen I can use all the help I can get!
Definitely download this game but don’t blame me when you get addicted like I did!! LoL Just remember to backup your games and take screenshots!

I LOVE THIS GAME. I’ve played it most everyday since downloading it over a year ago. I took away a star because it’s just like all the rest—money grubbing. I will always pay an app to get rid of ads and I figure that $5 is my part to the developers. I wish I could download a photo. I’ve been on the same level for a week +. It gives me six items I must find. And I have to find 9 of each of them—in 2 minutes. There is no way to win unless you buy stuff. In order for me to “earn” anything it takes many hours of play and many more of winning the levels before they will give an extra minute. And on top of that they started stacking all the cute items about 5 deep. Even though I had to find 9 of each item they were all hidden. So I had to make sure I found all three before I chose what to get rid of. Even though there was 9 of each one! I had to get rid of a bunch of things that didn’t count first, so that takes a lot of time also. I’m really sad to have deleted the game. I suppose making a game for pure enjoyment is out of the question. These developers are taking it in.

I love this game but I agree with another review that other objects are constantly being selected causing the boxes to fill up and cost a life. Unless you purchase a package you don’t get much of an opportunity to get rewards. It takes me days to pass some levels. I’m almost ready to stop playing this game. I like the difficulty of this compared to similar games and prefer this one over those but the rewards or lack of is making me look to other games instead of this.

I would easily give 5 stars because this game is so addictive and great fun! But the only way to get rewards is by completing levels. So if you get stuck on a level- like one of those extra hard ones- there’s nothing you can do to help yourself (other than spending your own money- which I don’t plan to do too often).
I can’t think of a single other game I play that doesn’t allow watching ads to earn needed rewards!

I have become addicted to this game, which I have had only for a couple of months. I do have two complaints, though: 1) that it is ridiculously easy to accidentally tap an item you didn’t mean to, which I can understand when I’m on my iPhone using my finger, but I would think that using an Apple pencil on an iPad would make for more delicate, specific touches; and

2) I have a tendency to forget to keep track of the available spaces below, and often find myself out of space, which I know is my own fault; BUT having said that, there are many times when I was sure I had two available spaces left, but after touching the items needed to complete a match, I find the game ended with the notification that I’m out of space. The problem is that I can’t see where I went wrong (if I did) because that space is not only grayed out but entirely blocked by an ad. Can’t you run the ad separately so the players can at least see what mistakes they made?

I am enjoying the game. I even paid for it to get rid of the ads, and I don’t do that much! I did, however, download it initially because the preview showed the items not in a pile, but rather in shelves and cylindrical shapes…moving items up, down, and across to match three. I had already played the non-3D version with the piles, and tired of it after a while. Does this happen at some higher level? If not, then it is false advertising!

Also, one smaller detail about clicking on items bugs me. Even when I slow down and make sure I have highlighted the item I want, it often quickly switches to another item that I don’t need as I release. This in turn can fill my slots and ruin the game. Very aggravating.

Absolutely love this game. It will keep you very busy if you need something to pass the time. But there are a few issues. First off the game has several ads in between each game and you have to X off each one and some times it’s as high as 3-4 ad pages… it gets pretty frustrating if you get killed saying you accidentally hit the wrong item and you just started off on a new game. It will make you go back through and re-watch 3 to 4 more ads I mean even if you’re only five seconds into the new game, the ads are a bit much. Yes I know we could pay money and not have to look at the ads but with a lot of games it’s only one ad that you cross out of. I think it’s a little overboard on the ads. It takes up a lot of your time and it really makes you frustrated.
I’ve also noticed lately that there’s something buggy about the game I can be touching something on the upper right hand corner of my page, tap in one of the items and it’ll put two or three items that were down in the left-hand corner of the screen like I’m not even near that area so I don’t know what the deal is with that but I just noticed that this week so I don’t know if the game starting to get buggy and the creators need to look at it.
But all in all, it is a really fun game!!

I got hooked on this game really fast to the point where it was taking up hours of my time. However, it has managed to wean me from it quite a bit simply by getting to a point where it takes me as many as 15-20 lives to get through one level. Since I refuse to buy lives and don't want to be the one constantly begging for lives from teammates, I just quit playing until I'm up to the full complement of five lives again (a few hours) and get on with my real life -- a much better expenditure of my time.

One other criticism is that the harder it gets, the less receptive it is to taps on items. I've also tapped multiples of an item and only one ends up going onto my bar while the other simply disappears. Many items also get too small not only to tap but to be distinguished from other items. It got a lot less fun from Level 1000 on.

While fast playing the game, it will “pick” a similar item to your last pick. Almost difficult to change to a different item if a similar item is on the board. This is awesome and can allow you to snatch an item from deep below others. These rules go away when you only have one space left. With one space left you are often required to hold the item to be sure you have the correct one and it may switch when you let go - game over. This is not a lack of skill this is a feature written into the program. Notice how if you have only two of the same item and nothing else when you try to pick an alternate you often have to pick it twice. That doesn’t happen with only one space left. Often the game will chose an item that isn’t even paired with anything on the board. Just be careful with your last picks and try to run with more than one empty space. Good luck.

So I got so into this game that my 3yoiPad had to be charged while I was playing. Unlike other games, this one wouldn’t rotate/flip so that the cable would be at the top. So I was playing for weeks with cable against my stomach and…..charging port got damaged to where I had to adjust it juuust right to get it to charge. Other games just like this one will rotate….but I like the way this game flows and it must have some game play adjustment to where if I lose 10x in a row, it slowly begins to reduce the number of total items that one must sift through to *find* the right items. On every Extra Hard one, I have to start doing screen captures to finish, because it’s otherwise impossible. For some reason, I get many Extra Hard ones. Maybe I should play it less. I payed for ad-free finally. Other peeve: people who no longer play the game but joined a team and didn’t leave the team before quitting playing the game again…..CLOG the teams up with useless non-participants. Please set this game up to rotate so my charging cable comes out the top, and automatically REMOVE players from Teams that haven’t played the game in over 3 months.

This game is addictive! It’s great fun! I’ve told everyone about it and they have downloaded it too! I don’t mind ads…what I do mind is these ads are loud!!! I have the game settings on mute, but when the ads play, I have to click mute. Then I have to click skip, then I click and X, then I have to wait 5 sec to click another X. I play many games where the ads don’t make a sound and you only have to close the ad once. Developers…PLEASE fix this!

UPDATE IN RESPONSE TO DEVELOPERS: I know I could pay for TripleMatch3D , I am very aware of this.
You cannot close the ads quickly. And they are not QUIET! That is the main issue I have with the ads, that they make noise even though I have my sound turned off. Also, there is not one click, but four before you can close the ad. You have to click to stop the sound, then close the first part of the ad, then click done on the second part of the same and, then you must wait 5 seconds before yo can close the last part of the same ad. I am simply asking for you to remove the sound since my settings for the game are quiet. Thank you

It’s the most fast match up I have! First scan a 2- second look then pick your twins to make your triple. Higher and higher the levels quickly soar, clever coloring test your eye hand skill . I’m a glorious old hippie and I’m sailing thru this brilliant event. So glad there’s no witches ! Join me , join me, 4 free

I love this game! I’m a busy mom of lots of kids and I often feel like my brain is mush halfway through the day. I truly feel like playing this a few times a day has helped my brain wake back up and get focused again. I also have bad vision, and this is making me feel like I’m keeping my hand eye coordination up a bit, as you have to tap quickly and accurately for the whole game. I’ve had this game for just a few weeks now and I did purchase the no-ads version so I wouldn’t have to wait for ads to complete. I haven’t purchased anything else though, and I don’t think it’s necessary to - I’ve found that if there’s a level that is really challenging, maybe I’ve lost on it repeatedly for a few days straight, eventually the layout becomes slightly easier (like all the hard to find pieces you’re supposed to find will be on the top layer instead of the bottom layer) almost as if the game feels bad for me that I’m so terrible at it. 😂
I also like how satisfying it is to empty the board completely, or get all of one item, then all of another item.
Definitely recommend this game - I convinced two of my kids to play it, too!

I’m over level 2000 and thought it was time to write a review. I love everything about this game. There’s lots of ways to get lives, you can build up your bonus items easily, and the levels are the perfect difficulty. Some are easy some hard and some are really hard. The extra hard ones are still playable without purchasing anything, though it may take several tries depending on the level. None are impossible but you do have to be quick with your fingers which I have mastered pretty well. If you are not quick at clicking or visually identifying things, you may struggle with some levels more…but just know they are doable. I purchased the ad removal a long time ago and let me tell you: it is worth it!!! I don’t mind making purchases for this game from time to time because it’s not unfair or loaded with ads like other games. Download this, get the ad removal, and be prepared for hours of relaxing entertainment.

I had a problem with the game, I couldn’t advance for several days because the items were barely visible to me. I wrote to customer support and within 24 hours they responded and fixed the problem and I am now able to continue to play. The BEST customer service anywhere!!
I love this game!💜💜💜

This is a fun and very challenging game at times. Some levels are nearly impossible to pass, but I’ve figured out strategies that work to get past them by using the accumulated tools that I earn by passing other levels. I am on level 2,381, and I have not spent a single dollar in order to pass any of the levels and do not intend to. It is possible to play this hour after hour, for free, especially if you belong to a team with 4-5 actively playing members.

My one and only complaint is that the game freezes unpredictably from time to time. It takes turning my iPhone off and back on to unfreeze it. Maybe it’s our wifi or maybe the game doesn’t run well on unlimited data. Dunno. But it happens infrequently, so if that doesn’t bother you, and you like match games, this might just be the game for you.

The game is great for my 82 year old Grandmother. It’s really sad to see all the ads. It ruins the whole game playing. My Gram refuses to let me pay $4.99 to be ad free. She said that this game keeps her mind sharp. I understand your need for advertising but your game is really over the top. It’s to bad and in a way really sad. She wants to rate you 5 Stars because she has fun playing. She’s going to stop because of your over the top advertising. She asked me to find another game for her that’s free.

ETA: I was contacted very quickly regarding this problem, the solution was quick, easy, and effective. Thank you so much!

I was up to almost level 500 (I know, I need to get a life).I left TripleMatch3D to wait for lives to refill. When I went back,I was back to level 1!!!!!! I am so disappointed! I force closed and reopened, and it was still on level 1. I will NOT be playing (or spending $$$$$ on in app purchases) unless this can be fixed. :(

I really like your game. But I want to relax, not get my stress level up because I can’t pass a level. I’ve been on level 100 for a week and a half. I’m sick of it. I get it, plenty of people have passed that level, but I’m so frustrated I don’t want to play anymore. I want to relax. Not kill myself.

Update: The developer response is ridiculous and inane. I doubt they know what those words mean. Yes, I am aware that the levels get harder as you gain levels. DUH! My critique is that I want a nice simple game that I can lose myself in—not get stuck on a level for weeks at a time UNLESS I want to buy my way out. Obviously! I have better ways to spend my money than to buy lives, or coins, or time. And that’s your petty little game. My one-star review stands and I’ve taken the game off my phone and tablet. Don’t respond to me again. Or, if you do, find someone who understands English.

This game takes way to long to refill “lives” and it does not have enough rewards to allow a person to gain more lives without waiting 25 minutes to refill. Cookie Jam does a much better of job of providing ways a player can continue playing the game without having to wait an exorbitant amount of time. While this game is fun, it could be better at giving players more ways to continue playing, once out of lives, rather than pushing the player into making a purchase to do so. Additionally, if you don’t purchase this game upfront, you will be blasted with ads.

I noticed these same complaints comes up very often in the Reviews. At what point do the developers start to take this into account? Again, Cookie Jam has done a great job of giving players options for more lives, of course once you exhaust them then there is a wait time to refill but it is not 25 minutes or more!

I have played this game for years and definitely get stumped on th harder levels. But since the last upgrade the easier levels are rare and as soon as I get through an extra hard level, which takes many many attempts to beat and uses up a ton of lives, I just get another super hard one right after it. It’s not fun anymore with just playing the same level repeatedly!

This game would be fun except as you get higher up in levels, they make it impossible. Then when you lose, you can't play for another 30 minutes, unless of course you pay continually. I get the impression, they don't really want you to play the game. I was looking for a relaxing game, my work day is hectic enough, I don't need a "game" making it even more stressful.

Since the ads started last month they keep freezing so that I have to keep shutting it down. Infuriating!

I am on level 2290 and I am about to delete the app. 30 seconds of ads every 3 minutes is driving me crazy. I can’t deal with it anymore.

Fun but addicting. This game has the longest ads and (example UNDEROUTFITTERS) are hard to get out of. And Royal Match game advertising is too long and difficult to get out of.

The game is great BUT THE CHINTZY WAY THINGS ARE DONE IS VERY COSTLY IN TERMS OF BOOSTERS YOU EARN THEN LOSE, OR HAVE BOUGHT. Sneaky ways of stealing your hard earned boosters. For example, you need to use a lightning bolt and extra time to beat a level as it’s too hard otherwise and you’ve been on that level for days. So you thankfully get to the next level - which is easy …. Well you better turn off the boosters cause you’ll lose them again even tho you wouldn’t think of using them at this point. Also keep changing what you’re after at the same level. You fail looking for yellow butterflies and star again….you ,don’t notice yellow is now blue and time out but you got all the yellows. The option at the bottom of the banner goes from try again to allow you to do so. Suddenly it changes to keep playing and even tho you have no desire to continue you press thinking your going to start over only to find you’ve spent 100 hard earned coins to ciontinue at the level for 1 more minute when you have no chance of completing in a minute. They refuse to put in a verify key so they can keep screwing players out of coins, boosters etc and frustrate the hell out of you. Don’t start if unless you’re prepared to get screwed. There are other little tricks that are too many to mention so beware. ,

How is this game getting a 4.9/5when you read the reviews. I love this game BUT the moment I paid for it to be ad free I only get 2-3 games that are not HARD or EXTRA HARD often back to back ! There are some EH games that are virtually impossible without constant tools that cost money ( ie I’m hitting them fast and furious scoring with most hits and still running out of time) I have started just waiting for it tick over and have kinda lost the enthusiasm for it. It was fun for awhile - now it’s mostly frustrating and amusing intermittently.

This could be such a fun game BUT it takes almost all rewards you gain when you get to a VeryHard game which averaged every tenth game . I persisted and am in the 2000’s but the ads became relentless- took another gamers advice and paid for the ad- free. Now they know I have a credit card! The Hard and VeryHard level has started to cycle roughly every 2-3 games to try and get me to purchase rewards. I have lost enthusiasm due to the mercenary nature. So rather than loving it and spreading the word - I see it as a once or twice a day run and when I inevitably lose every third game and exhaust any rewards I might have - I turn it off and wait for the time to tick over. Such a waste of a great game.😢

This app caused my phone to lose functionality including other apps being corrupted, super-fast battery drain, and freezing. I deleted it after noticing banking apps freezing and unable to open. Dangerous is all I can say.
