Blocks Ropes Reviews

Not much help figuring the game out in the beginning. AND why don't you let me play without ads for long enough to get really hooked. I have cancelled dozens and dozens of apps because an ad pops up after each try and long before I care about the game. So another delete.

Like the title says, it’s good at wasting time up until you get to the level that you can’t pass. Cleared all of the blocks and it just sits there. Even watched an ad to skip the level but it just gets stuck.

Edit: I wasn’t complaining about the ads, I’m complaining about a specific level that you can’t beat or pass. There’s another review mentioning it as well so it’s not just me.

Dad loves this game, he use to tell everyone about how fun it is and how it makes him think. He has dementia and he’s trying to keep his cognitive skills sharp as possible. But he’s ready to delete the game cause 90% of ads are Royal Match, we understand that the ads are necessary to keep putting free games out. But come on, not only is it annoying, but it takes for ever trying to get out of the ad, and when he does the music follow and plays over the game. Sometimes it will pop back to BlocksRopes and you have to fight to get out of it again. He says fix it or he done.

This is an interesting game. It’s interesting and compelling to play. I really enjoy it. There is one major problem: there is a glitch that causes it to get stuck on a level with no way to complete it. I’m currently STUCK on level 421 with no means of moving on except to watch the ad to skip the level. The problem with that solution is that the same issue occurred in level 41 and several before it. What’s the point of the game if I have to skip levels to move forward?? If this glitch was fixed it would easily be a 5 star game.

I understand it’s a mobile game and y’all make your money off of ads but this many gambling ads? As of the time of writing this the games age rating is 4+, I could be remembering things wrong but wasn’t it illegal to advertise gambling to children? Game could be better just less ads.

I am SO ANNOYED with the newest update. I loved this game bc there was no pressure - no timer, no restriction on the number of moves, no competition, nothing to “beat” except the puzzle itself. The newest update added a move counter and it has completely ruined my enjoyment of the game. Now instead of being relaxing, it’s frustrating and anxiety inducing. This w is a maps fail and would love to continue playing if an option to remove the move counter is added. Otherwise I’ll be finding a new low pressure puzzle game 😒

The game is original and interesting. You will enjoy it for a little while. But it all boils down to figuring out the first move. Maybe the second move. After this, the level is solved. So it gets old too quickly despite the original idea.

The game was very relaxing while still being challenging. Now there are all of these white lines and it makes the graphics busy and causes me more anxiety than the game is worth. Please go back to the old graphics.

I constantly have to change the sound setting as it NEVER stays turned off. I use my phone to play music almost 24/7 so it’s a huge pain when I’m constantly having to toggle the sound settings because it will NOT stay muted 😡😡

So it is a fun game but on some levels at first it seems not possible. The problem is that the cords that attach the blocks are a little stretchy. Some corners you won’t be able to just do a normal drag around. You have to do a quick hard pull. On some of the “impossible” levels, you have to give room to do a big hard pull by leaving a gap and stretching it past what it is supposed to be. Should just make it where it can go around the corner or not. If that doesn’t make it difficult enough, make it where the cords can get tangled or something. Having to do a hard force pull 30 times until it pops over just doesn’t make sense.

It’s a cute game that wastes time in the wrong way. Even at level 180 a lot of the levels are still simple enough to solve within the thirty seconds it takes for an ad to play, and I’m not that good at this game. I wouldn’t have a complaint if the ads were shown every few levels but they are almost in between each. That means you’re spending nearly an equal amount of time watching ads as you are playing the game regardless of how long you’re playing. If you really enjoyed the game I can understand why you’d pay to remove the ads but the levels not becoming more challenging as they increase is another reason not to continue playing.

I actually really have enjoyed this game. I love thinking through how to get the cubes free. If you asked me yesterday, I would have rated it 5 stars. However, with today’s update, there are now oddly looking white lines tying the cubes together that look really cheesy and are way more confusing and cluttered than before. Revert back to how it was please!

There’s no way to buy a version with no ads? That’s really annoying . I like the game concept though I would keep playing if I could buy off the ads

I used to love this game despite all the ads: it is creative, alternatively challenging and easy, visually interesting and relaxing. A recent update added a "max moves" component and I no longer find it as relaxing or interesting. Instead it's frustrating that I can't fiddle around and explore. It's really too bad--the game is great otherwise.

This is a fun game but one I can do while multitasking. It just gets boring after a while. If there were weekly events or a challenge mode with a leaderboard this would easily be my favorite game and I could see myself playing this for hours. But until there’s an addition like that I won’t play that much. Great if you need to kill 5 minutes.

*if the game gets updated with additional features, I’ll update my review and rating

This is one of the new “annoyware” class of game. Not only will it show you an ad after every level, it will make you close 3 or 4 different screens at 5 second intervals before you can get back to your game. The intent, of course, is to force you to shell out the $3 by making the game otherwise unplayable.
I do give 4 stars for gameplay, minus one for annoyware. If you’re willing to pay, it’s ok - it’s just not enough better than other puzzle options out there to make that $3 worthwhile to me.

The TNT blocks have a frequent problem where you match them, and they don’t explode, but drift apart. They’re impossible to connect after that, and you can’t finish the level. I’m stuck on level 399 because of it. Otherwise, it’s one of my favorite puzzle games. The bug is just annoying and makes it unplayable!

Only thing is after about 500 levels the game stops utilizing all the mechanics it introduced? It uses the block that can't move mechanic and that's pretty much it for most the rest of the game with a few exceptions. Also don't know if 957 is broken or the game ends there

The puzzles aren't very challenging but this game is pleasantly relaxing.

Games like these can benefit from competitive stats like "achieve a gold star if completed in 'X' amount of moves." It's something the developers may want to consider for keeping players invested.

A mild annoyance that should be fixed–Watched an ad to receive a gift but it ended up freezing the game after I watched it... Not only did I not receive the prize after I rebooted the game but I had to do the level over.

The music is nice and mellow. I usually turn sound off so great job on the sound/music.

It’s a perfect game. But I think it’s pretty easy, even SOMETIMES the HARD levels are easy. But either was it pretty good. Tho if I was the makers I would definitely put a [HARD GAMEMODE] option like on the side or something. Otherwise that I think the game is fun, easygoing, and perfect graphics 😍

Okay so this is a really good brain puzzle app and i play it all the time, i was stuck of this one level and i feel when i thought i was close, it confused me. The skip level button is alright i guess but i would want to see how you solve it. So i’m thinking maybe a hint button would make the game even better because we would still have to do the puzzle and figure it out still while getting some help. But over all the game is good and the update is pretty cool 👍🏾 just wish there was a hint button. 4/5 is still a good rating and great updates, excited to see what’s next!

Before a week ago, I would have given this a five star, but I got on today and it had something I have never seen on the game. (Btw I’m at a level in the 400s) There was this floating, spinning block in the middle of the board. I say floating because there was a block underneath it too. It had the bubbles skin ( the one I had equipped) so I thought it was just a glitch and it would go away after I finished the level. It didn’t. Then I figured it would go away if I changed my skin. Still, it didn’t go away. I don’t know how to get rid of it.

Other than that glitch, the game is pretty great overall. I’ve been trying to play every game to level 1000, and all of them repeat the same levels over and over again. But not this game! I haven’t seen any repeated levels yet.

I really like this game. But occasionally I’m struggling to pull a block to the edge of the board… and it’s only after repeated attempts to yank the piece that it finally moves into position. If it’s possible to move a piece, it shouldn’t be so hard to get it over there.

Additionally, there are things that seem completely meaningless to the game itself. I play often enough that I “advance” to new locations (beach, garage, etc.), but that changes nothing about the game in any way (meaningful or otherwise).

Also, I’ve played long enough that new challenges have come and gone and RARELY appear again. I’d like to see a greater mix of the different challenges (colored ropes, for instance) as I complete more levels.

I really love this game, the fact that I can play it even if I only have a couple minutes because there are no time limits or move requirements and that way I can really take the time to figure it out. I do wish that there was a hint button because when I just skip it if I can’t figure it out then I don’t see how to clear it and I don’t learn from it then but that’s why I took 1 star away.

I was loving this game until the recent update adding the white lines between the cubes. Please make a way to play without the lines!

Interesting brain twister of a game. The only change I would suggest is a level reset option. Currently if you back yourself into a corner that makes the level impossible the only option is to skip that level. Not good!

I’ve been playing with the sound off this whole time, and only now did I realize it’s got sound! gentle music and squishy block sounds <33 very nice
I do wish it had less ads, but I suppose it’s gotta make money somehow. and id rather have it like this than have to pay for the game

Pay the 3$ and zap the ads - it is completely worth it after that. It’s chill, it’s satisfying, the music is relaxing and it’s just a great way to distress for a minute during work or whatever.

I like this game. I have to use my brain to play it. I do wish there was a way to reset the puzzle.

In either going to find the end or find god whichever comes first

Game is very well done. Animations are actually incredibly impressive for what i was expecting. After a bit of time though i will say it does start to get a little repetitive. I would recommend this game to just about anyone.

I love these brain teaser games and hate the pop-up ads, so I love when I can just pay once and play without ads. However I would be happy to watch an ad for a hint when I get stuck!!

Interesting brain teaser! Needs a level reset option rather than a skip button. A workaround I figured out is to close down BlocksRopes and go back in that resets the level. I also would like an option to buy the game rather than to have ads after absolutely every level. It’s exhausting!!!

This game is so adorable and I really like it! I don’t have ads removed unless I actually like a game. This is fantastic!!!! Music is also very relaxing. It doesn’t feel scammy at all. They only thing you pay for is to removed the ads and it’s not overly priced like some other games. It doesn’t even force you to use the items you gain. You can save them! Thank you for being smart with your game!!!

Thank you for fixing it so I could see all the blocks I have won so far! Having to rewrite my review, not too cool! Again, I am enjoying this game. The designers are very ‘sneaky’ inventing all sorts of problems for us to solve…PERFECT! When I catch a new style, I laugh because I really like the challenge! I really like having all the blocks to choose from…thought they were gone for good yesterday! I won the crystal ones today! Relaxing and fun…Paid for no ads…worth it, definitely! Later!

Love the theme and design of the game. Hopefully this game is endless, and adding some skins or boosters would be ideal.
