Unblock Me Reviews

by Prince Zordar

I’ve played this game for years and was always happy to see more levels being added. Unfortunately the developer has decided to go the route of ads every other level - some of which you can’t even get out of. I get it. It’s a free game. The developer has to make money somehow and that usually means ads in the game. But when it showed me an ad for Angry Birds 2 that insisted I actually demo the game and gave me no way to get out of the advertisement and back to the block puzzle, that’s when I said enough. Sadly, I deleted the game. I have no trouble supporting developers but it seems like the advertisements are becoming more and more annoying which makes the game less enjoyable. If the game wants to play a video that is not of interest to me, fine I’ll put the iPad down and come back when the video is over. But when the video ends and there’s no way to get back to the game, how is that fun?

The game itself is decent, but the developer has decided to irritate and antagonize users by inserting a link screen to other games that appears just before you click "next game" after solving a puzzle. The screen advertising the other games will appear randomly, so even if you wait a few moments to see if it appears, it still might show. The game designer has also added a new ad for a car taxi company beginning with "u" that is unbearably intrusive; it cannot be cleared and tries to force you to download an app for that taxi company. I might delete UnblockMe; this is not acceptable an apple should take action to stop this - very, very annoying.

This used to be a simple fun app, but it looks like the developer's greed has driven them to take some stupid actions. I recommend d/l a different puzzle app.

I just downloaded this game and I wanted to play it as I’ve played it in the past and it was a great way to kill tim and relieve stress. But I find myself getting more irritated due to the fact the game keeps freezing. It has happened several times. One if I’m playing the game and an ad pops up and I close it when I go back to the game it’s frozen. I can’t do anything. And two this also happens when I switch between apps or messages and then back to the game again it’s frozen. Each time this happens I have to clear my apps and then start over again. It’s very frustrating. If this part would be fixed I would be happy to update and change my review but at this point I don’t even want to play the game if I have to continuously go in and out of UnblockMe ... please fix! This is a great game! Btw I have an iPhone XS Max

I completely understand the need for ads as a revenue stream for an app developer, do not like it but I get it. However, this game has ads that are inappropriate for the marketing age (4+). The Unblock Me game itself it fun and my grandchildren loved it, so it gets a one rating for the actual game itself. The ads shown are another issue. An ad for the game “Sniper” showed up, complete with a man headlocking a woman while putting a gun to her head; while other characters were shooting others. What a horrible game concept! When this game developer was notified, their response was “there is nothing we can do, since we have no control over what ads an advertiser uses.” Wrong response! It is their game and they should have total control over the type of ads shown under their name. I deleted this game.

I used to have this game and loved playing it. I had recently downloaded it again and the ads are excessive...a couple of screens of the unblock game and up pops an ad which plays for a rather long time....no way to stop it until the time runs out; then you also have a second screen to close to return to game. Like I said, I deleted it. Ads have ruined an otherwise fun game.

Has gotten steadily worse and it is because of the advertisements they choose to allow. I am never opposed to ads. The game developer has every right to make money and I have an option to pay for the upgraded version BUT. No app should ever allow scam ads that ask for personal info or “free iphones” or allow ads that cannot be closed even after 2 minutes without crashing UnblockMe . I am deleting UnblockMe. I’d consider the paid version but will not give the company money just because they will hold my phone for ransom if I do not buy the full version. Have some standards.

This game used to be a relaxing/challenging game to take your mind off things. After re-downloading this game I noticed a large difference. The game is the same but now the devs are throwing forced ads down your throat after every third level. You can skip after about five seconds and you can remove ads for $1. Which I am not so fond of. I am glad it’s not like some games where they charge $3+ but if they want to make money, why not use their brain instead of greed and make it so people can pay to have different themes and to encourage that, add gems or whatever to unlock a level or two. I don’t know. It’s a fun game that has change into a fun game with forced ads hence the 3 stars.

I have enjoyed UnblockMe for years. It has worked well. However, over the past year or so, I have been weeding out apps that collect data not needed for UnblockMe to function and, particularly, apps that use data to track users. (Note: I would even be willing to pay a little in exchange for not having my data collected and used to track me.) Because of UnblockMe’s disappointing privacy practices, sadly, I am removing this otherwise nice, enjoyable game from my device.

I love this game because it was so addicting at first but now that I want to get back to playing it . It had this update with ads which get annoying while you were playing . This game is one of the few without the ads popping out but now they have them which can get annoying , please help in fixing it . While playing it then an ad pops out of nowhere .

A note for the devs, I know there are different themes for backgrounds, but the original themes have seem to have aged rather poorly. To me they look a little smudged, like petroleum jelly is wiped over it. Is there anyway you could make a 2020 HD theme? I do like the newer themes past the 5th anniversary, as they look amazing!

Fyi to the buyers of this, buy the ad free version for 99¢ you will not regret it!

Unblock me is a fun, do when you’re bored game. It has no violence and no uncomfortable things. It has different settings like relax mode, multiplayer mode, and challenge mode, if you like challenges. I play it for about five hours a day and it never gets old. When I was little I had Unblock me and I figured out fifteen problems on my own, since then I’ve played this game a lot. I gave this game five stars because it brings back memories of my three year old sister Eve, who was sitting on the floor ripping up a book. I sat down next to her and shows her the game. I helped her figure out how to play and eventually she got the puzzle all figured out. Me and my momma clapped and Eve did to.

My mom and I have been playing this game for years and years. Every time I get a new phone I download this game. I don’t really mind the ads because I just shut off WiFi. I think this game is one of the best and most relaxing games I’ve ever played. Like the other person said, keep up the good work. Also, the other person said the game is so addicting. I agree with that

I’ve been playing this game since high school, which was between 09 and 13. Don’t remember when exactly it was, but every time I drift apart from it I find myself playing it again when life gets hectic again.

It’s an amazing game for relaxing and winding down.

The #1 top game on the iPhone.

Though if it’s not too much to ask can you please fix the bug that forces me to click “restore purchases” every time I load UnblockMe ? I’d pay the $.99 again if I was certain it’d fix the ads thing, but I’m worried I’d get salty and begin to hate it if it doesn’t and it still makes me restore my purchases every time I enter the game.

UnblockMe is my favorite!! it is so engaging! I was skeptical of the free version but has so many puzzles and levels of difficulty so you can challenge yourself. It doesn't require access to wifi which means i can play anywhere. The ads are minimal. I've complete nearly 2000 puzzles and have so many left to complete! love this game! i would definitely reccomend!

by Dev Plz Notice Me

To people reading this (and possibly the developer 🍪🙃) this game is heavily underrated because it looks so basic but when you play it, you can actually have fun! This is honestly the best kind of puzzle game that I have ever played.

To dev: can you please add harder levels? I completed the whole thing and I’m excited to see if you got an update up your sleeve 😏

by Dash5star

I love UnblockMe, I find it very entertaining and addictive. It’s super fun, but anyone who is looking for a challenge, this is not UnblockMe for you. I have only been playing this game a few weeks and I am already on level 300 never using a hint. None of the levels get harder or easier. They pretty much stay the same amount of challenging. However, no hate, this is a great game! Thanks for reading. 🙂

This is a game that makes you think. I enjoy playing unblocked and have enjoyed playing it for several years.
You can play this game for a couple of minutes or a couple hours. It’s not one where if you have to stop in the middle of a Quest or episode you lose everything that you’ve done. I like the different themed blocks that they give you. It’s a fun game so give it a try, you’ll enjoy it.

This was the first game I put on my iPad quite a few years ago, transferred to my recent iPad and if I up grade in the future it will go with me again. I enjoy it without feeling pressured, and I like not constantly being made to pay so I can move to the next level. All together a well developed game that has remained easy to use and enjoy. I wrote this ears ago and it still stands the test of time. This is the only game I've never deleted from my iPad.

When my mind is overloaded with too many things to figure out, this game is the perfect way to get some simple, structured problem-solving "down time." It's just challenging enough to keep me stimulated, but so far always solvable. The mind calms down, and I can gear up for bigger problem-solving. This is the only game that I haven't got bored of after playing many times, and there seem to be endless combinations. It's also my go-to distraction for long waits. Much better than a fidget spinner!

I’ve been playing this game since before I even had a phone (I played on my grandpa’s phone). Of course, now there are ads, but I play this often enough (and complete the puzzles too quickly) that I payed the small fee of $0.99 to get rid of them. Totally worth the money. This is the only game I ever need and I get bored of games easily, but I’ve not gotten bored from this. I can usually complete each puzzle in about ten seconds but there are always more!

I recently ran into a weird bug or glitch that made the game think I didn’t have an internet connection and support has been very responsive and friendly. I somehow managed to get rid of it by deleting, reinstalling, and toggling the cellular data connection in iPhone’s Settings on and off several times. 5 stars for making an awesome game and being very helpful.
