Flow Free Reviews

by Bettyslocombe

I love Flow Free. I give it five stars, however, I hate the new navigation changes made in the latest update. Darn, I keep forgetting to turn off automatic updates. There used to be forward and back arrows on every puzzle so you could change puzzles whenever wanted. Now there is a big light bulb right in the center to purchase hints which I keep accidentally hitting and no forward arrow at all so you have to back out to the puzzles to choose a new one. I liked the old way because sometimes you find a puzzle hard and just want to skip forward knowing when you come back later you will be able to see that puzzle differently and be able to solve it. I suppose the light bulb is there to make money selling hints, but I am never going to confirm the purchase of a hint even if I accidentally hit it. Maybe I will get used to it, but it sure is annoying. It was perfect before. Don’t change a good thing.

I like logic games and started playing when my son showed me this one. It’s attractive and simple to explain. In fact, I wonder if this would be good for people with dementia or other conditions that affect their verbal abilities since it’s essentially non-verbal. I like that there are logical patterns you can discover to make solving faster as you progress. I was happy to pay to get rid of the ads.
I have two suggestions for the daily puzzles. First, fix the streak counter. I went on vacation somewhat off the grid and didn’t play for a few days but the game still shows me with a long streak. If I have a streak I want to have earned it. Second, when there is a mix of difficulties make them progress in difficulty. I love that little hit of endorphins when I solve a relatively hard puzzle and when it’s followed by a very easy one it’s kind of a downer.

I’ve been playing this game for several years. Sometimes I play so much that when I look around a room, I’m imagining drawing the lines around objects on the wall. It’s not hard, especially once you figure out the method to solving them, but some of the higher difficult levels do take a few minutes to solve, which I think is a good balance. It’s not frustrating but not always too easy. It’s satisfying and good to do if you’re just hanging out or waiting for something.
It has a daily set that lets you build up a streak, but missing a day just sets the streak back a day instead of resetting to zero. Hints are pointless because all the puzzles can be solved without them if you just keep working on them.
Try the game for free and, if you find yourself enjoying the free levels, I’d definitely recommend buying all the packs. Some of the packs include some new twists to the boards that make it more interesting. They add new packs to the game every once in a while, which really makes it worth coming back to.

I’ve played this game for literal years, it’s fun, it’s challenging, it really gets me thinking and helps kick start my brain in the morning. However, I have noticed one thing I don’t like about this. I was playing recently when I noticed something new about the daily streaks, and I felt my heart kinda sink. Apparently, if you don’t play every day, then your daily streak, instead of staying frozen on days you don’t play the game, will count backwards, and you have to actively keep your streak up. I don’t like this new feature as there are days when I just don’t have time to play games, and coming back to see something like my daily streak suffering because I just don’t have time to sit down and play a game, it really kinda upsets me. Still a really fun game though, and I play it whenever I can as I do genuinely enjoy it, but I will forever be annoyed about the thing with the daily streaks

Flow free is a game where you have to connect lines. You have an amount of moves and it shows your best amount of moves for that level. What makes this game great is that it is logic and common sense. Also, it’s the fact that it helps your brain really think which two lines should go where so the other lines connect. This is also satisfying seeing them connect. Another thing I like is how they always get harder level by level and scoreboard by scoreboard. I like the idea of them creating daily challenges. The game is perfect really. It’s very creative and really causes your brain to think. It’s like a fun, creative, brain game and I like the idea of that.
One thing that flow free should add is a challenging level where you have a certain amount of time to connect 20-30 lines. Another thing should be versing other players to see who can connect the lines or complete 1 entire scoreboard quicker. These two game modes should be called “Expert Level” and “Competitive Level”. I hope flow free can use one of my ideas. Therefore, this game is great but can use a couple game modes.
Once again, thank you for reading this.

I love playing puzzle games that progress and eventually get harder. This though, is my favorite one. This game gives a whole section for one size, unlike other games who feel free to make things big or small in the first 10 puzzles. I have the other flow games, but this is a smart force to be reckoned with! A 9 year old COD player that plays this would say “ugh this game is stupid. It doesn’t even have supply drops.” I say fk you. 😜😜😜. This game is great. It gets you distracted when you have nothing better to do, plus some extra with their other flow games. I wish they would make another game with multi flow game boards in one game. Just think of it. Hexes and bridges in one level. EPIC!!!
This game is great and I hope you make awesome changes to make this game better and better.
Best of luck,

Download this game and try it you will soon later be obsessed with it,just like me. On a long car ride? Download this game! Flow Free is amazing because it just helps time pass by ! How? You ask ,Flow Free helps time pass by because its just so relaxing and then your in that moment and as soon as you know it BOOM 💥 your already returning back home from that long car ride !(trust me it happened to me ) Stressed out? Play this game ! This game releases my stress and Im sure it’ll do the exact same thing with you too😀 In for a challenge? I recommend doing the countdown and you can even pick what levels you want to play OH AND BEFORE I FORGET you can choose how much time you want! Anyways I will leave you alone, I know you’re downloading the game! I can’t really get into the details too because Im trying to beat my high score ! Bye and I hope my review will interest you into downloading this game ! (I recommend downloading it) 👋😊😀😀

I play this game on both my iPhone and iPad and have completed all the levels, but when I tried to load more of the same game types there is none. I send a email to the support asking if I could buy more games but they say there is no more. I guess I will try doing a Reset and see if I can start over. Ken

I started over and built up to 330 hint’s, but then in the middle of one of the games the screen on my iPhone 8 when BLACK. I tried to switch it by going back to the main screen, but no luck. So I went to FlowFree Store to see if there was a new revision and downloaded it. The game came back on, but I lost all of my 330 hint’s. Bummer, but will start gaining them back. So anyone who reads this, beware cause you really don’t know when the screen will turn Black!

I've had FlowFree for a while and I've been addicted to it the entire time! My streak is at 504 days, but I'm sad because I'll be changing phones tomorrow and I'll have to start completely over. I'm going to continue to do the daily puzzles but I wish I could keep my streak. Overall this game is an amazing tool for an overactive puzzle brain. I've bought all the extra packages, and some colors! I enjoy switching which pack I'm working on and I like that I can go back and do the easy ones when I don't want a challenge! Hexes is my second favorite and I have a streak of 367 days on that one. It keeps me busy when I'm nervous and It's my go to app when I need a break from people. I listen to audio books and just blow through puzzles crazy fast, SUCH an amazing game for an active mind!!! I would rate it 10 stars if I could!!

This review has been brewing for the past few months. I recently finished every level perfectly after 3 years. And I am glad to have been a part of this journey. I breezed through the beginner levels, noticed tactics, solved the puzzles in ways that were probably not intended. But as I grew, this game grew as well. I slowly noticed that the levels evolved, they no longer had errors, past easy tactics no longer worked, and levels truly became difficult. The last 15x18 levels were some of the most well designed levels in the game, being truly challenging. This game has been a big part of my life and I will be sad parting ways with this wonderful game. I won’t be playing the other games since I will become to busy, but this game will always be in my heart. It’s been a unforgettable 3 years.

Always on the hunt for a fun, challenging puzzler with a calm, chill atmosphere; and I’ve tried a lot! Thankfully, a few puzzlers are so exceptional I come back to play again & again: Flow Free is one of those faves, & it’s been a fave go-to for years! The basic concept doesn’t even require instructions, but they steadily increase in difficulty, and naturally enough to enjoy & not be overwhelming. Oh, & on top of the standard game levels, there’s also daily puzzles, bonus packs, packs of just one difficulty level, and even sample packs of the game with a lil twist (which are also available as a separate app)! You can pay a little for no ads, &/or extra daily hints, but it’s truly not required to enjoy the game, & doesn’t bombard you with ads either! It’s more than worth the lil pocket change to support one of the best puzzlers!

I'm a teenager I like this game but I like to think that some of the levels are a bit too easy for me but I know it's meant for four year olds and up but I would like to see a new update of FlowFree for older kids (such as myself) but I would also like it not to be too hard for younger kids but I know it is important for the creators to earn some sort of money from people playing FlowFree but I really do think that if you can make it harder for teenagers (like me) to have a bit more of a challenge but like I said not too hard for younger kids but I really do like FlowFree but if you could pleas (the creator) to make at least an update on this particular game so that older kids can have more of a challenge to have. And I like to solve these kind of puzzles but I would really like to see and update on FlowFree.

I've played free flow for over a year now and am so excited about the latest updates that I've finally decided to write a review. This series of games is great for puzzlers who need a break from the big universe games that are super time intensive. Also, if you enjoy 1010 or BlockHexa, this is for you. The first few sets of some levels are laughably easy, but I use the easier levels to practice dexterity with my non-dominate hand and they are good for younger folks and days when I just want to unwind. Similar to Monument Valley and Euclidean Lands, the more complicated levels challenge your spacial orientation with warps, bridges, and walls. Even without those obstacles, some of the larger boards make it tough enough to be fun, but not obnoxiously impossible to solve. I also enjoy the challenge of going back to the puzzles that took me multiple attempts and re-solving them to get a perfect score. Thanks developers!!!

I’ve been playing this game in my free time for several years now. It’s a great puzzle game to keep your mind sharp. I like to see how fast I can run through levels while I wait for my shiftly meeting. Each time I complete a level I say, “Byea.” out loud. The guy next to me figured out what it meant after a couple weeks. The game has hours if not days of free puzzles, ranging from easy to very difficult. Occasionally I get stuck and move on for a bit, then come back to it later. Every time I think I’ve almost completed the entire game, the add a few level packs to the free game. The best thing though, the one thing I was worried about when I got a new phone was losing my progress in this game. But it was awesome, the game linked my progress to my Apple account. So I was able to pick up right where I left off.
Sure, there are adds. But I typically play offline. So they’re not as bad.

Flow Free is one of the best, if not the best, game that I’ve played on my phone. I’ve been playing it for just about five years now, in addition to its counterparts Hexes and Bridges. It’s something that I find entertaining to do in my free time. I have just about every level complete from the most recent update and I have 1,446 day streak on. But that brings me to the one issue I have with it. I have noticed in previous versions of FlowFree , when you have a streak and you forget a day, you lose the entire streak and go back to zero. But with the most recent update, if you lose a streak, you number simply goes down by one day instead of losing it entirely. In a way, this doesn’t keep me as motivated to keep up with my streaks on the apps, and has me slightly less enthusiastic to play the streak. However, I will continue to play this game because of how fun and addicting it can be.

When ever I’m bored and I don’t want to play Roblox ( I try not not to play Roblox 24/7 ) I play this. It is the best game ever! But, I have one suggestion. Why can’t you make your own puzzles for you to try and beat? Anyway, just a suggestion! You don’t have to do that if you don’t want to. Report: no bugs spotted! Report: awesome game! If your the lazy, calm, and chill kind of person, this is totally the game for you! When I said no bugs spotted 🐜 🕷 🐛, I really meant no bugs spotted! (So far.) So, I’ve downloaded this the day I got my iPad, ( I had a phone but lost it and found it a year later under the couch cushion but wouldn’t turn in and yes I tried charging it that didn’t work and the charger was brand new) and I loved it! ( I got half of my friends and family to download it. ) ( That’s how good it is! ) Of course, some of the puzzles are kind of hard, but don’t give up! Stars: if I could, I would give this game 1 Millon stars!

Thanks for reading, Munchim.

I have enjoyed Flow Free games for a long time and I also paid to have ads removed long ago. The game is now overflowing with ads. I once again said I wanted to remove the ads but received a message saying I had already purchased this. The ads continued. Out of respect for the developers I wrote to them directly rather than make a post here. No response. I again tried to have ads removed through Apple and received a message that it was done. But, the ads continue. $4.99. Think about that if you are someone who likes to remove ads when they are very excessive and long.
UPDATE:
I heard back from the developer and was provided with clear instructions about how to fix my ad issue. I first downloaded the game in 2011? This is the first time I have had a glitch. It is a very enjoyable game and I also own a couple of their other games. (I was able to fix my issue in all games.)
So I am happy to give this game the stars it deserves.

Flow Free is a little easy for the first several levels, or at least I found it so. Around level seven, it gets very interesting and challenging. Even if you find the first several levels a little too easy, keep going! By the time you get to 7x7 squares, you can see it starts to pick up the pace in trying to wrap your brain around this. By the time you get up to 10x10 squares, you see why even very intelligent people give up here.

These puzzles with higher numbers of squares require a high degree of spacial conceptual thinking. I love the challenge, but find it can be a little frustrating. When I get to a puzzle that really is taxing my brain, I go back to work a few puzzles at a lower level or even the level on a lower number of squares. Trust me, if you’re on Level 130 in 12x12 squares and you go back to a puzzle in 11x11 squares, you will not look at it say “I remember this.” After working several of the ‘less taxing’ puzzles, I can go back to the level that was frustrating me and see it in a new light and solve it and move on.

Flow is a great way to unwind, but at the same time it really makes you think. I play flow to fill those 5-10 minute gaps that I have in between activities, but I can also just play flow and watch Netflix for hours at a time! I have had this game for a few years and have recently completed all of the free packs. There are additional flow games (hexes, warps, etc) all of which are free and just as much fun as the original, so the game has plenty of content to play through. I like the option to get hints (even if you do have to sit through an ad) along with the fact that there are additional levels that you can buy. My only complaint is that there are ads between levels, but you can pay a small amount to get rid of them. Overall a great game and I would highly recommend it.

The “Flow” games (Flow Free, Bridges, Hexagons etc.) are my favorite puzzle games on FlowFree Store by far. They’re incredibly fun to play, and once in the swing of things, you can start burning through levels. That is one of the reasons I highly recommend purchasing the “All Puzzles Pack” that disables adds as well, that way you’ve not only uninterrupted play, but so many levels you’ll have a hard time attempting to beat them all, even after scores of hours!

A fantastic game through and through. Clean, elegant, simple design with a straight forward premise that is great for a quick 5 minute break, or lying back in chair or a bed for an hour!

Easily 5/5 Stars from me, and recommend to anyone whether you find yourself a puzzle game lover or not, I’d say at least give it a shot; you might be surprised!
