Unscrew It: Nuts & Bolts Jam Reviews

Way too many ads. Every single level and thing you do an advertisement will come up with a minimum of 7-10 seconds you have to wait before you exit.

The colors are hard to tell apart, keep getting the wrong colors because they look the same

Fun.. but it has too many ads. It takes less time to play a round than watch ads. I will be deleting.

Reward ad too long -No ad needs to be 1min long while timers are ticking away, unfair disadvantage. If you want us to watch ads STOP the timers- what’s the point of using extra life or tools on aTimer if it is wasted by seconds (even minutes) of ad watching??

The extra x2-x5 doesn’t actually stop where you landed it as it randomly continues to slide back and forth until the LONG ad is over landing wherever it wants to, unlike other games you get to line up your extra “x” amount the best of your ability.

With all this said I am Sorry to say I will not keep this game.
Although this game was really fun at first and would have been a game I enjoyed to keep, however these “glitches of unfairness” leads me to consider that my time is just a valuable as the money the developers make get from airing ads and forcing their players to participate just to get to the next puzzle, besides I don’t support unfair gaming platforms.

Good luck, maybe if things improve I will return.

I play a lot of games with ads that none of them are over 25-30 seconds. I really enjoy this game but I feel like i spend more time watching ads than playing the game.

I have downloaded this game twice and gotten into a certain level and then the next level just won’t come up. The screen is blank so I’m about to delete it again.

Advertisement to long and to often so you spend to much time waiting to play the game

After every level is an annoying ad!

Just so many adds

This is a fun game. However, one ad freezes the game. Solitaire Cash ad plays then the screen goes black with a white bar at the bottom. No matter how long I wait, it does not give me an exit.
I enjoyed not having ads after every game. However, that changed drastically! LONG ads after every game. Main ad is 30 secs, then to get to the x, then another x to exit. I’m on level 40. Lots of the higher levels do not expose the screw which requires a tool; which requires more ads to access.

The game is fine, a bit expensive to remove ads, but the color difference between the pink and red is ridiculously subtle.

It is ok

The 3 shades of purple are way too similar. I keep losing because I hit the wrong shade.

I understand there need to be ads but one after every round is ridiculous. I spend more time watching ads than playing. I’ll be uninstalling now.

You can’t play for the ads that repeat and do not let you return to the game. Don’t bother

I don’t understand why you people ask for a review BEFORE we play the game. THINK! Ask after we’ve played awhile .

This game is fun but an ad after EVERY SINGLE THING

Game is not like the ads and the prevent you from playing the game enjoyably.

Need better coloring

The first time I played the game (I was enjoying it) an ad came up and I couldn’t get out of it.I had to leave the game to get out of the ad.Deleted the game.

At first this was a fun game. After getting several levels into it the ads came quicker and quicker. They appeared after each level, win or lose as well as to get a reward. Then they started to get longer and obviously the higher the level the harder that are to complete so you must watch even more ads to try to pass a level. Now the ads are over a minute long for each one. It will start with 1 minute, then it will do another count down of 15 seconds, then back and forth between X and the word DONE. Well, I’m done. Deleting this game. If the ads were reasonable I would have given it 5 stars.

This is one I use if I need to take the bus for long rides. TONS OF ADS. TONS. The game play is about 40-90seconds per round. Then on to 2-4min ad breaks.

I am not happy that I have to to pay money to beak the piggy bank.

My suggestion - when a round is completed successfully without wanting to collect more than the base 20 coins, don’t make us watch an ad anyway. Or maybe at least only after every 5 puzzles.
Plenty will still watch the ads to get x2 - x5 the regular collection.
It just makes it incredibly monotonous. So, I don’t play it often.

Challenging, fun and too many ads

Another horrible game with ads that run about a minute and a half. Who’s wants to play a game when you wait that long between levels? I will not download this game again. Also it takes 400 points to continue the game. Totally ridiculous game.

I like the game but it take to long for the arrow to stop and too many commericals.

I fully understand ads but when you have to watch a double length ad after every level it's no fun. DO BETTER.

Takes any joy out of it.. fixing to delete it

This was cool until you took away the ability to watch an ad for a booster. Some levels are impossible without it. Deleting.

Need more time without ads. Hard to enjoy play

like I understand they need to make money but 4 60 second ads back to back after spending 30 seconds on one round! Ridiculous! Plus they make the color of the bults so similar so you cant tell the difference and so you fill up the bar and have to watch more ads! but your right i can just start over but that doesn’t save you from EVEN MORE ADS! It makes the game miserable and it just advertises more of the same games! We need the old games back! The ones that real humans actually made and cared about if other people enjoyed and only nicely suggested you bought something and they never shoved it in your face! Urgh sorry just tired of crappy games!

Lots of ads including an ad that plays after every other game it seems, and some levels that are so hard that you burn through five lives quickly trying to get it unless you use some of the power ups which require watching, wait for it, more ads.

Some of the colours are very hard to distinguish between each other, and some of the screws are completely hidden so you can’t find them until you hunt and peck by removing other screws until you run out of space to try and find the necessary one.

The game is good enough. Not too many ads. But the colors can be hard to distinguish, especially the dark pink and red or the two purples. That causes a lot of errors when I’m trying to figure out which one to choose. This makes it frustrating and I finally give up and move on to another game.

Why the extra cash [ with ads] do not work. The game is great, but it costs a lot for the extra stuff, so I would rather try to gain the game coins via the 2x,3x, 4x, 5x… claim wheel after each session to get the extra coins. But it doesn’t work! Your game is not the only one that does this. Doesnt seem right.

So I will play until I run out of coins and then delete the game.

I really like this game but it’s frustrating to have it end the game as soon as you use up the last hole even if it freed the colored-screw you needed. And on top of that there’s an ad after every game and you can’t get your reward until after it has finished. I’m deleting this game because I’ve gotten so aggravated with it.

I like the game a lot but some of the colors are just a couple of shades different than others. That really makes things difficult especially if you have color spectrum problems ☹️

I can’t move past level 86. A message pops up at the bottom saying “collect connected chains to free the chained screws.” It appears over a few of the screws in the puzzle and as a result you can’t click on them therefore you can’t complete the puzzle. I’m mad and disappointed because I spent money on UnscrewIt just for this glitch to not allow me to play anymore.

This game would be fun but the colors look too close to one another so unless you are really paying attention you can screw the whole thing up. There are better screw games where you can tell the difference between the colors.

I keep running out of lives,faster than should happen. But now I’m out of lives, and I put my iPad down for more than a day, picked it up tonight and I still have almost 30 minutes to wait for a life. Appears to be broken. I tried closing completely out of UnscrewIt and reopen, and still no lives.

Probably should fix some bugs.

Ads are overly long and the extra time given from them often starts before the ad ends or your able to even move any screws. Further levels become very difficult due to lack of color saturation between the different screws and are very often highly repetitive and basic!

There needs to be an option to start at higher level because you’re going to lose me to boredom! I’ve deleted a few games like this because they are boring at the beginning

You have to keep UnscrewIt open to get another life after you run out. If you go out of UnscrewIt and come back minutes later, the timer doesn’t continue to run down during that time. It only starts again when you go back in UnscrewIt . How dumb is that? Otherwise, I enjoyed playing it while it lasted, but I’m deleting UnscrewIt .

I am a Mimi, Grandma and Wife my life is wonderful! But these games just give me an out sometime to just clear my thoughts and just let me have some Me Time!!!

I don’t believe I can accurately convey how overrun this game is with ads. Finish a level? Ad. Use a power up? Ad. Accidentally swipe the wrong way? Ad. To be clear these are forced ads, not ones you watch for some bonus or benefit. It’s truly astounding. Over a 10 minute playtime I counted over 20 ads. That’s more than 2 per minute. Do not recommend.

I was enjoying it until it says to pay 550 points to continue and you lose a life, just because you used up all the spare holes in spite of having more moves that could win the game. I can understand that if you don’t have anymore moves but that’s not the case. They need to fix that and I might give it more stars.

There is something that doesn’t make sense
Why I lose when the top circles are full with screws?
I would understand that if there was no more moves. But there are moves and I still can play.
You really need to fix that 🙃

I downloaded this game because I wanted to find out which was the best wood screw game. This one started out very fun, unfortunately it does have one big flaw in the game. It will give you about five empty spots underneath the different colored toolboxes which you are supposed to fill with the same colored screws. Once you fill up the empty spots the game claims you have run out of spots and stops the play. It doesn’t matter that the screw you just placed in the last empty spot reveals the two colors of screws that you need to fill up the next tool boxes. You would think logically since you just revealed the two screws you needed it would allow the game to continue, but no. Once you fill up the free spots if you can clear the rest of the board by placing them into the next box the gameplay should continue, but it doesn’t. In my opinion this is a major flaw of logic that the game ignores and why I am deleting it.

Although this is a very fun game to play, there is a problem that should be addressed. Not all people have the ability to detect all variations of color shade.
A couple of the three shades of purple are so close it is hard for me to tell the difference. Between the very light purple and the dark purple I have no problem but between the medium and the dark it is very difficult.
I understand not all have this problem and you can’t change everything for everyone and I’m okay with that. I just wanted to maybe alert you to something you may not have been aware.
Love the game!

Most of the levels are straightforward, but the “hard” levels are challenging. What I appreciate most is that I can go through several levels without a lot of fanfare after each level and there are few ads

This game would be perfect if it wasn’t for these two dumb things. First, the game ends when the fifth hole is filled. Why??? This would make sense if the screws didn’t automatically enter its respective container. On top of that, If a screw is roped to another screw, then the fifth hole is filled automatically and the game doesn’t end. Why? Then, if the fifth hole is filled but there’s an immediate hole available in the screws respective container the game still ends with a message that says “Out of space,” even though It’s not “out of space.” Why such a dumb rule? Second, why make the colors so close in shade? What’s the purpose?

This game is just watching ads and getting to play a bit between ads. It literally punishes you for playing by implementing a stupid lives system so you have to watch extra ads to play if you lose too many times in a short while. Not to mention it’s super easy to lose when they have 3 different purple screws that are maybe a single shade apart and you have to guess which ones the game is asking you for. Definitely do NOT recommend even a little bit, the game itself is super fun and would be great but it’s so impossible to actually get to play because of the incessant ads the fact it’s fun isn’t a redeeming quality in the slightest.

I enjoy the game, but I wish the red and fuchsia colors were so close together… It may be making the other one yellow or white?

I got this game twice now after watching an ad when I was playing another game. It looked pretty good, but when I played it, it was totally different, glass or plastic, not the wooden one like in the ads! Does it make a difference? I think so! Wasting our time as if we have a lot of time to spare watching all the ads dumped on us constantly! Give us what’s in the ads, or don’t waste our time! Sorry had to vent.

No way to access Customer Support from UnscrewIt :(( Level 555 where new feature is introduced has text on it that will not go away. Cannot remove pins that are covered by text. No way to clear text but allows you to play with uncovered pins and use boosters. Please fix and replace used boosters. Also, once you enter the 6 day “ competition “ you cannot exit and play regularly. FAKE DEVELOPER WEBSITE, NO WAY TO CONTACT DEVELOPER. STAY AWAY - ads after every level and way too long (up to 1 minute).

This game is good to waste time. Don’t bother trying to get the coins on the slider because it will just give what it wants not what you stop on. When you try to use a tool it will show you selected it but then it puts a screw in the storage spot causing no you to lose space. Too many glitches and you don’t get the amount of coins you should so don’t count on them. Like I said good to waste time because you’ll watch ads more than play.

My only complaint is there are a couple colors that are just a shade different. A person with vision issues can not tell the difference. And as I read pass reviews. I am not the first to complain about it. So when are you going to do something about it?

The first twenty or so levels are super easy and almost no ads - three requests to leave a review in that time. Then around level 20, it’s an ad after every level
The game does not match the teaser ads of ‘wood’ looking pieces to remove screws from, instead it’s a clearish plastic looking pieces
I would rate this game as a deceptive and a waste of time
Deleting it as soon as I post this review

It’s a fun game, and provides new challenges. However, the last space provided for extra screws isnt an actual space. Once you put a screw there it says you’re out of spaces and makes you start over and lose the winning streak. Also, when you win the point slider (3, 2, 1.5) doesn’t work as expected.

So far, it’s not as advertised, where are the huge pictured pieces? Where are the saws at the bottom destroying the pieces as they drop? This is the ad that I saw that made me want to download this game. Not what I’m seeing so far. I will keep playing for a bit to see if the game changes to what ads depict but if not I may be deleting yet another game due to false advertising. Becasue so far, I’m already bored with it. The levels are too easy

I enjoy playing this game, but the Solitaire Cash ad has a glitch, it continuously loops and does not allow advancement past the ad. I have to leave UnscrewIt and come back in and restart the level I was on. Tried reporting this as a problem, but there is an issue I can’t get past there either. Please fix this!

While the game play is fun, and the boards are challenging, after an hour or so of playing, you get to boards that can’t be completed without power ups. When you’re out of them, you are forced to pay for more or you can’t finish the board. While I highly enjoyed the game, I won’t keep paying to play a game where the boards are rigged against you!! I’m deleting it and trying another.
TL:DR - Don’t get it! You have to pay to play!!

Looks super easy to play until you move up the first 5 lvls. Then the challenge begins. You really have to pay attention to the colors, there very close in color. Too many of the wrong colors and you fill the board up and you’re out start all over.. great game

Some levels require thinking others just fly by. I just started maybe levels get harder, fun to find out

So I really HATE it when I have no choice but to play a game with a clock on it. This is a great and fun game, but I’ve actually quit using games that make you play with a timer—I want to relax, watch some TV, and just do a puzzle without feeling rushed. It would be great if fun games like this offered a “no timers” option.

Like all of these games they are built to make you spend money. I’m fine spending money to remove ads, what I’m not fine with is spending 10 dollars to get unlimited play for 15 minutes.. No game should require you to spend money to progress OR make you wait days to play a few levels when it gets hard.. but that’s the trick. They get you into the game, then start asking for money. I’m so tired of all these mobile games just being cash grabs with no actual love for games.

Don’t recommend unless you want to be frustrated and spend all your money

Downloaded the game for the puzzles, but had to delete because of how unplayable it is. The game has three different shades of purple screws and two of the shades are hard to distinguish. My major problem is the number of ads. Most have loud music and appear after every level, even if you choose to NOT watch a video to up the reward. Clearly trying to force users to buy the no ads in-app purchase in order to make the game playable.

They need to do something about the long ads that are from two to three minutes long. Just because you don’t want to pay to remove them they make you watch long once. My feelings are that is what they want you to do pay to stop watching them so if you don’t pay to stop watching them you spend more times watching the ads then it does t beat a level

Loving the game but the colors look alike way too much especially on top of the colored backgrounds.😡 We older generation’s eyes 👀 aren’t sharp like the younger generations ones.🤣Now it would be nice if you made the same game for us old folks with bigger screws because us older folks use’s bifocals to see those little small screws.🤨🧐🤓🥸

❤️Good game if you like games that challenges your mind and patience.❤️

At first i really liked this game but i did have issues playing. The boards and screws are small. There are 3 different shades of purple. I have bad eyes so I sometimes had a hard time figuring out which shade i needed and lost games because of it. I had a hard time with red, pink, and orange too.

Next issue is coins. You get only 20 coins per round. If you watch an ad, you can maybe get 40 coins. If you lose a level it takes 550 coins to continue. Thats a lot of rounds to play!

I never thought i would complain about the lack of ads but here i am. The “assists” like a hammer and magnet are coins only. You cannot watch an ad to earn one. The only way to get more coins is to buy them.

So, unless you are willing to spend money on this game, you won’t get far.
