Colormania Reviews

The only reason Colormania has 5 stars is because it rewards you to do it in the game. The game itself is a good concept, but with many flaws. Whenever you run out of lives, you have to wait up to 25 minutes to get more lives! If you want to reduce that time limit you can pay the ridiculous price of 3.99...and that doesn't even eliminate your wait, it just reduces it to five minutes, which is still way too much time to wait!! Whenever you get lives, you get 1-4 based on chance. Then once they are gone you wait again, and it's easy to lose a life. If you want to double your lives, you can pay that same ridiculous pice of 3.99, and yet it another scam....it only doubles your lives so most of the time you will get less than four lives anyway. Colormania is just plain greedy and it ruins my gaming experience.

Hi, Hi
I had to contact apple support because I did not get my 2 purchases of extra life for 1.99 each. Apple did a refund, But I would like the lives instead

Where are new levels? last time updated was June 2015?

I don't really like the game. A lot of symbols are unheard of, but I guess they're probably easier for other people. I think the actual game was put together in an unappealing manner. If you don't know an icon, you have to guess and guess. If there was a way to get more brushes and hammers, that would be better. I just don't like games that make you wait. They're not fun, and you can't play them hardly at all when you're bored. I feel like having a specific order for the icons worsens this effect. I feel like you could add different categories for the icons, like TV, games, cars, and food or something. And for a couple of levels, the colors were a bit off. They were still generally right, but the shade or hue was just a little off kilter. That would be acceptable, except for levels where there are different shades of that color, and the wrong one is right.

While the general idea is great and fun, the set up process isn't great. You can easily brush through levels without gaining: lives, boosts, or coins. The first time I ran out if lives it have me a certain time amount before I can play again. I thought my lives would be fully restored but when i came back, there was a wheel to spin, for what I thought were extra lives. Turns out when you spin the wheel, whatever you land on, is the amount of lives you receive. I thought that that feature was not thought out and they could've done more. But don't worry, if you have coins you can purchase extra boosts and lives. Here's the catch, you don't earn coins in this game, you have to purchase extra lives and boosts for actual money. While this is a good sales gimmick, it's not worth the amount of purchase (for $.99 you can get one life or one boost). I feel as though this application can be a great app but the developers just haven't thought it through.

I like the game, but one of the challenges need to be fixed, the match challenge will say you got it correct then you would lose a life, also it sometimes will repeat a icon immediately after getting it correct and say you got it right then subtract a life. This is a very concerning and annoy issue that you would please consider in fixing. Thank you.

That game is very fun about the color that I choose the right color and it matches the character.

The game is ok, some of the "icons" can be almost any color, but it's mildly entertaining. It looks too easy, but i am surprised by the little details I didn't know, like the color of spongebob's eyes. Little things you normally wouldn't even think to notice can have you stumped. What is awful is the ads! It pops up about a second after a round starts so when you go to select a color you hit the full page ad instead, which brings you to safari then Colormania Store. Every time. I have had to close both and relaunch Colormania 5 times in less than 5 minutes. Very annoying and a little ridiculous. Yes, you can pay to get rid of ads, but to make them so annoying as to almost force you to pay to even try to enjoy the game just makes me want Colormania even less. Ads are ok, just not obnoxious ones! They probably get paid per click so they trick you into hitting it again and again. Shoddy business practice on both ends, abusing customers to abuse clicks.

This game could be SO much more enjoyable if not for the incessant, extremely tedious "Time Outs" for wrong guesses when you've run out of lives. I feel like a toddler being put on the "time out chair" because I used the wrong color crayon on my picture.
At the very least offer a greater number of lives to spin for to make up for the interminable interruptions to game play!
Tip: When in doubt, choose Red, followed by Blue, then Yellow. (Probably 3/4 of the pictures contain Red.) After a while, you'll most likely search online for cheats anyway, as these brands are often not all that familiar (at least to me) or you'll be thrown off by the color applying to the background and not the icon itself.
All in all, a clever idea for a game but execution is lacking. Too bad.

Okay, I really like the process and idea of this game. But that one mechanic that causes you to wait 30 minutes to an hour is RIDICULOUS! I hate when I am forced to wait 25 minutes only to spin that wheel and only get 1life and only play for 10 seconds at time.I would rate this higher if you dispose of or change the game's one bad mechanic it would be awesome! You could make it gauntlet with limited lives, multiplayer game show, make it a randomly generated endless thing just get ride of the waiting thing! Also some of the images are very vague in black and white And in this art style. For example, one icon was Santa peeking over a rooftop, but in grey scale, it looks like a Orca or some weird oceanic mascot! Just fix the wait thing and detail the pictures you have my 5 stars.

I agree with the previous review regarding the sudden popup ads that you can't avoid. You're going to answer a color you know as soon as you see it and then all of a sudden it lag pops up the ad after you already tried to click a color and misunderstands that click as for the ad. Thankfully it takes a handful of seconds for my iPod to load the redirect to Colormania Store so as long as I wait and click the x in safari I can stop that, but it's still horribly aggravating though. I wouldn't mind if I could expect the ad every 5th question or something; it might help, at least to avoid the laggy 'misclicks' from ad loading. Otherwise I'd have no issue with wholeheartedly giving Colormania 5 stars for everything it and its creators do and have done.

Cool take on the guessing games that have been around recently. But the waiting time is too annoying and long and a lot of the colors don't look like what they're supposed to be like. In many levels, I chose one color instead of another and lost, even though the one I chose was the correct one. The squares don't look the same once the colors show up on the picture. Like the color changes after you guess it. It's kinda slight, but enough to throw me off every once in a while which I don't think should be a characteristic of this game, if it is done on purpose.

It is a good challenging app. It is really good for wasting time.

I use to play this all the time

There are way to many ads

Awesome game

Ok for the ads, they aren't that much and it is actually easier to deal with them popping up than to have a banner because what if the banner were to cover up the picture! Plus the banner could be really distracting because of the colors and you wouldn't be able to concentrate or try to rmbr what colors are in the picture! And if u suddenly are not able to click on anything and u don't see an ad, then that's because there's an ad, but there's probably a glitch or something. You can fix it it two seconds, though. Look at the top right hand corner and you'll see an X. Click on it and you'll be able to continue the game. Idk abut the challenges bc I don't play them but yea. And the time gap between ten seconds or something and half an hour isn't that big if a deal. Just do something that you know will be able to get your mind off of the game and will make time just fly by! What I do is play or watch pokemon!

Colormania is amazing! It’s got so many icons to color! I recommend downloading this game BTW.
