I've used this app for years and played thousands of games with friends and family members, but lately the game is literally unplayable. at least half the time I try to play my next turn, the game load screen just spins for 10 seconds and then nothing happens. Multiple attempts. closing the app, clearing the cache, reinstalling the app...same issues persist. in addition, the ads are brutal and they pop after every single turn, plus they are a minimum of 30 seconds.

I enjoy the game but have never been able to successfully connect with an opponent on Expert. Game sometimes stalls on ads or entering quick play but closing out and going back seems to do the trick and I've never lost my game progress as a result. I'd consider the paid version if it were less expensive. Subscription cost just doesn't align with the added benefits, especially since it isn't unlimited play.

really fun game, but there's a lot of ads! there's an option to buy a monthly membership to get rid of ads, but it's like $10/ month. I like supporting devs, but that's a lot for one game per month. there's also a limited number of game boards, not per day, just period, unless you buy more with in game currency that takes forever to build up. or you could watch more ads to get more boards lol. overall, good game play. hubby and I play everyday :)

Hello! Unfortunately, we have to keep ads in order to keep the game running for free. Apart from ad-free experience, our subscription also includes unlimited currency, for that reason it is loved by many of our players. Hope that makes sense, and it would mean a lot to us if you would be willing to improve your rating. Best regards, Kryss team!
