- [R1] Color Block Color Block: When I can play the game, it’s great but then up pop the same ads as Block Tok and I can’t make them go away - especially the ads for upgrading the game. Very frustrating. I shut off my computer to get rid of them or I leave the game and find a game more user friendly.
- [R3] Color Block Really bad: Too many adds knock off of block blast and it isn’t fun Do not download if you are board and developers fix this please and quickly or I will delete the app thank you but otherwise a great game
- [R5] Color Block I voted this 5 stars so you'd see it: All of these reviews are quite frankly speaking lies saying it's a Good game . It lowkey has way too many ads it's lowkey that kids who are saying block blast is 18+ bc block blast is 13+ and way better bc it acc updates this fake copy is unoriginal and doesn't update. And the game is rlly slow don't even get me started and they say they update to fix bugs but
- [R10] Color Block I paid for no ads, now they are back: I love this game, I find it very relaxing. The reason I went with this version is because it seems to be the only one that offers an option to pay for no ads. However, with the latest update, suddenly I have ads again and I’m not able to restore my purchase. Trying to figure out how to contact the developer.
