  1. [R29] Marble Master 5/5 · US Marble Master: Marble master is a pretty cool Game it’s very relaxing and it’s a peaceful and mellow game that you can get very addicted to very fast. I will give this game of recommend a five out of five and I think y’all should play it as well.
  2. [R35] Marble Master 5/5 · US Long Lasting Fun: Talk about bang for your buck - I’m up to almost 1100 levels of this game, and I’m still challenged and still enjoying it. There’s a seemingly endless supply of new configurations and tasks set out. Really feel like this game got it right. Wondering if I will eventually complete it. How many levels are there??
  3. [R23] Marble Master 5/5 · US Favorite: Love this game by far my favorite one on my phone I’ve gotten so far I’ve downloaded it again on my 2nd phone to start over ..it was getting “fast” on me 🙄😂🤞🏾 but honestly love the game & how it’ barley ends !!
  4. [R20] Marble Master 5/5 · US Buen juego: Es un buen juego de dificultad media, lo cual me gusta mucho porque lo uso para distraerme y no me estresa con dificultad alta se dificulta pasar las etapas en algunos juegos es casi imposible, eso no sucede con este! lo recomiendo.
  5. [R47] Marble Master 5/5 · US Simple and fun: Love the simplicity of the game. No hard objective, just fun gameplay.
  6. [R4] Marble Master 1/5 · US If you like to watch ads: Seriously I like the game but oh my, the ads. And I’m not talking just occasional, after EVERY game and some ads are 3-5 minutes. Other games I play may be a 30 second ad…not this one. I end up losing points because as soon as I finish a game, I close out just so I won’t have to watch another ad. Great game but the ads are killing it for me.
  7. [R6] Marble Master 3/5 · US Will update later if fixed: Literally cannot play the game because of the ads that WILL NOT CLOSE. I understand the need for ads, but recently I am getting the ads that let you play the game for a bit and then open the App Store. The problem is they won’t close after. There’s no way to exit aside from closing the game entirely. Which is a problem
  8. [R10] Marble Master 1/5 · US Grrr: Installed this app three days ago. The first two days were fun. Today, there is an ad break between each level, and the level takes far less than a minute to play. If this isn’t more ad time than play time, it’s too close for me. Bye.
  9. [R22] Marble Master 1/5 · US Don’t waste your time: The game conveniently freezes on you when you’re making progress.
  10. [R100] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 1/5 · US Disappointed.: If you get to a certain level Or points the game will freeze and you either have to start over or quit.
  11. [R105] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 3/5 · US Fun game but buggy: Fun game but when it freezes unexpectedly which it does fairly often, you will lose your current rewards, and your current place during competitions, and lose your super beam if you have one. I’d give it 5 stars if it wasn’t for that. But this has been a persistent problem for years that hasn’t been fixed. The developers need to reinstate the player when this happens but they
  12. [R13] Marble Master 1/5 · US Worst Game Ever: Do not download this game. It’s the worst game ever. There’s a commercial after everything and they forced it on you. There’s more commercials than game.
  13. [R46] Marble Master 1/5 · US All ads: I deleted this. The ad time is 2-3 x the game play time. Each ad is long, unskipable, and requires multiple clicks to dismiss. Frequently, there are multiple ads in a row. Waste of time.
  14. [R19] Marble Master 1/5 · US Boring: The levels are too easy and way too short. Waste of time. I deleted it after 20 minutes of play. Also the developer likes to harass you if you leave a 1 star review. But here is the real reason I hated the game. They are trying too hard to make this game fun with all the bells and whistles and the pop ups are annoying trying to get you to buy add ons. First off the game is too easy and sho
  15. [R61] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 1/5 · US Reposting because review was deleted: Not sure what happened to my original review? I got a response, came here and found no review so I am reposting. Their Customer Service treated me very rudely simply for inquiring about some clarity for their newest event. They talked down to me and came off extremely condescending. Not to mention that this is replacing spinning the wheel for multiple prizes n
  16. [R116] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 5/5 · US Addicting: Great customer service: I had an issue with the game and reached out at first there was an issue and then they looked further into the problem and found there was no violation and issued my coin’s all in less then 24hrs. Highly recommend…
  17. [R1] Marble Master 2/5 · US ZumA: zuma is back with 30x more ads. Remember back in the day you would buy a PC DISK with 0 ads RIP music was better then too
  18. [R28] Marble Master 1/5 · US This is all ads and NO game!: The only way to stop the ads is to pay!! That was the solution offered, how lousy! What a frustrating SCAM this is!!!!
  19. [R64] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 1/5 · US Deleted: Fun game until the ads start. The adds are longer than the game sessions. Joke!
  20. [R3] Marble Master 3/5 · US Limited time add free: I paid eventually for a deal that included add free but I only enjoyed it for what seemed like a month now the adds are back so that’s annoying it’s a monthly cost for add free, other games it’s a one time fee I dont know why this one is different but now I know
  21. [R37] Marble Master 2/5 · US Don’t see option to buy ad-free: Good game but would prefer to pay to remove ads.
  22. [R69] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 3/5 · US Love it, but why the change?: I have enjoyed this game for a long time, but the removal of the spinning wheel and the chance to earn ways to help with the game, is confusing. How can we now do that? Please return the spinning wheel!
  23. [R75] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 3/5 · US Don't like the new gift box update: I have played this game for some time and have always enjoyed it but with the latest update where they got rid of the spinning wheel and the chance to watch 5 ads to receive different rewards, my enjoyment has plummeted with only one gift box to open per day. I enjoyed getting those extra rewards to help with tough levels and looked forward to getting them each
  24. [R79] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 1/5 · US Do not update: I wished I had never updated this game. Every time I update this game on any of my devices, I always lose coins or the ability to gain coins. when this game first come out for every 10 games that you won, they gave you coins. The extra powers that they gave in the last update brings absolutely nothing to your game Be sure to spin the wheel for 10 coins
  25. [R81] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 3/5 · US Too many changes: Bring back the spinning wheel
  26. [R25] Marble Master 1/5 · US Me: Why can't the volume be turned off when app ad plays from the app store ??
  27. [R78] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 3/5 · US Too many ads!: You get to a point where it is impossible to finish a level without watching multiple ads. Even more annoying are the ads that freeze or bait and switch with the close “x” taking you to a web site.
  28. [R108] Bubble Pop! Puzzle Game Legend 3/5 · US Ads stick: The ads stick so you don’t get the reward you’ve watched the ad for.
