  3. [R17] Geometry Dash Lite 4/5 · US Great game for being free: As someone who used to play this game back when I was younger this is was a great refresher and although some things like making custom levels and seeing what other people’s levels are it’s truly been a staple for gaming!!

  13. [R3] Geometry Dash Lite 3/5 · US Ads: This is a good game but it is so ad infested it’s not even funny. You get to die one or two times before you get an ad.

  17. [R61] Tomb of the Mask 2/5 · US Greedy app devs: This game is a lot of fun but shoving 5 different pop ups in your face to give the devs money and having an ad after every stage is extremely annoying.

  18. [R63] Tomb of the Mask 3/5 · US Super Fun but to many Ads: I’d love to keep this game but the amount of ads and how long they are makes me wanna delete it I don’t have the time. And I’m not paying for ads to be taken off. So much potential tho

[R69] Tomb of the Mask 3/5 · US Way too many ads that rely on premium to actually play: The puzzles in this game are great and really fun, but it gets less fun when I have to watch forced ads every time I die or even just exist.
