[R2] Brain Test 4/5 · US It was alright: I really do think this is a super fun game to play. It’s cool but tbh I have literally had to search up more than 3/4 of the answers because it was so hard and there’s so many ads! Also the ads for light bulbs like NEVER work! What’s up with that?

[R14] Brain Test 1/5 · US Should be called ad test: Hard to get any sort of rhythm going when every single level ends with an ad. Any chance at enjoying the game is immediately squashed when you force ads interrupting the game play. Instant uninstall after 6 levels smh. When will devs learn
