I have been on Level 217 for at least a couple weeks. The game is so engaging but the developers need to offer a chance to earn some complementary daily boosters. It is going to be a loser for me if the only way to love forward after a day or two requires that I pay for assists. Keys out of reach, impossible to set up a plan with limited moves. Some access points require four or more moves to open. Nope. “You can’t get there from here” and it will be easier to move on to a new game. Original Edit: This game is less winnable the higher your level. For example, there maybe 15 or 20 or 30 moves to meet 2 or 3 challenges on a give level. If it takes a few to position, and on the next you pretty much have to reposition or everything crumbles, you run out of moves really quickly. It results in a “you can’t get there from here” feeling. Need more feee booster options!! I still play but far less often. After being stuck on the same level for days, I realize I have to walk away from it for awhile. I never pay for boosters on any game I play, but most offer incentives to earn them pretty quickly. This one does not (unless I am missing something), and it gets very difficult to move to the next level without using multiple boosters several times, burning right through the few they offer and still not moving on. I like the concept of the game a lot (the plot line is okay, graphics interesting) but I think the game is too hard to play everyday. I am wasting too much time.

I have really enjoyed this game. It is one that I have stuck with longer than other games. When I first started playing the game, I didn’t have to pay for the 5 pieces of gold. I had a choice to buy 20 pieces or tap for 5 pieces. I am more apt to purchase things from an app if the developers are willing to give in return. So when they stopped letting me tap for gold, I almost quit the game. Lastly is the trophies. I work hard to get my trophy to #5, but then if I leave the game when I need to sleep or work then all my hard work is taken away. I have to start at ground zero. I wish you would allow us to keep the trophies we have worked hard for and not penalize us for leaving the game for awhile. And please bring back the piggy bank tapping.

I love this game as in REALLY love it. Of all the King games (most of which I also love), this one has the highest production quality and most unique gameplay which makes it so very addicting. So why the three stars? Because as so many others have mentioned, this is the one King game that is such an obvious money grab with regular levels becoming almost impossible to beat without throwing money down (“hard” levels are pretty easy though). So unless you like playing the same level night after night waiting for fate to deal you an easy board (which never happens) the only achievement you unlock is a new level of frustration. So, no thanks. I don’t have the time, the money and certainly not the patience for games like this no matter how charming they are. The AppStore has a plethora of worthy alternatives which leave me with a smile for me to keep playing a game which just leaves me with a scowl.

Fun for a while but then like with other King games I've played, as you progress the hardest regular boards are a lot harder than the "Hard". Level 72 is "Super Hard" and completed it first time with no helpers. Level 73 is a regular level and much, much harder to complete. I am on the fifth attempt and still not even close. I think the mistake some people make in reviewing these apps is thinking about them as games. They aren't really, not primarily. A game is about fun and challenges and making sure you have the best experience possible. These are not that. They are a vehicle for King to make as much money as possible. The primary aim is to get money out of you, as much as possible, and the fun part is just to make sure you stay there and spend your bucks. It sounds cynical but the whole approach is cynical. Your fun and enjoyment is really only an experience for manipulation instead of just a game for your entertainment.
