Very dishonest and aggressive ad and IAP tactics
Drawgood
I do not understand how this game passed Apple App Store’s quality control and standards. It is not wrong for a developer to want to make money from their product. But it is very wrong to do it dishonestly and to resort to trickery. What NLABSOFT does is it misleads or plain tricks you into clicking on the screen item which then causes either an ad to play or to show an IAP offer. I’ll give a couple examples. You play the game then see a hot air balloon float across the screen. It offers “help” buy it interrupts the whole game. Another example is the restart button/feature. You can choose to restart the game and level. Ok. You press on it. It asks if you really want to do this. You press yes. You see an ad play. BUT THEN you get another panel after the ad which asks: “do you want to start the level with building Lvl#x?” The options you get not “yes” and “no”. You see “cancel” and “yes”. That is absolutely different. “Cancel” implies that your previous action to restart could be reversed AFTER you had already watched the advertisement play. IF you press “YES” they do not warn you that you will be forced to watch another advertisement. You can make these offers but it is very wrong and dishonest to not fully inform what the offer implies if you respond to it by interacting with the screen. As far as visual design the game is ok. One thing I strongly dislike is very cheesy, generic, stock soundtrack which has nothing to do with what you see on the screen and the sound effect when moving the tiles. It’s like free sounds they downloaded online.
Annoying freemium

The game is excellent. All I want is to pay for unlimited undo and add removal. But facing for $4 add removal and no unlimited undo, plus $1 limited packages... I’m just bearing through the ads and hating myself. Feels like my iphone is running android.
Addicting as F$$$!!!
