Fun (and addicting)

Great puzzle, keeps me on my toes; every time I tick, "I've got this," a piece drops in not where I expected, and I'm solving again. So fun to see how far I can get - hard to stop after playing just one game! Easy to learn. Don't mind watching a brief add to play a few more games.
One of my favorite games, but major mishap

First off: I love the gameplay itself. As anyone who's played the game knows, the concept is intuitive but lends itself to great difficulty. High drops, disarray in the wake of combining the largest tiles, and mixing 1s and 2s all keep you on your toes. It's always a challenge, and the game really does focus much more on strategy than mindless swiping, especially with features such as the slow swipe which allows previews, revealing the upcoming tile, and the "start with boost" feature that puts you right at a proper difficulty level and skips the beginning. Unlike 2048, you can always play more and always continue to improve, unless you're one of those rare people who have acheived the 6144 tile. But beyond the game, the developers have really gone the extra mile to make the game a wonderful experience. The aesthetics are great: both color schemes are well suited to the game, the music is terrific, and the tile descriptions and voiceovers are cute without interrupting gameplay. Additionally, compared to other games the advertisement experience is utterly glorious. The system of ad-per-play makes ads nonintrusive and allows you to watch ads whenever you want, so you can just tune out and press the button again while doing something else. Usually I just rack up a hundred or so plays at once at my convenience. The interface is simple and in step with the minimalistic nature of the game itself. A couple minor complaints and suggestions: - You cannot access statistics when not currently in a game, which is simply bizzare to me, as I usually want to access statistics anytime but in the middle of a game. I would much prefer it be accessible in the menu, as you can still access the menu midgame anyway. - Looks like there are a couple of display errors in night mode; sometimes the 192 tile and 384 tile have the day colored headphone or bandana. - Even though it might match the minimalism of the game, perhaps it would benefit newer players and the colorblind if there was an option to put numbers on the 1, 2, and 3 tiles in the upcoming tile slot. The main reason I have decreased my rating to 4 stars is because it seems that the update has stopped high cards from spawning for me. I was rather upset to find this out when I realized large spawns weren't happening, but from what I understand this is unintentional as the paid version had a similar problem with spawns (the paid version had an issue that stopped spawns of not only high cards but all 3s!) and is now fixed. I urgently await the same for the free version, and unfortunately will have to clear my scores because I feel some of my most recent scores have been unfairly gotten due to the decreased difficulty caused by only spawning 1s, 2s, and 3s. Nonetheless, if I had rated this game before the update I would have given it a wholehearted 5 stars.
Love this game!

I love the design, sounds, and gameplay. I'm so addicted to this. I play it every time I have a few moments to burn. Thank you for making a free version! I'm probably going to buy the ad free version at the rate I've been playing this.
Amazing and polished

This game is fun and has a great replay value. Much better than 2048 Downside is how much it drains your battery. Even when you set to conserve battery (changing from 60fps to 30fps).
You only get 12 games...

Then you have to watch an ad for every three additional games. Too many ads for my taste. Ok game, rip off of 2048.
