Unblock Ball - Block Puzzle Hack 1.3.3 + Redeem Codes

I’m currently at Level 350 so that might be enough to tell you my opinion. I love the concept. I’ve always liked and have been great and slide puzzles. So why not 5 stars then? Two reasons: An ad after every level and it’s too easy. You can skip the ad right away so I’ve been ok playing it but a took a star off. Also it’s too easy for me. Now I’m 40 and I realize I may be a lot older than the target audience so I’m giving a pass on that. It’s a good app for younger kids. Teaches spacial recognition and puzzle solving. Word of advice play until at least level 70 because it is mind numbingly easy at the early levels but does get you to think for a couple seconds at least after 70 every so often.

One way to increase the challenge I found it trying to solve the puzzle without getting any stars, using as few blocks as possible for a three star solution or using as many as possible. There are indeed many levels with multiple 3 star solutions. Try to find them all.

To the developer there appears to be a minor bug. When you get a 3 star solution it says “Good” but when you get a 2 star solution it says “Excellent”. “Excellent” is better than “Good” so they should be reversed since 3 stars would be the goal.

Anyone know how many levels there are?

I played 12 levels and felt compelled to write a review, which I rarely due so take this for what it's worth. This game is a Great design and concept but! It feels like it went a different direction, creatively, once it was completed. The author clearly decided that Aggressive ads after every single level was the best way to make money back on their investment, which is pure greed. Playability is greatly diminished and negated due to the ads. I'm a developer as well and the Ads can be easily adjusted for every other level, every 3 levels, or even just a 20,30,40% of the time. The second issue is how easy the levels are, it would be nice to have a difficulty option in the beginning where you can choose Easy, Medium, Hard for example. Also, let the user hit the marble instead of auto-triggering it. Again, great idea but very poor follow-through and execution. Here's an idea Mr/Mrs Author, pretend your a player or have 5 friends / family members and 5 strangers play this game and ask for feedback... See where you end up and re read my post. If you want to make money, always decide on playability versus profitability.... a user playing this game for months will make you more
money over time with fewer ads than frustrated users like me whom uninstall after the first day, 5-10 levels.

This game is no different than other games of this type. The first 10 levels are an insult to your intelligence. You have to move one or two tiles to solve the puzzle. I guess the developers have figured that we have never played a game like this before and need all the help we can get. Secondly, I believe you are able to play the first two or three levels without an ad. After that, after EVERY FREAKING LEVEL you get an ad. Granted, most are five seconds or less, but they are AFTER EVERY LEVEL!! This many ads are totally unnecessary. As you progress, the levels are increasingly more difficult, but the amount of ads is terrible. I have played about 20 levels, so once I have played more I will give an update to this review. That is IF I play for that many more levels. Unless the ads decrease (which they won’t) I will stay at three stars. If you like this type of game, and like ads, then consider playing it. Again, it is like every other game of this type, not really anything new that I can see, but only I have played about 20 levels.

First of all, I would like to say that all puzzle games are very interesting and a great sponge for absorbing your spare time, and this game is no different. You will find yourself saying, “one more level,” and “just a little more,” yet you continue playing for hours on end. I have to say though that it is easy, there are some levels that will stump you, even then you will persevere. My number one complaint is the amount of ads. I do understand from a corporate perspective that we need to make money off of a free game, but come on, After every level I have to watch an ad for a game I simply do not care for.

Tl;Dr: Overall good game, but too many ads.

This is my 2nd review. I wrote one after completing level 600 and agreed with most others that it wasn’t very challenging. NOW that I am above level 1,000, I can testify that it finally has gotten much harder. There are still a few easy ones sprinkled in, that only require a couple of block movements, but there are also ones that require every block to be used and some complicated shifting of blocks to earn all three stars. The key to it being more difficult, is that achieving two stars is easier and you may inadvertently align the blocks in such a way that you will earn only two stars while intending to shift them to earn three stars. Be persistent till you get above level one thousand and you are likely to be challenged.

This review is written after playing the first 30 levels. I enjoy the concept of this game and it seems it will eventually get challenging but the first 30 levels are not. Additionally, it’s aggressive with ads. It forces you to watch an ad after every single level and since the levels have been so easy it left me spending more time and effort watching and skipping ads than I’ve invested in the actual game. Less ads, an option to easily pay to not watch ads, and better visibility on what is to come in terms of level complexity would make this game better. Also, just a thought, letting the user launch the ball when they feel confident they’ve solved the puzzle would be cool rather than an auto-triggered cut-scene when you solve it (which leads into an ad) would definitely make me more invested in solving the puzzle rather than aimlessly moving pieces around willy nilly

The look and feel of the game is well done, which is why it got two stars, but the ads basically make it unplayable. There is an ad literally after every single level. I'm on around level 20 and the puzzles are still very easy, usually solving in 5-10 seconds. That means nearly 50% of my playtime is spent on ads.

I recently played another game that did the same thing, but offered a one time purchase of 3 bucks to remove all ads. Unfortunately, this game does not offer that option. I am OK with ads on an otherwise good game, I understand and support the developer's right to make a profit, but there really needs to be some type of cool down timer on the ads, say 1 - 2 minutes, so I can at least fly through the easy opening levels without stopping after each one.

TL;DR: This app is full of ads, one after each level, and doesn't give an IAP to remove... Don't recommend.

This could be a fun game, bu needs some fixing. After just 3 or 4 levels, after eac was finished, it went to a completely blank (Black) Page with nothing on it except for the little white “x” you have to tap to get the game back. I assume that’s where an ad goes, but again there was nothing at all. After a few levels of this, the White X disappeared and I had to shut the game down & then reopen it.
Another problem - if you’ve never played a game like this & aren’t sure what to do, the game will be no help as they give no instructions or hints at all. Nor is the settings button useful. No way to change the background.
And - perhaps worst of all - there are no scores at all. Just 1-3 stars and that’s it. It would be nice to have a scoring system added.

Honestly I loved this game until I got past level 60 and then suddenly any and all challenging puzzle solving was just thrown out the window. Like I’m as of this moment at level 93 and feel like the challenge isn’t anything more involved than the first 10 levels...like the dev team just got lazy at that point and just started mailing it in. All the unique aspects like the one directional blocks or the ones where you could change the direction just disappeared and I’m doing puzzles my 5 year old could figure out. I’m hoping you guys come up with an update to continue that upward movement of difficulty because right now it’s so easy that I’m losing interest...

I’m willing to wait for one more update, and then that’s it. It’s too bad, because the game itself is fun, but there are two issues that are VERY annoying. First, it won’t let me turn off the sound. Even when I click the icon, which then shows the sound is off, it plays sound, and I have to click to turn it on (still playing background music) and then click to turn it off again just to get it to stop. Second, WAY too many ads!!! And the sound gets turned on again every single time an ad plays! The music from the ad is automatically turned on, and then even after turning it off in the ad, the sound is back on in the game!
