Best Game
Fri May 09 2025 krivera94This is by far my favorite unpacking game on the Apple App Store to date! Super adorable graphics, and hints are easy to come by! I love that you can purchase ad-free version but it’s not necessary as the ads are not intrusive like other games.
The game itself is a little simple, just the main levels and not much else. There is an avatar icon in the top left corner of the game which leads me to believe that soon we will be able to customize other things and I look forward to what else the developers have in store for this sweet little game! While I do love the idea of having a customizable room like others have suggested, I would be more than satisfied with more levels and nothing else.
So far, the rooms have been original, and just challenging enough to keep my brain busy. The artwork is also beautiful and looks exactly as the screenshots show. Overall very satisfied!
Fantastic but not calming anymore…
Sun Aug 03 2025 Nikki2495I loved this game so much I even paid to remove ads and played daily. But after level 70, it’s gone from relaxing to frustrating. The levels are packed with too many pieces, tight timers, and impossible challenges—even with streak bonuses. I haven’t been able to complete a level without using freezes or hints since level 50. It’s become ad-heavy and stressful. Please consider a timer-free mode for higher levels—I enjoy the complexity but not the pressure.
EDIT: I waited almost 5 weeks for new levels after 84 and all I got were recycled levels from earlier levels or just straight up rip offs from dream room their partner app. Don’t make me wait weeks just to replay levels I’ve been playing. I tried to cut the app a break and think maybe only a few were like this but no. I’m on level 111 and if I think I have done the sushi restaurant with the pond 4 times already between the 2 apps. Don’t make separate apps if it’s the same content and don’t make us wait for recycled content.
Very good but flawed
Wed Sep 24 2025 louise237I would really appreciate if the developers take this review seriously. I have been a paid user of this game for some time and I do enjoy it greatly. However I am increasingly discouraged from playing because the placement of objects is not always picked up as the correct spot, even if it is less than a millimeter from where it’s supposed to be - and sometimes when you even put it in the correct spot but for whatever reason, the game doesn’t perceive it as properly placed. This is happening repeatedly and it makes the game impossible to play without selecting the booster to automatically place the item. Please address this. The game sh out of be more sensitive than this, so that if you are in approximately the correct area with your placement, the object goes into its place. Other games are not this finicky and don’t lack this level of sensitivity to the space you move an object to. Please fix this. Otherwise this would be my favorite game like this and I would be a patron for life.
Game is fun but annoying at times
Fri Jun 13 2025 sub0tsuThe game is fun, simple (usually); cute, charming, and creative level designs with much detail. However, my problem is this: placing items is sometimes VERY tedious, and it will end up costing me the whole level (or minutes wasted on ads to continue). I.e: sometimes it’s very hard to tell what exactly an unplaced item is, and that makes it hard to even get an idea of where it may go. On top of that, at times the placement is very finicky and will not register as being in the correct spot if you are so much as a few pixels off of its actual placement, which personally has lead me to believing it doesn’t belong in said spot at all, when in actuality it was just slightly off. I know, what’s a game without a challenge? But this game feels challenging sometimes for every wrong reason. And, granted, there are hints and such that you can buy with your earned coins/get from watching ads/earn from leveling, that do help greatly, though you end up spending your coins very fast this way.

Tue Nov 25 2025 Longest nickname ever 74562938This is a fun game but it gets harder if you want it you can have it when it gets harder. There’s levels and levels. It gets up to 100. I think something and you can write a review. I think it’s only me I can do that I don’t know so You might love it. VIP levels so you’re gonna love it. I’m writing a long review so you might want your parents to look at it it gets harder and harder and harder and harder and harder and harder serve me back over there’s one that gets hard that I was on so if you want to do it, you can do it. It gets hard and harder. Are you sure you want? You don’t have to pay for you just need your parents to help you and and if you lose it, you can still get it back. Are you ready? It gets fun. And you might love it and I don’t know so if you write a review.
Could've been a great game.
Sun Sep 07 2025 Allicat2757I absolutely loved this game and binged the entire thing in 5 days up to the last level of 181 and had paid for no ads. It was great up until 10 days ago after finishing all levels, a countdown came up saying more levels will come in 6 days. I came back 6 days later, the countdown has restarted. Online support said to update - no update available. I thought okay, if I delete the game then maybe these "so called" new levels will show up. Nope. There's also a restore button for if you lose your progress or purchases somehow. Doesn't work.
Lost all of my progress and now have to pay for "no ads" again just to get to 181 and not have any new levels. Apparently this isn't the first time this app has done this either. All in all, just avoid the game if you plan on playing more further than the 181 levels.
WHY DID THEY CHANGE
Sun Nov 02 2025 liv_27Ugh I LOVED this game. It was so good until you guys changed it for the stuff to come out of the box. I chose this one over every other one because it didn’t have you click the box and all the items come out, it had it so you could SEE all of the items. I can’t lie that brought my review from like a 4.5 to a 3. The other thing is.. they do not give you enough time at all. The amount of ads is crazy and after an Ad comes another 3 second Ad and it’ll glitch a lot & i have to close the app out & come back & get more Ad’s and sometimes it does it 3-4 times in a row. I’m so sad and mad you guys changed it to the items coming out of the box… please go back to being able to see ALL of the items & clicking which ones you wanted. This new update is not it im telling you.
Great rooms: stressful timers
Sun Jun 15 2025 EesopheeI’ve sunk way more hours into Fanstary Room than I expected, and I’m torn. On one hand, it’s flat-out adorable, the miniature furniture, layered lighting, and tiny décor details make every level feel like building a real-life dollhouse. The color palettes are chef’s-kiss gorgeous, and when I’m just looking around, the game is genuinely relaxing.
However I have a lot of issues with this game;
• Aggressive time limits. Instead of cozy decorating, I’m speed-tapping like I’m defusing a bomb.
• Pay-or-wait pressure. Ads pop up constantly, and nearly every “need a few more seconds?” prompt feels designed to push you toward micro-transactions for extra time or hints.
• Pixel-perfect placement. Sometimes Items have to be exactly where the dev wants them, if it’s a little off it won’t register, so you spend hints just to confirm it was right where you placed it the first time. Frustrating.
• Difficulty spike. Early stages are soothing; later levels feel almost impossible without paid boosts. That flips the whole “relaxing puzzle” promise on its head.
I want to love this game. The craftsmanship is obvious and the concept is fantastic. If the devs dialed back the timer pressure, toned down the ad bombardment, and gave placements a little wiggle room, Fanstary Room could be a five-star favorite. As it stands, it’s a gorgeous experience trapped inside a stressbox.
