So much potential
Tue Sep 16 2025 bubba7421I would rate this higher but I don’t like games that the only way to move on is to use the add ons. I wish it had a daily coins feature, anything to help gain more coins would be nice. I also wish you could do more ads to gain more coins. Or if you run out of lives, why can’t there be teams so you can get more lives that way. I feel like it would make this more eventful. Even have where you battle against someone else to get all the geckos into the holes. Something to help build more coins. I do really like this game, it has some great potential.
Games are supposed to be fun…
Tue May 13 2025 SneezarooI like this game in general but am finding it more frustrating than fun recently. I’m currently on level 83 and now it seems that every other level is labeled either “Hard” or “Very Hard”. It is nearby impossible to move any of the geckos enough to get one in their hole and start making progress. Even if I finally get one in the hole, half the time has elapsed and there is no way to complete the level in the remaining time. I guess the business model is based on the notion that some or most players will buy the extras to complete the hard levels but I think more people will just give up playing altogether. Developers would do better in the long run to make their games a little easier and retain their player base over time in my opinion. We play games to relax and have fun, not get frustrated constantly. I don’t mind paying a little for games that I can enjoy. This game would be so much better if they made the hard levels around 15% less hard (fewer walls, one less gecko, more time, etc).
Remove the timer!
Fri Jul 25 2025 SkepticalgooseThe visuals, haptics, music, animations, and style of the game is wonderful. Honestly I don’t usually feel this way about mobile games I get ads for, but this one is genuinely really fun! I like the complications and the puzzles.
One complaint, the timer. It ruins the game for me. There’s no fun to a puzzle game if I don’t get to puzzle it out and take my time, losing a life if it takes me any longer than the allotted 2 minutes or less. I just want to make the silly geckos go into their silly slots, but after 30 seconds of figuring out how to get one of them in, i fail. It’s stressful and frankly not worth the trouble.
I’d like a timeless game mode, or maybe timing yourself counting UP instead of DOWN to see how fast you can do each level. Had to delete for now.
Update: Lost Money
Tue Aug 05 2025 Lenabean23“This game used to be one of my favorites until level 2005. I was excited about the new updates, but now I see they were distractions from deceptive design tactics. On level 2005, I was forced to spend money to continue a streak due to an unsolvable level. I took a screenshot and verified every possible move there were none. The timer also runs faster than advertised (I measured it), stealing 6–8 seconds per game. This is manipulative and feels like a scam.
I now suspect other ‘stuck’ levels weren’t about strategy they were about pushing microtransactions. That’s deceptive, unfair, and a breach of trust. I’m requesting a full refund for all purchases, as the game failed to deliver the paid content I was charged for. Until the developers address this, I’ll be deleting the app and warning other players. You had something great and ruined it.”
Too hard unless you pay
Tue Aug 19 2025 AngelsDarkRoseI loved this game for a minute. But at a certain point the levels get way too hard. You HAVE to pay for buffs to win.
I’m on level 693 they literally only give you 1 minute to put 12 geckos away. ALL of them have multiple colors or are dirty or have some other special before they can go into their home. So that at least 24 actions that have to be completed.
And there are only eight open spaces with any gecko that has a space next to it only having open space. So I have to inch the geckos to the holes until I clear one out to have enough space to move freely. That alone takes the full minute.
This makes me very sad. I was enjoying this game a lot. The geckos were so cute but it’s clear now that this game is essentially a scam to force you to spend a couple dollars here and there repeatedly mining you for cash by presenting these impossible levels. They get you to enjoy it just enough to make you think you can then dangle how fun it was so you pay just to get passed this lever to get back to the fun ones but the joke is they are all too hard now.
I think I’m going to finally delete this app.
It’s alright
Mon Sep 08 2025 Freay_44The ads for this game do sort of show how it’s played, so brownie points for that. I like actually seeing the game you made being advertised rather than a completely different game. They don’t tell you the levels are timed though. I’m removing a star for that, because I like puzzle games like this, but I hate having to beat a clock. I would really like a relaxed mode…having to scramble for a solution to a ticking clock just isn’t fun to me. I’m like 180 levels in…ish? And I’m already kinda just over it…if it had a relaxed or untimed mode I would probably come back to it, because it does have potential, but for now the clock kind of ruins it for me.
I LOVE the game play but…
Sun Jun 08 2025 VozintheWildernessIt’s not fun if you can’t win. This is unique game play that is challenging and addictive. Until I’m so mad and frustrated I’m ready to delete it! Why?
Challenging beyond reality: starting around level 500, every single level has been difficult to the point that I could not solve it without purchasing coins and special features. With actual money. I’ve done that, but I won’t again. It makes me mad. It’s not fun if we can’t win.
Timers: they are too short. Some of these could spend 5-8minutes trying to solve and still might not make it. Which then pushes you to the previous point.
Lives: with only 5 lives to try before you have to wait for a refill, you spend all this time trying again and again and just when you think you might have it, you’re out of lives. Back to watching ads or paying to play.
This game has a TON of potential. One of the best new styles of puzzles, because the geckos move and change shape - it’s great!! But it’s not fun if there’s no hope of success. Help!
So much potential!
Wed Aug 13 2025 GeektendoFirstly, this game is so much fun! I love a good puzzle game and the cute little geckos make this one even better. I love that the puzzles are actually challenging as you progress.
However, the timer is awful. There should be an option to turn it off. I like to solve puzzles and relax. It makes it stressful with such a short window, especially on the hard and very hard levels. You can’t actually work it out with the short timer so you’re doomed to fail.
Additionally, you eventually get paywalled. You get 80 coins for an ad and 40 for finishing a puzzle, regardless of difficulty, but it costs 900 to add 30 seconds of time. There’s also no other ways of grinding for coins than paying for them.
This game has so much potential. Please expand coin grinding, adjust power up costs, rewards, and timers with level scaling, and add a timer free mode.
Fun but too hard too quickly
Sat Aug 09 2025 FAA1422I started out really enjoying this game but it soon got impossible to move on through the level without using tools. The tools go quick and the only way to replenish us to purchase. That goes quick too. After each level if you pick the smaller points you still have to watch an add. You can only gain 80 points by watching an add but just to add a little more time to the game it’s 900 points. That’s a lot for getting so little. The game lags a lot and it ends up costing precious seconds. As much as I have enjoyed it and spent money I will probably not be playing anymore.
Timer is stressfully short
Mon Jul 07 2025 AdWatcher647/7/25: A timer free version of this game would be much more fun and relaxing.
I would even be happy to watch a 30 second ad between every round for that.
Or have the timer, but if you go beyond the time, you continue playing that round, but only are rewarded with less coins when you do complete.
Or allow us 60 seconds extra time by watching 30 second ads. It’s Impossible to earn enough coins to buy even one timer extension.
Currently, the timer is too short. Even after several tries and I have it figured out, I still can’t move the geckos around quick enough to complete.
