Fun but no more levels
Fri Oct 13 2023 drivethruwhaleFirst of all yes there are a bunch of ads, that’s just how these types of games are. The basic gameplay of this is pretty simple, merge the blobs to make them worth more, sell the merged ones so you can afford to spawn more blobs, eventually you’ll have enough cash to expand the screen so you can fit more blobs to merge for higher values. After expanding the screen enough times it will reset to the smallest but add a gimmick of some kind, a timed area to “donate” blobs to so you can get rewards, a treasure chest on a stick that gets longer until you’re able to swing it into the sell area and get rewards, and a pinwheel with four slots right below the spawn area that will either give you more blobs or destroy the ones that fall into it. This last one is annoying because one of the slots is for extra blobs but only if you watch an ad, so it’s constantly asking you if you want to. I expanded the screen as far as it will go and instead of resetting it just stopped letting me upgrade. Seems I’ve run out of levels and am stuck with the pinwheel, so I’ll be dropping this until and if they add more levels.
Remove the pinwheel or I will riot
Wed Oct 25 2023 ZozzberryI love this game, I have been playing it nonstop since I downloaded it- The pinwheel mode has been so infuriating that I have been on the verge of deleting the app all together. It slows the game down to a crawl because you have to wait for the side you want to be facing upward, and if you accidentally hit the +2 one you have to wait so long before you can choose to skip the ad. I first thought that mechanic was fine but now every time I see the option pop up my blood boils. I miss the sliding gun mode. The chest mode sucked, it’s not even worth it to pull the chest down because the rewards are nowhere near equivalent to what you put into it. And it’s really finnicky when you pull it over, usually it didn’t register the first time I did it. The sliding gun mode was stressful but at least fulfilling the requirements was worth it, I felt incentivized to do it, the other modes have just been degrading in quality.
Ads not too often and very addicting
Wed Dec 13 2023 akayamoI started playing this because i got bored, then as i played it more I realized how much i played it. it was so fun and I was just unaware of the prestige feature. The prestige takes a while to do but it is worth it to upgrade the jelly. I still play now but the ad breaks are kind of annoying. I also sometimes have done a super satisfying combo by lining them all up then dropping one last jelly in which makes them combine in a row. At this point I had also been unaware of another feature where there’s a number in a circle, i think that is my level, but it gives really good rewards and you can spend some money to get more rewards because theres 3 rows, 1 free 2 cost, but the amount of rewards they give is really crazy, like 400 prestige coins!!!???! that is super useful!! I rated this 5 stars because of how fun it is, but also because it passed the time so well. I play it on the bus waiting for my stop, and it feels like a breeze.
Sad and disappointed
Tue Feb 13 2024 NBarry9I downloaded this game around half a year ago and have been obsessed with it! I was telling my husband how much I love that they don’t try and ask you to spend real money (except for the no ads offer) and I said that I’m scared they are going to limit the game play and try and charge you to keep playing. You used to have unlimited jelly (obviously you had to sell jelly to get coins to buy more and had limited space that could be upgraded to hold more, with the coins you build up in the game). Not real money. Now you only get 1 jelly per minute and can pay to get more. It’s such a let down that a good game finally came out and they had to change it to make more money off of it. There should at least be the two versions. The old version and the current version. I don’t mind the large amount of ads that were already in the game because the game play was free. But now the amount of ads is ridiculous (same amount as before) if we have to pay to play the amount of time that we used to.
Good but bad update
Sat Jan 27 2024 Bry_1243Was originally going to rate 5 stars because it is just like the ads and does not bring you into some candy crush game. Ads time to time but not too often, and really satisfying and addicting. But there’s an update now where u have to have red stones to add more jelly and if you don’t do that, you have to wait hours for the jelly bucket to be filled. This has gotten annoying, especially if you’re planning to put a lot of time into this game. And also, you can’t use ads to add more jelly in the backer, but instead you have to spend diamonds to do so. It was much more fun and simpler before, and wish it would be changed back. Overall, satisfying game though, just mini updates that is making it more annoying.
New Update is Terrible!
Thu Jan 25 2024 jfjdiididThis was my favorite game and they completely ruined it! I paid to remove ads because I enjoyed this game so much… and then they updated it today.
They got rid of the upgrades you could buy with diamonds and added red jewels as a new currency. Next to the add jelly button on the bottom left, they added a sand bucket which generates one jelly or “click” per minute and has a max capacity of 200. Instead of being able to dispense as many jellies as I had space and money for, now I have to wait for the sand bucket to refill. The also added six EXTREMELY annoying ads to buy more in game currency on the side of the screen- which completely ruins my experience (also not to mention I paid to remove all ads, but apparently theirs don’t count).
It’s obvious this new update is just a cash grab. They want you to get frustrated you can generate infinite jellies and give in and buy one of their 50 dollar currency packs. I am so sad and I hope they change it back to the way it used to be. I’m done playing this game until they do.
This game WAS great
Sat Jan 27 2024 Kara22552I loved this game. I loved that I could play for HOURS. I got to mess around with the jelly physics, I got to prestige. It was fantastic. I had spent the money to not get ads, but it was a small fee for a game I loved. I log on today to play and wind down for the night to find that they’ve made a MAJOR update. I was BOMBARDED with in-game pop up’s asking me to purchase no ads and gems. After about 3 minutes I finally got through them. When I finally got to the actual game play I find out that they have “reworked” the jellies and now you get 200 jellies then have to wait 200 minutes for them to respawn. Making the game like EVERY OTHER GAME. Completely loosing the unique factor this game had. Then when I come over here to write this review their update log says this update was just “bug fixes” so now they’re not only changing the entire game and point of the game they’re LYING. I wish I had never given this company my money. And will not be playing this game anymore and turning my friends away from this game and company.
Misleading
Fri Jan 26 2024 AmandaSmith0424The game was GREAT until I hit a certain level, it gave me an ad & when I clicked off the whole game had changed. Instead of getting free jellies, you get up too 200 & after that you can watch a few ads to get 50 at a time or spend these red gems they add out of no where too that you only get so many of before you have to spend real $ to get them. You get 1 jelly a minute so 200 minutes to fill it up & it does NOT add anything past that & it’s VERY easy & quick to use 200 jellies, less than 2 minutes to use them all. You also were able to use blue diamonds to upgrade things like “jelly multiplier” where it adds an extra every so often but after the change, the diamonds are only able to be used on buying random jelly’s that pop up so not only do you not get to finish upgrading things, but they become almost obsolete & they still give the diamonds as “extras” when you sell jellies but not the red gems. It doesn’t make any sense & completely ruined the game for me.
Holy in Game Currency
Sat Jan 27 2024 laurashton16I really liked this game to pass the time while watching TV that doesn’t really need much focus. I’d always fill my cup up till it was too full to go farther, then watch ad after ad to get the jellies at the bottom until I could morph something cool. I’d spend as long as possible without prestiging doing this over stretches of time. I probably watched a zillion ads, and I even purchased ad free to avoid forced ones. It was fun.
Now, I have to buy jellies with these red things? And then I have to buy the jellies I used to get free with an ad? And I can’t even buy it unless there’s room in my cup? And the shop of upgrades of percentage chances to get bonuses is gone - so all the diamonds I spent there were useless. Had this been the format the whole time, I’d have saved those. Now those advantages are gone.
It feels like the fun was strangled from the game.
I don’t expect my review to change anything. It just makes me sad when a game that has a good concept overloads itself with in app purchases and limitations. I don’t like constantly being presented with options to spend real money to make my game play easier. I’d have paid $5 to keep the game exactly as it was before. I’m sure with the amount of ads I watched, I made you guys that much.
The only addition I like is the inclusion of the jellies tab on the side where you see names of the different colored jellies and their stats. Cool to know what you’re working towards.
Was great….till it wasn’t
Thu Jan 25 2024 WizardtronThis game was great. Ads were tolerable and you didn’t have to pay to get farther. However I opened the game today and notice a big change, you can now run out of jelly and have to use the new ‘ruby’ currency to refill your jelly? Either that or wait a billion years for it to refill on its own. In the later stages this is horrible. You’re gonna be having to refill the bucket so often to make any progress. I will be deleting this game if this isn’t taken out. I understand the devs need to make money but this is not a good solution to that. Another bad change is they took out upgrades, this would allow you to get more jelly or have a higher chance of getting a valuable jelly or double the amount of jelly per spawn. Awful change to get rid of that entirely. What were you thinking???!
