Couple suggestions
Sun Jul 19 2020 chelsea14🎀Great game, fun to play when I need something to pass the time, but there are a few things that could make it better. First, limited time challenges should be longer than three days. Once you get further in the game, it’s harder to win levels, which means harder to earn tickets, and less chance of completing the limited time challenges before they expire, especially when every change to the room costs around eighty tickets. When you only get around twenty tickets in one level (although in some you earn much less) it will take a while to actually make one change. At the very least, changes should be less expensive. You could also make it to where on hard levels, tickets are doubled just like the coins. Second, we should be able to choose when we get to use the prizes. If we earn a one hour life prize, we should be able to choose when to use it, not just when we earn it because sometimes I’m not able to use it right then and then it just goes to waste. Finally, it should be easier to earn diamonds. Except for the occasional time when you can watch a video to earn ten diamonds, the only time you can get diamonds is if you buy them. So once you use them, you’re out of luck unless you want to spend real money on them. All in all, this is a fun game that could be even better with just a few adjustments.
Fun but money waster
Thu Aug 13 2020 jaz2xIll admit, it is a fun game to play.. however, i swear its rigged because once you reach like level 60 or around there, it is almost impossible to pass the levels because there is not enough moves and then you use all of your energy very quickly so you are not able to play for like 30 minutes to around 2 hours while they refill. The time challenges are also way too short also taking everything into consideration. There is more but i guess that is the most annoying problem in the game because if you run out of moves, you have to spend 90 gems to get such a small amount of extra moves(5) and then you can easily run out of moves and then you have to keep spending and taking it all into consideration together, it can get very annoying at times and really makes me want to throw my phone because its fun but this is really almost a dealbreaker especially when you get almost addicted to the game. However, if that was fixed, the game is actually very fun and i would say probably better than all of the other types of these games put there for so many reasons (especially because its so realistic and I especially like the tap feature in the levels instead of the swiping gems situation ) + more , all of the other games also have way too many ads and the graphics are horrible and have so many pop ups and “tutorials” that just waste time all around and it is just so annoying which is why i really like this game over the other ones also.
Too Much of the “Other” Game, Not enough decorating
Thu Apr 16 2020 GraysmompcbSo, here’s the deal. I love the part of the game when we get to make choices (although you only choose between 3 options that may or may not be your style and don’t get to choose the placement, as it appears in the Ad I saw) and decorate/revitalize spaces. However, the amount of time you have to spend on the “other” game you have to play to earn “money” or “tickets” far outweighs the time you get to spend playing the game you actually want to play. I’m talking at least 10:1. So, for example, spend 10 minutes playing a candy-crush offshoot type game to earn money in order to be able to decorate/paint/etc. 4-5 items/area within, say, 1 minute. Then you are out of “money” and have to play more random games for more. You don’t earn or accrue any of the game’s currency over time/daily, etc. You can play the games to get some, but diamonds can only be purchased with actual dollars from your bank account. I think I’ve spent like $20-30 this week and have decorated 2 rooms and have completed only part of a home exterior and garden. So, in a nutshell, lots of real money needed and time playing another random game to get very little time playing the decorating portion. I hope this gets fixed! Otherwise, I’m going back to playing “Design Home”. Sorry guys! I do think your placement and timing for pop up ads for purchasing things is genius. Tricked me several times! I give you a slow clap and head nod for that!
Why the ads all of a sudden???
Fri Aug 20 2021 katlaurelOkay I actually really really like this game! I have ADD and it’s really hard for me to find games I can stick with long term and this has become one of them for sure. The designs are beautiful and the match-3 game is actually one of the more fun ones I’ve played. There are definitely levels that are hard just to put you at a standstill and get you to spend money, but overall, it’s not too bad.
That’s why I HATE having to leave a review (something I’ve done maybe 5 times in my life on like anything??), but I have to let people know how INCESSANT these ads have gotten. I opened the app maybe 2 days ago and, all of a sudden, there was an option to watch ads for extra moves before and after a level. Honestly? Not the worst thing, I’ve kind of been hoping for an update like that for those few stupidly hard levels. But now they’re popping up more and more frequently, like every other level type frequency?? And for what?? I know nobody who actually gets the money for these games is actually in a pinch for cash. So why the VERY abrupt overabundance of the same 4 ads??
Seriously, it’s a good game, but I’m considering deleting it. The gameplay isn’t worth it if it’s blocked by all the ads. Not to mention the fact that it’s actually messing up the game itself, causing major lagging and glitching that has NEVER happened before these ads started. Really hoping this issue gets resolved soon, but if not, it was a fun run while it lasted.
Ok
Sun Mar 19 2023 HORSE GIRL 290So when I first downloaded this game it was in the car coming home from Florida and I live in North Carolina so it was about an eight hour drive. I needed something to pass the time so I downloaded this game because I love designing and building things. And at first the levels were very easy to beat but once you get to level 55 the levels get impossible. Also if you don’t pass a level on the first try it takes a life away and once you run out of life’s you have to wait 20 minutes each time to get one life. Also you are helping clients the whole time I thought that you could design ur own house for yourself. But no. Also you r probably wondering what the “levels” are and this game is more of candy crush or solitaire. Because that’s the levels and most of the time you spend in the levels so it’s not what it appears. You earn money by beating each level. And with the money that’s how you by stuff to redecorate the house. I do like how you can go back and change the houses that you designed previously. And THERE IS NO ADDS!!!!!! But the re is so many in app purchases and it takes up all the room on ur screen. So if you are really desperate for this game do it get. But if your like me I would rather have gotten a game similar. Because none of the other reviews told me this so I thought 💭 t was a good app but boy how wrong I was.I hope this was helpful have a amazing day !!❤️❤️
Repetitive
Wed May 27 2020 JudaehvnfThis was one of my favorite “match three games“ since it’s just a little bit different by eliminating groups of blocks rather than swapping gems, and I really liked the decorating portion of the game. Similar to Homescapes, but with much more realistic remodels, that I thought might be giving me ideas for my own home! But has anybody else gotten to a high enough level to realize that the game just keeps repeating itself? Thus, the reason for my low rating. I'm on level 1378, and I was feeling like I had played many of the levels previously, but I started the game again on a different device and just reached level 400. Within the last 10 or 20 levels I realized my two devices are matching up game after game, despite the vast difference in level number. Also, as other reviewer’s have stated the game does not give you any additional earnings the higher you go, but the cost of the remodel is becoming significantly higher. At this point I now have to win at least 10 levels for every single item that I “purchase“ for my upgrade. As for the people who complain that you have to spend real money to play this game, they are wrong. Yes, you do have to spend real money to get gems, but the gems aren’t necessary to the game. No, you may not be able to refill your lives, or pay for extra moves without them, but that doesn’t mean that they are required.
Greedy let-down.
Tue Jan 24 2023 ShadebruProp Brothers show present you guys as stand-up honest professionals. Not looking to take advantage of their clients by over charging or under providing. So I guess I naively expected the same on their app. There are several game apps that are very similar to this one and they are ALL THE SAME. When first starting, the game makes it just easy enough to win rewards. But here is where my first disappointment in you guys. Just like all the other similar games, after making it reasonable easy to win, and get you hooked and invested, the game’s difficulty levels shoots up, the cost of items go up. The game rounds that are supposed to help earn coins or tickets become more and more difficult to complete. You offer double rewards if you win on your first try and if by some miracle you succeed, the doubled $ prize is barely enough to purchase a single item for whatever room we’re working on. The gem packages are ridiculously over priced and does not buy you much booster wise. I could keep going with many mor examples of this app being nothing more than a greedy money grab. At the very least, if you’re going to make each level harder and harder, you should raise the prize $ each time you raise the difficulty level! I’ll be blunt. If you strip down this game app to its base framework, you are left with a carnival game that you know it’s rigged against you. Greedy greedy money-grab. Very little integrity. Shame on you, property brothers.
I love this game but...
Tue Oct 27 2020 AlexWiley810I have 600 gems in my piggy bank but can’t access them. It says I can upgrade my piggy bank to store more gems, but why would I if I can’t access them? Gems can get you more lives and moves in the game. The only time I had enough gems to add more lives was the first time I played. Ever since then I have earned a ton of gems but cannot access them from my piggy bank. I’ve tried to look my problem up on google and every review I’ve seen says that the app creator has not answered the question of why nobody can access their gems. I love the game because of the levels, and I love the levels more than actually customizing the rooms. The thing is that it is extremely hard to play the levels because if you get to a hard level and can’t achieve it, you either have to use your boosts or if you don’t have any boosts you have to wait at least 30 minutes for 1 life. There are rewards you can achieve to have infinite life for an 1 hour to 3 hours, but once you run out, and you have enough gems in your piggy bank, there is no way to access them. Also, to refill your lives or add 5 moves to your game it is 90 gems, and you only start out with 100. I am on level 902 so I obviously like the game, but would like to express my issues with it.

Wed Jun 03 2020 hbil4327This game looks like every designers dream game, right? As someone who thoroughly enjoys creating spaces, I was convinced this would be everything I needed in a game. Boy how wrong I was. This game is set up to draw you in and then the levels get increasingly harder and harder and you only have 5 lives to play games unless you spend all of your real world, hard earned money. And some of the levels are just impossible to beat. You can tell they change the game as you play because after enough times of trying and waiting a half hour for a life to come back, all of a sudden the colored blocks fall so you can get a power up. It’s honestly a joke. I have been counting how many tries it takes to beat a level (mind you, I’m TRYING to beat it) and the most games I’ve played to level up is 37 times. THIRTY SEVEN TIMES and you know how many levels you have to beat in order to even buy anything? I’d say the average is 3. So if it takes 37 times to beat ONE level and you need to beat 3 in order to buy anything, and you only get 5 tries until you’re out of lives and have to wait a half hour to get just one of those lives back, you’re sitting at 2-3 days just to buy an overpriced dresser that’s not even you’re style. There are only 3 options for each item you get to buy and most of the time, you’re just settling. It’s not what the rating makes it out to be. I have no idea who is rating it this high because I’ve read so many reviews that feel the same way as I do.
Daily Bonus
Sun Mar 22 2020 Penny BaumannOk, I give up on many things you could do to improve this fun game, and when it first came out I had read where you were going to lower the price of items to buy to finish a room and actually for a while that’s what I thought I noticed, now the amounts have gotten huge. During this crazy time we are having with the Coronavirus, how about some free play? I can go through my 5 chances in under 3 to fine minutes and still never finish the level, heck, sometimes it takes a day of continuous trying and I still may not clear it 😳😷🤒🤧Final Update: do you actually care what so many of us are trying to explain to the developers of this game? Because it has almost become ridiculous how difficult some of these levels are. Update: by taking the time to read other reviews it made me feel like I am not the only one having issues, please please please update because I truly enjoy the game but the developers have made it almost impossible. Original review:I really enjoy the game but some levels are too difficult by far, if that’s done this way to make you have to purchase more moves it’s really unfortunate because it’s happening very often and I am on level 106; so I know how to play games. All other games at least give you a daily bonus or credit of some kind, please make a few tweaks because all that said I really do enjoy the game.
