Overall great game but there are some bugs
Fri Aug 29 2025 sakura_petals_My only issue is sometimes the sound cuts out after an ad and I have to close the app and go back in to get it to work. This is especially a problem when trying to go back and do previous daily challenges as it will often do it over and over forcing me to complete a level completely soundless. I love the sounds of the game so its kind of a bummer but otherwise it's a great game. Also, I already completed the Queen's treasure challenge but it keeps prompting me to start the challenge again. Obviously I cannot because I already have the treasure. It would be really cool if you came up with new challenges for us to move on to as we finish them. I like the feature of being able to pick up where you left off if you don't finish, but it would be cool if you had new Friday challenges when you do complete it.
Addicted
Fri Aug 15 2025 MaddyO231First, I would like to say that I’m not a bot, just got grammar drilled into me. I am easily confused with one, as I write with actually good composition and grammar. This game is amazing, and immediately got me hooked. While there are ads, they are spaced, not on or after every level. This game is relaxing, and actually works my brain. The ads for this game, or at least the ones that I have seen, are all correct, and this game can indeed be challenging. A few improvements that could be made are changes in the gameplay every so often, like things you have to avoid. Ever played minesweeper? Like that, with maybe Gombe and stuff. The game did have hard levels on the hard levels unlike most games, so that is a plus. I fully recommend this game, and think all of you should play it.
Full of ads, fake leaderboard, but fun game
Tue Jul 15 2025 lolbuddiesI love the game Queens, so I downloaded this app. However, it’s full of ads, which makes up hard to play unless you buy adblock. Even when you buy adblock you STILL have to watch ads if you want to play past daily challenges, for every single one. And they’re not short ads either, their 45-60s ads per daily challenge. Besides that, the global leaderboard is also fake. I know this because I got to the #1 spot within a day and when I downloaded this app on another device, my original account was nowhere to be seen at the top (also all the names and scores of the other top players were completely different). This is a let down to competitive players and I would really appreciate an actual leaderboard with real players. Besides that, it’s still a fun game and I do appreciate the different skins and challenges, so I’d still say the app is worth downloading if you’re willing to either shill out $3.99 for no ads or to sit through an ad every 3 minutes.
Fun, some small stuff
Fri Aug 15 2025 KainByI really enjoy this game, I’ve played over 350 levels since I downloaded this on 7/10 and I’m at the top of my leaderboard by about 130 stars. but it feels weird to me that there is no reward for being far up in the leaderboard. Maybe like a 24-hour ad break per 2 weeks you’re up there or something like that.
I also agree with another review I read speaking about level difficulty. It doesn’t seem to get harder and even some “very hard” levels are not difficult and have like 4 queens.
My minor complaint is that some of the color skins are cool, but hard to tell the difference between some colors that are close in shade. (I have taken a colorblind test, I have full color vision😂)
I do really enjoy playing though, so thanks for a cool game
Ads and updates
Sun Apr 20 2025 BatMaňads: This game is fun but there are WAYYY too many ads, I get ads after switching apps for a couple seconds and there’s an ad after LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE LEVEL. Another thing is that you’re not allowed to buy ads permanently…??? it’s like a subscription to a streaming service!
updates: the updates are cool in all with the daily rewards finally working and the events but cmon now 5 coins a day??? you might as well get rid of the whole daily rewards system… and I think the jumps between the gems needed for the events are a little extreme for the little time we have, it’d take 595 levels total to get every reward in the event.
bottom line: lower the ad count, i understand it’s how you keep the game free but an ad after every literal level is a bit excessive and annoying. make the events just a tad bit easy or add more time. Love the game!
Pretty good!
Wed Sep 24 2025 Kane from Dream BBQIf you’re looking for a good mobile game to play for 1-5 minutes at a time, and you like newspaper-style puzzles, this is probably one of the best options. It’s very polished and well-made, which is surprisingly rare when it comes to mobile games. Most other options lag and overheat your phone, and this avoids that while actually looking good.
The game itself is also pretty good, and every element is well animated. There are a few problems with it, though, mainly that it will often place queens when I didn’t need to and the queens at the beginning of the levels are often in places that completely eliminate any difficulty in it.
This does have some of the same problems as most mobile games, aside from performance issues: It has a lot of micro-transactions and ads. But, even though these are somewhat constant, it isn’t to the point where it’s obnoxious. You will always have at least two levels in between ads, and ads will never interrupt levels unless you close and reopen the app.
Fix some minor gameplay issues, and this is definitely a five star game.
Many ways to win levels, but not actually
Tue Jun 03 2025 em.petersennI do like this game, it is addicting I'm just having a few issues with it.
I've turned off haptics in settings and they are still on, there's no actual way for me to turn them off and that's annoying.
There's also many levels with a lot of ways to win, like the queens can be in different spots than where the developers have put them and to still win with following the rules, but it's set that the Queen has to be put in the specific spot to win the level. So I'm having to either use all my hints so I don't run out of lives, or guess where they go and sometimes I run out of lives and have to redo the whole level. So after playing a few levels I have to close the app so I don't get angry. It's frustrating.
Overall fun
Fri Jul 04 2025 jasotasticOverall, the game is fun, but there are some issues that make the game fall short of five stars.
1. “Global” rankings: I have this suspicion that the rankings are not truly global. I have been playing for less than a week and am now the global number 1 with 500 stars.
2. Additionally, after reaching the number one spot, I played a hard level that informed me only 7% got it on the first try. How is it possible to have ANY other players that attempted the puzzle if I am at the top?
3. As some have said, the levels seem repetitive, but that may just be due to pattern recognition.
4. I thought I was just previewing the backgrounds and ended up spending 1,000 coins. Perhaps a “buy” button is in order.
5. It would be nice to know how many gems are required to reach the next reward in the queen event.
This is a really good game that has fluid animations and is responsive. The graphics for this game are just swell. It’s clear that the designers put some effort into making sure it looked nice.
could be fun, but never enough info to solve
Wed Jul 30 2025 qolliewexactly as the title says. this game could be fun but in most of the puzzles that are larger than like, a 5x5 square (which the small ones are insanely easy. theres no in-between it being basically not even a puzzle, all the way to being legitimately impossible), you are not given enough information to solve without using hints or losing a bunch of hearts. sometimes you cant X enough tiles by using the "rules" and strategies the game teaches you, leaving you with multiple spots that the next queen(s) can go. i wouldnt call this a sudoku puzzle because if this flaw--games like sudoku are engaging because a fresh board gives you everyhting you need to solve, without brute forcing it. i wanted to like this, as im a fan of sudoku, nonograms, etc., but this is designed so poorly that you cant even olay it properly.
Fun-ish, but easy
Sat May 17 2025 Jannika NiarosePlayed the first 40 levels, and the only slight hiccup in difficulty is that the grey and blue confuse my brain - one looks like a highlighted or greyed out version of the other, especially if it is only one square of that color. Through those first 40 levels, the logic never gets much more complex than "red queen must be in this row, so rule out all other spaces in this row" or "blue queen must be in this domino, so rule out adjacent dominos for other colors." Fun, quick little puzzles. Banner ads, however, along with 'rewarded ads' for extra loot/powerups(?). There is an ad removal offer for $2.99 .... per week. This is a game I could easily see spending three dollars to purchase, but not a recurring subscription amounting to over $150/year. Yikes!
