Lives are messed up
Mon Dec 12 2022 EmilyP8589**Updated** It’s a decent game but like others have said, the lives are messed up. Frequently uses two lives instead of one. And I also feel the coin accumulation is way too low for the cost of coin items.
Update: I found a support email and emailed the devs like 3 days ago about the lives issue. I got a response that they would work on it and today there was an update and it appears to be fixed! Great job to the dev team on listening to their customers and providing prompt fixes for reported issues!
Enjoyed at first.
Thu Jan 19 2023 harlowshadowWhen I first downloaded this game I really enjoyed. As time goes on I’m starting to slowly dislike it. The first thing I don’t like is the way they have you use your stars, I understand when it comes to redecorating the place, but when you end up using all of your stars to talk to someone, to investigate a sound, or and object, to sleep, etc. those are just some of the things that you have to use them on. The game starts getting boring because you are using your time to just waste your earned stars. The second thing that is making me really dislike this game is the fact when you run out of all 5 lives you have to wait for the time to bring them back which is normal but there are so many times where I run out and I go back into the app hours later and it only has given me one back and says 29 minutes left for the next one, I’ve had it where the next day I only have one life back. I’m getting to the point of just deleting the game.
Life Reset
Thu Mar 09 2023 baesimpsI have been playing this game for about a month or so now and I gotta say, I absolutely love it!! It’s a good brain teasing game with an interesting storyline. However, once you hit the 200s with the levels, the puzzles get pretty convoluted. That’s fine, but I feel like we either need more lives, or the reset time for the lives should be MUCH smaller. In the beginning, it isn’t noticeable cus the levels aren’t bad, but after a while it feels like it takes 5 minutes or less to run out of lives and then you’re stuck waiting hours for more. ESPECIALLY because after level 200 something, the activities require 2 stars to complete instead of the 1. It makes it that much harder to progress into the game and therefore I lose my momentum.
It’s a really fun game and I would hate to delete it, but there’s a point where it doesn’t feel like it’s worth it to play. Hope this helps out.
Very fun
Sun Jan 29 2023 catcute223This game is really great the concept is creative (and if I could actually date Sam I would). But there’s an issue with lives I don’t feel the traditional 5 is enough because for mecit can take up to a freaking week to solve one difficult level because if these stupid lives. They also take a long time to fill up again which is also very annoying. And is it just me or like once you get to level 215 it feels too hard probably just me. Items cost way too much especially since coins are really scarce. I don’t mind watching ads to get items because all of the ads are pretty appealing and appropriate so good job on that. I love the storyline so I’m going to continue to play the game and if it gets too hard I’ll switch over to word mansion yup I play that one too and it’s great.
Problems with lives
Mon Apr 04 2022 Awesome swag person 55I absolutely love this game. I would tell you to download it right now if I didn’t have problems with my lives. I’m on level 304, in the beginning I didn’t have problems at all. But now I only have 2/5 hearts. I just tested it out to see what would happen if I intentionally lost 2 rounds, and instead of having 3 hearts I’m down to 0. It’s been doing this for a couple of days now, but I thought I was just losing more rounds than I thought. Other than this problem the game is amazing, I play it every day when I’m on my lunch at work or when I’m at home. It’s easy and challenging at the same time, and the story mode is also very interesting as well. I just hate that I’m losing hearts out of no where. If there’s a way someone can fix this, that would be great. I don’t plan on deleting the app, I would just like to play more!
Paying for the games rewards? Not worth it.
Sun Nov 27 2022 RosieNugThis game has a wonderful concept as I dislike games like candy crush, but enjoy these matching games and home improvement games. I found that the game making me pay to cash out on the coins I had already earned was odd. You want me to pay $2.99 to just get my rewards from each game? I’ve been playing for quite a few levels and each one ends with a losing sound, telling me that I need to pay to get my 600 coins from the game I won. So, I am on level 20 and still only have about 150 coins. The last straw was when I enviably lost a game. I read that I needed about 190 coins to get a second chance, coins that I had earned, but obviously had not received. This game is infuriating to play unless you pay all the expenses that go with it, not to mention the bonus games that you win and are expected to pay just to get bonus prizes. This game is not worth it, so I’m deleting it. Thank you very much.
Lives broken and Scarlett
Tue Oct 25 2022 anon1387The game is great I’m already on level 1,000 after just a month it’s very addicting and the story is captivating. However once it starts to cost you 2 stars to do tasks it takes 2 lives to play a level and not 1 and when you hit 3 lives you still only loose 2. If your going to use lives to play levels it should only use one per level. My only other issue with this is the character Scarlett, I know it’s to add to the story but Anna only brings up taking her to court once then is fine with her breaking in whenever? No! Why aren’t we given the option to remove her from the story, her character takes away from the enjoyment of finding the mystery’s and playing the peaceful levels, wish there was an option to remove her from the storyline.
Great game but…
Fri Sep 08 2023 Shangryla85The game has been really great so far. One of my favorites. I even paid for no ads and I never do that. I do have 2 complaints though. There aren’t enough gifts to keep you going if you run into a tough spot. There really should be a little more giving of matches or shuffles. The other thing, and this is almost making me want to quit the game, is once you hit the studio, it gets ridiculous. Everything costs 5 stars, even something simple like “pick a movie”. I don’t mind spending the game “tokens” but whether you are placing a new bed or asking a question to your friend, it’s 5. The game is about tile matching and decorating. We shouldn’t have to spend so much for the storyline.
Lives
Wed Nov 16 2022 LaRae08This game will show that you’ve earned 4 lives after being shut off all night (not at “full” lives) and only let you play 2. You’ll get through the second life and suddenly be out of lives. Or, you’ll be on your last life and see that you’re about to earn one in 1 minute 30 seconds. When you lose, you’ll try to play the new life that should’ve loaded and instead it now shows you’re 28 minutes to a new life. It’s a fun game, but very buggy. If it weren’t so buggy, I maybe would be willing to pay for no ads, but don’t feel like it would be worth it if I can’t play earned lives and don’t earn full lives.
Love this game, but..
Tue Oct 18 2022 Sissy7449I absolutely love this game. It’s super fun, but my problems are with the piggy bank and how much unnecessary stuff you have to use your stars on. It’s frustrating that I have to PAY for the coins that I’ve saved up and only get coins when I spin the wheel. That’s ridiculous! You don’t get ANY coins from rounds. And then then the stars?! If it’s a scene I can SKIP I shouldn’t have to use my stars on it. I use most of my stars on things I skip, over the actual decorations which is why I wanted the game. If that’s the case, since there’s two levels in one after a certain point, I should be getting double stars.
