Mandatory intrusive ads after every single level AND every couple minutes. False advertisement: like every game these days, this is not the game from the ad. The logic table game from the ads is locked behind mandatory play of what in reality is just another copy & paste of "Crosswords". Also another game that the app title is unclear & misleading. Widget tile doesn't match what it now says above this review which is the first mention of the word "Crossword" which was also not mentioned in ads.

While I do really like this game, the reasons I'm only giving it 3 stars is because (a) there are too many ads and (b) to make things worse, half of the time, the ads won't allow me to exit out of them, even when I let them run their course. I have no choice but to exit the game and, when I go back into it, it puts me through yet another ad that MAY OR MAY NOT let me get out of it to continue my game. It's too much hassle,and I'm questioning if the game is worth the headache.

While I downloaded this game a few days ago, today was my first time playing it. I would have given it higher stars, but the ads you are forced to watch after every round is too much. I have to watch ads to get bees, double wins, and any other extras they offer. If it were not for the forced ads, I would keep this game because it is very fun and challenging. Sadly, I don't keep any games that force players to watch ads. You get rid of them, and I might consider re-downloading.
