Merge Block: Star Finders Wiki

This is a great game. Well, when it works, it’s great. I have iPhone 7. Did phone update to v13.2, to stay current. At the same time Merge Block did an update. Now when I play the game, every time I get to level 15 or level 20 or even pause, an ad comes up, which is fine, but once the ad is done, there is no going back to continue my game. It goes completely black and I cannot get back into game. I thought this was a great stress reliever, now I’m not sure. Hoping it gets fixed soon. I love this game and play it every day. Let’s go back to 5 stars 🤩 Update: Incredibly, I have received a response from the developer saying it’s being looked in to and worked on. Not sure what has happened but everything is working as it should and doing what it is supposed to!👍 Thank you to Bitmango for caring enough to read reviews and try to correct problems. Back to 5 Stars!!🤩🤩

This game is ridiculously addictive to me and I find myself switching between phone and iPad just to have instant gratification during ads! I love it and have to force myself to stop so I can complete my daily tasks. Only complaint I have is when it won’t let me choose the 3-line option in lieu of the 5-line option when I don’t have enough coins for the 5-line. It doesn’t freeze it only allows the option for the 5 and then I have to purchase more coins to continue or turn machine off and on to reset.

Hi! This game is so amazing. It is something I can really have fun with. It’s not relaxing but it’s a good challenge. So before I go into things that could get better... thank you so much for this fun and addicting game! There are a few problems. One of which I noticed really quickly was the coins. The coins take too long to get. The most coins I’ve ever gotten in a round is 6. The boosts are also cost way too many coins. After a round you have the option to continue the round, but for a hundred coins or a video. I appreciate the challenge but that’s way too much. Finally the rounds cost coins to start which wouldn’t be a problem if the other things didn’t cost so much. The next thing isn’t so much criticism as it is a suggestion. One of my favorite things is the daily challenge and I can’t get enough of it. Maybe you could make another attribute to the game and make the challenges go further so you can do more than one a day!! Also, the stars are an amazing idea and they show in the screen after you fail if you have it. But it won’t let me use them after that fact. Finally, I have one more suggestion for this game. I’ve noticed that there are some things that make it too challenging so maybe add more boosts that do things like leveling out your blocks. Thank you so much for hearing me out and I truly think that if you do these things your game will go super far, sincerely, Me

Hi, I contacted you but I have a different problem now. First I don’t like how you can not really relax! And I just wanna relax form my brother! My sisters hates that our brother dose just play video games all day but we stared liking this game that he was playing so we got to download it and now we are really happy! But we stated looking how we feel and we looked at other reviews but we don’t care about those. I forgot to tell you that forgot to say “hello I want to tell you that I wanna relax so can you fix it so I can relax” or something like that! And the game that I was talking about was this :). For me people say to my reviews are stupid and it dose not mean anything but I’m 15 AND THE PERSON SAYS SHE IS 6!!!!!!!!! So if anyone tells this is stupid I will regret sayin’ that. More then her a lot of people say that and if you do you’ll have to know now. YOUR GONNA GET HACKED!!! So do you guys really like that to happen? I don’t think so. But if you said yes you are stupid. If you like to get rid of ads come see this! First up you TURN OFF WIFI!!! No second step :) Ok this is the end bye

The game is very simple and enjoyable. The ads are non-intrusive (option to view an ad to continue or gain power-ups) and can be avoided altogether. Coins for power-ups are extremely easy to obtain, meaning you shouldn’t worry about running short or having to spend real money. My only complaint is that the game is too easy once you get the hang of it. I’ve had the same game running for a week+ (it continues infinitely until you lose) and play ~1 hr a day. It would be cool if they added a hard mode where new rows appear more rapidly, or where the speed increases with your score.

This game is one of my favorites and I play it at least two or three times a day. Recently, though, the app has become super glitchy! Whenever I have to spin the wheel, after viewing the ad, the wheel just keeps spinning continuously and won’t stop on a reward. I end up having to reboot my phone to get back to my place in the game. Such a pain! Then there is the matter of the inappropriate ads. I totally agree with the review that we shouldn’t have to be subjected to misogynistic content just because the app is ad-supported. I mean, I’m not sure what age group this game is tailored to but I would assume a lot of young kids probably play this. People get content like this shoved down their throats constantly; is it really necessary to promote sexual and violent situations, even in animated form, just to support this game? It seems more thought should be given as to whom you’re choosing to align yourself with, considering who your fan base is. Thanks for listening!

I really like this game because it really gets my brain thinking. It’s like Tetris mixed with puzzle challenge. My only problem with this game is that after every ad the game basically crashes. The screen will go light grayish color and when you click on it nothing happens and if you wait awhile nothing happens. I literally have to reload my game after every ad. Since I play a lot it is really annoying to have to exit it out all together to restart it. If I wasn’t into games that challenge my brain I would probably have deleted immediately. I’ve only been playing for two maybe three days. If i could give two rating i totally would . I’m given it 3 stars because it crashes way to much. Second rating would be a 5 because despite the crashes after ever ad the game itself I really do like and if you like challenging your brain then it’s worth a try.

Love playing this game. Very addictive. Lots of ads but I expect that from a free game. The issue comes when you agree to watch a 30 second ad in exchange for a game perk, like getting rid of several rows of blocks. After you spend your time watching the ad, the game will just randomly freeze. You can’t get back into the game, you can’t end your current game and start another—nothing. The only way to unfreeze is to restart your device. In the beginning this would happen once every day or two, but lately it’s been happening at least 50-75% of the times I play. The game is essentially unplayable because of the frequency of this bug. Very sad because I love the game. An option is to just not agree to watch the ads but then there is zero chance to beat your high score, so what’s the point?

It is a very good game. My critique on the game is that it becomes “unfair” at the higher levels (after 16): the way the pieces come up and or connect to each other makes it impossible to win. Nevertheless I would give it 4 star because it is a good game. 3 stars because of too many ads and could even go down 2 stars. It feels like you get an ad for every move. Moreover, the ads are way too long: having to wait 30 sec and on occasion even 35-36 sec for every ad to be able to continue the game is delusional. I plaid for a couple of days out of curiosity but don’t have the time: 35 sec to waste for every 30 sec of game and will likely delete.

I enjoy this app a lot except for issues with the ads. The ads in the free version were very frequent and disruptive, and would sometimes pop up in the middle of a game. I decided to pay for no ads, which has helped a lot. However now I am frustrated almost every day because I will choose to watch a few ads to remove the bottom three rows when the blocks reach the top of the screen, or for extra rewards in the daily challenge. The problem is, literally almost half the time I watch the ads and it doesn’t remove the bottom three rows (it just gives me an extra few seconds with the blocks still at the top, so of course I die again). Or for the daily challenge, I will watch an ad to get the extra reward (you can get up to three rewards for each challenge) and after the ad, nothing happens - I don’t get the reward and I can’t click on another ad. I just have to close out and lose the rewards. It’s extremely frustrating. If that glitch is fixed, I would give this game 5 stars.

Personally liked where the game was at before the update. It was fun and challenging, but not impossible and frustrating like it is now. Now the times are significantly shorter making it nearly impossible to get the scores I was getting before the recent update. They give you more “tools” to use, but that means when you run out of tools, they will need to be purchased with coins that you are likely going to have to buy with real currency since you only get a small handful of coins after each game, even with a large score. Setting mindless games like this up to where getting decent scores is based off of money you put in, rather than skill, is such a turnoff and creates such a high turnover rate, which in the end just creates another failed gaming app. Nice goin.

This could have been a great game if developers had trusted the game itself to make money. They obviously didn’t because they took the sleazy route instead. 1. After you pay for no more ads, you have to watch an ad every time you win a spin on the wheel for bonus prizes, which is often enough to be annoying. Congratulations on finding a way to ruin a bonus. 2. The ads are very repetitive, including one for a cash prize game that almost all of the reviewers say is a scam. After that, I don’t trust any ads on this game, so other (potential) advertisers may want to be aware. Fun game, but don’t even bother. The ads will drive you insane. As insane as these developers must have been to sabotage themselves this way.

I really HATE most timed games...this one particularly. I play games for fun and to RELAX - NOT TO GET SO TENSED UP THAT MY STOMACH CHURNS AND I END UP GETTING ULCERS OVER IT!!! That’s what this game is doing within only a few minutes of trying to play it. Players need more time to think out their moves and this game does not allow you to do that whatsoever!! When it popped up while playing another game, it looked like it would be a lot of fun. It was great for just a short while as I love almost any kind of match games but with this one I still have no idea of what I’m supposed to be doing...especially when the blocks start sticking together and can no longer be moved around freely. A lot of good instructions are badly needed!!! I do like challenges and my IQ is somewhat above average but how you can say this would be good for a 4 yr old to play is beyond belief. I think even a 4 yr old genius would have trouble with this. So thanks but no thanks. I will leave it to the 4+ geniuses and go back to something much more fun. .

I used to love playing this game everyday. My high school was around 148 if I recall. -Ads have gotten worse. Before I even moved my screen a bit (thanks iPhone 11🙄), id get an ad and would just turn on airplane mode or be very careful. Now even pressing the PAUSE button starts up and ad. The PAUSE button. First time that happened I was so confused I forgot what I was doing once the ad stopped and pressed the game to continue by mistake and had to repeat it all over again (Yes ad and all) -Difficulty level changed/raised for everyone with no choice. No one had a choice in the level of difficulty being raised (which coincidentally means more ads just to get through and I can’t even pay my way out with the coins anymore). There is no option for an easier mode or a harder mode. -The New Power ups weren’t explained, we were FORCED to use one and not compensated. It might seem nit picky but I gaurentee you they’re not free so to waste one of ours against our will without even telling us what It does was really frustrating. Just another excuse for the developers to make money. I have always wanted power ups in the game but this was a bad way to implement it. -Overall the Experience is more confusing, frustrating, and unenjoyable. Please fix it.
