Vita Mahjong 4+

Candy Crush Ad and others are RIDICULOUS!

This is the second time I’ve updated my Monday comments because I just sat through a three minute ad so I could 4X my rewards but it got stuck and required that I do a survey of some sort! I couldn’t get out of it so I closed the app and now have lost my rewards! Stop this nonsense or I’m definitely switching to another app. I see that I’m not the only person having trouble with Candy Crush popping up during gameplay BUT I SEE THAT THE ONLY THING THAT YOU HAVE ADDRESSED IS TO APOLOGIZE FOR HAVING ADS. YOU IGNORED THE CANDY CRUSH PROBLEM JUST YESTERDAY! No other replies to all of THESE COMPLAINTS? Why? Are you fixing it? I doubt it or you would have said so. I love this game but the fact that I have to close the app just to get out of an ad is ridiculous.
I love this game but this past week you’ve started randomly inserting Candy Crush ads IN THE MIDDLE OF MY GAMEPLAY! What’s up with that? I’m already putting up with the ads after each game but if this is going to continue I’ll play elsewhere. Please stop! It’s wrong and to be honest, I’ve never seen ads interrupt gameplay on any App Store game and I hope I don’t again because it’s easy to find another game to play. I’ll give you a five if this is addressed.

Looks like it’s goodbye

I’ve been playing for awhile… over 6300+ games now. Been enjoying it, but I think that’s over now. Today, playing with the most recent game update, I found the game adding in additional blocking tiles during the game. One of the features I was enjoying about the game was the lack of time pressure. I could play at my own pace. But it appears that has changed.

Also, why do you advertise that the game has no ads when it has tons of ads, often during a single game, and now the ads open up internet windows on its own. Also, there have been ads that have blocked the bottom line or two. I have given feedback that they are covering content, with no results. There are ads that have tiny “x” in the far upper corner very close to the edge and it doesn’t close out the window of the ad. Or, there is no way to close out the ad, and had to reboot the game in order to move on. Not to mention that you spend more time waiting for ads to end than one actually playing the game. The ads, which are mentioned in so many of these reviews, are a real problem.

There are lots of mahjong games so I might as well try them.

Deceptive

This game feels like a little red riding hood experience where an unsuspecting victim gets lured into competing to win at this game by being told how skilled you are when you progress toward a win. they used words my genius, unstoppable and other thesaurus terms yo entice you to keep competing with other player. Even when i did win by a huge lead the “prize” they give was minuscule at best and offering to get few extra buy watching a video advertiement so you’ve not won much. for all their talking on the manipulative road the end of game there is no award or reward to speak of. No recognition for job well done which clarifies it’s all a manipulation to get you to play more for nothing. why would a person spend time effort and essentially money to compete when getting nothing for it, The last straw was yesterday i opted to play and got way over 100 point lead. after being told 6/7 times that u was a “genius” the ein evaporated as soon as it was over along with my interest in playing after realizing that the game is a farce that plays on competitive emotions where there is no praise or recognition for a huge win nor a suitable prize. i highly doubt anyone has gotten this kind of lead before nor will they cause most don’t have the patience to play rhe many games in a row. the showed me the win for two seconds eith no recognition for such an incredible achievment.
