User Reviews for Woodoku - Wood Block Puzzles

Ruined by advert greed, used to be decent

This game used to be fun and relaxing - if frustrating because you cannot turn items and it will trip you up gradually at different levels by not giving you items you need but instead multiple items you cannot place. But at least it was ad banners and very limited ads. Now, coming back to it while healing from a medical procedure … I rediscovered woodoku. The stupid & very loud not muted (?!) repetitive animated ads at every level completion and fail are just too much. I had lost all my progress and scores, but that did not bother me, I played a few regular games. Ad is super disruptive, cutting in before you knew what was wrong or even your score. Today it offered me the challenge journey. OK, let me relax with that … No, I am just like strapped to a screen and forced to view and click every 20-30 secs on these loud animated ads for games I have no interest in. None. Just ridiculous to have in game ad banners + force that many popups for games that most people either have or just are not interested in … Literally ruined by greed. People play puzzles to relax and heal. Not to get stressed out by unskippable ads you have to sit through and interact with to get rid of them. Back to my solitaire game I go. Bye.

Even with the ads, it’s fun, strategic, and good for the mind.

I’ve been playing this since December last year to now continuing, and even though it has its ads it has fun themes, great strategies for each puzzle, and fun badges to earn, as well as for fun daily challenges to earn gems. This is a puzzle game I highly recommend because it hasn’t ever asked me for money nor has it ever made me bored. Here are more examples of why I suggest this from my experience playing this for almost a year now. First of all, The ads are only 5-30 seconds long. That’s honestly not bad in my opinion or experience because I’ve seen games have ads have 1 minute ads or even a 2 minute ads before. But thankfully this game has blessed me as a player with short ads that have never given anything bad to my phone such as a virus or such. Secondly, the game is free. It’s never asked me for money to get rid of ads, to help with hints, or anything in that category. This game makes me feel interested and ready for a challenge every day I play. These are the main examples of why I suggest this to anyone who plays puzzles. Developers, if you see this I congratulate you because as a player who has Autism you have pleased me with a great game that has great challenges! I’d like to hear from you soon. So yes this is a game I highly recommend!

Great Game

I love this game. Initially, I was going to write that I had zero complaints until I read some other reviews and I agree with what someone else mentioned: that it would be nice to know where I stand. Is my score good or bad? I would not mind if there was just a chart where I could judge myself but better yet, would be knowing where I compare to others. And better yet it would be nice to know where I compare to others and a breakdown of age groups (or some other breakdown: education level? Etc.) I did also like the idea of being able to collect the tokens and trade them in for something. As for the pieces not being random as some say, I have not run into that issue, they appear random to me. And what incentive for the developer is it to not have random pieces? I do not see any reason. Overall, it is an addictive game and I really enjoy playing. The ads are short so they really are not a hassle. Thank you!

Does this game have an unfair edge?!

Hi. Sorry if this has already been brought up before. Although I very much enjoy this game and play it frequently, I can’t help but feeling that, as currently designed, the app has a distinct and unfair advantage over its players, by the simple fact that each new set of pieces is generated after the previous one has been placed by the gamer. As the game progresses, it will always come to a point in which it should be trivial for the algorithm to come up with a set of figures that are impossible to accommodate, thereby ensuring you lose. It seems to me that it would be better if each new set was created and displayed onscreen after the first two of the previous one have been placed, but before the last one is. This way, the player can’t benefit unfairly from viewing the next set in advance when placing the first two, but neither could the game gain an advantage, not knowing how the last piece will be placed on the board. This would also add an element of skill in deciding how to place it in order to maximize its effectiveness, considering what pieces will follow. I hope this suggestion is clear enough.

Love the app, but game keeps freezing

This is an addictive app. I have different versions. I like the brain challenge, but it is so annoying when the game freezes for 5-10 seconds and I can not move any of the pieces. Often I have to restart the game. I’ve tried closing and reloading, doing a forced shutdown of the iPad, but nothing helps. What causes it to freeze when it’s time to move a piece? Also, the number and frequency of ads is so annoying! And some games like Brains n Balls don’t have a “silent” button, and so can’t play this in bed or anywhere while waiting! Why not offer a paid version w/out ads? Let us buy it once, not a monthly charge. Also, I HATE all the FAT ads! They are not true and there is no pill that can create those results. PLEASE eliminate these ads!

Not random and too many long ads

There is a consistant lack of smaller pieces provided the longer you play, as other reviewers have stated. It means you have to replay Journey games over and over and over to finally complete them. Furthermore, the number of ad screens has increased from 2 to as many as 11 or 12 since you have to touch the super tiny ‘x’ to get back to the game. The difficult button means you switch back and forth between the ad and the download screen over and over and over until you hit the ‘x’ just right. Far too many interruptions for this game to be fun. Also, there is no way to silence the ads unless you turn the sound off on your phone. You can silence the game sounds in the app but not the ads. That means no playing in bed, at work, or in public (ie. waiting in line or in s waiting room) without turning all media and phone sounds completely off. This causes all sorts of problems when opening the game and forgetting to toggle all phone sounds, alarms, audiobooks, etc off before starting to play. And there are not enough days allowed to finish the journey activity. 5 days to get through 45 levels, each of which have ten or more ad pages after each fail and between levels. All in all, the game is fun even though the parts dropping in to be played are far from random and the ads take up so much time and are splittingly loud. Exceptionally fristrating.

Doesn’t seem random

It’s a very addicting game, but also frustrating. I agree with the last reviewer totally. As the game progresses, it refuses to give you even one shape you need to keep going. It boxes you in. As the game progresses and the space gets tight, it never gives you the small shapes you need to clear an area to keep going. I can always tell when I’m screwed. Once I get to about 700 points it starts giving me the opposite of what I need and starts giving me 4 or 5 block diagonal shapes etc. I have never started a fresh game and been given a diagonal shape. If it were truly random I assume I’d get a variety of shapes throughout the game.I also notice anytime I need an L shape or a single block deep into the game I never get those. It’ll give me a backwards L that I can’t use over and over. If you play it enough you’ll notice right away.

Has potential to be amazing

I love this game, but there’s one thing that really irks me: as someone who doesn’t play every day or will play for a few days straight then not again for a week or so- the “journeys” are either too short or should be on an individual timeline for each person. I understand the creators are trying to create incentive to play daily but that will never happen for some people and I would like to come back to the game and not start at the bottom level every few days. Playing to 75 points is easy and boring and not what I want to be doing every week just cuz I can’t log on enough to complete each journey in a timely manner. And If they’re gonna keep it how it is can there be other options for levels with the extra puzzle elements that I can work on over time with no time constraint? Besides just racking up points in classic game play? I hope that makes sense and I hope they try to accommodate this… it’s doubtful but I really like the concept of this game I just get bored of it but I don’t want to be bored of it.

Way too many levels

I like this game at first, but when I saw there there are 40 levels and you only have 6 days (or so) to get as many awards as possible, I stopped playing as much. Maybe I want easier games, but there are so many games to play that I am not going to spend that much time doing the same thing over and over. Also…The one big annoying issue I have with any game is that I like to play in silence but the ads are super loud and some even play through the speaker even though I silenced my phone!!!!! This is a terrible situation when you are trying to be discreet! It’s bad enough I have to be tortured with repetitive ads for other games but to make it super loud makes me want to throw my phone. Ads should be silent because if you do like the sounds then you tend to look at your phone when the sounds stop, so the ads have the opposite affect if they are so loud and disruptive that you are trying to get rid of them the fastest way possible.

Gets Frustrating

This game is super fun and simple. I play it when I just need something casual. I like that there are now more levels in the events since those are the only games I really play. However, the games are not fair. If the pieces were random, you’d occasionally get a single block or a double block throughout the game. You only get those early on when you hardly need them and are stuck with the hardest shapes as the game progresses. I am currently stuck on level 81 of the current event. I’ve played it at least 60-70 times (maybe more!) and I’m now thoroughly convinced the level is nearly unbeatable. You either have to get super lucky or be clairvoyant and know what blocks you’re going to get next. What’s the point of a game that’s set up to make you fail???? This app should be 4 stars (1 star deduction for ads and not being able to remove them), but I’m giving it 2 because it’s purposefully impossible the play.
