User Reviews for Zen Match - Relaxing Puzzle

Fun and all but . . .

I love this game, and it is fun and relaxing, but I have a few problems. 1. The fact that it is nearly impossible to pass the hard levels. If you are anything like me, you will think “oh those people just aren’t trying” no really it’s hard. You need a gazillion coins to pass the levels. 2. The daily puzzle is how I get gold, but it means I have to watch a gazillion adds to get enough gold to fail a level again 🙄 3. Just today, I went in, got a few coins, 10 to be exact, cause that’s how much a shuffle cost, only to find out that the price on everything had been raised. Shuffles were now 15 coins, and redos 30. Yet it still only gives you 10 coins per level. If you wanna raise the prices, you have to raise the salary! 4. I want to play the thing where you clear the huge board, that doesn’t exist. In all, 3 stars, cause it’s fun and all, but I want those fixed.Actually, nvm, they lowered the prices, but still, it’s hard, and I forgot to mention the thing where you match mystery tiles. It gets as far as a shuffle and a redo, but then you have to pay for the chest, and I’m not allowed to spend money on games even if I wanted to, but if I don’t buy the chest, then I can’t get anything else, so please fix that

Don’t get invested!

I really enjoyed this game until about level 170. At this point, like many other games with the same format of passing levels to accomplish a goal (word villas, project make over, etc.), it becomes impossible to pass levels without many power ups which require some kind of coins which cost real money to obtain (for the most part). They do not have any kind of daily rewards that are given. They have competitions where you can win stuff, but this requires passing levels which brings you back to needing coins and having to spend money. I have been stuck on level 178 for 4 days now and have used roughly 30 or so lives. I had coins and power ups in the beginning but used them all on this level and do not want to spend anymore money on the game to get more. Especially after having paid to remove ads which was $6.99 (higher than I’ve seen for any other game). Heck, I could buy more or less the same game on pc for that price and that would be the FULL game. I’m not sure why you can’t just buy phone games this way. I understand they are often being updated, but many games that you buy full version of still update as well, hints expansion packs. Phone games truly are money traps. I really need to stop hoping differently and finding myself disappointed.

Not a fair game.

A really fun game at first. Can’t remember what level I deleted the game on but way over the 100th level. At first I enjoyed playing the game I didn’t make any app purchases at first. I simply waited until the live refilled which would take up to 30 minutes a life. I didn’t want to purchase to remove ads so I would exit app refresh and enter game again so I didn’t have to watch the ads. I noticed that once I completed this move the app would remove one of my life’s. I ignored it however I began to purchase coins for life’s. You need 400 coins to replenish 5 life’s. That’s an absurd amount noting the cheapest bundles only gives you about 175 or 200 coins. Once I started making purchases I noticed that the game became more difficult and with out the advantage of the help at bottom of screen shuffle 10 coins, back move 20 coins and remove 3 cards 60 coins, which you have to pay for in coins. This is expensive in coins. So I decided not to spend money on coins anymore which made it more difficult to pass levels. I had my final straw at losing a game and going to the are you sure you want to give up picture on your screen and seeing I had 15 seconds until my next life. So I exit that game just to get to the Home Screen and the app took my only life after the clock ended in 5 seconds. I don’t know if it was a glitch but I’m done. I deleted the app this game is not fun once you start making money purchases. It’s money trap.

Could be awesome

This simple little game has the potential to be so fun. The tile matching is addictively fun. HOWEVER, this game is run by the greediest company. You get five lives, which is pretty standard, and the game includes ads between levels, which is also pretty standard. What is terrible is that the ads will freeze my iPad and then when I have to close out and restart the app, it takes my life. How is that fair? Also, I just noticed that they raised the price of everything in the app by 50%, when it was already too high in my opinion. It used to be 60 coins to remove 3 tiles and now it cost 90 coins. That’s a 50% increase on fake money! Are you trying to run all your players away? I refuse to spend money on little games like this, so I gladly sit through the ads (the ones that don’t freeze everything and cost me a life) which gives the dev company money. Quit being so greedy.You get 10 coins for completing a level. The cheapest “help item” you can purchase used to cost 10 coins and now you can’t even afford it after completing a level. And the sad part is, certain levels are unbeatable without a help item. So it’s like they are trying to bleed us dry so that we have to spend real money to play. Just know what you’re getting into before downloading!

Fun but needs improvement

The game has started freezing like crazy. The pop-ups have been freezing the screen and there are so many pop-ups that it’s almost impossible to get to the actual gameplay. I also don’t like the new look for the power ups, not that it’s important. This game has some incredibly fun levels. Some levels are so fun to me personally that I wish I could just play them over and over again (the levels with lots of tiles and a big “map,” I’m not really sure what to call it). However, some levels are so frustrating and boring that I don’t want to play anymore. Coincidentally, these just so happen to also be the levels that you get stuck on for days at a time (fewer tiles, smaller “map”). I have wasted 600 coins trying to get through a small, frustrating level on several occasions, just to still fail it and have to spend days trying to gain enough coins back up to try again. I’m not really sure what improvement can be made to fix this specific issue, but I hope you can think of something. It’s a shame to have to play the same boring level over and over because you can’t get past it and you wasted all your coins trying to get through it on your last life. It also is sad to blow through all your lives in 3 minutes because the level is so small and so impossible that you lose almost immediately.

Still has potential

This game is very fun and easy to get hooked on at first. But like many of the other reviews have said, you will eventually reach an impossibly-designed level where you can either take a chance and run through your five lives, or you’ll have to pay for extra coins. I don’t even mind taking the risk, but it does take an unusually long time for lives in this game to replenish, and it doesn’t offer any way to earn extra lives aside from mKing a purchase. Most other games have shorter replenish periods AND offer you the chance to watch ads to get more lives; I don’t get why this one doesn’t. As far as the coins go, I agree with others who think it is clear they want you to spend money. They’ve added several new ways to get boosts and extra coins since I started playing but each is a dead-end for those of us on higher levels. For example, you can now earn coins for decorating a room. Cool! Except A.) we can’t retroactively get all the coins we would have earned from rooms we already decorated, and B.) you have to spend lotuses to decorate each element of the room, but you only earn lotuses when you beat a level. So you start running out of lotuses trying to get more coins to beat an impossible level, then you run out of coins too because the level is impossible. It’s just too difficult for no reason after a point.

Worst Customer Service and Tech Support!!

This game is not relaxing! It offers promotions, such as referring a friend, but then does not honor the reward. When I first started the game, I referred four friends,. The reward didn’t load. I emailed customer service and they did not want to give me the hundred coins I earned per new player. They grudgingly said that they would offer me 300 coins as a courtesy. What courtesy? I recruited four new players to your stupid game! I was dumb enough to try it again, referred another four players, and two of them signed up to play. I told the friend that Zen Match has a practice of cheating its players out of finders bonuses, so to please let me know when they load the game and start playing. Once confirmed with them, I asked for my bonus, and once again Zen Match, denied me. They said that “tech support” (in quote marks because it’s clearly a joke) doesn’t show me referring anyone to the game using my link. I sent back proof, both the invitation screenshots and screenshots of players at level 30 and level 100 of the game, respectively. They are not responding to my emails. I’ve emailed six or seven times with proof, no response. They are cheaters with hideous customer service who do not honor their agreements. This is not relaxing! What it is is pathetic. 100 coins is barely enough to get through a level, but at this point: it’s on! I want what I earned. Don’t spend your time recruiting new players!

Mechanically wrong, need to pay to play

I loved wasting time on this app, I’m giving it two stars because I really did spend a lot of time playing it. If you don’t buy the no ads there are WAY too many ads. One before you start a level, one after you finish a level, one if you have to restart a level. On top of that after the first 50 levels or so the levels start getting really challenging. I’m currently on level 145 and I’ve been stuck on this level for over a month now. I’ve completed every single daily level so now there is literally nothing for me to do on the app besides try and fail again and again at the same level. Which is frustrating to say the least.I’d love to see some new levels introduced into the game. Maybe a different play mode, one that isn’t level based and is just matching that the players can do when we’ve done everything else and are soft locked. It would also be amazing to see a difficulty rework. There are people who make it past this level(145) but they can’t do it without spending coins on undoes, a mix up, or a continue playing power up. That should never be the case for games like this and I struggle daily wondering if it’s worth me keeping the game around because of simple mechanics like this.

Fun at start, but impossible at higher levels

TL/DR: Game is fun at lower levels, but the upper ones are in winnable and a waste of time playing. Lazy programming with too many tiles so matching 3 on some tries is impossible in the first moves. Find a game where success is at least possible without help. This game was fun for about the first 2000 levels. At the beginning, it is fairly easy but builds quickly. Then at somewhere between level 2000 to 2109, the puzzles are impossible. There is no combination of times you can choose that will allow to win unless you use one or more bonus “cheat” tiles. It just gets frustrating to go through 5 tries at a level in less than 10 minutes only to have to wait 2.5 hours to try again. Also, the amount to play on goes up from 60 to 90 coins which makes it even harder to keep playing. It’s to the point where it’s not worth the time and ads to play anymore. In addition, the ads for this game are misleading in that the puzzle they show in the ad is never available. The “tournament” and other “competitions” in the game are jokes because they have a time limit, but it takes days of play to get through one level let alone the multiple needed to succeed at the tournament. Too many extras that are just not needed. Make the upper levels challenging but winnable with out needing to use a scramble or the extra tile spaces rather than being lazy at putting random tiles of too many varieties in the puzzle.

I love this game I just want one thing

I would really love if they would let me redesign the rooms I’ve done in the collection sections! I have a lot and sometimes I don’t have many blue things and they get higher in the amount you need per item at the level I’m at. HOWEVER I LOVE THIS GAME. I have made it to level 895. I don’t have money to spend on mobile games I spent 5 dollars when I first downloaded it and since the en just save coins when I’m on a winning streak. I see people saying they’re stuck and just quit, but I have been stuck for a few days and just took a break. Come back to it when it feels relaxing again. You’re not meant to play the game forever you’re supposed to chill and play and if you’re losing stop for a while. I wish the no ad’s wasn’t $6 I’d totally buy it if it was less or went on sale but I’ll just watch the ads at that point. It has helped when I’m feeling anxious and need a distraction sometimes. I wish I could design the rooms for less of the flowers it takes I wish it stayed at 2. It’s harder to beat levels this high and I really like the décor part of the game and I definitely have not been able to enjoy it as much as I would like to and was able to when I first played.
