This version of tangled ropes is very satisfying to play. There is actually a professionally designed game structure, so it feels like you are progressing up the levels. This one is the Best of the 15 rope games I tried. There are some ads at appropriate places. But not after each game. You aren’t constantly hit with ad after ad. Some game levels are hard, but not ridiculously hard so that you have to buy your way a win. This game is based on a timer, but the times are reasonable enough so that if you play carefully, you can win. No tricks, not just a money grab.

I downloaded this game based on an ad that let me try it out. The ad was a circle of ropes to be untangled and seemed to present a brain challenge that was both engaging and a bit challenging. However, I have yet to discover that same level of challenge in the actual game. Additionally, the puzzles in the game are not tangled in a fixed circle but rather on large square boards. I’m on level 60 and have not struggled yet. The game has all sorts of power ups that I have not yet needed to use. I was gifted some scissors in an earlier level that automatically cuts a rope at the start of each level and while this could be a nice feature, it takes what little challenge this game presents and makes it even easier 😕. There’s no option to shut it off and so I have to intentionally lose a level to make it stop. I love the idea of this game but it seems to be designed for kids based on the level of difficulty. Even the levels marked as “super hard” are easily beaten within 30 seconds. The graphics are beautiful and the game runs smoothly. There are ads but they are not intrusive and only play every few levels. I was really hoping this would be a fun brain puzzle game forcing me to flex my mind and think but it’s not. I’ll give it a few more levels just to see if the challenge increases but if not, I’m already bored and will likely quit playing.

while the game itself is free to play, you’re forced to watch ads unless you purchase the no ads feature. Plus the amount of time they give you on the higher levels and due to the difficulty of the levels, there is no way you can complete these levels without the special helps. This forces you, if you want to be successful in the game to have to purchase the special items like the scissors to cut a rope. I refuse to pay more money on a game other than the no ads and now I’ve gone as high as I can, reach the level that was too difficult to try to finish in the time given, and now I’ve lost all the special effects that I gained by having a winning streak, unless I purchased one of their packs or more coins or special items and things like that. I hate games that appear to be free but in the end, you really need to spend money in order to be successful. Hence, why I gave a two star review. If the game wasn’t as difficult as it is, I would’ve given a five star review actually play the game without to spend money. I would not recommend this game to anyone who is a free to play player and you don’t want or can spend the money on it.
