Screwdom 9+

Have played 2 weeks. Level 200.
Moves smoothly. Lets you win enough to be fun. Ads don’t interrupt game play. Only drawbacks: reward videos (ones you can choose instead of using in-game currency) can be 2 minutes long and are multi-tap, had an issue with crashing just before winning for several days at one point. I didn’t report the crashes, but they did stop. I downloaded this for iPad first and added it to my 16 pro. The phone version is not playable—you have to see inside blocks for this game to work and your finger is in the way. So, enjoy it on your iPad, but don’t expect to have the same experience on your phone.
Actually one of few games where I consider making small purchases monthly since they make it fun and playable without forcing a purchase. Purchase option I would suggest: 99¢ for 24 hours of no internet even if it meant grayed out reward ads.

I don’t write product reviews, but feel I had to here. I’ve been playing for at least a month, at first for hours upon hours and then for only five-ish minutes as the greed the developer put into the game slowly drained the joy out of it. This game has an annoying hidden feature that forces you to lose 2/3 of the levels (always about halfway through), by giving you boxes for colored screws you can’t access whatsoever, as the same colored ones before were used and now the only ones left for this stretch of not-so-random RNG are buried behind pieces that will leave your empty screw slots full first, causing you to lose. The way around this? Watching 1-2 minute long ads for each additional boxes or small amount of tools you can use to help in a pinch. You can also earn coins to buy these things, but that process is slow goings and for how often you need the tools, it isn’t enough. That leaves players who don’t want to lose but also don’t want to watch ads to have to buy the coins, which very much isn’t worth it for how often this fake RNG occurs. Could the issue be fixed by buying the ad free pack? I doubt it. It would probably only take out the ad breaks between levels.

Simply put: If you want to waste your money on a dopamine rush/out of boredom, it’d be cheaper to beat the Waterworld arcade game from The Simpsons.

the objective is to pull screws out of a 3d puzzle and sort them into trays of three screws that match the color of the tray. you get two trays. you can add a tray for 100 coins to a max of 4 total trays. you can also place up to four screws of any color into a holding pen. you can pay to clear the pen for 80 coins. you can watch an ad instead of paying coins for a tray or clearing the pen. ads between every game; the ads can be up to 3 minutes long, and require playing in the ad sometimes, and often require you to click "done" ">>" and "X" many times before the game will close. it soon becomes impossible to pass levels without spending coins or watching ads to get your two extra trays and clear the pen. usually you have to do this 5-6 times in order to finish the game. it is literally impossible to pass levels without the trays and clearing the pen. and you have to watch ads to earn coins, because you only earn 10 when you pass a level. each day you get 3 free spins to get boosters but you have to watch an ad for each spin. you earn some boosters for passing a LOT of levels, but not enough boosters earned; not interesting enough when you get stuck. it's essentially an ad trap game.
