There are so many things going on in the main game with different boosters that it keeps your mind really active but at the same time you can play at your leisure! The gifts, rewards, and in-game sale bundles are very generous compared to other games I play. Therefore, I play Clockmaker more than any other!

1.0 out of 5 stars seems designed not to function without in-app purchases
Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2017
Verified Purchase
I really liked this app when I first downloaded it. I played through the first couple of levels one evening until I got sleepy (this tends to happen every night and is not a reflection on any particular game or app) and if I had reviewed it at that point, it would've been am much different story. I was previously a very big fan of the Bejeweled games and this looked similar.

And then I started having problems. I have this policy of not making any in-app purchases, ever. I would rather pay for a game up front, knowing I was paying for the game, than get charged like 15x what the game is worth in in-app purchases before I realize what I've done, you know?

But there are a couple of things about this particular game that make me think it was designed to collect lots of cash from in-app purchases and not to function well without them, and that is just the type of game I will not spend any more time playing. First, if you do not complete a puzzle and you don't use any bonuses/boosters/whatever they're called, you lose a life. Once you have lost five lives (I think -- I lost count, although it is a small number), you can't play the game at all again for 24 hours without buying something. A lot of game apps seem to have this feature, but usually you get a lot farther before things start going wrong. Also with this game, you don't seem to earn any rewards at all (although it possible you earn something and the game is just really poor at communicating exactly what you get; whatever it is, if anything, isn't enough to keep you playing if your lose all your lives or run out of moves, though).

I actually used all of my lives last night repeatedly trying to beat the same (early) level of this game. I did not succeed. I am normally quite good at this type of game and I made changes to my gameplay style as I learned from each loss. But it did not matter. Every single time I played this level over the course of several days, there were at least a couple of golden tiles to break (you break these highlighted tiles by matching the jewels that sit on them; this is a feature of some but not all levels) left at the end, even though I had carefully strategized and used all my matches to break as many of the tiles as possible. You have a limited number of moves in which to break the tiles (there was a counter on this level). I suspect you can buy more moves, but I'm like, if this is an early level, how much am I going to be spending on later levels? No thanks. (By the end, I had it to where I only had ONE tile left, a couple of times in a row on this same level. So frustrating.)

The graphics are pretty and the gameplay is intuitive (relatively speaking) if you are used to this general type of game. I turned the sound and music off immediately (this is something I do with every game); that was easy to figure out. The game has never thrown me out or randomly closed on me (I am using a Kindle Fire tablet bought in August of 2017 -- I think you would get many cases of fat fingers not doing what you intended on a phone screen, unless you used a stylus).

Although the game did function at a basic level and looked pretty, the need for in-app purchases at a very early level and the lack of functionality without spending money are guiding my star rating here.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun but annoying
Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2022

The game is fun but I take away 2 stars for 2 main reasons. The first is, like all games, its all about the money. Don't play this game and plan on getting very far without spending a lot of money. But that's why these games are made, so you can't fault them for that. The main thing that annoys me about this game is getting the rewards. Its great to get them, but I would prefer to use my rewards when it is convenient for me. Frequently I will get rewards that give me unlimited lives, or power ups for a certain amount of time, but instead of being able to save them and use them when I have the time, it applies them right then, whether you have the time to benefit from them or not. So many times, I would get special power ups, right before I'm going to bed, or have to leave or something, making them a waste. If I could save them to use when I have the time, it would be far better. Or, I will get 6 hours of unlimited lives at 10pm, right before I go to sleep. That's great! The 6 hours can run out while I am sleeping. Useless!!!! For that reason, I lower the rating. If we earn rewards, let us use them when we want to.

4.0 out of 5 stars The makers are responsive, but there are still frustrations
Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2018

I'd make this three-and-a-half stars, if possible.

From almost the first time I played the game, I began sending comments and feedback to the makers. For example, I complained that there were no explanations for the various types of jewels and what they did, and soon after, they started providing graphical guides for various functions and results. I doubt I was the only one complaining, but I was pleased to see results.

It's a fun but often frustrating game, in which some levels are so hard that I've thought I would never be successful with them. And I several times blew off the game because of that, but came back to the game because I generally enjoyed playing it. And as if some logarithm was built into some levels, suddenly after losing all my lives several times over -- coming back when my lives had renewed -- I would "win" the level. But it would happen by accident and not from skill, because the win came out of nowhere. It was as if the logarithm was set to trigger a win after a certain number of failures. It still happens for some of the harder levels, and it's pretty weird.

Some of the graphics are beautiful, and some are very strange, like some of the characters. They look like the artists were told what people look like but that they'd never seen people in person to model the characters on. There are also some really tone-deaf elements to characters. The character that seems to be Native North American is hyper-idealized, being drawn as if massively strong and the perfection of manhood and the Noble Savage. Then they give him the name Kangi, which seems like something out of Kipling, who wasn't the best at political correctness. But while Kipling knew what he was doing, in this case it's like the writers know nothing about actual Native North American culture and names. I have complained about the name.

This game is an odd mix of enjoyment and puzzlement for me. I'll keep on playing it until something just goes too far for me to play it without frustration or distaste that go past my tolerance level.

Ho terminato il gioco dopo tre anni. L'ho adorato x la grafica, per il divertimento, x la varietà degli scenari proposti. A tratti l'ho trovato molto difficile, mai noioso. Non ho dovuto fare acquisti x poterlo terminare, solo po' 'di pazienza.
A un certo punto, però, ho dovuto scaricarlo in un dispositivo Android perché sul kindl e non si apriva più.
