Addictive, but rigged

Like many micro transaction games, this one starts out fun, but you quickly realize the game is rigged against you in an effort to funnel you towards the store. There is no significant strategy or skill involved in the game, as most of it is entirely random, from the color of the blocks that fall, to the direction of power ups that you create (at least three fourths of the time they will be oriented the wrong way when they appear). In most cases, winning is determined by the RNG, meaning most boards can be beaten if you just play them enough times. This is fine when you are playing with infinite lives, but when restricted to five, you either pay for more or you quit for an hour or two while your lives regenerate. Many times the game will let you maddeningly get down to one or two moves before finally dropping the pieces you need, encouraging you to pay to get five more moves with which to finish. In short, never trust a micro transaction game based on randomization; it will only end in frustration.
