So fun
I absolutely love this game. I paid for it to go ad free. I like all of the events, the graphics and the music. It’s just a really nice game to relax too.
Developers take money but don’t fix bugs
The game is buggy and doesn’t apply rewards. Waste of time and money.
Super fun little game
I’ve been playing this game for quite a while now and I love it. It’s easy and definitely idle for the most part. I enjoyed the recent option of being able to have the critters move to the next candy on their own but I didn’t like the auto combine feature. I like to spread my critters out for maximum-ish conquer-ability on candies. I also agree with another reviewer about how difficult it is to level up the magic critters. I do think that needs to be made a bit easier or more ways to gather gems or whatever is being used in each event to level them up. Other than that, very enjoyable game and one of my favorite. Plus the chomplets are freaking adorable. I also appreciate the small pay fee to get rid of ads. That makes a HUGE difference compared to other games and bumps up the star rating significantly. Keep up the fun work guys!
You won’t even let me get
To some of these candy blocks thanks to the new crushers that you can never freakin level up to move them cuz no matter how many stupid chests you open there’s never any of them in there it’s the magic candy that we cant move due to never getting them this one is peppy
Slow moving game
I do love this game. I had to knock it down a couple stars because the only true way to get ahead in this game is to spend money. In the bonus game it can take some of your characters 2 weeks to get their way through one item. If you have the money then this game will really be enjoyable. Do love it but frustrated it takes soooo long to get through the levels.
Cutest thing ever
I love the little chomplets I just started playing yesterday and I LOVE IT the summer event is sooooooo cool I am trying to get the chomplet from the summer event I think his name is Gombo if I did not spell it correct I am just a kid I am 8 years old and all of the stuff that I said combined makes a BEST GAME EVER
Great game but unethical mechanics
I actually really love this game, but I have to warn other players about the blatant tactics the game uses to essentially “steal” your money from you. It may be legal, but it’s certainly not ethical. There are zero confirmations on anything you purchase with gems the currency you spend real life money on. So any accidental bump or misclick and hundreds of gems can be gone in an instant and they design several mechanics to make this more likely. Pop ups with the gem purchase being the big default option and a timer before you can exit. Needing to tap several times through a screen only to exit to screen that has a gem purchase in the exact location you were tapping, etc. I never complained about these issues and just dealt with it, but recently, I went to use 1 minute of a time potion, and it back tracked to ‘7 days’ and even though I didn’t have 7 days worth of time potions, it just used what I had anyway. 2 days worth of time potions on a candy with 5 mins left on it. There was no confirmation for using such a large amount on such a small amount, or using everything I had left, and frankly it shouldn’t be going backwards past 1 minute to begin with since it literally defaults to the max you can use on your current lowest active candy. The only reason is to deliberately cause mistakes like this in order to scam more money from people. So I reached out to customer service and explained what happened and was like I spent actual money on these time skips and now they are just gone, and their response was “Ohhhhh no!! That’s terrible, anyway, better luck next time.” So take that as you will. I’m still playing for now, but I’ve become a lot more disillusioned on them actually making changes that benefited players and profits equally, and see it’s still and always will be profits at the expense of players.
King Chomp
I love the game, and the new King Chomp is an interesting addition, but he keeps teleporting all my Splashes away so they get wasted on empty spaces, and it’s very frustrating.

To the Dev
The game is nice and graphic is beautiful. The king chomp is way over price for a short period of time. The king chomp should be at least a day or for the duration of the event. Or at least reward free more often. Another thing is during any event or competition, anyone that is not rank #1 can see how much point you need to move up, but if your 1st place you can not see the person behind you then how can you know where you are to compete. This game shoes have a little more automated, it too much time consuming.
I love it
This game is amazing and I love it! I just don’t like the ads.
Don’t get
Can’t even get into the game. It’s saying unexpected error everytime I try opening it.
My review so far
I loved the event gingerkeep ruins because Dracoco was my favourite magic critter Gumbo too! But I only had 2 days to get Dracoco I was terrible at it so I really hope the ginger keep ruins event will come around someday ….😞😔🥺😭
Bought ads removed
I bought the ad removal and it worked great yesterday and today I am stuck watching ads again
Need update
I have loved this game for a few years now. The problem is I can’t go any further because the castle at the end says coming soon. Will go back to 5 stars when I get the update for more levels
Love the new mini-game!
Love the new mini-game!
Repetitive towns and way too many ads
This game might be cute to play if there weren’t so many ads and if the “towns”’were varied as you progress. As it is currently it is not worth playing.
Chomptastic Fun 🍭
I’ve been playing this game for months & i definitely think it’s a favorite of mine. I love all the designs of the critters (especially the new ones). My only feedback Is a in-game button feature that allows you to toggle it on or off, to keep all your gold & critters when you unlock new towns. An please allow us to save our game-data to our Apple-ID or Facebook account so your data is kept safer. But other than that it’s a dope game !!! 🍬🍬🍬🍬
Super cute but no way to progress
Unless I’m doing something wrong, you start from scratch level after level. Play one, you’ve played them all. spend forever upgrading and merging and collecting just to start at zero again at the next level. Why can’t we take our higher level chomps with us? Or keep our candy machines at the level they’ve reached and further levels just allow us to keep growing? Maybe I was doing it wrong but this adorable game is getting deleted. It was super cute though. Good job on the design, graphics, and colors. Just felt like groundhog’s day.
Too long to progress
I really like this game. Unfortunately the further you get in the game, chomplets take multiple weeks to chomp through. Makes the game annoying to play.
Fav app game!!
Love this game a lot. It’s a blast and keeps me occupied while bored or just need a good little time passer. The art style of the chomplets are adorable and I love the new stuff that was added to the game like the unique powered up special chompers that you can collect that give you buffs to progress your game level. I’d really love to see maybe a separate little area or if we could double tap the chomplets to maybe give them treats or pets or something to feel more of a connection to the little fellas. It be funny if you could brush their teeth too cause they do be eating so many candies, don’t want them to get cavities lol! I’d love to see a rainbow special edition chomplets too perhaps? Or a gold variate as well! Just some thoughts and ideas to throw out there for future updates. So far love the game even more after redownloading it after a bit of break from it (busy life). Thank you developers for this game it really is a well crafted one with amazing art work and cute little characters!
Don’t be fooled by the game description
The description no longer describes the game unless you are willing to sink 100s into the game DAILY. 250 gems for an upgraded chomplet that won’t last past the town? Large sections of a town now blocked by special candies that you can only upgrade through MANY events or maybe you get what you actually need for 1500 gems a chest? The ad removal basically doesn’t help you, it was a complete waste of money considering cost vs what you get out of it. Ignore all these “helpful” reviews they have displayed. If you haven’t downloaded this game, RUN. There are many other things you will enjoy much more for WAY less expected cost.
Absolutely LOVE this game! But have one complaint that is costing a star.
I’m obsessed with the Chomplets! They are just adorable little monsters. I have sent a couple messages to the support team as well, and they are always very helpful and kind. My only gripe about the game is how difficult it is to obtain the gems and syrup needed to upgrade the Magic Critters and the cards obtained in the events. I mean…6000 syrup to upgrade Gumbo ONE level?! I can barely get 50 per town! If that was balanced a bit better, I would give this 5 stars in a heartbeat.
Earn a character so they can ransom it *twice* to you for gems on every level
If you don’t give the level your full attention, and/or burn time and boosts to get it, that’s gonna cost you their in game currency. 50 gems per pop. Don’t worry though, they “give” you 3 for free, out of that 50, mainly to make you look at their sales page. Seriously people, this could have been a fun little game without the mind games of the “give it to them only long enough to take it away” mechanic. If you’re thinking of spending money on those app, remember that mechanic and decide for yourself. Supporting it will not change that mechanic.
Cute but a cash grab
I like the game, but my god are they trying to wring every last penny from you. The events are fun but completely unbalanced. Currently there’s a 9 day event and I’ve been playing every day religiously, and despite that I’m not even through the second section of the last area. Unless you’re paying hundreds of dollars there’s no way to complete it. Listen, I don’t mind dropping a couple dollars here and there on a game, I paid for the no ads (totally worth it btw) and every now I don’t mind spending some money on an event but like they offer event packs for $10-30 and they give you a quick boost but only for a small area, then you’re back to being completely under leveled for that area. I haven’t spent a single dollar for this event and I’m still so far from getting anywhere near the end but I’m in first place so that just tells me no one is playing or paying. If it wasn’t for this I’d give them 5 stars easily. My other complaint is you can’t see what the boost will be for upgrading a factory. Sometimes you wait hours to have enough money to upgrade one but there are two available and one will upgrade to 2x but the other to 100x so you have to guess which one will be best and if you pick the wrong one then you’re stuck waiting another couple hours to do anything.
e
Pretty good, Why not die in a dumb way tho?
Bunch of bull
Really sad you all have to choose to make it harder for people who can’t buy the items. It was a fun game, not anymore.
Error
Started Easter factory today. Fantastic. It is telling me to update which has been done and won’t let me play. Currently in first place. Really frustrated
New update
Need to have a way to turn off King Chomp while you are actively playing. The auto merge of the creatures is very frustrating!!!!!
Love the game but
I love this game. It’s so cute and bright. However it feels like it’s still in beta because of the frequent bugs. And I wish there was a way to pick which critters you want to use in a town. 12 is wayy to many and some are just in the way.
Game keeps crashing
There seems to be a bug in the game that keeps making it crash every so often. Could you please fix this? Also, the chomplets are getting a little too pricy compared to the in-game currency intake. Other than that, I’m honestly enjoying the game.
Stop blocking stuff with the new update
You’re making it impossible for me to complete a level at 100% by adding the new magic critters candies. Now I can’t get past them because the block entire sections of the map. Pretty annoying
X2 option not working once left the app/event
Love this game however, since the new update when in the event and watch an ad for x2 profit for 3 hours as soon as you leave the event and return to the main town or even exit the app, the x2 profit resets and have to watch ad again. Contact support also is not working.
大型アプデ後から
色々な機能が増えて、効率が悪くなった。爽快感がなくなって悲しいです。
Good game until…
Very fun game and good design layout and overall good game. Until you progress too far, meaning I’m on level 64. I have to start with lvl 1 chomper against candies between lvl 11-24 which I don’t mind grinding through but then there’s a challenge to get to the next checkpoint within 24hrs which is impossible. I have single pieces of candy that take 24hrs if not more, what’s the point of the challenge? And to rub it in your face, there’s a skill card that unlocks at lvl 50 I think that lets you start with a higher lvl chomper. Guess what, I still don’t own any of those cards. At this point I rarely play the main game, I just play the side games that come out every few days, ‘cause it actually makes me feel like I’m accomplishing something. But I doubt that’ll last too long…
Cute & Creative
I don’t believe it but I think this game is going to be able to go far with Mom’s & Little Sisters who are not to Christ Like because the little Monsters are cute
Don’t buy add free
Don’t waste your money buying the add free option. They will just update the game after the fact and remove the perks you used to get.
Good but
I really enjoy this game however I find the events too hard to complete. You would have to spend a lot of real money to be able to complete it and also the events start at 12 midnight for me in the UK so I’ve already lost time trying to do the event as most people wouldn’t be asleep at this time? Doesn’t make sense. It would be nice to have the fulfilment of actually completing the events!
課金必須
楽しくプレイしていましたが、アプデ入って「魔法の生き物」が追加されたら課金しないとキャンディが壊せない、壊せないからひたすらCMみて少しずつ進めるか放置で数時間かけて1つ壊すかになる。それでも時間かかるしイベントは進めない。課金してダイヤ買えば出来るけど、無課金だとしんどいです。 無課金は客じゃないからか、改変もされずです。 キャラが可愛くて楽しいのは楽しいだけに、残念です。 箱の必要ダイヤ減らすとかイベントもう少し楽にして欲しい
Really enjoyable at first
Was a great game to pass time and everything, I was hooked to it for a little bit. But then slowly things because impossible or a single candy became full day task unless you were willing to spend money on the game to help you get by. Disappointed that it just became a money grab down the road like most games do
Ads are annoying, but…
The game has been really fun. I’m housebound and elderly and for some reason I’m enjoying these little Chompers! I play another mining game with wee goblins and it’s okay except for all the ads. The higher up in level you go the harder it is without ads. This us similar but the colorful little chompers has managed to hold my interest, so thanks for that. I can’t afford to spend money in these games so I’ll never place well in the events, but I’m still enjoying this game anyway. Thanks for giving me ways to play by allowing me to watch a few ads in order to double the factory outputs for up to a few hours! That takes the sting out a bit.
Terrible update
This was such a fun game where you could clear a level in 6 hours, and since the update this week it’s impossible to clear a single bit of candy in an hour. I bought the skip adverts thing months ago, but since the update it wants you to spend gems on critters coming out of treat boxes. It’s sucked all the fun out of it and it’s just a total slog.
Good
Love it but just put an auto play please
可愛いけどゆったりとやりたい
すごく癒されるゲーム 可愛い 悪物が制限時間を要求されているようで無視しないと寝れない。 時間に縛りなく、ゆったりとやりたい。
Fun for first 40 levels
This game is super fun at first but around level 40 the game starts to become very unbalanced. You still start each new town with a level 1 chomplet but the candies might be level 17 meaning you’re spending hours grinding just to clear a couple candies. It’s a bummer since this was my favorite game for about a month and now I’m not sure how long I’ll be able to keep playing. Hopefully the developers can introduce more balance to levels in the future.
In my Favorites
I played almost every day for a year plus and still think those Critters are ADORABLE ❣️
Won’t load
Game won’t load
very funny
very funny byt we need iCloud!
I’m frustrated
I’m at Town 50. I’ve spent a considerable amount of money buying jewels and other items. The game has gotten so difficult, with the candy values so high and so long to chomp, that it’s harder and harder to make it thru a section before time runs out. I’m faced with deciding to play on and keep paying more and more or cutting my losses and deleting the game. I’m leaning toward the latter, which is a shame because it’s a beautiful, fun game with adorable critters. I’ve spent hours playing just so I make it thru a section. But I’m running out of steam.
