reviews
Hopefully you're paying attention to recent reviews. Levels are too hard to pass without spending actual money. Ridiculous! I've had 30 to 60 minutes of unlimited lives and still can't pass one level. This is supposed to be a fun game... especially in our world right now. Impossible levels, shouldn't take that long and shouldn't require money.

It's heartwarming and there's no ads that ruin the experience. It's also free to play. There's match 3 to solve and other mini games. The music, design, and the concept of the game's story is very comforting and relaxing to me, almost like a nostalgic feeling you'll get while playing. I would recommend it and it's fun to play when you have spare time.

Writing another review since my last 2 are no where to be seen. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS GAME! It starts out great but the higher you get the more you will start feeling like the makers are trying to make you spend money on this game. The game will purposefully match FALLING colors to keep you from getting any of the power ups. Just Uninstalled the game as it is just frustrating to play now.

Really? Been playing this game for almost a year now. It was very nice on till everything became so hard. Using so many stars for menial things and having hard and super hard levels after like one or two easy levels? Nah. Not to talk about limited moves, this is too much. Try to make things easier for us thank you. And that ×3 "anything" why make it only during your first try giving us pressure to complete tasks...why not make it for every try and you miss it only if you fail that level.

Game started fun. Now that I've played awhile, they've changed things. The levels have gotten ridiculously hard, less moves but more to do. The special events were fun, but if you're higher level you can't finish them UNLESS you spend a LOT of $$$$$$$$$. Team members quit playing. A lot of people lose interest as the difficulty increases and you need to spend money to move to the next level or complete an event.☹️

Fun game to play if you have time to waste. I like the way the level starting boosters (like the ones from Flint) aren't all lost if you don't beat the level, they are taken away one at a time. This is nice on hard levels, because if I couldn't beat the level with all the boosters, I'm certainly not going to beat it with none! (unlike other Playrix games...)

I'm addicted to this amazing game I never get bored!!!???? I love the mini game and puzzle, gaining starts a bit hard but that's what makes it more enjoyable and I love the story line, I'm at the hall area right now can't wait to unlock more rooms so excited???????? Thank you developer for such creative game, beautiful graphics. I would love it if you show puzzled game a bit more????

This was previously a fun game that helps you destress. That was then. Now, the higher the level, the more ridiculous it gets. The moves were limited. What is more frustrating is there are more hard/super hard levels than normal ones that you can't even complete w/o spending money for the coins/power ups. 1 star reward vs 5 stars spent for simple task. I feel like this is such a rip off game and until there is an improvement, I won't play this game anymore. So I strongly won't recommmend this.

Level 103, no way to win without using all your resources up and I've done that.Now I'll have to play 103 forever because I've been doing that. I came close many times, but no resources left to win without real money spent. If I could give minus stars I would. Without spending real money you can't win after a point in the game. You will find out when you get to it.

Love this game but..... I've been playing for roughly 2 years and I always purchase the golden ticket but this season the spooky season I've noticed the prizes are not as good as b4 when you purchased the ticket in other seasons there was a 30 min power of each power up now this has disappeared?? If I had noticed this b4 purchase I would have not bought the ticket!! Why did you change the format?

I think I enjoy the game, but when the super hard levels are every third or fourth round, it's extremely frustrating to miss out on game events altogether because you can't pass a level. I wish there was a constant lives counter visible on all screens. Great graphics and visual appeal help keep me interested, but usually, the game concept can be more challenging than fun.

I used to love playing this game everyday. Once I was on the higher levels they enter you in this "Championship" levels which I don't mind they are just too difficult to beat so I miss out on the season tickets that I've purchased with my own money and I miss out on any other event for decorations and stuff,so what's the point in playing,I just wait until the stupid Championship is over to play again. I hate it when games become so popular they begin to cheat the players that made them popular.

It has become much more grindy than other playrix games. I'm at 1500~ and it costs 5 stars to do anything. The new combination levels are atrocious. I.E. combine bombs and rockets 5 times in a poorly designed level with a small random chance of getting the power up directly next to the other power up all while only have a highly limited amount of turns. It's too frustrating.

Its a fun game and have enjoyed it but the higher you get the more super hard levels you have. For the special events when you are higher up its impossible to complete them without spending a fortune. To only get 50 candies for 1 level in Halloween but need over 1000 for each decoration is crazy. I dont mind buying coins sometimes but I think it would cost at least £30 to get close to completing as every 2nd or 3rd level is super hard.

This game is awesome. I love the levels and I love redoing all the stuff around the mansion. I just wish you could get coins easier. If you're stuck on a level, you either have to wait until a new reward pops up or spend money for just a few coins. It shouldn't cost so many coins to get a disco ball or bomb. They should just make them cost a little less. Not everyone can afford to spend so much. And that makes us not able to play the game for several hours sometimes while waiting for rewards.

The game used to be fun. The graphics are good. The levels are getting harder, spending lots of time, boosters and coins and still not being able to pass them. This makes the game frustrating. The number of stars in order to make 1 change increased. From a fun game, started to become a frustrating game ????

Been playing this game for about a year now and have been enjoying it immensely. While, yes, it does have some extremely difficult levels, it is supposed to get harder as you reach more levels. For me, I allow myself a specific amount of entertainment money a month and spend some on this game. They have to pay their programmers too! Keep up the fun!!

Love the games, one question. Why do some complain about levels becoming harder as you progress? I find that to be a good thing, you need to earn the rewards. I wouldn't want the levels to be easy that would make the game boring. I feel the game can be to easy at some points. I love the challenge and find it more rewarding when I do beat the level. I'm on 3360 and loving each and every board, I don't like when the games are to easy. We need to earn the rewards not have them giving to us.

It would be more fun if it weren't for how often these hard levels come up. They aren't that hard, it's just they don't give you any moves to do the level. So the game becomes farming that level for a few days until you get the matches just right then beat 4 levels and start the hard level process all over again.

I've been playing this game for years and it's really good but lately the rewarding system seems to be f*d up. For example the current event for halloween allows you to redecorate the garden area but every level only gives you around 50 candies and half of the decorations requires more than 1000 candies to get. I still play the game but I take long breaks since the rewards doesn't justify the time I waste on grinding for candies

I greatly enjoy the story line... Being a part of the story it's great. Thank you too the creators of this game! However, I have problems with the game kicking me off and having to wait for it to reload. The advertising for this game, as well as several others, is misleading as it is a match 3 type game not solve this puzzle type game.

Level 69 is just way too hard. You have boxes to break, oranges to collect, and 50 pieces of grass to grow and only 12 moves to make all 3 happen. I think this level for me would be passable if they would just remove the boxes and stop making things too difficult. If they can do that, I would be happy to pass the level and remodel the guy's home. But if they don't remove the boxes, then I quit.
noname65360, the 06/11/2021
________________________________________________
At the end of each level it is a lot of flashes. Say hello to epilepsy:( The broke all enjoy if game. To much levels where you will need one more move. I was lucky to got enough resources when they didn't make game so hard and didn't steal a lot of movements from level. To finish event now you will need to make a lot of levels. That wasn't same in the past. And they didn't make a normal couple from Katrina and Austin toll 7721 level. So it is not a best game to spent time for storytelling.

The game was fun to play for the past two years.. But now it is becoming a nightmare to play it. If it is not super hard levels it is the technical issues that are annoying.. The thing with the champion tournament I will appreciate it if the levels change every week.. I cannot be on level 7000 and some but still get the same levels... I don't mind playing the same levels but can they please not repeat more than 2 times because it get boring especially if you get stuck on a level for more than 2

I have been playing this game a long time and adore it, it is the perfect fill for gaps in the day that you just want to exercise your mind. However the past week my buttons on screen have vanished and I need help. This is the only way I know how to get help, but I cant show the pictures here. I can see the house, but play button, help, move counter in-game, and all other buttons are just gone except for map. Please help!
noname586962, the 06/11/2021

The game is ok. One thing i don't like is when i am trying to retry a level and i pops up asking if i want to use color bombs and i don't have any i miss and hit the button to use them thinking its the retry button and it takes my coins to purchase the color bombs. It should ask if you are sure you want to purchase before taking the coins. Think i will stop playing as much as i do because of this it has happened more than once.

Now that I have been playing for a while (okay, long while) I thought I would update my opinion on Homescapes. I still enjoy the game! I was unhappy because the ads for this game show you playing a game of Austin doing tasks u0026 the game is nothing like that. Other people had the same complaint so they added those little cartoon challenges. I'm on level 3353 u0026 I've never spent a penny of real money,you just need to be patient. Join a group that "helps" to get free lifes and have fun!

Just don't. It's clearly pay to win that's not pay to win. After 6000+ levels I can say it's become a slot machine esque game where if you don't pay you may be stuck for a week on one level. Just don't, the first 1500 levels are pretty fun but you end up hooked compelled to finish and it just stops being fun.

This is absolutely the worst game you can possibly download they claim it's " free to play" yeah most games are and " all levels are beatable" yeah it depends on how much you lose first. You will lose when you get so much time of free lives. Hell I spent two dollars on one level and still lost. They control everything you do and they know how you will play. You only win when they decide it's time. There leagues are ghost towns nobody wants to play and you know what? I am done for a few weeks.

If you have problems spending money on games DO NOT DOWNLOAD. Fun game but can easily be a money pit if you have problems with that type of stuff. So the most you get for beating a level is 300, very rare and has to be a challenge level. On average 65-150 depending on difficulty. Then if you ever fail a mission but are close to finishing it, it will cost 900 coins for 5 moves on some boards you have less than 10 moves. Over 20 minutes for a life and can request every 2+hrs.

It was very good at first. But now I'm stuck at level 67 for days. They are not offering a way to get boosters without purchasing it. Its better if they can offer us to watch ads to claim boosters. Now the only option I have is to uninstall this since I don't have money to purchase boosters.

It is a great game, but when you run out of levels to play- you get into some sort of championship competition and don't earn any stars. If they have levels for us to play for that tournament, then we should be able to earn stars for the levels we pass. I'm currently on level 7713 and am trying to level out my playing time between levels so I don't end up in the "no earning stars" levels. I cannot count how many levels I have passed that I could have earned stars when it was just a "tournament"

Used to play this years ago, redownloaded for fun because Austin is a sweetheart! its majorly biased for paytoplay, game triples in difficulty when events are on which are always! the tactics of the game make you lose over and over again while hammering you with message to "ONLY pay 4.99 for an extra 3 base lives 8hr free play and tons of power ups"...it's absolutely disgusting! I've had atleast 3 hours free play in past week and havent shifted a lvl but bet if i bought it I'd pass! Fix your BS

I really love this game, been playing it since college. But what I hate is when your level is high, the stars you needed to get a task done also increases. I just need to place a coat tree and it requires me 4 stars. Seriously. Because of that it gets boring. You have to play for so long just to get a task done. Not worth it. If only you can make the star needed to finish a task reasonable.
noname433349, the 06/11/2021
________________________________________________
At level 5700+, gonna uninstall. Be prepared. You will need 5+ stars to complete tasks. Curtains 5 stars, rug 6 stars, chair 6 stars. Paving front steps 2/2 12 stars. The higher the level, it gets more ridiculous. Before was just 2 to 3 stars. Don't waste your time on this knowing that the higher you get up there, the more stars are needed for simple tasks.
noname100922, the 06/11/2021

Why do the levels have to be so hard. You can spend a week on one level ant the only way to pass it is buying power ups.. The amount of stars needed to do basic tasks are frustrating Games are supposed to be fun.. not cost you money and make you throw your phone across the room in frustration...
noname887407, the 06/11/2021

One may get addicted to this game, it's fun, challenging and engaging. However, some of the levels are too too difficult to overcome. Sometimes I get stuck to a single level for 2 to 3 days. It's really really frustrating and eventually I end up using more and more coins to overcome a difficult level. So, all in all it's fun, but some of the levels can be made a little bit less difficult. I am not asking to make the levels easy, but to make them 'less difficult'.
noname520104, the 06/11/2021
________________________________________________
I like it but I hate it. Sometimes the levels are impossible to beat. The only way to pass them is due to using all your power ups and a little luck. I don't want it to be super easy but some days I just play it once or twice and give up. It would be nice if the extras (tickets, locusts, what have you) were a little more plentiful, then I might stand a chance of getting the special things done. I think I have only managed to get one saved special area and I have been playing daily for a year. Y

Great game if u like playing the same level for weeks Just pure greed at this point. Days or weeks to complete a level with barely any moves provided forcing you to spend real money. Multiple stars to hang a planter or to call someone? Really. I spent my last money on this game and might play casually every now and then but that's it. Too bad was a decent game.
noname856997, the 06/11/2021

Love the game, just not the amount of stars needed when you higher than level 5000. Plus, having to replay the same level during events is asf. Stop trying so hard to make money off this game, you make enough money with each download. Why are power ups disappearing on levels, you can clearly see you're about to get a power ups and than poof it's gone. I'm seriously about to find another game that's not a rip off. Furthermore I really don't like to stress about a game that's was a destresser.
