Had a lot of fun with this game over quite a few years but finally what beat me were the ads which became very annoying, they come up and run a long time before the game starts, they often don't close unless you install an additional game. You have to shut down the app and then restart it, but you may be penalized by having to play black the next game. The company says that they can't control the ads, well that's a shame. There must be a way of having ads without it being completely annoying.

Ads can be annoying, but our ad frequency is lower than most free apps. Popup ad outside of games is skippable after 5-10 seconds with >>/X/Close. If >> disappears, tap where it was. Ad networks control how to skip ads + may show them in 2 or 3 parts. Please report bad ads to [email protected]. Paid version has no ads for one-off low cost.

Overwhelming ad avalanche . In response to the developer reply and do clarify: every time you do something you get a preview of a game advertisement, lasting ca 10 s then the fast forward button appears, upon pressing it moves to a simulation/mini game for another car 10 s, then you have to push another button and you are shown the game title again, and after further delay you can finally close the 'ad'. This takes an estimated 30 s total, way too long. This was not before. Only with new install

We're sorry for your ad experience. Popup ad appears when starting, ending or coming back to a game so that it doesn't disrupt play and is skippable after 5-10 seconds with fast forward/X/Close. Unfortunately ad networks control ad behaviour and may show them in 2 or 3 parts. Please report bad ads to [email protected]. Paid version has no ads

It's a good app. It all comes down to how strategic and accepting you are of the results you created for yourself. I've checked-mated all levels before (1-12), and I can tell you this with absolute certainty.... if you stop doing something you've done as a habit, you will lose your ability to perform as well in that area. Stay vigilant.
