Still a great game
I keep coming back to this one. Just downloaded it again after having not had it for a few years. It works great. Small file size, good on battery, saves progress when you close the app, and I love the dark mode color scheme. Do I get great scores? No. Do I still enjoy it when I have a minute here and there? Yes. Well worth the purchase, and I’m glad the developer has kept it updated. Thank you for a great game!

I see the tiles in my head
I see the blue move into the red. The 6s and 12s. I see them all the time.

Bring back the old music!
Who thought it was a good idea to scrap the excellent soundtrack for this game and replace it with something bland and boring? Part of the joy of playing this game was the music. Please either bring back the old music or allow the option to play it. I’m knocking off two stars for degrading the music.

Love the updated soundtrack!
I’ve been playing this game for years and I didn’t realize just how much of a change the soundtrack would do to improve the chillness of this simple, yet brilliant game.

This game should be more popular
It’s been one of my regular games for years. I never get bored of it. Easy to pick up but more difficult to advance. I even paid for it. And I hardly ever do that.

i miss the og threes music ᴖ̈
would give this game five stars as it is amazing to get lost playing especially at 3am. i’ve spent months playing threes until i pass out but recently…. the new uhhhh remix of sorts just isn’t reminiscent of the game i fell in love with,, anyways if ur gonna change the music at least add a setting for players to change the theme!! currently have to play with the music setting turned off and the original threes soundtrack playing in my music app😂

Best game on iPhone
This is the game I have been turning to for over 10 years now to pass time and relieve stress. I’ve never noticed it getting harder.
★★★★
Garbage
The only reason I ever played this game is because my stepson’s play it. You cannot develop a real strategy with this game. Their rules are just a suggestion you think that they are following them and they don’t

New update not work for iPhone 12
I enjoyed the game for years and after the update the app would not load
★★★★★
What did you do to my favorite soundtrack?!
It’s a super cute game and I love the sound design as much as the relaxing play. That said I do not love the new soundtrack!! Please add an option to play the old one.
★★★★★
Intentionally impossible after 1 good win
Calibration of how quickly to increase difficulty is awful. After *one* time getting 20k amidst a sea of 3000s, it drastically changed the way it throws new blocks in making precious strategies unusable. If you derive satisfaction from developing a strategy and refining it, and seeing ever increasing scores, it won’t work with this game. I started playing threes ages ago when it was new. It was one of my favorites. The last few times I’ve reached for it though, I have one fun game and then it’s completely frustrating.

Twitchy
Over the last month or so (since an update?), the app crashed quite frequently. Crashes are more frequent if the app is in a folder, but still happen on the Home Screen. Crash disables the retry button but user can still scroll between screens. Have to delete app and reinstall to solve the problem. Doesn’t last too long and then do it again.

Want to give more but cheated me on GC 😢
I worked hard to make my high score 86,901 but it's not showing on the GameCenter leaderboard. I suspect it's because I did it during a flight wher devices had to be in airplane mode. I assumed it would sync after we landed and I reconnected, but it has been weeks and it never did - or ever will, probably. It still shows in the app history tho! My 82,179 is in app history but doesn't show on GC either, so I'm stuck with 82,143 there. It's so hard to make progress, so this was really disappointing and cost 10k+ ranking positions. I'll never reach the top, but I'd like the achievement preserved.

No Restart Button?
This game is great, but as long as I can’t figure out how to restart a session, I can’t give it 4 stars. It’s a very basic function. And if it does exist, it’s not super obvious for dumb users like me.

Wonderful game, degraded performance
Threes is great, and has been my go-to mobile game for several years. In recent versions of iOS, it’s performance has been getting worse, most likely as a result of the (forced?) connection/sign-in to Game Center. The game will often freeze, then crash when launching. I would avoid it until the above has been fixed.

Please fix bug
The recent update is constantly rendering an annoying pop up describing each number as part of the “rewards” system every time the app is opened. I’ll update this review once it is fixed, this game is actually great.

A perfect game.
I have been playing this game every single day since I first downloaded it in sixth grade, and I am now a senior in college. The movement of the tiles allows for more strategic play and the personification of each number is elegant and engaging. The repetitive motions and satisfying color scheme is ideal for anxiety management and mindfulness practice. I play threes when I am feeling anxious, happy, excited, nervous, depressed, and it is just as satisfying each time. Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE threes, and I am genuinely grateful to the creators of this game because it has been one

Great game, but it shouldn’t ever just decide to make me loose
I shouldn’t loose just because he came decixed to give me five blues in a row when there’s one red on the board.

The only app that exists, in my opinion.
In the eleven years since I downloaded Threes I have played 25,896 games.

Back at it
I used to play a lot and I’ve rediscovered this game. Still one of the most fun games I’ve played on my phone!

Addiction denial
Been playing this for over 2 years and finally got the 6144 tile and only once. I guess I got super lucky where everything was falling into place. Connecting 2 of them seems impossible but every 5 minutes after failure I get over my anger and try again. Really need an undo button. 2048 has it damnit. Also, 2048 strategies don’t work in Threes. That had me thrown off for months.

I ❤️ Threes
Everything I wanted in a mobile game. Pure, thoughtful fun that can be played in quick sessions or for hours without ads, gimmicks, or unnecessary purchases and paywalls. The true depth of this game is staggering, I can’t even imagine how much time this took to develop. I’ll be playing this for a long time.

No Sound
I have music and sound effects turned on, but there’s no sound. I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled it, but still no sound.

Anywhere, anytime, brilliantly simple fun.
Love this simple game of numbers. Play offline it is my go to game when traveling by air. Plays exactly the same when my phone is in airplane mode. No sound needed to fully enjoy game so I can play anywhere even if I don’t have headphones. I can easily put down and pick up again. So great to play in the doctor’s/dentist’s office waiting room or on a break at work.

Fun for a minute, but ultimately pointless
This is a somewhat fun game, but my main problem is it essentially only goes as long as the game feels like letting you. Past a certain point, you literally have no control over your own gaming experience. You play as long as the game feels generous enough to give you moves to play, and that’s it. That will maybe only be a handful of moves, or maybe it’s enough to net you some really high-scoring tiles. Either way, you’re done when the game decides you’re done, and you have no choice in the matter. It might as well just play itself.

Addictive, relaxing, timeless!
On my phone, games come and go, but Threes has stuck around for the long haul. It takes about 10 seconds to figure out how the game works. Sure, you can agonize over each move and play slowly and methodically. But I also love to sometimes just swipe away, almost in a meditative state, and see how far I can get. You can play however you want! IMO this is the greatest simple puzzle game since Tetris.

Way too expensive for the features
This game is way too expensive for the features. But it’s a great time sink. Needs an undo button to at least be able to undo the last move. Also, it’s kinda weird that the blocks are rectangles and not squares.

This game has become so annoying.
This game has become so annoying. I love playing this game. BUT restarting is awful. I have to repeatedly swipe and swipe and swipe to get past saving the score and get to restart. I could care less about saving a score and I sure don’t want to sit and wait for whatever is failing to save or connect please fix!

Phantom swipes
I’m getting tired of the phantom or miss-swipes. I barely touch the screen and before I can swipe down it has swiped right (or made up some other move I never had any intention of doing). Coordination is not an aspect of gameplay and there are no options to adjust sensitivity or other settings to avoid this issue…
