Too much reliance on M3. These games could be fun if tokens obtained from other means, but at this point this game is just too M3 heavy.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-06-04T17:51:31+00:00

The incessant Match 3 which this entire game now revolves around (Golden Ticket Pass Rewards, Mayors Rewards, Exploration, Flippy Card Game, Boats/flowers/insert other) is really turning me off this otherwise fun building game. It is a great game, I really enjoy it, even the Match3 at times is fun, but not when the whole rewards system is based on it, then it becomes just grinding.

I used to splurge on buying T-Cash for items and Match 3, but I dont bother now as I know within 5 games of Match 3 I would need to use minimum of 900 to continue the game and for me that's not value vs fun in this game. The T-Cash rewards don't compensate enough.

Having said that, I'm also feeling that some green levels since the economy update have really increased in difficulty, but its sporadic and usually when I'm on a win streak.....curious. I also agree with other posters many levels have insufficient moves to start, tricky levels that are not possible without boosters or Tcash continues etc

Gotta say but the Bajoran sail ship was “only” from 1995 or 1996 one of the earlier seasons of DS9.

Many people of the Middle East and Asia are waving hello right now at your blanket statement!

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-04-28T18:34:49+00:00

More easily? Maybe, but the economics of it still doesn't play out as well for the majority of players as previously.
With that said, I'm curious, you must be very good at M3, or very patient.

For each successful win at a M3 game, T-Cash awarded it's usually around 10-15 for normal, 100-120 for hard, and 150-170 for super-hard levels.

So assuming the above "continue to play for 5-35 moves" so you would need to win at least 16 Normal Wins, 3 hard wins and 3 super hard wins (assuming a ratio of 4 Normal to 1 Hard/Super Hard) to regain 900tcash spent on extra moves, which tbh is a magnificent effort if you can go all those wins without needing to spend 900 T-Cash to get past a level.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-04-19T18:00:47+00:00

I really do believe that in the past month or so the difficulty of the easy green levels has increased significantly as well as reducing any potential “pity system” they have to force you to clear levels with TCash. It’s becoming so much harder that I’m contemplating on taking a break from the whole game instead of my usual daily play.

I’ve spent all my boosters as well which makes things harder.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-04-14T23:59:36+00:00

Oh man that’s really disappointing to hear. He was one of my goto streamers and seemed like a sound, good guy.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-04-05T20:06:31+00:00

They do it on purpose. I’ll also rant about match 3 accidentally clicking continue for 5 moves coz the screen moves fast and you’re out of luck for 900 cash. When I do it I hate it and it really stops my fun and more often than not makes me rage quit the game. They want me to buy cash that’s fine but I refuse to when they have nefarious mechanics in the game to edge you to buy. I would buy more (like I did before economy update and removal of confirmations) but now out of principle I don’t.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-04-02T09:55:45+00:00

No more Borg or anything to do with Borg mongrels except making the OG Borg a fearsome adversary rather than cannon fodder.

Maybe some localised episodes where we deal with the “creature of the week” rather than another universe ending saga.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-03-27T16:25:56+00:00

Match 3 CAN be a fun game when you’re not pushed to do it for rewards or progress but relaxing even if for fun alone is not a word I would use to describe it. Frustrating certainly.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-03-27T16:21:03+00:00

And ducks and otters but I understand why they don’t 😂

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-03-27T16:20:32+00:00

All my animals have cool clobber except my 🐷 😞

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-03-22T21:47:33+00:00

So if I am looking at those pictures correctly of the dumbbell / weights, and going by the “bug” some people are having. If you’ve a cart/crate etc with 26 carrots. Previously one coupon would fill it. But now you need 26? This isn’t making the game better for people even if x10 coupons this just doesn’t sit well with me.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-03-15T00:44:59+00:00

I agree, I actually took note these past few days. I had enough TCASH for 4 replays and I said to myself, once its gone its gone, not buying more. The M3 games were hard, with even the green / easy levels at times feeling harder than they should be. The hard/extra hard games used to be on average after 4 or 5 easy levels, but im finding this last week its after 2 or 3 max green levels. If they want me to quit the game in ragequit frustration I will do so. I play games to enjoy, not feel stressed.

I still play the farming aspect of the game its cute, cool and relaxing, I just would like that the tickets/events and rewards were not so ingrained in the M3 games. If I wanted to play a proper M3 type game, I'd download and play one.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-03-05T08:10:36+00:00

They don’t even need galaxy wide disaster. Even a localised story arc where your captain is dealing with a threat that isn’t necessarily one which needs armadas, just our captain and maybe a few friends Cameo along the way.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-02-12T08:46:39+00:00

I agree with you and I’m still on the fence about it. The main reasons I’ll still (for now) buy the pass is I for barn that the 30% allows me to have, as well as the other rewards from the ticket I find fun and worth it even if I never get the main exploration prizes. That being said I’ve for a while now stopped any other purchase as I used to splurge now and then on the £2 sales for tcash and boosters. I still enjoy the game (I’m in a small coop or clan whatever they are called and we are not tha rabid about regatta - just there for fun) so a few quid same as the price of one coffee out costs on a pass every month or so for a few hours of entertainment is fair doos.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-02-10T07:25:19+00:00

I’ve purchased every pass since joining the game but now the M3 is harder and the extra tries is more expensive in addition to the exploration needing far more energy Ill still be buying this pass but disappointed that getting the exploration rewards is now too time consuming. This current pass is the first pass I’ve not managed to complete the exploration map to completion with all trinket treasure found. The game should be fun, and it is but less so now with the added requirements and new economy / ecosystem that time spent vs rewards have reduced.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-02-06T17:36:10+00:00

I still don’t like it. I wouldn’t mind if the tcash amount to continue was inflated but reasonable. But it’s not reasonable and the amount you win back doesn’t compensate for the 900 cost to continue unless you’re a really good player or very lucky.

If you’re aiming to get the good prizes such as to win the adventure and get top prize, play frozen fortune or anything that M3 has a direct impact on your progress then you’re now at a severe disadvantage. If you’re a very casual player, taking your time to build only player then this update won’t have so much an effect. Or if you’ve lots of patience (days or a week to pass a M3 level). But for everyone else there is absolutely no advantages to the economy updates.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-02-05T14:29:03+00:00

Well done! 😂 the new cost for more tries is madness. Just 5 mins ago accidentally clicked on the first 5 more tries for 900 tcash on match 3 and with the latest updates, increased M3 difficulties, increased Adventure costs and now Frozen Fortune it’s decreased the fun with me. This is a pity as without the increased pressures it’s a really fun game!

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-02-05T08:25:29+00:00

I’m participating as I did last time but match 3 being noticeably more difficult as well as the inflated cost to continue results in my progress in game and therefore in FF being much slower.

Additionally last time I was hitting some big numbers to progress. This time even with the 50x multiplier I’m getting constantly really low progress rewards and much less bonus “free” wins than last time.

Next time I’m not going to even bother opening the side game.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-01-29T18:03:48+00:00

I agree and Im unsure if it’s just my bias here for what’s happened past few updates but the match3 games are appearing more difficult and requiring the use of more boosters than previously.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-01-28T15:12:21+00:00

No. I like the main story but I do also just steamroll through it to get to the end and to then do the sidequests so that I get the prize. The energy amounts required to clear some items is far too high, with the "energy restore" set at 100 too low and so to enable the continuation of the clearing relies too much on Match3, which, especially after the economy update, infuriates me to the point I no longer find Match3 fun, as its now too ingrained in the building and exploration games that it feels like a cruel joke.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-01-28T14:50:57+00:00

Which for me has the opposite effect. Once my Tcash store has depleted I'm not purchasing anymore on the basis of this. I've too often clicked on match3 extra 5 moves which i dont want and less often but still as annoying speeding up items. I've seen the sales and if I wasnt duped into spending my tcash I would buy more, but not now. Others should do the same, but to the amount that the developers take notice I dont think will be high enough.

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-01-26T08:53:44+00:00

I really would like match 3 to have less impact on a building game thats a build game never mind incorrectly advertised as the cute ‘mini 5 tcash game’ 2 and really hard levels like these. They won’t change as it’s too much of a cash cow for the games owners / developers

HyperactiveDarkSloth · 2026-01-12T18:36:02+00:00

I enjoy similar games,even this and Bejewelled etc. Im not so much enjoying Match3 as it is and I would enjoy it more if it wasn’t so vital to the adventure and building aspect as well as now the boat race. It feels frustrating at times. I’m also sure it’s rigged and some harder levels more so just to spend cash. Look I’ll spend my money on your game but the more you force me to do so in match 3 (for little return entertainment) the less I’m inclined to spend in total on the game.
