Knit Away Game Reviews

One of the better yarn/wool apps, but has opportunities. This has fewer ads than some of the others, and I like how you can preview what the next color is before uncovering it. I just deleted it in frustration, because if you leave the app mid-game, it restarts and you fail the last level. This then sets you back in your challenges, which is super frustrating. Also, it kept sending me to Safari for an ad in the middle of the game for no reason (I wasn’t trying to watch an ad for extras or anything). Spent too much time playing anyway, so it’s just as well.

Don’t Buy Ad Free Version. I paid for the ad free version so that when I complete a section I can continue without having to watch an ad, what it doesn’t tell you is that it also no longer offers you ads to continue on if you need an extra square during a game, the only option is to use 900 coins and if u don’t have any coins then u have to pay actual money, so you waste your money buying the ad free version, this is the only game that penalizes you for buying the ad free version, also what is the point of the last peg if you lose your turn once you use it, I can see if I don’t have another move to make but once u use it that’s it which makes absolutely no sense.

Like it except the sudden security warning. I enjoy this one compared to the others. The amount of ads is not unreasonable. Plus, this game will let you see the color underneath a selection. My problem with this app (and this was the second time it happened) around level 24, suddenly a mcafee scan will run and tell me that my iPhone is comprised and to renew my subscription. I think this is a bug of some sort… but i basically plan to delete the app out of caution.

Unable to mute any ad. The reason for 2 stars is that EVERY SINGLE AD has no mute button. I play the game without music or sounds so I can either listen to my music or the TV, but none of the ads respect my choice for muted sound. The game was calming until I got to the ad and then it would just frustrate me. Half of the ads made reporting the issue almost impossible and would redirect me to the internet several times per ad. After a few days of putting up with the ad issues, I finally had enough and deleted the game.

Buyer Beware. I really enjoyed this game to start and decided to pay the no ads in support. Big mistake. The second you purchase it’s designed to get you to spend more. I’m now stuck at a level for days I cant get past. I used up the little coins and perks I had. It used to let you watch an ad for things like more space, but my only option is to add more coins and spend money to get past it. Also why does it say you failed if you fill the last spindle? I can understand if no colors left to fill a basket but sometimes you fill it and it reveals a color that could complete a basket. Only a few days later and totally regret this game.

Virus!!!!. This game is extremely fun, however, there is now some sort of virus attached to the game. An “virus blocking” ad randomly opens up in Safari while in the middle of game play. My guess is that one of the ads that Knit Away has used on their site, has created this virus. Extremely saddened by this. I will be using a different knitting game from here on out

Simple addictive fun. This is a surprisingly addictive game! You can play easily without having to pay for play. There are a LOT of long ads but when you accept it and know there’s many “commercial breaks” you get used to it. It’s a great game but $12 to go as free is pretty steep. Good stress relief and I love that you can play many rounds for enjoyment and not habit too hard after 15 rounds so the developer can make you feel stupid and more stressed! Reasonable privacy policy also and that’s always my first look. Thanks!

Great Game but DON’T buy the Remove Ads Bundle. I have enjoyed this app, and found it the most reasonable to play version of yarn sorting/knitting games. I really like the design. In an effort to support the app makers I went ahead and purchased the remove ads bundle, and I sincerely wish I hadn’t. I thought I’d still have the option of choosing to buy tools/boxes with the in game currency OR by watching an ad, and simply remove the ads that automatically pop up when you complete a level. Nope, I’m now screwed and can either delete and no longer play the game because most levels are unworkable without the extra tools/boxes or I can pay more money for the in game currency or items, which I refuse to do. So if you’re looking for a well ordained and fun yarn spring app, this is a good fit, but DON’T buy the remove ads bundle because it makes the game unplayable. So disappointed, I wish I could remove that purchase from my account, the publisher can key the money, but I’m sad I won’t be able to enjoy this lowly game anymore.

hot, low battery. i came here to see if anyone else was having this problem incase it was just my phone. i did end up seeing another review similar to mine. I really do enjoy this game and have no “bug” issues within the app. my only complaint is that my phone gets extremely hot from playing and it drains my battery percentage. i’ve never had that happen with any other app i’ve ever used/downloaded. As much as enjoy the game i am going to have to uninstall the app because i am afraid for my phone to be damaged. thank you

Not fair play. I have played level 52 prob 50 times and I suspect the computer is cheating & making it impossible for me to win. Each time I play the colors and combinations are different and it is not a consistent play, so it’s like the color of the box appears is calculated based on however my game is set currently and for me to lose. Downloaded a few days ago, Paid $12 to go ad free and purchased the golden ticket, and will now be deleting since it doesn’t feel like a fair game.

They make you pay to win level 14. I am so repulsed by this game. My sweet girlfriend loved this game until she got to level 14. I never want to see the number 14 ever again after this godforsaken game. It is impossible to win without using coins. And she didn’t have enough coins because we thought if you bought a new space it would stay. But NO it’s only for one level. This is outrageous and I immediately suggest you change this.

Do NOT pay for no ads!. I enjoy this game, so I paid to remove the ads (which I always feel is a nice way to support a game I like). I feel like I got penalized for paying!! Paying for ads removes the option to watch an ad to revive. I think that’s stupid. Most games still let you watch an ad if you want a certain reward. I wish I could go back to not having paid, which makes no sense that they would design it that way. It’s a shame, because out of the few yarn removal games I’ve tried, this one was the best by far.

Is there a glitch. This game is great, and I’ll purchase the no ads when I get paid, but I’m suddenly unable to watch videos to revive, is this new or happens when I get more into the levels, it’s annoying when you have to keep a streak and don’t have the money to pay for it…

❤️❤️❤️LOVE THIS GAME!!!. This game is super relaxing super fun and there r a ton of levels a couple ads but not much and it’s EXACTLY how it is in the ads but better the graphics are great the levels are fun and some r challenging but overall its a really great game and I would definitely recommend it

Good game but disappointing. I liked this game enough to purchase the no ads feature. However that apparently removed the OPTION to watch an add to receive an extra box or drill hole etc…. So now too help me with levels I’d have to spend more money to do it. The other disappointment is that it makes no sense for the game to end after you use the last hole if you have a move left to use. What’s the point of having it there when the only reason to use it is to end the level. Leaves no chance and it’s frustrating. Fix those two issues and I’ll give it a higher rating

Love this game, but I feel cheated. After level 300 or so, I finally shelled out the $7.99 to get rid of the forced ads with the promise that I could keep optional ads for power ups. Turns out, I only had the option to increase coins and get an extra life. No ads for N extra box, no power ups, no revival, nothing. I can only get them if I spend coins now. There’s no way to win 50 levels in a row without using those at least some times, so, I have to spend even more money if I want to beat that challenge. If you’re better at the game than I am and don’t need those power ups, I’m sure you won’t even notice, but it was extremely disappointing for me to realize. And now I have to either lose constantly or go back to the god awful ads

Used to be fun. This game without a doubt has the longest ads of any game and it doesn’t have a countdown. Since an update you no longer have the ability to watch an ad to try again. That means unless you purchase things you will most likely have to do the same challenge over and over and over again which is a waste of time and feels like you made zero progress. If this is not a glitch and remains in the game, I will delete it because I don’t have a million years to do each challenge and hope that I can finally solve it. I would also never pay any money for this game. I would have given it 4 stars before because of the ads but am changing it to 2 stars because it is fun. When you can actually solve something. There are other games like this.

Fun until it wasn’t. I really enjoyed this game until lives wouldn’t reload. One day it said I had 20 minutes until lives would reload but I could get 1 life by watching an ad, which I did. However no life loaded. The next day, I had 0 lives, meaning the lives that should have loaded the previous day never did. I also watched an ad again with the promise of getting 1 life but it didn’t happen.

The best game ever!!!!!. This is an awesome game if you want to have a break there is some adds after each level but there short so I think it’s fine. Sometimes i get a panic attack cause i’m excited to see what color is next after getting the yarn it’s actually what the add says and show and it’s awesome how it doesn’t lie to you definitely try it.

Really great. The best of its kind! Most of these style games force you to watch multiple ads just pass the level. While this does have a short ad between each level, all the levels are passable without watching more ads.

Fun for awhile. This game was pretty fun for the first 2-300 levels, albeit having to wait a lot on ads to play in order to progress past the limiting turns. However I reached a point where the app was randomly launching a fake “virus scanner” spam popup website in Safari on each level even without me clicking on anything. Very annoying and led me to delete the app.

Great game. This is an awesome game! Only have 1 major complaint keeping me from 5 stars. There is a 5th slot to discard the color and using it immediacy ends the level. Why have it if that’s the case. If I can open up a color with that slot then let me play it

Money Pit. Don’t spend any money on this app. If you pay to remove ads between games, they also take away your ability to earn tools by watching ads, which means they expect you to pay for extra coins & tools which they charge ridiculous amounts to use. If you purchase anything in this app, just know that you have paid to stop playing or paid to keep paying.

Forced to buy. This game is so much fun and addicting. The problem is, once you buy buttons, you can no longer use adds to help level up. I don’t have money to spend every two seconds, for games. It would be nice to still be able to view ads as a means of leveling up. Instead now bc of one beginning pack purchase, I am forced to continue buying buttons if I want to play and since I don’t have the kind of money on the regular, I can’t play this game anymore. Sad that I have to delete. 🫤

Don’t pay for NO ADS. It will cost you more money and be less enjoyable. Usually You get an ad to receive coins for each game won and you can also choose an ad to get a power up. But if you buy the No Ads you can only use coins for the power ups and don’t have the option to choose an ad if you don’t have the money. The only way to play then is to buy more coins. I am ok with buying but not with a game that you need to pay to do the basic things.

Don’t pay to remove ads!. I made the mistake of paying to remove the ads only to get stuck forever at the level I’m on unless I’m willing to purchase coins. Removing ads eliminates the ability to watch an ad to continue playing. You are forced to start over. That was a very sneaky way to screw over those willing to spend money on the game.

Fun but frustrating. I recently just downloaded this game and it is very fun and challenging. I do love playing it. One thing I CANT STAND, when I’m playing the game and I go out of it then back in even know I’m in the middle of the game it closes the game and I have to start all over again. That really frustrates me! If possible can you please change that so that doesn’t happen. I do enjoy your game, that’s the other issue I have with it.

Optional Ad Feature Removed and Virus Pop-Up Ads. I play this game every day. Suddenly, without warning, the “watch an ad” option to obtain an extra yarn box (amongst other things) was removed. Also, there are “virus” ads that pop-up during gameplay that take you to a different screen which you have to x out of then physically return to the game. What was once an enjoyable game is now aggravating.

Fun game!. I have tried other similar games, and this is the only one I’ve found where you can often complete the level without having to watch an ad to get a booster. I also love being able to touch and hold on a piece to see the color of the piece beneath; that’s a very nice feature!

Used to love this app. I really enjoy this game and play it regularly. But now I’m pretty much done. They’ve taken away the ability to watch ads for power ups. Now you have to pay for them. Not going to do it. If I don’t get the ability to watch ads for power ups back, I’m done. I’ve gotten too far in the game to pass levels without at least adding a box. This feels like a bait and switch and there are other wool raveling games.

Might have a virus. I really enjoyed this game but had to uninstall it because I was playing yesterday and every time I clicked on yarn to unravel it, it brought up this virus scan thing and it worried me that it might have one so I deleted it. If I can be reassured that it was checked and is clean I will download it again.

I’m sad do delete this. I have been playing this game for quite a while, I got to level 132, and now sometimes when I click on yarn I get a “anti virus” pop up. Deeply saddened. Another user on here mentioned that one of the companies that runs ads on the game, must have created a virus. The game also had a ton of ads, and I’m not gonna pay to escape them. I am parting ways with this game today, and will download a different yarn collecting game.

Fun game but…. This game is very fun but the fact that I have to finish a board before I do anything else, because it will not save my progress, is crazy. I need to answer a call and my progress is gone. Please do something about this otherwise it’s too frustrating to keep playing. I lose just because I need to do something else real quick? That’s silly.

Don’t download if you’re not ready to play!. This game is so satisfying! I want to play it all the time. It’s definitely addicting. So just be ready. The main thing that bothers me is all the ads. I might upgrade one day and pay the fee because of how often I play it. Big fan!

No more ad boosters. I’ve enjoyed playing this game but in the last couple of days it took away my ability to gain a booster by watching an ad. It keeps telling me that if I buy the ad-free version, I can still watch ads to get boosters, but I don’t want to have to buy the ad-free version to have this option.

Removed optional ads after paying. I really enjoyed this game, enough to pay for no ads but shortly after doing that I am now unable to get a box by watching an ad! Essentially they removed optional ads after I paid. It’s now impossible to get another box without paying money, whereas before I could just watch an ad. Thought it was a glitch but saw another review that said the same thing. How cheap

Already paid. I was really enjoying playing then….. when I played the game before I paid for ad free I was able to watch an add to revive the level. Now I can pay 900 coins or replay. Also I really don’t like that you have to pay if you want to quit the game. I’m sorry that I paid for the game

Drives me crazy. Was relaxing till I moved a yarn to the last peg revealing the color yarn I needed to fill in last spot in a box & it then said I lost the round. Thought it was a glitch so I kept playing but every time I fill the last peg to get the color I need I lose the round. I’m deleting this game today as it’s super annoying and not relaxing at all

Finally Driven Away. Enjoyed this as an unwind for a week or so, and would have preferred to continue. Fun and a bit challenging in a phone-app kind of way. In app ads can be a little heavy (used for gaining “rewards” to get you out of a tight spot), but that’s understandable. Finally had to ditch it today, though, after it opened my browser in mid-level over half a dozen times in a short session. Ads between levels or that I take on willingly for a “reward” I can deal with. Six Mcafee scam ads popping up on my browser over the course of a few minutes? Hope it’s worth the revenue, guys.

It’s a chill game. I like the game but the annoying part is when they introduce a new tool they prompt you to use the tool to see how it’s used and then they take away the tool that they gave you. I think it’s pretty standard, but yes, you show us how to use it, but you also leave us the tool to actually use🙃 that seems like a pretty small, but disappointing feature of the game!

Fun until you get to a higher level. I fell in love with this game. I contemplated buying the ad free version until I read the reviews so I left it with watching ads for revivals as that option is taken away with paying for no ads. I am now at level 338 and no longer have the option to watch an ad and the level is near impossible to pass. I’ll be deleting the app as I didn’t want another game to sink money into in order to pass levels.

fun for five minutes. I saw an ad for the game (ironic considering this review) and decided to give it a shot. It was gen fun for a few minutes, maybe until level twenty or so, but after that you need to watch ads to even have a shot of getting through each level. I understand an ad every once and a while, it’s needed for free ads and it’s just how it is, but the amount of ads you need to watch just for a single level to be semi playable is just ridiculous. Definitely not a game i’d recommend, and likely won’t remember after a few days.

My favorite unwind game. I enjoyed the play through of this game and decided to give the full game a week. I’m hooked! The ads are minimal compared to other free games which I love. I play it more when I’m stressed and want to “unwind” - no timers allow me to play at my leisure. The puzzles are cute and the colors are calming. I’ve encountered no technical issues. My husband saw me playing and got interested enough that he downloaded the game himself. This game is for all ages.

Malware Virus. The game is priced too high to remove ads. That being said it was fun and a good way to unwind and kill time. However, a few weeks ago their game got infected with malware. Tried contacting the developers but they blame it on the ads. Well then run better ads on your app. It’s clearly something that has infested the game they need to look at their servers. It’s been going on for weeks. Deleting the app due to this unaddressed issue as I am not interested in getting malware from this mindless game.

It was fun. I truly loved the game and the diverse puzzles. However, being forced to watch an ad or possibly spend money in order to beat the level, I am not doing!!! Why do games keep doing this when it makes them lose people? Games are already making money from ads being shown. Why lose people on top of that due to these other issues?

No more free rewards. Very disappointed as this was my new favorite game and was even considering buying the ad free version to support the game. I am glad I did not! Now, the option to watch an ad to either revive the current game or get an extra box for an additional color is completely gone. Now the only way to do that is to have earned enough buttons or purchase buttons. If you don’t have enough buttons then you are out of options to complete those more difficult levels unless you cave to being forced to spend money. And you can’t earn buttons unless you complete the levels. I sadly am not going to go down this route of spending money over and over again, as they obviously want people to do. So I will be switching to another similar game.

Okay but get ready to buy coins. It was a fun puzzle until I got to level 45 that cannot be won without buying coins to get special helps. I want a game that can be won by skill, not buy having to spend money. My only choice now is to delete it because I’m not spending money for a “free” game.

Random shut downs. I like the game, it is very relaxing. However, it repeatedly randomly shuts down - right in the middle of a game. It completely ruins my win streak in the competition, & I have to start all over from one win again. Otherwise, I love the game.

No longer fun just costly. Really liked this game and played all the time. A recent update took away the option to watch an ad for a booster and now the only option is to pay coins. Considering how expensive the boosters are and how slowly you gain coins, obviously they want you to buy the coins with real money. I don’t mind spending real money on games I like but this would become excessive with how many boosters you need to pass a level. Thought I found the perfect, relaxing game but now I won’t play unless this is fixed.

Scareware redirect. This was a fun game, with many opportunities to watch an ad to revive or add a box. Some of the colors are very similar in shade, which was challenging. I was really enjoying it until I kept being redirect to Safari for a fake Macafee “virus scan”. It was happening 5+ times in one level of game play. This is only app it was happening with, so it’s been deleted and I’ll look for a competitor that hasn’t been infected with Scareware.

levels. impossible to get past level 45 been stuck on it for over a week

Ability to watch ads keeps disappearing. Such a great game but the ability to watch an ad for revive disables itself and it makes it very frustrating to play.

Stop the long adds. I really enjoy this game but the adds make it almost unplayable. I can’t deal with the constant 60 second workout/ weight loss adds what I have to click close on 4 different pop ups. I don’t want to go to the App Store! The weight loss adds and the add at the end of every game with no option to skip it too much!!!

Punished for paying. I play this game a lot, like a lot and bought a gold pass. Problem is it removed my ability to watch ads for boosters etc. Had to delete as a result.

Ads glitch broke game. Great game except for latest patch. Now you watch ads however it gets stuck on this one pace and doesn’t finish ad. So you never progress

Can’t get past lvl 73. Love this game but I’ve been on level 73 for ages. Please make it do-able. Thanks. Then I’ll give it 5 stars

Changing features. I enjoy this game BUT a few times now the ability to revive on a level by watching an ad just disappears for a few days. This makes it very difficult to finish levels and generally enjoy the game during this time. Is this a game glitch or something user related? It seems to disappear and reappear randomly.

Boring and Expensive. Tedious, laborious animation. Was already bored by level 10. They want $20 for that? Big thumbs down for me. Not even worth for free. Deleted.

Love it. ❤️

I can’t delete it now. It got boring so easy
