I’m still figuring out the tournament aspect of the game cuz for some reason I had 10 cents in my PS wallet and all of a sudden a couple weeks later I had 10 dollars on it for some reason.

@ QWin15: Thank you! I was just about to delete the game because it was asking me to buy more crystals to play again. Had no idea that you just had to remove your powerups! I like the game, but hate having to pay over and over just to play. Agreed that they should’ve worded the UI a little clearer. Thanks Again!!!

This game is a rip-off. Yes, I can wait a few minutes to play 5 more lives “for free”. Yes, I can play the daily “scratch’n win” game and get “free” gems. Yes, I have been playing it extensively for free, a few hours a day for a week now. And then I started noticing that the game is programmed to make it impossible for you to level up UNLESS you buy stuff. Have you noticed how your first daily game is typically high-scoring, but then the more you play the more difficult it gets to get scores above 10,000 without items? With 10 or less awarded gems per game? I’m an experienced player (heck, I’ve been playing videogames since 1976!), and this game is a real scam. A sad attempt to cash in for repeated (and ultimately pointless) transactions. Highly frustrating (unless you fork out a lot of money, then the game becomes “surprisingly” instantly gratifying, making you score like crazy. Avoid.

This is a pretty fun game. The waiting sucks. Bought Montezuma 3 on Amazon for $2.99. I can play that when waiting for hearts to refill on the Vita.

Elvick,
Why would I want to do that. What other game do I have to wait to play. What other game do I have to wait an hour to play some more. I’m going to wait to play this tripe so I can be cut off after one minute? You gotta be kidding.

People like you just don’t get it. If I had known the nature of the game, I never would’ve downloaded it in the first place. It was misrepresented and they were deliberately deceptive concerning the nature of the game. The fact you don’t see that makes you far worse than just ignorant.

82: You’re only asked to pay if you are too impatient to wait. You don’t have to pay to continue. Just give the game an hour or so and you can play some more.

Just because you’re ignorant, and IGN is ignorant (what else is new) doesn’t mean the game is not free to play. a

Game sounds too troublesome to even attempt to download. I have to wait for hearts if I want to play? and I can only play in short bursts? Yeah no thanks.

Deleted when it tryed to charge me to play. Sony you need to not do this ever again. I bought a gaming console not a facebook micro transaction machine. Really disappointing

For those of you who don’t like to wait for the hearts to refill, consider that they are updated on a time basis.
What time? Well your system time, of course!

I wasn’t aware that the hearts refill automatically (granted I saw one or two show up while I was playing).

So what you should do:

Open your Settings and go to Date/Time and disable auto-updating. Click Manual and keep that screen open.

1. Play through all lives in TOM Blitz
2. Hit the PS button and scroll over to Settings (Don’t close TOM Blitz)
3. Cycle the day forward once and click “Done”
4. PS button back to TOM Blitz and notice you have full lives!
5. Go back to step 1

Enjoy playing this game CONSTANTLY!

It’s completely free to play. My “game” is already up to level 3 with several thousand crystals, upgraded totems and bonuses and I have yet to pay for anything.
