I have played this game for about a year now, and can say that I have absolutely enjoyed and loved it. It has so much going on as far as competitions, seasons, makeovers and so much more. I have played a lot of hours on this game, as my night shift hours allow a lot of quiet and downtime, and I have also allocated this game a quite healthy budget. However, unfortunately and with regret, I have now removed Gardenscapes and have discontinued playing it, and the reason for this is that there is just no way I can continue to justify the budget I choose to spend just to be able to play it. It has become a pay to play game for me at level 9000+. Each level is so difficult that I can spend a couple of days trying to beat a level, or give in and pay for extra lives to do it. And quite often paying for one extra set of lives is not enough to beat a level. The game developers have recently removed some awards for beating bonus levels, such as bombs, which when you rely on these to help complete a level, makes the game even more difficult at level 9000+. Combine this with the fact that at 9000+ you get NO value out of the season tickets and rewards due to how difficult each level has become, which come at a cost to purchase, and the game for me lost its enjoyability and became more frustrating and just bad value for money. Such a shame, because it really is a very clever and was a an extremely enjoyable game.
