I'd give it ZERO stars if I could. There is no way to earn, win, or stock pile any items. Even when you "buy" it's a very limited supply of 1 to 5 of each so you're constantly having to shell out more tokens. Nobody follows any of the challenges as far as voting. It seems like none of the voters like color. If the challenge is all about pink you would think "pink" is what you should be using. But no, boring is what wins either all white or all beige. Some of the challenges even the winners themselves say I can't even believe I won. Even after you buy and have a good number of items to decorate your next room you'll go in there and I'll have limited what you can use. And it's usually not anything you have so you have to buy more. I believe the game is designed to keep people just enough addicted to it so they want to play but that you have to spend actual money to get anywhere. It became quickly not fun to play. Especially when you try to redo a design five times and still can't get three hearts. Or when you know 100% your design is better than the one you went up against and you still lose.
This is a fun game but there is something tricky about the journal designs and the way the voting is done. I see horrible designs winning against really good ones...makes no sense. Also their Facebook page is a joke. They don't believe in freedom of speech, even mind constructive criticism or anything posted that doesn't glorify their page, is removed.
Very unfair in voting (which is done by bots — not other players). There is no way to get ahead so you can keep playing. Your real money just goes to this $6M company who are taking your money. Results on designs are randomly selected within minutes (you can check the status of your design by clicking on "in voting" and then click on each design submitted. I purposely decorated a hideous design (pictured) and came in 5th place. Try it. $348,000 in coins for $19.99 and you'll be lucky to decorate 5-7 designs. Poof! You just lost $19.99
I use to think this game was fun. But since I've advanced it seems to be freezing and I lose the design I just did! So it deletes everything, you even lose your coins and have to start over! Twice I had to purchase coins to do the same design over! Rip off! And where do you go to contact the company about this matter? I'm done with this game constantly freezing and losing my previous design and then having to make a purchase! I want a refund and my designs back!
I feel so much better after reading some of the reviews posted here. I have used the ReDecor app for a few years now. I was on and then stopped. Then I decided to start up again and discovered that I had lost everything that I had purchased prior so I had to start over. 🤬I pride myself in my ability and talent to make a beautiful design. After reading these reviews, it makes so much sense. When I am buying and spending I win for the most part. When I don't I lose, I'm pretty sure that the voting is done by bots and our individual votes mean nothing. I haven't ever seen an app that is so expensive. It is astonishingly expensive actually! If you just do it a few times, just to have fun or to pass some time it is fine. If you want to be competitive, it's going to cost you! So if you want a masterpiece painting it will cost you approximately $25 for one use!😳
Oh, and the site freezes constantly!
So I just got kicked off of Redecor because I won't give my age? Besides all of the new tasks to hero ones status, now I don't qualify as a gamer if I don't give up personal information? I'd like to see the community weigh in on another layer of payment (ie personal) we need to give up to participate. Anyone else fed up with the high price asked?
Honestly the 14 day to meet your status instead of 30 is another money grabber or addiction trigger! If you have a life your a looser
Redecor started out as a very fun game; however, over the ears the rules have changed, the cost of items has been jacked up, and voting is a sham. The game play is the best out there for a design game, but it's not worth what you have to spend to keep playing. These days there are better options out there for interior design games.
This game used to be great with the old owners, but now it's horrible. It actually used to be a design game but now it's a random-generated casino game. None of the voting makes any sense at all, and 75% of the time the top prize for decorating a room is less than you are forced to spend to create the room. If you dare to use any colors other than white or beige, you'll automatically be sent directly to the bottom, so all the rooms either look exactly alike, or like they were designed by colorblind four years old coming down from a sugar high. These two --beige and wtf -- will "randomly" be placed 1-3 while designs that look good and look like their designers spent actual time and effort will be in the bottom 6.
All this game cares about is getting you to send them more and more money. It's such a blatant money grab that it borders on the edge of obscene.
This game used to be wonderful until the new owners took it over. Before you could actually use skill to affect your outcome, but now it's random with cash players getting much better outcomes than non-cash players. Before the new owners you could accurately predict what the voters wanted, but now it's completely random, with players that pay the most getting better odds of winning than ones that do not pay or only buy the season pass. If you like getting beat by rooms that look like a 3 year old child designed them while tripping on LSD this is your game. For others, it's just frustrating to watch really bad designs win over well-thought out designs over and over and over and over again. It's too bad, it really used to be a nice relaxing game. It's nothing put a pile of defecation now. Save your money AND your time.
I have designed 2870 rooms. I liked it at first BUT NOW the cost is extremely high and unacceptable. Plus I have gotten charged 3x for an item I had but they claim I had zero. So I decided to go through every transaction and items I purchased which is 3529 items. As of today it is over $350.00! Overcharged. I refuse to be manipulated. If Redecor thinks we don't realize this illegal practice well my attorney recommends I get overcharged back if not See you in court.
Previously loved this app. Creative!, fun, good for mind.
SADLY, now it's a money depleting frustrating game.
To bad they don't realize how many people have left just for that reason.
ALSO, Some items I acquired/paid for disappear. The next day it's gone.
I hope there is an improvement within 2 weeks or I am done. Uninstall
You cannot get far before Redecor wants you to commit to at least $20/week for token purchases. App can force you to THINK you MUST buy tokens. Nope. Scam. Easy to get addicted. Beware. I will not be suckered like this. Try another site.
We have some of the top designs internationally and what I've experienced and seen firsthand is unfairness through voting. I'm not sure if it's other designers or staff doing the voting, but it's clearly done in a unfair way. If you design with white or gray, you're all set. Most of us use colors as everyday people do.
I purchased "star coins" on this app several times and my count never went up and they refused to give me a refund for my purchase. They claimed I needed to keep logging out and logging in after each purchase. They got forty dollars from me for nothing in return! One day I had 125 star coins and then without doing anything on the game I saw that the next day my coin count was down to 85. And without coins you can't do designs. It's made to keep forcing you to purchase coins. It's bull$#*!. They also don't allow you to see any of your purchases or dates and times of those purchases at all. Totally shady. Scam, scam, scam! Do not recommend this app.
The new update has been so frustrating. Everything is so expensive and sometimes when you win challenges you don't even win enough coins to buy 1 item in the game. It's insane! The items that were cheaper before are like the most expensive and I have been placing 7/8/9/10 where before I was doing better! I'm losing duels to the most terrible designs. It's frustrating cause I LOVED this game but now not so much.
Wow! It's amazing what writing a bad review will do to help one resolve things! To their credit, the folks at Redecor have swiftly restored my rightful A-List ranking. Now I can also improve their rating, as my complaint has been redressed.
Algorithm based voting, money hungry, intrusive pop ups, 3.72 v 3.72 often match up. You get rubbish coins for completing challenges. Have done 6000 designs, 2800 podiums, 250 5 stars, and about $800 out of pocket. Where are their replies to all these one star reviews? Money grabbing game with no integrity. Rigged voting. Picture is my last 5 star design 1st place after I spent dollars. Never again. Often my designs at this standard come 5th or 6th and dark monstrosities come first. Did they use more expensive items? Yes they did. It's based on how much your designs cost in coins. Terrible.
Played this game for several years, worked my way up to level 10 then POOF! Thrown back to level 9 because I didn't "win" the requisite 150 rooms in one month. (A nearly impossible task without spending a load of cash buying the points necessary to even play). I'm done. I will occupy my time doing something constructive!
Unregulated Chinese app, totally ruined the game in all aspects. It's supposed to be fun and obviously now it stresses me out and depresses me. Should be banned from the web! I'm not certified decorator but been giving help and advice for fashion and home decor since I was a teenager! Don't waste your time and efforts just to get disappointed continually after playing with the original owners without any problems. I went from loving to hating the redecor game!
I, too, loved this game. Gave me more confidence in designing. Now? It's a rip off. Few new designs or repeated designs, they take the things you already paid for away. This has to stop. They make think they're immune to a class action suit, little do they know that no one can waive their right to sue. Unfortunately, I don't have much 'going on' right now so I continue to play and be taken advantage of. Pisses me off. Anyone know of a better design gane?
This game used to be a great way to relax and have fun decorating rooms. Unfortunately, a new company took over in Nov 2022 and completely ruined the game. They make us win a certain number of rooms to maintain a Status level which none of us are interested in. They lock items in our inventory if we drop down a level. Items that used to cost hundreds now cost thousands. It's sometimes impossible to complete the daily challenges because we run out of coins. The voting is rigged. It's just not fun anymore. In fact, I would say it has become downright stressful having to maintain a level for fear of losing items we paid for or unlocked with prizes. Shame on the new company!
Been playing since 2020, got friends onto it and even treated them to season passes. Would spend regularly and consistently. The game is a shadow of its former self, the joy has gone, the want to play isn't there and nothing about this game or who runs it feels right. Save your money and time, find a better game run by people who actually want you to have a good experience.
Answer: There are virtually no "good" ways to to spend tokens or coins. They do everything they can to convince you that you MUST have the newest and most expensive. Not so. I've started buying only the monthly Season Pass for $4.99. They'll get no other money from me.
Answer: Mine does this also! Especially when placing items on the picture
