I'm probably one of the few ones who still plays both versions depending on I'm connected to Wi-Fi or not. Puzzles are not impossible, you only need high leveled birds, skills and some luck to pass them. I wouldn't be at level 200 with birds at rank 11 + gold slingshot + x3 multipliers hats if that weren't true. I would be a lot further, but I play mostly on the Arena (PvP).
I'm aware that's not the kind of gaming we use to love and play, but I also understand the reason of their ways. Current generations have the attention span of a fly, if they find something difficult they will simply move to something else. All they look for are revenue from 5 minute plays and the way they have found so far is advertising, short lapse rewards to keep them back and milking impatient people willing to spend money. I rarely run out of game tries and advertising isn't in-game banners, so that's some progress in mobile gaming.
