Game stop

The Game Best Fiends just stops in the middle of a play. Sometimes it comes back up when I go in to access but sometimes it doesn't. It is really frustrating and I have purchased more perks but not able to take full advantage because the game stops on me. What can I do?????

iPad, iPadOS 15

THANK YOU!! This is very helpful. However, I have paid for some of the "perks" and I'm afraid if I delete the app I will lose, not only my position, but my money. I have done all you suggest - I have restarted my iPad, I have had it checked out by professionals and they find nothing wrong with it. So, I'm thinking it is the game and I might have to bite the bullet and delete and reinstall. Thank you for your help and suggestions.
