Bus Jam 12+

Don’t do the upgrade

UPDATE: I am updating to a five star review because they fixed the problem and restored our coins. Thank you for correcting in a timely manner. ****
I lost all the coins I had earned (and paid for) when I upgraded and no one has responded to my complaints. The restore purchases button doesn’t work. **** I loved the game, played it every day, watched the ads I chose to in order to earn more coins and to get more lives and if this doesn’t get resolved, you’re going to lose all my ad income. I will remove the app tomorrow if this isn’t resolved.

Fun Game But Hits a Paywall at Level 397

I've genuinely enjoyed playing Bus Jam for its challenging puzzles. It's a game that combines fun gameplay mechanics with increasingly difficult levels, making it a great pastime. The graphics are simple and decent, offering a smooth gaming experience on iOS devices. However, my enthusiasm took a hit as I reached level 397. At this point, the game introduces challenge that can only be released by purchasing additional tiles. This sudden shift towards a pay-to-win model was disappointing, especially after investing so much time without needing to spend money (except for ads removal, which I did). Like another reviewer mentioned, it seems you're forced to make in-app purchases to progress further. This aspect detracts from the game's initial appeal, where skill and strategy were the only prerequisites for advancement. While I understand the developers' need for monetization, a more balanced approach, offering alternate ways to earn or unlock essential items, would have been preferable. It's a shame because Bus Jam is really fun and engaging up to this point. I'd still recommend it for those who enjoy puzzle games, but with the caveat of the potential need to spend money to fully experience all its levels.

Solid game but comments are right

This is a solid game if you lucky to read my review thanks. 1st. You have to take a break if it get hard I always do and come back and beat it in 1st try. Sometimes our brain (which is a muscle) needs a break.
2nd they are greedy you can tell they want money bad they are desperate for you to spend money but if you are good enough you don’t need to. I remember we got 80 coins now it’s 20. I remember you could send two men at the same time towards the bus now you can’t. I don’t do reviews because most of the time people are complaining but if this reach the developers I hope they read and cut back on the greed. Personally I refuse to spend money when you come off so desperate. And clearly keep changing the goal post so I do spend.
3rdJust chill you got a solid game just listen to your customers, develop a similar game that complements this one. Stop being greedy. Eventually you won’t make nothing in the end if you keep it up. Thanks for reading
