Just deleted what I consider a great game because the ads are out of control. It’s bad enough when they are 5 second ads, but now they are using up to 30 second ads. When you try to get out of watching the long ads they lock you out of the game. The worst part is there are so many ads the game freezes.Update after email response:I received the email below in response to a review I left describing issues due the inordinate amount of ads that seem to have begun. It used to be shorter and fewer ads, but now they are more numerous, much much longer and sometimes two in a row. This completely takes the enjoyment out of the game. If that were all there was, it would be bad enough, but now most of the ads show up as a black screen, crash the game, and when you try backing out of the game to retry, either the same thing happens, or you get a message saying "there is no advertisement available." Of course I don't care if there is no ad available, but it won't let you play. All of this has completely ruined an otherwise great game. I have too many other things to do and when I take a few minute break to play a game and relax, I don't want 5 minutes of game (when it works) and 10 minutes of ads. I not only don't pay attention to the ads, but have deleted apps I used to own because of the hundreds of times they come up. Also, the ads are always trying to prevent us from stopping them with additional pop ups and it can take 3-5 hits and another 5-15 seconds each to finally end an ad which lengthens the time the ad is taking from the game significantly. Seconds easily turn into minutes and a lot of wasted time. Especially when the game constantly crashes.
Hello! Thank you for your honest feedback. We are so sorry that you are dissatisfied with our game.
