Saw Cassandra’s review and the developers response so I decided to download and it’s a great time kill game (Also seen you guys added an apology to your “pay to remove ads screen” that’s not necessary but cool that you guys did that). I’ve played games with way worse ads that force you to play a mini game for 45 seconds while you stare at the top of your screen hoping to see the x pop up, and if that’s not bad enough you get the same ad after playing one level that lasts ten seconds. And $10 to just remove ads is a bit steep however I get the feeling it’s more for supporting the developers than just the convenience of not getting interrupted every minute. (To the devs) I do have two suggestions for the devs as far as making the game a little more visually pleasing: 1: Instead of a dotted line connecting between each resource node do roads. These roads can differ depending on what node they’re coming from (dirt between woods and saw mill, asphalt between sawmill to factory, and highways to the cities. After that just have the resources follow those instead of flying off the line.(maybe even trucks with the resource symbols) 2: Have the bold borders between regions disappear when you own everything around them it clutters the screen a bit and makes it more difficult to find the random coins around the map. Great game so far though keep up the good work 👍

It’s a fun game if you can get past the ads randomly showing up as you’re playing. So I decided to pay $9.99USD (before tax) to get rid of the ads. It got rid of the randomly occurring ones, but not the ones you need to watch for boosts. I’m used to games getting rid of all ads if I pay money, not just some. I know, small company, but it should be specified which ads are actually going away and not sound like you’re getting rid of all ads. Also the offline option doesn’t seem to work for me? I was offline over night because I was sleeping, got back on in the morning expecting to have made some money, and saw that not only did I not make any money, I was just as broke as I was before I fell sleep. If you’re supposed to be making X amount per minute while away, then you should make something over night, even if it was capped. So not seeing the prompt about how much I made while away, and not even getting the option to watch an ad to multiply my earnings, well, it was disheartening. Now, not to sound like that type of person, but I never write reviews for apps. If I don’t like it, I delete it. But never have I regretted spending money on an app as much as I did this one. With a high rating I wasn’t expecting it to pretty much scam you. And I don’t read reviews because it’s an app, I either like it or don’t, and it’s free to download. But I wished I did, maybe someone else had this problem and I could have avoided it and saved my money

This note was meant specifically for this developers of this game: Dear Developers, Thank you for putting in all of the effort in creating this game.I realize that it is not your fault for the ads. You need the money from the ads to keep processing/developing this game. I also understand that you are probably upset for all of the rotten and mean reviews. You should let people know that you need the money from the ads to keep making the game. (This is a suggestion) You should put like a little note in the game next to where the “No ads” game pass is. You should make it say something like, “I’m sorry for the excessive ads. I need the money for the game.” or something like that. It would help the reviewers realize it’s not your fault. Other people say that the “No ads” product doesn’t get rid of the ads. If you made it work, people would be happier. (These are all just suggestions, so please don’t think I’m trying to tell you what to do. By the way, GREAT game! It is SO fun! If you DO happen to make another game, please let me know by advertising it on this game or something. Thank you for taking time out of your day for reading this. This is one of the best and most relaxing games that I’ve ever played. 😁😁😁😁😁 Sincerely, Cassandra

I really struggle figuring out if I like this game. There is a lot of potential, but I don’t know if it actually “fun”. Ads pop up every 20 seconds or so which is super excessive. They offer a no ads mode for $10, but that makes you wonder if the game is worth $10. That is a lot of money. I literally just bought dying light on sale for $20 yesterday. Is this half as fun as that game? I have played a lot of phone games and I understand they need to make money. Here are my thoughts: No ads that interrupt gameplay without the player triggering it, it breaks immersion. Every ad that is watched should have a good benefit attached to it. Make it so that these ads = a ton of gameplay time worth of success. I have played a few idle games that did this right where I wanted to watch the ads so much that the game could not generate the ads fast enough and I had to wait to the system to generate new ones for me. The best part is that I stayed engaged. Like I said, lots of potential here. I hope that this helps!
