Simon's Cat - Crunch Time 9+

Nostalgia

This game gives me memories of six year old me and my mum playing it, I used to download random mobile games but this one was the most nostalgic, because my mum and me where on level 800 until we just forgot about it, it came up in recommended today and I miss my levels but every level reminds me of childhood (I’ve also noticed that all tactile games are basically the same) I’ve been a fan of tactile before it was even called tactile. you don’t know what joy this brings me, Tysm and you better be happy that this game is nostalgia

The game has got too greedy

I’ve loved playing this game and a couple of months ago would have given it 5 stars but I’m sick of being stuck on levels for hundreds of goes with no way of advancing but to pay (again). I understand that you have to earn money to pay for making the game but to advance a level by giving in and paying and then getting stuck on the next level too. The game even mocks you. ‘Too bad, you didn’t finish the hard levels’.

I’d consider myself a skilled player but this game is getting close to going the same way as Candy Crush did for me. I’m not really getting enjoyment from it anymore as I’m stuck on levels with too few moves to cover actually winning the game without paying up. I’ve spent waaaay to much money on this game and if it continues like this I’ll be looking for something new to play which is a pity as it’s a lovely little game. So many levels don’t rely on skill, just playing again and again for hours or days and then only paying for more moves will complete the game. I’ve won and bought heaps of boosters and they don’t really give good value for money either.

Room for improvement

I actually love playing this game, I love the challenges, the bonuses and rewards and how seemingly quickly you can get through the game. The game itself overall would be 5 stars.

I’ve got 2 problems.
1. It’s insanely infuriating (for me personally) when I open the app 10 thousand pop ups jump in my face and prevent me from continuing my progress. Some of these pop ups are ads for other games this company has, the rest are all just essentially reminders of treasure hunts and things of that nature which really don’t ever go away, so I don’t need to be reminded of something that’s 99% of the time always there.
2. Although it’s relatively easy to get through, it’s almost impossible sometimes unless you spend money. There are levels you can be stuck on for weeks, but the second you spend money you get through the level faster than Thanos can click his fingers. Sometimes it’s like $2:99 eh who cares, but that eventually adds up and I don’t believe in paying to play a game that refuses to let you pass for free. I don’t want to be forced to play. Of course I could always delete the app and never play it again, but I do quite enjoy it.

Other than that, this game is a great game to play to pass time, it’s addictive, it’s satisfying, it’s challenging and I absolutely recommend downloading this game and giving it a go.
