Billionaire: Money & Power 12+

Kinda fun but irritating.

I enjoyed the content in this game, and as a free version I can see the necessity of the continuous ads, but it is next to impossible to make any decisions with the amount of in game currency that you start with, also once those funds deplete there is no option to watch an ad to gain funds like there is with the diamonds, and no way to convert diamonds into cash, making it almost impossible to not have to spend real life money on the game, I would increase my rating if that option was made available. Other than that it is a good time killing game. Also having to watch 5 ads in a row to unlock the next chapter is a little excessive, I think 2-3 ads, 15 minutes off the time a piece would suffice.

Annoying

The game could’ve been great! Challenging and fun. 1- ruined by the excessive amount of ads. You want me to watch ads to earn diamonds or whatever fine. But literally having to be interrupted every 2 minutes to watch the same 3 ads over and over again gets really old and makes me not want to play it at all. Plus the 45 minute cool down time between segments of the RPG? You basically can’t play the game without being annoyed to death unless you buy the pro version or whatever they call it.
2- you can’t progress through the game without actually spending $$ for more game money. As if they’re not getting enough money from the pro version and the constant ad cycling you physically can’t move on without buying more money? Ruined the game for me. Even going with the cheapest option for EVERYTHING I still ended in a point where it was going to make me buy money to move on so I just deleted the game.

All in all I wouldn’t waste my time with the game.

Developer Response ,

First and foremost, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about our game. We understand your frustration, and we apologize if your experience with our app hasn't been great.

We realize that frequent interruptions can be disruptive and we are sorry to hear that the ads have impacted your enjoyment of the game. We use ad revenue to support the free version of our game, but we're always looking to strike a balance where the gameplay is not overly interrupted. We're also currently working on diversifying our ad content to avoid repetitive ads. As for the 45-minute cooldown time, we designed it to pace the gameplay and increase anticipation for the next RPG segment. However, we understand that this might not work for everyone and we're considering ways to make this more flexible.

As for the issue about in-game purchases, we're sorry to hear that you felt compelled to spend money to progress. We aim to create an environment where players can advance through the game without mandatory purchases. We're continually working on the game balancing to make sure it’s challenging yet achievable without making purchases, and your feedback helps us tremendously in this regard.

We're committed to improving our game based on the feedback from players like you.

Once again, thank you for your detailed feedback. If you have any more thoughts or suggestions, we're always here to listen.

wasted potential

this game has amazing storylines (so far) and i’m so interested and would love to keep playing. i even bought the pro version so i could keep playing without having to wait. (5 dollars). that’s how much i liked this game.

but then….
there is no end to this game without spending money. i restarted like 20 times to try to keep going but i always ran out of money. the farthest i got was the regulator / prosecutor fine. fined 3 million dollars but i only have 2.6 million. (i made all the cheap choices by the way.) there is no way to acquire money like that so not sure where that money was supposed to come from (i even spent 10 gems on the 250,000 from the investor 😭😭😭still didn’t cut it)
if you look at the numbers, i would have to spend $40 to continue….yikes. i’m no game developer that’s for sure but showing ads on top of REQUIRING players to pay is so out of pocket 😭😭. pick one at least! or watch adds to acquire money / gems.
i’m surprised that this was not more thought out especially when the game is about creating a new game/ messenger app, social app whatever. (like you think they would know😭) i bet my game developer (in the game) would know that and he’s rated bad & 1/5 😭😭

okay but seriously i’m not trying to speak too badly because this game truly has so much potential and if the money issue ever gets fixed i’ll be the first one to play it.
