Fun, and so imaginative!

I don’t deny the issues from the previous reviews, but I do see progress with longer events and more energy available on the event maps themselves. It is also evident that from the pilot and early release that the game has gone through so much improvement and I applaud them, and what they should be applauded for, for continuing to improve and make the game better! Of course, I do attest that they should either make the obstacles more cheaper or make them more sparse, which is the most annoying for me. I want the critics to understand how difficult it is for people to make games, and if they are frustrated, why not for them to make games and try to make some money from it? I can’t wait to see what other events and other characters are introduced, even though that my personal favorite is Andi. I want to see more about his origins!

So much potential

There are so many great things about this game. I love the characters, the artwork, crafting, decorating, the story, completing quests. However, the events are impossible to complete without spending real money. I know people complain about the energy costs in a lot of games. I have played a lot of different games of this kind. This is one of the best, but absolutely the worst when it comes to the energy system. I have a max energy of 76. I use the in-game things to generate more, I watch all of the ads I can. I get up to maybe 400 energy. I chop down 150 energy in rocks and bushes only to find that the path is still blocked by another 150 energy. I clear that and collect ONE of the 12 items I need to complete ONE of the quests in the event. That is so frustrating and not fun at all. If I can only log in twice a day I cannot even complete ONE quest of a 2 day event. I made the mistake of spending real money on one. I don’t mind paying a little to support a good game. I logged in several times a day, watched tons of ads. Sixteen dollars got me a few more steps in, but not even close to completing the event. Please fix this this. It really could be a five star game if the energy system was reasonable. I will not spend any more now that I know it does not help. I work hard for my money and have a budget. I just threw away my my monthly “entertainment” money for a few rocks and bushes.

This Game Could Be Great!

However recently the developers created a special quest that cannot be completed without spending $25 after having spent $5. $30 to complete a 5 day quest is ridiculous. You see there are these rare tools you can collect. They take forever to save up for them. After depleting all of my special tools to get more energy, I come to a place in the quest where I cannot complete the quest without spending at least $25 to unlock a required piece. This had never happened before. Customer service responded they felt bad but basically too bad for me. After taking my money to play the quest they intentionally then made the event impossible to finish. Also customer service send they sent an apology gift but did not. I am sure because this was an intentional scam on their part. This WAS my favorite game. Now it’s deleted and they will get not a penny more from me. Nor will I ever play a game from this unethical developer again! Update, I foolishly gave this game another chance. They increased the energy, but, shortened the quest period. So same investment required but now more often. Additionally, their quests have twice crashed and reset. Then they don’t return what you used or money you spent on said quest. They give you a “compensation prize” that does not cover what was spent. I have never had to report a game to Apple for fraud before but these developers are literally committing fraud. DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME!
