I have always loved games like virtual villages and played a lot of them. So I decided I would go back and replay them. First problem is the white line on iPhone to minimize the app. It blocks the messages telling you what a villager is doing. So I go look on forums and read reviews and this had been a known problem for at least 5 YEARS! And it still hasn’t been fixed. Then there is a ridiculous number of ads. And guess what? It also has been a problem for YEARS. I haven’t experienced any of the other problems people mentioned with lemurs or people dying overnight or even thought about spending money for lava stones because I haven’t gotten past an hour of playing. I have deleted it and restarted 3 times hoping it was a glitch and would fix the issue. No luck. If you have no plan to fix problems, then remove it from the App Store. All you are doing now is upsetting players and ruining your reputation. There are plenty of other free games I can play without this frustration. Don’t bother to reply to the review as you dont follow through on what you say. Very disappointing.
