Stop complaining about the Ads

“Oh there’s too many ads I can’t play the ads take more time to see than gameplay” Welcome to mobile games, enjoy your stay dude. Most games FORCE you to watch ads after doing something, in this game you have to open chests which spawn randomly, so sometimes you don’t even get them that much, not that they’re essential anyway. and on top of that only sometimes it makes you watch ads. You’re probably LUCKY there’s not more ads in this game. You can watch an ad to spin the wheel, or you.. uh.. Yep, that’s it. Those are basically the two ways you can watch ads in this game. The main game doesn’t progress that slowly once you know what you’re doing, and the game is a little boring I do admit, but I could not find a game that’s not flooded with ads, intrusive or not. This game is one of the rare games with smaller amounts of ads. Again, STOP COMPLAINING. It could be worse. Also I don’t know why it’s 12+ rated, there’s nothing inappropriate in this game, parents reading this. Have a blessed day everyone.

Too many ads

GET RID OF SO MANY ADS!!!!!!!!! Played this game for almost two years straight without missing a day to get the daily bonuses. This game was fun and I was determined to get to the last ocean. However I’m seriously considering deleting this game now. Every other minute is an ad. Get a box of cash? Ad. Figured I’d use the multiplier since I had to watch an ad anyway. Well I watched an ad to multiply my money and then watched an ad to collect. Then I beat a daily goal for the current event. Another add just to collect the rewards for that. I watched three ads in the first 3 minutes of playing. Also I’m curious how the game mechanics work. I came back after my boat was full and had $33undillion or however it’s spelled. But the game froze before I could watch and ad an multiply. So it force closes and I reopened it. It still said I was gone for the full time but now my amount was $20und, and it froze again. Repeat and came back to only $11und. What gives?

Edit: Cut to today which is a year later and the freezing issue is still around. I click on an ad and the whole app freezes. Then shuts off. Then I lose whatever rewards I was on. Making the game unplayable

Very great and I love it because… it’s really

Lot of ads, but really sad of it because when you try to spend the wheel, it gives you gems, but you have to spin it one day but if you want to you have to watch an ad a 30 second ad that’s the thing I don’t like about it the thing that I like about it it’s very satisfying. The fish are simple to catch and you don’t have to spend a lot a lot of money on stuff only just stuff and it’s really for kids not to lie. It’s really trusting you. It’s really good so why can’t they fix it though cause there’s some lagging problems like I’m AFK only gives me one dollar per minute that I don’t like about it too, but I really like that. It has good sound effect I like the music and it really feels like I’m at beach, but I’m not really good really good game satisfying and very artificial intelligence of making this game. They’re really good creators. Please support me and I will see you guys next time no no no no actually artificial it is artificial. I’m just kidding, but I’ll see you guys in a couple bit.

Games good but…

The game itself is good, not the best at keeping you entertained, it’s good for when your bored and you keep swapping between games but when I actually get into the game there’s way to many adverts. Like it’s outrageously and diabolicaly disgusting on how many there are. Watching these adverts every 2 minutes (not joking… every 2 minutes) makes me want to jab my finger in my sockets and pull out my eyes. I wouldn’t even need to do that because I would of rotted to oblivion by the time the tsunamis of adverts are over. Sort 👏 it 👏 out 👏 . Maybe try and make the game better and make more people play instead of making us players watch more adverts because of YOUR GAMES player deficiency.

Dear Creator, listen to your reviews

Early on in this game, you are given a prompt to rate the game, with an animated character who asks if you enjoy their game, I would assume this is the creator. So it’s pretty odd that you STILL haven’t listened to the fans of your game who are leaving reviews. It seems like the majority of the reviews are addressing this same issue. Of course I’m talking about the ads. I’m fine with ads for rewards and I watch them often for this game. But you NEED a cooldown before a forced ad can be shown, after I’ve chosen to watch one. The fact that there’s no ad cooldown, a very common mechanic in games that have ads, is downright preposterous. If I voluntarily watch a “30 second” ad, reset a 5 minute timer before you can force me to watch an ad for no reward. As people are saying, this garbage has made the game unplayable. Which is such a shame because the art is gorgeous and the mechanics are simple and fun. The only negative thing about this game is the forced ads with no ad cooldown. Seriously, what were you thinking? An ad cooldown is a standard feature that most games with ads have, as it keeps the game playable while still allowing you to make your money off of ads. Until you listen to the reviews that YOU asked for in-game, I’ll be playing on airplane mode and you won’t get a cent of ad revenue from me. This game is unplayable otherwise.

It’s great but please stop the freezing problem

I think this game is a blast and I’ve really enjoyed playing it along with enjoying myself during the events. This game is really fleshed out with a lot to do and a fun progression system and a lot of unlockables. However, this game also needs some improvements. For anyone who is just starting out, be warned there are ads. They weren’t really apparent but one day I was playing and all of a sudden anytime I opened a package, or a gem chest, I was forced to watch an ad. It had never happened before but it became very frustrating very fast so I gave up and begrudgingly paid for no ads. The only current prominent problem I’ve been running into since is constant freezing when I start up the game, it hasn’t been much of an issue besides being a minor inconvenience to close out the app and then reopen it. However I’ve recently come to realize that it has been robbing me of certain achievement rewards for the event due to freezing right after I claimed them, which has left me quite disheartened as there’s no way to reclaim those lost rewards. I write this review because I wish for the team behind the game to please fix this issue, as I wish to continue playing this game yet these freezing issues are making me feel less and less motivated to play knowing that all my effort might again end in vain.

Great game, all good fun. However..

This is a fun game, one that I have had for such a long time, and a game that I almost never miss a day of the daily login of. I like the items that you can equip to give you boosts, I like the crew members that you can unlock, and basically everything else! However, I’ve noticed something with the daily login. Maybe it’s just me, but I feel that as you get a longer and longer login streak, you should get more gems or other stuff that’s hard to get. Then again, I’m someone that, as of the day I am writing this on, has a daily login streak of 1,235 days in a row. I guess if you save up your gems for a long while, they do add up, but with how quickly some of the item upgrades become available to you and how expensive they get, along with how expensive some of the crew upgrades can be, it feels a bit unbalanced. But then again, maybe that’s just me. Other than that, this is a really fun game!

I would give it 10 stars if it would allow me to nuffsaid

I love this game so much I used to play it all the time on my mums phone when I was younger and playing it again now brought a tear to my eye it hasn’t changed at all it’s still the same as it was back then and I couldn’t be more happy I love it but the one thing I don’t like is that if you choose to trace to collect mass amounts of fish and money then it tends to really hurt your finger overtime but apart from that it’s a great game and it is my favourite game to help pass time especially when waiting at the dr

Love this game

Totally love this game, becomes very addictive and is enjoyable to play, my only complaint is the ads, I don’t mind watching them to earn stuff but I keep getting the same ad over and over for a game on squeezing pus and spots and it’s disgusting to watch you can’t skip it and the ad breaks seem to come more and more frequently the more you play, if I am going to be forced to watch ads at least make them watchable else I am going to be deleting. You can pay to remove the ads but feel it’s a little expensive.
