  • Unfair advantage right out of the gate.

    The fact that the first purchase you must make right away is a confectionist for 750 dollars a week with only 1000 dollars in cash is so stupid. I shouldn’t have to use my gems at all to raise money. The fact that you can make in app purchases to buy more gems should tell you that this game company just wants to steal your money. I should have other means to make money in the game before I hire such an expensive person. Then once you get going you are sending people into debt week after week. That’s not how real business’ work. If you start a business and your first idea is to go into debt you’ve failed as a business. Figure out some new way to make money without gems and then maybe I’ll consider playing again. Terrible game.

  • Confusing but funnn

    Love it a little confusing at first but def a fav game
  • How do you work this?

    I’ve played about 10 minutes and I click hire buttons - they don’t hire. I click set prices - they done set. There is no tutorial, I don’t know what I’m doing at all. Terrible. Thought I’d have found a good game.
  • Money Grab

    This game is almost impossible to beat unless you spend money on gems. I've spent over 2 hours trying different approaches in order to get ahead, but it's been a waste of time. I love the game Hobo Capitalist by the same developer, but this game is such a disappointment. There are too many factors that affect your progress negatively, and you HAVE TO spend gems just to stay afloat. I love playing strategy games to challenge my IQ, BUT THIS GAME WANTS TO CHALLENGE MY WALLET.

    Example:
    In the guide, they say you can pay $1000 for 700 leads, which can equal to 70 sales. If you’re selling at max price ($3.99) x 70 sales, that equals $280.
    YOU WANT ME TO PAY $1000 TO MAKE A $280 PROFIT?

    PLEASE FIX THIS GAME. This game would be so much fun if it wasn’t an obvious cash grab.

  • Solid game

    I really enjoyed it I have played most of this developer’s games, have loved them all, good job!
  • Great

    Great
  • It’s actually good

    I was wondering if it was as good as it looked from the front page, and yet it is! I do recommend this game if you’re looking for a bit of difficulty.
  • Well…

    The game is difficult to pick up. None of the menus are clearly labeled. The tutorial is both forced and I helpful. There’s zero noise. No sound effects, no music, nothing. It’s eerily silent the whole time. Most upgrades / purchases don’t clearly state what they affect. There’s no way to fire employees. And the scaling is completely nonsense - as in there’s no reason to improve your candy’s stats in order to drive up sales when you can hire someone that sells 1000 units for far less than you make selling the candy.

    The game could definitely be really fun to play. But, I feel like the game game needs some love that it just isn’t getting.

    Furthermore. I threw the devs $5 so I could completely max out my factory - just to see if there was anything worth while in buying out the competition or what have you. And the transaction went through but no gems. I don’t mind too much as I usually tend to throw the game devs a few bucks if I think the game has potential or if I really enjoy it. But, seriously? That’s just insult to injury.

    I don’t think you shouldn’t download it. Just don’t expect an intuitive game you can pick up In a few minutes. It’s not that kind of game.

    P.s devs, I want my $5 back

    Developer Response

    Hey there, I believe we’ve emailed discussing the game and the issue with your gems. If you have any further questions on how to refund your purchase, let me know. Thanks for the review and feedback! Jon
  • Game Mechanics Don’t Work

    I’m tapping different buttons and 90% of them don’t do anything. The app has zero reaction. For example, I can add sweeteners to my recipe but nothing else, no flavor or natural ingredients. I can’t advance because I cannot play. Is there a bug that was released? I just downloaded the game for the first time yesterday. I hope it gets fixed soon!

  • Maybe Add More Tutorials?

    The tutorials didn’t help me at all. I kept having to reset only to plunge into debt. I hired on confectioner, set my candy at a reasonable price, upgraded a few things that only cost a few cents, and every time I plunged into debt right away. It would be great if there was a walk through tutorial (a better one) that helps you out in the beginning so you don’t go into debt when you hit “next week”.
