Deceptive In-App purchases
Got this as a fun game for my kid to have a good time with while he’s feeling poorly. The game is almost impossible to use in its downloaded state, ads interrupt at almost every available opportunity.
And not short ads, long unskippable, multi-stage ads. Ugh. FINE! I’ll pay the fairly hefty £5.99 in-app purchase to unlock characters and “REMOVE ADS”…
Unfortunately this does not remove ads entirely and every opportunity the app gets it’s still pushing more ads: Want to continue? Why not watch some ads. Want a 2x multiplier for your score. Why not watch some ads. EVERY interstitial button is heavily highlighted and then in tiny letters, there it is, “watch ads”. Massively deceptive and almost unusable by a child without encountering advertising. DECEPTIVE!

Would give more..
First of all, you guys said you have a subscription which unlocks all the characters and has removed all non-optional ads but you guys still have some ads which interrupt the entire game player make me lose. You should add all of this in the second update. You should also have a premium subscription which removes every ad and has everything for free. If you guys draw this then I will say this game is gold.

Ads continue after paid version
Please remove the ads! I paid for the app to not receive ads
Still ads after purchasing full app
There still ads that pop up after purchasing the paid app.

It’s the best game in the world
Buyer beware, ads persist even after purchase
Like many people who purchased this game, I bought it for my toddler who loves Pocoyo. I gladly paid the modest fee to remove ads from the game only to find out that after each round you cannot proceed without clicking the screen which is littered with “optional” ads in colorful boxes that a child wouldn’t be able to distinguish from the proper way to proceed. The end result is either a frustrated little boy or an inadvertent return to the App Store. Super deceiving considering the game’s intended audience. Would love to request a refund.

Love it
I like that you can like bump in to the other cars and my brother download this game cause he loves cars so much so I thought that I could download this game! So I down load this game and we loved it and it cost no money got us and I have no idea why it cost money for you guys now I feel bad that you guys need to cost money for you.

Advertising despite paying
The game overall is fun. However, despite paying for the full version and no ads , my kids STILL GET ADS! It’s really annoying!
Uma bosta
Uma bosta, propaganda a cada 1 minuto! A criança não consegue jogar!
