To the game developer.
Like any game, this one makes you watch ad for boosters when you take home your rewards. Then you can watch an ad to multiply your rewards. You can instead click on next, but even THEN you still have to watch an ad, there should only be an ad after your attack if your multiplying your reward I read other reviews, and it would have made a lot of reviews higher (including this one) which probably would have raised the average rating By 0.3. Or maybe there could only be an ad after each game every 5 or 10 times you attack a players base. People would still be unhappy though.

You will spend more time watching ads than playing
I’ll start off with I do really enjoy this game. I haven’t enjoyed a game so much since Among Us. But the ads between EVERY single round are painfully annoying and long and you have to click like 3 different exits to exit out and get back to the game. I’m not complaining about the ads you watch to get a free boost but it’s the ads after every single round 15- 30 seconds between every single game ( that are less than a minute) it’s too much. Unfortunately, as much as I loved the game I realized I was watching ads more than playing and it’s not even worth it nor will I be paying anything . And for that I am giving one star rating because I think it’s important to understand even if you have a great game it won’t matter when it boils down to a ridiculous amount of advertisements and marketing being shoved down your throat .
Plus, it’s one of THOSE games that has a TON of male avatars to choose from for your account but only 2 or 3 female avatars to choose from . Not a big deal cause who cares but get tired of that b s after a while .

Normal ad overloaded game please stop the madness
I am so tired of trying games where they get you involved and you pass a few levels and boom ads all the time. Finish a level select not to double your rewards by watching and select “next”. Guess what you get 1x rewards but you also are forced to watch an ad. Same ol’ garbage. Allow a play not to watch an ad and stop forcing ads. You offer the chance to skip the bonus multiplier but still shove an ad down my throat. Deleted.
Update: Developer responded with standard template response. Purchases don’t permanently removes ads just X number of games. How about not be greedy and if your game is worth it people will spend money on it. You’re lazy and don’t want to actually know what people think of your game. If you wanted true results you’d dial back the ads A LOT and allow the users decide.
You have the number of ads so high the user watches more ads than plays the game. Each level takes less than 20 seconds to complete and then you are forced to watch 30-45 seconds of ads. Rethink it.

We understand ads can be intrusive, but they're necessary to support our game. The good news is that any purchase in the game removes all mandatory ads. We believe this is a fair way to improve the experience and support the development of the game. Thank you!
Ads Only
Update - newest update REQUIRES that you allow internet access for battles so the developer can dump continuous ads at you. I played regularly when that wasn’t the case. I’m deleting it now because of this.
Absolutely terrible. If you allow the game to access the Internet, every time you play a game you end up with ads that cannot be dismissed. The only way to end the ad is to quit the app. Just click bait, nothing more. If you turn off the Internet so the game cannot access it, then many of the features of the game do not work. Update: with the most recent update to the app, it crashes much less often. That’s a good thing. However, people were obviously not spending enough money in the app so they added “power-ups” that have to be purchased. They’ve adjusted some of the levels so that it’s impossible to win without a power-up. They also pop-up the purchase request at the beginning of every fight and often in the middle of one. As an added question - why do they need your location data? Turn that off immediately!!! Great job with the latest update. It now freezes at once every 10 minutes or so.

Hey and thanks for your feedback. I understand the current amount of ads can be frustrating for some players. If you like the game, I suggest you check our optional purchases that remove ads for a very reduced price. We would appreciate your support!
Latest update means more ads
So this game was fun. Now it’s just ads ads ads. :( Before this latest update, the game arena was set up in 2 stages. First stage had to be beaten before the second stage. Then the ad would play. Now the first stage is gone, and the arena is half the size meaning the time between ads is half, the fun has been sucked out of it. So the company just doubled their ad revenue by screwing up the gameplay. So annoying, I would play this game for ages the original way, the time between ads was perfect. I get you need to make money from the game, but I don’t see any new arenas / layouts added to warrant needing to reduce the gameplay by half. I so wanted new layouts and ways my mobs could get through the arena. Disappointed there’s no new layouts & the previous layouts have reduced by half. Very disappointed. This used to be my go to game. Probably uninstall now.

Ads takeaway from gameplay
I don’t mind watching ads. Even if it’s a “free” app. I get that revenue pays the people that make the game. BUT, But, but….this is a CRAZY volume of ads. An ABSURD amount of ads. The ads, while not horribly offensive, sometimes aren’t things I’d prefer our kid to see. Too many questions I don’t want to answer. They’re the type of ads that tricks you into watching more ads/different parts of the same ad. Like…blue bar meanders its way across the bottom of the screen…you see a fast forward symbol on the top left and click it to “fast forward” and it takes you to the App Store to download it…you go back to the other screen to resume the ad…blue bar completes its journey…nothing happens for a few seconds…you impatiently push the screen…it takes you to the App Store…you exit and go back…the tiniest “x” you’ve ever seen pops up on the right…but you can’t click it because 1. Your finger is too big and 2. You need to wait for a little circle to make its way around the x. But the game is shockingly ADdicting… I’ll see myself out.

Some glitches, fun otherwise though!
This game is a lot of fun. I love the Paper Bag character, and all the different combinations you can create to make the strongest team. But, there are a few glitches I would like addressed. 1. I have been claiming the daily awards every day, and whenever there is coin reward I never receive it. I am on week 3, day 5 (I think?). Today I was supposed to gain 80,000 coins and never did. Yesterday it was around 120,000 coins, which means I am owed 200,000 coins, and potentially thousands more depending on how long this glitch has been happening. It is a little discouraging especially when I need it to upgrade my mobs. 2. Idk if it is intentional, but when my base gets attacked it shows it *after* my first battle. That battle usually offers a shield. It would make more sense if it showed who attacked you *before* your battle to maximize the shields you get. 3. I also find it a little weird when the special events (like the gold rush, or star dust one) do not let you do anything until you have gained your reward. Dunno if it’s intentional, but it’s something haha. Overall, really like the game, but would like my gold lol.

Hey and thanks for your super detailed feedback! It's very helpful to guide our decision making. Let me respond to your items one by one: Coin rewards: This sounds like a bug and it's super likely that our engineering team has fixed it since then. Would you mind trying again and let us know if it is still happening? Attacks received: This is a known issue and we have made big improvements to it in the recent versions. A complete fix is hard because we would need to wait for the response from the server before allowing you to play, and this can take too long especially when connection isn't that great. Thanks again for your feedback and we will keep working to earn the fourth and fifth stars!
Ads.. play to win.. so poor
I really gave this game a chance, and I mean for a good month.. was a fun time waster in the beginning. Then the ads got worse. Long, took me to websites, inappropriate ads being played. My iPhone became extremely overheated especially with the millions of ads!! I tried to understand as in order to run, developers need the ads to make money. So I bought the 1x month pass with no ads. For a brief period I was actually enjoying it more. No interruptions and you can choose to watch an ad for some extra blocks/coins. I could live with that. I was progressing well in the game, won a good amount but lost some too, as a game should be. There was now a recent update that updated matching you with different bases, I find it now incredibly difficult. Where once I was winning most of the time, I now have a win-lose ratio of 1-9 at best. I’m now being matched up to players where the mobs and champions are 10-15 levels higher than me. Only way to upgrade my mobs is through coins. You only get coins through winning, which I’m barely doing. I feel as if the only way I can progress is by paying for passes which provide boosters and multipliers!! You guys are making it impossible to enjoy this game. Seriously considering deleting the app now unless there is an improvement soon.

Great game but how do spend your money
Great game with normal ads. You get heaps of money from the multiplier but you are limited to spend to level up your mob. Because you can’t level up you lose more games because your opponent is 5 to 6 levels higher. Very frustrating.
P.s stop advertising to purchase more coins (I have $2m) because you can’t spend it.

Used to be fun….
The game used to be super fun to play. You competed against other players whose chosen mob was a similar level as yours. Over the past month or so, more than half the opponents I compete against have a mob 7 levels above mine. Not only are they are more powerful and/or faster mob, but generally the enemy mob has things that boost their abilities (cannons that are faster than is available to you, cannons that shoot giant mobs, stronger mobs, little maps that are way more advantageous to them, etc). So they’re already a higher level and now they have boosts. I just attempted to play probably 10 matches and all of them were against mobs 5+ levels above mine and I could only win a couple. What’s the point of playing if you can’t ever win a match and there’s no way around that because as you level up your mobs, they just pit you against even higher leveled mobs?
Also, occasionally the enemy mobs will glitch through walls and blocks and you don’t notice until you end up losing because they reach your line. It’s getting a bit ridiculous.
