Progression gets tough.

This is a very fun game but after a while it is really hard to upgrade. The only way you can get the gems to upgrade more is to either buy them or watch ads, and having to watch 5-10 ads just for an upgrade isn’t really fun. This really ruins the fun. If this gets fixed then I would definitely download this game again. It is still fun.

Landslide feature

Its an overall okay game.. but the landslide feature completely ruins the game for me. Its very inconsistent. For example, i could bounce off an object and be in the air for about 2-3 seconds and never see any sign of the landslide.. and other time i bounce off it and get hit by it immediately. They need to make it a consistent thing and not so random.

Money hogs >:(

So let me just say. This game is garbage it is fun at first yes. But once you get far enough in upgrades you need to use gems. About every 5 levels for an object for “the boulder” you need to use gems to upgrade more. Which I feel is stupid also gems are supper hard to get you can only get them with money or by adds and the adds are 30 seconds long and only give you about 3 or 4 if your lucky. Past that subject you also have the boulder. The boulder is the thing that the dude rides in. And so you can only unlock 3 of the slots for free. Yes I know the adds show you have 6 but that is a stupid lie you only have 4. But the 4 slot you need to pay 5 dollars for it. 5 DOLLARS. I know it is stupid the people how made this game are money hogs because the only “easy” way to get good progress in the game is by wasting 15+ to become “pro” and actually get to the second level.

Horrendous ads and attempted forced purchase

Sooooooooo many intrusive ads that interrupt any fun had past the first few games played. Ads are not so bad the first few games, but then become a bad, like 3 ads after each play bad.

Then after a few upgrades the game forces you to purchase special game currency to upgrade any farther, it becomes impossible to spend the regular game currently that you earn playing the game.

This game was made for the sole purpose of milking people with poor impulse control.

Entertainment Bundle

Starting off I thought it would be a very simple game, but it is jam packed with very interesting and fun mechanics such as abilities and weapons you can upgrade. It is a breath of fresh air in recent phone apps as it is not cluster packed with ads and has a ton of replayabilty value. 10/10 Would Recommend

Very sure most of these reviews are bots

The game itself is super fun, but they completely ruin it by forcing you to stop leveling using gold and level using gems in order to go back to leveling with gold. Some of them are 5 gems, 6 gems, 12 gems but some are 46 gems. The only way to get gems is to complete achievements(which are tedious and the amount needed to complete them goes up exponentially) or to buy them for outrageous prices. These gems are needed to progress through the levels, however the only other way to get them besides the two ways already mentioned is to progress through the levels so it doesn’t even matter. If the developers read this, please, make it optional to upgrade with gems, not mandatory.

Starts off good but immediately becomes a cash grab

I had high hopes for this game and I had fun for the first ten minutes until it gets to a point where it suddenly changes from using coins to upgrade thing to using gems and you cant get gems any way other than watching ads or progressing through the game. By the point that the upgrades change from costing coins, to gems, you will have 4 gems but some of the upgrades will cost 5. But there’s a point on the map where it’s “supposed” to give you that one gem you need, so you can upgrade but, once you reach it, you don’t get the gem that was marked on the map even though it said you would. So this game tries to make you feel like you’re so close to getting that gem but in reality, you aren’t getting that gem. This would’ve been a great game if it wasn’t a cheap cash grab.

Why is pink fields so hard to beat without buying in

I have played this game since it came out and I have been stuck on the 4th level “Pink Fields” since I downloaded the game.

I have tried every configuration on weapons and upgrades are nearly maxed I’m sure. Weapons are maxed out. I don’t see the purpose of buying an in-app purchase just to defeat the game. If that is how you have programmed the game it’s a great marketing tool, but it isn’t satisfying being stuck on the same level constantly.

Great game with paywall

This game is addicting and a great ways pass my time while at work. However there is definitely a pay wall system that definitely slows you down as you’re essentially working against yourself to progress through the game. I also find myself wanting to watch ads at my own discretion to help improve rather than being forced to do so

Ads

Great game. Love it but stop with all the adds. If we want better stuff we will have to buy it. No need for ads. But love the game, challenging and fun.
