Too Many Ads

This game is actually a lot of fun and can help ease time when bored. There are two problems that come with this game.
1. Way, way, way too many ads. Not short ads, but long ads. They have this trick in the first level where they ease you into the game and make it seems like an easy play, but level 2, it’s an ad every 30 seconds. Usually you can turn cellular data off for the game and avoid ads, just not get any power ups or multipliers. Unfortunately in this game, if you do this, the game will not work. A pop up comes us and prevents you from playing until you turn cell data back on or connect to a wifi network. This is cheap and a ridiculous ploy to get you to either pay them money to remove ads, or force you to play with them so they can get money for each ad. It’s frustrating and a nuisance.
2. Each level will introduce a new feature to the game that makes the game more enjoyable, but what they don’t tell you is that’s the only time it will be free. As soon as you progress to the next level, that new feature, it can only unlocked by watching yet another ad, or using gems.
It’s a fun game, but a lot of frustrating nuisances that prevents it from being a complete game.

Abusing of the ads and loss of info

Have been playing this for quite some time. I thought it was good. However, the constant ads was getting very annoying. Two steps on the game and boom! And ad. Yeah I get that you need it for the game to be free but it was almost every 5min an ad.

Yesterday I decided to pay to take off the ads and today I see that all my levels were deleted and I am now back to level 1. Also, started to lag a lot to the point of shooting me out.

Not really happy.

Quite fun, but with one major flaw

This game is rather fun and all, but the flaw that stops me from properly enjoying this game is that the amount of ads this game gives out is just absurd. Just about every 30 seconds there is an ad that last at least 15 seconds, making most of the time I spend on this game either waiting out ads or dismissing them. I know this is supposed to lure people towards buying an ad free experience, but the sheer amount of ads will make this game lose players instead of making money.

TURN PHONE ON AIRPLANE MODE

Issues- there are advertisements every 30 seconds, like clockwork. I finally broke down and bought the ad free version and, while the money was taken from my account, the ads are continuing to play every 30 seconds. On top of this, the ads aren’t just a one click on the x and done-they are 7 seconds, click the x, another page-7 seconds and click the x, another page-7 seconds and click the x, another page, 7 seconds and click the x. So it’s 4 pages of ads, all 7 seconds long. So you get to play for 30 seconds and then have over 30 seconds in ads. On top of all of this-the game only has 30 levels. Four ‘upgrades’ to the machine and after that, there are no other upgrades and after 30 level, no reason left to play. So basically I spent nearly $7 to play a game that I couldn’t play because of The ads and that you can finish in a couple of hours.

Pro-tip:want to play ad free? Turn your phone on airplane mode.

Fun but…

The game itself is really fun. You drive your little lawnmower around and clean up the grass. Very relaxing very fun. The problem is that in my first five minutes of playing there we’re 3 interruptions for ads. You’re happily mowing when suddenly you have to sit through a stupid video about fish eating each other. 15 seconds later you can click to skip which takes you to the ad title screen where you sit for another 15 seconds to let the little x appear and that takes you to the App Store to download the game I don’t want. Then we’re back to mowing. Really getting into it when 2 minutes later: another ad!!

Love the game but I’m sorry I can’t cope with that many ads

Addictive but hard to recommend

Unlike all the other reviewers, I paid the 2 bucks to turn off ads. And while this game is addictive it’s really hard to recommend. I finished all the levels, and the gameplay doesn’t change. Once you played the first level you’ve played all of them. The farm and factory features are not there. Sure the buildings appear once you get to the respective level requirements, but they don’t do anything.

summary: A not awful time waster for people with ADHD

Here is your review you won’t like it but has to be said

Major bug created from latest update instantly crashes app now game is unplayable

And the ads you are abusing the power of having ads in this game as there is way to many ads I counted them and the frequency of them every 60 second there is an ad and there is 3 ads jammed into the ad breaks and the skip and close ad buttons extremely way to small

The game is just not fun with this level of abuse in the ads I don’t even want to play it and when I see an ad I just forcefully close the app and don’t return I do however like these kind of games you have a great one here but like everyone else there is far to many ads and let’s talk about that I can live with a small ad banner in the bottom of the screen but timed ads that just show up heck no

You have the list of issues and annoyances now let’s see if you listen and correct these

Could be a fun time killer but…

So it’s sad that the game is actually a fun little time waster but the ads are terrible. It would be fine if the adds were only for extra upgrades where you could choose but nope. They appear pretty much every minute or two. I wouldn’t even mind the forced ads as much if it were just something small like going to another level but the fact that it’s every 1-2 minutes is annoying and makes me want to not play the game. Like I understand the developed need money but come on. This is just ridiculous for no offense a pretty low effort time killer app that have the same cheap style as hundreds of other cheap ad infested little time killer games that basically rule half of the App Store. It would be fine if you could disconnect from the internet but nope, the app doesn’t let you even though it’s clearly not a game you need internet for. Anyways solid time waster game but is brought down by the obnoxious amount of forced ads

You like ads?

Hey do you like ads. Because if you do this game is for you. You get 20 seconds gameplay 30 second ad 20 seconds gameplay 30 second ad. But no seriously these devs are going to shove the ads up your bumb. 20 seconds game here another ad. Their ads have ads and those ads have ads it’s like ad inception. They’ve got ads for their ads for their ads. The way the dev see it you shouldn’t be wasting your time playing games you should be using your quality time to watch more ads so they can make more money so their ads can have ads so they can make more money so they can try to push you into buying the ad free version but I bet you it has ads. And now I’m not kidding I literally timed it over and over and over and continually got 20 seconds gameplay and a 30 second add rinse and repeat. Worst game ever or should I call it a game? It’s just a built-in ad repeater.

Game is fun for those who like to play mindless games

As everyone else said, the ads are aggressive and could be a deal breaker if you don’t have a VPN. For me, the deal breaker is once you’ve upgraded your equipment to the max, the mowing takes longer to complete and what’s most annoying is the app glitches and closes unexpectedly. It’ll save the coins you have but not your progress which means you have to start the level all over from the beginning which can be really freaking overwhelming after all the work you already did. It happened once or twice before I got too annoyed and decided to just quit the game.

Update: Changed my rating to 1 star from 3 after deleting the game. I updated the game hoping that would fix the app crashes. It didn’t. So at this point the game is unplayable to me unless I want to repeat the same levels over and over without ever completing them.
