Leave a Review Idle Outpost
Fun, but a cash grab
This game is pretty good, I have been playing it for a while, leveled up significantly, gotten myself into an end-game position (albeit is kinda rare with an idle game) however my major qualm about this game is the benefit of watching ads is minimal, the gems feel extremely expensive for purchase. If you are the kind of person that pays for iPhone games, expect a hefty bill for this game for what seems like almost nothing significant. It can be played without spending the money, but they will show you pricing options every chance they can.
One thing that really annoys me is that during the games weekly events, it will MAKE you look at different Payment options, and also continue to push a “quasi-tutorial” that is intrusive to my play style. It will make me use in game currency to show me how to purchase a manager during events, even though I have been playing this game for almost a year now and am familiar with the gameplay.
Decent game, worth trying for a little if you’re bored, not worth paying money to in my opinion. If the prices were cheaper I’d be so much more inclined, but almost everything is 10$ or more.Show lessStuck.
I played this game a while back, so much so that I got to the end of all of the outposts they had at the time. After waiting on new “levels” for a while I decided to delete it. Just recently came across it again and thought I would download it to see if things had changed. I reloaded my purchases from the settings but because of that I can’t get past where you get the shovel. When I went on the expedition and dug up a weapon that was so much worse than I had in my previous play through, I can’t drop it. When I try to equip it, it asks if I’m sure since it’s worse than what I already have equipped…that’s where the trouble happens. The game freezes up like it doesn’t know what to do. I’ve tried deleting the game and reloading it but it starts right back at equipping the weapon. I really enjoy this game so please help me out here.Show lessSome problems
I will say that I have been playing this game a lot for the last week or so. Many times I have left the app and came back later and my idle earnings didn’t happen. Sometimes even within the app when I am digging/looting I do not earn idle money. Also the challenges feel stacked against you to push you to buy. VERY VERY heavy ad watch pushing and purchase to win. Many items they give in the purchases will run ineffective in an amount of time that’s isn’t worth the value of the item. And if you want me to watch more ads, you need to make the amount of money I get from it worth more. Sometimes I feel like the value you offer is a joke compared to the amount that I currently have/rate I’m earning.
ALSO IF YOU DO HAVE ME WATCH AN AD, STOP MAKING ME WATCH A 15-25 SECOND LOOP OF THE SAME THING.
If I had more of a chance to compete without having to purchase and watch like 20 ads in certain cases I’d say the game would be closer to 4 star instead of 2 star.Show less
