### 2/5 — Be better with out all the adds

*2025-01-14, version 2.3.28*

Can’t even play off line witch is stupid as the only reason for this game to be on line is for the adds

### 1/5 — Have to have Internet to play🤬🤷‍♂️🤬

*2024-09-24, version 2.3.28*

No thanks. I’m good on this game. I just deleted it. I don’t always have Wi-Fi on my phone and you have to have Internet just to play this game and it’s non-multiplayer. I deleted it. The reason you have to have Internet to play this game so they can force all the ads on you.

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2024-08-06, version 2.3.28*

I counted the time in between ads… 45 seconds. 45 SECONDS! That’s insanity. Definitely ruins the game.

### 1/5 — More ads than game play

*2024-08-05, version 2.3.28*

There’s zero instruction on the goal of the game, and every 24 seconds or so it cuts to another ad in the middle of game play. No rhyme or reason to it. Deleted.

### 5/5 — They have no ads

*2024-06-26, version 2.3.28*

We know add is good because why is no ads because bad dad
We know about ads

### 1/5 — Holy f!

*2024-06-19, version 2.3.28*

The ads make this game unplayable. The sheer number of forced at is making me uninstall.

### 1/5 — Pay for no ads, still get ads

*2024-06-04, version 2.3.26*

What’s the point of paying if you’re still going to show ads. Please keep in mind, you’re in a place with no reception, you can’t play the game. It requires constant internet connection. Battery on an iPhone XR also gets used up very quickly. Cool concept and art design, but the negatives outweigh the positives.

### 1/5 — To many random adds

*2024-05-04, version 2.3.26*

Got a random add the second time I unloaded. Uninstalled

### 1/5 — So Much Potential, So Many Ads.

*2024-04-11, version 2.3.26*

The amount of advertisements they’ve put into this game only to increase their profits is ungodly. Voodoo has gone down HILL. I’d rather play hide the baby carrot with uncle touchy.

### 4/5 — The ads.

*2024-04-08*

Overall the game is so much fun I downloaded the other day and play mostly just to relax. But most of the ads you can’t get out of they freeze and won’t let you click out of them so you have to clear the game all together. Then go back in and recollect all the flowers. Most likely I’ll get upset and delete the game but if they could fix it. The game would be amazing!!! Just fix whatever bug it is. No it’s not my phone i play games like this all the time and it doesn’t do this.
