Deleted within 30 mins. *2024-02-11, version 2.3.26* It has real potential but I couldn’t even properly test the game to see if I liked it enough to pay for due to the frequency of ads. It was maddening! ### 3/5 — Too much ads *2022-09-17, version 2.3.8* I would enjoy it if ther weren’t ads every 5 seconds ### 2/5 — Good game if it loads *2022-06-10, version 2.3.8* Fails to load properly again and again. Even after the first time I played there where to many adds. Fix this game to load fast and not to fail loading! ### 1/5 — Red bees *2022-06-06, version 2.3.8* Would give more starts because it’s a fun games but I can’t get more than one red bee. No matter how many yellow bees I bring to the upgrade hive it will only give me one red bee and then won’t let me use the upgrade hive again. So later levels when there’s an upgrade hive to make green bees I can’t because you need 3 red and I only have 1. Need to fix this! ### 1/5 — Paid for ads. Still pop up every 2 minutes *2022-06-01, version 2.3.8* I paid for ads. Guess what? I still see them! Ugh. ### 1/5 — Not loading *2022-05-27, version 2.3.6* When I open the game up it just closes and I can’t play it ### 1/5 — Ads *2022-05-17, version 2.3.6* I understand a free game has to make money, but this is a joke. Ads are on like every minute making the game unplayable and my phone is burning hot and draining my battery. To many ads. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even load *2022-05-05, version 2.3.6* Doesn’t even open up. Loads one screen then goes black. Iv uninstalled and reinstalled it..same thing. ### 1/5 — Ads almost every 30 seconds *2022-05-04, version 2.3.6* I started playing this today but there are ads every 30 seconds ### 1/5 — Can't even play. not because of ads *2022-04-23, version 2.3.6* Bro u open the app then the screen turns black and after a second it closes ### 1/5 — Can’t play *2022-04-07, version 2.3.6* When I downloaded the game i went on it and it kicked me out I tried again but it didn’t work so how do i play ### 1/5 — Good game, too many ads *2022-02-20* It’s a simple, time killer tycoon game that’s honestly enjoyable but there’s WAYYYY too many ads. Infact there’s so many ads it’s faster too close the game and open it back up instead of sitting through them every time one pops up. Free too play mobile games need too quit doing forced ads and start doing choice ads. Giving the player the option too watch an ad for a worth while reward would be mutually beneficial too everyone and I would actually WATCH them. That’s my Ted talk thx ### 3/5 — Ripoff *2022-02-02, version 2.3.6* So i played this game its just a ripoff of the roblox game bee swarm simulator ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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. ### 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. ### 1/5 — It took maybe a minute. *2024-04-07, version 2.3.26* I played for a solid minute, maybe minute and a half before being asked to rate. It was an insufficient amount of time of playing before you asked. ### 1/5 — Too much adds *2024-04-01, version 2.3.26* Too much adds I don’t recommend it ### 1/5 — Ads! *2022-07-22, version 2.3.8* Ads every 15 seconds makes an otherwise fun game completely unplayable. Cannot play game without access to WiFi. Game not innovative enough to justify paying >£2 to remove ads. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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 ### 5/5 — Love the game + minor suggestions *2022-10-17* Could you move the island numbering banner to a better location in each stage? And add a female / a bot / even a polar bear character? I mean to have a bit more characters would make it perfect. ### 5/5 — To much adds *2022-06-05, version 2.3.8* I love playing this game but I can’t even move without having so much adds pop up it ruins the fun of the game honestly and u can’t play offline ether and I find that stupid because the adds are way to much ### 5/5 — Paid for no ads and packet with a fire bee and boosters *2021-11-08* I paid for a packet with boosters and the fire bee and had to reinstall MY game and now no fire bee and also paid for no ads and still getting ads! And why do you not have an in game support button for this! ### 5/5 — Excellent *2021-10-08, version 2.3.1* Omg I never played this game before and I am addicted to this game and you get a lot of stuff peace! ### 5/5 — Great game I really enjoyed every second I played I’ve put in 500+ hours *2021-08-21* This game is great and encourages you to protect nature and bees. I highly recommend this game to everyone else. I hope you have as much fun as I did. ### 5/5 — Very fun *2021-07-30* This game is like actually good. I was skeptical because the first review said no adds but that’s actually true. Some of the levels/area’s repeat but I don’t mind. I think the only think I’d change is how fast the flowers regrow but that’s it. I highly recommend. ### 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. ### 4/5 — Caution *2024-03-25, version 2.3.26* You can only exchange the yellow bees on the first island, I had to uninstall and reinstall the game so I could get the right exchange over. Maybe have the option to exchange all the different bees at the boxes ### 4/5 — pretty good game but a bit laggy *2022-07-03, version 2.3.8* so I have upgraded my bees up to level52 but it is kinda laggy so could you please fix this. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
