I’ve emailed support but got nothing back. When the game crashes I loose either the cash or gems I have spent on the auction! I then have to reboot the game and I don’t have any of the items I’ve won? Pretty awful **Developer response:** Hi, ReckGaff. We’re really sorry about the crashes. We understand how frustrating this is. Could you please share your ticket number so we can locate your request and follow up to help resolve this as soon as possible? ### 2/5 — So many bugs *2026-03-28* As much as I enjoy this game , it honestly won't even let me play anymore. I had bought a pack of gems and since then I feel it's ate my gems up. I'll go to an auction get all this great stuff and by the next page it'll sit and buffer, making you close the app. When you do this you lose everything you just bought at that auction. Everytime this happens if I used power ups or gems they're STILL being taken from me even though I'm not receiving anything. I had tried reaching out to the game makers but of course no response was provided. As fun as this game is I will be looking for an app with way less bugs and that'll actually let me play. **Developer response:** Hi, Sarj23. We’re really sorry to hear about the freezes and loss of items and gems. We understand how frustrating this is. Could you please confirm your ticket number so we can locate your request and follow up properly? We want to help resolve this as soon as possible. ### 4/5 — Definitely still needs some work *2026-03-18* If you don’t give it enough time to load before clicking next it will indefinitely freeze until you close and reopen it and some of your energy is gone that you used ### 2/5 — Meh *2026-02-14* Freezing all the time but ok other then that **Developer response:** Hello, Fred! We apologize for the inconvenience. Please contact us through the support button in the in-game settings with more details about the issues you're experiencing. We'll investigate and work to resolve them promptly. Thank you for your patience! ### 4/5 — Good game *2026-01-30* Been playing this game religiously for a while now and really enjoying the new update, made the game so much smoother and the interfaces are good, i just feel like after this new update the amount of adverts now are starting to make it abit unplayable they come up so often now i feel as if i want to carry on playing i got to buy the no ads i know its only £4 but i dont know seems abit forced apon me as i do like the game ### 1/5 — This game is broken and a waste of time *2025-08-06* This game is horrible. Full of bugs, all the items are the same almost every auction. The second you think you’re making progress, the exact same situation happens multiple more times. Trying to upgrade the city is an impossible task, literally. My phone crashes every time I try to level up a building, so now my game is frozen at my current progress state. Not to mention it cost WAY more money to upgrade than the game says. I spent so much time in this game, which is why I’m even reviewing it. Don’t waste your time on this game, it’s broken. **Developer response:** Hello, Joebor927! We apologize for the inconvenience. Please contact us through the support button in the in-game settings with more details about the issues you're experiencing. We'll investigate and work to resolve them promptly. Thank you for your patience! ### 2/5 — Деньги *2025-08-05* Если закончились игровые деньги, то игра в дальнейшем времени бессмысленна….только бесплатные гемы, здания (если они есть) которые приносят «копейки» или донат. **Developer response:** Здравствуйте, X_DanTar_X. Вы можете заработать больше денег в магазине, просматривая рекламу, продавая предметы или посещая свои арендные дома. Это поможет продолжить игру без доната. ### 2/5 — Glitches galore *2025-08-05* Game is fun. But the further you get the worse it gets. Freezes glitches very very slow in loading. The ads never freeze but the games does. Restarted 5 times in 12 minutes. **Developer response:** Hello, wprtc! We apologize for the inconvenience. Please contact us through the support button in the in-game settings with more details about the issues you're experiencing. We'll investigate and work to resolve them promptly. Thank you for your patience! ### 4/5 — Great Game *2025-07-24* The game is really fun and I enjoy playing it. Progression is smooth and engaging, and collecting everything is fun. However, when I make building upgrades, it takes a ton more money than it says the upgrades cost. One of my building is $1500 to upgrade, but when I press the “upgrade” button, it takes $5000-$6000 out of my character’s account. Not terrible, but it is hard to plan upgrades not knowing how much it will actually cost. ### 2/5 — Auto plays ads *2025-05-20* Once you reach level 4 it’s ads ads ads ads. Cant upgrade your car trunk space until level 4, as well, terrible **Developer response:** Hello, kendersrule! We understand your frustration with the ads, but they are necessary to keep the game free for everyone. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to work on improving the experience. Thank you for your understanding. ### 3/5 — Letztes großes Update war leider ein Downgrade *2025-05-03* Fand es vorher besser. Die angeblich „verbesserte“ Stadt wirkt jetzt leider deutlich schlechter und insgesamt gab es keine Optimierung des Gameplays sondern eher ein Downgrade. **Developer response:** Hallo, B.A.95!  Danke für dein ehrliches Feedback! Wir bedauern, dass dir die neue Stadt und das Update nicht gefallen haben. Dein Eindruck ist uns wichtig und wir werden ihn berücksichtigen, um zukünftige Verbesserungen zu gestalten. ### 3/5 — Latest update is awful *2025-04-25* Latest city update is terrible, not enough slots for everything I have purchased, including what I spent diamonds on. This months guest bid was terrible as I could never find a single item **Developer response:** Hi, Mcfangirl Thanks for your feedback. We understand the frustration with limited slots and item availability. We’re working on improving the balance and providing a better experience in future updates. Your input is very important to us! ### 4/5 — enjoy it, but I’m getting bored.. *2025-04-25* I enjoy it. It is one of the better of the auction games. It does get very repetitious and I wish there were some surprises along the way. Somebody’s got more creative people. Wish there were more auctions available and also now you have updated the city, which is cool. But you cannot zoom in or zoom out and I would like to see the entire city. I will change my rating higher, but Zzzzzz. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-06-19, version 2.9.1* This game honestly sucks and it’s full of bugs/ hacks the website is super suspicious and idek why I got this game it won’t even let me delete my account because I connected it to my apple ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-05-07* This game had problems before, and now they’ve added ads. Instead of getting better, it’s gotten worse now it’s just ads, not even a game anymore. Hello, Chaster! We understand your frustration with the ads, but they are necessary to keep the game free for everyone. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to work on improving the experience. Thank you for your understanding For your answer: This game is really not worth playing, you say it's free, what are you thinking when you say that? There are so many better and free games now that your game can't be compared to them, like Delta Force, Wind Meat, and... **Developer response:** Hi, Chaster00. We’re sorry the game didn’t meet your expectations. Could you share a bit more about what specifically made the experience feel not worth playing for you? Your feedback helps us better understand what we can improve. ### 1/5 — Game mainly just crashes now *2026-05-04, version 2.8.4* At the end of an auction the totals will show up and the game freezes. Your only option is restart and the previous auction didn't count. Currently unplayable now, would not recommend until fixed. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-05-02, version 2.8.4* This game had problems before, and now they’ve added ads. Instead of getting better, it’s gotten worse now it’s just ads, not even a game anymore. ### 1/5 — Worst game ever *2026-04-23, version 2.8.4* I barely downloaded it and when I try to bid button won’t work like my screen went out where the button is but that’s not the case smh , do better ### 1/5 — Best offer *2026-02-05, version 2.7.1* Why support a game or spend money in a game with the best off is $99 down from 409? Someone wants you to spend $100 on a mobile game ### 1/5 — Broken Tutorial *2026-01-31* Just downloaded the game, can’t even get past the tutorial. when you win the first auction and collect your winnings, it shows the scoreboard and says “tap to continue” .. i’ve tried tapping all parts of the screen and nothing happened. i even tried closing the game and doing it all over again - same issue!! **Developer response:** Hello, Jake! We’re sorry to hear about the issues you’re experiencing. Please reach out to us at auctioncity@byaliens.com with more details so we can assist you promptly. We’re committed to resolving these issues as quickly as possible! ### 1/5 — Annoyed *2025-10-28, version 2.3.3* Cant login gets stuck on loading screen. Hope you fix it soon. ### 1/5 — Geld ausgegeben jetzt geht nichts mehr *2025-09-23* Hab jetzt in 2 Wochen ca 30€ ausgegeben. Komm ne dem Spiel nicht weiter weil alles zu teuer. Nun funktioniert das Spiel nicht mehr. Wenn ich das Spiel öffne steht dass mein Spiel veraltet ist aber es gibt im AppStore keine Aktualisierung. Habe mir erst gestern 3 Tage schnelleres verkaufen gekauft was ich nun nicht nutzen kann und es läuft ja weiter **Developer response:** Hallo, PUN1SH3R.?. Bitte kontaktiere uns über den Support-Button im Spiel, damit wir dein Problem mit der fehlenden Aktualisierung prüfen und dir schnellstmöglich helfen können. ### 1/5 — I want to play put it keeps stalling out *2025-08-07, version 2.1.2* It keeps stalling at 45% ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Игра работает не исправно!Игра слетает после аукциона … *2026-02-17* Игра не плохая 👍исправьте ошибки плиз ! ### 5/5 — Not biased, just years of experience. *2026-02-15, version 2.8.0* As someone who almost never writes reviews but has been playing this game for years, I just wanted to share an honest take so new players know what to realistically expect. Yes, you’re going to experience bugs, it’s inevitable with Bid Wars. A classic example will be the loading screen freeze, I suggest turning off your wifi until it loads and then turn it back on. However, since this game is constantly being updated, each bug comes and goes. Yes, you’re going to want to spend you’re own money. If you do…stick to crystals, it will take you further than packages and other purchases. Yes, you’ll need to watch ads, IF you can’t move any further without special resources. Or are waiting for certain items to go through college and cleaners. Put on YouTube or your favorite show, this game will let you play for hours. The Boot in any auction is the best to grab with ads. With that being said, this game is fantastic. I highly suggest downloading. ### 5/5 — Good Game *2026-02-09* This is a good game and it passes time but prices too high and takes a long time to sell items ### 5/5 — Get Stuck On Broken Ads *2025-08-30* This games fun, nice graphics and intense bidding. Watching the ads don’t work, you get stuck on the ad and there isn’t a way to exit out without closing and restarting the game. When you restart you don’t get the reward for watching the game. I’m sad I spent money on this game, I can’t pass the campaign because i need to watch an ad but it never completed because ads is broken. ### 5/5 — Salas na Galeria *2025-08-27* A cada atualização, melhora a jogabilidade. Uma sugestão: colocar mais salas na galeria. ### 5/5 — Even the best is not flawless *2025-05-24* So, I have been in the hospital for the last 4 weeks and sadly there’s not much to do when you lack a leg, so my phone is now filled with mobile games, and this one is by far the best one that I have played, I watch a lot of ads in this game but my brain finds it okay because you’re getting a reward for watching them. Now my 2 complaints: 1. There is an exclamation above each building when there is something to do with it, issue is even when the building is good the exclamation doesn’t go away, just annoying does affect play 2. In the auction for the big 5 I only ever seem to get the same item I never get any of the other four items. ### 5/5 — Bon jeu *2025-03-13* Jeu sympa et pas trop dure Nécessité de regarder quelques pub pour gagner des rubis ou augmenter les éléments de recherche sur les objets ### 5/5 — Sehr schöner Zeitvertreib *2024-12-25* Das Spiel finde ich ein sehr gelungener Zeitvertreib man hat keine nervige Werbung nach jeder Runde. ### 5/5 — Fixer le bug *2024-11-16* Un bug quand je vient pour recuperer les ailes de la gloire je colecte et ecran noir et plus rien ne se passe regler ca svp car j’adore le jeu et la je peut plus avancer a cause de ca svp merci ### 5/5 — Super jeu *2024-08-16* Rien a redire sauf, serait il possible d’inclure dans une mise à jour à venir la rotation des bâtiments. Ça serait top de pouvoir placer comme on veut les maisons et commerces --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
