### 3/5 — So many ads

*2026-08-07, version 2.77.1*

So many ads

### 3/5 — Disappointed

*2026-06-10, version 2.77.1*

Game would be so fun definitely would be one of my most favorites of all time if I didn’t have to watch 2-3 adds on top of each other every 3 mins of playing tried to get premium but when I click the button nothing happens can’t find anything in the settings

### 2/5 — Enjoyed, but

*2026-04-26, version 2.76*

Really enjoyed playing, but the further you go the more adds appear, got to the point where the adds last longer than the time spent bidding.
A real shame, so I’ve uninstalled it.

### 2/5 — Game has to many ads

*2026-02-07, version 2.74*

The add on this game is way to long they like 1 min and everytime you try to play anything it’s going to be an ad. Before you can play it’s trash

### 1/5 — Don’t purchase anything

*2026-01-20, version 2.74*

Don’t purchase anything from this game because you will not get what it promises you will. I purchased a daily deal and was supposed to get 120 gold bars everyday for 7 days and I only received 60. I reached out to the developer and asked for my other gold bars I wasn’t given and they asked me to send the receipt. I sent the receipt only for them to come back and say they can’t refund apple purchases. Huh?? So I asked them to just apply the gold bars that I’m missing and they didn’t respond. I sent a request to Apple for a refund and waiting to hear back. I feel like I got scammed . It’s not for Apple to fix your issue and instead of doing the right thing and just giving me what I paid for they refused.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2026-01-16, version 2.74*

They’ve lowered the rewards on watching commercials and raised the price of the boots and such. All while not updating the game in years. Pure trash game. Don’t waste your time

### 2/5 — Bid wars ads

*2026-01-13, version 2.74*

Far too many adverts and refuse to pay to remove as it’s not worth it for what this game is…. Just gave up and deleted it from my device

### 1/5 — Ad Scam

*2026-01-12*

DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME!! It’s a front for Ads… you will spend more time watching ads that don’t go away then you will ever actually play this game!

### 1/5 — Реклама лучший друг данного приложения.

*2025-12-29*

Безумно много рекламы играть не возможно, аукционы непонятные цены в минус почти каждый раз, удаляю эту игру и другим не советую скачивать просто время потратите!

### 1/5 — Money hungry game

*2025-12-26, version 2.74*

This game demonstrates and excessive force of Monotorizacion to the point where it’s almost obsessive it requires players to make additional purchases to advance which can be frustrating even after selecting to remove ads through paid feature intrusive advertisement still appears require players to watch advertisements to gain power ups, or to watch advertisements to use spend the wheel game but overall the game is designed highly emphasizes spending real money to succeed I am extremely dissatisfied with this game and strongly advise others to avoid giving this game a chance it is notably, the most money centric game I have ever encountered it. Also displayed blatant greed, and a lack of player consideration.

### 1/5 — To many ads

*2025-10-26, version 2.73*

To many ads

### 2/5 — Relax with the ads

*2025-09-10, version 2.73*

Very annoying pushing ads every chance they get. Good luck going 2 games back to back without an Ad. We all got bills…relax with the Ads.

### 1/5 — Ad every 2 minutes!

*2025-07-14, version 2.72.2*

Would be a decent fame if not for the ads

### 1/5 — paid for no ads

*2025-07-12, version 2.72.2*

but i am still getting ads

### 2/5 — Amazing game but the adds!!!

*2025-07-11, version 2.72.2*

Great game, but theres an add to do everything, sometimes you get the option to double your bonus, just watch an add, an add that never closes! No i dont want to play bit life, if i did id be playing it! Great game if the developers would fix all the adds but after 12 years they havnt and probably never will! I would rate 5 star, but the adds are killing it and im about to delete! 2stars!

### 2/5 — Если б не всплывающие окна было б норм

*2025-07-09*

Куча рекламы и всплывающих окон

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2026-08-27, version 2.77.1*

Fun game when you get to play. Takes way too long to get in game energy to actually play.

### 1/5 — Eugh

*2026-07-05, version 2.77.1*

Full of ads and silly pop ups 🤮

### 1/5 — Fun but endless adds

*2026-05-09, version 2.76*

Game is fun, but deleted because there is a 60 sec ad  after a few mins of game play.  Its brutally bad.  Its basically 60% game play, 40% add watching.  Ridiculous how this is rated so high.

### 1/5 — ADDs

*2026-04-24, version 2.76*

Horrible amount of adds that you can’t skip

### 1/5 — Game should be called Pop Up Wars

*2026-04-03, version 2.75.1*

Dawg it’s pop up after pop up after pop up after pop up. Before you start any game you have to exit out of like 30 pop ups. Halfway through the game? Yup. More pop ups. After the game? More pop ups. Want to close the game out? Here’s a pop up. You win? Pop up. You lose? Pop up. Here’s some free blah blah. Pop up. You want to play elsewhere? Pop up. Am I a pop up? Jesus man… it’s like ridiculous

### 1/5 — Too Many Ads!!!

*2026-03-23, version 2.74*

There are too many unnecessary ads between each level. The most annoying part is that even skipping these ads takes about 15 to 20 seconds. I tried playing offline, but the game gets locked in offline mode. It’s a great game, but the ads are extremely frustrating.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-03-05*

Ads are way too often, also constant pushing to buy this and that. Your game is cliche when it comes to trying to suckers to give you money. Make a better detailed game or lower the greed. It’s cheeper to get a console or pc game in the long run.

**Developer response:** Hello, Fredthefarter! 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.

### 1/5 — Forced ads

*2026-02-18, version 2.74*

Deleting games that force ads every few mins.

### 1/5 — Holy ads

*2026-02-15, version 2.74*

There’s an ad every 3 minutes… you don’t need that many ads.. too many developers these days desperately buying fake ads to stay at the top of Apple paid for using ads…. I rate 0 if I could. Just for the ads alone

### 1/5 — ADS

*2026-01-21, version 2.74*

Too many adds!

*2024-09-19, version 2.61*

Amazing good game

### 5/5 — Terrible game

*2023-10-30, version 2.58*

So many ads it’s ridiculous. Spend more time watching ads than game play. They might as well call it ad wars cause that’s the only war you are gonna be in is the war against all the ads after every click in game. Game is a total waste of space on anyone’s phone.

### 5/5 — Really good game

*2023-08-01, version 2.56.1*

I love this game mostly cause I just love bidding and cause it’s a family friendly bidding game which you don’t see a lot I do recommend this game if you love bidding
