### 4/5 — Console is better

*2026-08-22*

Great game but so much better on console

### 1/5 — Greed and avarice

*2026-08-19*

Even my mobile game standards this update has been greedy….theres no way to get the new currency in meaningful amounts without payment to upgrade heroes did the math you get 1 red/highest tier formula a month for free after trading in the *1* free green one you get a day and to evolve a red hero to their third tier(not even max mind you) takes 100 formulas thats 100 months+ it would take to theoretically get it free assuming no ungodly ads or paying for it with real money. Also WHY TF is the newest hero still a paid only hero no free path? Ignoring the DLC that’s also a paid thing for access to a large number of new characters and such that I do get being separate and why did you have to replace the original card modifier system with a significantly inferior one that even with the huge refund-conversion of potatoes(coins) is way less powerful than the original model? Edit: the battle pass is also super flawed in that all my chips are above level 3 yet I get no credit for it and lose the rewards even though it should in a sane world be automatically added cause I’ve literally done better than that(heck all my chips are almost level 5/maxed now)

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us! To start with your first point — we've recently introduced new modes and systems, and both come with a generous amount of free resources. We've also increased the number of spuds you earn from completing runs. Looking ahead, we'll keep adding more free-to-claim characters through new gameplay, systems, and events, so stay tuned! As for the chip system, we're actively working on improving it — it's something we're continuously refining. Lastly, about the bug you mentioned — would you mind sharing a bit more detail about what happened? That would really help us look into it. If anything else comes up, please don't hesitate to reach out anytime at support@erabitstudios.com. We're always happy to help!

### 4/5 — My brotato experience in history with the game

*2026-08-18, version 1.3.372*

All right, so I first heard about rotate when ssundee started playing it so I went to mobile and thought it would be the same. It was not. 
So four years. It was sitting there waiting for the big update that would take it from mobile to more like PC and now it’s gotten so much love that it’s amazing. I’ve been playing it for almost every day the one thing I wish they would fix is survival a way to get fries

### 2/5 — First time experience is bad

*2026-08-16, version 1.3.372*

Simple game play, but the menus, mechanics and UI are to complicated. So many things to choose and press, doesn’t give me a chance to just play the game before showing me all of its mechanics and offering me things to buy.

### 5/5 — Fantastic all around game

*2026-08-14, version 1.3.372*

Just a great overall game in my opinion. Doesn’t bombard you with ads, you only get them when you choose to get them. And it’s just a really fun game to play all together. Would definitely recommend

### 5/5 — 76

*2026-08-12, version 1.3.372*

Amazing game

### 5/5 — 動画いっぱい出てるね！

*2026-08-11*

やり込み要素豊富で楽しい！これは時間喰われる。

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-08-11, version 1.3.372*

The forced tutorial hints have broken the game. I cannot play it without the boxes appearing and they are not on the screen so they cannot be dismissed.

### 5/5 — ライトユーザー向け

*2026-08-10*

pcでsteamのbrotatoをやっているんだけど、
性能 ゲーム性 キャラ 武器 などはほとんど一緒だけど、ソシャゲのような要素だったり課金要素が強め。ただ、無料で遊びたかったり、少し遊んだりするだけなら全然これでもいいと思いました。スマホでも有料版はsteamと一緒なので、気が向いたらそちらもプレイしてみてください。

### 2/5 — Just why

*2026-08-08, version 1.3.372*

To be clear I absolutely love the core gameplay loop,but WHY do you need to pump it with adds AND make it so you can’t use the classes you usually have at the start for example YOU CANNOT USE well rounded without going through hours of play and adds just to use the basic starting class
