Nitwits. I really wanted to play it but ya gotta be able to read it. Deleted in disappointment. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2023-04-23, version 0.7.0* I don’t like how after an update to the game all of my progress gets erased completely. On the fame there is no feature where you can save your progress. Whenever there is another update people will want to leave the game bc they always have to start allllll over from scratch. I would have not given any stars for the rating but it wouldn’t let me do that. I’ll give only 1 star rating. ### 1/5 — 🎶Blinded by the Light🎶 *2022-09-09, version 0.6.2* Giant orbs are white washing most of the screen. They disappear when paused. Not able to play. Would like to though. ### 2/5 — Fun Play… but *2025-02-01, version 0.7.4* Just hate it when you pause a game with lots of simulation cycles available… that continue to be used while the game is paused leaving you with a loss. ### 2/5 — Stuck in the tutorial *2023-04-26, version 0.7.0* I spent all my money before building a science academy and now I’m stuck and have to reset the game. Please fix ### 3/5 — The potential for an amazing game is there *2022-09-23, version 0.6.2* The concept and look of the game is fantastic, however there a quite a few bugs that make this game largely unplayable at moment. Some won’t let you upgrade or build buildings and currently I’m just stuck in the middle of one the uninhabited cities unable to leave, which is a shame because tbh is game could be amazing if it was playable. PLEASE FIX BUGS SO I CAN PLAY AGAIN ### 3/5 — Game crash *2022-09-08, version 0.6.2* After I discovered my second anomaly, every time I try to do the anomaly lock it crashes the game and I can’t completely “explore” the anomaly. Other than this happening, the game has been pretty fun and enjoyable. ### 3/5 — Not yet great *2022-09-06, version 0.6.2* I encountered a bug that won’t let me build resource collectors nor travel to the various resource sites, the game seems fun but right now it’s hard to recommend. ### 3/5 — Great game, stopped working *2022-08-15, version 0.6.1* Ok so after my first anomaly killed me, the game wont load any resources or let me build new resource gathering points. The game is really run, but this is frustrating. Ive deleted and redownloaded it twice now and it does the same thing after the first anomaly kills me. ### 3/5 — Shows promise but Buggy *2022-08-09* Back here to redownload and to reinstall after it froze on the simulating the simulation screen. I’ve enjoyed playing and discovering the story but the further you progress the slower it becomes on my iPhone 8. Also crashes randomly and resets you back in time a random amount sometimes a minute some times an hour. Hoping for an update to fix the bugs **Developer response:** We've now updated the game with a host of new features. Also fixed all the bugs you encountered last. We hope to see you back in Arcadia soon! ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Update *2023-05-08, version 0.7.1* Many of these negative reviews seem to have been before the recent update. There are some crashes but restarting the game fixed the issue and I didn’t lose anything. ### 4/5 — Credits stop Accumulating - GAME OVER *2023-12-15, version 0.7.2* An error in the latest release causes your credit amount to stop accumulating when the value reaches 100.00 N. All other amounts continue to increase or decrease correctly; which means the game is over due to the fact that the cost of all properties and resources exceeds your maximum of 100.00 N credits. Please correct, the error trashes an otherwise nice game. ### 4/5 — Resource management *2022-08-23, version 0.6.1* Resources are a bit off. Resource buildings alone already take up a chunk of resources. When one resource is low we build a resource building to raise the amount of resources, but by the time we’ve raised that resource to 100% another one is low. Continuing this cycle of building resource buildings and never having 100% resources because each resource building requires a different resource to be built. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
