### 5/5 — Супер игра!

*2026-04-30*

Подскажите, как можно оплатить через РФ? С Apple оплатой невозможна, есть ли в веб-сайт

### 1/5 — Game difficulty

*2025-12-05*

This game is the hardest game ever made and that’s not a compliment! Almost every stage is extremely difficult, and it expects you to complete all of them perfectly. It’s honestly very illogical how can the required number of customers and the number of likes be exactly the same? There isn’t even room for a single mistake. Maybe the reason the game is so challenging is that you’re supposed to spend money just to move on to the next level.

### 5/5 — Мало ресторанов. Надо больше.

*2025-11-22*

Игра хорошая, но добавьте еще рестораны и не один. Очень быстро прошла ее. Upd: прекрасная техподдержка, всегда отвечают и помогают.

*2024-10-14*

Здравствуйте. Купила бриллианты за 199₽, деньги сняли, бриллианты не добавили. Верните деньги !!

### 3/5 — Great but too many ads

*2024-09-30, version 2.24.1*

The game is amazing, I really enjoyed it but I did not want to have to spend money.
One ad every 3-4 games of 30 to 45seconds is fine but one at the ad of every game? And sometime 2? It’s a bit much…
It felt like I spent most of my time watching ads then playing…

### 1/5 — Scam

*2024-09-26, version 2.24.1*

Scam

### 1/5 — За активное участие в SCAM проекте Hamster Kombat!

*2024-09-24*
