### 2/5 — Good game.. but

*2026-09-08, version 2.55.2*

This game is fun but their icon is AI generated garbage so I’ll never play again. Which is honestly a good thing since it burns my hand off after playing it for 10 minutes. Do better. You have plenty of money to pay an artist.

### 2/5 — Please fix

*2026-09-06, version 2.55.2*

Honestly can’t say good or bad when you get a ad every 30 seconds even if you just standing still in the game really makes you not want to play anymore

### 2/5 — Bugs und Geldmache

*2026-09-04*

Leider gibt es sehr sehr viele Bugs sodass man oben links die Missionen nicht mehr weitermachen kann. Beim Neustart sind alle Ringe wieder da und alles ist zerschossen. Energie müsste besser gelöst sein, da man einfach gezwungen ist 20h zu pausieren, wenn man alles wieder voll haben will oder man kauft halt

### 2/5 — Game sucks now

*2026-09-01, version 2.55.1*

They keep updating the app photo like the game has changed or improved but it’s the same and not great.

### 2/5 — Too much

*2026-09-01, version 2.55.1*

I usually pay for the 'no ads' option, when I like a game, but this game has so many ads that I just can’t get a handle on whether or not I like the game. I have literally spent more time in ads than in gameplay, while playing this game. So, I guess at this time I’m going to pass on it.

### 1/5 — This Is An Ad Farm NOT A Game

*2026-08-25, version 2.53.3*

This could be a chill game, but there are ads literally every 30 seconds.  Granted, the ads are typically short, but you are absolutely bombarded with so many ads that it will cause your phone to overheat.  And, to top it off, after every single ad, they beg you to give them money to remove the ads.  The amount of ads in this ad farm, coupled with the downright extreme greed of Rollic is absurd.  Rollic sure knows how to either turn people off of their games, or irritate them so much they break down and hand over money.  Well, you’re not getting my money, you greedy scum!  UNINSTALLED!

### 1/5 — Bug

*2026-08-24, version 2.53.3*

I keep getting a bug that tells me to unlock the wood factory, but there is no wood factory to unlock. Considering g a permanent delete.

### 1/5 — To many ad’s!!!

*2026-08-24, version 2.53.3*

Fun an al but the ads are overwhelming

### 1/5 — My game has been broken for over a year

*2026-08-23, version 2.53.3*

They will not get back to me when I email them and my game has been broken for over a year the the wheel will not reset

### 3/5 — Too Many Ads

*2026-08-22, version 2.53.3*

I kept seeing this game advertised on other apps and thought it looked fun. I expected I’d have to pay to remove ads but the free version of the game is nearly unplayable with the sheer amount of interruptions. I’d like to check out the game before dropping $6 to remove the ads. I couldn’t even get a feel for the game with as many interruptions I faced. Looks cool. I’m not gonna pay to find out.

### 3/5 — Energy timer

*2026-08-20, version 2.53.3*

I played until my character ran out of energy two days ago. And it’s still saying I have zero energy. I checked again yesterday and it said I had almost a hour left. Then I just checked now. And I have two hours left. How am I suppose to play it if I can’t even leave the game to do other things

### 3/5 — Ads

*2026-08-15, version 2.53.2*

The game is pretty fun overall, but the amount of forced ads is quite ridiculous, pretty much unless you buy the no ads pass the game is nearly unbearable to play.

### 1/5 — Buy my ads

*2026-08-15*

Games not to bad except every 45 seconds, once you have played for a bit, you will be forced to sit through a add. 
It’s a Pay me money now and you can play the game type game. 

Not worth it

### 2/5 — Ads

*2026-08-15, version 2.53.2*

Too much ads

### 1/5 — Terrible. Completely stuck

*2026-08-14, version 2.53.2*

I used to play this game and I really enjoyed it. But then something happened with an update and I got completely stuck. There’s no wood to carve. There’s no way for me to reset it. It’s just completely useless. Now, even on restart even on reinstall, I can see that there’s new stuff I can see that there’s new content. I just can’t access any of it. Absolutely terrible I’ve also reached out to the developer to report an issue and there’s been no response absolute crickets. What a disappointment.

### 1/5 — Unbearable Ads

*2026-08-13, version 2.53.2*

The amount of ads is unbearable. I’ve just made it to level 2 and am already ready to quit, because there are so many ads. Most games have a reasonable trial period before they start up with ads, so they can suck you into paying for the game without ads. This game just isn’t worth it.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-08-12, version 2.53.2*

Don’t download unless you wanna watch add after add after add. They pretty much try to force you into buying the add free. WoT do it especially after the reviews

Ultimately DO NOT DOWNLOAD

### 1/5 — TROP DE PUBBBBB

*2026-08-10*

Non mais sans rire on peut pas jouer plus d’une minute sans avoir une pub, aucun plaisir, et juste pour ça je mettrais jamais un euro dans votre jeu, dommage parce qu’il est plutôt addictif, niveau forcing pub vous y avez été fort

### 1/5 — Trop

*2026-08-09*

Trop de pubs une pub toute les quinze secondes c’est déjà longs pour avancer et on bouffe de la pubs à tout va je désinstalle

### 1/5 — Way too many ads now

*2026-08-09*

The game was good but the frequency of ads is insane you can barely play the game they are so often now

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Adds, adds, and more adds!!!!

*2026-09-08, version 2.55.2*

Way to many adds. I loved the game, but impossible to play, always pops an add. They should remove the one from just moving and keep only the one that the player can chose to watch when you want a little bonus

### 1/5 — Awful

*2026-09-07, version 2.55.2*

I played for 3 minutes and had to watch 5 ads in that time. Rubbish.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-09-03, version 2.55.1*

To many ads for no reason other then to make money

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2026-09-01, version 2.55.1*

Downloaded today and played for a couple of hours. Game could be fun, it’s a real time waster which is what I was expecting, good for something to idly do while doing something else. Unfortunately there are ads every 1-2 minutes if you don’t want to pay $5-6 to remove ads, which I don’t want to. This is in addition to a permanent banner ad, which I don’t mind at all, devs gotta make money somehow. But then after about an hour or two of play I hit the end of my ‘energy’ for the day and either need to wait until essentially tomorrow or shell out more money for the privilege of being advertised to more. Experience not worth it, sorry to say.

### 1/5 — Game ist verbuggt

*2026-08-31*

Das Game ist seit Jahren verbuggt. Dadurch kann ich nicht weiterspielen. Hab umsonst Geld investiert und auf e-Mails/bug Reports reagiert der Entwickler nicht

### 1/5 — Don’t Download

*2026-08-29, version 2.55.1*

Immediately deleted this game once I realized they have a timer that counts down for the only reason of if you want to keep playing you have to purchase energy

### 1/5 — Werbung

*2026-08-28*

70% Werbung

### 1/5 — Don’t

*2026-08-27, version 2.53.3*

Game used to be amazing then the update wiped out all progress. So many forced ads it’s legit 15 mins of actual game play, and 45 mins of ads. And once you watch a reward ad, it legit forces you to watch a “forced ads”. How can anyone play this with the constant forced ads? I get you need the ads to pay the bills but abusing the ad function this much is mind blowing, forcing players to pay for ad removal which only removes the forced ads not the reward ones. And limiting reward ads to 6/8 a day and then having a depleting energy pool seems counter productive. Was a good game then it sold out. Don’t waste your time or money. Fine a clone game that is more satisfying for its players.

### 1/5 — upgrade the key

*2026-08-26, version 2.53.3*

i delete this game every time you can’t upgrade anymore. besides permanent upgrades resetting with every timeline no matter how many screws you melt it’ll never go past 20% so there’s that. there needs to be an update to the game to keep improving but they seem to be stuck since there isn’t much competition yet. just a game to kill time

### 1/5 — I was really enjoying this…

*2026-08-25, version 2.53.3*

I was actually enjoying this game immensely. Until the ads started popping up every minute and the game itself started to beg you for money to play it.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2026-07-12, version 2.52.6*

Fun easy to get into game.

### 5/5 — Game is great but..

*2026-06-10, version 2.52.6*

I think the game is great especially after your updates but once you updated now I cannot buy the no commercial option. Can you please fix it otherwise I’m going to have to get rid of the game because the commercials happen so often it’s very irritating.

### 5/5 — My favourite game

*2026-02-03, version 2.52.4*

This is my favourite game. Recently my auto shredder isn’t working. Please help

### 5/5 — Hmmm…permanent?!?

*2025-11-24*

I think you and I have two very different ideas of the word permanent. In my mind, permanent means… well… permanent, as in lasting forever. So when I finished Timeline 1 and it said the game would reset, I was fine with it because I assumed my “permanent” upgrades would remain—since they were… well… permanent!

Nope. Everything reset.

Which means my permanent upgrades were not, in fact, permanent; they were actually temporary. So please remove the word permanent and replace it with something more accurate like, “Upgrades last until we feel like taking them away from you.”

Also, this Timeline 2 reset negates the Carve Pass items I had collected and was saving. So… there’s that.

I’m still going to play your game because, gosh darn it, it’s just so much fun. I just think it needs to be a little clearer that when Timeline 2 begins, you will LOSE EVERYTHING.

It does seem like I’m gaining everything back a bit faster in Timeline 2, though.

Oh, and one more thing—what happened to sphere carving? Did you remove it entirely, or will it eventually unlock?

### 5/5 — Satisfied

*2025-11-18, version 2.5.0*

Carving wood is calming

### 5/5 — Energy

*2025-11-10, version 2.4.9*

Why does it make me want to buy energy? It says I ran out of energy but I can clearly see there’s 3 ready for me to use when I load in and then goes to the screen saying out of energy please buy some or watch videos to continue playing. Please bring back the old way to where your workers don’t work and you can just keep going on your own! So we can keep playing and not wait

### 5/5 — Me encanta

*2025-11-02, version 2.4.7*

Desde la ultima actualización no funciona la aspiradora

Vacuum not working

### 5/5 — Wow! Haven’t played in like two months and wow!

*2025-10-31, version 2.4.7*

Nice work! Keep it up.

### 5/5 — Like it but

*2025-10-23, version 2.4.4*

I’ve been playing this game for a long time and it was fun until the latest update. Now it’s all bugs. I can’t use the vacuum machine thing. The game is impossible to play now…

### 5/5 — Хорошая игра, спасибо)

*2025-10-20, version 2.4.4*

Спасибо за обновление! Отличная игра, увлекательная!!!
