### 2/5 — What happened?

*2026-05-22, version 5.9.3*

In recent days (app has not been updated so not sure what happened) in the hire workers menu it no longer gives a pop up to choose different amounts to buy at. Now you have to keep tapping to cycle through. 1, 10, 100, 1k, 10k, 100k, 1mil, max.

### 1/5 — Lag

*2026-04-22, version 5.9.3*

Insane lag

### 1/5 — 怎么改中文

*2026-04-03, version 5.9.3*

不是说有中文么 怎么改呀

### 1/5 — Predatory ads

*2026-03-14, version 5.9.0*

Even with the no add pack purchased, the game regularly force opens safari to websites that are phishing attempts. This prevents letting the game idle which is the main gameplay process. Feedback left on discord has no resulted in this being fixed. I really enjoy the rest of the game and have no real lag or performance issues, but until the main gameplay loop doesn’t result in constant phishing attempts the game is functionally unplayable on iPhone.

### 1/5 — Endless popups

*2026-01-23, version 5.8.8*

I think the game has been hacked, i get non stop popups. game is unplayable

### 5/5 — Malware! Players beware!

*2026-01-15, version 5.8.8*

Often while playing this app will close and open an internet tab taking me to unwanted websites, most often malware sites. This game is a 0/5 star game with the malware issues.

### 3/5 — Over heating

*2026-01-07, version 5.8.8*

### 3/5 — I’m Overseers not working

*2025-12-29, version 5.8.8*

Overseers are hit and miss. Lately they have not been working well at all.

### 1/5 — Malware carrier

*2025-12-29, version 5.8.8*

Every time I open this game it opens fake web addresses telling me my phone has a virus. Clearly this game Carrie’s malware with it - RUN AWY AS GAST AS YOU CAN! I am reporting it to Apple.

### 1/5 — Laggy

*2025-12-24, version 5.8.8*

It’s a great game, I very much enjoy it. However it’s unplayable. The lag will drive you crazy. Will change to 5 star when it runs smooth
