### 3/5 — one thing needed…

*2021-12-04, version 2.1*

the game is very fun and a good concept but we need a back button instead i have to quit and reload the game but over all pretty fun would be nice if you could purchase more stuff . (ideas) crytpo , nfts and real-estate

### 3/5 — one improvement

*2020-05-30, version 2.1*

please put a back button in when you’ve selected a product that you don’t want or can’t buy because the game resets if you refresh it

### 2/5 — Very Buggy

*2020-03-07, version 2.1*

Game is missing a lot of features you would expect from a clone like this. No way to back out if choices,forcing you to quit the game and go back. 
Can’t play in dark mode. 
Impossible to lose. The “bad things” that happen aren’t enough to cause you any issues. Will most likely look for another, better developed version of this game.

### 2/5 — was 5 stars until....

*2020-01-21, version 2.1*

you can't see how to move around from town to town when you have system dark mode enabled..it renders the game useless

### 3/5 — Good game, still has ads

*2020-01-07, version 1.0.1*

Paid to remove ads, it removed one banner at the bottom of the starting screen. Still has ads after the end of each game. Bogus.

### 4/5 — Exactly what I’ve been looking for

*2019-10-16, version 1.0.1*

Great game. Simple and easy but fun. Just needs the option to have longer games like 60 days. Also the option to put money in the bank for interest. I hope they add more options

### 1/5 — Wish this was great!

*2021-02-02, version 2.1*

Man I love the concept! Reminds me of playing drug wars on my ti-86 during Geometry class. Unfortunately the execution on this one is awful/borderline scam. 

Forget playing an entire game. You’ll most likely get stuck in some window that you can’t back out of. Whether it’s because you clicked on a commodity and didn’t have enough money to spend or even just checking the leaderboard, there’s no way to continue playing but to delete the app and start over. 

The reason i believe this to be a scam is that I paid the .99 for ad free playing and yet the ads continued... 

I wish this was great! They’d probably milk a lot more money out of me if it was but it’s not. Very terrible.

### 1/5 — Commodity wars

*2020-09-27, version 2.1*

Add a button to cancel out of the buy and sell menus so I can actually play the game

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-05-26, version 2.1*

My game reset every time I left the game

### 1/5 — Game is great but needs some work

*2020-05-13, version 2.1*

Definitely need to get a cancel out button for when buying things and etc.

### 1/5 — Allow close out from buy/sell or its worthless

*2020-04-08, version 2.1*

Gets stuck on screens requiring reset- finally just erased it

### 1/5 — Glitches

*2020-02-03, version 2.1*

If you have no money and nothing in your inventory, and you click on a commodity, you won’t be able to get back to the commodities screen without quitting it.

The fonts are often too dark to read, like the names of cities to travel to, or the commodity price fluctuations screen.

Seemed promising, but not worth more than 10 minutes.

### 1/5 — Bad Drug Wars knockoff is bad

*2019-12-18, version 1.0.1*

This game is a cheap ripoff of drug wars

### 2/5 — Ok.

*2021-11-12, version 2.1*

I like playing the game, but there are a lot of issues.

1. Closing tabs, tons of menus don’t have an option to cancel so if you want to leave it you have to close the game.

2. Apparently this game takes place in a lawless dystopia because your truck or whatever gets hijacked every 3 seconds and you lose half of your inventory which is worth a huge chunk of your overall money usually.

3. Each location has one commodity they don’t trade, but there is nothing to let you know what it is until you go there. So you just have to go off of memorizing what commodity doesn’t trade where so you don’t get shafted by the game and be forced to waste a day to go somewhere else

### 2/5 — no back buttons!

*2020-08-23, version 2.1*

would have been a good game but you cant back out of any menus so youre just stuck.

### 2/5 — Add back button

*2020-05-28, version 2.1*

Need to add a back button

### 5/5 — GOOD GAME, needs to be FIXED

*2021-04-23*

Good fun game! Love to play and keeps you interested. But there is an issue with when you go into a menu (for example and certain commodity) you cannot exit out, you are stuck in the menu and have to buy/sell something :/ this is the same for all the menus (bank etc). Would love to have this fixed!

### 5/5 — Good game

*2019-12-08, version 1.0.1*

Just what i was looking for...wish they would add more items and add in different game durations so you can play longer.

### 5/5 — Very good game

*2019-04-10, version 1.0.1*

Pretty cool idea for a game. How to play the game wasn’t explained very well but once you understand it it’s quite fun.

### 4/5 — this game is so good!!

*2021-03-15, version 2.1*

But u need to add closing some tabs I have played the game for like 2 hours and I had to close the app like 30 times because I couldn’t cancel out of some stuff so please fix so I can make this a 5 star.

### 4/5 — Feature Request:

*2020-12-25, version 2.1*

Currently addicted. BUT:

- Would love to have the option to go longer than 30 days. Tryna build that EMPPIIIRRRREEEEE. Maybe an in-app purchase? ;)
- inventory page “+/-25” is only programmed as “1” currently. 
- systemwide dark mode needs light text at bottom
- need a “x” cancel button on buy/sell page
- need a “x” cancel button on travel page

### 4/5 — Back button

*2020-03-23, version 2.1*

Add back button

### 4/5 — Fix this

*2020-03-19, version 2.1*

Please add more products, options to grow and BACK BUTTON.

### 4/5 — Good but some nav trouble

*2020-03-14, version 2.1*

Really like the game just get stuck in parts of the interface not being able to cancel or back out :(

### 4/5 — Very Fun

*2020-02-25*

This is one of the more enjoyable trading games I’ve come across however it needs better IPad support (landscape view for example)

 while playing it there was a few times where I’d open a menu and be able to exit, mid game I opened the loan menu without being able to repay it, there’s no button or way to close it that I could see so I had to apply for a loan to close the window.

Lastly a player driven economy in multiplayer would add a new kind of challenge. Say there’s 100k Cotten and 1k coco beans as the supply, when very little has been bought the prices are low but if there’s little in the stockpile the price is high. A whole demand and supply thing driven by the players actions and a random element or scenario

### 4/5 — What I was looking for but has some bugs

*2020-02-02, version 2.1*

I was looking for a game like this, however, there’s a few features I’d add
- cancel out of the trade window 
- cancel out of the “high score window”
- show your current inventory and bank balance on the trade window 
It’s annoying that you’re stuck buying or selling something when all you want to do is cancel and go back. Instead you’re forced to close out the game and go back in to resume.
