### 1/5 — THIEVES!!!

*2026-08-02, version 1.5*

I purchased unlimited hearts and NEVER received them. Tried the restore purchase button, yet nothing happens. I don’t like giving money away to billionaire companies for nothing. I want a refund. It’s no telling how much money Devolver has made scamming customers through this game. Shameful

### 5/5 — Весело много персонажей

*2026-06-29*

Оч весёлая игра многих пермонажей знаю некоторых нет. А так игра прикольная!

### 5/5 — Purchases don’t work

*2026-05-24, version 1.5*

Tried to restore my unlimited hearts purchase and it says it all good to go from apple but the game doesn’t show it :(

### 1/5 — Stole my money

*2026-02-18*

Purchased "unlimited hearts" only to get absolutely nothing for it. How could Devolver publish an actual scam?

Edit: they have now charged me twice for the same in app purchase that was never delivered.

### 1/5 — Purchases don't work

*2026-01-18, version 1.5*

Tried to buy unlimited hearts and it never gave me it so I got a refund and would try again later. Well after a month I tried again and its been over 2 days since I bought it, still haven't gotten the unlimited hearts. Restore Purchases button does NOTHING and they STILL advertise to me that I should buy unlimited hearts.

### 5/5 — I love you devolver

*2025-12-22, version 1.5*

Take my money

### 2/5 — The unlimited hearts for 999 years pay option does not work!

*2025-11-28, version 1.5*

I’ve tried to pay once to unlock the unlimited hearts but it doesn’t work

### 1/5 — No longer supports restoring purchase

*2025-11-25, version 1.5*

I loved this game and paid for unlimited plays. I had to redownload the game and was even willing to pay for unlimited hearts again but it only asks me if I want to restore the purchase. I click yes but it never works. I reached out to the developers and they never responded. I’m stuck waiting to play even though I purchased this feature! It’s maddening. Please fix.

### 5/5 — No ads, limited hearts, but pay once to unlock the full experience

*2025-11-21*

I like these games where you pay a very small amount of money to enjoy the good stuff, also It has no ads but limited hearts, the game can make you to take a break of playing the game, but If you want to enjoy it forever then pay it once for just $2, no subscription required! It’s not like those apps where they want you to subscribe and grab your money every month when you’re not using the app, that’s not what we want! We want to pay it once!
Mobile gaming is good but the business strategy of microtransactions every month is very unfair and this game doesn’t do that!

### 1/5 — Warning: in app purchases are broken

*2025-10-01*

In app purchases seem to be busted in 2025. Restore purchases doesn’t work for unlimited hearts, the item bundles don’t get applied when you buy them.
