### 3/5 — Freezing.

*2026-03-07, version 1.2.0*

I can't even play it anymore... 😩

### 2/5 — Constantly Crashes

*2026-02-03, version 1.2.0*

Game crashes regularly, normally 5-10 minutes each play. If your about to clear a large payout and you crash a few seconds before, you miss the reward.

### 2/5 — 🤷🏻‍♀️

*2024-07-17, version 1.2.0*

Not a bad game. Fun to play. But once I progress to a certain point the ads stop working and it starts freezing up. I can go out of the game and come back in and it will do the same. But if I delete and redownload it starts working again in the beginning and then get about to the same point in the game and it does the same thing and starts freezing and the ads stop working.

### 2/5 — Sweeter and Ad issues

*2023-10-17, version 1.2.0*

Sweeter doesn’t reset for me anymore. The number keeps going up, I keep being told that my campaign was successful every time I open the app, but it does nothing.
When turning the wheel, there’s a chance that I watch 2 30 second ads instead of one.
The game could use a Buy in One Shot button for the upgrades after a reset. I’m tired of having to clear 100+ items at each reset.
I’ve bought two TVs in game, and I would have bought more perks if the game wasn’t so buggy.

### 4/5 — I enjoy this
