### 1/5 — MORE AD THAN APP

*2026-08-26, version 2.51.2*

This game is literally unplayable, and I would pay $3-4 for it but $10 to ad free? There are triple A title actual video games that go for less than that, if you do decide to play it save yourself the trouble and know that the “special level” gives nothing special it’s just a skin on the map and has even more ads than a “normal” level.

### 4/5 — Please new maps

*2026-08-26, version 2.51.2*

Please please please put new maps on here. I love this game so much but I crave different maps, it’s getting too repetitive with only the four maps. I don’t know if new maps are currently being developed, but I think it would really step up this game. Even just two more maps would really make things interesting to me again. There used to be an office building as a map, where did it go? I prefer this game over any other “hole” games, so I’m BEGGING- please don’t waste the developers talents, we’re ready for more of their fun maps!!!

### 5/5 — Please give us more

*2026-08-26, version 2.51.2*

I love this game, but I would love some more scenes please?

### 1/5 — trash

*2026-08-26, version 2.51.2*

ad slip game

### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2026-08-26, version 2.51.2*

I like love it. I don’t know why I just love it.

### 1/5 — Ad Simulator with a fun hole mini game in between

*2026-08-25, version 2.51.2*

The game is fun, but you will spend more time watching ads than actually playing it.

I get the game is “free” but an ad everything 30 seconds is bonkers, couldnt even get through the first game before i got annoyed. 

Also $10 to remove the ads is ridiculous, ive seen far better games charge $2 for that.

In conclusion, the game is $10, because no functioning human could play this for long with as many ads as there are.

### 1/5 — ads

*2026-08-25, version 2.51.2*

The amount of ads in this game are genuinely insane, you cant play a full minute of one level without an ad being shoved in your face, theres probably about 3-5 ads that you have to watch per level plus the ad that you watch after finishing the level

### 1/5 — Way too many ads

*2026-08-25, version 2.51.2*

I absolutely love this game but am seriously thinking about not playing it anymore. $10 for no ads is more than I’m willing to pay but they try to drive you insane with the amount of ads in order to break you in to paying the $10.

### 1/5 — The ads !!!!!!!!!!!

*2026-08-25, version 2.51.2*

Fun game but after you reach a certain level, you have to watch a 50 second forced ad to play on for 30 seconds, it’s just too much and it’s spoiled the game

### 1/5 — Too many ads (like more than other brainless games)

*2026-08-25, version 2.51.2*

Having ads in the middle of levels is just plain disrespectful
