Has a few hard parts to it but it’s easy to figure them out ### 4/5 — Great so far but I can’t progress *2021-06-01* It has been great but I can’t unlock the tower of root beer for some reason because I can’t scroll to tap the button that would let me confirm. I would love for this to be fixed because I can’t do anything. ### 5/5 — Great game, tiny gripe *2021-02-16* Great game. Fun & engaging. Hilarious dialogue/story -especially if you keep up with video game culture. Only 2 improvements I could think of: the in game text is kinda small on my iPhone XR, I could still play and read it all, but I could definitely see it being an issue for many people. And the game doesn't have much replay value which is kinda lame because you can beat it in about 2-3 days. If a new game+ or prestige type function was included, that would probably make the game much more enjoyable long term. I still recommend it though, great simple fun. Overcomes it's flaws with ease. ### 2/5 — Teeny tiny type—unplayable *2020-04-05, version 1.0.8* Can you make the type visible to people who are over 40? Asking for a friend. ### 1/5 — Seems fun, but is a grind fest *2020-04-04* Game has a lot going for it; the smiths and hero’s can level up, you can explore for relics/enchantments, and a lot of neat little touches like boosting equipment, a dog to feed, etc... in the end (30min later), it became a grind fest. Very, VERY repetitive . Was hoping for more depth but beyond the initial appeal, this game falls flat. ### 5/5 — Great game *2019-10-13, version 1.0.8* Great game so far just got introduced to it so really enjoying it would love if I could get the promo codes because I can’t seem to find them anywhere online. Thanks for making an amazing game hope to try the rest of the series once I complete this ### 4/5 — Great! *2019-10-07* This game is good its the best out of all 3 but, i don't like having the risk of starting all the way over I haven't played this in a while but it is great maybe add a fighting mode to test your weapons. I hate to start over still though. ### 4/5 — Great game, to many menus *2019-05-24* So this is clearly ripped straight from the PC version. However doing it that way for a smart phone has made it a cluttered mess when it comes to UI/menus. This is my only complaint, if this is fixed I would love to give it 5 stars. ### 4/5 — Feedback and review *2019-05-17* THOUGHTS I’ve been playing this for close to 11 hours now I’m on the third area, it’s very addicting and fun if you enjoy micromanagement and resource management but without aggressive micro-transactions. The characters are fun and the weapons are very cool. It feels satisfying to make weapons and the game is a challenge to keep your funds flowing. It’s by no means hard (yet) unless you make a bad decision. ——- FEEDBACK Only problems I have are The overall display of Menus is a bit much it’s kind of overwhelming maybe give the option to minimize them or disable them all together such as the feedback chat from hero’s and smiths and such. Also having your Smith’s go out and do something and having to place them back in their spot everytime is incredibly annoying. I would love for this be changed. It’s becoming more tedious as I have 8 smiths now and placing all of them back in their original spots is tedious and unneeded feature. —- Conclusion (in my opinion) The game is great and one of the best ports I’ve seen let alone the fact it’s cheap compared to on console or pc, it’s a fun pocket game and I kill many boring hours I have nothing to do with it I recommend spending the money on it and I will be picking up the other “Holy potatoes!” Titles shortly. ### 5/5 — AMAZING *2019-04-07* I downloaded out of curiosity. When I was enchanting it said swish & flick and I got so pumped about Harry Potter. The game is super fun and Love it. Before I downloaded it I was upset that the spy story couldn’t be downloaded on my device, but I was not let down. ## Frequently asked questions about Holy Potatoes!
