I would love for this to be fixed because I can’t do anything. ### 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. ### 4/5 — Stuck at tutorial *2019-02-13* I have absolutely no idea what it wants me to do to progress. It’s telling me about multiple weapons but I just can’t activate them. ### 3/5 — Fun at first then repetitive *2018-07-06, version 1.0.7* It's fun at first but then all you're doing is repeating the same process over and over again, interface has words that are far too small to make it a grab and go game. ### 2/5 — Not a good mobile game *2018-06-30* The text is way too small and hard to read and the controls are too fiddly for a mobile game. Might be good on a computer but not on an iPad. ### 3/5 — Meh *2018-04-22, version 1.0.6* Not much depth ### 4/5 — Fun Game *2018-04-04, version 1.0.6* Overall an enjoyable game if you enjoy management style games. The main negative point, some of the images and text have really poor resolutions which can be distracting. iPhone 7+ ### 2/5 — Holy Potatoes! This is Annoying! *2018-04-02, version 1.0.6* Weak humour combined with exceptionally repetitive gameplay but without the fun of clickers. Desperately needs automation early. (And no, contracts don't count.) ### 3/5 — Could b 5 star!!!!! *2018-03-08, version 1.0.6* Top game but let down because of the text is almost impossible to read and I have a 8 Plus,plz plz make larger,and I’ll give a 5 star . ### 4/5 — Super fun Karosoft sim with too soon an ending *2018-03-05, version 1.0.6* Can’t pan or zoom on the over world. Some touch areas are not responsive, such as when trying to select a world area that slightly off screen, and panning isn’t responsive. This is on an iPad Air 2. I imagine on an iPhone this would be worse. Now, it’s a fun Karosoft type sim game but the ending comes too abrupt. You’ll be rocking weapons with little challenge 60% way through. It is addictive but take your time because kind of easy to unlock everything in one go. You probably won’t play it through a second time. ### 3/5 — Help I’m stuck *2018-03-04* I am stuck with the trying to pay for the people and restart the whole game over 15 or so times. Tips? **Developer response:** Hello dix3134 5232 dix dix dix, If you're interested, you can join our discord at https://discord.me/holypotatoes to talk about it, or refer to this discussion on steam for some tips: https://steamcommunity.com/app/363600/discussions/0/483367798505623048/ ! We hope this helps :) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 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. ### 1/5 — It needs to be updated *2018-08-26* The game is great, it’s addicting creating various weapons but before a game over it auto saves but after the game over you go to the auto save and it’s the beginning of the day and that does not give you enough time to forge another weapon to sell so your stuck in an endless loop of trying to make a weapon and then a game over happens so you go to the latest save but there isn’t enough time to make a weapon. That I think needs to be fixed. **Developer response:** Hi Player343667181, Thank you for your feedback. I believe that this is the mechanics of the auto-save function, as it will save the latest progress. So to avoid game over, you can save at different points during your gameplay so you can go back to them and change your actions accordingly. If you have any other question, please do not hesitate to send to support@holypotatoesgame.com Thank you. ### 1/5 — Game Freeze/lack of instruction *2018-03-15, version 1.0.6* The game (Both) won’t advance past the tutorial...I nothing I do advanced the game and I’m stuck in an endless circle...I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!! ### 1/5 — I can't play this game *2018-03-05* I bought this game for my iPad and it won't get past the loading screen before crashing. I really want to play it but can't. Please fix the constant crashing **Developer response:** Hey Cdfgsvhjbcv, thank you for letting us know of this issue and we are sorry to hear that your game is crashing. Could you please send us your iOS version and device specs to support@holypotatoesgame.com? Also if you could explain when and where the game crashes and if any error messages pop up in the email that would help us out a lot. We look forward to receiving your email so we can get this crash sorted as fast as possible. ### 1/5 — Waste of money. *2018-01-18, version 1.0.3* Had great reviews but moves way too slow. Not enjoyable at all. ### 1/5 — Two apps confusing *2017-08-07, version 1.0.1* Wasn't sure which app to get as I didn't want to be stuck on one device, bought the iPhone as it claimed to be updated to universal but iPad has letterbox, animations are glitchy, resolution of different parts are horribly pixelated, certain objects have white lines around the transparency. All just rather upsetting. Edit: It gets worse, crashes at first awards and can't get past it, crashes every time. Unplayable. ### 1/5 — Give me my money back *2017-08-06, version 1.0.0* Game is fun but crashes? I want my money back ### 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. ### 2/5 — Hit a wall. *2019-01-30, version 1.0.7* Love the game, hasn’t had any crashes as others have mentioned but will not unlock the root beer world. I have fully competed the first two world, maxed all heroes and have enough (5) tickets to proceed but it won’t let me ☹️😣 ### 2/5 — Bugged, can’t go any further *2018-07-19* I have enough to unlock thick gravy-and, but it won’t allow me to. I can’t progress, very annoying. Apparently I solved the agents problem wasting so much time here and there is no more storyline either... Update: as I mentioned before I cant unlock think gravy-and. It is half cut off the screen and I can’t zoom out, nothing happens when I click on it. I have an iPad Pro 1st gen. I always update my iOS. The problem is still there. I’m stuck. **Developer response:** Hello Mila, We're really sorry to hear about this and would like to help you resolve this issue. Would you mind telling us more about your device model and iOS? It would also help us if you could explain where in the game your progress was halted! We hope to solve this as soon as possible. UPDATE: We'd like to check if you've unlocked the previous area, Midnight Caverns! If you haven't, the button to unlock Thick Gravy-and would not function. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love the game *2021-07-31* The game is good! Has a few hard parts to it but it’s easy to figure them out ### 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. ### 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 ### 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. ### 5/5 — Great way to spend your money *2019-03-31, version 1.0.7* Fantastic game I love the simplicity of it and yet it has a great story line! ### 5/5 — HOLY POTATOES I LOVE THIS GAME!! *2019-03-30* This game is extremely fun and addictive in my opinion it should cost more money it’s great game recommend it to everyone who sees this :) ### 5/5 — Kind of complicated but fun *2019-02-16* I just started playing today and it is very fun. Even though, it is kind of complicated it is still addicting. ### 5/5 — Fantastic game and developers. *2018-05-20, version 1.0.6* First of all if you enjoy any form of simulation game then this is the game for you. It’s funny, entertaining and moderately challenging when it comes to management. A tip if you are going to purchase the newest release for IOS, make sure you purchase the game through the bundle it saves you some money. I look forward to the future in regards to new releases. I have followed this game for a while and bought both of them twice. Well worth it. In regards to the next release. I sure will!!!! A holy potatoes game about Spy’s. I shall eagerly wait for its release. ### 5/5 — Addictive and Fun *2018-03-22* bought the bundle and was thinking “what did I just get myself into”. I do not regret my purchase, it reminds me of ‘Game D Story’ with a pinch of ‘Word Chef’ where you can upgrade the workshop with rugs and wall decorations to boost team members. The cheesy puns are delight, the art is good for a mobile device, the controls are simple, little instruction is needed. Keep up the good work. I hope you have more Holy Potatoes IPs in the works. **Developer response:** Hello the mike X, Thank you for your positive review as well as your support towards our Holy Potatoes! series :) We are actually working on a new game - Holy Potatoes!
