Entirety of the game

I think the reason behind the drastic change in the game was probably some of the children who grew very uncomfortable with the games setting, creepy and pretty dark, blobs being taken away, accidental friendly fire, depressing, and committing self sleep permanently. So I assumed parents took action to this and reached out to the developers, or maybe apple was just very strict with the self sleep.

Dang

I think this new update stuff is getting to the games we know and love.

Regresen El OG

Please give us back the first game with those mechanics, what did you do to it? I have the old game and I bought the pack:(

Did you get hacked?

I don’t understand how the game turned into an ad riddled rip-off of itself, with cheaper art, less mechanics, and everything of just a lower quality. And now the newest game in the series is a poorly made idle fantasy game? What? This is literally not the same game, I just found an old trailer and it’s a fully different game that looks and plays completely differently. I feel like the only thing that makes sense is if somebody else is running the company now or something, or you’re just really desperate for money? Why ruin a game everybody loved and turn it into one of those unplayable slop games that feels like it’s mining bitcoin and installing viruses. This was actually my childhood and I spent days trying to find it on the AppStore only to find this, which is definitely not the same game at all. 👎😢
