The only way it would let me move was right. Darn. ### 2/5 — Can’t move on *2023-09-22* After doing the interviews I can’t move forward. It keep saying I have completed everything for the day exit. I would love to to what happens next after hiring the staff!!! ### 1/5 — TO MANY ADS! *2023-09-14, version 1.5* Literally an ad every 2 seconds. Avoid. ### 2/5 — Ad after ad *2023-06-06* I tried to pay to remove the ads but the link is broken. Has potential to be a decent time waster. ### 1/5 — Boring! *2023-03-17* This game is just the same interactions over and over again. No storyline, graphics are cheesy. Not worth the data to download. ### 1/5 — Bad Bad Game *2023-03-02, version 1.5* I like to buy the ad free version of my games, but when I try to buy the ad free version all I get is the please wait screen. It will not leave that screen even after 15 minutes. It is not my device because I have been able to go ad free on all my other games. STAY AWAY FROM THIS GAME!!! ### 1/5 — Why *2022-12-10* I hate that when it’s A job interview the people say the same thing fix it or I will tell everyone this game stinks **Developer response:** Hello, We are sorry that you do not like the game but we thank you for your feedback. Our future updates will improve the game for you. ### 1/5 — Would love to play…. *2022-11-29* But the joystick won’t let me. Can only move forward half the time **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the game does not work properly. You could try to clear the cache, restart the device and ensure that enough memory is available. We hope one of these works for you. ### 1/5 — Hate it *2022-09-12* I downloaded this app, looking at the reviews. I decided that I would give it a try, but I gave it 10-15 minutes and I already know its boring. First of all, the women and men all look the same. Second of all, poorly made. And lastly, it is boring. All you do is run around and interview people. Please for your sake, don’t download it. **Developer response:** Hello, We are sorry that you do not like the game but we thank you for your feedback. Our future updates will improve the game for you. ### 1/5 — Just… no *2022-07-14* Half the stuff doesn’t load, lots of ads, and just horrible experience. Would not recommend **Developer response:** Hi and thanks for playing! sorry to hear that you are having some trouble with the game. you are most welcome to mail our support ### 1/5 — Unrealistic *2021-10-22* You have four candidates to interview for one job, they all show up, you hire one and they start the job. That doesn’t happen in real life. And nobody’s come to the desk to complain about a coworker microwaving fish, whined about the quality of the toilet paper in the restroom (substandard), or run from me when I tried to get their open enrollment paperwork. In-app purchases are not just liquor options for the manager to drink at their desk while weeping softly in despair. This is not at all a realistic portrayal of an HR manager’s job. **Developer response:** We are sorry to see you are having problems! The performance of the game is a priority for us and something we will continue to optimize. ### 1/5 — Dump! *2021-10-21* This is one dump game. Once you hire your employees, you just move from room to room. Don’t waste your time ### 1/5 — Not intuitive *2021-10-21* Poor directions, not great rendering. Hard to start. Also as an actual HR Manager, I can say this isn’t even close ### 2/5 — Needs an update *2021-10-21* Hasn’t been updated in over a year. Keeps glitching on me and doesn’t allow me to complete an interview. Can see the potential if it worked. ### 2/5 — Horrible *2021-09-28* THIS GAME IS HORRIBLE. You can’t do meetings and you have to fire people left and right and you can’t even get a good person most of the time ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Never again. *2025-03-09* Never again will I be getting this game. I am astonished after playing this because of EVERYTHING that goes on in here. All the ads have been making me upset and furious at the fact that I can’t play the game for five seconds without it going onto Ad. ### 1/5 — One of the worst games ever *2025-02-06, version 2.2* When I played this game for the first time it was fine till I realised every time you do a interview they almost always say the same thing over and over which is annoying and the graphics in game are much worse then the one u see when u scroll up a bit ### 1/5 — Buggy *2024-12-25* The game glitched on the first task! ### 1/5 — Horrible *2024-10-24* Way too many ads. And what’s the real purpose of game if u can’t make money in game. **Developer response:** Hi, sorry for inconvenience due to ads. You can remove Ads by in app purchase. ### 1/5 — Impossible to play too many ads *2024-09-24, version 1.9* Way to many ads sadly looked like a good game too ### 1/5 — You just do the same thing over and over *2024-09-09* The NPCs don’t even change dialogue. All you do is interview the same people who all have the same answers to the same questions you ask over and over again. Its boring and there’s nothing to do. Plus there’s an ad on screen the entire time. Save yourself the time and play something else. **Developer response:** Hi, sorry for inconvenience. Our future updates will improve the game for you. ### 1/5 — Poor *2024-07-29* Game don’t allow u to staff and ad pop ups are permanent ### 1/5 — ? *2024-04-19, version 1.9* Game stops at 31st jan and all it lets you do is leave the office ? ### 1/5 — Ads while playing - literally *2024-03-29* Ads literally going on in the background while playing is pure insanity. They don’t even pop up occasionally during playing (which I would be okay with), but to have the ads playing in the background WITH music WHILE trying to play HR Manager WITH its own music is wild. Poorly designed and thought through. ### 1/5 — Pointless *2024-01-15, version 1.8* Pointless and boring! There no levels to this game. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This game *2022-11-06* This is a amazing game but I feel like this game is more about ads then the actual game like I hate watching ads and every time on this game it’s ad after ad **Developer response:** We are sorry for the inconvenience. To provide free games to our users we have to use ads for monetization. You can play ad free by purchasing our Remove Ads in the app & support us to bring you more fun games. ### 5/5 — This has potential! *2021-07-10, version 1.2* I’m an HR Professional with my BHRM, and aPHR. Hopefully my review can help! First, of all...this has high potential! I think the interviewing process has a great foundation. It accurately depicts candidates with different experience levels, salary expectations, and performance efficiency. There’s one piece missing that I think would add realism. A culture index rating would hit the nail on the head. Since you’re building a company, culture index gives you insight of employee engagement and collaboration. The more your candidate fits into your company culture...the better chance of success! Also if they lack experience and efficiency, fitting this index could lead to the employee becoming a huge success! I think the firing is too cut and dried. In the real world, employees get performance reviews, performance improvement plans, and write ups. Maybe make this feature variable on making the employee improve or fail? Most instances disciplinary action and counseling helps the employee improve and become successful. There should be managers and supervisors for the employees. They sit in on the candidate interviews and provide input. When firings happen, you (HR) are there to witness and assist the employee on final benefits, pay, etc. Managers usually come to you about terminating a employee. Another metric that would be good along with the efficiency would be morale. Like have random scenario pop ups with team building, company events, launches, etc. Morale drives culture and engagement. This is another thing a good HR manager keeps an eye on (quite a few do not, but my critical opinion). The departments need different positions. I noticed when I unlocked the finance department, there were no candidates who were interviewed/hired for accounting. When other departments open up, have applicants with the appropriate titles for that department. Just a minor tweak :) Lastly, employee conflict would add more realism to being a HR Manager. Like sexual harassment complaints, employees complaining about their manager/coworker attitude, and performance. Have investigations and interviews with a final decision. This also determines the success/failure of your company. I know there’s a myriad of tweaks and suggestions more that I wish I could share, but I think these things would point this app in the right direction! I never would have thought a simulator of what I do in the real world would have been made. I would like to see this takeoff, and help people get a inside look of what HR is like! ### 5/5 — Mr *2020-12-02, version 1.2* very good game great 👍🏻 was a good way of playing ### 5/5 — Nice app 😁 *2020-08-09, version 1.1* Cool ### 5/5 — 9.5/10 *2020-08-01, version 1.1* Oh my god! This game is absolutely great, it has a great design and texture, and would definitely play more. The effort into making this as realistic as it is is immaculately.. GREAT! It’s like if you’re in real life taking job interview’s. ### 4/5 — 求中文翻译 *2025-02-01, version 2.2* 求翻译 ### 4/5 — It’s Good but it can be great! *2020-10-25* I like it but somethings are a little bit hard when you have a little bit of interviewing. ### 3/5 — Language *2023-12-01, version 1.8* How to change the language ### 3/5 — Unable too read everything *2021-06-26, version 1.2* The game is good. But when you are hiring you can’t see the whole screen. If I was able to turn my head to see the whole screen it would be a much better game. Please fix this issue. ### 2/5 — Game don’t even work *2024-08-13* It told me to post an ad then when I go to post an ad it doesn’t even let me , this game is trash I meant to put 1 star but it should be a negative 1 star in my opinion. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
