Within 30 minutes of play it’s become: open the game, select a thing to build, maybe buy a couple upgrades, then come back in a couple hours. There’s almost no actual gameplay, I spend less than 60 seconds in app each time I open it. Tons are locked behind ads or require expensive purchases. ### 2/5 — Moneys *2025-03-24, version 1.2.200* You’ll eventually have to pay actual money to complete the game, and it is covered with ads. ### 2/5 — Decent until vault issue *2024-03-09, version 1.2.200* Figured they would have fixed it by now……it’s in many reviews. Vault is Maxed and can’t upgrade further. Therefore game progress is stopped since things cost more to upgrade then I can hold. ### 2/5 — Vault *2024-02-14, version 1.2.200* Can’t upgrade the vault to give me more that 5million. Things cost more than that. Tried to contact threw customer support but no reply. Really crappy because it’s a fun game. ### 2/5 — Decent but *2023-12-07, version 1.2.106* Certain things to progress force you to watch an ad. For example, one of the missions is upgrade the hunting grounds from 3 to 4 and you can’t progress until this is done. You can’t earn money and just unlock it, it forces you to watch an ad to upgrade. On top of that, many of the animals on the hunting ground require an ad to unlock even though they are necessary to progress as well. Stop forcing ads ### 2/5 — Progression impossible *2023-11-01, version 1.2.106* Can’t progress. Vault doesn’t hold enough money ### 2/5 — Support has ended *2023-09-24, version 1.2105* I was really enjoying this game until I ran into the bank upgrade issue. Max is $5 million. It stops game progression. I contacted support two weeks ago with no response. Don’t bother playing. ### 1/5 — Can’t go any farther *2023-09-15, version 1.2105* Upgrade my bank and having the same problem can move on cause bank only allow 7 million when upgrade cost 8million smh ### 1/5 — Fix bank *2023-09-08, version 1.2105* Bank too small ### 1/5 — Money grabber *2023-09-07, version 1.2105* I enjoyed the game and even spent money to acquire enough items to complete the game. I have maxed out everything to include the extra hunts on each range and then that’s it. I can not unlock anything else. Feel like I have been cheated out of a lot of money for essentially one level. Hope this gets fixed ### 3/5 — Bugs *2023-09-05, version 1.2105* Really fun game but needs some bugs worked out. Seems like the clothing shop doesn’t check out the customers for one & other bugs ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — ……. *2026-04-16, version 1.2.200* Can’t go past 5 million other things to buy that’s over 5 million can someone tell me what’s wrong? ### 1/5 — Improperly balanced *2025-08-23, version 1.2.200* Game does not let you progress past a certain point. Vault upgrades only allow you to hold your to 5 million, while multiple upgrades cost more than that, making it so you’re just stuck and unable to complete goals. Incredibly frustrating after I’ve spent so long on this game. I’d feel even worse if I spent money. Developers should be ashamed for swindling customers. ### 1/5 — Can’t have background music playing. *2025-08-12, version 1.2.200* Literally unplayable ### 1/5 — Locked behind purchases *2024-12-18, version 1.2.200* You cannot complete the game fully unless you purchase an add on to increase vault size. Ads are a little annoying but not letting users complete a game with spending real money is ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Not Enough Vault Space *2024-11-29, version 1.2.200* I have maxed out the vault to 5 million, but some upgrades need more. There is currently NO way to get these done. Like WTH? ### 1/5 — Forced to pay *2024-10-01, version 1.2.200* Was fun until the bank only aloud up to 5 mil without spending real money Not worth the time ### 1/5 — Forced ads auto 1* and deleted *2024-03-19, version 1.2.200* As you upgrade you will hit upgrades that will require watch an ad. I refuse to support forced ads in any form ### 1/5 — Good game but to many ads *2024-01-14, version 1.2.200* Forces ads way to much ### 1/5 — Advert focused *2024-01-08, version 1.2.106* Here’s another game forcing you to watch ads to progress in the game. It’s annoying and for that reason, I’ve quit and uninstalled the game. ### 1/5 — . *2023-10-02, version 1.2105* An amazing game all in all but I am stuck on the last step where I have to upgrade the shooting room. I have upgraded the vault to lvl 5 and it caps my money at 5 mil but I need 9 mil to do the last step and I can’t find any other way of getting more capacity without spending real money ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect game *2025-07-24, version 1.2.200* If you want a hunting tycoon game GET THISE ONE TRUST ME ### 5/5 — Love the game *2024-09-28, version 1.2.200* Love the game but my vault is at a cap and to finish upgrades it costs more ### 5/5 — Extremely Fun *2024-04-24, version 1.2.200* This game was not to much at first glance but I’ve ended up spending a lot of time on it, love the game but wish u could get more builders without spending real money ### 5/5 — Good game *2024-03-15, version 1.2.200* 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 ### 5/5 — Great game overall but very slight problems *2023-08-30, version 1.2105* Loved the game but the tool shop cashier doesn’t work, the line never moves and gets stuck there, which is unfortunate because it makes it hard to get the traps working. But other than that everything is good and the game is entertaining, makes me surprised that it isn’t more popular ### 4/5 — Pretty good *2025-04-17, version 1.2.200* You can’t see the tanks from the tool shop and that makes it worse ### 4/5 — Great Idle Game/Starts to lag further into the game *2024-05-03, version 1.2.200* Game is great. I enjoy playing it during my down time. The game does start to lag quite a bit as you get further into the game. ### 4/5 — Decent *2024-03-16, version 1.2.200* Pretty decent game, nothing special. Once you get max level vault upgrading is kinda hard because you have to wait for your money to recoup. I suggest allowing it to go over 5 mil🤷‍♂️. ### 3/5 — Laggy *2024-01-08, version 1.2.106* Might just be my phone, but every time I open the app it starts to lag really hard because of all the animals, cars, and people moving around. Besides that decent game but need to spend money to finish everything and it doesn’t take long to get there. ### 3/5 — Passes time *2023-09-12, version 1.2105* Fun and simple game but quite a few bugs, crashes unexpectedly at times and if I use gems I’ve earned in game to speed up construction it takes more than necessary (I.e. something costs 42 and I have 141 but the game takes 126 and leaves me with 15) happens too often to enjoy the game… --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
