However, when I closed the game (swiping up to close the app) the upgrades were not working. I was really disappointed when the leech upgrades were not working at all in the later scenarios. I thought it was just a glitch at first so I deleted then re-downloaded the game, but got the same issue when I closed the app. I am heavily considering deleting the game despite paying for the global warming pack ### 5/5 — fix it *2026-07-24, version 2.1.6* When I get to land my hurricanes keep dying ### 4/5 — Peak, one problem tho *2026-07-23, version 2.1.6* This game is actually so fun. The scenarios are unique, and once you get more of the upgrades it gets a bit more easier. However one problem is that the global warming section is behind a paywall meaning that you can’t do the last scenario quest too. Other than that this game is very good ### 5/5 — I love this game *2026-07-19, version 2.1.6* Because it is the first time I have seen a hurricane game and I love to play the levels sometimes it is hard to pass the levels but that ### 4/5 — Needs some updates but a good game *2026-07-17, version 2.1.6* It’s a good game but it could use some updates not bugs also I don’t really like the ads ### 5/5 — Good, except for one thing. *2026-07-16, version 2.1.6* This game is awesome, however please fix the bug where you can’t use upgrades if you play for when day, then close the app and play again, also I need the hacks that graystillplays have. ### 2/5 — Needs work *2026-07-16, version 2.1.6* A boring game when the start is so slow. If you don’t know what you’re doing or how the mechanics work you’ll likely get stuck in the beginning continually dying and not being able to upgrade your storm. Fun goes by quick since you can only do so much just like most games of this genre. No fast forward button so you’re stuck watching a ball of wind slowly go across the map and the constraint around the turning mechanics are really painful. They don’t recharge fast enough to properly steer away from land masses to get bigger and to stay away from the walls of the game. Overall the game needs to work on its mechanics and how to teach the players how to play before going after its fan bases money. ### 1/5 — Upgrades won’t save when i leave the game *2026-07-12, version 2.1.6* I grinded for 2 hours getting all the upgrades and when the game restarts when i play it a day later all important upgrades are GONE even though its activated in the menu. FIX IT ### 2/5 — Eeeh ok *2026-06-27, version 2.1.6* The game is fun until you leave and then you return and ZERO progress saved ## Frequently asked questions about Hurricane Outbreak ### What is Hurricane Outbreak?
