### 5/5 — Classic

*2025-06-20*

I’ve played this multiple times very old school game I’m glad it’s still around!

### 5/5 — Best casual game

*2024-02-19*

This game gave me a view of how to run a press channel and I got to give respect to the man because is challenging I now understand why you don’t just press the items willy nilly

### 5/5 — Love it

*2022-06-19*

There are so many items to crush and by the way the plates are ASMR

### 5/5 — Doesn’t fit screen

*2022-03-17*

I gave this five stars because the game is great and all but when I used it on my iPhone XR the icons were out of place🫠 make a new version to fit the icons

### 5/5 — Good

*2021-12-27, version 1.05*

Good

### 5/5 — GOOD 👍

*2021-10-24, version 1.05*

AMAZING 🤩 YES 👍

### 5/5 — Großartiges Spiel!

*2021-08-29*

Das Prinzip ist super simpel: du bist „quasi“ ein YouTuber, der durch selbstgemachte Videos, in denen du mit einer Hydraulik-Presse allerlei Gegenstände zerquetscht, Clicks, Views und Abonnenten zu erhalten. Nach und nach verbesserst du dein Equipment, bekommst Collabs mit Firmen und kannst immer „spannendere“ Gegenstände unter deine Presse legen.

Das Tolle daran: Es wurde sich SO viel Mühe gemacht, das Spiel authentisch wirken zu lassen. Ab und zu bekommt man zu einem Video ein kleines gesprochenes Intro oder Outro, und es fühlt sich überhaupt nicht gestellt an! Man fühlt sich wirklich ein wenig wie ein ganz normaler Typ mit gebrochenem Englisch, der einfach seine Videos dreht. Die fiktiven Kommentare, die man von den „Zuschauern“ bekommt, lassen einen oftmals Schmunzeln.

Was ich aber wirklich am besten finde: Die Entwickler des Spiels sind überhaupt nicht „geldgierig“ wie ein Großteil anderer free2play-Titel! Will man keinen Cent ausgeben, kann man wunderbar spielen. Nur ab und zu, So alle 10 Spiele, kommt ein obligatorisches 30 Sekunden Video, was vollkommen okay ist! Wer was komplett kostenlos haben will, soll doch bitte Kastanien pflücken gehen. Ich habe 2€ investiert für den kleinen Reparatur-Buff, der nach jedem Einsatz der Presse angewendet wird und erhalte seitdem auch keine Werbung mehr. Man wird auch nicht ständig zum Kauf von irgendwelchen Microtransaktionen aufgefordert, sondern man muss wirklich aktiv in den Echtgeld-Shop gehen, um zu sehen, dass man überhaupt Geld ausgeben kann.

Tolles Spiel, tolle Entwickler, bitte macht weiter so!

### 5/5 — Rising superstars.  =]...

I love these kids and their channels. So simple an idea but it’s so much fun and often really interesting results. Who would have thought. Silly game but it’s fun...
