Cool game! Fun and addicting..

### 5/5 — Really nice game

*2020-08-12, version 1.05*

I played this on Android a long time ago. I came back and I don’t regret it.

### 5/5 — HPC

*2020-07-29, version 1.05*

I love HPC. I love their games. Man they are cool!!

### 5/5 — Such a fantastic game!

*2020-07-22*

I didn’t even know this game existed till my dad and I were watching this guys channel late at night. I heard he had a game on the App Store and I was like “Woah that’s awesome! I have to check it out!”. I love everything about the game and if you’re really into this kinda stuff, I’m sure you will love everything about it too! It was a genius idea to make this game, and I’m glad I learned about it lol! I’ve played it like almost everyday because it’s just so fantastic! Love the game!

### 5/5 — Please update and give us more upgrades

*2020-07-13, version 1.05*

The game is really really good install it if you get the Schenectady but we would like more upgrades to get please (install)

### 5/5 — 5/5

*2020-06-08, version 1.05*

Ставлю 5/5 потому-то нрав

### 5/5 — New thing I think would be cool

*2020-05-25*

I think you should add the option to get 50% off when buying the stuff to upgrade your hydraulic  press for like 7.99$ if that’s seems fine to you. :) (pt.2) you should make a rebirth option so you can multiply your amount of cash you get from videos!

### 3/5 — Good to pass time

*2020-03-18, version 1.05*

Fun game

### 5/5 — Fun

*2020-03-02, version 1.05*

So much fun can’t stop playing

### 3/5 — Realistic approach to YouTube comments!

*2020-02-27, version 1.05*

What people don’t get is this isn’t about just the “hydraulic press channels and their views on their fanbase”, it is a realistic depiction of people on YouTube who comment on any content are actually like. When channels get bigger, the hate comments get flooded by the actual fanbase and nice comments or the owners delete the bad comments.

This game made me realize how many people spam, ask for likes, etc on YouTube since now I remember seeing the comments on many different video content

This game is fun! A bit repetitive but it’s still fun!

And that hairpiece was supposed to be funny not a political standing as the comments that are bad were the ones who took it in a political way. Something isn’t political until someone else makes it that way.

### 5/5 — Great

*2020-02-21, version 1.05*

All I can say is great

### 3/5 — It feels kinda boring

*2020-01-29*

It seems like a mini game you would play in a larger game and everything starts to cost a lot of money so you have to spend hours to get one thing you should be able to get in minutes.

### 5/5 — No ads That’s what I love about these games

*2020-01-19, version 1.05*

Love no ads also very fun

### 5/5 — HPC as we know it!

*2019-11-23, version 1.05*

Be Lauri and Anni, and have a crush on each other!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2019-10-05, version 1.05*

Amazing

### 5/5 — Amazing!

*2019-08-29, version 1.05*

It’s super fun!

### 5/5 — Docksmock

*2019-07-26, version 1.05*

Игра очень крутая провел в ней целый день я считаю что ей нужно поставить (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐). Лично для меня минусов нет игра очень крутая спасиба вам большое за эту игру.

This game keeps me entertained wherever I am

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Boring

*2018-12-18, version 1.05*

I got bored of this game within a few hours. Very repetitive and no content

### 1/5 — Eh

*2018-06-17, version 1.04*

Boring

### 1/5 — Serious bug

*2018-02-08, version 1.04*

I love this game but it won't load, it caused my iphone to hard crash it nearly bricked my phone i deleted this game till it gets fixed, this game prompts gem use way touch.

### 1/5 — Nem

*2017-07-29, version 1.04*

Minősíthetetlen

### 1/5 — What a horrible design

*2017-05-13, version 1.03*

Ok until you get to 100k subs when you get no white zones whilst pressing. Very bad flaw

### 1/5 — My honest opinion

*2017-04-30, version 1.02*

The game is bad it's the same thing over and over again and they show comments that that give their opinion without making fun of the youtuber and they make you dislike it bad game

### 1/5 — Typical money grabbing venture

*2017-04-18, version 1.0*

Too focused on In app purchases and adverts between crushes, terrible animation when crushing things, most of them have the same animation too and it's just dull, it costs way too much to upgrade things so it's like you're crushing the same items repeatedly to get 1 credit and it'll cost you 1000 to upgrade the frame for the first time.

Awful app, really dissapointed.

### 1/5 — Müll

*2017-04-17*

Sofort nach dem Intro wird man zum Kauf aufgefordert oder zum Werbung anschauen damit man weiter "Crushen" kann.

### 2/5 — Great Game Until Politics were brought in

*2019-07-29*

Crushing a hairpiece on a head is in a way that looks like the President of The United States is not a message I think app developers should be sending. In these very divided times in America, we don’t need any more division, especially with foreign influence. I expected better. Please remove the “Angry Politician” collab from this otherwise fine game.

### 2/5 — This game is exactly like call of duty

*2017-10-16, version 1.04*

It’s a cheap knock of FPS u can crush bosses and enemies with hydraulic press guns terrible now I get bullied at school

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 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...
