Because of that the game get more and more boring because you only need to open the game twice a day. When you open the game you can only upgrade a route two times and then the only thing you can do is to close the game. Please fix this :) (for five stars) ### 1/5 — Unity Ads do not close *2022-12-24, version 1.9.2* Utterly disgusting. Deleted after 5 minutes. Do not bother, the developer cannot be bothered to check his ads - his revenue. Doh ### 1/5 — Problems *2020-10-31* Every time I exit it resets my progress **Developer response:** Hi, sorry about the issue. This problem should have been fixed. Please update to the latest version from AppStore. If the problem still occurs, send us an email: hi@fishpondstudio.com and we will sort it out for you. ### 2/5 — F *2024-01-23* How to open the I can’t open game ### 2/5 — Too much of a grind *2022-06-01* There’s never much to expect out of a business sim game on a phone- it’s going to be pay to win, pointless, and is likely just a front disguise so that the developer can mine data/crypto with your bandwidth. That being said, this app fails miserably to make its game bearable enough to actually ignore the previously mentioned expected faults. The income system in this game fluctuates so drastically that you’ll go from making too much and upgrading everything, to making nowhere near enough and having to check the app multiple times a day, just to make one purchase and close it right away. Then, after a week of that, you’ll be able to unlock another hub and start the quick buy part of the game and make your way to the same week long slog you just finished. Dev- fix this, it’s not a hard fix. Scale up income or scale back the ever increasing cost of having to get all airlines to level 100 to get a new hub. There are too many better airline tycoon apps out there. ### 2/5 — Too slow *2020-12-11* Takes way to long to upgrade your routes I know it’s a idle game. But I play allot of idle games where I can do more quicker **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. ### 2/5 — Restart every time *2020-10-31* Why do we have to restart every time, kinda goofy, I want to keep going. **Developer response:** Hi, sorry about the issue. This problem should have been fixed. Please update to the latest version from AppStore. If the problem still occurs, send us an email: hi@fishpondstudio.com and we will sort it out for you. ### 3/5 — Not a bad game *2022-04-12* I just wish there was more to upgrade with gems instead of just time like for instance you can add a small money multiplier for prestige as well as airline reputation or even just upgrading the planes to make more money… you basically made it only to idle and at some point there is no point in keep progressing because nothing changes. ### 4/5 — Not bad *2024-01-19* This is great I love it! ### 4/5 — Great game *2023-05-07, version 1.9.2* I think the game is great but i do think its a but too much of a slow burner. Upgraded get very expensive very quickly and the ticket prices do not increase that much. Even with the x4 event it takes a really long time to upgrade to lvl 100 and unlock a new base. Also i can never seem to get an ad to get the x3 it always says loading but never loads an ad ## Most praised reviews (6 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nice *2023-08-02, version 1.9.2* Good game. I enjoy it ### 5/5 — Nice game *2022-09-19, version 1.9.2* Cool ### 5/5 — Y *2022-05-09* Yes ### 5/5 — Good fun game *2021-03-30* This is a fun game and is easy to learn. Beside a couple spelling errors. It is a fun game. I am excited to see where this game goes and what will be added. ### 5/5 — runs! *2020-11-05, version 1.4* looks like you fixed it, five stars! ### 4/5 — Slow progression *2023-01-31* I like the game as it is a lot of fun when I am bored but once you are about halfway to get the 3rd hub there is nothing you can do but use money to buy advertisements and wait because there are so many expensive upgrades which makes it painfully slow and annoying to make any progress --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
