Teacher

There needs to be a way to unlock teacher cards and not only use gems to get them

Unbearable

The game has a typical premise which is fun. I couldn’t make it all the way through the tutorial without the game forcing me to buy something with gems. The game requires you to get medals to hire and upgrade teachers but no matter how many medals you get, you have to “make up for the difference” with gems. I had 20 medals for a 20 cost teacher, game said I had to pay 30 gems because I didn’t have enough resources. So I got 50 medals for the 20 medal teacher. I still did not have enough and had to pay 30 gems.

Even looking at the reviews about a guy who paid for a No-Ad Pass and received almost nothing in return because the game offered no options to gain extra money (from ads) because they were no longer there. Instead it would always suggest him to just pay with gems instead.

Either the devs just havent dont enough beta testing or theyre completely predatory and trying to get someone to pay $20 for a horrible package. Just to keep paying more for the gems they cant produce.

It is okay…

The UI and upgrades are fun, you acquire gems easy enough so you don’t feel starved for using them which is needed for teacher upgrades.

The objectives are somewhat unclear, perhaps a language barrier…an objective will say “upgrade X” but there won’t be anything named X and you have to figure out what upgrade will satisfy the objective. Example: “upgrade passenger flow”, there is nothing about passengers or flow anywhere, this objective is completed by increasing the amount of students who come in and the front desk.
Example 2: the game talks about “RV activities” but there is no RV or anything to do with RV’s anywhere….

Sometimes clicking an objective will bring you to what needs to upgraded but occasionally (in the Japan setting the most) you will brought to something that is not related to objective at all…so either the objective is mis-labeled or it is connected to the wrong thing for auto locate.

Additionally, there are tons of visual issues. The floors/carpets look like they have collision issues for a good example.
Additionally, mini objectives to locate a student with a matching interest has unclear symbols to explain interests, the objective should show what symbol match you are searching for.

However, the worst visual crime is the amount of screen clutter. Holy heck, there is so much stuff popping up, and bordering the screen. I feel like I am being strong armed to going ad free even knowing that much of that clutter wouldn’t go away as it isn’t ads but in-game content. I am just moving on because this game is not yet worth the $20 to see if it really improves.

Worst game ever

The person is lying. This game has ads

Level up, chef use gems

So I have to level up my chef if I don’t have enough gold metal or whatever it is and now I don’t have enough gems that they want you to buy about uninstalling this game.

Was first place in event, app stopped syncing to leaderboard

There are limited weekly events which drop rewards. I had grinded the event this week and was first place, only to see < 2 days of the event remaining it has removed me from the leaderboard, my ranking is bottom 5000+, despite my in game metrics clearly reflecting my progress. So much time and gems invested for the game to bug out like this. I am hoping to receive my rewards accordingly for the effort I had put in.

yeah

does not give enough.

Fun until you don’t get what you earn or pay for

This game was fun until I noticed it was giving me all the medals I had earned. You earn diamonds to use to get medals or you get free boxes that come with medals and then they don’t go to your total count. And unfortunately you have no way of contacting them to fix this problem. Sad!!!

Hi there, we'd love to help if there's any problem or suggestion please contact support@jinshi-games.com

Please give new levels

I absolutely adore this game! But we need new levels or even new maps for the challenges

Amazing Game

I’ve played a lot of idle tycoon games. This has to be top 3 on my list. Still very new with a lot of potential, but already great within itself. 10/10 would recommend to a friend for sure. Thanks guys for not being money hungry and actually giving us the option. I’ll gladly spend money on this game.

Great game but

Its a good game but it is unnecessarily hard if you dont have certain tools to proceed the game is difficult to upgrade anything. Im not sure how to progress

An idle game that doesn’t idle

The game only idles for 2 hrs.
And SOOOO many ads. You have to watch an ad for pretty much every tiny gain.
AND it burns my battery AND makes my phone run hot.
I wish I had good things to say because if it wasn’t for all the above, I’d really like this little time waster.

Waste of £20

I very rarely buy the ad free option but I really liked this game so decided to support the developers and go for it. Once I had bought it and played for a an hour or so, and made it to 2nd place in the weekly competition, I was thrown out of the game and cannot get back in again.
It’s a shame as this is a fun game, but it will no longer open for me. So I will be requesting a refund of my money.

Why did my game turn black ?

It doesn’t want to work anymore 😭

Amazing game but

This game is amazing but when I logged on to do my offline earnings I had 850,000+ and I closed the app accidentally and I didn’t get the money which really annoyed me because I need that.

Great concept but expensive

Why is everything so expensive

glitch

it was a good game for a bit but all of a sudden there was a glitch after ads. i did the egg cracking thing and got a good amount of gems so j watched the two times ad. the ad was already 60 seconds long like it shouldnt even be that long and then after the ad was done, everything froze. i couldnt exit out the ad so i had to refresh the app. i didn’t get the rewards and i have to wait 15 mine for the egg cracking thing to be ready. like it didnt give me my gift but took my turn…deleted the game right after

No good

Too many ads

Eh

Has potential but it’s hard to get gems so I can do anything to get the teachers unless I pay for gems
I only just started I am not invested enough to pay them anything yet

good but could need some improvements

I like this game a lot, but seem to have problems finding where to upgrade stuff that I need to for quests. For example where do you upgrade customers flow? It would be nice to be able to click on the quest and it takes you to the room where southaven to upgrade.
