### 3/5 — Amazing game, but some game breaking bugs

*2024-02-09, version 1.55*

This is the first review I have ever left on a game. I would have gave this game 5 stars, if not for a gamebreaking bug that makes my game unplayable unless I fully reinstall. There is a seemingly 1/5 chance that watching an ad will crash my game and then continue to crash every time I launch the app. I still play because I love the mechanics and progression; and if you fix this bug, I’ll change my rating to 5 stars. Thank you!

### 3/5 — Gets too complex too fast

*2020-10-17, version 1.2*

Pretty much what the title said. I also had some issues with the tutorial not functioning— kept telling me to tap in a certain spot to get started but I was never able to get past that screen and had to exit the tutorial. Nice concept, but in practice it puts too much on your plate too quickly.

### 1/5 — Crashing

*2024-09-30, version 1.55*

Game just crashes on launch on iOS18. Would be nice if it was updated…

### 1/5 — Broken

*2024-09-29, version 1.55*

I tried it out and played a little while but I close it and now the game does not re-open. It starts to open then just crashes closed. Unplayable.  Wasn’t any fun or interesting gameplay when it did work either.

### 1/5 — Adds crash the game on iPhone

*2024-09-02, version 1.55*

The game is rather fun for an idle game. Resource management can be a bit annoying in the beginning but overall not bad, but the adds randomly cause the game to crash and become inoperable on iPhone. 2 times production is too good to pass up but the fact it may crash and not allow you to play at all is rather annoying.

### 1/5 — It keeps crashing

*2024-04-27, version 1.55*

The game keeps on crashing after a few seconds when I open the app

### 1/5 — Ad crashing

*2024-03-06, version 1.55*

Still crashes after ad bonus. Another user posted about this issue 8 months ago so doubtful it will be fixed. Game is really fun, but critical bug makes it so I cannot launch the game with an ad bonus.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2024-03-05, version 1.55*

Can’t even complete the tutorial. Don’t bother washing your time

### 1/5 — BROKEN - Immediately crashes!!!

*2024-02-23, version 1.55*

I open it up, it starts to load, and it crashes. Every single time. Avoid this game.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2024-02-15, version 1.55*

Crashes as soon as you open the game

### 1/5 — So bad

*2022-05-06, version 1.52*

It just keeps on kicking me out when I try to open the game fix this

### 2/5 — Could be fun.

*2024-04-16, version 1.55*

I think I would enjoy this game a lot… but there is the glaring issue that so many have pointed out this game is so buggy it’s unplayable :( within the first minute of the game the tutorial breaks at raw material and clay pit. And after being a Mr to progress after skipping the tutorial I manage to get to the coal material which I buy to level one to produce coal… and of course it say it’s producing 1.5 a second but nothing is being gained and no I’m not selling it immediately I have it set to stockpile. Please spend some time fixing your bugs.

### 5/5 — S tier

*2024-10-21*

This is S Tier

### 5/5 — Update issue?

*2024-06-11, version 1.55*

I have been enjoying the game so far, although now I am experiencing inability to login/play. 
 I seem to be unable to login at times, more often than not. Not sure if it’s an update issue, due to occasionally being able to access. Maybe main server is overloaded, not sure. But cool game when it does work.

### 5/5 — Love it, but…

*2023-08-01, version 1.54*

… it’s crashing.  I maxed out my ad bonus and now the game crashes every time it opens.  I can see the screen for a second indicating that the ad collection is on cooldown then the game crashes.  Even if I try to close the cooldown window it crashes.  Hoping it’ll be playable once four hours have passed and the cooldown is gone…

Unfortunate because the game itself is quite fun!

### 5/5 — Outstanding game

*2020-12-08, version 1.4*

This game is insanely immersive and just an overall gem to play. It’s very addicting. I find myself doing another task and totally stopping it to play this game. 10/10 this developer and game is outstanding.

### 5/5 — 5 star your industry

*2020-08-19, version 1.0*

It’s like building your own empire! Who doesn’t like that? Love that I can create a rocket ship and ready for take off!

### 4/5 — Fun gam and technical issue workaround

*2024-02-18, version 1.55*

I really love playing this game. It sometimes will crash when watching an ad and when this happens I have to uninstall the game in order to get the game open again. I suggest to do the log in with in the setting in order to keep your progress because you will need to log into the game when you reinstall it. Even with this issue I love to play the game and have a lot of fun leveling up the resources and factories.

### 4/5 — Good game

*2022-05-29, version 1.52*

I’ve been looking for a good, minimalistic, resource, recipe game, and this is certainly scratching that itch. I just have a minor issue with the X2 function. As far as I can tell it works fine (it’s been going for a while so I can’t tell if its inaccurate), but my issue is with the hours it claims to cover. I THINK with the X 2 bonus, it also multiplies the time the ads too, making it cover 8 hrs per ad instead of 4. By itself that’s ok, but with the promise of plutonium it’s frustrating when you’re expecting to watch 2 ads and only get to watch 1 because for some reason the ad boost increased more than 4 hrs.

### 4/5 — Addictive as hell! BUT…

*2021-09-08, version 1.5*

Addictive as hell, but one you’ve beat the game, that’s it! There’s nothing else and is suuuuuuuuuper lame 😝

### 3/5 — Meh

*2024-04-09*

The tutorial is broken

### 3/5 — Tutorial broken?

*2024-02-29, version 1.55*

Got into the game and started the tutorial. I got to only where it told you to click on “raw materials” at the top and then asked you to click on “clay pit”, and then the tutorial is seemingly stuck here. (And yes, I clicked on clay pit). Seems fun, I hope it gets fixed.
