If you feel we've made progress, we’d love for you to update your rating! ### 4/5 — Good game but… *2026-06-30, version 1.11.26* Food game but please allow the forever cop nd janitor purchase too be a little bit cheaper ### 4/5 — Pretty good and fun to play *2026-06-15* I really wish their was a sandbox mode where you can build your own layout and have infinite money, but other than that I recommend trying it. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the game and appreciate your suggestion for a sandbox mode. Our development team always considers player ideas to enhance the experience. If you have more thoughts on how we can achieve a 5-star rating, feel free to reach out to us! ### 5/5 — Angry *2026-06-14* The game is pay to win. You have to buy gems for the janitor and guard. This sucks **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate your thoughts on the game's mechanics. Our team is always looking to improve, and your input is valuable. We hope you continue to enjoy the game! If you have more ideas, feel free to share them. 😊 Happy gaming! ### 5/5 — Idle Museum Tycoon: Art Empire *2026-05-29, version 1.11.26* I don’t have a lot but I can make it for the next few hours if you’d be willing and you could bring me a few more of them. ### 5/5 — Игра супер👍 *2026-05-27* Игра очень сильно понравилась, интересные места открываются, интересные персонажи, интересная задумка и тема, можно залипнуть на час максимум, очень нравится раскрывать новые комнаты и их ремонтировать, советую 👍😉 **Developer response:** Спасибо за такой теплый отзыв! 😊 Мы рады, что игра вам понравилась и вы наслаждаетесь открытием новых комнат и персонажей. Ваши идеи важны для нас, и команда разработки будет учитывать ваши пожелания. Делитесь игрой с друзьями! 👍😉 ### 4/5 — The game is fun and very cool *2026-05-25* But there are some glitches and systems that are really annoying. Like sometimes the customer become glitched at the entrance or around the museum going back and forth like they can’t decided where they wanna go. And hiring staff in the game making me 5-10$ for staff is crazy. And to top that you only get 1 hour for a janitor and officer and you can’t even hire more officers for the amount of burglars that run among your museum. And the amount of trash that spawns it makes no sense when you never see a customer eat or throw anything there’s just some many things that could be fix so simply but I still haven’t see change. **Developer response:** Thank you for your detailed feedback! We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts on the glitches and staff hiring mechanics. Your suggestions are valuable, and our team will consider them as we continue to improve the game. Stay tuned for upcoming updates! ### 3/5 — Meh *2026-05-17, version 1.11.25* Glitchy and annoying review pop up ### 4/5 — . *2026-05-11* Macht sehr viel Bock aber auch bisschen süchtig und könnte für ein wenig überstimmulierung sorgen. **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für dein Feedback! Es freut uns, dass dir das Spiel viel Spaß macht. Wir nehmen deine Anmerkung zur Überstimulation ernst und werden sie im Team besprechen. Wenn du weitere Ideen hast, wie wir die 5 Sterne erreichen können, lass es uns wissen!

This is a tycoon you supposed to progress they practically force you to buy stuff before your ready or move on to new areas when you haven’t finished progressing the first one (for example) overall has great potential but should allow the game to be what it’s meant for. ### 4/5 — It’s pretty fun *2026-04-18* It’s fun until it’s not For developers please make it more enjoyable by making all the rooms in different places and all of the people a lot nice about the rubbish,like they are the one that put it there. Over all I think it’s a great game but needs some inprovments **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoy the game overall. Your suggestions about room placement and character interactions will be considered by our development team. We appreciate your input and hope you’ll keep enjoying the game as we work on improvements! 😊 ### 2/5 — Zwangsbewertung… *2026-04-14* Ist Ätzend und in meinem Verständnis fehl am Platz **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback! Es tut uns leid, dass das Spiel nicht Ihren Erwartungen entspricht. Ihre Meinung ist uns wichtig, und unser Entwicklungsteam wird Ihre Anmerkungen in Betracht ziehen. Wenn Sie Ideen haben, wie wir eine 5-Sterne-Bewertung erreichen können, kontaktieren Sie uns gerne unter support@pixodust.com. ### 5/5 — review *2026-04-11, version 1.11.25* tuffffff ### 4/5 — There is a copy of this game *2026-04-05, version 1.11.25* Over all, I love this game! It is fun and unique, even if it doesn’t feel as fast as I am used to. However, there is another game, called merge museum, that literally uses the same visuals?? But at the same time, it tweaked it, and all of its original characters are clearly AI. It’s not a good game and it looks exactly like this one?? I’m sorry, I am not the best at describing these things….. ### 5/5 — So good! *2026-04-04* I have played most of the Idle games. I really enjoyed them all. Glad to come across this one which is new for me. Ads are fine, you don’t have to watch them. I usually pay to get rid of them anyway. However being asked to pay extra for janitor and security is a bit much. Edit: there’s a glitch in the 2nd museum. Visitors all get stuck on the steps and can’t enter. Not even the VIP. **Developer response:** Thank you for your fantastic review! 😊 We're thrilled you enjoyed the game and appreciate your feedback on the extra payments and the glitch in the museum. Our development team will take your comments into consideration. Stay tuned for upcoming updates, and feel free to share the game with your friends! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Guests stuck at entrance *2026-07-20* Guests are constantly stuck at the entrance to all museums. They literally layer themselves upon each other at the door glitching. So no one can come in and game can’t be played. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We're sorry to hear about the issue with guests getting stuck at the museum entrance. Our development team will look into this. If you have any more details or suggestions, please reach out to support at support@pixodust.com. Your input helps us improve the game! ### 1/5 — Forced to write review *2026-06-22, version 1.11.26* Here’s your one star review. You should NOT be automatically redirecting people to the review submission form to try and better your ratings. Once was bad enough. Twice or more is ridiculous. If , and when, I want to leave a review…. I will. UPDATE: Fourth time upon section unlock I’m forced to the review page. ### 1/5 — Kiidish *2026-02-13, version 1.11.23* Cleopatra was Greek. ### 1/5 — Do not buy ad free *2026-01-28, version 1.11.23* It still shows ads. It also locks up iPads. ### 1/5 — M’oblige à noter le jeu cnest un ouf lui me fait payer 10 balles directement sans rien demander *2026-01-13* C’est une singerie on me fait payer 10 balles sans rien me demander, maintenant je suis obligé de finir le jeu à 100% , même un tasty crousti c’est moins cher inchallah il me remboursent de cette arnaque **Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour.
