Gotta watch an ad for every little thing!!🤬 ### 4/5 — Love the game just one issue *2025-11-02, version 3.9.6* I’ve had this game across several devices but I recently downloaded it again on my iPhone 15 and the speaker oval covers where my money is. I can see how much I make per second but not how much I have. That’s the only issue I have ### 2/5 — Freezes *2025-07-30, version 3.9.6* If you want to get free money and click on the yellow stork you have to watch a advertisement. Ok that’s bad enough but most of the time the ads freeze. All you can do is refresh the app. You loose your money as the ad froze. It gets through most of the app ads. Now my screen goes black after it loads. Do not think anyone is working on app. Will have to delete. ### 2/5 — Freezes *2025-04-20, version 3.9.6* If you want to get free money and click on the yellow stork you have to watch a advertisement. Ok that’s bad enough but most of the time the ads freeze. All you can do is refresh the app. You loose your money as the ad froze. It gets through most of the ad also. ### 2/5 — mediocre Egg inc. clone *2025-04-01, version 3.9.6* this feels harsh to say but that’s exactly what it is. i’d love to see a game with original ideas in this art style though, i think it’s cute. ### 4/5 — Please read! *2025-01-26, version 3.9.6* This game is very good, it is different to other idle games and there is lots to do, I haven’t been playing for long but I am using an iPhone and my screen is longer in length meaning that I cannot see my money on my phone screen it would be great if you could fix that, you could move the bar down by a bit or have another place to show money. thanks ### 2/5 — Updates ruined the game *2024-10-21, version 3.9.6* I really used to love this game and I used to play it all the time. I loved the simplicity of it and the style was so nostalgic for me. I just played the game again yesterday and so much has changed. It’s not the same anymore, it constantly bombards you with ads and now there’s new animals as well? It’s not nearly as enjoyable as it was before and unfortunately I’m deleting it because frequently while playing now I have no choice but to watch ads rather than trying to enjoy a game I used to love so much. If they just reverted the game back to how it originally was I think it would get a lot more people playing it. ### 4/5 — Problems, was there an update? *2023-09-06, version 3.9.6* This is my favorite game. I’ve gotten so far and prestiged so many times. I’ve paid for my piggy bank and for more silos. Everything was well and good until I ran out of goals. Shortly after that (today) it won’t let me do anything. My amount of cash says NaN, I can’t make more sheep or buy anything because it says I have no money. I can’t change change levels. Uninstalling and redownloading hasn’t helped. I’m not sure what to do. I wouldn’t really care if it was any other game but I’ve paid more in this game than I ever have before so I’d like to figure out what’s going on please! ### 3/5 — Get so far *2022-10-11, version 3.9.6* Get so far then it crashes. Re uninstalled and installed so many times. Other then that good game ### 2/5 — egg.inc clone *2022-08-18, version 3.9.6* play the game mentioned in the title instead It’s 10 times better🙂 ### 2/5 — Mise à jour ? *2022-07-13* Un peu déçu car je jouais étant plus petit a ce jeu et là impossible de le lancer c’est un écran noir fixe et rien ne se passe … En attente d’un patch ou autre ! ### 2/5 — Poor imitation of egg inc *2022-04-20, version 3.9.6* I’ve been playing egg inc for years and it’s quite boring now that I’m in the upper levels, so I thought I’d try some similar games. This is a a lot like it, but with a couple huge fails. First, don’t bother with this one if you have a smaller phone. I have an SE2 and the text is so small I can barely read it and then I’m often guessing what it says. The eye stain alone makes this one too annoying to play. Second, you are constantly being pestered to watch ads. I’ve played lots of games and this one might be the worst for that. I just can’t keep playing due to these failures. I don’t mind watching ads now and then, but not every few seconds. Once it popped up and told me to take a break and watch an ad and there was no way to close out of it except to close the app, I closed the app and am now deleting it. It was not worth reopening. Egg inc is far easier to see and use the menus and doesn’t pester you constantly with ads. ### 3/5 — Fun but annoying *2021-12-26, version 3.9.6* When are the bonus levels coming. Level 21, bonus field when?? Been coming soon for a very long time ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Forced adverts *2026-02-05, version 3.9.6* IF EVERYONE AVIODS ANY AND ALL GAMES THAT HAVE FORCED ADDS THE GAME MAKERS WILL HAVE A CHOICE TO MAKE OPTION A - REMOVE FORCED ADVERTS AND HAVE SOME PLAYERS SO THERE IS A CHANCE OF SOME PROFIT FROM PLAYERS THAT WANT TO PROGRESS FASTER OPTION B - HAVE 0% CHANCE OF ANY PROFIT BY KEEPING THE FORCED ADVERTS AND HAVING NO PLAYERS!!! THE PLAYERS/DOWNLOADERS HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THE NARRATIVE- d ### 1/5 — Jogo bom *2025-12-23* Jogo é um excelente passatempo mas nunca atualizam deixaram de lado. Cheio de bugs e pessimamente traduzido com bugs até nos menus ### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas *2025-02-18* Écran noir ### 1/5 — Adverts ruin the game *2024-08-14, version 3.9.6* Too many adverts. Do not recommend ### 1/5 — Disappointing Egg Inc rip off *2024-01-13, version 3.9.6* I was initially excited to check this out as I heard this was essentially a rip off of Egg Inc. It kind of is but a much poorer version of it. There are also no updates so don’t even bother as you can’t progress. It’s a waste of time. Def don’t spend any money on it. Just go download Egg Inc for free and buy the $4.99 pro version if you like it. If you do enjoy Egg Inc then go join Cluckinham Palace on discord. You’ll want to thank me later. ### 1/5 — All you do is tap *2022-11-24, version 3.9.6* Yes, all you do is tap your screen. Very dull game. ### 1/5 — Fun game, but forced ads *2022-07-29, version 3.9.6* Title says it all ### 1/5 — Ads make it unplayable *2022-04-19, version 3.9.6* Is this how all the idle games are now? My god. I’m forced to watch an ad every few minutes now. The game itself is fun and interesting, but the overwhelming amount of ads has completely killed it for me. ### 1/5 — Broken, will give 4* when fixed *2021-10-04, version 3.9.6* I played this game 4+ years ago when it was "Tiny Sheep", in my opinion it has gone downhill in how it looks, it was much better before, but more importantly it's completely broken for me. My progress is still there but the barns and the cloning factory are invisible and the button is gone to produce sheep so I can't do anything. Please fix ASAP and keep my years of progress and I will update my review to reflect that. ### 1/5 — absolute game steal. play egg, inc. instead *2021-08-20, version 3.9.6* it’s a complete copy of egg inc. all the upgrades are the same all the features are the same. clearly played egg inc and thought ‘i’ll steal the whole concept but with sheep.’ ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun game. *2025-04-24, version 3.9.6* Brilliant game and very addictive. Only issue is that the amount of money you have is hidden by the iphones front camera so if they could move that then it would be perfect! ### 5/5 — Relaxing *2025-01-05, version 3.9.6* I play this game going to sleep and if someone can tell me how to increase the cheese value please….. I can't get passed it ### 5/5 — ITS AWESOME *2024-01-19, version 3.9.6* YOU CAN GET SO MANY DOGS ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS WATCH A ADD TOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ### 5/5 — SHEEPIES! *2023-04-29, version 3.9.6* I got this game on 4-28-23 and got pretty far on the first day I played it and it was SO edicting (sry if I spelled that wrong) and it was SO MUCH FUN BAA so yeah! ### 5/5 — Fun *2023-03-15, version 3.9.6* Such a fun game but I don’t understand why I can’t make anymore in app purchases anymore on any of Mindstorm’s gaming apps. ### 5/5 — GREAT GAME but one problem *2022-05-15, version 3.9.6* I love the game and all but there is just one thing I dont really like. It used to be named "Teeny Sheep", and that name was decent on god no cap. Then it was "Farm Inc". Now its "Idle Sheep" and I think that it should be named back to "Teeny Sheep". Thanks! It doesnt have to be renamed but, I would like it to be. ### 5/5 — Топ игра *2021-12-16* Игра топ ### 5/5 — Only one issue *2021-12-16, version 3.9.6* Stop putting your forced ad in the middle of the booster (always the eagles) and you’re forced to watch an ad. Meanwhile the timer and eagles are still going It happened twice in less than 2 min! Otherwise game is fabulous ### 5/5 — This game has grown *2021-09-27, version 3.9.6* Wow a lot happened in 2 years It’s looks so much different then I remember it ### 5/5 — did i lose? *2021-07-12, version 3.8.9* I had 1.3 nonillion dollars and i went to do researches and the game went into eternal darkness please fix the black screen. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
