I want to be able to prestige/reset with a bonus. So next time I restart I will have a bit of a head start. Lacking a lot of components. ### 2/5 — Слишком скучно и однообразно *2018-06-05, version 1.0.7* Игра на 15 минут, дальше тошнит от однообразия ### 4/5 — I hit 1 million worth *2018-05-28* I hit one million net worth and money, and I was aspecting something cool to happen, but no. I love the game but after a while it got really boring. Maybe make the make level of the last thing. I think it waS MKTG or something more than 20 level, and make the equipment more than 9, I think once you hit 1,000,000 net worth you should be able to upgrade more. And the maxed items should increase on how many you can have. I played for 2 hours and I think 50 mins. Only because I thought you would level up or move to a better factory or something when you get your money or your net worth to 1 million. I really hope you can add this in or make it so we can get a house and decorate it with things we buy with the money, because at one point you have so much money and you cant do anything with it. Thanks for reading and maybe implementing it. ### 3/5 — Middle of the road *2018-05-26* Not a lot of explanation as to what to do, so I’m not sure if it’s user error or simplicity that’s getting to me. Once you cap your marketing, which I did in 40 minutes, you can no longer make a higher margin. Purchasing equipment ends at level 9, and then it’s just constantly purchasing supplies, manpower, and storage space. Wish there was more depth to it, but I hit 1,000,000 in under two hours and got nothing for it, it just keeps going. Started a different merchandise, but it’s the exact same thing for every piece of merchandise, so while it was fun for 2 hours, I’ve deleted it. It’s not a true idle game either, you must have it open to progress. It pauses if you close the game. ### 2/5 — Ehh... *2018-05-25* So this game is kind of cool. It allows you to try to get as much money as possible while also trying to keep up with supply or demand. You can play with any type of ‘merchandise’ and make it to a million. However, it’s not an idle game, meaning as you’re playing it you have to pay attention. It’s...tedious. It has the appearance of an idle game as well but you can’t not pay attention to it. It also plays ads all the time as you play. Then, it asks if you want to watch more ads for a bonus. Overall, it’s a fun-ish game, but it’s not something I think I’ll keep on my phone for long. ### 3/5 — Suggestion *2018-05-25, version 1.0.7* Make it so we can expand our empire to hold all types pf merch items and manufacture them at once! It would be even more fun! Also maybe make each item upgradable in some cool ways! ### 4/5 — Good game *2018-05-25* I’ve played for an hour or so now. I am really enjoying the game. The initial start wasn’t really explained but pushing the question marks fills you in. The game is similar to other games I’ve played following a concept like Paperclips only I feel like it’s missing something. About 30-45 minutes into the game depending on your choices you get stuck in this 20 minute loop of trying to buy materials at the right price. You are now producing more product than you can sell at 100% demand and nothing you seem to do matters anymore. All you are doing is trying to keep up with your production trying to supply them with materials. There needs to be some kind of upgrade or something at this point in the game, you can continue to upgrade warehouses but now you get no more equipment and more man power would be useless at this point because you can’t even sell what you are making now. Next choice is to upgrade marketing but the prices get high and keeping up with material demand makes saving very slow. This is in no way a negative review. I personally really like the game and want to share my experience with the devs. I look forward to further updates ### 4/5 — Pretty fun *2018-05-25* Game is great and I was into it pretty hard as first. A couple design things I’d like to question though. Buying equipment caps at level 9 which increases speed. Upgrading warehouse says it increases manpower and equipment levels while it only keeps upgrading manpower as equipment is capped. Another thing is I’m on 100% public demand and my loot bags are constantly at max yet I can still upgrade manpower over 100 levels. It seems like a waste to upgrade it anymore as it’s currently keeping me at max loot bags yet there doesn’t appear to be a cap for that. I know the game just came out and I do like it but some of these choices seem odd to me. Hope to see updates. ### 2/5 — Ad so annoying *2018-05-25* If you want players to play this game, better not remind them to play final fantasy in the ad every other minute ### 3/5 — Review *2018-05-25* It’s an ok game, but once you hit a certain rank in marketing, which increases the demand for whatever you’re selling, you can no longer level it. This means you can’t set your sale price on an item much higher without severely limiting your ability to progress. If the sole goal is to see how fast to get to a million, I can see this game getting really old really quick. This may be bug and if it is I’d say skip it until the bug is fixed. ### 1/5 — What’s the point? *2018-05-24, version 1.0.7* It’s fun at the beginning but at the part where you get one million dollars. You just get an achievement. That’s it. No prestige. No nothing. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I h8 it *2019-08-04* It’s such a bad game smh(sucking my hamster) ### 1/5 — Worthless ad farm game *2018-05-30, version 1.0.7* Concept was interesting. Played for about two hours and couldn’t make money any faster so just sat there watching a popup ad you can’t turn off. Realized this game is nothing more than ads and waiting on money to come in once you reach the max. Garbage. ### 1/5 — You get an ad, you get an ad, EVERYBODY GETS AN AD *2018-05-29* Ads 👎🏻 Slow as heck. Lost interest and deleted. Played for 12 minutes, get around 4 ads. Are you kidding me??? ### 1/5 — NO *2018-05-29, version 1.0.7* NO DAB ### 1/5 — More! *2018-05-28, version 1.0.7* It would be nice if you could actually play the game!! Most things you can’t upgrade past level 20 like the marketing or even level 9!!! We want more out of this game!! ### 1/5 — Can you even consider this a game? *2018-05-27, version 1.0.7* In terms of fun, this game fall somewhere in between watching the grass grow and watching paint dry. In fact, both of those other activities may be more worth your time than this game. Essentially the ONLY thing to do in this game is click the 'purchase materials' button every min or so. Besides that the game plays itself entirely(no exaggeration). Additionally, when you exit out of the game it 'pauses' you in time, so you can't make any progress unless the app is open. Please save yourself the time and swipe right for this game. ### 1/5 — Ads ads ads *2018-05-25, version 1.0.7* This game is painfully slow to start, turns boring fast. The ads never end. I tried to enjoy, uninstalled. Tips? Seriously? If you want money and support, please give a well thought out game first. I will spend hand over fist. ### 1/5 — Not a good game *2018-05-25, version 1.0.7* I don’t like this game it’s 2 babyish I waited like 3mouths And turns out Its not good ### 1/5 — Not good *2018-05-25, version 1.0.7* Pre ordered it but haven’t been able to download the game at all. I was looking so forward to play it. ### 1/5 — Boring and slow *2018-05-24, version 1.0.7* Gets very boring very fast. Good concept but way too slow and the ads become annoying. Respect for them as I know they pay bills. Was hoping for a good game here. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good *2018-09-23* Nice ### 5/5 — My go to TYCOON game! *2018-08-06, version 1.0.8* Perfect boredom quasher for those long airport/train queues! Love both the mechanics and graphics! 👍🏼👍🏼 ### 5/5 — So much fun! *2018-08-02, version 1.0.8* Yessss! This new version made things perfect! It’s so much fun! Their Pocket Arcade game is awesome too. Keep it up! ### 5/5 — Very good but a couple annoyances *2018-06-16* If you like tycoons you’ll love this game I’ve had fun playing it but there are 2 annoying things when you first load on you have to watch the whole merch tycoon thing drop from the sky even though the play button is there also it turns your music off if you have it in the background but that’s it besides that I really enjoy this app ### 5/5 — Great but lets see more *2018-06-05* I got this game the minute it came out, I had it on pre order for a few weeks. I played the game for 2 hours and got bored. Its repetitive and there isn't much to do. It would be cool to see more things to do within your merch factory. I beat the game in 3 hours of playing it. ### 5/5 — Great game for young entrepreneur! *2018-06-01, version 1.0.7* It's a simple game yet educational at the same time. Good job! ### 5/5 — Love it!!! *2018-05-26, version 1.0.7* Seriously, you should try thia game! ### 5/5 — Great *2018-05-24, version 1.0.7* Its really fun ### 5/5 — Love it!❤️ *2018-05-24, version 1.0.7* Very addictive game. All in all good game I’ve been playing it for an hour. No issues I’ve found. Good job👍 ### 5/5 — Waiting a few months *2018-05-23* Since I put it on preorder I’ve been waiting and today it popped up on my iPad. I’ve been playing it for a few hours and I’m loving the games haven’t come across any glitches yet 10/10 would recommend, if your below 14 years old. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
