Here’s why: 1. There are just so many ads once in a while!!!!!😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😭😭😭 2. The in app purchase button never disappears even when you get the full version! These are the reasons why I don’t like that game. Do not get this app. Don’t even get games from Beansprites, they will be bad and make you feel angry and sad. 😢 Please make all the ads go away and get rid of the in app purchase button when you get the full version. If you do so, I will rate five stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you for reading 📖 my review and do what I said in my review. Love, Sunshine and rainbow cats 🐈 ### 1/5 — لعبه يع مما هي حلو كل مسكره اكره لعبه ههههههه وع *2020-06-18, version 1.1* وععععع ههههههههههههههههههه ### 1/5 — اللعبه مو حلوه *2019-08-02, version 1.1* احلى الأشياء مسكره مرهههه خايسه اللعبه🤢🤢👎👎 ### 1/5 — No *2019-06-27, version 1.1* Noooooo ### 1/5 — Horrible *2019-04-16, version 1.1* This app is not good at all I don’t really recommend playing this game ### 1/5 — The most dangerous game in the world is fortnite *2018-11-01, version 1.1* I love fortnite I hate this game so much ### 2/5 — No *2021-10-18, version 1.2* I hated this game I mean you have to pay to explore I mean come on if you want better games don’t add money to it kids need better they need explore don’t you guys notice that parents have to pay money just so there kids can explore that’s just stupid we had to be In a pandemic kids needed to explore but guess what there parents had to pay. ### 2/5 — I like the idea, need improvement *2020-07-03, version 1.1* I used to think that this was an awesome app. It has it's pros and it's cons. The pros are, I really like the idea of this app. And you did a great job with the waterpark app. I love how you gave us a lot of stuff free and it has creative graphics. But, while there are pros, there are also cons. The cons are, the kids are obviously adults at a different size, and the characters change every location, which makes it EXTREMELY difficult to do a decent role play. Another thing is, "kids" sometimes have brown faces and white bodies, or vice versa. That's all I have to say about this app. ### 2/5 — Very bad *2019-07-27, version 1.1* Bcause you only get a copol of games ### 2/5 — VERY BAD *2018-05-11, version 1.0* Does not even come on all it says is made with Unity !!!!!!!! 🌪🌪🌪😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡👺👿👿👿👿👿👿😿😾😡👿😾😿🌪👺👺👺👺❣ ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This is for cookie🦄🦄 *2022-05-01, version 1.2* If the name cookie is cookie swirl c I am your huge fan. Before I even watched one of your videos I loved your videos. ### 5/5 — Cool *2020-06-01, version 1.1* This game is super fun and my little sister loves it I hope there is more updates and cool things like that u don’t have to change it because it is already super cool ### 5/5 — Great but... *2019-10-03, version 1.1* I think this game is great. It’s very fun and let’s kids use their imaginations. The only problem I have with this game is when you go to different locations you are only givin a specific number of people. Sometimes you get four adults and two kids but you wanted to pretend a bunch of kids are going to the theatre together. I think you should show all the avatars and be able to select which characters you want to use in this scene. Thank you for making such and entertaining game and I hope you read my suggestions! ### 5/5 — Good *2018-08-24, version 1.0* Haven't played yet but all the others are great can't wait to play it!!! ### 5/5 — Very good❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ *2018-08-15, version 1.0* Make mmmooorrreee. ### 5/5 — Amazing game! *2018-06-09, version 1.0* This app is really well made. I like the idea of this game, you can just like create your own kind of city! It’s very colorful, i spent 2 hours playing it😌 ### 5/5 — Interesting game! *2018-06-07, version 1.0* I like playing games like this but My Pretend in NY is the best one. There are a lot of interesting locations and they’re so colorful. The design and music is really cool too. I’ll never get bored of this game! ### 5/5 — Perfect for kids and helps their parents to relax! *2018-06-02, version 1.0* Now it’s favorite game of my daughter and she dreams of visiting NY! Also it’s amazing timekiller for long journeys, that won’t let you and your kids get bored. Sometimes I relieve stress after work by discovering new locations in My Pretended Summer in New York City. Central Park is my favorite, when my daughter prefers Brooklyn Bridge because of donuts and fast zooming cars. What I also like in that app is characters design ‘cause they’re always smiling. Also my daughter knows NY really well now. All in all, I recommend My Pretended Summer in New York City to all people who want to relax and enjoy bright colors, views of NY or their kids have nothing to do. By the way, it’s the best game of My Pretended series to my mind. ### 5/5 — It's like an excursion in New York! *2018-05-27, version 1.0* This game looks like real excursion in New York, for kids, of course, but still. Broadway, Brooklyn Bridge, Central Park there are all these famous places in so cute and colorful graphic. ### 5/5 — Another one good game from My Pretend series *2018-05-27, version 1.0* My kids like playing My Pretend game series. This one isn’t an exception. They like exploring something new and it’s really useful, because kids learn how to use the map or where situated interesting sights. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
