### 1/5 — Not Worth It

*2026-03-26, version 1.2.0*

I paid for this app and can’t even access all of it. One element is supposedly found in level 47, but the game ends with level 45. I messaged App Support and got a reply after a long duration that the person working on my claim is very busy and working on other claims, but would get to me as soon as they could. That was three weeks ago. If you can’t access the full game after paying for it and get no support, it is not worth it.

### 4/5 — Pop Ups

*2024-10-06, version 1.2.0*

I like these games, but the description boxes that pop up every time a supply is picked up are annoying. They cover part of the roads and destinations as play proceeds. Wish I could turn them off. I know what I’m picking up & don’t need the info every single time.

### 1/5 — They Cheat you.  Don't pay them.

*2024-07-10, version 1.2.0*

Completed 45 levels with 3 stars = 135. Completed 5 bonus levels with 3 stars = 15. So 150 stars but it never goes past 147. Which means they cheat you out of any extras you are supposed to get for paying them.  They told some guy 4 YEARS AGO they were going to fix this very thing since he had the same problem.  (Look him up.  His was a 2 star review)  That's how honest they are.

### 2/5 — Good fun

*2023-11-30, version 1.2.0*

Good fun but won’t load properly after level 20. Very annoyed. I’d try and get a refund but support is rubbish.

### 5/5 — Best one yet

*2023-06-25, version 1.2.0*

My favorite version so far.  I’m playing it for the second time.  Love the graphics!  Kudos to the artists.

### 1/5 — Bin sehr verärgert !

*2023-01-16*

Habe das Spiel gekauft! Doch in Level 14 braucht man mehr Gold, als zur Verfügung steht. Habe das Level mehrmals gespielt, finde aber keine Lösung. Was ist da los? Kann mir einer helfen? Ansonsten möchte ich gerne mein Geld zurück. Kann ja auch sein, das der Fehler bei mir liegt!

### 5/5 — 好きです

*2023-01-15, version 1.2.0*

このシリーズを楽しみにしています。新作も出して欲しいです。

### 5/5 — Fantastic game, but seems to have a major defect

*2022-10-13, version 1.2.0*

I have completed all 45 levels plus the five bonus levels all with three stars. But my score says I have only achieved 147/150 stars, even though I clearly have 150. Also, I have not been able to achieve all of the awards due to this defect. It’s very disappointing not to be able to achieve all the awards of the game :(

### 2/5 — Constantly crashes

*2022-06-06, version 1.2.0*

The game constantly crashes before I can play a level. I select the level I want and watch an advert in order to access it and nearly every time the game crashes at the end of the advert. I used to be able to get in to the level on the second or third try (i.e after watching the ad 2 or 3 times) but I have given up completely now as I’ve tried 6 times to access level 16 with no luck. I usually purchase the ad free version of games but decided not to based on the reviews about crashes etc and am v glad I didn’t pay for this!

### 2/5 — Level 14

*2022-03-19, version 1.2.0*

It appears to be impossible to complete this level and to progress as there is no means of getting enough gold ?! Please advise - thank you
