loved this game as a kid still just as good

nostalgia

years ago i used to love this game!
remembering the memories i downloaded it again hoping i can feel the temporary connection again to my old self.

not only am i extremely disappointed in this game. i wonder how i survived sanity while playing something so unfair?

this is definitely intended to be a childs game right? im not mistaking that at all. why is there hours on almost days to wait to 'collect' money? what kind of player experience is this meant to be. horrible, dont waste your time trying to play this at all.

it really is an fantastic concept of a game. i like some of the mechanics of how you play and lay it out. other than that it is so ridiculously stupid. hours to wait for in game coin pay. gems are so hard to get, code is failing and rotting visibly while playing.

i dont understand why people whom make games and take their own time to program them are so greedy and cruel to the players. sometimes you have to remember it is not all about money, the more love you get from users using the app the more support and love and money you would get.
we can all tell that will never be the case lol

Love it

I love this game played it when I was younger. All around a fun great game, the only thing I wish is a way to earn gems like mini games or quests.

No help

I contacted support to help with my missing chihuahua and my ticket was closed with no help or email support. Very disappointed in this game considering that i’m a paying customer since there’s no other way to get gems. I’m considering quitting the game after this but the community is nice. However, there’s no point if the game can barely function the way it should. The forum has discussed this issue of pets disappearing for years so i’m surprised this hasn’t been patched yet. Others said this was resolved through email so I’m not sure why my situation was different or if they just don’t care anymore. Will change my review if i’m offered support.
