Another money grab mobile game.

loved the PC version, but this is ridiculous. In the original game, you paid once. Here, you have to pay every single time you want seeds and you’ll need them constantly after selling your plants

Bad in app purchases

Just make the game cost money… no need for pay to win game currency that doesn’t even exist in the original PC version

Restore purchases

Recently upgraded my iPad & I had a lot of plants / seeds / money / tokens & all that great stuff. How can I restore my previous game on my new iPad ? i don’t have the old one to play on it anymore. Please help meee.

Update game pls

I really love playing this game. It’s relaxing and etc. a few updates would be nice tho. Please do not get rid of this game, BOOOOOOSTING GAME

Time

Game is good but takes way too long to sell

Meh

Downloaded it for the memories. Didn’t get the memories, only asked for money.

You have to buy plant bucks

4 stars because you still have to buy plant bucks with real money. The PC version you Don't Have to spend money for upgrades. Hope that changes.

Pay to play only,don’t get it

They change it

Very Nostalgic.

I like this game, haven’t played it since I was a little kid until I randomly found it on here some days ago. Is there any other way to get plant bucks without having to purchase them with actual money? I don’t remember it being that way, but it has been a while since I played.

20 year old game, they added microtransactions. 1/5 stars

No upgrades to anything, same basic game, now with added microtransactions. Gave it 5 stars so you will see it. 😡😤🤬

Not mobile friendly

I loved this game when it first came out on PC. Sadly it doesn’t translate to iPhone as you can move things into storage.

Dead plants-trash

Thankfully I didn’t spend money. Terrible Apple adaptation with grabbing items you didn’t intend, trash not working now. No trash means cannot progress in the game. What a massive disappointment

classic phone game

no big gimmick just good quiete short gameplay

NOT FREE

Fun game, but you can’t win without plant bucks that you purchase with real $—they should just offer a free game with ads or be honest and tell people it costs money or charge up front.

You could win the old pc game by earning bucks. I kept racking up coins on this app, but no way to earn bucks without buying them. Lame!

Has potential

This has the potential to be a really good game but like everybody else is saying- the plant bucks are ridiculous. You would have to spend quite a bit to complete the game fully. I understand money has to be made somewhere but I’m pretty sure I paid 0.99 for the ‘full’ game already (don’t quote me). I think if you used the plant bucks for speeded growth and other non-essential but useful items, it would be better. Even if you were able to earn a very small amount of plant bucks by having an option to watch an ad if you choose. You will still have impatient people who will buy your bucks and those who overspend their coins and need to buy treatments. Most people simply can’t afford the amount of money being asked for and lose interest once they realise they can’t complete the game without. I feel like you’re actually doing yourself out of money here. If I had to spend on bucks just once I’d have probably bought them but it’s too much to keep buying in order to complete the game, so I haven’t at all. Such a shame because it’s fun and has potential. Please fix this. It might even do you a favour and earn you MORE money.

So peaceful and cute

Everyone complaining about game taking too long is missing the point of the game!! It’s the experience of opening a plant shop, and starting from the bottom to work your way up to better things, which makes selling faster and stuff like that. Truly such a great game once you learn to enjoy it

The Illusion of Freedom

This is genuinely a very fun game. I really enjoy Last Day of Work’s games in general, and I can easily say that they have been a big part of my gaming life from a very young age. That being said, I have to not recommend playing Plant Tycoon. This game gives you the illusion of a potential victory. The only way that you can acquire one of the vital forms of currency in this game, even in the free version? Paid. And not just in a this-currency-takes-so-long-to-accumulate-that-you-may-as-well-buy-it-with-real-money sort of paid, I mean you cannot acquire any of this currency unless you pay actual, real-world money for it. If you are not going to adequately title this with a lite version or something, then I don’t really see the point in calling it a free version of Plant Tycoon. It’s just disappointing.

I love this game

Can we get a new update or a similar new game

Love this game

We should be able to see all the plants we have collected that would be a pretty awesome feature to add love the graphics it’s so calming

Restarted without permission

This game was great until it restarted FROM THE BEGINNING without me asking it to.
I lost money because I had purchased bucks, I lost all my supply upgrades, collections, seeds and my progress.
This is ridiculous and if I could give zero stars, I would. It’s just not okay.
