### 3/5 — Good and bad

*2024-04-28*

It’s a good, relaxing, fun game. The bad thing is it often refuses to load adverts to unlock next level. Keeps telling me to check internet connection even though I know everything is OK my end. This has made me reluctant to buy the game outright in case the purchase goes wrong too.

### 2/5 — Disappointed ☹️

*2024-03-22, version 2.0.7*

I couldn’t click on the items….. not an instant tap only got to level 2 too frustrating

### 4/5 — Good but needs another sequel.

*2022-12-10*

These Roads of Rome games are really fun. However once you beat the game there is no where to go. We need another sequel and very soon.

### 4/5 — Très bon jeux

*2022-09-12, version 2.0.7*

Mais le son ne fonctionne pas même après avoir ajusté les paramètres

### 3/5 — Roads to Rome

*2021-10-01, version 2.0.7*

I have all of these games luv them but Roads to Rome New Generation won’t even open any more even though I paid for it also Roads to Rome 2 won’t work either what’s going on please fix.            Regards JY

### 2/5 — iPad glitch?

*2021-08-21*

I enjoy this series and the publisher’s games in general but on the iPad pro there doesn't seem to be a way to see how many resources it will take to fix an item or upgrade. I’m guessing it’s a hover on desktop with a mouse? Anyway makes it a lot less fun. Plus doesn't seem to work with the apple pencil.

### 2/5 — way to many ads

*2021-05-29, version 2.0.7*

ican understand having ads but never seen a game with this many ads after every level cant enjoy the game unles u spend money

### 1/5 — unplayable on iphone xr

*2021-01-06*

i played the first three RoR games multiple times so i think i like and know the game principle. this part however is not playable at least on iphone xr because sometimes it takes up to 10 taps to select a target. most annoying considering that you are playing on time. then the fonts are so small that even with glasses i can’t read the level objectives - annoying when you don’t know what’s missing. although there is lots of space right and left - why not write objectives there. so instead of being fun, the game just makes me angry. sad.

### 1/5 — Stressful and very repetitive

*2020-11-17*

I only played a few levels but I found it stressful being on a tight schedule and having to constantly rush, rush, rush...there is a “relax” mode, but it was locked...I assume one has to pay for it...pay just not to be stressed by a game...rotflol....I am uninstalling

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2020-11-01*

The ‘watch advert to unlock a level’ doesn’t work (and this happens on most of your games). I’m not prepared to pay for games with such a low rating and reviews reporting so many faults. Disappointing as I love your games but I’m unable to play most of them anymore.

### 2/5 — Ads not working

*2020-10-25*

I really enjoy this game however I now can’t play as the ads don’t work.....

### 1/5 — Almost unplayable

*2020-10-09, version 2.0.7*

As others have complained, the tooltips stop appearing a moment or two into most levels. It is nearly impossible to play a resource management game in which you cannot find out what resources are required. A waste of money.

### 3/5 — Frustrating

*2020-08-24*

Had this game on laptop, now tells me not paid for also try as I might some of the hidden objects are impossible to find.!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-04-25*

Just downloaded and it won’t let me click on the button to start the first episode.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! This issue was fixed. We will be grateful to you for the positive evaluation of our game.

### 2/5 — App keeps crashing

*2020-04-24, version 2.0.7*

I’ve updated the phone, deleted and reinstalled the app, there isn’t an app update, I’ve restarted the phone. Nothing.

### 1/5 — Stürzt ständig ab

*2020-04-23*

Fast 5€ für ein Spiel, das bestenfalls hängt, aber nur noch abstürzt so wie alle Spiele von Qumaron. Was ist los mit euren Produkten?...

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! This issue was fixed. We will be grateful to you for the positive evaluation of our game.

### 1/5 — Useless, mouse does not work

*2026-03-15, version 2.0.7*

This game is useless on my Mac init.  I have been running the game on PC for years.  On Mac mini, mouse clicks simply don’t work.

### 1/5 — Started leider nicht mehr

*2026-01-01*

… und ist daher unspielbar geworden. - Schade.

### 1/5 — Won’t launch

*2025-07-26, version 2.0.7*

Game won’t launch. Just a blank Qumaron screen. Repeated emails to company for help are ignored. Should be banned from the App Store

### 1/5 — Fix the game??

*2025-02-11, version 2.0.7*

Are you going to fix the game? It no longer responds to the Apple Pencil!

### 1/5 — I used to love this game!

*2024-06-13*

Every now and then I come back to see if by some miracle, the developer would have trashed the whole thing and started again. Really, stop beating this dead horse and start again. Rebuild the entire thing. Don’t try to fix this fossil because every time you fix one thing, twelve other things go wrong. Please, make whole new version for 2024 that works on all platforms. A lot of people would play it.

### 1/5 — Defective: will not even open

*2023-06-04, version 2.0.7*

This used to be a great game. I played it twice. Now it has developed a defect and will not even open. This developer sells games for money and then does not support them in any way and just lets them become defunct. Over and over. It has happened now to several of my games from this developer. They don’t tell you before you pay that the game will only work for a few months. How are they allowed to keep selling these games in the App Store for money when they don’t even work? I have reported them to Apple, as they appear to be crooks.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2021-12-02, version 2.0.7*

Normally I enjoy these games, but this one is unplayable. Frequently the interface will not allow you to select a resource to collect so time is lost having to select a different one and am now unable to continue the game as an obstacle right at the start of the level is not selectable even when I have enough resource

### 1/5 — The screen is not sensitive so the game doesn’t work very well

*2021-11-12, version 2.0.7*

Is this version good for an iPad? I have to pound the screen to get it to act. Most of the time it doesn’t act. What’s wrong with it? I don’t have trouble with my other Qumaron Games, just this one.

### 1/5 — Gold coins

*2021-09-27, version 2.0.7*

Not enough gold coin to finish level! How can I get my money back? I purchased the game and now I can’t continue! Not happy!

### 1/5 — Fehler im Level Episode 3, Lvl 5

*2021-06-27*

Bis dahin ein sehr unterhaltsames Spiel. Leider lässt sich Episode 3 ü, Lvl. 5 nicht lösen. Man findet zu wenig Gold. Im Internet gibt es Videos bei denen anstelle 10 Goldtaler 30 Goldtaler in der Schatzkiste befinden.
Das ist schade, da jetzt keine weiteren Level gespielt werden können.

### 5/5 — Game stops

*2026-01-14*

Game starts then freezes after a minute. Really upsets me after I pad money for this.

### 5/5 — My favorite Roads to Rome game by far

*2025-04-05*

Works flawlessly on my iPad Air, perfect challenge level for me, not boring, not too difficult. Love this game!

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2024-11-21, version 2.0.7*

Love playing this. I like how you can try and get an expert time

### 5/5 — ♥️

*2022-02-17*

Love it

### 5/5 — More levels

*2019-10-19, version 2.0.7*

Love this game.  One of the best time management/strategy games.  Would love it to have more levels

### 5/5 — Good

*2019-04-13*

Funny game

**Developer response:** Thanks!

### 5/5 — Fun! Hard!

*2018-12-16, version 1.0.5*

I’ve always liked Roads of Rome games; I’ve owned every one of them. This one is far harder to accomplish wins.

### 5/5 — Schönes Update

*2018-12-10*

Das Spiel hat schon damals Spass gemacht. Dies ist ein sinnvolles Update mit schönen neuen Level. Einen sechsten Stern gibt es, weil man einfach die Vollversion kaufen kann und das Spiel nicht auf Freemium setzt. 

Einziges Problem für mich: Man sieht nicht mehr so deutlich, ob man ein Gebäude jetzt schon bauen kann. Das war in der alten Version besser gelöst mit den roten und grünen Buttons.

**Developer response:** Thank you for feedback!

### 5/5 — good

*2018-11-06, version 1.0.5*

like

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2018-09-04, version 1.0.5*

Love the improvements in this one. Will you be making a new one hopefully?
