LOL! ### 1/5 — Event Progress Keeps Resetting *2024-12-26* I have played for a couple of days and keep losing progress on the limited time event. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Shameless clone *2025-02-18* Either play the original on steam (the) Gnorp Apologue, or wait for it to come to iOS. This shameless clone is trash micro-transaction mess. ### 1/5 — This app doesn’t respect your time *2025-01-22* It expects the full purchase price of much better indie games to skip the multiple hours of forced wait time on each level. ### 1/5 — Far too obtrusive in getting you to pay *2025-01-20* Do you like constant pop ups asking you to buy things? Do you like icons on your screen flashing to buy things? Do you like balloons flying across your screen asking you to watch adverts? Absolute bombardment with little thought to any actual game. The prices of things are utterly ridiculous as well. One of THE worst app monetisations I’ve ever seen. ### 1/5 — gnorp apologue: temu version *2025-01-16* yeah this isn’t “inspired” by the gnorp apologue this is literally just a blatant copy paste of the actual game, the only thing that’s different is renaming the structures and minimal changes to the sprites. just buy the actual game. ### 1/5 — Play the real gnorp instead *2025-01-05* Someone took one of the best incremental games ever made, (the) Gnorp Apologue, shamelessly cloned it, and then injected every form of mobile-game-itis imaginable. Only bad differences. ### 1/5 — $20 for no ads is insane. *2024-12-30* This game is way over priced to do anything. Already got three pop ups for crazy expensive stuff after you want is to pay $20 for no ads? Get pucked. This game is boring and too expensive. Why don’t you clown devs actually make a good game. Instead you make trash cash grabs and then move on to the next game. What a waste a space. ### 1/5 — Adds *2024-12-29* I feel this game has the potential to be amazing. However after just closing level one I must have seen six adds and multiple pop ups saying to view more to make it ‘faster’ and adds for their in game shop. Unplayable and a potentially great game ruined by greed :( ### 1/5 — Ads *2024-12-29* When u open the game there are ads to buy stuff from the store. It’s not even fun to click and play, boring interaction between characters. Out rageous prices in game and in the store. ### 1/5 — Tired of seeing these *2024-12-28* Another clicker idle clone that forces you to watch ads to progress, and has a regressive rebirth system that causes a reset without a rebirth currency to boost numbers, may as well just reset data and get the same experience every time a new “level” is reached. It feels even worse when you can see how many levels you have before the game basically ends… I’m sad to see so many of these low effort clicker games that are designed to hit the dopamine button constantly to farm impatient people. ### 1/5 — Would be great *2024-12-27* This homage to gnorps on steam would be great if it wasn’t £20 to remove adds. I mean that’s more than what the game costs on steam and unless you are patient you gonna want to buy it as it takes 30 minutes each time you clear the rock debris to progress. There are adds for everything. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Enjoyable *2024-12-28* Yee ### 4/5 — Good game *2024-12-27* Games is good I like the verity of ways to play such as the different combos you can use. But the rock doesn’t progress when the app is shut even half or less progress while the app is shut would be great ### 3/5 — Need *2024-12-30* Needs a city builder to add buffs to the game ### 3/5 — Fun but aggressive Inapps *2024-12-28* Loved the original Gnorp game. Was happy to play this and I like the idea of unlocking rare guys. But man these Iapps are aggressive. Like $25 for some characters. $20 for ad free. Crazy prices ahaha. Fun game, just hate forced ads. Like waiting 30 minutes to clear the rock or watch an ad. So forced. I like it when you can watch an ad to double income or get bonuses, not forced timed progression bypassed by an ad, making it almost mandatory to either watch an ad or pay $20 ### 3/5 — Bugs *2024-12-25* Whatever the area is that has to be tapped for the piles to be collected, it’s way too small, when early level I can’t even collect a few without tapping a hundred times. ### 2/5 — Could have been good *2025-01-17* Way to ad dependent. If you don’t sink money into this your progression take forever. Could have been a neat game. ### 2/5 — Definitely Too Predatory *2024-12-27* There’s a reason why gnorp analogue is beloved, it’s because they created a fun incremental game. You tried to run with similar concepts but made every single decision point and interaction come with an IAP to do x thing faster or more efficient. Don’t bother. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
