### 1/5 — I live the game, but there is a problem

*2026-08-05, version 1.046*

I enjoy playing this game, but all of a sudden after I canceled a plan and paid it back when I needed to as soon as I had the money, it won’t allow me to play now.
I would love to play this again without it saying restart the app because of failed purchases of the VIP

### 1/5 — Game broke after buying vip

*2026-07-14, version 1.046*

I purchased month VIP and now the game gives me a ‘purchase failed, restarting to complete purchase”. I restart… and the game freezes and jams again. I can’t send a msg to support because the game is broken. But of course they took my money.

### 1/5 — Game pass

*2026-07-13, version 1.046*

Brought a game pass for the last event and the game glitched out which stopped me from continuing to play the game kept flashing purchase failed and to this day still continues to do so the glitching and still paid the money for the pass so not only couldn’t I play the game any more I lost £10 with no contact from the app people after two attempts of contact with them

### 1/5 — Most Recent Broke the Game

*2026-07-03, version 1.046*

Stuck in a restart loop.  App is now garbage.  Do not download.  Do not pay money for any reason.  Absolute garbage.

### 2/5 — Theft/scam

*2026-05-25, version 1.045*

This game is fun, and I genuinely enjoy this game; but for weeks now, I’ll pay for the pass for the 5day event and I don’t get the benefits I paid money for. The timing is also off, that if it takes four 6 hour slots to refill a benefit it will take 24 hours and refill only three instead of four.

### 3/5 — Has issues

*2026-04-11, version 1.043*

When you think about buying emeralds there is no amount listed. Just pics of various sizes and dollar amounts. When you click on it a conformation for purchase window appears. Not going to pay for something that I have no idea the amount I’m buying.

### 1/5 — Abandoned Game

*2025-06-09, version 1.042*

The top of the screen in game is not sized for iPhone and the camera covers important information. Upon connecting with their customer service to report the bug you will receive an email that informs you they are not viewing/addressing tickets/bugs. The issues that are present could’ve been remedied if one person from their development team with an iPhone played and noticed the content that was too high on the screen. I do not recommend buying anything from this game, it would be a waste since they don’t seem to care about its existence anyway. If they do not care to fix very blatant issues in the game, remove it from the App Store.

### 2/5 — Bescheuerte Zählweise

*2024-09-09*

Ansich an total schönes Spiel, optisch wie spielerisch, nur was MEGASCHEIẞE ist: die Zählweise!
Bitte ändert das!!! Anstatt wie bei jedem normalen Spiel in 1k->1M->1B… zu zählen, verschieben die hier das Komma von 1k, dann irgendwie 1,.5K, dann 1.,5K, niemand checkt wieviel was wert ist, das zerstört leider das ganze Spiel. Ansonsten wär’s schön

### 2/5 — Events are a joke!

*2024-08-29, version 1.042*

Who ever made up the events in this game made it so that you either have to spend money to complete all the quests or just skip them altogether! Because the they will wait until you have all most all the quests finished before they give you a quest that you have to collect 45 or more cards to complete. And you will only have 2 or 3 quests left to finish when you get the quest. And each quest that you complete will only give you 2 or 3 cards each if you are lucky. And the bonus chest only comes every 4 hours. And then you might get 8-10 cards but that still will take you around 16 to 20 plus hours to complete! So that is just a joke! And then they don’t give you the cards fast enough to upgrade the players every time you have to move to a different town! Because every new town means everyone must be upgraded a level. But if not the next town you have to make up the difference! You might have to go from level 1 to level 3 in just one town upgrade and you might have just earned the character.

### 1/5 — This game

*2023-08-07, version 1.35*

Don’t know why but this game keeps freezing on me. I love playing this game, but do get annoyed with it
