But it’s to upgrade your vehicle. I mean who would want to pay that much money for a game when it’s a game where people just want to play games freely without having to pay like £4.99 or even £5.99 which I think is ridiculous. I think that you shouldn’t have to pay to carry on playing the game. Like I had to stop because I wasn’t going to pay that much for a silly little game. All you do in it is go around in different trucks/cars and go to different places around the world. However the rest of the first bit was good until it came to a end to the buying end. Which I personally wouldn’t pay for. ### 2/5 — Money *2024-07-26* App crashes way to much and you need to pay to do stuff ### 4/5 — Good but.. *2024-07-08* Its overall I good game, there’s not too many ads BUT you do have to pay 10$ to get the rest of the game ### 3/5 — I LOVEEE this game but… *2024-04-25* When I was little I used to play this EVERYDAY but I was only able to play the same 4 rounds every time I played , I wish that you can upgrade your truck with the stars you earn I recently downloaded the game again and it still told me to upgrade, I also wish we could just skip the upgrade and see what would happen… I love playing this game but I hate how I have to repeat the same rounds over and over , It’ll be better if we can upgrade our truck with the amount of stars we earn !! Don’t get me wrong this game is probably one of my favorite games of all time, Although obviously love Strawberry Shortcake. ### 3/5 — I love it but…. *2024-04-11* It’s really good but I don’t want to have to pay just to get the truck and move on so it is good but I don’t get why we should have to pay just to get a truck it just does not make sense if you want to skip a level because it is to hard I see that or by more flavors or toppings I see that like getting them before your supposed to I see that but making players have to buy the truck just to move on does not make sense cause we can’t move on which to my understanding would lead to deleting of the game so if you could knot make us have to pay for the trucks and have be able to buy like toppings and ice cream flavors early so if you could do that it would be amazing cause honestly no one really wants to pay for a simple thing to move on ### 4/5 — Pretty good game *2024-03-31* My only problem is that multiple customers come at the same time which makes it really hard to serve them without them running away because I got angry at me ### 4/5 — Missing levels? *2024-02-03* It’s a great game and I overall have no complaints, I bought access to unlock the full gave and I’ve loved it! But at one point I loaded up the game (I hadn’t beaten it yet) and it won’t show me the amount of stars I’ve gotten on levels. When I load into a truck, it displays that all of the levels I have previously beaten, are locked? And I can’t go back to the first level because I’m on a locked level now. I would undownload the game to fix this, but then I would lose my progress and my purchase. ### 2/5 — Please explain *2024-01-30* Hi I paid for my granddaughter a bundle which was on special which included everything she been playing this game since she was 5 she’s very upset because you have taken it all back please explain very unhappy girl she’s 10 now Kind regards Disappointed ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The levels turned gray and I can’t play *2024-12-02* I bought the six pack for $10 this weekend and now when I go into the game all the little circles for the levels have turned gray. I can only play the same level for each character over and over. I’m at the part that the windmill is built at Cool Breeze Coastline and the scene of the windmill being built has played as soon as I open the app 5 of the 10 times I’ve opened the app to try to get it to work again. ### 1/5 — Have To Pay *2024-11-20* You HAVE TO PAY to play the actual game which I’m NOT allowed to. If you can’t pay for games then I don’t recommend. ### 1/5 — PARENTS DO NOT DOWNLOAD!! *2024-10-20* What a complete rip off downloaded this game for my daughter all was going well until she completed the fourth level and bam! Have to pay to get past the level what a rip off! Money hungry company everything from budge used to be good when it was FREE! Got caught up in the power of money definitely will not be downloading anything from budge again unless they change there ways. This is a game aimed for kids you shouldn’t have to pay to win/play! Don’t waste your time! ### 1/5 — Too exspensive *2024-10-04* To be able to enjoy the whole game, you have to use real money to be able to explore the whole map by causing players to pay for each new area. Not cool! There should be a reward system on the game to allow players to be able to build up enough points to open a new area. Soo sad!!! I love Strawberry Shortcake, so to see fun games that include ice cream, is absolutely perfect. Too bad the game ruined it for kids so they can not enjoy the whole game. All parents will not give their children money to play a game. If you want this game and the rest of your games to be a success, you should change how players can enjoy the whole game instead of deleting it due to being money hungry for a very simple game. Sighs ### 1/5 — Do not download *2024-08-01* Money to play the rest of the game at level 12 ### 1/5 — Scammed me *2024-07-03* I bought the everything pass a while back but it won't let me restore anything. Don't recommend cause you can't play much without paying. It's a full pay to win game, don't play. ### 1/5 — Money *2024-04-06* I was super excited to get this game because I quite like games like these. but after five minutes, I land on the update-your-truck place and have to pay $10. I was really disappointed. Please make it free🙏🥺. ### 1/5 — Just why😡😡 *2024-04-02* You can only go so far without having to pay to see the next level I just want to keep playing the game, but instead I have to pay for more levels😡😡😡😤😤😤 ### 1/5 — UGH!! *2024-03-14* This was a really fun game, and I even played this when I was 4-6 years old! But, WE HAVE TO PAY TO GO TO THE OTHER LEVELS!!!👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻😡😩 ### 1/5 — 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 *2024-02-26* I am going to give you one star because I can go to the next level because I have to buy the big car it’s not fair that’s why I’m giving you one star cause you’re charging me and other people that don’t like it and it’s not right because your games used to be free and now they’re not and I know what you’re gonna say kid this business and I know it’s business but it’s not right I know things are free but your games used to be free so whoever made them free I want them back. I know some people are upset about this like me because I am upset about this you’re charging me for no reason you just want money, so are you gonna change it? I’m asking. I’m really asking it never change it needs to. And I know that you just think I’m a little silly kid, but I’m not silly because you need to change it. it’s all I’m gonna say one star ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Seriously, we gotta pay? *2024-12-10* Anyways I downloaded this app and I thought it would be fun but TURNS OUT, YOU HAVE TO PAY TO CONTINUE. Also, you get ONE map, that strawberry shortcake stupid little girl (sorry strawberry shortcake) and THATS ALL! Plus only two flavors,and only 3 levels till you have to pay. So I deleted it, thanks budge studios, for charging us for things that are NEEDED for the freaking game! I will download your stuff when you make some stuff available and free, until then nope, there goes your favorite user. And good luck with your business, I’m surprised you 4 stars for this app. Goodbye. ### 5/5 — 🥰🩷 *2024-11-21* Je l’aime 😍 trop ✌️ ### 5/5 — I can’t play it *2024-07-28* I get to the start and it won’t let me go farther because you have to pay😭😭😭 ### 5/5 — Great game *2024-07-20* I like the game ### 5/5 — Horrible *2024-07-12* I only allowed to have one person during the start of the game, you only get to do like 3 levels and then you have to upgrade your car which you have to pay for and you can't go to her friends because you always gotta pay for them. Not a single kid is going to like this game, because you only can play 3 levels, and that's it, you're done, it's boring, and I honestly think that you should do better. ### 5/5 — Best game evvvvvvveeeeerrrrrr *2024-06-28* Creativity boosts are something i never get this game made me find my true passion. ### 5/5 — Can you unlock The caraths *2024-06-09* Can you unlock everything please. ### 5/5 — Best game EVER! *2024-05-25* I think this is the best game ever because you can make any sort of ice cream you want in your laboratory because you can get a laboratory. But for customers you have to make their order. and you can even get stars and you can upgrade your ice cream truck and you can go to different places but you have to pay for it, but if you do pay for it, it would be pretty good.😊 ### 5/5 — I love it! *2024-03-16* I love ice cream and play all the time. It could be a little cheaper but I have only had it a week and have finished! What’s next?! ### 5/5 — The Ice cream *2024-02-03* It’s so much fun! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
