### 2/5 — So frustrating!

*2026-06-18, version 1.53.7*

Would have given this app a 5 star rating until I added my third ship. Now two of my ships are loaded and ready to sail but are frozen in the harbor. Hate when this happens in an app after you’ve achieved a certain level. Hope the next update fixes this bug.
6/18/2026 This game. Have played it and loved it but it is very buggy. It’s only getting halfway loaded now and then quits. Have tried different things to try to work around but no such luck. Hate to give up all the progress but that may be my only option now.

### 3/5 — Bug issue

*2026-06-08, version 1.53.7*

I love this game so much but I’m incredibly annoyed - I’m spending money to play and the app crashes as soon as I open it. Please drop an update.

### 5/5 — Cute game

*2026-06-07, version 1.53.7*

Kids love it

### 3/5 — So frustrating!

*2026-06-02, version 1.53.7*

Would have given this app a 5 star rating until I added my third ship. Now two of my ships are loaded and ready to sail but are frozen in the harbor. Hate when this happens in an app after you’ve achieved a certain level. Hope the next update fixes this bug.

### 5/5 — Epic American Game

*2026-05-01, version 1.53.7*

I’ve loved many versions of this game, the original version taught school age kids history in a way they can understand. It taught bartering and actually what the pioneers had for meals, what skills were needed & everyday hardships!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-04-02, version 1.53.7*

Love this game, and even if you have the free version with ads, it’s not so bad because you get coins after the ads.

### 1/5 — Not really OG Oregon trail

*2026-03-27, version 1.53.7*

All I’m doing so far is tapping where they tell me to tap. This is lame.

### 1/5 — Ad city

*2026-03-19, version 1.52.11*

The first time the game said ad break to me I deleted. It’s also a clone of sim city.

### 1/5 — Scammers

*2026-03-17, version 1.52.11*

I purchased two packages, the settlers pack first, and then it said it would give me bonus dollars so I purchased the trolley pack second.  The first one was $7.99. The second one was $79.99.  I did not receive any of the items that were a part of those packages nor did I get the bonus.   I submitted a complaint to customer service and they responded asking for confirmation receipt, which I provided, and tilting point still did not refund my money or provide me the reward as I had purchased.   Do not trust this game, and do not let them steal your money.  I will be looking into getting a lawyer and pressing charges if need be for the theft.

### 3/5 — Used to love it

*2026-02-13, version 1.52.11*

I used to love this game. I've played it daily for years. I've accumulated special buildings, upgraded my barn many, many times. Joined a clan and was doing well. When I opened the game today, it was completely reset. I've lost everything I had worked for. I'm so disappointed. The only good thing is that I didn't spend any actual money playing the game. I guess I will be uninstalling it after this disappointment.
