Don’t recommend ### 1/5 — Nicht spielbar. *2024-01-19* Selbst im Intro alle 15 Sekunden Werbung. Schon nach dem dritten Werbeblock kein Bock mehr. ### 1/5 — Worst game ever downloaded *2024-01-13, version 1.3* Where do I start, I do not know what is worse, the adds every 5 clicks or the payment option just for the person that made the game to make money. All game app makers are greedy grubs they want you to pay in every way possible. 1000% not recommending this to any one. ### 1/5 — Dont waste ur time *2024-01-12, version 1.3* The game is trash ### 1/5 — Why bother *2024-01-07, version 1.3* Haven’t even played it yet and already just by the negative feedback I’ll probably just delete it. That many ads are unnecessary and just a cash grab for developers. Prove me wrong. ### 1/5 — Total garbage game *2024-01-06, version 1.3* Not waste your time. It’s just one ad after another after another. ### 2/5 — Lingua *2024-01-04* Peccato che la lingua Italia non sia compresa nelle impostazioni ### 1/5 — Mouais… *2024-01-04* Bon, trop de pub, temps d’attente trop long qui nous incite à prendre l’abonnement pour s’en débarrasser, dommage ### 1/5 — 30 segundos de juego 2 anuncios *2024-01-04* No llevo ni 30 segundos y ya te meten 2 anuncios, muy aburrido jugar así. ### 1/5 — Game isn't even finished *2024-01-03, version 1.3* Paid the money to get through only to find out that the game isn't even finished. Obviously the developers have given up on it. Definitely a cash grab. Don't waste your time downloading and definitely don't waste your money trying to finish a game that isn't complete. ### 1/5 — Ad filled trash *2024-01-01, version 1.3* Totally unplayable due to the amount of ads. Literally an ad every 10 seconds. Not remotely enjoyable enough to deal with that. I deleted it less than three minutes. ### 2/5 — Was fun at first *2023-12-29, version 1.3* The game has a lot of potential. Even if you pay the $4.99 weekly the game is designed to make you spend money as you progress thru the story. It’s a shame the developers had to be so greedy making this. Don’t waste your time unless you want to needlessly spend money. ### 1/5 — Awful *2023-12-27, version 1.3* Ads every other tap, nonsensical and boring story ### 1/5 — Mehr Werbung als spielen *2023-12-25* Nach jedem 5. Text von Charakteren kommt Werbung. Nicht spielbar ### 1/5 — Horrible *2023-12-22, version 1.3* Not sure how it has so many 5 stars.. played for 35 seconds and had 3 ads and a survey.. instantly deleted! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too many adds *2026-01-23, version 1.5* I hate this game I can not do much because there are so many adds and I think you guys should fix that ### 1/5 — Trash game. *2025-07-28, version 1.5* Same thing every single time unless you spend money. Not worth your time. How this game has 4.3 rating BLOWS MY MIND!!! ### 1/5 — Next level gatekeeping *2024-12-20, version 1.5* I had to pay 5 gems (watched 5 ads to get them) just to pay another 5 gems to use them. Make it make sense. ### 1/5 — Pay to play *2024-07-04, version 1.5* This "game" is garbage. First off, it's less of a game and more of a "choose your own adventure" story. Second, you MUST pay to play. There are literally no options for even getting past one day of playing without needing gems that you're forced to buy, or you can watch ten videos (literally). Completely trash from such a promising-looking game. ### 1/5 — Anuncios *2024-04-13* Ves más anuncios de lo que juegas, a los 5 minutos me matan y te obligan a empezar nueva partida si no quieres gastar diamantes fantástico ### 1/5 — Trash, don’t download this… *2024-04-05, version 1.5* One of the worst apps to download so far… ### 1/5 — More ads than game! *2024-03-16, version 1.4.1* I understand that ads pay for the game and such but I played for 10 min. and 75% of that time was ads. It’s not worth even trying to get into it. If you take to long trying to decide what to do, it goes to an ad immediately after ya answer. Oh and the English is horrible, lol! Honestly, really difficult to enjoy this game. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money *2024-02-27, version 1.4.1* This “game” is pure greed from the developers. They waste absolutely no time in getting you to spend money only moments in to the game. The only way to survive is to spend money. It’s not worth your time, money or effort. Every decision you make results in needing to spend money to continue to the next stage. A total rip off ### 1/5 — Ads ads ads *2024-02-12* Pathetic game basically sn advertisement platform ### 1/5 — Trash *2024-02-03, version 1.4.1* Nothing but a cash grab… ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Money Grab game smh *2023-12-22, version 1.3* All the game doesn’t have you make choices and if you make the wrong ones, you have to spend money that makes the game no longer fun and then you have to start over if you don’t spend money which is terrible there’s too many games on the App Store should be playing this one ### 5/5 — Hot garbage *2023-07-28, version 1.2.9* I gave it 5 star so my rating will hopefully be noticed. But don’t waste your time don’t even bother. Just a greedy money grubbing game. It had so much potential to be a decent game too, it’s a real shame. If you make a wrong choice you either spend gems that cost real money to continue on or start over from the beginning. All of the good actions for preferred outcomes also take gems. Then you get an add after every few choices, then hit a paywall to either subscribe to this poor excuse for a game or watch 5 ads to continue. What a major disappointment. ### 3/5 — Game has glitches. Stuck in vent with the rat! *2024-09-04, version 1.5* Game glitched while in the vent with the rat. It won’t let you click on wait it out. And if you watch the ads and do other options you get caught. So at a stand still. Was good up to this point ### 3/5 — Make a update *2023-08-16, version 1.2.9* Is there any more levels after blackjack just got my money up to 10k Basically I’m asking are you making more storyline or did I waste 30-40 pound whatever it was on a yearly bundle that gives no adds. I only ask because it’s been the same for nearly a week and a half Loving the game if it was more storyline or you guys carried it on will be on 5 star ### 3/5 — Ehh *2023-04-01, version 1.2.6* Honestly a really good game but y’all lost me when you started asking me to pay for diamonds after every small cut scene. If I purchased a subscription It should come with atleast a diamond bonus or a faster timer or option that awards you these diamonds. If every scene that pops up requires 10 diamonds and it’s 5$ for 15 or watch a million videos to earn a free diamond then honestly I’d rather play elsewhere. You made a great game and then ruined it with greed ### 3/5 — Crash *2023-01-11, version 1.0.3* Same as other reviewer. Cool app but once you get in the kitchen it crashes. Lol. What happens next???? Fix it. **Developer response:** Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We apologize for any frustration you may have experienced with the crashing issue in the kitchen level.

Once I reach the part of the Butcher/Chef guy the game keeps crashing and there is nothing I can do to fix it **Developer response:** We want to assure you that this issue has already been resolved and the game should now be functioning properly. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about our game. We apologize for any frustration caused by the crashing issue. ### 2/5 — About the game *2024-09-26, version 1.5* I’m not happy because I payed for things for the app like buy coins and gems and then it says soon you will be able to continue the story further but it needs to update for me to play the game why’s is that and do we know when I can get more stories on the game because it won’t let me finish the game and let him excape ### 2/5 — Issues in warden office vent *2024-04-16, version 1.5* Was playing great until I got to the point where I am in the vent in the warden’s office listening to the conversation and then a rat is in the vent with me and when I select the option to wait it out it does nothing but bring me to the screen to buy more diamonds or to watch ads to get free diamonds please fix the issue so I can keep playing ### 2/5 — Annoying *2024-02-29, version 1.4.1* Too many dam adds!!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
