### 3/5 — This is a 5/5 game but your progress will be erased

*2024-10-29, version 1.5*

All was chill till it kept erasing all my progress anytime I restarted the game. Sorry but this is a very honest review. Fix it … this is a very sad reason for this game to fail. It’s perfect otherwise.

### 2/5 — Frustrating save issues

*2023-11-28, version 1.5*

I’ve tried restarting my device multiple times, and when that didn’t work I even reinstalled. I just can’t get UP2 to actually SAVE my completed mission stars. I get to restart every time I open the game again.

That said, the game is fine. I just wish I didn’t have to restart it constantly.

### 5/5 — Love this game

*2020-08-17*

Can be difficult but gets you thinking and very fun to play

### 5/5 — I’m hungry so after I finish writing this imma make some food.

*2020-02-18, version 1.4*

There’s no adds which I appreciate so much. It seems like every single game has adds now or they want you to pay for the add free version and I’ve stopped playing them because of that. It’s a very difficult game but a lot of fun. I’ll end up playing it for hours without realizing it. Highly recommend downloading it.

### 5/5 — Love love love

*2019-02-05, version 1.3.31*

I love this game sooooo much. I’m always playing it.

### 1/5 — Ummmm

*2018-12-22, version 1.3.31*

I like the game but every time I open the game and play it for a couple minutes it completely freezes and I can’t click anything

### 1/5 — Eh

*2018-10-08, version 1.3.31*

I love games like these but I can’t even play it due to extreme lagging.

### 3/5 — Fun but buggy

*2018-10-02, version 1.3.31*

As of writing this the game is fun but crashes quite a lot

### 2/5 — Africa second largest country?

*2018-09-15, version 1.3.31*

Its a continent!

### 5/5 — Great free game

*2017-12-17, version 1.3.31*

No complaints at the price!
