Disappointed

The title of this review is going to be a bit misleading, as I love the game. I first found it during a free trial of Apple Arcade. I saw there was a paid version of the game and assumed that it would mean more levels, especially with a $10 price tag. However, this is the same game that Apple Arcade has. So, my advice, pay for Apple Arcade and get access to more games. You’ll be more ahead.

It’s ok

It’s really hard to tell what a lot of the items are so you don’t know where to place them. Kind of annoying to go back and forth with one item to each room. Definitely not worth the price.

This is game was not optimized for mobile

The controls are terrible; you click on one thing and end up triggering something else. I didn't like it.

I think there should be more levels

I think more levels will be amazing, it’s a great game but finished it a few times. Just like 3-6 new levels would be nice, wann know what else happens, noticed our girl in a photo with another girl 😘 think that’s cute, who she falls in love next LOVE THE GAME, RECOMMEND HIGHLY, AND Could u pls pls pls add a update where u can also organize the girls kid like ours growing up will be fun I HOPE U SEE THIS Like the kid in the last level I would love to see more. Who she becomes, if she is in lgbtq etc, I HIGHLY recommend the game, just want some more stages. WORTH $10 but to people that give it under 4 stars it’s 15 for u XD ANYWAY I’d love to see more,!
