    55 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Many users express frustration over the inability to progress without spending money, particularly for younger players, and some report technical issues that prevent them from accessing ad rewards.

    • “Only rated two stars for the effort clearly attempted in terms of graphics - otherwise it would just be one star.”

    • “It has potential but it's too simple; I thought there would be multiplayer or daily events that we can do or even just have a story quest... it also lags a lot because of how much space it's taking up on my phone.”
