  • Engaging and addictive gameplay with good graphics and entertaining features.
  • Offers a realistic simulation of being a hacker and developer with various activities like hacking, publishing apps, and managing a company.
  • Offline play is supported and game progression has a satisfying grind and leveling system.
  • Excessive and forced advertisements severely disrupt gameplay, with ads appearing even after purchasing ad removal.
  • Numerous bugs and glitches including save corruption, progress not being saved, freezing, and issues progressing past certain points.
  • Lack of content and endgame content makes the game boring after maxing out upgrades with no new challenges or features.

  • monetization

    225 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    11% positive mentions, 1% neutral mentions, 88% negative mentions

    The game's monetization heavily relies on intrusive and excessive ads, with many users reporting that purchasing no-ad or VIP packages does not fully remove ads, leading to frustration and feelings of being scammed. While some optional ads offer rewards, forced ads are frequent and disrupt gameplay, making the experience frustrating and often unplayable without paying. Overall, the aggressive ad strategy is widely criticized and severely detracts from the game's potential.

    • “There are little to no ads and no sexually explicit content contained in this application.”
    • “I've had an in-game purchase for the gold computer.”
    • “This is really fun; I hacked the game and now it has no ads.”
    • “If you buy anything too early you basically break the game and it won't let you complete tasks anymore, and if you buy the no ad or the more expensive everything bundle you still have to watch the ads. It baits you to buy it and then they lie and still make you watch every ad there is in the game.”
    • “They sell the "no ad" thing and even after purchasing it, you're still forced to see pop ups or ads when they offer the x2 things after you programmed something. In other games, when you buy the "no ad" every single ad is blocked and even selecting the x2 doesn't force you to watch any ads, so I kinda feel scammed.”
    • “Paid to remove ads in the app, yet there's still tons of ads.”
    • “Will be requesting a refund for still seeing ads after paying to remove them.”
    • “After reading other reviews, it seems to be a common issue that ads are abundant, and then making a purchase doesn't remove all of them.”
    • “I bought the ad-free package and still get constant ads.”
    • “Sad to see such game even after full premium, the ads still manifest the game.”
    • “Great game to be honest I love the game, but I had purchased the VIP package, but I am still having to watch ads for anything additional items.”
    • “If you purchase the no advertising package, advertising remains in the game.”
    • “Once you pay for the no pop up ads and VIP package which claim to "disable advertising" and the game still has ads... I've closed the game and restarted my phone.”
    • “The game looks good so far, but don't pay for no advertisement as you still get ads and it costs $14.99 - waste of money, and they don't respond to emails.”
    • “Just turn on airplane mode and ads are gone.”
    • “You literally have to watch 30 seconds of unskippable ads for every 4 actions you take.”
    • “You cannot play without watching ads every 10 seconds.”
    • “This is a good game but with way too many ads.”
    • “Too many ads. Disabling ads purchase doesn't affect at all.”
    • “Paid for no pop up ads I'm getting pop up ads, oh yes it is.”
    • “Too many ads in every where and everything to do even you purchase full premium.”
    • “The amount of ads is crazy unless you pay to remove them.”
    • “Utterly pointless, do not download as a matter of principle, unless you want to spend 90% of the game watching forced ads.”
    • “It's just a money grab, plays ads every 2 minutes then advertises to get rid of ads, it's ridiculous, do not get this game.”

  • graphics

    28 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    64% positive mentions, 25% neutral mentions, 11% negative mentions

    Users generally praise the game's graphics as good, smooth, and visually appealing, with many finding them entertaining and well-detailed. Some comment on the cartoonish, 2D style and suggest improvements for more realism or variety, while a few note declines in quality or issues with ads affecting gameplay. Overall, the graphics are seen as a strong point but could benefit from enhancements and more content variety.

    • “Very nice and the graphics are very cool.”
    • “Good graphics and detailed devices.”

    The game suffers from frequent freezes, glitches, and bugs, especially during key gameplay moments such as loading ads, progressing to new areas, or saving and restoring progress. Many users report crashes, slow loading, lost progress, and issues with in-game transactions, significantly impacting overall stability and playability.

    • “Disappointed it was glitches and I was at level 20 with everything maxed out and spent money on cash. I saved my progress but it wouldn't let me go to the military base, saying I needed 50,000 even though I had well over that. I reset thinking the app needed reinstalling and it won't load my game. It says try later. I've tried for two days and now I'm out of my progress and the money I spent. It won't even let me restore purchase.”
    • “When I try to open it just glitches out and sends me back to the home screen. Impossible to play.”
    • “The game looks cool but it freezes at the starting screen. My phone is low-end but still I play big size games on it. This game is not working. Please fix it.”

  • gameplay

    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    38% positive mentions, 39% neutral mentions, 23% negative mentions

    Gameplay in this game has potential and can be relaxing, with a well-thought-out progression system, but it is heavily hindered by frequent ads and technical glitches that detract from the experience. Some users find it addictive and informative, while others criticize it as boring, glitchy, and even problematic with performance issues. Overall, gameplay quality is mixed, with enjoyable elements overshadowed by intrusive ads and bugs.

    • “It's not the most realistic but the progression system is well thought and the gameplay is relaxing.”
    • “I will say the actual gameplay is quite good, and has great potential, just the ads are quite annoying.”
    • “Excellent hacker game and amazing gameplay.”
    • “During the first few hours of gameplay it starts out pretty normal but when you finally get your own apartment in the game everything completely glitches out.”
    • “This is a complete trash. Do not play this game. After loading, all of the screen goes black. It also makes my device super laggy even when I am out of the game. This is the worst hacking gameplay I ever played. Warning: I think the game can hack you because it causes lag even when the game is not active.”
    • “The game has more ads than gameplay itself.”

  • story

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is considered bland and lacks engaging content, with players quickly completing all missions and feeling there are insufficient goals or meaningful objectives. Many users express frustration with repetitive tasks and a lack of progression or variety in the storyline.

    • “Honestly, it's a nice game but I finished all the missions in a day. Please add more missions.”
    • “The main storyline is a bit bland though, not a lot of things happening.”
    • “Sooo.... I have more than a million. There's no goals, no way to join the military, and no way to have missions? I liked it at first when I had tasks, now it's just generating money for no reason to be in this game.”
    • “I really want to play this game but after I completed the quest to collect 1000 dollars, the tutorial guy came on to buy a laptop.”
    • “Well, I'm having a problem getting the laptop. It says it costs 1000 and my money says 1000 but it says I don't have enough, and the main quest is forcing me to tap in certain places, meaning I can't get more money.”
    • “The main storyline is a bit bland, though not a lot of things happen.”

  • music

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
