  • monetization
    77 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy in the game is a mixed bag, with many players appreciating the optional nature of ads that offer rewards, making them feel less intrusive compared to other titles. However, numerous reviews highlight that the game often requires watching ads to progress, leading to frustration as players find themselves spending more time watching ads than actually playing. Additionally, technical issues with ads freezing or not loading properly have detracted from the overall experience, prompting some users to express a desire for a paid option to remove ads entirely.

    • “I don't usually buy things in games, but I did with the no ads option, and it rolled over to my new phone.”
    • “It's like Idle Miner Tycoon with the monetization of Adventure Communist/Capitalist... ingenious, really.”
    • “I wish there was an option to buy no ads.”
    • “Even if you watch all the ads, you will still hit wall after wall because the rewards become extremely limited and with horrible RNG, preventing progress.”
    • “Couple that with the fact that to upgrade the cards, you need another currency that is slow to accumulate (I watched bonus ads every chance I got!) and it just made artificial walls that encourage spending money and detract from the game.”
    • “The game is good but you literally have to watch ads to move to new level stages, with no pay option to skip.”
  • story
    36 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is generally appreciated for being engaging and cute, providing a unique element compared to typical idle games. However, players express frustration over mission mechanics that hinder progress and the recent removal of the storyline, which has led to feelings of repetitiveness and dissatisfaction. Overall, while the story adds charm, its inconsistency and the reliance on ads and mission constraints detract from the overall experience.

    • “It has an actual story unlike most idle games.”
    • “The story thus far is quite amusing, and plenty enough to keep me coming back for more.”
    • “It's a cute game with a fun storyline and you can play it at your pace.”
    • “The storyline ended awhile ago and now the game just feels repetitive.”
    • “I came back to it to finish the story and the storyline is gone.”
    • “Taking away a star due to the story mode being removed.”
  • graphics
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the graphics of the game receive a mixed but generally positive reception. Many players appreciate the art style and find the graphics to be excellent or amazing, contributing to the game's fun and engaging atmosphere. However, some users express a desire for improvements, indicating that while the graphics are enjoyable, there is room for enhancement.

    • “I like the art style; the way the game restarts the boats at every new port goes along with the story, so that's pretty cool.”
    • “Gameplay is fantastic, graphics are excellent, story is funny, and ads are so limited that I'm honestly surprised how they manage to keep the game free!”
