“This is a fun game, but the reason I gave it only one star is because we can only bake one thing, and that's boring. These Budge apps require payment for literally everything, and there are so many ads, which makes it worse. Either get rid of the ads or make everything free, then I will change my rating.”
“I think it's a good game, but there are too many ads, and even after getting all the prizes, I still cannot unlock anything. It's just stupid, so I uninstalled.”
