Update - the devs and customer service are scammers. I have communicated my points directly with their in-game customer service. Customer service either parrots what their management tells them to or is a poor excuse for customer service. When I brought up a vip-level customer service they told me if I wanted that level of customer service I need to download and use other, unrelated apps.
I stand by my original review and wish Apple would take them off AgeofApes Store and totally reimburse every player who has made any purchase in this game. Nobody should play this game, not even on a free-to-play manner.
Original review: Do not play tap4fun games. The devs exploit players wanting to have fun, making it impossible to be competitive unless you pay a ton of money or play for several years. Recently, a bug was exploited that a few players discovered and took advantage of, making them significantly stronger than everybody else. Rather than giving back the game resources, troops, and other items used to recover from this, the developers sent some players a meaningless reward that only helped recover very little assets. The developers punish players when the developers create ingame mistakes, but also punish players when they allow other players to exploit their (developers) mistakes. No recourse or punishment was made against the players that cheated, they were allowed to receive rewards and continue to play as if nothing had happened.

This game legitimately had a Facebook ad that compared in-game cinematics to in-game graphics and then claimed the cinematics weren’t identical to the game graphics, but it was close and it is a fun game. That’s paraphrasing but the point is… they made an ad about cinematics compared to gameplay and then the actual game the game has doesn’t even use the gameplay that they used in the ad? What a JOKE. You can’t showcase cinematics vs gameplay and then use gameplay that isn’t from your game! The game is fun so I’ll give it a Star, but take your 1 Star review for false advertising your own ad that is supposed to show it isn’t false advertising? Reporting these games to Apple is easy. Keep these companies in line or else the future of entertainment is always going to be bait and switch. I’m sick of it.
Edit to dev response: No. you portrayed this game as one thing and then flipped it while actually playing. That’s called bait and switch and is illegal in many markets, and is against Apple TOS and they have a report description for that under scam/fraud. Why even come onto reviews and lie MORE. 1* for you. Get out of here with your crap.

I agree! Sea game could of been an awesome game to play for a very long time! But! They allowed I think the Asian community to just be stupid and destroy servers! SMH! I feel bad for the good honest players being crapped on but I do have a little bit of a smile because I warned with my last post on the server I was on to the Asian players they were going to destroy the server and before you know it..server be dead and or shut down and by the way I have no problems with Asians.. I love Chinese women LOL and the other games I’m playing? The Asian community is fine.. I’m not sure what was up with that game & the Asian players?! ! But these devs? I don’t trust them as far as I can throw them! I played the other war game the one with the female leaders… that game I will admit it stayed pretty even it wasn’t too bad but it got very boring.. if you’re looking for a game that’s relatively new…look into warpath, it is from the developers who make rise of kingdoms… awesome game!

Something is wronge with the way this game bills and gives you packages I was trying to purchase them I thought it was me they weren’t applying so I’d try again or another well it billed me for all the things while I was trying to get it to work I didn’t get it costing me the games battle. I did call apple customer service they did issue me a refund as I told them the billing issues interfere with the game particularly whe you need a timoly response to beat a distributor then all the sudden I go back in the game a ton of packages I did t buy pop up as if I bought them saying they have arrived. What the heck. Anyway the packages amount to allot of money they ai only wanted one on. Apple was able to give money back on some not the apply game weekly 4.99 package but did cancel this.

This game used to be fun, then all the money that has to be paid to even stay somewhat remotely relevant. Playing it for free will only last so long, and nevermind the huge amounts of glitches and bugs in the game, which you finally trick the system into letting you report it only the have the support team brush you off and say oh it is being fixed or whatever. I lost money and rolls and everything on this game and have spent hundreds of dollars but I don’t matter to them, only their big spenders do. And I do mean big spenders. Then those guys go around bullying and beating up on the smaller guys simply because they can because no one else will spend that kind of money. Honestly best to just stay away from this game unless you just want to blow tons of money and to find out it still isn’t enough.

I play this game through an advertisement which was a totally different game than the original. I’ve read the responses the developer has made on why that is, and I noticed that this developer is lying to you harshly. Now i didn’t pay any money on this game, (because who really pays for these things anyways), so Im not to concerned with how many things you have to buy, (I also don’t game much). Yet my problem here is the false advertisement and then the developer lying to us to keep us playing this game, (because hopefully, eventually, possibly, much likely, in maybe 10 years are So, the game will be like it was advertised). I think we need to hold businesses more accountable a lot more because these companies are more disconnected with the people who buy and/or use their products.

Like all there games, there not player balanced. The very high level preys on lower, There are no way to win in any planning. High level players dominate every event, prey on lower, so there no way one can advance without paying hundreds of dollars in shields and quickly advance.. There no way to plan. These games are not about skill and planning, more a arms race who has bought something other player does not have. If everything was even, and everything available to all, then it would be about skill and planning. If your the type will pay to win this company will treat you will, but price high and you better continue to pay or you end like the rest of us never getting anything for endless hours of playing a very badly designed game, made to make money for those that more likely never play games to know how badly these game are. There are solutions like giving unlimited shields for levels in the early stages, once you get high enough to defend yours through planing and skills, the unlimited free shields are removed. You Tool given to low level players to even out the high level. In oder to be a planning and skills game you have to be balanced and even for all, but it’s not. Unless you like giving your money away, this is not a game for a true gamer….

So what happened is I purchased a package and it was overcharged with more than $15 dollars so I got it refunded. This was not the first time maybe the fourth time they overcharged me but the first three times was only a difference of couple dollars so I thought this could be a donation towards them because I really really enjoy the game and not every spends are overcharged. But once I reached the customer service from in game they were only giving automated messages and eventually telling me that it was my fault for getting it refunded and the nu ape capsules are now taken away even though I was only refunded for the amount that was overcharged. They will likely to scam you and the developers are not there to help you but to mock you tell you it is your fault. You can enjoy the game without spending a dime but you would not get any rewards for getting stronger so you are getting weaker and weaker as other people get so much stronger than you when the game is solely focused on PvP. So if you are going to pay somewhat to the game get ready to get scammed and not be treated properly for spending money. I have heard and read multiple incidents about this same topic so giving everyone a heads up before downloading the game. I DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY AND DEVELOPERS!

Let’s start with the basic form… there is no simple way to submit a report. You have to trick it into finally providing “submit a report”. Someone thought it would be great to only be able to provide screen shots when you are asking the bots random questions but not when you are submitting a form?!?? The forms are horizontal so if you play on cellphone which fun facts it’s a mobile game you CANNOT see what you are writing to correct edit… you have to wait for customer service to ask you maybe for screen shot or not.
We are constantly spammed by mail from someone giving themselves the name leader who is not a leader of any alliance to leave the game and go to discord. I have reported this several times but customer service cannot figure this out or cancels requests… for bizarre reasons… I’m guessing they have no interest in improving the fundamentals of customer service so they never have to fix anything and they close out tickets for screenshots I tried to submit but can’t.

This game was a lot of fun, however they monetize the crap out of it by constantly throwing repeated ads to buy their stuff at you while you’re playing. Once a session would be fine, but they constantly barrage you with it over and over.
Then theres the lack of players. They lock the servers to new players after a certain time frame, then no new people can join, to fix this issue, after months and months of hard-work and gameplay, they will reset you, your clan and almost everything you’ve worked towards, then combine you with other servers (where the players are stupidly higher power) and compensate you with a few cd’s and some building speedups while you’re in the midst of basically starting over.
If you play, don’t pay as everything you pay for and work for will just be essentially restarted with the exception of your level and your items.
I for one will not be downloading or playing this game again.

This game is Pay To Win. I’ve seen players spend upwards of $10 USD per day to become huge. Then they bully you for no reason.
They claim that they are “farming” you for resources, but when they are level 30, the resources you have below level 20 are pocket change to them.
It’s a very sad community of broken people.
Many of the players in this game are abusive and racist in the chat. There are a lot of players in Asia, and the Middle East that say abhorrent things and then claim “I’m not American, so I can say those things because I don’t know any better.”
The worst players on the server I played on were straight up egomaniacal narcissists. They’d get in the live feed and just spew outright garbage to make themselves sound like important people in the game. The MEOW gang leader was a complete tool. Lying, being deceitful, social engineering, and distrust are the only ways to get ahead in this game outside of spending tons of money on in app purchases.
Like many of the other reviews, I was sold on the puzzle aspects, which after level 10 just disappear. The variety of the games dwindles as you get bigger and soon you are continually pushed to buy upgrade packs to stay competitive.
What other reviewers say is 100% true. One or two gangs get huge by spending, then form a clan. Finally you are constantly bullied and attacked by them making the whole game play experience nothing more than a daily annoyance.

This company is a total scam! Myself and about 100 other people bought coins off there direct website and because they had a clitch we did not know about we got a discount on the coins. Just thinking it was a sale we went through with it. Well they took the in game currency away then held our account hostage asking for more money. $350 to be exact. Complete illegal scam. Of course Apple sides with them like they always do so you wont get your money back. Leaving this game and Apple all together. If it happens to you go to your bank and get it all back. Complete and utter scam!
Edit: to developers response please do not lie it was through your own website you had a Clitch where everyone got a good deal. We as loyal gamers thought we were just getting a good deal. Then you say we took advantage and take the money we spent back and demand we pay more. Again all do not fall for there lies and scams.

Ridiculous
Items are being deducted from my account by the developers of this game for a little over 3months because of something they claimed I did but can’t prove but I show proof that I didn’t and still doesn’t matter. When the deduction first started they gave me the quantity for what they Claim I owed but since then that amount has been taken from my account x3 and they are still taking and now when I ask why they are still taking and the quantity they’re Claiming I still Supposedly owe now it’s they don’t know but says “it is normal and in the future I shouldn’t get refunds”🤔crazy thing about that is the refund was for an item I purchased but Never received🤔. So basically sounded like a threat right? If you get a refund we’ll bully your account and there’s nothing you can do about it! Sad part about that is you can’t even get help from Apple because they claim it’s nothing they can do with it being a 3rd party and the developers of the game knows this so they don’t care…Scam Beware!!!!!

Update: I've got response that I should reach out to customer support and they will help me to find my old account. I did that. They said that they can't do anything since my old account wasn't linked to Apple ID or Facebook. And I also don't remember user ID (it was default random string) and server ID (there was more than 1??). I’m curious how often other users remember their ID and server ID. I guess, it would be one more abandoned account. Now it helps to resolve the mystery of why everyone in my “band” became inactive - they also lost their access.
I used to like this game. But once I moved to a newer version of iPhone - I’ve lost the whole progress. A bunch of other apps stored their state even if I didn’t login there. But here I lost everything. I won’t start from scratch. It’s not worth it.

I came across this game where they advertised it on tiktok. It looked like a game where there a a bunch of players and you have a battle of who can be the biggest monster or monkey in like a big city. That does not happen at all. It’s basically clash of clans but worse not good quality and when you do have one of those “battles” and try to get bigger then other people it’s completely ridiculous! U get boxing gloves and walk around slowly for 40 seconds. That’s it and u upgrade your town and it’s boring and just exactly the same as other games that are like clash of clans. In the game you have to clear out barbarians or mutants to save people u enter the fight and it literally is like a boxing game for 3 year olds where u have very tiny monkeys walking around in cirlces with boxing gloves. The graphics are horrible you play on a platform that’s it. Does not have a theme in the fights it’s all some stupid corny game for little children . I would not recommend this game at all until they stop false advertising and actually give you the game they advertise! Not some crappy knock off of every single game that makes you build a town.

It’s sad to say but Tap4fun is the one will destroy your enjoyment of a game . They will make each P2W or top player of each servers feel they can be very strong and powerful in their own world untill you spend like 25-35k$ to max vip and then they will merging u all to oldest servers to make sure u got beaten by bigger TOP who spend more than u a year played…. It’s because they want to make sure U ALL Spend more and more to catch up or get Zeroed by others , and trust me u can’t even earn Anything from Events no matter how strong and how much moneys to spend before that because they will also make sure u will always losing by others Who can spend $$$$ in a day! That’s all Bull*** that hundreds players from our group servers feeling now about this game . And don’t trust their 5* ratting cuz most of it is FAKE

Great game but t4f support stinks. I opened a ticket 2 updates ago. Ticket was closed and I'm still getting notifications from support. This is getting rediculous getting constant notifications for something that only happened once. UPDATE;
Updated game twice in one day. New building added does not work. Reported it to support. Got 3 responses. 1)Standard response acknowledging ticket was received. 2)Support updating me that they will have me a response in 24 hours. 3)Support contacting me to rate their service ticket was closed. ALL within 12 hours of reporting issue. Guess what. Still have the problem and ticket was closed. If I have to delete game again I will seek a refund on my subscriptions and never play t4f games again. Stars went from 2 to 1 because I have to give them one. Developers contact me NOW

First off this is not a .io style game as advertised, there is no online element apparent, despite the small bits of real “gameplay” trying to deceive you into believing. There no real gameplay to be talked about, it plays as a big tutorial where in it tells you where you click, what to press, and your “reward” for doing so.
The gameplay loop is click on an objective, wait a few seconds for it to be completed, then tap a challenge objective and play the advertised collect/fight over bananas against bots. No challenge, no online, and no time worth wasting here.
However the silver lining is: the idea of a game about chimps fighting over bananas in the .io style is hilarious. I so desperately would like to return to monke, but no return is to be had here

I have spent a lot on this game, like most other long term players. I recently started getting kicked off by the server during any battle, or mini-game I am playing. If I am in the mine the game freezes. It will also just freeze up randomly. I have made complaints to the developers, with the reply that my devices and service are the problem. I play on a Mac, and IPhone XIII. I am either connected to WIFI w/highspeed internet, or on a 5G network. No matter, these issue’s continue to persist. Today I can’t even log in to my account. It kicks me off right after the load screen. Tons of continuous problems. If you are considering this game as a “new adventure”, consider continuing your search. I wouldn’t invest in this game with all its flaws, and lack of support. The developers need to do a much better job at helping the people that fund their jobs. I am one more kick, or freeze from boycotting this game.

Ive played for almost a year now. I got sucked into leading and its the only reason I stuck around. There are FAR better options out there within this genre. Rise of Kingdoms for example puts this game to shame.
The first thing I would say is DO NOT spend money. There are far too many game altering bugs that will take any money spent a complete waste. Fighters not gaining rage while defending passes lead to huge troop losses. A bug making it so I cant city hop and reinforce teammates lead to our clan leader getting zeroed.
I mean you might as well take your cash and just set it on fire. Besides anything you buy will be nerfed a month later anyways. Cant wait to escape this game but im a loyal guy so sticking out and keeping these videos and screenshots for a good laugh later on.
by JPCITS
VERY MISLEADING ADS. NEVER HAD A SCREEN LIKE THE ADS. When i started playing this, it was a blast. But this game is more about Pay2Win. If you are not willing to spend at least $50-60 a month, you will not enjoy it for very long. Research takes months after a while, training troops takes over 24 hours. These times are to get you to pay a lot. I know someone that built quick but spent almost $30,000 in 6 months. If you play this be prepared for the pop-up’s asking you to buy regularly
***Update***
Devs, there is not one scene in the game where we actually trade punches with another player. So please do not lie about thinking the players will think it is similar to the ads. Those ads are completely false advertising. The arena seems to be similar to operation mutants but we don’t chase down bananas either to grow.
by Pain216
In my opinion this game is fun but has some flaws. This is definitely a pay to win game for sure and also if you are attacked over and over by anyone higher get ready to lose 3/4 of your troops (they die) and it literally takes forever to build them back. So something you spent a long time trying to build aka troops can never be brought back as easily. If these are not for you I would suggest avoiding this game. I liked the game until the biggest player on the server I am on, attacked me, killing off 3/4 of my troops. I spent a long time trying to build those and even though I knew coming into it that this game was pay to win, you will find that it is very difficult to recover after that. You can blow lots of money on this game too just a heads up.
by Lilkryptonite
You should be able to switch servers with your main character, adding another server is pretty cool, but the downfall on that is you have to start all over again when your in a different server. It’s a good money making scheme for the developers, I give you guys that. But it’s discouraging having to start over again, and again.
The game will get boring, and eventually everyone will find the next game to be suckered on sooner or later.
and you’ll have your whales playing the game themselves. And when they find out competition is hard, they’ll find a different game to play as well.
by Theonly100
I really like playing this game but it is really getting out of hand with cost and long really in true day and time for research like you would have 89 days to do a research and if you don’t have the money then you’ll be waiting 89 days because it cost to buy CDs so that could be fixed to where researches are not long and not get out of hand with adding stuff that just makes it for more pay to play. This game would be a five star. I asked one of my teammates on how they got a head. What was their secret? They related back American Express if you guys that do not know what that is it is a credit card so they let you know pay the plane.

So I love the game in a lot of areas I just see a lot of ways it could improve. First of all make the mutant lairs harder they are way to easy. Also a feature to queue into public matches would be nice. I enjoy the mini games but the actual kingdom part could use some revamping too it’s basically a copy paste rise of kingdoms so if you could add in some uniqueness while still keeping the entertaining mini games I think that would be a MASSIVE improvement. Make the mini games in the lairs more interesting it’s fun for the first couple of them but then it gets repetitive maybe add ranged weapons and or new attacks or maybe an entirely new combat system. Still I have to say LOVE the concept the stories great the cutscenes are great just fix the things I said and I think it could be massively improved.
by Mozzy VG
I’d give this 5 stars if I could figure out how to play with friends!! Apparently my buddy is on another server than me so we can’t play together and he can’t join my gang I mean that’s doesn’t make sense he’s tried looking me up and the gang and still nothing then he says are we in different servers and I said idk but I feel like that’s shouldn’t matter because we can’t control what servers we get out on especially since he downloaded the game a week after I did so how are we to play together or get on the same servers? Can someone help please! I don’t wanna restart just to play together but I feel like that’s the only option because than at least we can select the same server to play on
by Awerg1
so i got this game a couple months ago, i was obsessed with it. now with the couple months ive spent on it, i lost all of my progress. overall this game is amazing, it could use a couple fixes but i didnt give 5 stars because of this data wipe. if youre browsing through the ratings, i really recommend getting this. im just saying that theres a possibility in the future that they could add another update like this that wipes your progress. but if youre okay with things like that, i HIGHLY recommend it!
by NDSTNGSHBL
The game is good. If you aren’t paying money in the game though you will definitely be behind a lot of other players but the game is still enjoyable. One thing I e noticed since I have started though is overtime once we have reached launch pad and an overlord is established, at least for my server my people are inactive and the server is dying. There are only like 3 main gangs or clans in the game who are actually active in the game. This can be frustrating and there is a lot of inner dilemma and sort of diplomacy issues in the game.
by TechnoListic21
If you need a boredom killer this does it! like most games like this, it’s mostly a boredom killer but all In all…it has things other don’t…like actually talking with the subtitles instead of just subtitles of what the character is saying without the the actual sound of their voice talking….and I mean cmon, it’s like being put into a planet of the apes movie and being an ape…not to mention the added effect of also encountering zombie like apes who have been infected by a toxic like chemical…it’s pretty good for boredom killing and gets addicting the further you go.
by Hello1h Essex Job
Amazing graphics, awesome storyline, good challenges, barely to no ads, but one thing… you should chip in and help make more challenges, like I would go and scrap metal, face the same challenge over and over and over, ad something to where you can change the challenges. This is all and I recommend for people to play this game, not a pay to win type, good time killer, and most importantly, almost no ads, that is all, but could the creators please fix that issue, it would make this game a whole lot better. Thanks, looking forward to more games you will make!
by King 🦈
I downloaded this at first for a meme but it’s actually the most thought I’ve seen out into an app in forever. There’s actual well animated cutscenes and the character designs are actually really cool plus it’s all monkeys which is awesome. I haven’t seen 1 add in my hour of playtime and it feels like the developers actually put thought and care into this game. Gonna keep supporting so hopefully we get more games like this and not lazy tiktok games riddled with adds and pointless micro transactions
by C4_Eagle
This kills my boredom, now it is pay to be ahead of competition so to speak, but it also has the social environment. I dropped Facebook off of my agenda and utilize AgeofApes to be somewhat social.
Just a heads up, some people will dump 1000’s into this for what ever reason they see fit, but it can be enjoyable if you get a tight nit group of people on here to play with.
I’m hoping for a server merge soon, I play on server 57, and now 79.
It is easy to switch between servers.
The translation system could be tweaked a bit and a lot of the censorship needs worked on but overall if you’re looking to kill time, this be the game for you.
Be advised this game doesn’t filter people and their sick intentions so parents that do read my review watch over your kids shoulder. I’ve reported multiple sickos trying to get in touch with other players in a bad way, the reporting system is up to par and they act swift to solve any issues that arise, such as cyber bullying or the other scary stuff that comes with online connection.
by Ulic Buttle
I am changing my review to 5 stars. Just wanted to say that the update was great, however had to wait a few days for the second research slot to actually come up and get it. I was just a little impatient and should of waited.
Just to start this game is really fun. The thing that is important is getting into a gang that has a lot of active members and have a lot of power. Also I would recommend that you find friends to play with you as well.
This game is a game where you have to me participate in everything they have going on. There are many many rewards for completing events and daily activities.
The devs are really good at getting back to you if you have issue as well.
I also recommend that you join the discord. There are many many people there that can help you along the way. This has been a great community and everyone is really helpful. There are those few in every game that make it at time not fun, however if you are in a good active gang, that won’t be such an issue.
