I paid for the ad removal because I enjoyed the game. I tried to play it today and the app kept crashing. So I uninstalled and reinstalled the app and much to my chagrin, the ad removal that I had already purchased was gone. I tried to restore purchases, and that did not work. I then tried to re-purchase the ad removal to see if it would force it to recognize I’d already purchased it. Every time I tried to purchase it, it would give me the pop-up saying you already own this do you want to install for free? I would hit OK the app would crash. I’d open it back up and I still had ads. This is very frustrating as this is a game that I do enjoy to just relax with. I sent an email to where it said to email case of problems. Heard nothing back. So until I get what I paid for this will stay a one star review. This is not fixed sooner than later, I will reach out to Apple support. I have no problem supporting developers and small businesses but not when I don’t get what I actually paid for that right there is a scam. if this gets fixed, I will change this review from one star.

*just got an email with the devs asking what the issue is; legit asked "Could you kindly tell us more about the problem you are facing? We are looking to improve the game. Thanks.” I paid for the ad removal and I’m still getting ads. How is that hard to understand? So still a 1 star till I either get a refund or no ads.

This “seemed” like a cute little time killer app, at first. There are major issues that need addressed ! First , I understand this is a small studio development, however the incessant ads are pervasive to say the least. So much so that the developers wrote a couple paragraphs that explain how they keep the development going on the app and even go so far as to say how annoying ads are, in the icon to remove ads. The low end quality of the app is in no way worth $9.99 to remove ads. My reason for this is the fact that there is no implementation of away earnings . Unless you have the app open and are actively playing , all earnings stop. What makes it even more pervasive with the ads, to the point I feel it’s engineered to encourage paying for ad removal, is that earnings while game is open stop every 15-20 seconds of while 30 second ads interrupt play. It’s aggressive marketing and aggressive pervasive ad placement , bordering on apple developer TOS for the platform. To be honest , ad revenue is not the only revenue available to even small studios . Try introducing a lower cost of ad removal, add in some in game content to purchase at a reasonable cost . Perhaps a coin purchase or a way to buy some keys to open additional territories . But at the current way the game runs , or fails to run from flooding of ads , I see this game , or any future apps failing to pick up momentum enough to be a success in this industry!

This is an amazing game and would be well worth it if it weren’t for the ads. Thankful, they created a solution by allowing you to make a one-time purchase to eliminate ads for good. This would be great accept that after making the purchase, the ads didn’t go away. It’s not registering in the app, even though I’ve gone through the process of re-purchasing the same ad block about 9 times (it’s free on the App Store since you’re technically buying the same exact item). Every time I do it, the text box pops up that says the purchase was successful, but the page in the app itself that advertises the ad block stays up, and when I ex out of it, I still get ads. This is so upsetting. I’ve tried everything. It’s the newest version of the app, I’ve refreshed the app, I’ve deleted and redownloaded the app. I even changed the language to English (I keep my phone in Portuguese). Nothing works.

Please make a patch for this! Then I will give this app 5 stars because it honestly deserves it. The concept is simple but enjoyable, the graphics are high quality, there is tons of room for expansion and progress since you literally have the whole world to explore. Well done, just please fix this bug. Thank you! You’re doing great!
