Pet Rescue Empire Tycoon—Game Reviews

by Rhah123

I just my last 2 room upgrades. The very last room requires 10,000,000 in one of the upgrades for room and money vault fully upgraded only holds 7,200,000. I have already purchased the No ad bundle with increased income and a few other things. But this $10 dollar package I guess they want more money to complete a free to play game. At this rate even the 20% upgrade to vault for $6 usd wont be enough. and I refuse to be strong armed into paying real money just to be able to do an upgrade for an idle game.

Codigames used to be a pretty decent on game play. Last few games have been pretty shady. Even the dinosaur game I buy the no ad bundle around $10 and many months now not even a finished game. content is missing so can not finish game.

I’m done spending anymore more money on codigames. I’ve been cheated more than a few times now on shady business practices. Games are fun and just sad to see them go this route.

Don’t waste your time. Another game that you cannot advance without extreme patience or paying to win. Every “upgrade” within the game is frustratingly slow to get, you’d have to pay to have +1 builder for $7 (and there’s only 1 build team you get base game, 3 extra to buy for $7 each) or pay gems to finish your research to advance. And it caps the amount of coins you can have, you’d have to wait hours for your vault to be upgraded to unlock new research.
It is incredibly slow and doesn’t update correctly, I’ll start a research or building project and when I close my phone and wait for hours it just disappears like I did nothing. Apple loves supporting games that make boring and lazy creators money, do not waste your time with this one despite what the pre-bought, fake reviews say. Can’t find an honest game nowadays.

I ended up deleting the game because the way you can’t upgrade multiple things at a time without using your own money to upgrade your builders or researchers is ridiculous. I could immediately tell without reading all the other reviews that these people are money hungry it’s very obvious. You literally cannot complete the game without spending money. I thought it was weird that you have a cap amount of money you can collect and also you can’t even trade in your game money or gems for researchers or builders like other games give you the opportunity to. Don’t recommend downloading unless you’re looking to waste your hard worked money. I wish I would’ve read the reviews before downloading or I wouldn’t have downloaded. they are all right about their complaints.

I’ve been playing CodiGames for a while now but their last few releases have been extremely disappointing. I lost interest in this game and deleted it. Upgrades sometimes take over a day to finish building and as a result gameplay becomes stagnant. The newer games require you to research upgrades as well which takes even more time in addition to building the upgrades. If you want building/research to go faster they only give the option for you to purchase more builders with actual money. I have no problem paying for the game, as I always spend $10 to play with no ads. Paying for extra builders etc though on top of that is ridiculous.

I wish they would go back to making the games like Hotel Empire Tycoon, TV Empire Tycoon and Prison Empire Tycoon. Those were some of my favorites and had hours and hours of gameplay. This game had potential but if CodiGames doesn’t switch back to the original format I won’t be be downloading games from them anymore.

This is one of the higher quality tycoon games out there. Unfortunately, like most tycoon games, it suffers from an issue with one of the main features. The worst part of this game is building and researching. It takes too long in my opinion. And on top of the large wait times, you can only build and research one thing at a time. The counter to this is that you can spend diamonds to complete the build immediately or you can watch ads to shave off a bit of time. The only problem with the ads is that you have to wait in between watching each ad and to further waste your time, you can only watch a certain amount of ads. So depending on how long the timer is, you’re either forced to wait it out or spend precious diamonds which are hard to get a lot of. This is truly unacceptable to me because there is not much of anything to do while you’re waiting for something to finish being built especially if everything else is upgraded. It’s designed in such a way that it causes you to play the game less.. you’d think the main objective of a video game is to have you play it as much as possible but it’s quite the opposite, apparently.

Let’s start at the beginning… the game is super fun, extremely cute graphics and has kept me entertained for weeks during pregnancy bed rest… that being said it’s only enough to warrant two stars due to the realization I just came upon.

I have spent a few dollars on this game already and my vault only goes up to 10.2 million. The final upgrade for the final room costs 12 million…. How can this be a game that’s marketed as free to play not even be able to be completed?! It’s extremely frustrating considering how much time I’ve put in just for it to not be enough because I’m not willing to spend more money past the no ad bundle.

This screams money hungry and I almost suggested this game to my friends, when I NEVER play phone games, so they knew how great it was but now I will not be recommending to ANYONE!! No one should have to pay to win a free to play game.

I really really enjoyed this game and would play it any chance I got. I had discovered every animal, completed all the mini tasks with them, had 2 construction teams. Then last night, I thought that I finally finished all of my research. Instead, however, I woke up to find that a lot of my progress had been removed. The amount of money I could hold in my safe went from 7.2 million to 6 million. It said I hadn’t discovered hardly any animals, despite me literally having them in my rescue at that moment. I was now caring for question marks. All of my research said it was at level 0. Last night I was able to upgrade things in rooms that were now locked and needed to be researched prior to upgrading. It was really disappointing and ruined the game that I once loved.

The game wouldn’t open all day yesterday, I checked for updates to the game and my device, restarted my device, and none of that helped. Today I uninstalled and reinstalled PetRescueEmpireTycoonGame and it let me in again. Just one problem, it took away a bunch of progress I had made before it stopped working. I had 4 troughs, a bunch more stuff in the pet store, the toy rack in the warehouse, and had started upgrading the vault which at base time would take three days. I watched a couple ads to bring the time down. My game now has none of there things, and it doesn’t even remember that I had started the vault upgrade. It was supposed to get done sometime today and now it’s now I have to start again. I am mad.

I really hope the developers read this: GET RID OF THE BUILDING TIMES. I understand the wait time for building a brand new building, but for each update is ridiculous considering you can only do one at a time. The reason people like idle games it because it’s fast and you get to keep expanding and updating, but with the a huge wait time for every upgrade, your entire gameplay will just be waiting and eventually you won’t want to play again. Also the money/vault cap is ridiculous and shouldn’t exist. I assume they put it there cause the amount of time it takes to build stuff you’ll have accumulated so much money that the game would be pointless but not letting people get their earnings is not the solution to that. In conclusion, remove the building times. It disrupts the gameplay and rhythm that makes idle games enjoyable.

The whole idea of this game is fun. However this is one of those games where you spend 90% of the game waiting for buildings or research to complete. For example it is very easy to max upgrade every single room which you can never complete because you only get one builder and some rooms take a day to upgrade. I would think game creators would want you to spend more time playing the actual game then just waiting for a timer to run out so u can spend two seconds selecting build another room and then get off PetRescueEmpireTycoonGame for another day. I do enjoy how this game doesn’t have pop up ads you rarely see that anymore.

by Sam Weidman

Ive been playing the game for a little bit now, so here are some of the Pros and cons
PROS:
-only watch ads to speed things up, no intrusive ones
-animals have different traits, and I like matching them with adopters
-passes some time
CONS
-biggest one: MAJOR spike in difficulty after a certain level. At level 19 or 20, you only need 40 stars to level up. However as soon as I hit that the requirement to get to level 22 jumps to 1000 STARS. Which is absolutely ridiculous
-building takes a long time
-it gets to a point where all you do is try and adopt out animals while you wait for building
-content ends quick. Would love to see more upgrades, less build time, maybe even like a second location. Now when I get on, I have nothing left to research, im not going to level up for a VEEERY long time, and i cant increase the number of animal traits, capacity to hold them, number of adopters, or activities to do with them.
MISC:
-I don’t know if it was an update or a bug, but I just noticed a MASSIVE increase in the number of required things to do to level up the animals. It went from maybe like 2-4 things to EIGHT.
-overall, its a cute game that is fun initially until you hit that difficulty spike and run out of content

For a while, I really enjoyed this game. It gave me something to play to take my mind off of the hustle and bustle of life. I loved the fact that there wasn’t constant, unwanted ads that popped up. The only ads in this game are for either additional money or less time on upgrades. Although some of the upgrades do take a lot of time, I didn’t really mind. I have been going through and maxing out every room one by one. On my last surgery room, I discovered that there was not enough space in my vault to hold the money needed to finish the last upgrade. My vault is maxed. At this point, I discovered that in order to increase my fault any more, I would have to spend $10 on some silly package. Im not spending money on a game that is simply a time passer to me, especially since I am this close to the end. It’s very disappointing because I won’t get to feel the satisfaction of actually completing the game unless I spend my actual money. It’s still a good game, but it does have flaws. This, however, is the fatal flaw for me. Try it out though, I enjoyed it for a while!

Love the game but it doesn’t give enough rescues or good options for adoptions throughout the day I will get 3-4 rescues at one time once a day and some rescues take over a hour to rescue with no option to watch an ad to speed up the process then the adopters will have 1 characteristic they want but the animals have 3-4 characteristics which means I get less of the purple/blue things to help my reputation. Also building and researching takes way too long to be able to play the game when I want to I saved and spent 500 diamonds for a second build team but haven’t been able to get 500 more for a second research team. I am now at reputation 21 but from level 20 to 21 it was 40 stars and now from level 21 to 22 it takes 1000 stars so it’s going to take days if not weeks to get to level 22 since the building and research takes so long. I have maxed out a few consultation rooms, the shelter, money vault, and a couple distributors. The game definitely needs a second look/major update

by Kloekn

Too limit worker available for building, and building time take way too long.

We can use the gems to make building process faster, but too limit option to gain gem (except buying, complete tasks). Even tasks to gain gems take too long to complete too. I wish there is something can make the building time faster. Even watching ad doesn’t help much - should not have the time waiting between ads

For worker, there’s so limited option to gain more worker too (except from buying). Please add option when we watch a certain amount of ad, we can gain a worker, and each ppl have limited 3 workers for example (except buying more)

by Isabelle.warby

PetRescueEmpireTycoonGame is pretty good. The gameplay is simple and of course the developer has shown clear improvements from their other games. Ads are non existent unless you want one of the rewards they offer. I do have two complaints however: ad-free purchase should be a little more affordable and available in the actual store, because it’s not currently and unless you get an offer for an ad you can’t see the ad free option. Second, the vets request way too many materials for the amount you manufacture. While my facility is not fully upgraded I have no doubt that this will continue to be an issue even when I am. If it’s not, you should not have to be fully upgraded in order for you to be able to balance out the materials wanted vs the materials produced, this should be something you are able to do throughout the game play.

I love this game! Ive been playing for a day or two now and im already addicted. The thing is, building takes way too long. You only have a certain amount of ads you can play, and they only take a little amount of time off. Otherwise, you spend gems which are hard to get, then you run out. Next is the reputation and research, I hate that you have to have a certain reputation level to build something, and that it takes so much money to research. It takes up a lot of my time and customers storm off because i dont have the room built. Lets say i need to build another consultation room, first you have to upgrade your bank (which takes WAY too long) to get more room for money, so you can build and level the room. Its an entire process for ONE ROOM, which i think is totally unnecessary. I have not spent any money on this game so far and refuse to, but other than the building and reputation the game is great. Its relaxing and i absolutely love animals, and i log on almost every day (multiple times) to see if there are any new animals to rescue. Also, i think it should be easier to obtain gems. You did a great job making this game, awesome graphics and storyline. You have an objective, so it gives you motivation to upgrade and stuff. Im still only giving it 4 stars because i absolutely love the game and cant wait for new things

This game is so much fun, especially for an idle game. I love getting to rescue all the little pets!

The one suggestion I have though is with the tasks. I really like to complete all the tasks and while some are straight forward, others are kind of cryptic. There are so many different places in this game where you can upgrade things that when it just names something but not where to find it, I can never complete it unless I do it by accident. For example, one task I have to complete right now says, “upgrade research efficient consultation improvements at level 1”. I have no idea where the heck I need to go to do this. It would be helpful to be able to click on the task and have it link you to where you need to update.

Other than this I love the game! Not a ton of adds but you can watch some to get more money if you want.

I downloaded this game a month or so ago. It’s been one of the most enjoyable games thus far. I haven’t had to purchase anything to continue playing the game. Building stuff does take time and you can watch ads to shorten the time. My only complaint is that I’ve not upgraded everything as high as it can go and I can’t progress anymore until the producer releases another update. I have max money and everything is upgraded to the max level. I will continue to play this game so long as the developer releases an update!

by RhodsterMay

I know it’s cliche to say, but I never write reviews, but I had to write this one. This game is an absolute delight! From the moment of download I was addicted. Rescuing cute dogs and cats while building up your clinic has been so wholesome. The aesthetic is so pleasing to the eye!! The animations are adorable and the overall look and sound makes it a cozy fun experience!! Unfortunately I am so sad because, I am quickly max-ing out every category of upgrades… and I will be devastated when I cannot level up or upgrade anymore… will PetRescueEmpireTycoonGame grow? One hopes it will!! Please continue, and add more content!! There are some bugs here and there but it’s so easily forgiven because of how cute the game is! I hope the devs read this and give us more content ❤️🙏🏼

I just downloaded this game today, but I already love it! It has so many little thoughtful things in the game mechanics that help navigating through the game. Like being able to go to the menu and click “go” to find a a building (I get lost easily in games so this is very helpful for me) and the concept was very easy to pick up! Not to mention that the style is adorable. I love all the animals and the characters are a cute style too :) Like I said, I just started playing, so I’ll update if any problems arise, but I’m impressed so far!

Note: if you don’t like waiting for things, idle games aren’t for you. But I like having the ability to put these kinds of games down and come back to them later when I’m bored

I don’t often review games unless they are either really good or really bad. This one absolutely surprised me! I love the natural flow of progression in the game. The art is pleasing, there’s not much time you have to waste between upgrade. Even the tasks and goals are fun and entertaining. It’s hard to find genuine games which don’t have annoying constant ads. There’s ads in this game, but mostly you get rewards or get to choose when to watch them. I like that option way better than random ads interrupting the game. This way it flows easier and provides a better experience for the player. Fantastic job! Maybe do some fun decorations for holidays around the world in the game or something. Otherwise the game is fantastic! Keep up the great work!
