If you’re like me, you like to get every character/bonus in a video game, then your probably trying to do that right now. Anyways... I found the adds that pop up like every 3 round quite annoying, so I got the piggy bank character. It was $3.99 (I believe) and gives you 1000 coins, double coins, and the benefit of not watching those pesky adds after 3 rounds. BUT, the thing with collecting characters is that sometimes you will run into duplicates, and, if you want to get a new character, are forced to watch an add, or pay even more. This process happens twice, but is apparently “really rare” or I thought. Before my purchase, this only happened once. Now, after my purchase to get more characters, coins, and less ads, this happens literally every other character. It’s a clever way to get me to watch an add, but also an unfair and cheap way as well. So here’s my review: really fun game, great design, but a horrible way to treat customers. If your looking to play a fun game, this is what your looking for. If your looking to complete a game, don’t play it. If this is “fixed” or changes were made, I will change my review, but until then 3 stars.

This is a quick, tap and go game, that is very unforgiving. As the obstacles are randomly generated, if you get stuck it’s immediate death despite it being out of your control. I have experienced freezing and lag that’s detrimental to the game play, as this game requires quick reactions. There nothing added to the game other than different skins. I wish when you got coins you could buy booster, or time warp (to slow time). Any other fun perks to enhance gameplay and get your farther. There aren’t any game modes that I see, it’s the straight forward jumping through the obstacles, but I wish you could tweak the rules, especially as a beginner. Like allowing you to go back, to get you back on track, without the eagle immediately taking you out. If you’re on a log, and need to jump on a leave you have to jump back a log to get to the leaf, but that’s impossible as it’s immediate death, to try to correct yourself. I get the challenge of the game, but it’s very frustrating at times. This is an addicting game, but if more things (other than skins) aren’t added, it’s a game you’ll soon move on from.

I honestly love Crossy road, it’s a classic and everyone knows it, but as of recently the amount of duplicates you get is insane. I have around 20-25 characters unlocked, but for whatever reason it never fails to give me duplicates at least once. You see they try to “fix” this problem by letting you watch an ad to have another chance at getting a character, but even after that I still some how often manage to get a duplicate. Oh but I can just watch another ad to get another shot this time with a 100% guarantee of getting a new character, see this wouldn’t be a problem if it didn’t happen so often, as it seems as an easy way to get money, making the odds of getting a new character so low makes it almost guaranteed I would have to watch an ad to get a new character, exactly what they want. It’s really agrivating working hard to get 100 coins to unlock a character to always just end up having to watch an ad making all the work useless essentially. I hope they patch this so I can enjoy the game like I used to back in middle school.
