I used to love this game, but there are so many ads on it now I can't even play. I would give it 5 stars if it was like it used to be. Oh, and I also paid for the no ads upgrade. If you want to add a perk on your virus, you have to watch ads for each perk. I know it's only 99c, but come on guys! Don't say no ads then give me ads. What kind of double dipping lie is that? Smh. I won't be installing any "Inc." Games here on out for fear of the same lie.

Pretty cool, except the planet of the apes one, which isn't explained at all. I can't figure out the goal of that one or how it's supposed to be used, the apes just don't seem to do anything, but if you don't invest all your points into them, then you can't stop the cure... so no win possible from what I can tell. Maybe if the special levels had ANY sort of tutorial like the rest do, since they're ENTIRELY DIFFERENT it would be more fun. Until they explain so I can finish the game 3 stars.
