Review summary

The app's concept as a business simulation is appreciated and can be enjoyable for casual fans of tycoon games. However, numerous users report an overwhelming frequency of unskippable ads that severely disrupt gameplay. Progression is heavily gated behind watching ads or spending money, causing frustration. The game also suffers glitches and freezes. Many reviews warn against the aggressive ad strategy and difficulty, which leads to a poor overall experience despite the good concept.
Pros
  • Interesting and enjoyable concept of the game for those who like tycoon or business simulation games.
  • Game can serve as a time killer or casual gameplay experience.
  • Offering ads to skip waiting times or advance education is somewhat appreciated by some users.
Cons
  • Excessive frequency of ads disrupting gameplay, often popping up every few actions or screen changes.
  • Ads are unskippable and forced, making the game frustrating and unplayable for many.
  • In-game progression mechanics are overly difficult or unbalanced, requiring watching many ads or in-app purchases to advance.
  • Game suffers glitches and freezes, leading to loss of progress and poor user experience.
  • Monetization strategy seems aggressive and poorly balanced, forcing players to pay or watch ads to continue.

I enjoy the concept of the game but the ads really take the fun out of it. Every few times you click on one of the icons an ad pops up. 30 seconds each time. I end up just closing the game completely and restarting each time but it's gotten really annoying. I even went into settings to remove ads with a purchase but there was a pop up saying it can only be done using an in-app purchase...I know that. There is no other way to remove them. Unless this is fixed, I may uninstall very soon.

I actually THINK I like this game... and would give it more stars... However, the amount of ads in this thing is unreal. It COMPLETELY ruins it for me. And more often than not I actually would pay to remove the ads. But I like to at least play the game and see if I like it enough to pay. And I can't go more than 20 seconds without another ad popping up. So I would not recommend.

To have a semi successful playthrough, you'll watch over 100 ads. I am not exaggerating. I come out of the screen from voluntarily watching 5 ads in a row to make it remotely possible to keep up and it immediately plays another ad. You can expect 2 of every 5 minutes of "game play" to be ads. There are no options. There is only one way to be successful and you must buy everything in the exact order outlined by the jobs. There is not even a game. It is just ads.

This game was good until you guys added the towers now it's more time to wait much more to do when some people was already having a challenging time with cars and other stuff I'm basically saying the tower thing was a big turn off for me and hopefully you guys can make it easier or remove it. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Edit: and btw before the tower thing came it was 5 star rating definitely

Way, way, way too many ads. I get it you want to make money.. But if you want to get people to pay they need to stay interested in the game. Ads are highly frowned upon. Especially when it's every tap on the screen or every other tap on the screen. It's no fun playing with ada and people don't want to pay to remove the ads. You need to try a different tactic in gaining paid customers.

Horrible amount of ads. I thought, at first, this was a better version of "From Zero to Hero" but it is not. It's just as ad-ridden. Can't even change the menu a couple times without getting an ad. I played it for less than 5 minutes and already saw at least 5 ads. That's ridiculous. When are these companies going to learn that spamming ads is the QUICKEST way to lose a repeat player. I will not play this game anymore, nor will I play anything released by them in the future. Great job.

Gave the game a try and it's unplayable once you get to a certain point in the finance section. Good game in theory, but it forces you to either watch (I'm guessing at least) 60 ads where I got so you don't go in to debt or pay for cash to continue. Once you move up a rank in a section you cant move back so you fail unless you watch ads. Would not recommend as you can't complete the game normally, ads pop up constantly which is annoying, and it doesn't match the game it originally advertised.

This game is an exercise in frustration. Ads everytime you exit a screen and always in the red. Requirements to get better job cost more money than you have which you cabt get without a better job you will spend 90 percent of your time watching continual ads to get enough money to make ends meet. So frustrating. There are other games with this same concept that do it much better. Simpler graphics but better gameplay. Deleting game. Dont waste your time

I appreciate that ads are offered to skip things (like advancing education for free & faster than just waiting for game time to pass). It's very annoying when the app dev decides those are not enough, and has an ad triggered most times when changing screens in game, that disrupts the flow of the game and makes it very unplayable. Uninstalling.

It was okay at first. It was full of ads, but if you make any purchase then the ads are removed, even with the lowest purchase of 99 cents. Some games sell ad free versions for 4 to 5 dollars, so this seemed like a reasonable thing to me. Now, this is when it was good, right after the initial purchase and before the 30 minute mark. After about 30 minutes you will find yourself at the end of the first career path and you move to the next industry, for a huge loss of salary.... with higher requirements that cost you more.... So you make less money a month while you have higher expense requirements per month...... what the eff? So you can now watch ads for money to supplement the lost income (something you just paid to get rid of) or you can... you guessed it, pay more money to get in game currency so you don't go broke. Don't play this game. Don't give them any money. This is a simple cash grab with built in mechanics to force you to watch ads or pay money to continue playing. Sure there is a casino and stock market option for trying to make cash but it's just another lame attempt to keep you invested.
