User reviews

TapTower is a unique and addictive idle building game praised for its simple controls and relaxing gameplay. However, many players find it frustrating due to the overwhelming number of forced and long ads, especially when upgrading or switching menus. Progress is slowed by long wait times and costly upgrades that push players toward watching ads or microtransactions. Despite enjoying the tower-building mechanics and visuals, users report it can feel like a pay-to-win experience with limited offline progression, leading to mixed feelings about continued play.
Pros
  • The game is unique, addicting, and well made with simple and easy controls.
  • It has a relaxing and satisfying gameplay experience suitable for idle game fans.
  • Visuals and the concept of building towers are appealing to players.
  • Some users appreciate the incremental progress and tower-building mechanics.
  • Occasional updates and new content provide some continued interest.
Cons
  • The app has excessively frequent and long unskippable ads, often forced when switching menus or performing upgrades.
  • Upgrades and progress are heavily gated either by long waiting times (e.g., one hour per tap upgrade) or by requiring watching ads repeatedly.
  • The game feels pay-to-win or ad-heavy since many features require watching ads to advance or upgrade, frustrating players.
  • Offline progress is minimal, making it hard to progress without engaging with ads.
  • Currency and upgrade costs rise too quickly, causing grind and reliance on ads to proceed.

Ad machine. Too many random unskippable ads. Look at the upgrades page? 30 second ad. Try to upgrade? Not only random ads, you have to play an ad to be allowed to upgrade again. Not even a mile stone, just L6 to L7. Keep the ads to small boosts to make the game playable. I've played many games and watched a ton of 15-30 second ads when they're spaced out and give rewards.

I've played this game for a couple weeks and have enjoyed it. I see the gem reward after adds has increased from 10 to 30. But, I don't like the hour wait to upgrade the tap amount. I am currently on 60/180. And I get through a level quicker than waiting an hour at a time to upgrade. If this could be decreased to 15/10 minutes. This would be perfect. I've watched plenty of ads. But I don't want to watch 120 to get to my current maximum level on the upgrades! Love the game, just need some tweaks
