in advertisement it says , unlimited life.but life is limited And look is in advertisement is totally different from actual application. so it is totally false, don't waste time fake presentation only

Out of energy. Ad is a lie
While the gameplay experience is smoothe for the most part, the consistent use of ai generated images greatly disvalued how much I enjoyed this game. I will not be spending any of my money on ai slop.
taking too much time to run
Yet another game with outright lies in the ads. Developers like this are the absolute worst of the worst. If you have to lie to get downloads, maybe make your game better in the first place?
Gra zaczęła się ciągle wieszać. Support zasugerował ponowna instalację i teraz już w ogóle się nie uruchamia. A była fajna. Szkoda Edit: super, że każecie mi sie odezwać do was w grze, która się wcale nie uruchamia, więc nie mam jak napisać do supportu! Wysłałam wam mail, napisałam na FB i nic! Słabe wspracie
after I downloaded it keep reloading but never open the game.. so frustrated 🥲
the game is not loading!! connection failure all the time, need to log on to you account every time with endless loading ... I think I will give it a break and uninstall it .. it is so frustrating!!
I'd like to purchase a credit pack but it's saying error your end. you don't want me to buy anything or progress? I don't understand why. it was fine a few days ago your help is all bots, nowhere to upload screenshots or get help. it's saying it's an issue your end. I only need to make an in app purchase to complete the weekly prize but I guess that can't happen.
hooray, another game that's nothing like the ads and is exactly like 1000 other games. Boring
tricky. they try to trick you into purchasing and buying all throughout this game. the recent trick is by putting a green button with the word "claim" ... doesn't sound sneaky, but after you have been playing the game for a while, you are used to clicking green buttons to CLAIM your prize. now they r trying use that 2 trick u into purchases. deceitful.
I downloaded this game because the ad said unlimited energy. I start playing and run out of energy. I'm tired of ads lying! If I could give it a zero, I would!
horrible you think it's one thing but it another
it's not working. Just loading...
Stuck loading forever, can't even start the game
not the same gameplay than in the ads
Done with this game. I paid hundreds of pounds already and I feel like they kept prompting me into paying more when they noticed I was a paying player. Orders became impossible to fulfill without paying more. GREEDY. Now the app is no longer loading almost like they had my money and that's all. Stucks at 60% on loading. No update available. Scammers.
this game simply won't run for me, just endless loading
Does good in beginning,get rewards and events that help keep playing. Then once yet get a certain lvl cant do much more basically them forcing purchasing to keep playing. Lots to be dumb to purchase anything from this garbage specially when after a few hours play already making it unplayable without spending, first off game isnt that good to begin with , waste of time and space.
I'm done with this game. They changed the way the art generator generated after they saw that it was giving people a hard time. So they changed it to one that generates better & now they just changed it back to the difficult one.
didn't bother getting started because of ads
This game is a rip off!! I won a chest for completing a side game/mission and added it to my grid and opened it, which requires tapping it multiplier times to release the "prizes." After clicking a few times I got a popup saying I was out of energy. I had just bought 250 energy so I was like no way. I'd it if that popup to check. The chest that I won cost me 16 energy per click. Forest they changed the daily chest to only have coins, now this? I've spent a good bit on this game. But no more!
A friend refer me dis game,but when i downloaded it and tried to open the app many times but fail so i even uninstall n install it since yesterday.
data is too much when updating even when someone one wants to login I don't like it
Suddenly all the event packs are 10.99. what kind of rip off is that? AND NOW the events dont even have the checklist anymore. used to get energy for new items.
Close to uninstalling. Used to enjoy it Most purchases are too costly to bother, hardly any small purchase packs. No one is paying £10+ for energy etc which is gone in 2 minutes Generators have rare items that you can go through hundreds of energy to get no where near enough items. I'm at a point that all orders are those kind of items making it impossible to move forward To those reading, I'd say don't bother with this one. Fun until it's a total waste and more annoying than anything
mediocre game play. it very quickly becomes super tedious and energy- costly to fulfill orders. my biggest grip is the story dialogue is probably written by ai... and poorly at that. it's incomprehensible at time. if Ai didnt write it, you should fire the person that wrote it.
I enjoy the main game & the various short duration side shows, however it isn't possible to progress very far without spending money - & boy, do they ask for money A LOT! Anyway, I think my time using this app is coming to an end.
It's a fun game, but it takes energy to merge items, energy that runs out extremely fast, and the only way to refresh it is either to wait an hour or to pay.
since the last but one update this game will not load. I did another update thinking it would be a 'fix' but it is no better
There are too many pop-ups that either force you to participate in events or pop-ups trying to get you to make purchases. The dialog is also really bad, there are a lot of grammatical errors and I stopped even reading them because it was so bad. I downloaded this app from a cash for gaming apps ans that was the only reason I continued. I Uninstalled after getting too annoyed with the constant pop-ups and forced events.
this game is made to be highly addictive. and not in a good way. it will waste your precious time until you notice the tactics to keep you hooked while causing frustration with paid rewards, payment conditions, and purposely lengthening certain events so we keep chasing them in the hopes that we will get the satisfaction of fulfilling them soon! But I'm guessing the frustration was not foreseen by the game designers. Secondly making 90% rewards paid is clear sign that they are preying on us.
