★★★★★ "Too many ads. I’m all for ads and happy to pay to remove them. But when ads are every minute or so, it’s clear a game is a money grab. This app is poorly designed and simplistic. Someone clearly spent 10 minutes to make an app and bleed people for money.…" - EeyorePD

Way to many adds
The game ain’t terrible but it’s a ad every 15 to 20 seconds. I played it for about a day and then deleted it cause I got tired of the ads.
Incessant ads
This is a game that would be fun if the ads ever let up a bit. And many are over a minute long.
To many ads
I never seen a game that ran this many ads don’t install if u rather watch commercials than play a game
Ads every 60 seconds
Honestly is a fun game but there is literally advertisements every minute
Too many ads
Too many ads mid game.
Hard to enjoy the play as it’s constantly interrupted.

Forced ads
I do not like playing games with forced ads
too many Ads
TOO MANY ADS
Bought no ads, I got ads!!
Buying no ads stopped working
ADS
Even after purchasing the ad remover you only get to enjoy ad free for a short time. Very misleading and not really that much fun!
Ads and more ads
Nothing but ads
Don’t bother
So many ads for everything and even nothing.. ads and ads!! Find another game!
Ten Minutes, Eight Ads
I found this game from an ad on another game. As a lover of wood cutting I thought it would be a quick, no brainer fun game. It could be. But between having to see ads just to upgrade NPCs enough to get the work done and the random ads every thirty to sixty seconds, I’m over it. I get the need to have revenue and get a little something for the effort, but really? The game might be worth the $4.99 to remove the ads but until I can play enough of the game to make that determination without being interrupted by ads I will never know. Another install/remove game for me. Too bad, so sad.
TOO MANY ADS
So many ads you literally can’t do ANYTHING
Could be fun, Popup ads too often.
Pop up ads happen too often. You can not even play for longer than a minute before it pops up again. It could be a fun game.
Too many ads
Too many ads
More ads than game
Forced ads in between optional ads is crazy, deleted.
To many adds
Can’t even play for a minute with out a add or cooldown add
Unplayable
For every minute of play, you will be watching 10 minutes of ads.
Advertising gimmick
For each 15-30 seconds of play you have have to watch a 1-2 minutes of ads
Cool game, excessive ads creates instant removal.
Just too many ads, it’s too bad. Fun game
To many ads
To many ads
Spend more time on ads
You literally spend more time watching the ads in the game then actually getting to play it. It’s beyond annoying
Keep away
Not like the adds no adds purchase is not real
垃圾
玩一个小时要看50分钟广告 劝大家不用下载
What the heck
Why are there so many adds. There is absolutely no reason for this game to have so many adds. I can’t play for 5 minutes without a stupid add popping up. Don’t waist your time on this game deleting and won’t play ever again.
To many ads
Every time you collect money, you have to watch a ad
Too many ads
Exactly what I said…gotta watch ads every minute. Terrible game.
Too many adds
I like the game but I can’t get anywhere because every time I do something I get an add ( every 5 seconds or so ) but what’s worse is they are long and you have to click 6 or 7 times to get out of it, therefore, game deleted!
Going to remove game
To many ads
Constant ads
Miserable to play because you play for 30 seconds before a 30 second ad pops up. Deleting this app.
To many ads
I just got done with an ad. Collected the money, and went right back to an ad. Literally not even a sec in between
So much time wasted
Toooo many stupid garbage ads and no game time
Too many ads
Even after paying to remove the ads, you can upgrade once with in game cash the next one you must watch a full ad to do the upgrade. You get to play the game about 10 seconds then must watch ads for about 45 seconds.
Way too many ads
This game is full of ads you can’t even play for 5 minutes without seeing an ad
Ads every minute
Could be a fun game if it didn’t have ads every time you collected money. Will not be playing or recommending.
NO CHEATING !!!!
I paid $4.99 but they charge me 19.96. This is not the first time I have been cheated out of money, not the amount in the game. I suggest Apple needs to strictly check the issue of buying and selling at the right price, no fraud.
Ads
Insane amount of ads. Annoying not worth it
Almost umplayable
Terrible game. Cant do much without watching adds then adds freeze and you must exit. Dont waste your time.
Enjoyment till Ad
I have never see a game with so many ads in my life any time u need a upgrade u have to watch a 1 minute long video to be level 2😂😂😂😂 dont download this game. Play the other lumber Inc its almost ad free
Ads
The ads kill the game play.
Ads galore
Way too many ads.
Sub par
Game is fun but. you can Only complete 12 contracts. I cannot get the last train car for the idle train. And the new areas I’m predicting will take about 2 years to complete. Which I find sad for a game I kinda. I basically beat the game.
If watching Ads was a game
I wanted to give this a shot. I played for 60 minutes. 41 minutes were ads!!!!! Are you kidding me??! Plus the “forced AD break, uhm what I just got done watching an AD. Deleted!
So many ads
So many ads… I should be getting paid to play this game.
WAY TOO MANY ADDS!!
It would be a fun and great game. I deleted the game after 10 minutes. I tried to give it a fair chance, but just way too many adds for me. I understand a some, even a few adds, but this game is literally an add every minute and a half.
Só anúncios
Tem mais anúncios que jogo. Do nada aparece um video de propaganda… lamentável.
False advertising
The game looks like one thing, but when you go to play it is something different. It’s a reasonably fun time killer, though the game play doesn’t really go anywhere. The game, and ads for the game, particularly what’s displayed in App Store, should be honest about the game play.
Too many ads
This game has so many ads, it’s very unplayable. Do not download this game!
Ads for dayssssssssss
Would be a fun game if ads wouldn’t pop up every 45 seconds.
No fun
Too many commercials
