Bad data design
No banlance between the resources
where are the irons？
only woods and stones
The worst mandatory ads I’ve ever seen.
Unlocking a new island means there’s 10-20 new mandatory ads you need to watch. It’s 30 seconds video ads with an add 15 seconds advertisement after the initial 30 seconds.
p2w carbon copy of a free incremental game
game name: endless expansion
Its bad
Its not a good game
Ad machine
The primary mechanic is to watch ads, so if you enjoy that, you’ll like this game. Otherwise don’t waste your time.
Honestly kinda boring
It honestly kinda boring
I lost all of my progress
I logged on one day and lost hours of progress. There was nothing I could do to recover my progress.
Forced Ads
The devs take it a step further with ads. In addition to all the “watch an ad to gain X resources” and similar, they also place immovable objects blocking your path to success. You have to watch ads just to progress the game, without gaining anything in return.
Ads
So many ads!!
Lack of end game.
Honestly good game but it lacks the end game.
Iron?
Couldn’t find iron. Wood and stone only resources on the islands.
Almost awesome
Pretty simply but fun game and I’ve definitely enjoyed the experience until the gravel pit. I’m currently using 460k energy and the gravel pit takes up 300k of that. The game loop is simple enough to be fun until you need way more power than using sand will get you
Man. Ads ruin everything
I had been offline for awhile like over 100 days and I come back try to make the most of it with the ad bonus & it RESET?!
Ads
It’s a lot of ads. They’re “not forced” as some people point out, but you’ll start getting junk on your island that you can’t clear out unless you spend gold or watch several ads in a row (like 3 back to back to clear 1 pile)
Otherwise it seems fun to play, I would have liked to stick with it further. I would give it five stars if there was a reasonably priced in app purchase to remove ads
