UPDATE: remove ads option available. Now this is a 5-star game TL:DR VERSION: If this game offers an ad-free purchase upgrade, surely this can be a 5-star app easily. But, until then, the ads knock 2 stars off my rating for annoyance and hinderance of progression. IN DEPTH VERSION: The game itself is simple to understand, easy to play. As you unlock more regions and more routes, the pricing goes up, as is common with these kinds of games. At about level 5 or so, you can unlock 3 different “boosters” to increase your rate of earning to make gameplay quicker. Each can either be bought by your in game coins, or watch a free 30 second ad to gain (pops up every now and then). Where this game gets on my nerves is the mandatory 5-8 second ad watch every 45 seconds of gameplay. At first it’s not so bad, but when you have multiple areas unlocked and are trying to connect a city with all possible other cities, this ad break becomes troublesome, as most times you’ll find yourself in the middle of scavenging, and unable to complete the routes. It’s even more difficult when you return to the game and you have no idea which cities you were trying to connect, so you basically start all over and run into the same problem in 45 seconds.

Overall this is a very fun and addicting and game, only experienced a few issues. 1) It seems I’ve reached max expansion after maxing out all cities in just two of the seven areas/maps. The world map lists additional areas as “coming soon..” well when? After reaching a certain level in the first area (I believe lv 90ish) is when the second area becomes available. Is this true for all new areas or have those areas not been developed yet? This is confusing. It would be nice to know at what level the next area has been or will be unlocked. 2) In both areas completed I can no longer upgrade the car even though it appears I can. Is level 20 the max level? If so, it would be nice to know it’s been maxed out. Also, if that’s the case there shouldn’t be anymore “missions” related to upgrading the car. 3) Because there are so many road connection possibilities and the map can easily fill up very quickly, it would be nice to know how many connections have been completed out of the total connections or if max connections have been reached. 4) Same with the cities, because the map can fill up very quickly and city icons are tiny.. it would be nice to have a counter to know how many more cities there are to upgrade. Thank you!

I paid for the ad removal because I enjoyed the game. I tried to play it today and the app kept crashing. So I uninstalled and reinstalled the app and much to my chagrin, the ad removal that I had already purchased was gone. I tried to restore purchases, and that did not work. I then tried to re-purchase the ad removal to see if it would force it to recognize I’d already purchased it. Every time I tried to purchase it, it would give me the pop-up saying you already own this do you want to install for free? I would hit OK the app would crash. I’d open it back up and I still had ads. This is very frustrating as this is a game that I do enjoy to just relax with. I sent an email to where it said to email case of problems. Heard nothing back. So until I get what I paid for this will stay a one star review. This is not fixed sooner than later, I will reach out to Apple support. I have no problem supporting developers and small businesses but not when I don’t get what I actually paid for that right there is a scam. if this gets fixed, I will change this review from one star. *just got an email with the devs asking what the issue is; legit asked "Could you kindly tell us more about the problem you are facing? We are looking to improve the game. Thanks.” I paid for the ad removal and I’m still getting ads. How is that hard to understand? So still a 1 star till I either get a refund or no ads.
