Booster Up!

So I got this to waste time. At about level 14 or 15, I ended up with tons of gems, so I started applying them to upgrading the starting level of parts. Big mistake! Once you start buying and applying parts that are above your level, the game can’t seem to handle it. I lift off, but never get any closer to the next planet or boxes. The speed reads 0. You can get crazy high scores , but there is no advancement in the game. I’m hoping that maybe if I catch up with unlocking the correct rocket for the level, the game will be playable again. But I doubt it since I went higher level on the upgrades. Plus, getting $6.5 B for the rocket is much harder with lower level planet facilities. I should’ve read some reviews first. The 2 reviews prior to mine warned of this problem. So here’s an update. Got the highest rocket for my level, and suddenly everything went back to normal. I was able to advance again. At least for a little while. As I advanced, I took a cautious approach. Only gemming the upgrade to my level. I was able to get several planets pretty quickly, but I also noticed my L/S going up, no matter what upgrades I did. Still worked fine up to .5 L/S. But suddenly after I reached upgrade lvl 31, I got to the next planet, everything autocombined and I got everything upgraded to lvl 32. Still wasn’t on the highest lvl rocket. I did a flight, the L/S was above 1.0 so I only made it about halfway to the next planet. When it returned to the Home Screen, all of my upgrades were at lvl 31 again. I tried combining everything again, and selling old parts, but they wouldn’t sell. I tried waiting things out again till I could get the highest available rocket. But ran into the same issue. Game just got all wonky. Finally gave up and deleted. Good time waster, but the glitches stop you cold.

Hello there, this review is intended for the developers. I’ve been enjoying your game. I think that you need to cut down on the amount the rockets reward. As well as add a bail out button. I’ve been able to upgrade my rocket, way passed the amount I should be able to at a low level. And if you miss the planet then you are kinda just stuck going up until you run out of fuel. I’m on level 18, upgraded to 27. My fuel consumption is 0.01 and I was able to keep flying for over 20 mins. I decided to just close the game since there is no way to end it. Thanks for reading. I really hope you take this review into account.

For starters, this game is kind of fun, but does get boring quickly, as your “missions” only last a few seconds, before you start over. Earning money to buy upgrades for your ship without watching ads is extremely slow, which adds to the boring factor. Then you have the pop-up ads that happen periodically, which aren’t too long, but are more frequent than they need to be, further adding to the boredom. Speaking of ads, one reason I downloaded this game was because the ad for this game, which I saw in another game, started out with “the best no-WiFi game,” and then you’re shown this game. Unfortunately, this is extremely deceptive. While no, you technically don’t need “WiFi,” you do need a data connection (at least cellular), or else the game simply will not load. The deception is in the fact that, by stating “…no-WiFi…” in their ads, this gives the impression that you don’t need a data connection at all, which also gives the impression that there aren’t any ads, because what game REQUIRES WiFi specifically to play their game… Again, you MUST have a data connection, or the game will not load at all, and along with that data connection comes many ads. I want to like the game enough to pay for no ads, BUT a company that employs deception to get you to download their game in hopes you’ll like it enough to forgive their lies isn’t a company I want to hand money to. I should have known what was coming when I saw that it’s a Rollic game, which is the epitome of both deception and greed.
