The intro is designed to make sure you pay to be able to play, and I’m not going to pay for something I don’t even know if I like playing yet. Not to mention it’s so long I almost got so bored I was about to give up. Persisted just to find they purposefully make you run out of cash to use your real money. Their responses to reviews are also flat lies, they say pay is optional but you literally can’t get past the team assembly part without spending money. Also “making money is part of the challenge” what challenge if I can’t even start the actual game? SCAM.
This game is horrible I was made to be charged which I agreed because of my choices but then my warehouse burned down and was forced to start over and my purchased money is gone, and I didn’t even get to play and now I have to watch 5 adds to even play, what a stupid game I would like my $6 back thank you!
This game had all of the potential to be great! Initially after the first 45 seconds of playing I thought to myself yea I’m about to be spending money on this game so I can level up fast but when it’s literally a requirement for you to spend real cash to make it past the first/ second section of the game which total up to about 5-8 minutes of play time!! I would have spent money on this game but setting up the game to where I have to spend to continue is ridiculous!!!
