Rapid Reload

First off, game mechanics are solid. It is just like the ads. BUT there is an energy mechanic which at first is find. My biggest problem however is that it seems to be a server timer rather than a phone timer. I understand it’s to prevent changing times on your phone which tbh not that big of a deal, but even with perfect internet my phone can’t connect to the games server sometimes. This means I just can’t play the game cause I have zero energy!! Even waiting a full day to restore energy, I don’t actually get the energy until the game server is connected to. Which means no offline play? And for a game like this that’s kinda wack. Also I swear I used to get ads every 2-3 rounds which is of course annoying but I get they gotta make money. But noticeably this last week I’ve been getting ads every round? I’m on city 6 now which idk if that’s far or not but ever since city 4 it’s been every round Is an ad. It’s like once I got the battle pass they know I might spend money so they try to frustrate me into buying the ad blocker… kinda scummy.

When you start it’s amazing, decent gameplay, no forced ads, all that. But then it’ll tell you that you’ll start to get forced ads ever 2-3 levels Unless you pay, not a killer but annoying. Then you’ll get a double gun, which for every round after the first you’ll have to watch an ad for, not too bad, but ideally you’d hope there’s an option to buy it instead of watching an ad every level, and there is, for ONLY 15 levels for $5 USD. Which 15 levels will go buy FAST. so you’d think “well, I’ll just deal with the ad every level” but after a certain number times of doing this (I haven’t counted) it locks you out of watching an ad for it for TWELVE HOURS. Plus, my timer just chose not to go down for some reason so after over 12 hours and opening the game back up, I’m still at 10 and a half hours. That feels like the perfect way to tell players you don’t want them to play the game. Overall it’s fun, but not past the first few hours when all this starts. I’ve keep playing, and have noticed the in game clock seems to have been fixed, Altho 12 hours is still ridiculous, but another issue has come up. I’m to the 3rd city I believe where the new rarity is called legend, and the chances of getting it on the wheel are rigged. I’ve had it over 50% multiple times, and not once have I gotten it. Even several where it’s over 70% and it always manages to land elsewhere. It’s been improved since my initial comment, but not enough to raise my opinion.

The sound is bugged (stops working entirely) after having to watch certain ads. You are hit with an ad after every round almost. The sound bug is easily fixed by closing and opening the app again. The chance wheel is rigged as can be. The % it shows is not even close to reality. It will “land on” common 9 times out of 10 no matter if it’s a 55% chance or 10% chance. Once you level up the wheel this seems to get better at least. You seem to level up at a decent rate though so that’s why I give it 4 stars instead of 3. Some of these clicker games seem to never let you level up (like “The Army”), but this one isn’t bad.
