Fun but some problems
Wed Jun 15 2022 pinneapeleman123ytLet me start this with some positives this game is really fun if you have nothing to do or while waiting for something (exactly what a mobile game should be) but i have some issues theres WAY to many ads and it requires internet to run for some stupid reason listen i have no problem with watching an ad every once and a while but this game gives you an ad after EVERY attempt and it can get really annoying after a while another problem is that it drains my battery way faster than any other game ive played but thats not that big of an issue as long as u can charge your phone otherwise i really like some of the level designs, tool designs, and upgrades it’s honestly a really fun game i just wish the developers would loosen up on the amount of ads they show you
Good but has problems like most mobile games
Thu Jul 04 2024 curiousBananaChipsAs most mobile games are it spams with ads and you can’t play without a connection unfortunately. The ads aren’t terrible though like they aren’t incredibly long and you can skip after a bit.
The graphics are not as bad as a lot of games are and it’s really satisfying and addictive to progress. Lots of games (usually made by Unity) are very simple and just appear like they’re gonna be laggy but this one is bright and clean looking and most of the time runs smooth.
It does gets kinda laggy/buggy at times tho like often when I finish a level it doesn’t let me progress and it just shows that I have no fuel but nothing happens I can move around still even if there’s nothing to destroy and I have to close out of the game and restart it to get back in and then it opens on the next level.
I recommend playing this game even if it’s just until you get bored after a week and delete/forget about it but it is Voodoo after all it’s gonna be decent quality 👏🙌 (minus the ads)
Don’t delete if you pay to turn off ads
Sun Jan 22 2023 Advent1027First off, other reviewers have made a good point, this game is super basic. The levels start repeating themselves with no additional difficulty. The turn off ads link only shows up periodically, which is super weird to me. As you go, you can pay for permanent upgrades, since the upgrades you do make don’t stick between levels. Permanent upgrades are the treadmill (which helps, but it helps way more if you cut your blocks in specific ways), additional gold per block, and ability to hold more fuel. It’s a cool game, but again, there’s really only so much you can do with it.
Why I’d recommend just deleting the game… I paid to turn off ads, deleted the game (because there’s no reset upgrades button to start completely over), and started getting spammed by ads again when I started over. I restored purchases, which did nothing and I kept getting more ads, and because the no ads link is only there periodically, I really have no idea if the game registered by purchase or not… which is super annoying because every time you complete a turn, more ads
Why do game devs do this?
Fri Nov 18 2022 AtlasCrosbyI would rate this game 5 stars because I love playing it in my downtime. However, I’m not going to be keeping it for one reason and one reason only. The same mistake nearly all mobile game developers make. Ads. Ads literally make it unplayable with no way to disable them. I wouldn’t mind paying 5 bucks to remove ads from a game I like. But no, you get an ad after every single level, and even in the middle of you trying to play. When will have developers realize that ads ruin games? Literally everyone hates ads. This game is no different, the ads absolutely ruined it. I’ve always loved the Voodoo company and their games, but this is unacceptable. I never wrote reviews, but this one really did it for me. Devs, if you’re listening, stop with the ads. NOBODY wants to play your game when it’s littered with ads. Cool game, I love it. But due to the constant stampede of ads I can’t play it. Most of the time you spend on this game will be dedicated to watching ads. I’d say 20% game 80% ads is about right. Save yourself the trouble and don’t even download it. You’ll end up uninstalling it just like me.
Addictive but Terrible.. Hear me out
Mon Jun 20 2022 RY829wOkay so basically, it is a normal game where you crush something and yk. BUT THE FACT THAT YOU NEED WIFI TO MOVE A CRUSHER????? Ok lets get real, no one is gonna like your game if your being forced to watch ads and you need wifi to move a crusher. My house is having an upgrade which issues the wifi and i keep getting kicked out because of this. I’m also going somewhere and the trip is 10 hours, i have been searching for games for the last 16 minutes and i thought I found the perfect game until i found out that you need a very strong wifi in order to play, dont forget that you need to keep exiting so all your progress will be gone you need to exit for gas, strength and things you need in order to beat the level, EVEN LEVEL 1 IS HARD? Okay your game might be good and addictive but the fact that your being so greedy with ads wifi and stuff makes the game just a no. You should fix it before half of the people who like it uninstall it.
Good but to much ads
Sun Oct 02 2022 ryder keeneSo the game got fun until my first ad came up, until I go to the next level there’s another ad I tried skipping it but there was no skip so I had to watch the entire thing finally stopped so I went back playing the game, in the beginning of the next level there is another ad so I tried doing the thing where you turn off your Wi-Fi and you can play without ads but it said you need Wi-Fi for the game, it’s like the game want you to watch it’s ads just read a waste your time just so that we can get to the next level just to see another ad. So then I try getting to level 50, when I get to level 10 there’s literally like five ads at once, so I deleted the game because there’s way too many ads. I mean if the creators could fix it to where there is less ads I would download it again but until they fix the ad problem I’m not gonna play this game again. PS if you ever play this game be worned, there’s lots of ads and I mean like thousands of ads. Please fix this ad problem.
Great game! Lots of ads! But lacking levels.
Tue Jun 14 2022 Leaf65Very very fun concept.
Just a relaxing game kinda similar to ASMR
The little taps of the phone increasing in pace as your drill increases in power is a very nice touch.
The physics are also very nice and fluid
My only real complaint besides the ads. Which for $2.99 you can get rid of them, I feel that’s fair.
The game is very addicting and relaxing, it’s simple and it does not need any thing else
OTHER than some kind of simple level editor or maybe make it so you can take an image off your phone and turn it into a level. I’m
Not too sure how complicated that would be to implement. But it’s an idea that would increase the replay ability.
As it stands now there are “10” levels which are all great but have questionable progression
After the “10” levels. The game counts the next level as “11” even though it just really starts back at the beginning.
You do get to keep your permanent upgrades though so it’s nice to comeback and see the progression you’ve made.
Either way. I wish just a tiny bit more love was put into the game, I think it has a lot of potential for an actually relaxing game.
Just please add some more levels! And maybe take it easy on the adds.
Good job!
Ad simulator
Thu Sep 22 2022 1884626189462819947I got tired of seeing ads for this game constantly, so I figured I would download it and give it a try, “it can’t be THAT bad, right?”. Buy was I wrong.
To go along with a repetitive set of gameplay (which isn’t horrible on its own if the gameplay is fun or challenging) is an absolutely insane amount of ads. No other game I have played has force fed me ads as fast as this. It is almost to the point of being about 1 ad per minute of play time (not including time taken to upgrade). Typically games like this will let you play 3-5 times before they throw an ad at you because, hey, we all need to make money, but this is just a disgrace to all app developers that give a crap about their games. This is a shameless money grab in that they use you to get ad views.
In all, I wouldn’t recommend this game to a single person on this earth and would rather tell people not to play it just to spite the greedy slimeballs that put out this heaping pile of trash.
Poor execution
Wed Aug 24 2022 jpsulakThe idea of the app is great. And the gameplay is cool for about twenty seconds. Then they ask you to rate the game. After you have been asked to rate the game, you are then shown your first ad. And then after every attempt, you get unskippable ad after unskippable ad, to a point where there is more ad play than gameplay. I am sick and tired of every single voodoo game being a good idea in theory and being so terribly executed. If you want me to watch ads, offer me an incentive to click it myself. Don’t force an ad on me because I WILL deleted the game (I already deleted this one). Or for this game specifically, maybe make one of the upgrade tiers reliant on ads. Like no ad plays for finishing rounds, but if you want to extend the length you can do that by watching an ad. I really don’t get too worried by ads when I as a user activate them myself to get a reward. It’s the unskippable required ads that make me delete games immediately
Another Ad generator from Voodoo
Wed Jun 08 2022 TheRealSlickWillJust like the title says, it’s another Ad generator from Voodoo. If we set that a side, it’s still a bad game. Lets start with the title “Bucket crusher”. There is no bucket. The graphics are basic and there is a lot of lag. I am playing on a new Iphone and no other game I play lags. The game play is basic and repetitive. The skins you unlock that it forces you to put on are basic. To the point of “but it’s free”. No it is not. Any game that forces you to watch ad’s is taking something from you more precious than money…. Your Time. It is the one thing none of us can buy more of. Why do you think ad companies pay so much? Stop giving yours away like you have infinite. Especially to companies that make horrible games like this. I am a gamer and given away lots of my time to very good games, on mobile, pc and console. Do not waste yours on this game or company.
Setting aside the Ad issue, I would still rate this game 1/5.
