Ad Farm and Ridiculous Monetization
This game takes a total of over $40 dollars to get the upgrades you spend with pure money, with gems, it totals to OVER $400 DOLLARS. Scroll down for math and conclusion. Math below: So in the end, if you wanted to get certain upgrades with gems and not spending pure money, you will need to watch OVER 16 1/2 HOURS of ADVERTS if you manage to get 15 or above gems/video which range from 5-20. Three upgrades alone cost 10,000 gems each, totaling 30,000. And guess how much you can get for $100? No you can’t unlock all, you can get ONE of those upgrades. You get 14,000 gems. So then you can spend another $50 to get 6,500 gems and unlock a second, but you still need to either watch 5 1/2 hours of videos or spend another $100 MINIMUM to skip becoming an ad farm for them. They treat us as livestock. If you want these upgrades alone, it is where I got the base value for advert time spent, you need to spend OVER 16 HOURS being these developer’s ad farms. Conclusion: This game is an absolute scummy way to monetize both adults and children alike with gem payments, increasing per upgrade to hide the exponential increase behind a mystery paywall, where they want you to spend your time generating revenue exclusively for them and removing from your fun by making ads and spending exorbitant amounts of money a necessity to progress after only a day of gameplay. -
Challenges are Broken
I want to start off by saying this is a really fun game, and I’ve sunk a lot of time into it, but once I passed the 54th mission and opened challenge mode, none of the challenges are ever claimable! I’ve done three different ones, that all take around 2 to 3 days to complete, and each time the claim button doesn’t light up. I went on the forum and it said you can’t use ads or any boosters or the game won’t register the challenge being completed. My third attempt I didn’t do anything ad related and it still didn’t work. Tried contacting support and they just sent a generic message that said they are working on fixing this in a new version of the game, but until then I’m just leaving this as a 1 star rating cause it’s a game to nowhere right now. Fun while it lasts, but eventually there’s no point and these awesome challenge rewards are taunting you but you can never obtain them. -
Challenges don’t work
After completing all the missions, I started working on the challenges, but the game doesn’t let you claim the reward once completing the challenge. I filled my chocolate pots to 10,000,000 on 2 different levels and neither allowed me to claim the reward. The second level I tried (choco-phone) I continued letting the pot fill up until I could no longer purchase upgrades of any type, which is more than 100 times the amount required for the challenge, and I was still not able to claim the reward. From what I’ve seen, many other people have had this issue for awhile and it still hasn’t been addressed. Update: I emailed the developers back in July 2020 regarding the issue and they said they were fixing it. Clearly not a concern for them since it’s still not fixed and users have been reporting the problem for at least 2 years. -
Developers don’t respond to game issues
Reached out to developers due to an issue in the game. It’s 4 days and no resolution. I’ve received one email from them and it says - “can you confirm closing the game and reopening it didn’t fix the issue?” Come on. Of course I closed out of the game and went back into it. Nothing else and I’m almost on day 5. Not to mention that I spent money to make the progress that the game isn’t giving me. Don’t waste your time downloading this game. There are plenty of other tap games you can download and the developers will actually respond when you have an issue. I’ve contacted other game developers and they’ve responded and resolved any issues quickly. Definitely don’t recommend this game for two reasons: 1-you’ll spend time to make progress and then won’t get it and 2- the developers are unresponsive. Just don’t do it.

It copied data from my clipboard on opening
Just opened the game and got the notification that it grabbed what was on my clipboard. Luckily, it was just commentary on an xkcd comic, but what the heck, guys. Not cool. -

Update: DO NOT SPEND MONEY ON THIS GAME!
It has been well over a year since this game has been updated, despite many people reporting issues and promises from the developer that the issues will be fixed. They do the same thing with some of their other games. Any report of a problem is met with a promise to fix it in the next version, but that version never comes. Beware of anything from this developer, and don’t waste your money on them. Original review: This game hasn’t been updated in 8 months as of the time of this review. Shortly after the current version was released, I reached out to let them know that claiming rewards from challenges doesn’t work. They responded fairly quickly and told me it would be fixed in the next version. I’ve stopped playing because I don’t want to lose the reward that I’ve earned, and have to spend a lot of time earning it again. I’m just wondering how long I have to wait... Will this game ever be updated again? Could we at least get this major bug fixed before you abandon it? This was my favorite idle game before this bug was introduced. Now it’s basically unplayable after you get through the missions. I’d happily give the game 5 stars if it gets fixed. -
Won’t leave loading screen
Used to LOVE playing this game. But since recent updates it won’t get off the loading screen for my phone.

Poor execution
Very fun game that I could get deep into, but there is one major flaw I notice. If you want to progress in the game, basically at all, it involves watching an ad every 2-3 minutes. Production of your factory will be, for example, 10k/sec. The add it offers you will give you 900million gold. These vary, but I have noticed that watching an ad will typically give you anywhere from 4hrs-24hrs of idle currency. Now... with rates like this it’s basically impossible to enjoy the game and progress at a decent rate without ads since the total cost to upgrade even the first skill is (I’m estimating from experience) probably around 200mill to max out. -
Traveled the time warp...
I traveled the time warp without understanding that meant I had to start the game all over again. Now I can’t even get myself to want to play again. Honestly who in their right minds would want to start a game all over again before they finish it, after having put so much time into it already? Ridiculous. What a shame I was really enjoying it. -
Takes wayyyyyy to long to progress. Over 2 weeks now havnt gotten anywhere. This game relys heavily very heavily on ads. Went back in time multiple times thru the portal see no difference in profit. Time boosters cancel your ad multiplyers and boosters only idle game that has this issue. If u dont constantly watch ads at the atm machine you wont progress.

Cute, but....
Cute game, but most of the time the ads don’t work. I was happy when I saw the bug fix for this, but it didn’t fix it. My ads still don’t play about 90% of the time so I can’t power up or get the stuff from the ATM. I check in on the game every once in a while and exit if there’s no ads. Cute time waster but not fully functional.

The time travel did NOTHING!!! Just made me start from the beginning. Give me another cook or something dont just make me start from the beginning. I have lost all interest in this game now. I was enjoying it until the time travel. I just dont understand the point. Discovering and cooking the new item already made me start over, then the time travel BS erased all that too!
