Latest update · v41.95

What the developer says changed (the verdict above weighs this against what reviewers report):

Fixes an issue for players unable to download event content.

Recurring themes

Ads & Monetization negative
Many users report an overwhelming number of ads, often unskippable and appearing every few seconds, making the game nearly unplayable. There are also frequent pop-ups for in-app purchases and promotions. This contradicts the developer's update notes which did not address ad frequency.R5R6R13R21
In-App Purchases & Support negative
A significant number of users report making in-app purchases (e.g., coins, tickets, VIP membership) but not receiving the purchased items. Attempts to contact customer support or use the in-app reporting system for these issues often go unanswered, leading to feelings of being scammed.R4R10R18R69
Removed Features & Coin Economy negative
Players are disappointed that the ability to sell collected prizes for coins has been removed. This, combined with slow coin regeneration and rigged 'free coin' offers, makes it difficult to play without spending money, changing the game from its original, more generous state.R5R46R65R67
Bugs & Technical Issues negative
Users report various bugs, including coins not regenerating past a certain level, the Fortune Wheel not working, special events failing to load, and the game crashing or getting stuck on a loading screen. The developer's notes mention fixing an issue with event content, but users still report event-related problems.R4R7R19R30
Enjoyment & Nostalgia positive
Despite the issues, many users still find the core gameplay relaxing, fun, and addictive. The game evokes nostalgia for childhood arcade experiences, and some appreciate it as a simple time-waster.R1R3R8R9

Who it's for

This game is for users who enjoy simple, arcade-style coin pusher games and are looking for a casual way to pass the time, especially if they have nostalgic feelings for the genre R8R15R55. It is NOT for users who are easily frustrated by frequent, unskippable ads, expect reliable in-app purchases, or prefer games that don't push aggressive monetization R5R6R10R13.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew heavily negative, particularly concerning ads and in-app purchase issues. While there are still positive reviews, they often praise the core gameplay or nostalgia without addressing the recent monetization changes. The high lifetime rating likely reflects the game's state before these recent updates.

  3. [R15] 5/5 · GB Great game: Love playing this it’s like being back at the seaside
  4. [R55] 5/5 · GB Takes me back to childhood days: I love playing this game feel like I’m standing in Brighton amusement arcade overlooking the sea on the pier playing this game
  5. [R29] 5/5 · GB Addicted Dozerer: Best free game by miles. Like the real thing only free :) Great playability and difficult to put down once you start. Running out of coins is a good thing - it means you can get some sleep!!!
  6. [R40] 5/5 · GB Coin dozer: Totally addictive
  7. [R63] 5/5 · GB Addictive: Good game
  8. [R94] 5/5 · GB Great Game: Great way to unwind when you have a few minutes to spare.
  9. [R8] 5/5 · GB Love: I used to play this ad a kid it brings back so many memories
  10. [R121] 3/5 · CA Always loved, now unsure: Hello, I’ve always loved a game like this. It reminds me of the arcade game of my youth. I’ve often played till all the prizes are earned and then reinstalled to do it again. And I always felt Coin Dozer had some positive things, much more than other games. I used to play Candy Crush all the time. I would spin the wheel, hoping for the jackpot. But in the 5 years I played
  11. [R65] 1/5 · GB Used to play this game 24/7: I thought I’d come back onto this game after ages of not playing. Only to find out it’s not the game it used to be. I swear it used to only be 30 seconds per coin regeneration although I’m not 100% sure. But I definitely know you could sell prizes for coins and now I can’t do that, means I can’t play the app much at all as I’m not spending money on coins. Gutted.
  12. [R5] 1/5 · GB Full of ads minimal reward: From the moment you install this app you are bombarded with advertisement of which you cannot escape so you are forced to watch a 1 minute ad then they force you to try the mini game then you have to wait until you can escape that screen all for the most pathetic reward. They used to allow you to sell the prizes you collected with your time and effort for dozer coins bu
  13. [R6] 1/5 · GB Bloody impossible to play: This game is impossible to play due to the constant pop ups to watch other games and trying to get you to spend. I’ve had the game an hour before having to delete it due to frustration. Never again!
  14. [R13] 1/5 · GB Ads: Constant ads to the point it’s borderline unplayable Open the app, get an ad, get kicked off the app Can’t enjoy any part of the actual game because it’s behind a paywall
  15. [R21] 1/5 · GB Adverts: For a game that should be so simple, it’s overrun with so many ads. I found that even if you leave your phone for 30 seconds, it plays a 90 second ad. I’d be happy to pay for an ad-free version. But, this is literally soul draining, it’s just an ad watching app. Done with it, don’t give a penny to them.
  16. [R4] 1/5 · GB Love the game but they never fix issues are respond to you: Great game when it works, few too many long ads, but whatever. But the worst thing is I have an issue where my coins arent regenerating, and I have reported it 4times. I NEVER get a response or a fix. Have reinstalled, updated etc,
  17. [R10] 1/5 · GB Poor service: On two occasions I’ve made in-app purchases and received nothing in return. Never get any response to in-app reporting system. Poor show.
  18. [R18] 1/5 · GB What I think: I bought some coins for 4 pound 99 and I didn’t get the coins I want a refund
  19. [R69] 1/5 · GB Taken money: Paid £0.89 for extra 50 coins you e taken the money but I’ve not received my coins the game is a scam I enjoyed the game up till no very disappointed
  20. [R46] 3/5 · GB Not the same: I used to love this game - a while ago you could sell prizes for coins. I’m disappointed you can’t do that anymore but I will still probably keep playing!
  21. [R67] 1/5 · GB Used to be better: Why have you stopped players from being able to sell the prizes they collect for coins? What’s the point of accumulating so many prizes? Is it just to get us to spend more money per chance???
  22. [R54] 1/5 · GB Needs work..: Riddled with ads to a point it’s obsessive and once I decided to do a survey for quests I got nothing in return.
  23. [R118] 3/5 · CA Good game: It’s a fun/ good game to play but don’t waste your time on free coin activities! They are rigged, you will never win! The only ones you get free coins are the cheap ones that you watch a video.
  24. [R145] 1/5 · CA DONT PRESS FREE COIN OFFERS: I have downloaded the games and done the quizzes that say to give you “free coins” or “free dozer dollars” but they do not actually give you the free coins when you complete the task they give you. i have downloaded multiple apps AND fully completed the quizzes which only took up space on my phone and didnt give me anything in return. this game is such a waste of time
  25. [R153] 3/5 · AU Not happy: Downloaded and played another game to earn free gems, completed challenge and no free gems !
  26. [R7] 4/5 · GB It’s alright!: So you get NO COINS after level 30 because there is like a fake barrier between the dropping hole, but it’s a good game when it isn’t being not demure but it does slayyyyyy when I get the good prizes, definitely recommend for those who have gaming rage!!!! Thanks a lot, but I need those coins 😂🤣😊😈
  27. [R19] 1/5 · GB Frustrated: Love the game but recently I have not been able to get free spins on the game can you please sort it out thanks
  28. [R30] 1/5 · GB Doesn’t work: Tried to get this game, front page just says “loading” but it won’t actually load or open. Deleted it now , there are easier games to get.
  29. [R117] 1/5 · CA No special events come up when they say they are!: The special events aren’t coming up on the app. Does anyone else have this problem?
  30. [R140] 3/5 · CA Annoying sometimes: 2 missing stars because 1. Events and daily objectives are unrealistic. There is no way i can collect 12000 event coins in 10 days, even if i play everyday. Unless i pay for this greed, no wag i can complete it. Also, there is a daily objective like opening 30 chests. Do you know how long it takes? Idk, but it costs 300 keys at least, without the popping balloons option. I'm at
  31. [R3] 5/5 · GB Coin dozer😄😄😄😄😄⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: It’s the best thing ever I love it it’s one of the best things ever 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😃😃😃😃😃😀😃😀😀 merry Christmas
  32. [R9] 5/5 · GB Best game ever!!!: Super fun
  33. [R72] 1/5 · GB Don’t spend any money: Took my money twice for membership and didn’t give me anything in return, disgusting. Good game to play for free but if your wanting to spend some money go elsewhere as this app is a con!
