1. [R1] Tiny Tower 2/5 · US I've been playing for years...: I just updated this game from whatever the last update for iPadOS 14 was, this game is riddled with ads now. I went to bed and the price for anew floor went from 420K to 682k, I don't know who bought out nimblebit to stay relevant but I can say that I only played this latest release for all of 1 minute because of this.
2. [R4] Tiny Tower 2/5 · US Too many balloon guys/ad opportunities.: I remembered playing this game years ago so I was so excited when I found it again on the App Store. It’s still a fairly fun game, but I uninstalled it because of all the ads. You’re almost constantly bombarded with guys on balloons floating from top to bottom of your screen. Sometimes it’s two at once. I’m not even kidding, it’s about 30 seconds or less af
3. [R7] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US ADS DONT HAVE EXIT BUTTONS: dont watch any ads for rewards they never let you leave the ad and dont give you your reward most of the time 🤦
4. [R9] Tiny Tower 3/5 · US Ads ads ads!: I love this game, have played it on and off for many years, love how easy they’ve made it to get certain currencies, but HOLY ADS. You don’t NEED to watch them, but when you decide to, they’re EVERYWHERE. They aren’t even the easy ones that you just have to watch, I think some of them require interaction in order to close, and them some of them have multiple ‘x’ buttons you have to w
5. [R3] Tiny Tower 3/5 · US Great for a while then dies: Once you max out everything there’s nothing left to do but farm tickets. Please add more content!
6. [R10] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US We need more floors: I’ve been playing for years and really love the game but for the love of god, ADD MORE FLOORS instead of boring events.
7. [R21] Tiny Tower 3/5 · GB Ok but updates really??: I’ve played this game 2700 days consecutively and I’m now getting fed up with the lack of tower floors up dates. All the weekly games being added for spins, bucks, or whatever are just money grabs. Why can’t you do the floor updates like the games been saying for almost a year???? Apparently I’ve now maxed the floors at 31 of each type, so the extra bitizens I’ve got liv
8. [R32] Tiny Tower 5/5 · US more floors pleaseeeee: please make more of each floor of each type!! i beg
9. [R15] Tiny Tower 3/5 · GB Decent game, awful moneygrabbing: This game is pretty good, but not as good as the developers seem to think it is. £9 for a monthly gold pass which does almost nothing of notable value is absurd, as is the fact that, to claim the free daily offers (and to remove the [1] notification on-screen), one must scroll to almost the very bottom of a shop so extensively filled with bad deals that it takes l
10. [R16] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US Money grab: The game is constantly trying to sell you something I miss the old tiny tower it was fun but this game just wants your money. 5 minutes into the game and so many pop ups show up trying to sell me something or trying to make me watch an ad. If you click one thing there is a pop up trying to see you something constantly.
11. [R18] Tiny Tower 3/5 · GB Please make a classic version: I love this game so much. But I would like to see a classic version because I quite like the slower pace of the old version and there I miss how there used to be just coins and bucks, instead of all these new currencies.
12. [R12] Tiny Tower 3/5 · US Please fix the dice roll: Honestly, I just had a go at the dice roll game, more like 9-12 or something like that, and I got stuck between this spot where if I got a one, I’d be sent back a spot to my previous reward, and if I got a 6, I’d get sent back to that previous one as well, I got nothing but 1’s & 6’s in every. single. try. Dear tiny tower, please fix this extremely annoying issue.
13. [R13] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US Waste: I HAVENT HAD ANY EVENTS IN MONTHS ALTHOUGH THEY KEEP ADVERTISING IT. IM NOT RECEIVING THE PARACHUTE GUY EITHER. IM SO ANNOYED. I ALWAYS UPDATE THE APP AND STILL NOTHING!
14. [R22] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US Elevator levels: You run the elevator, if the level is too high the resident doesn’t leave. It’s been a problem for months. Until they fix this problem don’t waste your time.
15. [R19] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US Penalty for Time Travel is too Harsh: I understand want to discourage players from time traveling but the way Tiny Tower does it is awful and makes you quit the game all together. Inventory cleared out, bitizens disappear, etc. and it’s not like you get them back after a while. They’re gone for good. This is so frustrating as I had been playing this game for what seemed like hours a day for MO
16. [R49] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US Lost game: I swapped from iphone14 to iPhone17 and everything swapped over, great. The event data from Christmas didn’t swap over so I googled and people said to delete and redownload game. I did that and I lost everything. Almost 800+ floors, over $1T in gold, my legendary bitizens and all floors were almost all maxed out. This is YEARS worth of stuff that’s gone because I was trying to make sur
17. [R28] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US Virus?: It installed a extension on my browser without permission thank god i didnt open it deleted it immediately now i have a puzzle peice on my safari :((((
18. [R35] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US now even you guys are greedy: i remember when this game was fun. now they want to install a browser extension. GREED!
19. [R37] Tiny Tower 1/5 · US Adds Safari Extension: This app add an extremely questionable safari extension. Unless you have no concerns about your privacy then go for it. It’s an instant DELETE for me!
20. [R53] Tower Craft 3D 3/5 · US Weird Thing: It's a cool game but it keeps going even after you leave the game which I don't like... I made so much progress that I wasn't there for and I'm not a fan of that, I was floor 27 when I left and I came back on 437 or something. I hope you guys can change that to where it doesn't do that or maybe make it a toggle feature, cause I'm not a fan with making but loads of progress when I'm no
21. [R54] Tower Craft 3D 2/5 · US Ads: Ads are to repetitive makes it not relaxing.
22. [R55] Tower Craft 3D 5/5 · US William: This game is so fun. I recommend it. Your kids would have so much fun on it. It’s a building game and you build like a bunch. All you have to do is hold your finger down on the screen and you build and you get to see a lot of new material materials.
23. [R56] Tower Craft 3D 3/5 · US Too many ads: Their is way too many ads every time you do the click fast thing ad
24. [R65] Perfect Tower 1/5 · US still ads??: I loved this game at first, so i bought the no ads. after 3 days there are still ads! $4 wasted.
25. [R67] Perfect Tower 3/5 · US Ads: The ads make it unplayable. Too bad, so much potential
26. [R68] Perfect Tower 1/5 · US Add: Never had more adds in one game if you lose add if you win add
27. [R69] Perfect Tower 4/5 · US I’m the #1 high score: This game is way too addicting. Do NOT download it if you’re trying to stay off your phone this is 100% the most addictive game I’ve ever played. So much so that I got over 10000 as my highest score
28. [R80] The Tower 5/5 · US This game is very fun and addicting: the Discord is very helpful. They are the reason I have even progressed and the game is very fun and once you figure out all the mechanics like the cards and damage, it gets very easy and fun fast
29. [R82] The Tower 1/5 · US Add: It’s a great game. It would get 5 stars if it weren’t for the ads. Get a different ad company. Your game is based on ads. Ads that go on for minutes, have small x’s so every time you hit in the wrong spot it opens the web browser, have x’s you can’t see so you have to hit all over the screen to find it. Yeah, they’re just phenomenal.
30. [R83] The Tower 5/5 · US This game: This game is the most interesting and most grinding game I’ve ever played it doesn’t have random ads that pop up and the most grinding it not to good and not to bad it will probably get better the more updates it will get but only time will tell.
31. [R84] The Tower 3/5 · US Do NOT Watch Ads: I don’t normally write reviews for games, but the scam for how they run ads was enough to really set me off. The game is perfectly fine, pretty fun, standard tower defense game. But the ads are HORRIBLE. You sit through the whole 30 sec - 1 min ads for a reward of 5 measly gems… and then there’s NO button to close the ad. You’re just stuck sitting there looking at the link to the
32. [R93] Merge Clash 1/5 · US Mediocre at best: This game has some really fun aspects and a lot of really poorly programmed parts. There are bosses that are supposedly “random” like the dragon head boss. It’s suppose to randomly destroy one of your towers, it’s not random at all. EVERY SIMGLE TIME it attacks it destroys your highest ranked tower or strongest tower and works its way down. Once it destroys your top towers/highes
33. [R95] Merge Clash 3/5 · US It’s ok, not great: The game is only ok to play if you’ve got nothing else to play. Most of the legendary cards are too gimmicky to be of any real use, and the ones that are useful are almost impossible to level up without coining. Speaking of: after an entire month you get a legendary card. Too bad after waiting all of that time it’s a duplicate (always); and the worst part is that it doesn’t
34. [R96] Merge Clash 1/5 · US Don’t bother: Another pay 2 win tower defense game. Except unlike other similar games, this POS brings nothing new, and severely lacks what other games have. No clans, so no clan events or clan battles. Their “special event” is a waste of time…horrible “mirror mode” where the devs were apparently drunk while creating the 5 or so teams with no synergy “randomly” chosen (but expect to play the same
35. [R98] Merge Clash 3/5 · US Decent game: Too many tower imbalances! It’s fun and engaging but I keep losing to lower tier towers when I’m using high tiers. Like how the heck am I going to compete against lower towers it’s poposterous
36. [R107] Idle Dot Shooter! 2/5 · US Ads were misleading: I saw an advertisement for this game and thought the advertisement demo was enjoyable. I installed out of excitement of finding a fun game like this and installed expecting it to be mostly just like the advertisement. The goal was different, in the advertisements it wants you to pop big bubbles and those bubbles pop smaller ones along with a turret with small upgrades and a si
37. [R112] Idle Dot Shooter! 3/5 · US Lies: I say this game in a add and it looked cool but when I downloaded it it was nothing like th add game devs fix this
38. [R113] Idle Dot Shooter! 1/5 · US Game sucks don’t listen to the reviews: First of all, the game’s barely like the ad, second there’s like 500 ads every 30 seconds and if you wanna progress to the next level? You gotta watch an ad ontop of the amount of money needed. Or you can save up triple the price just to skip the ad, don’t get this game, please
39. [R115] Idle Dot Shooter! 3/5 · US Idle dot shooter: It’s good to play with out internet make more!!! <3
40. [R6] Tiny Tower 3/5 · US Played for years. Not as fun as when it started.: This is was a fun game. When I started it was possible to advance without spending a lot of money. Now there are special events that offer little reward or cost a lot to succeed. The best add on is now about $15. So plan to spend that much to play and enjoy. I’m going to stop playing because I have achieved what I want and the special events
41. [R29] Tiny Tower 4/5 · US A pleasant waste of time: A game that never really ends, but is a nice diversion ever now and then. If you’re patient, you shouldn’t have to buy anything.
42. [R24] Tiny Tower 3/5 · GB Not keen on UI tweak: Been playing for many years and had a lot of fun but I’m not at all keen on the UI tweak to reduce all the left hand side boxes. Far better to just not run so many challenges simultaneously, it’s making the game too demanding and unwieldy. The solution *isn’t* to add extra clicks to access every option.
43. [R27] Tiny Tower 3/5 · GB Very cluttered UI after update: Every update seems to add another element to the UI. There are six widgets up the elevator shaft now, none of which I use. It’s very cluttered, without much value being added to the actual gameplay. Perhaps all these extras could be put in a different menu to make it less overwhelming to look at? I really enjoy the fundamentals of this game, I’ve played it for ye
