  2. [R19] Sushi Roll 3D 1/5 · GB Looks great om the ads but…: So I downloaded this game after I saw the ad. And I was really disappointed nothing looked the same! You don’t only do sushi but rice as well? There are ads as well which are really annoying.would not recommend. I think you need to fix this game and the ad.
  3. [R25] Sushi Roll 3D 1/5 · GB I agree with Pony_Nuts: This game is called Sushi Roll 3D SO MAYBE MAKE IT ABOUT SUSHI!?!?!?!? This game is making you prepare salads and noodles and it’s really really boring. I thought I would be preparing cool sushi with different ingredients and different fish because my favourite food is sushi but now it starts making me do noodles and salads please create and make it about sushi, not salads
  4. [R26] Sushi Roll 3D 4/5 · GB Good but one flaw: The game is overall pretty good and addicting but for me the upgrade screen is bugged :3
  5. [R2] Sushi Roll 3D 5/5 · GB it has too much adverts: Very good to much adverts
  6. [R3] Sushi Roll 3D 3/5 · GB 🤔🤔: It’s a fun game I used to play it all the time in 2019 but the ads are ridiculous

  8. [R9] Sushi Roll 3D 3/5 · GB Actually fun: However NEEDS TO REMOVE THE EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF ADDS!
  9. [R6] Sushi Roll 3D 3/5 · GB IT TRACKS YOU: Omg I came on here to do a nice review and then I saw it tracks you!! Nahhhh that’s messed up!! Don’t download this anyway it’s an alright game but there are wayyyyyyy too many ads and it gets boring. Also there are some animations of clowns and that can be bad for younger users. Also, it says that you can eat gasoline, DO NOT EAT GASOLINE. To the developers, please don’t track pe
  10. [R36] Sushi Roll 3D 2/5 · GB Lots of adds: So whenever l just had a add and l press the x button it just comes up as another add and to track you down no thanks like my cousins will press except for everything like Roblox this game and it freaks me out so please stop it and l know l can’t except it because all of my games say can we track you blablabla 2 stars this game is so bad like krikets do you want a kid to eat krikets
  11. [R37] Sushi Roll 3D 4/5 · GB Game👾👾👾: I think this game is fun and all I love food so anything with food I love but I wish there were more sushi you can make or different kinds of food because there is only like 3m offering types you can make.Also this game is a bit glitchy when you do things even if you have amazing Wi-Fi.I would download this game but it needs to be updated a bit.👍🏻👍🏻👌🏻👌🏻
  12. [R22] Sushi Roll 3D 1/5 · GB Adds so many: Three are so many adds after every game is add after add so do not go on the game j thought it would be fun but acally it is so boring
  13. [R51] Cooking Diary® Restaurant Game 1/5 · GB Gems?!: From the bakery on you barely get any gems, yet every upgrade costs a lot of gems, so I can still play the levels but can’t upgrade anything ever? That kinda screams money grab to me. The game is nearly a copy and paste from similar games so it’s not worth paying for at all. All these cooking games are money grabs. I’ll find something else to play.
  14. [R53] Cooking Diary® Restaurant Game 3/5 · GB Fun until it’s not: Been playing for a few weeks and really enjoyed it but you get to a point where it’s impossible to progress without paying - undowloading
  15. [R54] Cooking Diary® Restaurant Game 1/5 · GB Worst update: I love this game, spent so many hours on it. But the latest update is awful. You now can’t pass levels above 80 unless you buy the restaurant decor. Having to spend gems on decor is so pointless and I’m not playing this game any more now I can’t keep playing a restaurant to build up my gems! Once you reach level 80, you don’t win enough money unless you purchase the restaurant decor.
  16. [R63] Cooking Diary® Restaurant Game 2/5 · GB Developers always spoil the game with greed: Played this game years ago when it first came out, it was brilliant. I then had phone issues as well as personal issues, & after religiously playing for a few years, the game just got put to the wayside. I decided to download it again this past week.. wow. Ruby’s are horrendously expensive, & incredibly hard to even get in the game (2 Ruby’s will get yo

  18. [R41] Sushi Roll 3D 5/5 · GB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!: This is so fun. I’ve downloaded it for an hour and I can’t get over it. Did I mention that it was fun though? I am a grown woman. This game is amazing and so calming. What more could you possibly want?
  19. [R75] Cooking Diary® Restaurant Game 5/5 · GB Cool master: This game is way to addictive. And lots of fun
