  1. [R1] Hyper Evolution 2/5 · US Fine game itself, very inaccurate: The gameplay is okay I guess, but the timeline of the game is very weird. First of all, there’s compasses, crowns, and boats in the fish stage even though fish barely even had brains! According to the game, humans evolved from turtles, frogs, lizards, crocodiles, dinosaurs, woolly mammoths, smilodons, and scrat from ice age. The bonus items are also strange, pizz
  2. [R10] Hyper Evolution 2/5 · US Another evolution tree: The third evolution tree is just a copy of the first one even the secret stages is the same except the second evolution tree and after all that you just restart I thought the third one would be something like trading for humans such the first one is hunting the second one is farming.
  3. [R12] Hyper Evolution 3/5 · US Good game, bad dynamics: The game itself is fine to play. Like others I agree the ads can be a bit much but was willing to shell out a couple real ones to support the game. Here’s what I’ve noticed so far: • The difference between evolutionary stages is purely cosmetic, with little to no variation from timeline to timeline except for a new coat or skin color which doesn’t add to the variety. •
  4. [R23] Hyper Evolution 5/5 · US Super fun and addicting: This game is one of the best games I’ve ever played on my phone. When I’m bored I play this game you should get it and play it just like me
  5. [R6] Hyper Evolution 3/5 · US Fun But Age Restrictions: Fun Game But I Can Not Play It On My Phone Because If Age Restrictions So The Only Way I Can Play It Is That On My iPad
  6. [R20] Hyper Evolution 4/5 · US Very addicting, but needs a fix: I redownloaded this game again but I realized there’s a problem with the sound. When I turn the internet off to play this game (because I don’t want a ton of ads every level) the game has no sound. Even when I play it with WiFi it has no sound. It’s once in a blue moon when I get sound, and when I get sound, it doesn’t even last that long! Other than that, it’s ver
  7. [R36] Hyper Evolution 3/5 · US Still: Still no noises :/
  8. [R48] Hyper Evolution 3/5 · GB Its ok but a few errors: Its good fun game and i really like it but 2 main things: 1:this game used to be a 4+ then it changed to a 9+ but now its a 17+? now i cant play it please change this 2:please reduce amount of adds
  9. [R4] Hyper Evolution 1/5 · US Neat game too many ads: Ads every 15 seconds to make you pay for the game
  10. [R9] Hyper Evolution 3/5 · US Unfortunately riddled with ads: I am not an expert at understanding how necessary this many ads are for developers, but I do remember a time when mobile games had little ads or none at all. I have a hard time believing theres a real good reason for this many ads and an ever harder time playing the game because of it. If you have to watch ads for simply playing the game, not even for redeeming in-
  11. [R19] Hyper Evolution 1/5 · US Too many ads: This game is not good enough to have to sit through minute long ads between every 30 second level💀
  12. [R22] Hyper Evolution 1/5 · US Trash of a game!: I suspect the high reviews are fake! Trash of a game. Makes you watch ads every 10-15 seconds. To developers, don’t tell me to update my phone to fix this problem. There is no technical problem with the game. It your ads pushing through my throat ever 10 seconds, that’s the problem!
  13. [R15] Hyper Evolution 3/5 · US It gets boring after awhile: When I personally got this game which was a long time ago I was really addicting but there was a bit too many ads I don't know if it is still like that but I'm personally not asking for no admin asking for lowered amount of ads and I remember after awhile it go really boring after doing the same thing over and over again after I finished It like 10 times and I kept wai
  14. [R16] Hyper Evolution 1/5 · US This is for the Dev: Please make more purpose to using the coins, the only reason I be using them is for mythical creatures, just to earn more coins for the same creatures? Add some kind of attribute system for coins or something. Also I don’t know what the “ cost 6 🧬” when I have 30+ and doesn’t seem to be something I can click on to spend said DNA. If it’s a meant mechanic. Then it’s bugged. 1
  15. [R39] Hyper Evolution 3/5 · US Bare bones of a good game, but needs work: This was a fun leisure game to play on my commute to and from work. Simple and repetitive, with just enough mystery with future stages to keep me interested. However, I was disappointed to get to the final stage of the third evolution chain only to find out that it was exactly the same as the first evolution chain! It felt like a silly bait-and-switch tha
  16. [R52] Hyper Evolution 1/5 · US Ad Bomb after Ad Bomb: I understand free games will have ads. But this game takes it to the next level. Literally. You have an ad between every, single, evolution. And evolutions only take 5 or 6 seconds to progress. So imagine watching an ad every 5 or 6 seconds that you can’t skip. It ends up being more ads with small “commercial” breaks of game in between. Don’t waste your time.
  17. [R30] Hyper Evolution 3/5 · US Why the ads?: I paid $2.99 for no ads, the ads still popped up. On every level!!! There is no settings to restore purchase. Apart from this disappointment, the game is fun.
  18. [R42] Hyper Evolution 3/5 · US Paid and still get ads: Paid $2.99 to remove ads yet still get prompted for ads and at times as level up ads pop up regardless. Was intended as something fun for my child and don’t want random ads popping up if I’m not monitoring it. A bit disappointed to say the least since would have stuck with free version had known was going to still have to deal with ads.
  19. [R90] Card Evolution 3/5 · US Ads: I bought no ads and there’s still ads? What?
  20. [R118] Card Evolution 1/5 · US AD no matter what you pay: Paid for no ads yet still get ads, I’ll be reporting you to the proper authorities
  21. [R31] Hyper Evolution 1/5 · US Just why JUST WHY: So here is the thing just why this is very confusing first of all the evolution is messed up and the stage where you turn as a frog and eats flys just why not have the fly go first this is so confusing it’s such a good game that I wish I could rate it 100 stars but it’s only 5 if you could fix the evolution mistakes I’ll give this game a 5 star so for now it’s a one star. Thanks
  22. [R70] Card Evolution 1/5 · US Why isn’t it Pokémon?: In the ad, it says it’s Pokémon
  23. [R76] Card Evolution 1/5 · US Do not get: He did not say the right name for a Pokemon
  24. [R82] Card Evolution 1/5 · US Pokémon ripoff!: It’s like this game and negative one star I would! Cause it’s just a Pokémon rip off! And you have absolutely NO RIGHT to use the real Pokémon! The textures are terrible! I’m gonna delete this game right now! update: it hasn’t approved
  25. [R87] Card Evolution 3/5 · US The ad was a lie: In the ad, it said it was football cards and packs but when I download the game and check it out, it’s Pokémon and I like football packs more than Pokémon
