  1. [R2] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 4/5 · US i’m lowk only doing this for the gem things: i downloaded this app for another app that pays you to play (i know they don’t all work but idk im bored and want money) the game is very boring at first, but if you play it for like 15 mins its lowk addictive kinda.
  2. [R10] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 2/5 · US Ok game but too repetitive: The game is ok but needs a way to add items without the repetition over and over and over. Also stop charging coins just to see talking on the screen that Boone reads. Again, boring and repetitive.
  3. [R14] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 5/5 · US Super fun: A nice way to pass the time, out of all the merge games this one is the best
  4. [R15] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 3/5 · US I like the game: I actually really like the game the graphics I like the events and I like that the quantity that the gyms come in is plentiful however, energy I feel is scarce and the items that they want you to make take excessive energy. You’ll be lucky to open your app and get maybe 1 to 2 orders completed. I feel like the cards never complete even when you spend money but it’s fun to kill tim
  5. [R3] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 3/5 · US Okay: I like the monotony of the game, but the annoying pop up adds for in-game purchases is ridiculous.
  6. [R6] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 3/5 · US Disappointed: In order to play and get far you have to pay. Not a fan when you have to buy everything to move along. I wouldn’t download unless you want to spend a lot.
  7. [R12] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 3/5 · US Fun but money grabbing: Fun to play but you run out of energy within a couple of minutes and the pop ups for you to pay for energy start non stop. I’ve already spent money and got very little for my $$.
  8. [R13] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 1/5 · US Slow: You get maybe 5-10 minutes of gameplay at most before you completely run out of lives and can’t do anything for two hours… it’s like this game doesn’t want me to play it.
  9. [R4] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 1/5 · US Rarely loads: It’s a very glitchy app. It opens maybe once every other day, meanwhile any other app I have works fine.
  10. [R7] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 1/5 · US They don’t pay out to fetch: They did not report that I reached a higher level for fetch points and didn’t pay out
  11. [R19] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 1/5 · US Do better: There are only 2 things that I absolutely can’t stand. When a game forces you to do exactly what it wants as some sort of idiotic “tutorial,” and when there is no possible way to turn off the volume of the game. Why the hell are you assaulting my ears without giving me a way out this is disgusting and horrible
  12. [R24] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 3/5 · US Not Working: I’ve been playing this game for a while and I love it. But for the past two days, the app won’t load. 😟. I deleted it and reinstalled it but that didn’t help.
  13. [R1] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 2/5 · US U: This game sucks
  14. [R5] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 5/5 · US Love this Game: Love this Game
  15. [R32] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 4/5 · US Love it not the Pop ups: Today I had to x out of 10 pop up ads before I could play. And then I had to c out of 4 more! It’s daily!! I want to give this 5 stars however I can’t.
  16. [R33] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 3/5 · US Quite fun: This game is lwk addicting all I do all day n everyday is merge but I hate how the ads keep constantly popping up when I’m in the middle of merging
  17. [R64] My Perfect Hotel 1/5 · US I bought removing ads but still getting ads and can't get past weekly contest page: App is so glitchy. I can't even play the game because when I open the app it straight takes me to "weekly contest" page and I can't click on anything. It's frozen. I restarted the app and same thing happens each time. I can't even play the game and I spent actual money on this. Please fix the bug.
  18. [R82] My Perfect Hotel 1/5 · US Lots of ADS: Watch ads for double the resources, even though you brought the no ads. It’s like I am watching ads for everything. Watch the ads game lol. Seriously, do no spend your money. This is the watch ads game.
  19. [R90] My Perfect Hotel 3/5 · US Fun Game but no “ad-free” version really: I absolutely love playing this game. So much so that I paid for the “ad-free” version. The thing is, I end up having to watch a ton of ads anyway in order to advance in the game. I wish when they said “ad-free” they really meant it.
  20. [R94] My Perfect Hotel 2/5 · US Too many ads: This is a fun time killer game. I get the watch an ad because you are getting money. The problem now is the ads just pop up in the middle of game play every couple of minutes. Before the developer responds no this game is not worth $9.99 and I would keep playing if the ads were just for free stuff.
  21. [R61] My Perfect Hotel 1/5 · US Don’t waste your time..besides $$: Why time? Delete it and all progress gone. There’s no signing in- button is there but doesnt do anything. I reported this over 3 years ago! You would think with all the brain rot additional ads they updated since then they would not only fix that but also the glitch of not hearing music anymore after any ad played to get stuff. CAN YOU IMAGINE PLAYING A GAME IN S
  22. [R22] Merge Hotel Empire－Design Game 1/5 · US Pay to win scam!: Starts off giving good energy and okay to start. Then comes tomorrow you get no energy but using gems to buy. You need to buy all the time to even play. I’ve already spent money for a game that I’m not even fully invested in. No thanks! Deleting the game after this review.
