  2. [R5] Moneyland 5/5 · US Developers updates please: It’s a great game just need more updates I’ve completed the upgrades on the game just bored collecting money on the game and it’s nothing to spend ig on after everything is completed
  3. [R9] Moneyland 3/5 · US No Cash To Be Earned: After update, I have no way to physically earn cash to put toward buildings. Downloaded a few months ago and kept it waiting on a update, which finally came through. But I still can’t progress.

  9. [R4] Moneyland 1/5 · US Fraud: DO NOT PAY FOR NO ADS. You would think this would remove ads, it does not. You cant advance in the game without watching ads. Total scam and rip off.
  10. [R6] Moneyland 3/5 · US Too many adds: It’s good but there are far too many ads. It feels like it’s one ad after another and when you finally are able to close out of one ad another is right there waiting for you. I get it’s free but holy smokes please reduce the amount of ads.

  12. [R8] Moneyland 4/5 · US Payed for NO ADS: Hello, I want to start off by saying that I enjoy the game. However, I paid the $2.99 for no ads and it still shows me ads. I am not happy. Can someone please help me fix this and I will give it 5 stars?
  13. [R16] Moneyland 1/5 · US Why: I purchase the game for no ads yet I keep getting ads every time I use power ups like ok!? It should be ad free even when I wanna purchase a worker or use a power up! That was a waste of money really! And I got passed the 100,000,000 they fricken wanted us to collect, now I am stuck on some new map where I can’t collect money!!
  14. [R24] Moneyland 1/5 · US Constant crashing: This game constantly crashes and resets any money you’ve accumulated for buildings. I regret paying for no ads as you still need to watch ads to upgrade beyond certain levels
