  1. [R3] Moneyland 3/5 · US Help!!!: I’m early on in the game, and I’ve u locked all buildings on my level. However, it isn’t pushing me through to a new map. Is this a glitch? Or did i beat the game? Or???
  2. [R5] Moneyland 4/5 · US It’s ok: Once I got so far there was no option for me to expand or anything it said good job you completed this area but it didn’t move me to a newer area. Do you know why this would happen? Is there like something that happened because I’m not sure what to do so I uninstalled because I couldn’t do anything else. Tell me if update please!
  3. [R8] Moneyland 5/5 · US Get it: If you are tycoon person you will enjoy this
  4. [R10] Moneyland 2/5 · US Fix please: I love this game but even after 2-3 updates claiming to fix where players are stuck on a level, I’m still stuck. Everything’s been unlocked and expanded and it won’t let me move on.
  5. [R1] Moneyland 1/5 · US Paying for “No Ads” doesn’t really mean No Ads: The game would be perfect 5 stars, but when you pay $2.99 for “No Ads”, it doesn’t stop you having to watch a 30-60 second ad for every single upgrade (which you encounter AT LEAST once a minute) - it just removes the ad bar from the bottom. Very misleading, and a huge waste of money.
  6. [R4] Moneyland 1/5 · US Lag and Adds: The game is a great game and $3 isn’t to bad. However your basically forced to pay it due to a insane amount of adds.. literally every other second along with after each add they ram the whole $2.99 to go free ad in your face. You can’t even begin to enjoy to try the game without them forcing this on you followed by lag and crashing throughout the game.
  7. [R6] Moneyland 3/5 · US Push ads really: It would be five but YOU HAVE PUSH ADS TAKE IT OFF WHEN SOMEONE BUYS NO ADS. like are y’all free,will y’all even respond to this comment I wonder. But I’m your next up take it off. I paid for no ads for a reason please.
  8. [R13] Moneyland 1/5 · US Garbage: I bought the $3 no ads thing and I’m still getting ads I want my money back.
  9. [R7] Moneyland 1/5 · US Glitched: A couple updates ago, there was a certain amount of the city you could unlock feasibly, and the next area unlock costed 100 Million to unlock, well I got 5 million out of the 100 million, when they updated the game and reset my area progress, my ability to get to the next area is now locked because I have 4,895,000/300,000 and it can’t go any further than that. Now I’m stuck and the rese
