Moneyland vs Idle Bank Tycoon
Idle Bank Tycoon is the better choice for a more stable and less buggy idle game experience, despite its own issues with progression and occasional crashes.
Moneyland is plagued by severe bugs, progression blockers, and misleading 'no ads' purchases, making it frustrating for many users. Idle Bank Tycoon, while not perfect, offers a more consistent experience, though some users report slow progression and app loading issues.

- [R3] Moneyland 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???
- [R5] Moneyland 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!

- [R4] Moneyland 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.
- [R7] Moneyland 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
- [R1] Moneyland 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.
- [R6] Moneyland 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.
- [R13] Moneyland Garbage: I bought the $3 no ads thing and I’m still getting ads I want my money back.
- [R10] Moneyland 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.
- [R12] Moneyland Bug problem: It’s a fun game but they send a update out to fix the problem and it never does
- [R19] Moneyland Fun but filled with bugs: Everytime an update is released to fix bugs, it’s released with even more bugs. The game was fun when it worked, but now so many bugs make it not even worth playing.

- [R63] Idle Bank Tycoon Love the game, but it’s froze and won’t load now: I was playing the game for about 2 weeks with no issues. Then it wouldn’t load. Stuck on loading screen. I’ve tried reinstalling and all troubleshooting ideas. I’ve reached out on the FB page and they said email support. I did and still nothing back. I haven’t been able to play this game for almost a week now. I’ve deleted and reinstalled multiple
- [R66] Idle Bank Tycoon Froze: I re-installed, and it asked for age- which could be expected, but it got stuck loading the game, and completely froze. Even when i relaunched it, it was still stuck. I used to be pretty far, like bank 3.. 4..? (with the yacht..?), and sometimes did the Medieval event. I digress- Can this please get fixed..?
- [R67] Idle Bank Tycoon Wont load: Played for like 30 minutes and got to bank 2. Closed the app for a bit and now it just sits on the loading screen and can’t even play.
