1. [R1] Idle Dot Shooter! 2/5 · US Ads were misleading: I saw an advertisement for this game and thought the advertisement demo was enjoyable. I installed out of excitement of finding a fun game like this and installed expecting it to be mostly just like the advertisement. The goal was different, in the advertisements it wants you to pop big bubbles and those bubbles pop smaller ones along with a turret with small upgrades and a si
2. [R10] Idle Dot Shooter! 1/5 · US Do not play!: This game has a fun concept but is literally unplayable without watching ads. Basic functions of the game are only available through ad watching, it doesn’t explain the game but directs you to the micro transaction shop, and at multiple points it actually impedes the little progress you can make by just playing with ads! What an awful design, save your time and do not play.
3. [R68] Planet Smash 4/5 · US Has some problems with grinding even though the title has idle in the game!: Great game in the beginning, but the game get boring around space 3 or 4 I just hit top of the leader board and it’s obviously fake. The game doesn’t change at all after space 3 and is insanely boring. It should have more progression or more levels in a space. Puzzle pieces need more puzzles because at space 2 I completed
4. [R78] Planet Smash 3/5 · US Fun easy game to burn time: This is a easy fun game to eat time. The game mechanics are easy so game plays not to bad. It’s very easy to “beat”. The game continues after each time to finish a space level but then your money and levels reset. Eventually it becomes repetitive and boring.
5. [R76] Planet Smash 1/5 · US Ads are horrible: Too many ads and they last forever.
6. [R81] Planet Smash 3/5 · US Fix the ads: Pretty fun, repetitive grinding game that is satisfying and a good time pass when bored. Quite a few ads but you can close them rather quickly so they didn’t bother me that much. My only big concern is the occasional ad that has a second ad over the close ad button, this makes the game unplayable and you must reload the app to continue. Without this major issue it would have been 4 st
7. [R3] Idle Dot Shooter! 3/5 · US Good and bad: Slow and laggy, but otherwise awesome
8. [R70] Planet Smash 1/5 · US Don’t download.: The app functionally speaking is fine, the issue is its privacy, when disabling app refreshing and cellular data ability of this app, it ignores all phone settings and remains connected to cellular data. There’s no real way to avoid the app ingesting your data, and throwing adds at your face
9. [R75] Planet Smash 3/5 · US Defective game: I purchased the remove all ads options and it didn’t work. It says I purchased it but the adds are still running. Forced ads not cool. This game has a lot of potential but this is a huge let down.
10. [R82] Planet Smash 1/5 · US Too many ads: The options in most games that say you can get a multiplier by watching an add except it's mandatory, you can't leave or skip the add. Plays an ad every 30 seconds to minute unrelated to the forced claim prize by watching ads.
11. [R85] Planet Smash 1/5 · US Too many ads: Way too many ads and the offline rewards quickly stop being able to be upgraded
12. [R58] Idle Dot Shooter! 1/5 · US Found this game in a offer wall but i didn’t get my rewards: Just as the title says, I didn’t receive my rewards for a certain game and the game developer scammed me for my time, the offer wall said to reach level 25, i reach level 25 and didn’t get any rewards, so i thought they meant galaxy 25, but when i reached it i still didn’t get any of my rewards, I reached galaxy 26 and i am at Lvl.388, d
13. [R66] Planet Smash 3/5 · US Too many adds!: Fun game, but the adds are overbearing.
