1. [R1] Avakin Life 1/5 · US awful: this game is so money hungry, too many bugs, and not much diversity in animations, furniture functions, etc. been playing for 10 years and was more disappointed than ever when i logged in for the first time in forever, nostalgic game, but terrible development:/
2. [R3] Avakin Life 3/5 · US Have to pay: I have always enjoyed Avakin life the interactive activity of the game is so much fun! I love this app I have played for 8 years almost now! You have to pay for almost everything
3. [R67] Highrise 1/5 · US Money Scheme - bad support: I previously reviewed this game saying things I enjoyed about it and what I did. After 7 years of being a player I can tell you that the admin, owners, whoever do not value you as a player, customer or consumer. They do not care how much money you spent, or your experience as a user. You are another one of the thousands playing to them. Support will not go out of th
4. [R102] Highrise 3/5 · US Very expensive: This is a great fun game however it’s also a very money hungry game. Meaning it’s very expensive To play in a sense.
5. [R6] Avakin Life 3/5 · US After the update, I have a problem: I cannot interact with items. An error message appears, recommending to try again later, but that does not help, and the problem remains unresolved. · translated
6. [R27] Avakin Life 3/5 · US Constant glitches: This game always has some kind of glitch the devs dont care. Dont spend a dime on this game.
7. [R63] Highrise 3/5 · US love this game but: i love this game so much but MAN yall need to FIX THE SERVERS!!!!!! the connection sucks and my wifi is amazing, my data is amazing, it’s yalls APP you need to fix !!! i’ve been trying to log on for the past 10 minutes and it’s telling me an error.

8. [R84] Highrise 3/5 · US App is now broken: I’ve been a Highrise player since its early days. I love this game and still want to but the producers of this game are making go downhill faster than any of us can blank. As of late, with each update, I get kicked more and more. Now I can’t even get on the app on my phone or on Steam. Haven’t been able to for days. I’ve had multiple issues over the past couple of years, but it
9. [R13] Avakin Life 1/5 · US Won’t load in: It says it’s unavailable and I have a new iPhone 17e this is bs
10. [R82] Highrise 1/5 · US FULL OF BUGS: How many updates this game needs before fixing the already existing bugs?
11. [R22] Avakin Life 2/5 · US Used to be Great: Avakin Life once was an AMAZING game. In the last few years, it’s turned into a primarily profit focused game. As a player of 12 years now, it’s very sad to see. We used to look forward to holidays such as Halloween, Christmas, even the popular Black Friday sales with very deep discounts. Those are no longer. Events and new items are just recycled & recolored repeat items. Avakin
12. [R64] Highrise 1/5 · US Terrible app: Terrible app filled with terrible people whoever owns it is money hungry. They constantly delete bad reviews and write fake reviews. Half of the five star reviews are fake. If you don’t spend money on this game, no one will talk to you. You won’t have any sort of social interaction you can’t event if you don’t spend money you won’t be on top. Everything that comes out as a account bo
13. [R105] Highrise 3/5 · US Money grab now?: I’ve had this game for a few years now, and Idk if I enjoy it anymore, I’ve come to the realization that this game is very money hungry. Your chances of winning the higher rarity items in the grabs are so slim that you need to blow about 40k-60k plus of gold to be able to truly win anything. I hate having to spin spin and spin to keep getting the same 10items over and over just t
14. [R10] Avakin Life 1/5 · US Developer ignorance: Support does not help at all, they ignore you. · translated
15. [R12] Avakin Life 3/5 · US Mystery box is gone: The game is good, but my mystery box disappeared. I wrote to support but they did not answer me. I deleted the game and downloaded it again, but I still do not have it. · translated
16. [R103] Highrise 1/5 · US Poor Staff poor management: Your support staff takes week’s to even get back to ticket’s at least hire people who are actually wanting to do the work! “3 days” what a lie. Not to mention the free player base isn’t getting treated good as well in praying on this games downfall.
