Community Insight:
What happened to the upgrading screws/Bolts, we for one dont really see any in the levels anymore.
Awsome graphics so fun amd satisfying really helps our adhd.
Ive encountered a issue the containers that you get factory parts from say they are unlocked all 6 and even closing the app and opening it again resets the containers but their empty and cant get new ones at 99% complete Ive got 1/4 of the planet clean for awhile and cant advance also the processing time after delivering the junk to its recycle planet is way to long Im afraid like other games Im going to get bored with it long before any updates come through.
This game is amazing and we love it but there needs to be less adds.
Please fix the clean our planet hurry up and update this game.
We really wanted to give this game a 5 star but Im a little upset. We bought the game and right after that it says new levels coming! Its been like that for too long. Please hurry.
From reading the reviews it looks like we NEED new stuff along with some bug fixes.
We really enjoy playing this game but after 1/4 of the works Is cleaned the freight containers you buy or get for watching an ad are all empty. In addition its like after 70 days the map just becomes repetitive.
Its good but it got repetitive theres not that much stuff to upgrade. Ill say get some more vehicles and more upgrades and more levels and it might be better it is a fun little game though as we said its repetitive we do recommend this game to anyone who just wants to pass the time.
Need more stuff in The Game Im already on the road for the fourth.
We enjoy playing the game but start playing it less because its getting repetitive!!! Besides the glitches the lack of new vehicles and waiting for new equipment is getting making the game less interesting!!!!! So can that issue be fixed please.
We love the game but we have some requests like opening the coming soon vehicles and adding more maps and maybe some more vehicle like a bulldozer and a vacuum stuff like that.
Please fix the clean our planet section.
Why does it have those unlocked vehicles.
, . , , – . 100% 1/4 , , . , , , ,.
Can we please get new vehicles besides the same 3 we have had for the longest time.
Thats just about as much as the game play. These must be the poorest developers on the face of the planet.
There are ads every 30 seconds and makes it so overwhelmed its a good game but so many ads.
Need the new machines already have ours already to max, been a year since they said new machines and still nothing and we have already built the first factory.
Honestly this is the best offline app block blast is #1 srry… But this is #1/2 we love it and our favorite is the carts they're so adorable.
This game is so fun but the ads can be annoying.
Great game but WAY TOO MUCH ADDS. >:( just make no adds free pls.(we hate adds) Ok.
We started in this game, but theres a one quick touch. We dont like ads.
Have completed first level and payed for add ins for the game and it wont open the next level n has never had an update.
Im to the point in the game where we built the first full factory. But im struggling to get the yellow and gray bolts. We did buy no ads and carts which makes it for easy game play. But id like to see how to fix our game while trying to get the new vehicles unlocked! Def a good game to download to kill time! 4/5.
We loved this game as a kid, we got really far, too. Its been 3 years since then (Im 12) and looking back on it, there are just too many ads! Some of which are more than 1min long for a SCAM. So yeah play at your own risk.
Love the game but the vehicles are not available after the third one u unlock just keeps saying coming soon definitely need an update because we really like this game but we didnt pay money for no ads not to get any updates.
Ive had this game for a long while now. But feels like Ive been waiting forever for an update. Im on day 109 and its still the same maps cycling and repeating and 3 vehicles while the other 3 say coming soon. Same with inside the little building that you get crates to get the parts for those rooms. Ive already got one completed but now 4 of our slots are glitched and they wont let us purchase anymore crates in those slots. Also says we still have 4 unopened crates when we clearly dont. We wont delete the game and redownload because Im afraid all our progress will be gone we barely ever get as far as we did in any of our games before getting bored with the game. It is very entertaining and satisfying for us but we would just like an update soon to we can progress more through the game.
If you are playing the game and enjoy it, pay to get the carts. Dont pay for anything else. After you clean a quarter of the world there is nothing else. No helicopter, you cannot get the factory bigger. So take your time and play it slow.
The game is how it is in the adds kind of but its a w game do recommend.
The game is a lot of fun but Ive maxed out on all the vehicles and alright hit 100%. It does make our phone heat up a lot and it has also been pretty glitchy, please add the other two vehicles and add more stuff.
Its a lot of fun but some time the barrel machine randomly stops and we have to close the app just to get it working again pleas fix it.
It is a good game but it is 17 + it is just junk.
We enjoy this game but now Im at a point where we just play the same boards over and over again. When is there going to be updates.
This should not be age 17 it should be 12 and older bc we cant play it with restrictions then but was super fun.
Im stuck on day 24. Its not showing junk, food or metal, anywhere! And wont allow us to do anything, is this an accruing thing with anyone else or just us.
Ads every 30 seconds every time there is an ad we literally quit the game and restart it to skip the ad. Its less time to quit and resume then it is to watch an ad. We understand that ads keep the game alive, however if ads are the only way to keep it alive its not that good of a game. Make ads optional for obtaining rewards or to get upgrades. Dont force ads and then also make people watch ads for upgrades. Thats abusing the ad revenue from players by both forcing ads and advertising mini ads on top of ads for upgrades. Besides ad spamming its a decent boredom game, nothing to get excited about.
After a point in the game you cant upgrade your equipment theres no more bolts and you cant get to the other equipment in the parking area.
Update it so theres more to do than the same thing waiting for new equipment to be unlocked and or more of the world unlocked.
We love this game. To be precise its called Junkyard Keeper. Junkyard keeper is fun and an excellent time killer. Unfortunately there is nothing new left. The levels are basically repeating every 30 days we think. Furthermore we have gotten the first section of the planet cleared and that was months ago. Please update. Junkyard keeper is excellent just way too short.
This game is so fun! The only problem, the game will glitch if you dont play it often enough.
Great game but something is wrong with the elevator it wont turn or back up please help and fix we tried restoring the game but it didnt fix it.
DEVELOPERS: Before the update 1 day ago (January 30, 2024) all 3 machines had no problems with functionality. After the update, our tractor is having trouble steering. Can you all please look into this and update the steering? Hopefully, we are not the only player that this has impacted. Thank you devs, and have a good day.
We like this game a lot; and had to restart the game because the magnetic scrapper got difficult to steer and ended up in a corner. We already restarted the game, hoping it would just disappear. It did, for a bit and now its back and a level cant be completed with the metallic scrapper like this. Ive restarted the game a few times. The glitch has happened at day 10 or 11; right after watching a video for an upgrade. Our first game went to over day 1000.
Our son got us playing the game. We really like it. We have it on the game phone (android) for our son and our tablet (apple) for us. On both devices, the magnet crane eventually gets a really annoying glitch where it doesnt steer. We have to get the food vacuum into place and then switch it to the magnet crane. It makes it harder and not as much fun to play when we have to use that vehicle.
Cant make it past the level where you can pick up cars and the excavator lags and cant move.
At first it was super fun to play but after a while, the metal machine started to glitch and move slow which makes it harder to play. If you can fix this thats great but we would still like to play without a problem.
Its a good game, but it never comes out with new content and it gets super laggy. Recently we have been unable to used the metal machine because we dont have any controls over it and it keeps doing wheelies.
The game is nice, but the crane barely drives at all now, it wont turn and is super janky.
We understand ads but we spent at least as much time watching ads as playing.
