Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We beat the entire game, and after you get to 100 we don't think it's possible to get to 101. We were at 680,000,000 ticks but we never had another birthday and you turn 100 after 400,000,000+. But it was a fun game to play and kept us entertained for 2 days.
We loved the game overall but once we got to year 100 we didnt want to play anymore you should add more people to play as like other than the person you start out as and use different sentences from the green tab Im just suggesting ideas so we hope you will take this into consideration.
We love the idea of the game, and we believe it's done very well. We think the whole "You are sick" thing needs to go. To us, starting over would make us very angry and can probably cause people to quit the app. Maybe add a bit of customization (Boy/Female, Beard/No Beard etc.). The daily spin is also worthless as the game progresses because the ticks are such tiny values.
Addicting, just gets boring after a while but is still very fun.
We absolutely love it! It keeps us distracted a lot when we're bored and it's really cool to see the evolutions! Even though we love it, it needs more options. It would be cool if you could be a girl and maybe that girl could be your wife from this version? We also think it would be cool if you could customize the room or your person? And instead of the whole thing saying "you" the whole time maybe we could name the avatar so it says the name you chose and name your kids so it doesn't say "boy" and "girl"! We hope you take our ideas into consideration :).
We played this for so long and an update would be the BEST.
The game is fun, but there are way too many ads.
Every time you open a menu you get an ad with no code button for a few seconds. It's incredibly annoying and ruining any enjoyment for the game. Look for ways to reward the player for watching ads instead of just bombarding them.
If imma tap no to an offer. Dont give us an ad. And if you do at least give us the reward.
Great game and great concept, but the ads are ridiculous, It asks if we want to see an ad and we tap no, and it still gives us ads, we understand you need ads to make money but this is ridiculous.
This game looked really good and we were really exited! But sadly we never got to play. This game will never load.
The health bar seems to not work like it is supposed to, the health never goes back up it is always just decreasing and in the tutorial it says tapping will bring up your health but it never brings it up.
