This game is a cash grab. Don't be fooled, if you want to progress to automation at higher levels, you better have money to spend. Their in game gold is unattainable at all. No achievements to work towards, nothing but cold hard cash. I dont mind having to grind, I mind having to grind on every single reset for higher and higher levels to achieve automation for an idle game. But at least the gameplay is decent and they don't cap how long you can be away from the game

I have been playing this about 8 yrs now, and Premium for 2+ yrs. It is my absolute fav of all time. My 3 biggest complaints are the sheer length of time that the upper levels take!! I mean, a few MONTHS on a level is utterly ridiculous!! The 2nd is the reset not working until you have completed the game. Instead, I have to delete the game and reload it losing all Events progress. 3rd, never hearing back from Support when a purchase doesn't work - out the money with nothing in return.

It's an ok game if you want to spend real money to buy what you need in this game. I refuse to spend real money, so I can't get the items needed to level up, especially in the events. The events are harder than regular towns. In fact, in one of the 'fixes' they changed the way you are awarded beans so that it is even harder than ever. So I'll be uninstalling to save my peace of mind and lower my frustration level. I play these games to relax, not get more frustrated.
