Travel Town - Merge Adventure Positive Reviews
This is an addition to my third reviewI love the game. The artwork is the best. True to your word, you are continually changing things to make the gameplay better and better. Thank you! I have one request. I will not play tasks relating to spiritism. Pretty soon I will not be able to play at all because of the summoning items, crystal balls, etc. that I am required to collect to complete the tasks. Could you perhaps add a feature where we can trash or replace orders that we don’t want to do? You could even attach a penalty, like 1000 coins or 100 diamonds. That way, I could still play. Thank you for considering this.
Additionally, you’re in-app purchases are way too high. Since we are dealing with digital items, it doesn’t cost you more if you give us 1000 diamonds rather than 100 diamonds. Why not be generous with what you give us when we pay? I’m sure people will pay (and play) more frequently when the cost is minimal, which could add up to be the same thing for you in profit. If you give people really good value for their money, they tend to spend more. I play another game frequently where they are constantly offering really good items for $.99. And for an extraordinarily large bundle, they might ask for $5.99. Your prices are way beyond that, and frankly not worth it because of how quickly resources get used up. I don’t think your average gamer has lots of money to spare. And there are probably way more of them than those who can afford your high prices. Something to consider..HensHaveEars2Version: 2.12.532
Love the game & Support Team BUT going broke!I found this game while sick, depressed and having anxiety. It was amazing how much it helped me! I really can’t explain why it worked when so many other things did not. I even told my doctor! The graphics are great, the main game is engaging and there are side games and events that keep things busy and interesting. I have had many questions, some technical issues…and I have frequently written to Support. The Support Team is wonderful, caring and empathetic! Love them! I have never bought in app purchases in games before but slowly started in this game since it was really helping me. Aside from the game you are able to trade cards from the card albums with other players and I have had interactions with players in many foreign countries, now with a pen pal friendship with a player in Belize…I am in the USA. Anxiety is now a way of life in my country and so I find great escape and comfort playing Travel Town and look forward to playing every day. I am told some folks only use the free energy you can get to play but that has not been my experience. I justified my spending as it was good for my health and cheaper than more therapy…but I have spent so much now it is really embarrassing and not sustainable on my income! I wish the game was more affordable to play long term. It has been great but expensive!.Lizzie110148Version: 2.12.942
Good, but it could be much betterLet me start off by saying i’m in level 38, so I’ve clearly been hooked to this game for a while now. That being said, the longer I play it, the less I want to. As you go up the levels, the “stacks” no longer give you enough items to keep merging; you have to tap a million times to get the things you need to win money or building materials. Like the pottery, for example- you wouldn’t believe how much I hate that thing. Waste of time. The daily challenges are quite literally impossible to finish unless you spend the 24 hours of the day playing, which is obviously ridiculous and even then I doubt you’ll finish. The stacks that require you no energy to use are annoying because the things come out on their own if there’s nothing around it. Which honestly I doubt it’ll be anyone’s case because they give you basically no room to store the stacks or items you no longer need (mind you, the stacks you started the game with are not useful at all whatsoever past level 10, if I could sell them I would). So yeah, with no energy (because it takes like 3 business days to get it), no room on the board to keep merging, no place to put things away, and having to click a stack 6 times to give you an item you don’t even need and pray you’ll eventually get those you do need to keep merging, i doubt i’ll keep playing the game much longer. A shame, because I actually enjoy it. But it’s more annoying the more you play it. Definitely could use more work and some fixes if you want to keep it engaging..HdkdjfjejsjsVersion: 2.12.353
2nd fav gameSo I do love this game however it has gotten to the point I want to delete it out of frustration. I feel once you hit a certain level it’s set up so we can fall in order to buy things. I HAVE spent money in this game bc I loved it but now it seems these orders are beginning to get to hard to fill. I run out of energy bc it gives me exactly what I DON’T need- I’ll log in 4 -5 times a day just to see if I can finally fill the order and NOPE. complete opposite crap I don’t need. I wind up going through energy within 1-2 min and let’s be honest; that’s boring. Who wants to play that?! If you can’t see any progress then forget it. It’s like I’m stuck with the same old objects and if I do fill them- it does nothing. I spend DAYS filling an order- for nothing. And let’s talk about these stupid cards. I’ve never won anything off them. I don’t even understand them bc I get a couple and that’s it. No more energy. No nothing. I do like the side games that are on there at times but they need to be on longer. At times I feel I do better on them plus it’s nice you can win stuff and it’ll transfer to your main game. Lord knows we need all the energy we can get for the main game so we can get objects we DON’T need to fill up the board space to not be able to fill anything. When it says I’m out of energy I want to throw my phone. Like what?! It gave me nothing. Same crap Over and over. I’m very close to just deleting it. It WAS fun at first but now it’s boring bc less than a min I’m out of energy with nothing to show for it- nothing happening..ChermeeksVersion: 2.12.451
I want to play longer…I am at a point where I am almost stuck, it takes several days to complete orders because it takes so much energy to build up the items needed for the orders. Energy is used up quickly and regenerates 1 every 2min (slow). I can quickly use up all 100 energy in 2 minutes…Space on the merge board gets tight, which I can respect and that doesn’t really bother me. I don’t want a game that is completely easy. But I wish I could store away all or more of my buckets into the bucket inventory tab. For some reason I can only store the beach bucket and see no way of opening up the other bucket slots. I also wish I could earn more gems (without paying) so I could at least slowly expand my item inventory tab as well. But I quickly spend all my gems on more energy because that’s the only way you can play longer than a minute at a time. I like the storyline and enjoyed the Halloween theme “mini game”. I didn’t understand why there was a very short “Day of the Dead” challenge mini game in the mix with the main merge game but we also lost power/internet for 2 days so maybe I would have enjoyed or understood it more if I could have played during that time. I also went back to look at the updates being done because the game developers frequently respond to reviews saying they are taking recommendations into account. However, the game update reports don’t give any information. Several of us give the same suggestions but updates don’t report the changes being made and major changes don’t seem to be happening very often..Masters level studentVersion: 2.12.116
Pretty good game, though the ads are misleading.I got this game because the ads made it look more like a coffee shop themed merge game, which sounded fun. I got to the app page and was disappointed to see it wasn’t, but I thought I would give it a chance anyway since the ad was at least somewhat indicative of gameplay and not a bad soap opera plot showing fake gameplay like some other games I could mention…
I really like it! It’s a good game, prices for things that cost gems are reasonable, recharge times are consistent and short enough that I actually want to come back and play throughout the day unlike some other games that take so long I end up playing once a day if that. The art style for the characters isn’t my personal cup of tea, but the rest of the game is really pretty and I like the icons for all the items on my board.
My main complaint is that I only ever have three requests at a time, usually only one of which gives smilies, and two of them have items in them that I can’t make currently and have no idea how to create. Having more requests at a time (maybe scaled with level? I’m at level 23 currently and only progressing with the “hidden” requests of three big sandcastles or cutlery sets that only appear when the needed items are on the board) would be helpful. Also, showing what item produces the target item when you select an item’s info page instead of just showing the merge chain would be helpful. I have no idea how to make soap or tea cups, and two of my three requests need those, so I’m essentially down to one request at a time..Hashtag-anthemsVersion: 2.12.51
Minor issues (Sorry if I complain too much)Travel Town is a great game, but it also really needs money. I can’t spend, but it needs so much money if you want to play for a long time with out stopping. I love it, but I often have to leave for a couple hours to wait for energy. I was crazy enough to calculate the time I needed to wait for a 100. 3 hours and 20 minutes. So, by that logic, if I run out at, say, 10:43, I have to wait in till 2:03. And if this is at P.M, I waiting in till 2:00 IN THE MORNING. I NEED SLEEP, BUT I’M ADDICTED. So this is likely a me problem, but I do want more energy after the 3 hours 20 minutes than 100. Again, it was probably a me problem. But the game itself is partially the reason, for being so appealing. Another issue is that I’m struggling to get even the easy orders done without extra energy. I know the orders are getting harder, but the point of the easy orders in my opinion is to allow you to finish an order with minimal amount of energy. I would also like for the surprise boxes to automatically pause when you exit the app. I know this would allow you to get more prizes, but they aren’t even given out that often, free or prize.
Sorry this is so long! But it is a good game, and it’s still fine with or without these. Do what you want!.FnMnLnVersion: 2.12.1262
BoringThis game was fun at first, but as you het higher in level the things needed to advance get more and more complicated to get. This might sound great. Like it’s better because it’s more challenging, but no, it isn’t more challenging. It just takes longer doing the exact same thing you were doing at the lower level.
In game you use various generators to make different lines of products. Each generator seems to prefer one of their components more than others, so if I need soup and to merge the soup to higher levels, I might waste all of my energy making fruit salad and never even make one pre soup component. The game also retires these generators at various levels, so you may have spent 3 days leveling up that soup and now there are no more foods needed in the game at all.
The absolute worst part of the game is opening it. You cannot start playing without at least 2, maybe up to 6 pop up windows advertising events and special items and sales that they are having.
Another dumb feature is that the generators need to recharge when you over use them. They only recharge when you do the overuse though e.g. I use the soup generator 38 times then do other stuff or wait for more energy to regenerate. You would think after 4 hours the generator would be back to normal, unfortunately after 2 more clicks you have to wait for it to recharge. (Hypothetical numbers) Why won’t it refresh while it is sitting idle for 4 hours. Terrible..Guy 1139*Version: 2.12.1081
Energy pop upsI like the game enough but they have a pop up where it gives you an option to use gems for energy... the issue is this pops up once you run out so if you are tap, tap, tapping to spawn items quickly it will pop up and its too easy to tap it the second it pops up and bam, gems are gone. when if you see it pop up you get 25 free energy for watching adds which is an option at the bottom. They need to give you an option to confirm because this has happened more times than I can count.
I also agree with the previous commenter about using way too much energy on items. Some items that you need to spawn the higher level items have taken me 2 days to get to because they rarely spawn the items you need, and I mean very rarely. There are ones that take spawning and merging till you get to another spawning point and that point/item only spawns so many before it breaks down... so I will have spawned the temporary ones and several times in a row I wont even get one fragment that I need, I understand that its meant to be more difficult but 2 days is excessive and I play quite often throughout the day, even purchasing packs at times.
It's simply ridiculous!.LStaplemanVersion: 2.12.672
One of the best games I’ve ever played!I discovered this game because it was apart of a offers page. I wanted to get this SHEIN $750 dollar reward card. But it told me I had to complete 12 offers before I could get it. This was one of the games I downloaded it told me I had to reach level 7. It’s almost level 12 and honestly I was hooked the first 5 minutes of playing! It was quite funny because I didn’t care anymore about that offers page. I had found a one of the most fun games ever and that’s what I was happy about. You can play this game for hours and be entertained. You will be upset when your energy runs out. But you can watch a few ads to gain more energy. It’s kinda of a good thing for you to take a break and let the energy build up again. You can buy more energy but it’s really not necessary. So this game so so fun. I could play it for hours. I highly recommend it. I even shared on my Facebook. It’s rare for me to share games like that but I was like this game is real special. So yes this is the type of game you will wanna keep playing again and again..JaimieJamzzzzVersion: 2.12.600
Good but….So I’ve read a few reviews and sadly I agree with them:(. I also liked the game, I like the graphics and I usually play it when I have a minute or two to spare. I’m not really much into playing games or spending a lot of time on a phone/computer but this game kinda got my interest. Unfortunately what’s the most frustrating is that recharge feature:(. If I have, literally, a minute I want to play, I click on a ‘producer’ and just after ONE item it needs to recharge! That’s just ridiculous:(. So there goes my minute:/. Sure..there are other options but I’m usually after something specific In the beginning I told myself I won’t be spending any money on any in-app purchases…and yet I did. Because I like the game. Even with all those ever annoying ads. Sadly this recharge thing will be probably what breaks the camels back for me. I, MAYBE, wait for an update if anything changes but I’ll be most likely deleting this game:(. I know that one player is nothing for you but I just wanted you to know. UPDATE:
So the latest update is a bummer:(. “Golden bone certificate frame” producer lost everything related to dogs and to get cat’s feeder takes good 5-600!!! energies. If not more:/. And on top of that it needs to ‘recharge’..which is super annoying as I already mentioned in my original review.. “Tree of grape clusters” producer is messed up as well…doesn’t give as many items as it used to and once some (any) item is in a bubble there seems to be way less options to watch the ad to pop the bubble. So you guys wanted to know what “we think”. I can’t speak for others but for me it’s NOT a good update:/. I’m surprised I still didn’t delete it..:(
PLEASE GET RID of the RECHARGING feature!!!.SvetluskaberuskaVersion: 2.12.870
EnjoyableThis game is fun and it has no ads unless you choose to watch adds for extra energy or to pop bubbles. I gave it 3 instead of 5 because some orders require more than 100 energy to complete and it takes days to finish unless you’re buying more energy. At first, there is the option to use diamonds for energy but it keeps increasing the price which seems kind of unfair. I am personally not a fan of the trading cards. I wish there was a way we can opt out of getting them “reward” and instead get more tool boxes/bags or energy. Or maybe I just don’t care about it because I am not connected to a community to trade. But besides that, its definitely enjoyable. I am glad they have a feature to remove the chats. I wasn’t in it for the story. I am only playing because I like matching the items and seeing what comes next. I will not that I am a fairly new player so I an still haven’t gotten past level 20 but I am starting to get a little burnt out over having to create items to create other items but rarely gives you the items you need so you have to recreate the item once it runs out. I’ve just been skipping those orders unless they offer tool boxes/bags since they’re the only way to advance certain levels..TwinGrayVersion: 2.12.820
Fun game, butI have been playing this game for over a year, almost every day. I really enjoy it and all the side challenges. I especially love the islands. The graphics are really cute. If I could, I would play for hours, but sadly, 100 energy points only lasts me about three minutes of play. Then I watch the ads to get the extra 25 points. That gives me another five minutes, and then if I don’t have enough diamonds to buy more energy after watching the ads, I can’t play anymore until I wait and wait to get one energy point every two minutes. Also, I very rarely ever win a side challenge (because I never have enough energy or diamonds) and it ends before I can win. I also very rarely ever complete all the daily tasks because I have no energy or diamonds to buy energy or items.
It would be better to start each day with 500 energy points and unlimited opportunities to watch ads to get extra energy, or even shorten the time from two minutes to 30 seconds to earn an energy point. Because for people like me who really like the game but am unable to purchase energy or diamonds, it would mean I could play more than just a few minutes at a time..Starseed007Version: 2.12.1000
LOVE THIS GAMEI’ve been wanting to write this review for awhile but I never write reviews, especially for games.
Anyway this game is awesome it’s very user friendly. It is one of very few games that you don’t have to spend any money on to progress, you just have to be patient. When I started playing the energy went up to 200 but even after it changed to 100 I didn’t feel cheated. The developers are VERY RESPONSIVE. Every Time I had an issue with the game they responded and I received compensation in the game for any glitches. I couldn’t believe it! Unfortunately I have to delete the game for personal reasons. (If the developers come up with a way to skip level 67 let me know!!) I love the trading group! Communicating with people all over the world.. I use a translator so I can talk to them in their language, so fun! It makes me sad reading comments on FB of people commiserating about a stupid little things. This game is fun and addictive just like it should be. I’m going to miss it but maybe I’ll start it again from the beginning! One note .. maybe this is just my experience but the last update seemed to make the images smaller Please Change It Back, smaller looks weird :-).CheapSkate1Version: 2.12.771
Blue Gems!Hello developers. Getting straight to the point. Either the recharge time needs to be lowered or give more opportunities to gain blue gems to buy energy. The shop is useless to me because i never have blue gems to spend. Why cant things in the shop be bought with smileys instead? Certain orders take entirely too long to fulfill. This drives you to have to try to merge other items in the meantime which quickly fills the board with items you cant sell because theyre needed. With each source at least give enough items to make half the order. Also when leveling up the energy level should rise. 100 is not alot of energy when your whole top row is a source object. The seashells and silverware takes forever!
In closing, dont take this as a negative review. Love the game and latest update. Not asking for a simplified game but more of a balance. I play daily every chance i get. But make it worth my effort . I shouldnt be merging for weeks to get one high level food item. Its pointless to use the whole 100 energy to try and get one high leveled food item thats still not completed after using the next 100 after waiting on a recharge. Work with me please. Im level 24 and only have 4 areas unlocked. Come on!.Pro soligolferVersion: 2.7.0
Great game - has flaws.I would literally play this game all day long if it wasn't for the ridiculously fast rate at which you run out of energy and then everything is behind a pay wall or ads. I don't mind watching the ads but after 3, the option disappears and you're left with spending real money as your only option. For now, I'm game to wait until my energy refills and come back to play again but I keep wondering how long before I get annoyed enough to stop. I've spent some real money on the game but overall really try to avoid doing that so I feel I'll be done with it sooner than later.
I agree with some of the other reviews that talk about how difficult it becomes to make higher level items once you reach a certain level and how maxed out creator items rarely give you what you actually need. These two things lead to a very crowded and overwhelming board which makes it a little less fun and more anxiety-producing.
I think it's a great game and is definitely super fun and addicting but just wish I could play longer without running out of energy and/or having to spend actual money to play for more than 5min..GinkoBeeVersion: 2.12.451
Great game but that update thoughThis is my favorite game. I pretty regularly come back about every three hours - after my energy had replenished sometimes sooner with the auto producers. I have even spent some of my own money on it. This new update though. I am so disappointed. A lot of the previous producers that I had competed are no longer completed and as I am completing them…again it’s not for any new content. It’s for an item that I had previously achieved but the makeup of the producer has changed so it nullifies my progress. I just feel jipped and it’s annoying to go back to complete something that I’ve already completed. Also now when you reach the max level - it no longer gives an option for an auto buy. I really loved that and it helped clear off my board. An idea for the developers - give an option for orders to decline like 3 in a day and then any more declined would require a gem purchase. Also I would like the trading group to be in app. I still enjoy the game and will keep playing but I am much less motivated to log on and I am still disappointed and will continue to be bummed out until I have finally backtracked and made progress that I already did..P.maybsVersion: 2.12.870
Fun but EXPENSIVE and RIGGED >:(PLEASE READ: save yourself a lot of time and money. The game is enjoyable to an extent. I’m embarrassed to say I have spent well over $300 on TT (which I NEVER do for an app). But I couldn’t advance unless I bought a package and now I'm starting to realize it’s a waste. One item needed for orders takes all of my energy, items keep disappearing, including diamonds. But what really annoys me is the card packs. And this is the honest truth…. I opened 20+ packs in a row and they were all dupes except for one…ONE!!!! Even XL & SUPER packs. I wish I could show screenshots here bc I’ve been documenting everything ever since I noticed the unfairness of this game. It’s a huge let down esp considering the amount of money I’ve put into it. Don’t think I’ll be playing much longer. ON A BETTER NOTE….I came to realize there are much cheaper merge games out there. Better story lines, cheaper packages, all under $10. It’s more fun playing an affordable game, where you can advance fairly. Travel Town is basically a money pit. The developers seem greedy. $30 for a package that gets sucked up making just a couple items and card packs that only release one every so often is a huge disadvantage. Do better..Lo2715Version: 2.12.541
Love it but also don’t…I love the story line and all of the different generators - it’s less boring because of that. I also really like that you can store some of your lesser used generators so they don’t take up space, and that the building supplies don’t cost energy to free them from the tool boxes. However, for many of the generators you get maybe one special item for every maybe 15-20 regular items, so when a customer asks for higher level special item, it takes many cycles of energy to get it. It’s probably quite literally impossible to complete all daily tasks without spending gems and/or real money. Opportunities to collect gems are sparse. Finally, customers rarely, if ever ask for lesser-valued items once you have a given generator more developed/completed. Except for newly discovered generators, the customers only ask for high level items. Ultimately it is the energy expense of order fulfillment that will cause me to delete this game, I just haven’t…yet. I understand that these developers need the players to spend real money in order for the developers to make money, but when they make it this much of a hassle to progress that I delete the game, what did they really gain?.Aafangel06Version: 2.12.482
Fun game, some issuesIt’s a fun game, but my only few issues with it are that there are way too many pop-ups when trying to play the game. When I open the app there’s an absurd number of pop-ups for different events, things to spend real life money on, etc. and it takes too long to get past them all to play the actual game. If you run out of energy it gives you four pop-up windows trying to get you to buy more energy points. The worst one is when it directs you to open the pass and you actually have to click “activate” before it gives you a red X to click out of it. That’s an active effort to try to force me to pay for the pass and I don’t want the pass. I’d like if there were fewer pop-ups or if there was a setting to just turn them off. Or they could all pop up at once as a thing you can scroll through, so you can see them all but it’s not taking forever to show me new things back to back, you know what I mean? Other than that I think it’s great. I love this game..Mr KachowVersion: 2.12.1462
Bubbles - EnergyI think this is a very nice game. I enjoy quite a bit everything this far. As of right now I only have 2 gripes. 1. when you run out of energy it costs you 10 gems to refill, the issue is that gems are hard to get (I understand that the company have to make money by selling packages, but allow the opportunity to earn more gems a bit more quickly). Also, why don’t you start small with how much gems energy costs, say instead of starting at 10 gems start at 5 and do increments of 5 thereafter, that would be more reasonable and will allow the opportunity to buy packages. 2. thereafter bubbles when you either combine 2 items or get it while pumping an item are fine, what is annoying is the fact that you either watch a video to get the item or pay with gems, either I have no problem, but if I don’t need that bubble item I have to wait 2-3 minutes for the bubble to pop, meanwhile that bubble is taking space that I need. If you can have the option to just pop the bubble and get the one coin or one gem you give that would be awesome.
Otherwise, very entertaining game!.Sirias13Version: 2.12.841
Too many generatorsMinor update: to give credit where it’s due, a lot of people were talking about how the generators were clogging up our inventory, and they went and added in a special generator inventory which freed up a lot of space. So, great move. Still weird they have so many (and don’t even use all of the parts within them - unless we revisit them way later) but, hey, small victories
They keep adding new ones and you have to store away the old ones. And there is no way to get inventory slots with the basic currency like in EVERY OTHER GAME OF THIS TYPE. It’s still a good merge game though. However, these few things will keep it from being better than some of the others in the genre. But yea, someone else mentioned either adding a generator tab for storage, or, you know… stop adding a million generators/have future orders use the old generators. Of course, I’m sure it’s like this to con you into spending more money to add storage slots. I won’t fall for that, but I will keep playing until it becomes too much of a hassle (at this time I’m level 63 and it’s still manageable). Updated from 3 to 2 after multiple changes to make playing free even less friendly..ErasteVersion: 2.12.109
Started out funThis game started out fun but now is to the point where it’s repetitive, especially if you don’t want to spend money on it. I have 10 “producers” in storage because I’m never asked to use them for orders or anything. What’s the point of having so many producers if half of them never get used? I’m also about to delete the entire app because of the pop-ups every time I open it. There is no reason for 5-6 pop-ups, and I really don’t appreciate being forced to agree to participate in special events in order to get the pop-up to go away.
Editing to add I am deleting this game and you’ve lost the money I was spending on it. I’m tired of having to click through eight different pop ups just for the privilege of be of allowed to sign I’m, and I’m tired of being forced to participate in your special events. I support your business by actually making purchases in the game and I should have the right to pass on “Fireworks Frenzy” or whatever it’s called. You have lot of nerve monetizing this game and then also controlling what people do and decline to do in it. Good luck finding replacements for the users you lose by being annoying and greedy..MaccaJudeVersion: 2.12.1060
Overall great!I really like this game. It is simple and fun. There are natural slow-down mechanisms designed to get you to spend money, but they aren’t very bad and don’t interrupt the game in a way that detracts from it, in my opinion.
However, I can’t give it five stars due to a specific problem. At the top of the game there are 4-5 community members with orders you need to fulfill. These orders tend to be the most important way of moving forward / making progress in the town. But early on one of the orders is for a fossil. And this fossil is basically impossible to get! And there is no way to dismiss / move on from that order. So I’m basically down to 3 orders for the rest of the game instead of 4. I did write to the app developer about the fossil, and they impressively responded rather quickly. But the way they said to try to get it is ineffective (I’ve clicked the relevant thing 500 times, so I did give it a chance) and for some reason the joker (which is supposed to merge with *anything*) won’t merge here either.
So: overall very happy with the game. Don’t like this one thing that is detracting from my experience..Hotelier3400Version: 2.12.73
Loved game in the beginning but now not so muchI have played this game since July and it’s have been INVESTED mentally and financially. In the beginning it was much easier to complete the tasks and if you wanted to continue playing just to play then you could pay for gems and energy. Now recently I realized that the tasks are now almost unattainable unless you spend money everyday. Which shouldn’t be. The album for example there is no reason that I gave so many multiples of cards over and over again I can’t get to complete the entire album within the time of I am investing my time into the game. Then there are the tasks to get coins to complete challenges there is no reassign it takes 100 energies to come half way to completing one. then the only way is to wait to get energy or watch the adds and you can only do that 4 times in a day so that isn’t even a lot and to get to another 100 it takes almost 3 hours. It starting to be a turn off. Which makes me sad because i truly enjoyed playing.~thenofacedoll~Version: 2.12.401
Needs undo button or confirmation buttonGenerally I love this game and have been playing for a long time, have developed my own strategies in how to maximize my energy and time and resources. The one big issue here is that with other merge games, there is a temporary undo option or at least a “did you mean to purchase this”? confirmation check for things that cost a lot of resources, especially with the amount of interaction with the game, it’s very easy to accidentally graze over a button and delete an essential item or buy something you didn’t mean to with coins and or gems you have been saving for something else. And sometimes that is an accidental double click. This is the third time I have went to buy a energy chest for 24 gems and it gave me 2 chests and took 72 gems from me that I have been collecting and working on all month to build up. I did not want that and did not need it and was saving it for other items in the shop that I really need. this can really mess up progress and can be a huge detriment to retaining players for this game..GodslittlebeeVersion: 2.12.544
Almost PerfectThis game is great. Other merge games I've tried are either too slow, or impossible to play without spending money. There's obviously effort being put into this game, it's not something made for a quick buck. There's no interruption ads, though there are many popup prompts for purchases. The pace you can move at isn't too fast or slow. I've had the game for about 3 weeks and I'm on level 28.
My main problem with this game, is the energy system. I know there's meant to be some idle features on this game, but this is too much. It takes almost 4 hours to get full energy. I feel like I never actually get to play the game because I'm constantly waiting for the game to let me play. And there's hardly any others ways to get it without spending money. $4 for only 200 energy? That's not worth it at all. I wish there was a way to eliminate the energy feature, so I can actually play the game for more than 3 minutes at a time. I'd be willing to pay for that, it would be like playing a full version of the game. I just wish there was less waiting for the game and more actually ppaying the game..AmandaThePotatoVersion: 2.12.431
I used to love it BUTIt’s time for me to delete. I’ve played this game for a long time now BUT the higher up you get in levels the more impossible it is to complete tasks and buy buildings. The level I’m at now requires me to spend over 100,000 to complete each piece of a task. Do you know how long it takes to do this with 100 life???? it takes days unless you’re purchasing the packets. I love this game but I’ve spent too much money for the lack of rewards. I guess greed got the better of them cause now the completion rate takes so long it’s taken the fun out the game. It takes so long for new life to generate. 1 every 2 mins AND this has to be my biggest pet peeve. If you purchase life or win it then it doesn’t regenerate your free recurring life or give you your automatic 100 over night… so really they’re punishing you for purchasing. I’m about to delete for myself and off my kids devices too. The frustration is outweighing the fun at this point. It’s the only game I’ve consistently come back to so I’m sad to be leaving but time to find something that feels more rewarding and isn’t becoming such an expense.ScottishGamerGirlVersion: 2.12.1241
Generally a great game.I sometimes get frustrated that I can never finish the times specials but then I remember that it is a game. I enjoy playing so I remind myself that it’s the journey not the destination that matters..Irate83Version: 2.12.942
So many pop upsSince the latest update you need to get through countless pop ups for offers just to be able to get to the main board. It makes the user experience painful..YYZinYXEVersion: 2.12.1332
Hmm1. Game is not what’s advertised in ads (shells falling and merging in the shore line)
2. I will admit, the game is fun, but takes forever to get energy, and you run out so quickly that you’re really only playing for 5-10 minutes before you’d have to pay money.
3. Pushes you to spend money on energy, multiple pop ups, and makes energy so hard to get that you’d really have to buy it to move forward. If you use jewels to buy energy, it doubles cost each time. The only good news is, it resets each day so you have the opportunity to buy energy with a small amount of jewels each day, but it gets harder to get jewels each day too.
4. Its set up so if you don’t spend money, you’ll be waiting and playing for days to achieve one goal.
5. Just beware they give you multiple free energy’s at first so you really fall in love with the game so you are enticed to spend your money. In this economy, it would be foolish to have to spend so much money to excel in a game. It is fun, and I want to spend the money everyday, but it’s not possible, so the game gets frustrating very quickly..MousieGamesVersion: 2.12.622

Travel Town - Merge Adventure Negative Reviews
So disappointed all my progress lostI cannot believe they had the NERVE to reset all the progress anybody has made on this game. To have spent all the time I did playing this game it’s a slap in the face you have the audacity to reset everything because you can’t do a decent update!!! Granted you have gems backe etc but you haven’t given me my time back and now you force everyone to start from scratch!!! Also proceeding in the game was supposed to be easier but what a lie!! Why would anyone want to waste their time playing your game because sure enough I get back to where I was you will decide to be jerks And reset everyone’s progress yet again. You cannot be trusted at all!!!!! Was a good game until you decided to screw all the people who play your game!! Was a good game but you’ve clearly got Greedy and have ruined a good game!! If your developers clearly don’t know what they are doing if you have to reset people’s progress to push out updates many developer put out huge updates but don’t screw the players like you have. Your same response to everyone’s critical comments is not useful and shows your greediness. Trying to tell people who are upset saying users like the changes is a lie as you continue to get critical comments and you don’t care!! Clearly you are only reading old comments and not the comments since you screwed everyone over because your greedy. Not one good review since you messed up so how can you say people were looking forward to having they’re progress reset.SassytxgirlVersion: 2.0.6
The more you buy the less you win and the more you struggleI enjoyed playing the game but more and more they make the items less attainable. You get tons of items you don’t need to get a few you do. The rewards for upgrading and advancing level will never be enough to even begin to compensate the investment of time and money, yes, money. The worst happened today after they upgraded the app yesterday, while being at level 23 and having upgraded many times, and having just bought coins and diamonds, I am now getting items at ground level from before I upgraded. Example, I was getting a glass of soda to start with and it would go up from there, now the game it’s starting me lower, at a glass of water so I need to merge many more times to get to the item I want and this is happening with all of my other items??!!!! What???!! Is this the reward for upgrading and spending my money?? Mind you I usually just play but I decided to put some money to see how it would reward me for it, if at some point it just allows you to build and then I could keep playing with what was built, the answer is no. Even if you make plenty of coins, you can’t buy power nor diamonds with it. You can only upgrade a town that you get basically almost nothing back for your upgrade. Example, it has costed you 5000 in energy and 300 diamonds to upgrade to the next level and the game will reward you with 45 energy and 3 diamonds. The creators of this game need to rethink the rewards or else, they will lose the clients/gamers once they realize there is no win in this game, it’s just more like mind games..Abby Lu 333Version: 2.12.713
Game reviewUpdate: now on level 121 and the game had 100% stalled and is now impossible to pass. It's been 3 weeks since I have completed an order. To move on I would have to purchase a toolbox but I'm not willing to keep playing a game that's dependent on me spending money. I emailed customer support and they sent the classic "it's a rare item so it takes different amounts of time to get everything" but I can't finish any orders to gain more items to level up. Sad because I really enjoyed this game.
I’ve been playing this game for a few months. I’m a level 96 and the game has stalled. I generally only have 3 orders to complete. Two of them I can’t even complete because I don’t have the sewing machine so I’m left with most days only having one order to possibly complete. This makes leveling up and completing levels and orders almost impossible. I have gotten maybe 12 toolboxes in the last week. And they are from the extra orders I receive. Once every 3-5 days I receive 5+ more orders but they are always the same. The tiger habitat event has been the same, exactly the same, since the day I downloaded the game nothing literally nothing has changed. It would be easier if there was a way to access the animal event from the board screen either on the board or in the corner instead of being on the upgrade screen. More than 50% of the time the event is occurring I don’t remember that it is happening because I don’t see it. The only reason I remember that is occurring is because less ads on purchasing items for the game..Entwined17Version: 2.12.51
Used to like it a lotThie game started off really fun and I really enjoy it especially considering theres little to no ads interrupting everything. It takes so much time and energy now to actually accomplish anything and even if I use gems to replenish my energy half the time it gives me things I don't need. My board has become so full and overwhelming that I can barely tell what I have on it anymore. And random stacks of cookies now? What am I supposed to do with these? I have resorted to selling them which only gives me like 2 energy. Selling high quality items barely gives you anything. And im now stuck on trying to get enough coins and building materials. I'm pretty far along but thats because I give a lot of time between to build up energy. And also the daily challenges are near impossible, you would have you spend basically 24/7 on the game to get all of them considering it asks you to collect coins most of the time. I also hate the tile/pottery thing, takes so much energy to use it and it never gives you want you want. This game is based on luck now. Stop adding random stuff and cluttering everything. If we complete one of the producers and max everything out in it we should be able to put it away indefinitely so there's more space, allow easier daily tasks, make maxed out items worth more. And get rid of the useless items that build up..Snowywolf5645Version: 2.12.175
Functionality MalfunctionThis game is fun! I am an adult (even if I don’t like “adulting” sometimes) and I love to match up to fill orders and upgrade buildings, but every now and then recently, I get the option to play an ad to pop a bubble for a match piece to something, like I was trying to get the other half to the sewing station so I could make the Stitched Panel to complete another order, and the ad button didn’t work! It was a dud! I moved the bubble and it disappeared, leaving the bubble with only the option to spend gems to pop, and me with one less gem than what was required to pop! I’m not spending anymore money on this game, but I’ll make you all (the developers) some money by watching ads if the functionality always worked! To boot, the buttons at the bottom of my app didn’t work either, so I did a hard restart of the app to restore that functionality, but the ad button didn’t reappear. I’d give more stars, but don’t block me like that when it’s already hard enough at higher levels! I’m level 49, almost 50 and it is hard getting the stuff together to upgrade building and earn XP to level up! To bring it around, I might have gotten the money to get the next upgrade and earn enough XP, if only I’d have been able to watch an ad (which I despise but will watch to earn stuff) to get that second half of the sewing station!.Jtyma002Version: 2.12.702
AnnoyedThe further along I get into this game, the longer I find myself just waiting. The board fills up with different items that make other items, then side items. Some create duplicate balloons you can pop by watching and ad or spending jewels. If you don’t want the balloon item, it’ll eventually pop and turn into coins usually. But it takes FOREVER for these bubbles to pop. I’ve waited about 2 minutes for one to pop because I had no more room on the board and needed to cash in the coins to create more space, but I had to wait. The orders keep getting more expensive and harder, but they hardly pay you out anything. Game inflation, man. So, so frustrating. I know I’m reaching the end of playing this game, because even to play it throughout the day, it’s almost impossible to do without spending REAL money, and I’ve spent way more on this game than I have any other game ever…. Because I had to in order to keep playing. If I don’t spend money, it’ll take almost a full day just to fill one order. So yeah, almost done with this unless the orders are a little bit more accessible to fill or the rewards were bigger for the GIANT order I just filled. Make the boards bigger too, as players get further in the game. Or the inventory. Idk. Just seems like I can’t be the only one feeling this way..Kierst23Version: 2.12.582
ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDiNG ME??????I really loved this game. It was fun, addictive, and I got to level 61 and almost had all of the available plots completed. (I had three left in the fog.) I was looking forward for an update, as it would mean I would get more things to do soon. Today, (June 18th, 2021) the developers released an update. I was excited. I then began panicking when I read the description of the update. “We’ll be removing everyone’s progress because the update is so big!” Or something similar was what was said.
I ended up updating it, assuming that I misread the description. I WISH that’s what happened. My level 61, almost completed town was wiped. ALL THE WAY TO THE BEGINNING. At that point, I took the app and deleted it. The developers’ decision was horrendous, just because they want to show off some fancy coding and new features. The free diamonds don’t make up for the hours I spent working to grow my town and merging. I don’t care about the new features or some idiot designers “fancy coding.” This app literally wasted my time and I regret everything I put into it. There are so many other merge games that are just getting started and don’t delete your progress with updates. This one needs to follow suit.
As a company, this is just shameful. I honestly want to file a complaint with the App Store, because this is extremely unprofessional and crude. I WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP OR ANY OTHER THIS COMPANY CREATES! I’m going through my IPad now and if I have any other apps of theirs, they’re gettng deleted ASAP..==Tigris1==Version: 2.0.6
Don’t be a victim like me!!!!It’s the first time to leave my review for the app. I agree with that this game is fun and addictive. I’ve been paying a small amount for playing a game, but im not willing to buy an item over twice per game or big items. That means that im really confident the transaction should be so obvious. First few times were good. At some point, the notifications for buying item transactions had become so strange. The bill showed two or three different transactions at the same time. I thought previous transaction can be included in the same bill. However, Im pretty sure it was wrong since I didn’t buy items sequentially in a short time. I claimed few days later it happened, but my claims were rejected.
Today, I tried to change my payment method on purpose with apple cash which has only $10 of balance. I attempted to buy one item of $7.99. It was denied BECAUSE they charged two transactions of $1.99 and $7.99 at the same time. So, the balance is not sufficient to pay both. Unluckily, you got the fraudulent transaction of $1.99 that I haven’t tried and received. Although I haven’t got the item for $7.99 that I was willing to buy, but I can catch the moment that my money was stolen. I have claimed the transactions that I got stolen so far. Hopefully today’s transaction would be a proof and helpful for the investigation..Unfair personVersion: 2.12.606
Honest reviewGoing to give an honest review, in the beginning it’s fun. They give you lots of lighting aka energy bolts that you need apparently to match things and create things. But after level 20, forget it. It’s not that it becomes difficult. It becomes extremely difficult to play if you do NOT pay. Yes, that’s correct what I’ve stated. If you’re not putting money into this, then it becomes absolutely unplayable. You only get 100 bolts, every two minutes you get another one, but after it goes to 100 that’s it you’re done. To create something on level 20 now you need to match things and merge things about seven 7-25 times. Every time you pull out an item so you can merge, you use one bolt. So for example, if you need to make a bowl of ice cream, there are 7 dishes prior you have to create to get ice cream. 2 yogurts create sweet coffee, then you need 2 more yogurts to create another copy so that way you can merge the two coffees together. Every time you take one yogurt out or whatever is that you’re making it’s taking a bolt. So by the time you’re done, you’ve already wasted all your bolts and you have not finished creating your meal. Hence why you need to buy with real cash those bolts oh wait for about an hour for you to get more bolts. It’s insane and ridiculous. It defeats the l purpose of you actually trying to play freely. There will be little game courses you can play to get more bolts for free, but once again it’s making me meals and like 30 minutes so you still have to spend money to get more bolts. I did not buy any so I’m telling you right now. This game is not playable after a certain level which is level 20..Oxiqueen84Version: 2.12.1421
Very cheatyUpdate: developers do not listen to their players! It should not take 2 minutes to gain energy! This is ridiculous and a waste of time. It is a pay to play game 100%. There is absolutely no way to gain energy unless you’re paying real money. I’m deleting and never downloading again.
This game was fun the first three levels and then turned very cheaty very fast. It never gives you what you need. It takes forever to build up energy. There is absolutely zero way to earn energy unless you spend diamonds or real money. You can’t upgrade buildings without building material but you can’t get the material because you can’t get the items or even move the customers around. I’ve had the game for 2 days and it’s absolutely annoying that you can’t get anywhere in this game unless you spend money! Have you seen this economy??? No one is willing to spend their hard earn income on a game. Now if you gave us more ways to earn energy or did it like some other games where you can give others energy it would be great! Also why do you need WiFi with this game?? The only reason I gave 2 stars is because there are no adds. So thank you for that. But this game needs serious work with the players in mind. You could always go look at Royal match or Lilly’s garden for ways to improve the game. Thanks for reading..Awesome!...no not reallyVersion: 2.12.672
UnbelievableI wanted to thank you guys for making this game progressively stingier and stingier to the point where first, I just refused to spend money on principle, and now it’s gotten SO bad and I have been so wildly insulted and infuriated that I literally finally dropped even the free version. I just got 2 max items that I spent weeks building to and my prize was a few thousand coins and TWENTY TWO ENERGY. TWENTY TWO LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU USE 22 ENERGY IN 4 SECONDS. THAT IS MY PRIZE FOR WEEKS OF BUILDING TO A MAX ITEM - TWO OF THEM. the slap in the face for those of us who have spent money on this game thinking eventually you’d get some level of rewards or something for shelling out our money on this tr ash, but NOPE! the game has just gotten even worse and made sure you have to pay the equivalent of a second rent to be able to play it regularly. I have no idea how this game isn’t somehow qualified a s a s c a m for how much money they take and give you progressively less and less.
let me be clear people - you can spend the amount of money to buy every single gaming console available (PS5, xBox, Wii, Switch, etc) on this piddly little app and you will not get one single molecule of rewards/levelling/ANYTHING to show for it.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!!! this sort of pay to play game is worse than gambling bc you literally get ZERO return on they money you put down. ZERO..ScorpiosokasVersion: 2.12.1280
Unrealistic expectations lead to desperation for money.The game is fun and entertaining. Cute graphics and it is enjoyable to play. However despite its temptation to lure you in, it’s all ruined. Sure you can progress. But there’s little point or drive to go forward, you HAVE objectives but they are unrealistic to hit. Even the daily’s goals are unrealistic to hit, the first 5 are realistic then they want you to get 20k in 24 hours. If you live on the game and constantly play so your energy is never fully recharged and you use it every time you are active, you will get about an average of 8k gold. That’s the maximum that’s realistically obtainable if you do nothing else all day long. (That’s called an unhealthy addiction btw and no one should be expected to play your game like that.) so how can you get 20k for the daily? You can’t! The only thing I can think of is the devs want you to spend money, lots of it! Just to get the daily! I didn’t do the stupid amount of math to calculate how much money you’d have to spend to reach the daily, every day, but it’s a lot. You can’t even get bats to open your pumpkins without completing the daily. Honestly it’s so unrealistic, I’d write this game off as a really well done scam. I give money to games. But I won’t be giving money to this game. So the devs know, you get more money by being less greedy, then you do trying to force your players to spend. Games that only ask for money through cosmetics, get record breaking purchases. Just keep that in mind. Key example is once human. The game is mediocre but fun. But it’s pretty and they only sell cosmetics. They are getting stupid amounts of money for a game that needs lots of work..App user30Version: 2.12.751
Money RacketThis game is a complete money racket! You can try for an entire month to collect enough cards in order to win prizes, and instead of actually awarding those cards to you, they will give you multiples of the same card so it becomes impossible for you to get the compete set! And every time you pay for an upgrade or pay for extras, you can guarantee they will just give you replacements of the same items you already have. Also, I counted that it took over 250 energy bolts just to keep rolling the dice until you get an item that will award you coins or other freebies. For example, the boat icon pumps out like five different items. So if you get some thing that requires 10th in line of said item, you will be playing forever and spending lots of money just to roll the dice and attempt to get that item. With you only getting 100 bolts a day for free, it is COMPLETELY not worth it, especially considering the fact that most games reward you for playing with freebies more frequently. Nothing on this site is free. You have to pay for every last item that you get and the new update is horrible. Take my word for it, play another merge game. There are many that aren’t scams! I could own Xbox in the amount of dollars I’ve had to spend just to get to a basic level. Deleting as we speak..RashawndaVersion: 2.12.901
I used to love this gameI used to really enjoy this game. Then the daily challenges became unattainable unless you play the game alllllllllll day or pay loads of money to continue adding energy. I don’t even want to play it anymore. The goals are just too hard and I liked that I could still make the goal and get my orders done casually throughout the day. Now I can’t even do one. Why should I even bother playing if there is no reward?
Also, the fossil that you get an order for at the beginning is also unattainable. I’ve done everything I can to look for it and still nothing. I am on level 27 and got the order for the fossil on level 1 or 2. I also can’t find any more maps to continue merging my treasure maps. I haven’t seen a treasure map since like level 10 or 11, so they are just taking up space that I don’t have.
AND you merge the suppliers that spit items out which should give you higher leveled items more frequently, but 99% of the items that come out are level 1 items, even though the supplier is at max level. So again, what is even the point if it is this hard and no reward?
I tried it, I loved it. They changed the game and I gave it a shot, but I don’t enjoy it anymore. It feels more like a chore now so I will be deleting it..ShaynaynerVersion: 2.12.150
I’m doneUpdate: I was trying to give the benefit of the doubt, but I can’t waste my time anymore. I can’t get the items I need to level up and the rest of the time it takes me forever to get the items to get tool chests. This isn’t fun anymore it’s become like a job. Thanks for the pointless updates that don’t help. The other day I finally complete a task that gave me 6 large toolboxes….I still wasn’t able to update any of the 5 outstanding buildings I have. I’m done. I loved this game. However I don’t think I can continue. I play the challenges to get toolboxes and meet the daily goal every day. Yet I still don’t get the parts I need to level up. The algorithm is not fair based on the needs you have. I have a million brick walls and yet zero wallpapers. This needs a better update and with all the tasks I complete I should have another option of leveling up. It’s frustrating to work towards so,etching for so long just to be disappointed. What is the point of an update with new buildings if I can’t even get to the buildings I have!! Also completely blocked from leveling up. I was a beta user and in half the time was a higher level than I am now after the reset. The tool boxes are way too random and don’t give what I need. I’ve been waiting on a plug for at least a month. I’m over this..MelavistaVersion: 2.4.0
FrustratingThis game would be so fun if it weren’t pretty much impossible to fill orders without spending actual real money. Their algorithm seems to be set to give you the items you don’t need when trying to fill an order. At first I thought this was just in my head but it keeps happening so that I use all of my energy and I have filled my board with items I don’t need. Then, when I delete some of those items to make space on my board, suddenly I get a customer that is ordering the very things I deleted. It is incredibly frustrating. The events are impossible to complete and can be somewhat confusing. They make it so you get super close to winning the event but in the end you either end up paying money to get more energy or you lose the event. Some people still lose after purchasing. Don’t even get me started on the cards. I will get lots of cards on any given day, none of which will be what I need to complete sets and win prizes. I will sit with being one away from completing a set on like 3 or 4 sets, get 10 cards and they’re all cards I already have. This game is impossible. Beautiful, vibrant graphics though. Takes too much of my time for me to never win anything. Will probably end up deleting it along with so many other players on this game..ConsciousCoraVersion: 2.12.401
Disappointing, don’t botherTLDR: Fun and addictive, they did well. But don’t bother, you can’t play and achieve things in a reasonable amount of time without spending money. That, coupled with the prices of the packages, makes it absolutely ridiculous to continue to support the game.
You could play for free, like many people do, and just achieve things over days or weeks or not at all… or you can pay $30+ like some people do, and achieve things over days or weeks or not at all… 🤷🏿♀️ or, finally, you can come to your senses and realize there are apps out there that want your money AND want you to enjoy and continue to play. I DELETED THE APP! Yesterday, I bought 4,000 energy and was only able to complete 10 of the 20+ daily tasks. YES, 4,000 energy spent to only achieve HALF the daily tasks. Lmbo… I provided feedback a while ago about the cost to complete basic things. That was the final straw for me. And to the developers, you could respond with your usual, ‘we’re sorry for your bad experience and we’ll take your feedback into consideration when making improvements,’ but what if you actually improved our experience?? What if you made appropriate changes that enhanced UX and turned these 1 star reviews into 5 star reviews, and significantly reduced churn?? Just a thought..IceColdnSunnyVersion: 2.12.820
Has potential...I, like many others, had my progress reset with The Update. I thought it was fun at first, there were new resources to get, and it was much easier to get the higher level item spawners compared to before. The idea of having building materials was also interesting.
However, they completely nerfed the drop rate of higher level items from the spawners. For example, previously, at a level 7-8 sand bucket, you could occasionally spawn max level sand castles and starfish. Now, you can only spawn level 3 castles and shells, max. Same with the picnic basket, and I imagine every other spawner. The devs claim that this new update will smooth the progression, so you don't have to be stuck on a level for days. That's not the case. Orders are MUCH higher level, asking for items at the end of the merge chain, and you have to spend days grinding for orders and building supplies. Do I think this is a ploy to get players to spend more money? Probably. Bad move, devs.
I want to give them the benefit of the doubt, so I'll keep the game until the next update comes out. Maybe this new version just needs to be balanced better. I think the devs should've just made a sequel, tbh, instead of resetting long-time players..Average potaterVersion: 2.0.6
Unfair Moderators in Trade GroupI LOVE this game. It helps me pass the time during my chemotherapy treatments and long drives to appointments. I used to have no issues with the trading group page on FB until I put up a post stating I can donate some cards. Apparently FB doesn’t like the words “donations” and they told me this so I fixed it but then it was never posted a flyer being fixed. Now a few weeks have passed and every day I put up a post to trade and it won’t be posted till 6-8 hours after. I brought this up to them and was told that it was because the moderators have a lot of posts to go through. I get that. BUT my posts did not take this like before as well as the fact that I’m pretty certain that NO ONE is waiting 6-8 hours for their trade post to be posted. This may not seem like a big deal but trading cards is one of the bases of the game. With my post going up at 12-1am in the morning, I am being hindered of this ability unless I scroll through EVERYONES post to trade every day. I’m pretty close to uninstalling this game mind you I DO put money into it so you’re close to losing business if this doesn’t get addressed and figured out why perfectly fine posts are not being treated fairly.AylondraMVersion: 2.12.1581
DishearteningThe original game presented a charming and enjoyable matching experience. However, the recent update has significantly altered the game's mechanics, making the completion of orders and challenges considerably more difficult without incurring real money expenditures. Production orders are now generated irrespective of the producer's retirement status, rendering the retirement storage feature obsolete. Additionally, auto-producers are now rendered ineffective unless they are fully merged. The updated Terms and Conditions stipulate that users are prohibited from exploiting or disclosing exploits within the game. It is unreasonable to hold players accountable and compel them to remain silent regarding functional oversights inherent in the game—responsibility for such issues lies squarely with the developers. This game modification appears to target a minority who enjoyed playing within the bounds of the game's rules, without engaging in cheating or hacking, and in doing so, it unduly penalizes the majority of the player base. This change seems to be driven by a desire to increase profits rather than enhance user experience. I was content to support the game and play it in my own manner; however, attributing fault to players for exploiting a loophole that is both technically and legally permissible is profoundly disheartening..AshfontVersion: 2.12.652
Was great until…I spent a pretty penny on this game ($200+ USD.) What I noticed is that the daily challenges for events give you either a 3 star or 4 star card pack, which usually won’t give any new cards after the 5th one you open. The chest only containing 2 star or 3 star card packs isn’t beneficial for progression in the events. Having several duplicates is irritating, especially since I can only give out 2 per day, and by the time I finish with the daily tasks I have already gotten 2+ duplicates. You can’t usually get golden cards, and having to pay for packs just to get a chance at getting them is annoying. Not being able to trade them is even more so, as I have gotten duplicates of the golden cards. Making card packs more expensive has turned me off on purchasing any. It has gotten harder to progress in the game itself as everything takes longer to complete. The coins is not the issue, but rather the toolbox. In the beginning, you could get 2-3 toolboxes, however now it’s only 1-2. If it takes more energy to complete, I think it should give more (ie 4-5 toolboxes). I’m hoping that the next update will bring some big improvements..Goddessmint1Version: 2.12.440
Should be ZERO stars nowTLDR - since the game ran an update, it is impossible to reach the daily/weekly goals without spending money a significant amount of money. Find a different game. NOT WORTH YOUR TIME OR MONEY.
I started playing this game early 2025. I REALLY enjoyed it and looked forward to the daily goals and special challenges. I joined the FB group & Subreddit to learn the game better & learned some ways to earn more energy and keep playing longer without spending too much. I normally do not spend money on any games but I would drop a few dollars each week to meet a special daily goal for a better prize. In July i had surgery and while recovering I actually spent $50, I felt a little bad/stupid but really enjoyed the game and looked at it as an entertainment expense.
The game recently updated and now I can’t meet a daily/weekly goal without spending money, I caved in today and spent money and still didn’t reach the level I needed for the prize.
The update has taken all the fun out of the game, it is just a money grab from the company. Good news for me, I’m not spending money and am spending less and less time each day on the game.
I see myself deleting the game soon and honestly will miss the aspects of the original game..PChu4Version: 2.12.1301
Fun until most recent updateIt’s fun but the app is too greedy. Why does the cost of energy go up with each successive buy? And now we have to wait for the kitchen robot to “recharge” even though it does not dispense power ups and costs energy which makes 0 sense. Never had to sit for the recharge before. Would’ve given 4 stars until this update which is beyond stupid..I can't think of a nickname!Version: 2.12.175
Good game but poor implementationsI wrote a few months ago that the game is fluid and dynamic until you reach higher levels. Well, it gets worse the further you progress.
I’m currently on level 69 and here’s the scenario: any task requires at least 300 touches. However, you start with a maximum of 100 touches. Considering you acquire one each 2 minutes, that means you’d need approximately 9 hours to finish a task if you don’t buy credits or watch adds and start from 0. If you watch the adds and purchase 100 touches for 10 gems, that’s still 3 hours. Considering there are daily challenges that vary on number of tasks to complete, it is highly unlikely you’ll complete them. Even if you were to splurge and buy items to complete the tasks, we are talking here on average 80 gems per item - considering less than 300 gems go for about 7 dollars… you can do the math.
The worst part is that the game doesn’t become more challenging or change actually. It just becomes unplayable if you don’t put money..HopeyfixVersion: 2.12.175
Don’t Bother: Money GrabThis game was a fun way to decompress, until it’s greed over took that. Progressing past a certain point is contingent on spending real money. Then, when you get to the Pottery Level? Well, might as well stop. WHY on EARTH would someone create something that you can’t delete and that you MUST use that takes away your energy, only to give you 1 coin after 4 energy losses??? I mean, why bother making the game if you’re just going to make it impossible to play at a certain point.
Waste of time. Don’t bother..DH3211Version: 2.12.251
Frustrating grind festI wish I had discovered Travel Town before the update the recent reviews talk about... they say the game got harder. I don’t know how it was before, but with the version I’m playing , it’s painfully difficult to level up if you do not want to spend money on microtransactions. At first, Travel Town is fun but when you get past lvl10, it starts getting tedious to the point where the game ceased to be entertaining and simply becomes frustrating. Not worth your time and certainly not your money..Naz107Version: 2.3.1
Harder since upgradeLet me start by saying that I totally loved this game and played it constantly BEFORE the major update. However, now I hardly play it. If I could give it zero star I would.
You need upwards to 30 (or more) tools to be able to upgrade the buildings, and they are very time consuming and nearly impossible to get. I haven’t been able to upgrade any of of my buildings in a month. I understand the concept of needing tools for the purpose of “building” your shops, but to need that amount of tools is seriously overboard. The costumers who have tool boxes as payment requires items that are very time consuming to acquire because of the wait time between drops. I have had costumers on my list for weeks that I can’t clear because I can’t get their order completed. The easy customer items that could be done within 100 moves do not give tool boxes.
I’m not sure how much longer I’ll keep this game. It feels more like a chore then a pleasant past time..SonicthegamerhogVersion: 2.4.0
Don’t pay to play!!! They’ll double charge you.This game is great. I really enjoyed it. I purchased a “amazing offer” of extra coins and diamonds for $9.99. Each amazing offer is available once, then you have to purchase the next offer, of higher value. I was double charged for this offer I purchased. It’s clearly a double charge, as on my receipt both charges are for the same offer, with the same 4 digit “offer code”. I requested a refund, only for the extra $9.99 I was charged, and was denied. I asked for a review again and pointed out the proof that it was a double charge, and was still denied. I’m happy to support apps and their development through purchases of additional advantages, but this app will outright steal your money and refuse to return it. Deleting the app and sharing my experience here for others. Buyer beware. I will be contacting my credit card to report the fraudulent charge..Becky0999Version: 2.12.652
Achat perduJ’ai acheté un bundle d’énergie plus cristaux pour avancer loin dans l’univers kyoto et l’app s’est refresh et j’ai perdu les dits cristaux et énergie et je n’arrive plus à retourner dans l’univers kyoto…… possible d’avoir un remboursement ??? J’adore le jeu, mais je trouve ça inacceptable. J’ai l’impression de m’être fait voler..Soft_messVersion: 2.12.172
They ruined it! 😞This USED to be my favorite game, but recent updates to the game make it impossible to complete daily tasks/challenges without spending money. Very disappointed. Will be finding a new game.HousleyAVersion: 2.12.651
Gone down the drainUsed to be fun, but the developers got too greedy. Recent updates make it so you’d have to spend a ton of money to ever meet the daily goals. If you do spend money, it increases the prices the next time - like $40 for an hour of gameplay. Don’t bother getting sucked in, choose a different merge game..Mrwa1983Version: 2.12.641
Fun but impossibleThis game has nice graphics and is fun to play, but the daily and monthly challenges are impossible to achieve. Even if one spends $ every day, the tasks just can’t be completed and rewards aren’t collected. There are better merge games that are more generous with rewards. Play those instead..BeautyandBrains721Version: 2.12.641
Don’t believe the adsI’ve played this game for quite some time now and had one friend play after an invite and I got one half of my bar filled. So I got my fiancé to play so I could get the 200 life it says you will get and never did receive it. False advertising for sure!!.Freaky Panda 69Version: 2.12.652
Love Hate RelationshipI have been playing over a year now. When I didn’t understand the strategy, I actually enjoyed the game. Ignorance is bliss. Then I was sucked into the game play and didn’t realize right away that I would not be able to complete most daily or weekly goals without spending money. I even asked for iTunes gift cards for Christmas so I could play. The graphics are adorable and the extra side game play intriguing, BUT the developers are greedy and “fixed” any sort of glitches or tricks making the game play even more difficult. For instance, until today, I was at least able to use the free energy producers to meet daily challenges, even though I’d spend gems to speed them up. Anyways, add the game at your own risk. You may become addicted and spend more money than you ever thought..AllhoneyVersion: 2.12.641
Very slow and painful to playRecent updates have slowed game play to a crawl. It is impossible to complete goals and even purchasing the Travel Pass didn’t help as I was unable to unlock a lot of the rewards. Don’t waste your money or time..WeseeewejijxkdhcjbcjvVersion: 2.12.1291
No money, don't play this gameIt was fun until you get higher level. An order can take 3-4 days to complete and it reduces entertainments. It looks like I have to log in everyday to finish my task rather than getting relaxed from work. I delete it too..Monica Dang 166Version: 2.12.652
Do not downloadThis game is a scam and when I went to delete it they would not. It’s been a week of me going back n forth with all the information they asked for and still they would not delete it. Never had an app do this. Plz avoid.Snipe for daysVersion: 2.12.641
Travel TownA little disappointing, fun game but uses up your energy & it takes forever to accumulate points. Makes it impossible to get the high points. Wasted time.LorGilchVersion: 2.12.632
Apple is showing incorrect ratingThis app has SO many 1 & 2 star reviews for a reason! Apple is not showing the real players opinion of this game based on old reviews that are no longer relevant ! They have changed the economy in the game making it virtually impossible to play for more than a few minutes every couple hours. Every moment of “game play” costs energy that does not last. You cannot beat higher levels in this game without wasting WEEKS of your time unless you want to spend money- to which there is no benefit. You get a one time chest or energy that’s gone in 10 minutes and you’re back in the same spot you were. GREEDY DEVELOPERS! DO NOT BUY FROM THEM..PikanuuVersion: 2.12.381
Update is terrible!I used to love the game and did actually spend money each month but I’m done with the game now. I don’t have all day to play and don’t want to. It’s impossible now. I’m done. I’m off to find a new game..Pink739Version: 2.12.641

Don’t download travel townI would like to file a complaint regarding the game Travel Town, which I downloaded from the Apple App Store over two years ago.
At first, I genuinely enjoyed the game, so much so that I spent money in order to play longer. However, over time, I noticed that the more money I spent, the more the game forced me to use energy (lightning bolts), pushing me to purchase more just to continue playing.
While Travel Town can be entertaining, I strongly believe the game mechanics are manipulative. The game appears to be designed to intentionally encourage repeated purchases of energy, making it difficult to progress without continuously spending money.
I have contacted the game’s customer service multiple times over the past year and have never received any response or follow-up.
I acknowledge that I spent too much money and take responsibility for my purchases. However, given the manipulative nature of the game, I feel this situation should be reviewed. I believe I should have filed this complaint sooner.
Thank you for taking the time to review my concern..Don2984Version: 2.12.1421
Funky chargesLoved this game for several years but whenever I made a purchase I was charged for additional purchases I did not make nor receive. I made contact via the app to address the billing situation and they told me it was Apple. Contacted apple they did a thorough investigation and assured me it was the app charging my card without my permission. Contacted via the app again and have been ghosted. This was a game I played for at least an hour everyday and was happy to make purchases, however the billing got so out of control and with no effort on their end to resolve the issue or even reply I deleted it a few days ago, which honestly sucks but I can’t throw away money I didn’t spend..Eastcoastgirl15Version: 2.12.1376
It’s a money grab and the ads are so offensive against larger bodiesThe ads targeting women and their bodies are SO offensive I had to delete the app. Terrible. The game itself : You end up spending A LOT of money of things that achieve very little for ahojt 30 seconds of play - obviously based on psychological tactics like they do for casinos but your odds of winning don’t even exist here . You win nothing and lose everything..Gypsy3171239Version: 2.12.1370
NOT FUN AT ALLDownloaded this game to earn some cash via a game tester app. Wow is this the worst game I’ve ever played. It’s definitely pay to win. Unless you spend an obscene amount progress will be extremely slow. Events are impossible to finish unless you buy in app purchases. Immediately deleted the game as soon as i cashed out from the tester app. Don’t miss it at all! Good riddance!.Tr1shhhhhhVersion: 2.12.1332

UNAPPROVED PURCHASES FROM APPReally enjoyed this game until charges were made on my credit card without approval. Apple refunded me for the 2 charges. I reached out to the game developers and heard nothing back. Very strange how 2 separate transactions went though without any notification or approval. As well as, what I apparently paid for- I never received in the app. Had I not looked into my credit card charges I never would have know. Please be aware and check any cards you have associated to your Apple account. It was only $20.14- but that would add up quickly..BEAWARE&CHECKCARDSVersion: 2.12.991

Greedy Developers have cost them another playerRecent update ruined the game for me. I enjoyed playing the game my way but the developers don’t want you to be able to play without spending money. So they updated it and took away options for people to play certain ways. If you have no patience for waiting 2 or more days to advance a tiny bit do NOT download this game.

The game doesn’t give the energy you need to win challengesIf not paying for extra energy there is no way of completing the challenges or races to win the prizes to keep moving. It’s a fun game but it will be uninstalled soon and I’m not going to pay just to make a little bit of progress throughout the day. Otherwise, prizes are like 10-40 energy and some orders they want you to make take hundreds of energy. Even playing all day and using gems to buy energy still not get you there. I would not recommend to download as it will be disappointing..MbbawpVersion: 2.12.652

Sucks!!The newest version of the game activates producers automatically leaving you no choice but to spend more and run out of room on the tiny board. There’s no strategy now except to cross your fingers and hope you can finish a level. What’s the point of having activation orders to activate a producer if the game by-passes those for you.
