HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (49 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

WHAT THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT · SHARE OF BAD REVIEWS
Price and subscription26%

9 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ It's a funnel for your money disguised as a mediocre economic simulation.
★★★★★ The tutorial does not help at all and it is difficult to even figure out how to start earning money.
★★★★★ I shouldn't have to use my gems at all to raise money.
Bugs, things not working14%

5 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ This game has tremendous potential and seems like it could be an amazing simulation game. However, for those who are blind or visually impaired using the iPhone voiceover feature to access the game, there are buttons…
★★★★★ If you start a business and your first idea is to go into debt you've failed as a business.
★★★★★ Is there a bug that was released?
Missing features9%

3 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ There's no way to get inventory filled so I can't sell any product in this game.
★★★★★ I was skeptical of other reviews but they are right, no option to fire is a game KILLER
★★★★★ The game is way too hard and there is no way to profit because you're in debt from the start.
Wrong or poor results6%

2 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ It's pretty easy to ruin the gameplay for yourself as well because of how ridiculously easy it is to cheese this game for big bucks, half the features as well are extremely weak or completely useless to you for way too…
★★★★★ Maybe I am just doing it wrong, but I don't really know what I am supposed to be doing
WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • Game could be good but needs a lot of work. 3★, Dec 19, 2024

  • I should have other means to make money in the game before I hire such an expensive person. 1★, May 30, 2022
  • It would be great if there was a walk through tutorial (a better one) that helps you out in the beginning so you don't go into debt when you hit “next week”. 1★, Aug 12, 2021
  • I don't think the game needs to be any easier but I wish you could fire employees. 4★, Aug 29, 2020
  • That should include marketing too because marketing is not included in it. 3★, Jul 21, 2020

★★★★★Jun 22, 2025
Kind of confusing

I’m 10 years old and this game is pretty confusing. It’s definitely not a 4+ game. It doesn’t really give you much clues and ideas to what you are trying to do.

★★★★★Apr 20, 2025
Ok

Its ok

★★★★★Apr 19, 2025
it’s great

the best game I’ve ever used!

★★★★★Apr 14, 2025
Idk

It’s alrighty

★★★★★Dec 19, 2024
Good but ghosted!

Has this game been ghosted? No info online except for a 4 year old Reddit post. Game could be good but needs a lot of work. A discord would be great!

★★★★★Nov 23, 2024
Help me

I hear its good but I just cant figure it out, way too complicated and hard please fix. If ur gonna make a realistic candy game make it so that you get a tutorial on a easy version and then once you got 10k it throws you into the actual game a harder version of the first game kinda with no tutorial. This game has MASSIVE potential and there is no sound just plain, and devs please make it easier overall. I am young like elementary school young and that might be the reason its hard but please make it easier overall.
