HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (454 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.

★★★★★ We love this game and going ad free was definitely worth it because the ads will drive you crazy.
★★★★★ I paid the 10 dollars for the ad-free option and it's worth it but could there be an update soon so I can play again please?
★★★★★ There's always a way to get rid of the ads - but if you think it's too expensive to do so, you can always continue playing it for free.
Looks great1%

2 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ This game is really good but unlocking other places in the building are so expensive I wish you could make it low money so it's way easier to unlock the places in the building and getting offline earnings is so much…
★★★★★ It is gonna be called “Kids Time” like “Kitchen Time!” To round it up, it is GORGEOUS, FANTASTIC, FUN, and just so AWSOME!!!

Nein danke

Finde keine Wort dafür

★★★★★Jul 23, 2026
An sich grandioses Spiel

Tolles Spiel das Beste vom Entwickler leider aber keine Updates mehr und nur 3 Studios ich hätte mir mehr gewünscht deshalb nur 4 von 5 Sternen.

★★★★★Jul 8, 2026
Love this game, but why no update?

I really, really do enjoy this game. It's one of my favorites, but there's been no update for the "coming soon" portion and I feel the need to delete it because I have no reason to play it after I've maxed everything out. If the developers see this, please update the, "coming soon", it's a fun game and I can't seem to find any other that's remotely similar or as high quality as this one. 10/10, no futher notes.
