HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (72 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. 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.

★★★★★ Why is the subscription so expensive!They give you no benefit?
★★★★★ The description says that you can CHOOSE to subscribe to support them, but after 3 days the app is useless without a force sub to… $6.99 a week $12.99 a year $30 permanent.
★★★★★ I opened the app to pay 10$ to just play games I didn't pay because I just have delta emulator NOT WORTH THE 10$ PRICE TAG
Too many ads16%

★★★★★ Gris si the most annoying app ever it puts 50 ads and you can't cant set anything up, can't import anything can't play at all.
★★★★★ Pls change the monthly fee thing for people who can pay for it like for no ads and that's it I just wanted to play doom.
★★★★★ Couldn't play my games unless I paid, app is useless without payment, what's the point of these advertisements if you won't even let me play the game without paying you??

Limits, credits, locked features9%

17 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ emulators are supposed to be free and always should be free
★★★★★ There is no reason for me to have to pay for a month fee so I can play retro games, I may be 14 so these games are like old to me, but I love doom and I don't have anything else to play it on and I was hoping to play it.
★★★★★ Do not buy it to use because you're playing games for free and the only reason why I downloaded it was because I didn't think before I downloaded it and you need to pay $50 a year just to emulate games that you and you…
Crashes and freezes9%

★★★★★ Couldn't play my games unless I paid, app is useless without payment, what's the point of these advertisements if you won't even let me play the game without paying you??
