HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (901 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.

★★★★★Oct 22, 2026
Limited play

You have to wait often in order to play. Each game takes more and more “payment” to play. And your fake money doesn’t add up fast enough. So you play one game then have to wait 30 minutes. Or you can pay money. People want you to play their game, for a cost.

★★★★★Oct 7, 2026
All my progress…gone

Logging on to the game on a new device with the same account reset all my progress. Balls, Lanes, Currencies, gone

Ad simulator 3,000

This is a joke right? I play one match and then instantly get loaded into a 30 second to 1 minute add that on multiple occasions never gave me an x to exit, so I had to close out of the game. If you’re that hell bent on getting ad revenue, just make it so you have to purchase the game initially. Please for the love of all that is holy get rid of the ads.
