WHAT THEY COMPLAIN ABOUT · SHARE OF BAD REVIEWS
Too many ads46%

75 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ too much ads , delete this app waste of time
★★★★★ The game is just as it was in the ads - simple, relaxing, etc.
★★★★★ Now you have to watch twice as many optional ads to get the same rewards.
Price and subscription16%

26 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I understand the adds as that's how they make their money but hey, let's make more adds now for what everyone had for game play before
★★★★★ Good up until about airport 5, at which point there are more buildings than managers that you've unlocked, so you can't auto collect the money and dispatch the planes automatically anymore, you have to tap each plane…
★★★★★ the game is all good til you realise the X2 scam advertisement.
Lost data, sync, backup5%

8 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ ads is what messes game play for people deleted.
★★★★★ I gave up eventually and deleted the app as there's better out there.
★★★★★ Lost all login money because the game has a spinning circle to claim regular cash or double cash.
Bugs, things not working4%

7 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ offline earnings doesn't work occasionally.
★★★★★ the game is broken, you need to watch adverts to level up your teamworkers but the adverts don't load so it's impossible to play the game at level 1 when the builders require the upgrade...
★★★★★ bakvash upgrade not working
Worse after an update4%

6 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ This was my go to game until the last update.
★★★★★ Game use to be somewhat entertaining but the last update turned it into an even more add hungry game.
★★★★★ too much boring, same level again & again no changes in area & no new update
Missing features3%

5 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ no option to pay for ad removal rather...
★★★★★ Three thumbs down for missing stars.
★★★★★ It also has no option to pay for no ads.
Slow, laggy, battery2%

4 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ slow start then straight into unwanted adverts.
★★★★★ Managers to automate your locations are slow to get/upgrade to the required level that they actually automatically run and collect without watching copious amounts of ads.
★★★★★ was good at the beginning until it's repeated and slow progress and ads is a must to get more money..
Wrong or poor results2%

4 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ In addition, I refuse watching ads for the useless first currency.
★★★★★ nothing like the fake advertisement
★★★★★ The game was good at first, then you cannot progress without buying alot of items, i made about $20 worth of purchases and they are basically useless, Alot of progress is hidden behind buying managers and gems.
WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • The only suggestion - please make zoom out a bit further, to have a full overview of airport. 5★, Sep 21, 2026
  • you can use money earned to improve the airport but the passenger ramp and gas station get to max level very quickly but in comparison the cargo ramp needs a LOT moreoney to get to full level. 1★, Sep 17, 2026
  • you need a ridiculous amount of coffee to enable auto collect on most of your buildings, and the cost curve for the last few upgrades is just absurd. 3★, Sep 4, 2026
  • If the system were designed to incentivize players to watch ads in exchange for some kind of reward, it would be better and more engaging for longer. 3★, Jul 24, 2026
  • edit to add: It would be nice if the zoom could zoom out a little bit farther. 4★, Jul 13, 2026
  • Needs a bit of a rework. 3★, Jul 12, 2026
  • Each basic chest gets about 20-25 coffee cups and you need about 500 to level up each person. 3★, Jul 7, 2026
  • I just have 1 request - can you make the display smaller or give the option to fit more sections? 5★, Jun 18, 2026
