Too many ads23%

21 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I was playing this game until I saw your absolutely fraudulent advertisements on another game.
★★★★★ You're inundated with pop ups asking you to buy packs and watch ads - if you close them it leaves a red exclamation mark on your screen while you're playing.
★★★★★ I really tried with d game restarting everytime u watch a add but nah couldn't take it no more had to delete fed up looking to play astra squad and animal valley at least after watching there ads d game doesn't restart…

No customer support6%

5 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ I don't support criminals.
★★★★★ Playside has also ignored my multiple customer service requests sent directly through their website's contact form, which normally isn't surprising with these kinds of games, but I did not expect that from Playside.
★★★★★ I've not recieved any support email responces and Im 100% certain they'll just gave a responce to attempt making it look like they're doing something..
Limits, credits, locked features4%

4 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ have to pay just to get past all the ads.
