Fast3%

12 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ A perfect mobile game, tons of content, challenging, smooth and easy to pick up and put down (actually pretty difficult to put down)
★★★★★ However it does start to overheat my phone after playing for a bit, as well as wear down the battery too fast; it needs to be better optimized.
★★★★★ Warning, tho, it gets addicting FAST.

probably the best mobile game ever. highly recommended to play with a stylus as it is literally the best way to enjoy this one. if you like shiny rocks like me check it out

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026

Brilliant

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

Very addictive.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

I feel like you're getting exactly what's on the tin here and I'm disappointed the word of mouth hype so extremely overblew how fun it is. It's a gambling game: You're going to fail constantly from bad RNG and there's no really satisfying hype moment of victory where you get so powerful you can no longer lose, it's always just waiting until RNG screws you and you restart. The balance between player skill vs. RNG just feels like the game could play itself. I'm not satisfied & I don't see the fun.
