bugs fix!
Hey there. I just downloaded this game last night, because I thought it was gonna be like Fitness Club Tycoon. It is in most ways, but I really feel like once someone buys the ad free version, we should be able to get our own diamonds from the piggy bank for free too. Why do we have to pay $3 just to get the diamonds we earned. Y’all have a GREAT system in Fitness Club Tycoon. Bring it over to Truck Stop, and it’s gonna be a great game. Keep up the great work and I can’t wait to see future updates. Edit: another thing, why do we need to buy builders? We should be able to unlock them as we unlock everything else. Also the timers for things to be finished are WAAYY too long 4 hours just to have a small area to open up. Or I could pay 45 gold to have it done instantly. It’s hard to get gold when you have to wait for things to finish building before complete the other challenges. And same thing go for the research workers. Why do we need to buy those too? It doesn’t make since that we don’t just 1. Already have them. Or 2. Have to buy them and the limit on how many you can have is way too low. 4 for builders and 4 for research. And we have to buy each one. Let us unlock them like Fitness Club Tycoon does.
The game is pretty good in the beginning. There are 3 big issues for me. (I am someone who plays tons of idle/tycoon games. I also click on ads to get everything and move things forward) 1. The time it takes to upgrade properties or research is way to long. It would not be bad if we were able to upgrade other things at the same time. But no. If you want to upgrade faster you have to spend real money to buy that option. 2. The money vault limit is a major problem. You never have enough money to upgrade things because the vault limits you. You are also only able to upgrade it to a certain point. Then after that you have to spend real money to expand it so you are able to continue. The developers respond to complaints about it by telling people to basically buy with real money the upgrades. 3. All of the random ads that just pop up. I am one who is happy to watch ads when I click on them and get fun little rewards. I do this all the time. The random pop up ads in the middle of an games are just an interruption to the enjoyment. It also just shows how greedy to developers are. They force you to watch ads to move along in the game, they force you to spend money if you want to proceed further in the game, then they force random ads on you! These are the reasons I can not and will not recommend this game. And why I am warning you about it. I am also deleting it. So sad because it could have been a great game!
This game could be super fun but the developer decided to be greedy and make it to where he would only make money off the game. There is no reason for anything on this game to be $14 or $15. There is no reason you should have to buy workers or managers to do a job for $5 bucks. That’s should be something unlocked in game after achieving a goal or buying them with in game money. Watching ads to help you is a scam. Says you’ll get money and diamonds and only get money. The wait to to upgrade stuff is decent but if you want to do multiple you’re gonna have to spend $5-15 dollars of actual money before you can progress through this game at a decent rate. We are forced to watch stupid ads already….if you want us to buy something don’t make it over $5 bucks. It’s an iPhone game just as quick as we downloaded it we can delete it and go find another one where the developer is just out to make a profit off a mediocre game at best
I feel scammed by this game because I noticed that I am also experiencing the same issue as some have mentioned regarding the vault in the game that seems to have limited upgrades which prevents players from progressing and advancing further into the game as the game also has a task checklist that seems to also indicate limitations of the game because for me I still have tasks that the game wouldn’t let me complete due to the vault’s limitations so yeah honestly this game seems to be nothing but a scam despite it being an overall interesting and seemingly fun game however I wasn’t initially aware of the game limitations and so I ended up spending lots of good money for nothing making me feel scammed so I definitely won’t be giving this game anything but at least one star considering the major losses of my good money that I’m wishing I would have just saved to spend on something more worthy of spending good money on so yeah to any person who might read theses reviews honestly please just do yourself a huge favor and don’t spend any money on this game if you ever plan to try it maybe only unless if you don’t want to watch the forced annoying advertisements but other than that please don’t spend money on this game like I had made the mistake of doing.
Granted it’s a mobile game you can’t play it hours on end because your waiting for your truckstop areas to be built so pay to have more in game currency or get flooded with ads to pass it. Which is nice to have that but it’s more or less an idle game. There’s not much to do early game you pop in built or upgrade 1 area. Then hop off wait until everything is done. And ofc your currency doesn’t stay because you have to upgrade your bank. (Which doesn’t make sense) rather they get rid of that aspect. And you need staff to manage those areas and some you absolutely have to buy which is kinda rigged. But on the one aspect your waiting to buy another areas then there’s tiers but with the lack of bank space you are only able to have enough funds to build that one area and the rest goes out the window. If I was able to keep all the money I earned I’d be happier with this game but of course they need their money and for a Chinese game developer the English is pretty hard to follow.
So I got this game a couple weeks ago and it has been my favorite idol style game that I have played. To the point of spending a little over $25 in total for some gems, add removal and so staff. Worth it if you want to speed up progression. As I got close to finishing upgrading everything I realized I couldn’t make my Vault large enough, even with the paid staff for it and full upgraded. Then I noticed future requirements of vault level 11, which I couldn’t upgrade to. I figured that I just need to complete all the research that n everything else to load the next batch of upgrades and research paths only to find that I have reached the end of what has been developed. Then after looking through the update his found in over a year they have patched bugs but not created new content. This is infuriating considering a lot of people spent money on they have capped off the game. Would really like an update on when the caps will be increased and future upgrades will be added in. For now giving 3 stars because the game really requires you to make purchases to get anywhere. Your vault is never large enough and they don’t allow you to partially purchase upgrades. You have to have the total amount at one go. It would be better if you could at money to the upgrade you want and build it up.
This is the most incomplete game I’ve ever played. There’s only one truck stop. You can’t upgrade everything. Stuff you can upgrade won’t unlock trucks or linked upgrades as it’s supposed to. Ads are forced on you to advance, gain in-game currency, get boosts, upgrade, and often when you touch the screen you’ll get a random ad (even if you’ve just watched one). Ads are busted and many times you’ll have to close the app and restart; gaining nothing. The piggy bank has been broken since the beginning. You have to upgrade the vault to a level not even available unless you pay money to increase the vault volume so you can continue. The amount they are asking for to remove ads is atrocious. Freemium games act like they are AAA titles now with the rip off price gouging. Broken. Buggy. Boring. Unsatisfying. The high ratings have to be bots. How this game EVER GOT THROUGH THE APP STORE is beyond me. Apple is slacking!
As someone who is extremely picky with mobile games and I am constantly looking for a game that is worthwhile, this game is not worth the time or the money. The price for removing ads is atrocious. And even if you shell out the cost for no ads, guess what, you STILL need to spend MORE money for additional in game items. I can understand the need for ad revenue. But I need to enjoy a game for more then a day in order to determine if I want to spend the money on it. So I get the idea of including ads to complete tasks and for certain in game rewards when you first start. But to force a minute of ads on you EVERY 2 minutes is extremely frustrating and completely unnecessary. You can literally only push a few buttons and then exit the game. The entire point of this game is to shut it off and not play it. For those of you spending $30 on this game. This is a mobile game. Not a triple AAA game release. Save your money to spend it on COD or some Fortnite V-Bucks…
