Idle Ball Race for Negative User Reviews

✓ I loved the game idea AND play until ...I found out that I had to subscribe to it, paying regularly! No! No game to me, can ever be worth that..RykThekreatorVersion: 1.4.4

✓ DisappointedNew game, so I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt. However, it’s very frustrating that even with the power ups, you lose most of the time. I don’t mine coming in after 20th almost every time, but I don’t think you should get such a minuscule amount of money every time you don’t place top 3. It makes it almost impossible to upgrade the power ups. Upgrades should instead be based on how many levels you’ve done. Oh, and by the way, too much on the ads. I don’t know what it is with everyone and ads nowadays. After every game? Seriously? I wouldn’t even pay to remove them with the game as is. The only reason I’m not going to delete it is because I want to see how it progresses..SincityvoxVersion: 1.2.1

✓ Good game, but...I really love the idea of this game, the simplicity of the graphics, everything. However, the ads make this game very difficult to play. I was in first place, then an ad just popped up out of nowhere and I had to wait 30 seconds before I could resume my game. In those 30 seconds I completely forgot about what I was doing and dropped down to third place once the game resumed, which was extremely frustrating. I have no problem with ads, I just don’t want to deal with them DURING MY GAME as they are distracting..Goats are the best 🐐Version: 1.2.1

✓ Ads ads adsI like the game it’s fun and addictive, but I do have to agree with other reviewers on the frequency of pop up ads. I saw where it gave me to option to avoid ads if I let you watch my usage but that doesn’t seem to work. If there were an option to pay my 2.99 to be rid of the pop up ads like other games I would probably be more than happy to pay for it. The frequency of the ads will probably kill my interest in the game. The same way it has done for other games do me in the past. When I get a game I want to play the game not spend every moment watching ads..Cheesybread1117Version: 1.2.1

✓ DisappointingIt was fun, I had the game for about a week and was playing everyday. But it stopped working all of a sudden, when you first start all the balls are in a little circle. At the bottom of the circle is a line that opens and lets all the balls fall out. The line at the bottom stopped opening for me, I would sit there for 4-5 minutes waiting for the bottom to open. Usually it would only take a few seconds to open. I even tried to use the special power up’s to get the bottom to open but it wouldn’t. After a few days of opening the game and waiting for the line to open, I just deleted the game because the bottom never opened no matter all long I waited..Nanami La RoseVersion: 1.2.1

✓ Fun but needs more.Hello! I’m going to keep this short. I love the game and it’s super fun but there is one player mode you should add. I would like to see a mode where all the different colors of marbles come together in one track and the last to finish is eliminated. Then the marbles move to the next track and the last to finish is eliminated all until there is one marble left. That would be a fun challenge. Thank you..Fart on me pleaseVersion: 1.3

✓ Pretty Cool and SatisfyingJan 24th: So, overall, I can tell it’s a new game. Honestly, I really enjoy it for what it is right now. The few things I would want to change are: 1) I wish I could make the balls my personal color, or maybe even add a pattern to it. 2) Add more upgrade levels (I’m already at 40 on all 4, max money earned, and max amount of extra balls). 3) I would partially like it if I could make money on all the places I come in (like 2nd. “3th” [lol, I don’t mind the typo in the game], 4th, and so on) not just the highest rank. It’s a great game, and I’m sure there will be more improvements and additions in the future, but please, please do not put pop-up ads or anything on it. Too many great games were ruined by ads, don’t let this be one of them. Jan 27th UPDATE: THEY PUT ADS ON IT! Of course they did. And now I am not playing the game anymore. You had a great game and now it’s ruined. I saw the banner ad and thought to myself “oh... maybe that’s all” but nope. Played a race and noticed you took 5 million out of my 1st place amount (210 to 205 now) and that there was a place where you could watch an ad to double the amount. Not that big of a deal either since I don’t care about doubling it. But just after 2 races, that’s about a minute of game play really, THERE IS A POP UP AD! As soon as I saw that ad, this game went from 5 stars to 1 star..RaiderRocketM-15Version: 1.1.0

✓ Fun but not willing to payI really enjoy this game, it is a fun way to just pass the time and I really enjoy the random chance that takes place in the game. However, like all great games it has fallen to the ads. Normally I would have no problem paying to get rid of ads, but 3.99 every week? If you think about doing that, you would essentially be paying to watch balls go through a track with the occasional user input, besides that it is just up to chance. I would have no problem paying a one time 3.99 payment to get rid of ads because I am on the app a good amount of time, but having subscription-based payment just seems like the greediest and most money grabbing way of payment. You offer other packages so that the cost is lower the longer of subscription that you buy, but once again why would I or anyone pay so that they can watch a marble go through a course with little to no actual user interaction. I get that you are still a business and trying to make money so that you can make profit and keep the game running, but I feel that you first need to add more to the game and build a stable client base before slapping that big of a price on it. It simply deters your audience from wanting to play your game in the first place..Atvaz78Version: 1.3.6

✓ ImprovementsI think that you should be able to see all of your marbles not just the one that I just in front. The game shouldn’t end until all of your marbles have finished. You should be able to select your race track that u would like not just any one. Less ads after ever race I have I see an advert it’s getting on my nerves. Don’t get me wrong there can still be ads in the game. The slime shouldn’t slow you down only the other marbles. There should be stuff u could buy not by actual money but money you get from the races. You could use that for customisation Like for: Racing maps you could customise one Your marbles And yeah stuff like that Good job on your game.Zedzz3Version: 1.3.3

✓ Another one of thoseAnother one of those idiotic half thought games. There’s a genre of iOS games where they just try to profit as fast as they can by showing you ads constantly because they know the game is so bad you won’t be playing it more than three times. OF COURSE they had the upgrades and the economy be exponential, in other words you always do the same thing, but they give you the impression of progress with some exponentially more expensive “upgrades” if you can call them that. All around this game is an example of all of the other Ad games that are pointless..LolbreakerVersion: 1.3.4

✓ AdsFun game just destroyed by ads and pop ups. I would pay a one time price for the game but a subscription is bananas..CoolHaywardVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Good game ruined with full ads between playsI’m guessing this game is based off of Marbles on Stream. I was looking forward to playing a non-stream mobile version of the game, I’m disappointed to see it’s riddled with ads. In addition to being able to watch ads to multiply money earned for a level (which I’m ok with) there’s also a full 30 second ad between every game you play. That is where I draw the line. Who can stand to play this sort of game? Where there’s this many ads? I have limits to my patience, you know! This isn’t how to create fans of your game, this is how to turn people away..LlamaScarfVersion: 1.2.1

✓ BbbbbbbboringRaces are great slime is bad why does it trap u 😭 and why can’t u build your own race 🥺😡😤.WolvesboiVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Waste of my timeI tried the ad preview of this game and I was like “okay I’m going to try this out”. Once I install, all that fun and happiness faded. Before the race, 85% of the time you’re the last marble down the hole when the race starts. Plus, the tilt control of the marble is terrible and isn’t even all that sensitive. Then we have the ads. Literally after every race you do, surprise! You get an ad to watch. The way the race maps are generated aren’t good either. If you think this is a good app, you are poorly mistaken. Don’t waste your time, I summed it up for you..JustSquabbieVersion: 1.2.1

✓ Too many addsRubbish.MamananakaVersion: 1.4.3

✓ You spend more time watching ads than playing the gameTo be fair, this game is very fun, super mesmerizing, and does a fun twist on an idle game system, it doesn’t give you a chance to pause because it’s always running. The balancing of the game is fantastic. If you are strategic in how you play you do well. If you do nothing you land in the middle, if you choose poorly you do poorly. I love a game where your performance matters and it feels satisfying to come in first place. That’s all I’m gonna say that’s nice about this. That is about 30% of what your time spent on this app is. The other 70% is gonna be spent watching ads. And the worst part is I can’t drop five or ten dollars on this game to make it ad free, which I would totally do if given them option, but there is no option to pay for no ads. The other part of this that is more insidious is that in order to do anything you have to watch an ad, after every other race an ad, races are about 20-30 seconds ads are between 15-45 depending on how long they take to buffer. With no pause button you’re watching an ad every other minute on this game. It’s like the whole thing is designed to make you watch ads, like its gaming some algorithm system. I would really like this game if I could just buy it for like 5-10 dollars but instead I am just forced to delete it and hope that nice idle games like this one do better in the future..FoxxybenedictVersion: 1.3.4

✓ Good at firstGame is filled with ads. Once you get to quintillion to level up, it becomes extremely unplayable. You can play but it's hard to justify playing when there's such a huge gap between leveling up, and how much money you make..WarriorvdgVersion: 1.3.6

✓ AdsThere are SO many adds. Every game I play on here when it’s back to the main page there’s an ad and it’s really annoying because I have sensory issues with ads and it’s SUPER annoying. Please do something about . Other than that the games awesome!.Canadian1234567890Version: 1.3.4

✓ Was fun, but...It was fun at first until I came across a game breaking glitch where the tip popped up, but it was also telling me to to tap something. I am unable to play the game because everything except for a small circle is shaded and the button to close the tip is in the shaded area :( I was having fun..Gloryfight409Version: 1.3.5

✓ Fun game, til I broke it...I started playing it a bit, and was having fun. But suddenly, a tutorial popped up to press the top left of the screen. And before I could react, a tip popped up talking about game mechanics and stuff, but here’s the kicker: the tutorial won’t go away until I press the top left, and the tip won’t go away until I press the “ok” in the middle. Both only activate in that spot, and doesn’t count if you click elsewhere. So this means I’m stuck on this screen since they both counteract each other. Even if I close the app and re-log, the tip and tutorial both pop up. So, uh, please fix..Geo_DominatorVersion: 1.3.5

✓ Copies from your clipboard without you knowingLiterally the first time I loaded up the game and any time after, it copies whatever I have on my clipboard, horrible game..TrolliantVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Not Paying For A SubscriptionI enjoy playing this game and the upgrading but I am not subscribing and paying $4 every week to take out ads and get the other benefits that I don’t really need. Please add an option where there is a one time payment ($2 - $3 maybe) to take ads out and I promise you you’ll get more money out of it. As of now I probably won’t play this game until that issue has been resolved. I remember why I stopped playing long ago..Wolverino5Version: 1.4.4

✓ Going up FridayThis game ok but I have never plaied it.WiggaboofVersion: 1.3

✓ IdleballraceIt could do better....Lauri the kitty catVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Ehh😕I bought this game hoping I could create courses that I could have marbles race on. Unfortunately, I did not get my wish.😔in this game you just go on random courses that are almost the exact same every time. You also have weird “powers” that kind of ruin the game because you play against computer and they don’t have powers Witch makes it unfair. Obviously like I said before, I wish you could create courses and you could choose how many marbles race. If I get that then it’s five stars.Person who plays snowball.i.oVersion: 1.3.3

✓ Not even a good gameAt first when I was reading the comments I thought this game was going to be super fun! The dev kept responding to the reviews and saying how the game will get better and with die down on the ads so I downloaded it ....... big mistake waste of time. How do people think this is a good game?!?!? I think this game is really bad. 1) bad camera angles: the camera angles make me wanna stop playing at some parts I can’t even see my ball! 2) misleading ads: The ads are totally fake maybe one is good but the rest where it’s like pick your own ball and there’s 3 pretty cool balls but there not even in the game! Well it’s late right now and I’m tired so I’ll stop here but sorry for being so mean but I just don’t think it’s a good game but credit to the dev it’s hard to make any game and he did that and many people like it so props to him/her..Fwc663837Version: 1.2.1

✓ It’s so bad it’s kinda.. never mind it’s history... it’s so bad-999999 stars, bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, fever won’t let me down a hole than ads than bot incident than saying what you should add ugh it’s giving a headache also add more abilities a whole game with 4 abilities? Nonono also it’s so luck based it’s trash..Gamebest1524Version: 1.4.4

✓ FULL OF ADDSUnplayable you have an add every second game ... I uninstalled after 15 min don’t waste your time..AlexaabdraVersion: 1.4.3

✓ So dumbHated Game. Deleted after 4 rounds do not download.Monicacrews3131Version: 1.3.3

✓ Freezing after every raceNeeding to restart the app every time a race finishes is annoying af but fun game otherwise.Xd memeVersion: 1.4.3

✓ AnnoyedWay to many ads.FinlayBellasVersion: 1.3.6

✓ Good game, but the adsIt’s a really good game, but there’s ads after every single game, even if we don’t want to double our money, I could understand ads if they were every 3-5 games, but every game is a bit over board, it causes the game to get very boring after a while because you spend just as much, if not more, time watching ads as you do play the game itself.Awesome_elVersion: 1.3

✓ Annoying and not fairI’m trying to get to the end of the race but every time I use one of my powers they just get wasted and I get thrown to the back of the race. I know that I might be overreacting but the problem is that I have powers that sometimes come in handy, but the worst is that they take too long and the dash effect sometimes throws me backwards and not forwards like on that moving machine. It sometimes throws me up but then just I get teleported to the back and I barely get any money which I think is NOT FAIR. Now, some people might think it’s not fair that you would have powers, (considering the other balls in the race) in the race which is not what really happens in a race but then again, the powers: Freeze, Fever, and Slime take too long. What should happen is that when you upgrade it, it’ll get faster, but it doesn’t! All I’m saying is that, PLEASE..PLEASE!! Help this game with the power ups, other players, and the ACTUAL PLAYER! Because it’s so hard that I might have to delete it which is why I’m making a report. Just, please..Manmannn1725Version: 1.3

✓ Continuously asking for additional access to my information seems very sketchyGame is fine, it seems a little thrown together but it’s enjoyable enough I will play for a few days The main problem I have is that every single time I open the app it has this big pop up that asks me to allow the app to mine my data. The hide it behind a bit of ambiguous language but I honestly have no idea what I would be signing over if I approved it. It makes the whole app feel like it’s some kind of scammy malware..Jokerjoe12Version: 1.3.5

✓ AdsI didn’t download this game to watch ads, there is way too many. One every 30 seconds of seems.Biglongshaft69Version: 1.4.4

✓ Ok but...The game is great there is just a couple of things I want and probably other people too. First you should lay low on the ads. If i want to use an ad to upgrade my thing then I will, but I have to watch an ad just so I can upgrade it more. Second one is less important but still annoys me. After the game it should give you the option to upgrade, wait or play another game, not give you 5 seconds to get ready..Jama lamaVersion: 1.3.6

✓ Who wants this IdleSo I was going to send a very informational review but right when I was done I accidentally clicked out of it and I had to restart ( The App Store should fix that) Anyways, I was thinking that you should let the players have more control to the ball because it’s basically a big jackpot. For example, I was in first in a race and the ball in second bumped into a wall right before the finish and got some sort of boost. So I came in 2nd, and that’s not right since you barely ever get to come in first. I think you should work on this and not put my review aside. 😊 10 mis later: I was looking through the reviews and this game is crap 😡😡😡 so now you know why I have it 2 stars now. I can agree that this is chaos with the ads and I know you do it for money but make another game if you need more and don’t go being cruel. FIX THIS GAME DEV. FIX IT. I am not spending that much time on this game any longer..RedsaqwVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Not badDecent game but needs more customization and cold be less doing nothing other than clicking.PhorxVersion: 1.4.4

✓ Ads!!There are so many ads. Making me crazy.TangyCheeseVersion: 1.3.3

✓ Addicting Game, but too Ad heavyI’ve been playing this game for about 30 minutes now. I’ve gotten up to Silver League II. I’m going to stop playing and uninstall it simply because of the fact that there is a video ad almost every single time a race finishes. It makes you not want to continue playing the game. I understand it is how you guys get some revenue, but please try and limit it, and you’ll find more people continuing to play it. Thanks.Z Tornado zVersion: 1.2.1
