Ratings and reviews

There used to be an instability problem before my phone updated to One UI v6, then it left, and now its back. I sent an error report email to the developers about the instability and another glitch I found, but neither have been taken care of. Its a really good incremental game with hours of gameplay! The biggest problem is that it crashes even if I'm not actively using it. I understand crashing from trying to handle user input, but from just running by itself?

Let me start by saying that this is absolutely a 5 star game. However, an update a while ago (v2.0.6) started crashing the game quite reliably, causing you to lose all progress since you last exited the app. However however, the most recent update (June 2024) didn't fix the crash bug, but did fix the autosave feature - so now when the game crashes, you only lose about minute or less of gameplay. It would be nice if the game didn't crash, but at least the game is playable again.

Playing on Google Pixel Fold running Android 14: Had it crash twice while trying to multitask (open different apps, compose messages, etc.), but the game saved my progress both times. If not swapping app screens, game is very stable. The touch interface could use some tweaks to its touch detection, and a dark theme would be appreciated, but otherwise happy I can Finally enjoy the game.

What's new

Fixed a bug where game did not save as intended and progress could sometimes be lost on crash or exit.
