each "day" i played, they increased the ads. Within a few in-game days, i would've had to watch 22 ads to continue playing. i felt like i was being forced into paying. A depleting energy bar would've been better. After looking in the shop, i realized it would be very expensive to keep playing. Although i love the cute concept and enjoyed playing, it's not worth it.

An amazing game, through and through. I enjoyed every single moment of it and didn't regret buying the whole thing even one bit. The only qualm I have from the game are its controls on Android which could have been better, other than that, a stellar product! I'm eagerly looking forward to upcoming projects from the studio and I'd looooove if The Palace on the Hill 2 ever gets dropped.

a really great experience, the storyline and everything else is perfect , the only problem is that you can play 5 to 10 mins then the character goes to sleep and you have to wait either 24 hours or watch a lot of ads. I know it's the developers way of earning and i respect that but the devloper should atleast reduce the number of ads we have to watch or the playtime can be increased. apart from that , everything's perfect bout this game! highly recommendable
