so basically, the only reason why I don't give it 5 stars is that if you get suspended you either have to have a friend to help bail you out of it or just sit and get in trouble, it gets annoying after a minute because if you don't have someone who plays it then your outta luck. it's also the reason as to why I can't finish the chllange since it needs me to send a recommendation letter or whatever for the badges. clearly they are doing this to promote people to join their app more but still.

This game is pretty good although the mechanics are a bit confusing. I am wondering what happened to the old hoosegow as I loved that game, will it still get updates?
