This app is NOT worth it. As soon as I downloaded it and opened the app, I got hit with an ad. I didn't think much of it at first until I got past selecting my time zone which hit me with yet another ad. But when I went to press next, it kept bringing me to the ad that was shown on the bottom of the screen. It's so ad infested that it's annoying. Fix this.

I recently got an ad for this app again and thought that maybe this would be different than any other time I've had it but it wasn't. hell I even paid the 30 something bucks for the pro version and it still refuses to work properly. No matter what I do, any time I close the app out after playing a game it decides to crash and never lets me play my game again. meaning all my save data is gone. Don't waste your time. id ask for my money back but I doubt anyone would listen.
