One 30-second ad for every 90 seconds of play
Mwdallas
I think the title says it all. To start playing in a sector, which is when you start with three lives, you must either sped “warp crystals” or watch a 30-second ad. You can not disable this. You cannot buy warp crystals, as they must be earned in-game. You will get 25 of them for linking with Facebook, but they’re gone in just five or six play sessions, which are only a couple of minutes each. One game session is three lives. It’s an arcade shooter and so you die fairly quickly, especially when learning the game. After you’ve lost two of your three lives, you must choose to spend 100 earned coins, different from warp crystals because you CAN buy these. If you don’t have 100 of them, you MUST watch a 30-second ad. They don’t even rotate the ads well, so you see the same ad three or four times in a row. So you can’t play your third or subsequent lives without spending hard-earned coins, and you cannot start the game without spending non-purchasable warp crystals. I timed it. I averaged one 30-second ad per 90 seconds of play. Then I bought 40,000 coins, thinking that’d eliminate the requirement to watch an ad to start a sector. Nope. Nada. I love the game. But if I can’t buy my way out of the horrible ads, I won’t play it and I’ll tell my friends not to play it. I mistakenly shared it with one friend, an arcade game nerd. She told me she can no longer accept recommendations from me because the ad-ware in this game is absurdly intrusive. Fix it and I’ll play. I’ll even change this review. For now, though, this game is horrible. Unplayable
Fun and frustrating
Kemoaaaa
Nice game , the issues are 1- advertisements videos too long, you could shorten them at least 10 seconds. It take the fun out of it. 2- it doesn’t make sense that I have 2 lifes and when I need to use my second life I have either to watch an ad or pay 100 coins!!! In the middle of the game I have to watch ad to get my second try are you serious??? Or pay 100 too much coins aren’t easy to get you know, I get that you need to make profits but not this way, I have 2 lifes so I should be able to use both without extra coins or ads . You need to fix this
Too many micro transactions

Would be better as a pay to play game. Ads are intrusive and ruin the gameplay
But...

Good gameplay and awesome refresh of a classic, but having to stop for ads or pay to use next life is a bit much. Frustration, delete and find something more playable
Dont buy

This guys are thieves, you spend 4 bucks for the game and still having the commercials and no access to the game, what a joke
Good game but no new sectors.

I’ve been playing this game for a while now and finally got the pac man ship. It said new sectors but I’ve yet to see any. If it had new sectors I’d give it 5 stars.
