MAJOR unnecessary bugs – Smurfs' Village Review

I have been playing this game for over a year now, and ever since iPadOS 15 came out last fall, the game constantly and without reason whatsoever has MAJOR lagging issues. This shouldn’t be happening as according to the game’s loading screen, it doesn’t require internet access to play the game, only certain functions of the game require internet access, which I’m not able talking about those features. I’m talking about the core functionality of the game, planting/harvesting crops and the mini games (without the optional video bonuses). The lag is completely random whenever it occurs. I’ll tell the game to plant a type of crop and then it’ll lag sometimes and due to that lag, it’ll plant a totally different crop. Another bug I have encountered numerous numerous times, is when sometimes I try to collect experience or an item in a crater on the swoof planet and I won’t get the experience or the item within the crater in question and once that bug is triggered, if I leave the swoof planet and go to another area within the game, all crops in that second area will have its time for completion restarted (for example, if I have planted carrots in the main village after triggering the bug on the swoof planet, then no matter how much time has passed since I planted the carrots, the timer will say that the carrots won’t be ready for an additional 5 hours and I will have to wait whatever amount had already passed plus another 5 hours). The only way to prevent the timer reset in other areas is to force close the entire game and reopen, which I shouldn’t have to do in the first place.
