Still a great game after all these years! Just wish we can add more floors without adding friends!

Love this game. Wish it could be played offline as well. Lobe the art style and the funny things the little people do.

Very nice and well-developed game. However, there is something missing in this game, which is adding random friends. They forced you to get another player's ID, which is hard if there's no one around you playing the game. Since adding friend is crucial for this game, the missing "adding random friends" menu is very annoying and blocking me from proceeding. Please fix this. Other than that, this game is perfect.

As per usual from Kairosoft, a fun and enjoyable game. However, the premium currency, Coins, really put a damper on things, unlike their other games. You earn them at a significantly slow rate, which means you progress a lot slower unless you buy a large amount, and they are expensive. Other than that, it's a fun game. Incredibly enjoyable and super cute!

Extremely disappointing considering I've played numerous Kairisoft titles and enjoyed most all of them. But this... this is so buggy you can't even start a new game. I expect better than this. "Make sure to allow connection to network and check your signal quality". Every. Single. Time. Maybe they'll eventually fix this so I can post a proper review. Until then, 1 star and don't bother downloading.

Has capacity to be a great game, but there are real issues with making progress within your first 20 hours of the game. You are pretty limited in options unless you use your limited gold coins to unlock extra items, it's super difficult to get your game ranked well, and overall it gets frustrating and repetitive. I would have preferred to pay their typical $4.99 for the game with more accessibility instead of it being a daily access type of game.

I'm not sure what happened here, kario are awesome, but you really messed this one up and it was easily one of the best ones I've played, you went and halted progress on the fact you would need friends to send you gifts at certain levels, you haven't added a friend system either, so there's no way of even adding friends unless it's a real friend you know and hang with in life (or search the internet non stop) even then there is a limit of just a mear 10 friends, such a stupid move, disappointed.

All things considered, great game, but definitely not Kairosofts best work. Premium currency always drags down a mobile game, imo, which is fine if it's decently grindable, but the fact that it rarely is makes it questionable on its worth in playing. Don't get me wrong, I still love you guys, have for years, but I just felt it was a misstep, that's all 😁

I enjoy this game a lot. Its not overly confusing, the graphics are cute, I like the "battle" sequence while making a game. I personally think certain parts take a long time, like coming up with ideas to create a game, or upgrading the game cards to make them unlimited. I get it though, its a free game. Coins could be slightly easier to get though.

It's VERY slow paced compared to the latest titles, and the need of friends and Kairo Land (which I can't download because of memory issues). I've accepted that I'll only have two floors on my company, and I may never have real meetings, because of the lack of medals. I just like the subject of the game, and that's why I'm giving two stars. Few game managing games are done, most of them are idle games.
