Life Bubble - Survival & strategy game

So, this game has been a bit of a rollercoaster ride for me. At first, I was really enjoying it and having so much fun playing that I decided to buy the ad-free version. But then when I reached the 4th planet, I encountered a bunch of bugs that made the game almost unplayable. However, luckily these bugs were eventually fixed and I was back to being happy. Until I moved onto the 5th planet and was disappointed to find out that it was basically just a carbon copy of the 1st planet. It felt like they didn't even bother to change anything - it was literally the same thing all over again.

It's like a fun way to kill time without using too much brainpower. You dive in and gather lots of stuff, expand your base, then just wait for those timers before moving on. There might be some bugs to fix though - I noticed that in world 3, the zoom out feature doesn't seem to work properly. Whenever I try to do the resource overview zoom out, it freezes and I can't move the astronaut anymore. The only solution is to close the game and start over. But other than that issue, everything else still functions fine - it's just the movement control that gets stuck.

Yeah, this game is pretty fun for killing time. However, there are a few issues I've come across. The most irritating problem is that some of the ads don't have a close button after they finish playing, so you have to completely exit and restart the game. This seems to be happening more frequently. Also, there's no way to contact support if something goes wrong. That's why I wouldn't consider making any in-app purchases because if something goes awry, there's no way to get it sorted out without support. Games without proper customer support can be a bit risky, so it's good to be cautious.

The game can be enjoyable for a couple of days. However, once you reach the second map, things start to feel repetitive. It's the same map, same resources, and same objectives all over again. The only difference is that you get to keep the upgrades you've acquired, making progress quicker. I suggest giving it a try for two levels, and if you're not hooked, just uninstall it. Don't bother trying to advance to later stages. The ads are a bit frequent, but they're pretty standard for this type of game. They usually last about 5 seconds before you can close them out.

Oh man, the amount of advertisements in this game is insane. It's like an ad invasion! I can't even progress through the tutorial without being bombarded with ads, even for just mining my first ore. The "free to play" aspect seems more like you get a tiny slice of gameplay squeezed in between all the ads, or you have to buy the no ads store item. If they were going to make it this obnoxious, they might as well charge for it on the app store. Also, I have strong suspicions that the high star rating was either boosted by fake reviews or paid promotions because I doubt anyone would be okay with this level of annoyance.

I paid to get rid of ads and to quickly expand everything, but it turned out to be a total waste of money. I couldn't even get past the second level because the expander didn't register any items I put into it. The expander is blue, but the bubble didn't expand, so I couldn't progress because it's essential for the main area. Moreover, there wasn't an option to ask for help or report a bug in the settings. I'm going to request a refund.

The game controls can be a bit inconsistent, which can be frustrating. At times, they may not respond well or you might find your character walking too far. It's more enjoyable when you choose to watch ads that offer rewards rather than forced ones. However, there is a downside where some ads may cause the game to restart without providing any reward. It's disappointing that there are only two levels available in the game, which makes it feel incomplete and gives little motivation to continue playing.

I think there are just way too many ads in this game! It's so annoying that it makes me want to stop playing because I feel like I spend more time watching ads than actually playing. Also, the prices for in-game items and purchases without ads are just too expensive. I do enjoy the concept and the visuals of the game though. Hopefully, they can reduce the number of ads so that I can enjoy playing it more frequently.
