managed to ruin it
i don’t know how but when i first played this game i managed to ruin it by spending the money on classroom seats and after it tried to give me the tutorial and i cant even go through it bc the money gone. now everytime i try to redownload the game it says 0 moneys and the tutorial tries to run but i cant do anything. really wanted to enjoy the game but i messed up.
Payment
Why after a few levels you have to pay real money to upgrade money vault?
Hi
Love it but why is every thing so expensive I have to pay 16,000,000 cash (in game) just to study for a department
Good game but…
This game is so fun but the building process takes forever it’s actually making me bored of the game and I don’t wanna spend almost 6 dollars just to be able to have more builders. I would be fine with having ads to speed it up instead of constantly having to wait hours for it to be done for one part of a building.
Good but stops working at one point
The game was good at the beginning, competitions were good and worked, missions helped me understand what the next thing is to do, and wait times were not long. However, the more buildings you have and the more updated your campus is, I am not able to win competitions anymore, I can even get fourth place. Also, graduates are only good at the latest subject you unlock so it is not equally distributed along the graduates. I do everything, I get the highest ranked professors, I change the timetable, some buildings are at max level for everything and yet it doesn’t fix the issue.
Total Fun
Best Game Ever!!!
It didnt open
When i open the app its didnt really open its always continue
Great game but some suggestions
First of all, It takes FOREVER to upgrade buildings it would be more enjoyable if reduced. Here’s two possible ways to do that 1. Reduce wait times 2. Get fun maybe academic mini games to play to speed up the time if you win make the mini games winnable. Secondly, I would like if you could switch the gems and money from dean’s building balance. Here’s two ways to do that 1. Rebirth 2. Make a direct transfer of gems to money vice versa.
Unbalanced and unfair
I love a lot things about this game, it’s a nice and casual distraction. But one thing that drives me up the wall is the lack of apparent playtesting when it came to balancing knowledge and competitions. The more I build my university, the harder is it is do well in student competitions. At a reputation of 8,000+, pretty decent professors, some really good, maxed out cafeterias and gym. But no matter how I schedule my classes and balance the stalls is? There is nothing I can do to even get 4th place anymore. My best students are ranking at the 240s and it just keeps going higher and higher despite my best efforts. I sunk a lot of money in this game, is this just a trap to siphon more money to roll for professors. 120 gems for a CHANCE to get the best professors. Is that the goal here?
Great Tycoon game! But there isn’t a whole lot to it.
Don’t get me wrong, I love this game. I have always wanted to find a college tycoon my whole life and this game was it right here. It has amazing gameplay, didn’t see a lot of glitches/bugs, it’s a great game. But there are some reasons why I don’t give it a 5 star. Firstly, there isn’t enough buildings for you to build, especially residential buildings. Second, there isn’t enough subjects for the game to offer I would like to see stuff like Chemistry, biology, you probably know where I’m going with this Codigames? Third, I really kinda want this tycoon to let you choose where to build, how how those buildings will look like. Fourth, why is a “Academic Year” only one day? I would at Least have it last for 200 in game days. And finally, can the players at least get an opportunity to get more than one builder team in this game. Like over time you can get up to eight, but to double that, people would need to pay twice as much as the price to get all of the teams, right now. In summary, this game isn’t terrible and isn’t the best game, I’m just saying that there isn’t a lot and this game is kinda unfinished. Thanks for reading this! :D Robloxlover81
cool
just cool
Worst game ever
If you delete it when you download it again, all of your progress will be saved, which I do not like because I got stuck at $200 and it doesn’t get you into over zero dollars an profit
love this game but
I honestly love this game a lot! I played through the entire game and had so much fun doing it- I would really love to replay the game and start from the beginning since I finished but once you play it once you can’t start over which is really frustrating. I have redownloaded this game twice now in hopes they added a reset feature but there is still no option for that.
Was entertaining
The game is fun at the start but waiting for buildings to finish being built gets longer and just get more boring cause no one is spending 6$ to get another building team.
Good game but..
it’s an amazing game, love every aspect, but the waiting time? It’s hours. I don’t have enough gems for this. I absolutely love it, but I may delete it due to waiting time. Please consider it because I really love this game just the waiting time… would have gave a 5 if the waiting time wasn’t hours long. Thank you for this amazing game but please the waiting times… you wouldn’t definitely get an amazing rating if this changed, Kaynala :))
V📚📚📝✏️very fun game and i got 5 suggestions for future updates this game
The game is very fun and i really like it even doing the construction uogrades takes time but i think they should add some majors and additional buildings. 1. Add the Nursing program which it’s a very competitive major and it can help students study to become a Nurse 2. Add a Student Union so people can hangout, socialize and study. 3. Add theatre arts major so students can do drama class and pretty much anything. 4. Add bachelors of Automotive so students can learn how to become a Mechanic and get ready the workforce, number 5. bachelors of Welding. it will benefit students and teach how welding theorys like constructions and many more. i highly recommend adding those programs it gives the game a big boost and popularity
Horrible!?
When I first played the game, I thought I would be a school principal. I thought I would be making the best school in the world instead of making the lame in school in the world cause every time I login I always lose money. What is that problem with and I mean, like why why am I losing so much money that I login linto the game? I looked at it and it was horrible. I’ve been losing like $200,000. What is wrong with this game it now?
Short classes
Please increase the time students spend in class! Their time in class is very short, and most of the time, by the time a student reaches class, the class is over.
No update
This was such a good game until the developers stopped working on it. It would’ve been better for them to just shut down the game instead of leaving active and do nothing to it.
Couple glitches
So something strange is going on with the timers in the game when you click on a particular building the timers go there normal rate but when you back out the timers freeze and everybody that is doing something is frozen in time. Also the support page is a little broken.
Fun Game With Lots of Potential
Great game with plenty to do at the beginning. But once you complete everything, there’s not much left except waiting for updates (and there hasn’t been one in over a year) and the weekly competition. The weekly event also needs more variety instead of just the book fair. Still, it’s a fun game if you enjoy this type of game.
Not worth it
Don’t spend money on this!!! They do not update it anymore so upgrading wouldn’t be worth it.
BUGS NEED TO BE FIXED
I was playing the game and I started construction on the arts building it was 8 hours and I went to sleep then when I logged on the next morning it was just starting
would be great if it wasn’t broken
It was delightful at first until all the bugs started to show. I started a 6-hour construction project last night before I went to bed and woke up to the construction just starting. It’s an interesting concept, but the idea that you need to pay actual money to make it past essential work is incredibly frustrating, not even mention that the actual idle feature, aka the main draw of the game, is completely broken, and devs don’t seem to care
Update Please
When is the next update!!!!!!! 😊😊 It has been months.
Best game yet!
All I really have to say is this fame is really addictive and I love it.
Bad
It looked like my new favorite game at fist but then it tells you to upgrade your class and it starts you with 0 dollars and you are stuck on that screen with prevents you from playing
Stadiums
Missing a baseball stadium but don’t make the field inside
Great Potential
I love Tycoon games. This one, however, I can’t seem to advance without putting money into it. I refuse to continually pay to play.
To expensive
Love this game but the only thing that i really don’t like is how you have to spend real money for more workers its kind of dumb you could at-least make it a lot of money to buy them but 1 worker when you have to wait for 8 hours means i cant even play until that worker is finished so thats the only thing id change about this game
Suggestions on what to add.
I know you haven’t worked on this game in a year but you can still add departments and make it fun. Under Humanities you can add the Department of Education where people can go and be teachers. Under Science you can add Department of Biology Under Art you can add the Department of Photography and you can add modeling under that. Under Social Studies, you can add the Department of Political Science. Have debate halls and the like. Under Technology you can add the Department of Engineerining. Under Sports you can add Baseball. I hope you come back to this game it’s a nice fun pastime.
please read
Crashes 50% of the time, unnecessarily long construction times, and overall lifeless game.
Needs more
You could add Biology, Chemistry, and Medical into the game
Doesn’t work
Had this game in a previous phone and absolutely loved but wasn’t using it as much and deleted. In a new phone I then tried to download it again, it worked and I began to go through the tutorial. However, when I reached the point to build the first classroom my money pot was empty so I was unable to, but it was still in tutorial mode so I could do anything else. No matter how tenant times I refreshed or deleted and downloaded again nothing changed. This may just be me being dumb, if so I would like a device in how to fix it.
Greedy app
Fun until I realised you have to pay £6 per construction worker… that’s just being greedy. There’s 4 in total and you can’t construct anything else until that one builder is done building. It’s a shame because I loved prison empire and downloaded this game to wait for the new prison update. I happily paid for things in prison empire because they were *extra* things. I even paid for no ads. Making me pay for things that I need in the game is greedy. I’m not paying for construction workers that’s just ridiculous. And for that I won’t be paying for no ads in this game. Will probably delete when the construction stacks up.
i love this game
please build more buildings
Really bad
I bought the wrong thing in the tutorial and I’m stuck with no money to get what the tutorial says!!
My Fav Idle But Want More
I’ve played a bunch of idle games, including others by this same developer, and this one is easily hands down my favourite one. There’s just no competition or comparison. It feels like a realistic experience and the time investment is a perfect balance for an idle. It’s the first game I reach for when I wake up, I want to check on it multiple times through the day but it’s not too needy and I’ll set up a lengthier build and research overnight. I just want a lot more content on the way!! I’m worried about what happens when I finish building the current buildings. There’s no point in opening up the game if there’s nothing left to do. I’ll be devastated so I really hope they’re working on an update and some more new departments are coming soon.
Tutorial
I’m stuck in some sort of infinite loop where the tutorial starts speaking about competions but makes me enter but I don’t have enough money to enter and can’t exit it
Needs Expansion
This game is in desperate need of expansion. I feel like I would be willing to invest in another builder if there was anything left to build.
Great Game!
It’s a great game and I have a really fun time playing it, I just wish that there was a way to reset your progress even though you’ve linked your account.
Bad
When I first started playing it looked like fun. The issue is that when you go over the electric limit it’s too late and your stuck with an expensive fine. I managed to buy a bunch of classroom upgrades to get out of the red and then realized I can’t even upgrade my electric because I have to do a bunch of other steps first. Then I accidentally bought some upgrade that skyrocketed my electric and sent me back into the red with 200 dollars to my name. I can’t join an event to get money and upgrade and I have no way of pulling myself out of the red which mean my game got completely stuck…
Rebalance Building and Research Times
I love all of your games, I really enjoy this particular style of "idle" game, so of course I got this one. It scratches the same itch as the others. Only thing keeping it from being 5 stars, IMO, is that the research and building times are way too long, way too early in the game, especially given that students can't use facilities during upgrades, and there's no way to speed up the construction and research aside from spending gems, or increase construction/research slots without spending real money, even temporarily. This is a major obstacle to gameplay progression, especially in early-game when you have only a few departments and classes for students to attend, and severely affects graduate scores. I think the gameplay progression would be massively improved if the construction and research times were significantly shortened for the early game facilities and skills, or if there were some way to shorten/speed up construction and research times without gems (perhaps a research skill, and/or watching ads); additionally, the flow of gameplay would be massively improved if students were able to use the existing parts of the building during department/building upgrades, not to mention that this would be more true-to-life; in real life, people can still use the rest of a building during renovation, just not the part that is actively being worked on.
can’t get past competition tutorial as 0 balence
cant get past competition tutorial as0 balance and cant seem to rest game
I went bankrupt
Can u restart?
Add some Medical and Nursing departments
Please add some new medical and nursing Department on the game please because some University have medical and nursing departments so why don’t you add some medical and nursing departments on the game please please add them on the game
I didn’t get everything I purchased
Great game,But I bought the starter pack and it was supposed to give me an accountant,300 gems, And a building team.It went through and I only got the accountant developer’s please look into this
Expensive
How about a free upgrade to the generator
I loved this game but…
This game was great at first but now the upgrades take forever! I think instead of people waiting forever for upgrades there should be a way to get more builders without spending real life money. I am about to delete this game because it’s just boring now that I have to wait forever for upgrades
Forced things.
I didn’t have any money, and game was forcing me to pay 300 so I could partake in a event, cancel button didn’t work, couldnt get any money offline.. it seems that you will get softlocked once in a while. Tried deleting game and downloading again, made me do it again.
