Cruise
Put Life on ‘CRUISE’ while joining new, lasting friends on the “VOYAGE-OF-ECSTASY”!!!
Money money money
Not even 5 minutes into making decisions in the game, I got placed in a 45 minute timer countdown situation to either pay to keep playing with no ads/ no timers or just wait it out. I’ve neverrrr deleted a game so damn fast😭 cause how you already want money and I ain’t even get to experience what it’s like to even play the game yet? Boooo DO NOT download this…
Yo, cool
You’re good
Wanted to love it but….
This app nickle and dimes you to death and you don’t feel like you can get far without emptying your bank account…
Game
The game is good but will need to spend money as it dosent let you go further with the start budget and seem to be after after cruise you need more to spend after this first one you don’t make enough to progress onto the second trip but I’m not sure for the third trip. Plus need to spend money to stop adds or you need to wait 45 mins each trip.
Diamond purchase
I bought 40 for $9.99 but it never gave me my diamonds. I exited the app. And went back in and nothing. I want the diamonds or my money back in full please. Thank you
What a joke.
It’s free for the first 15 minutes then it’s watch ad after ad or pay to go ad free. What an absolute joke. Deleting app right now. Updating now the developer wants to chime in. Again you post that the app is “FREE” and the only way past the ads or force to pay is to pay. Your math is not mathing.
Sigh of relief
Animations are nice the graphic quality is favorable and the choice engine is great.
Gag worthy
If you can get past forced adds prepare yourself. The game penalizes you for common sense real life scenarios. You late for the cruise you’re left behind, join a protest and get arrested in a foreign country dumb decision but this game will have you tongue punching the fart boxs of gag worthy decisions in no time. You can clearly see it was not well thought out. Deleted before the completion of the 2nd voyage its that bad. Update. I expect a little common sense when it comes to a simulation. Of course when the game gives you a penalty for doing something that would normally be done by maritime law it’s not a simulation. Yeah, your developers & programmers are idiots. Nobody cares about your adds, there’s a game I’ve been on for over half a year, no adds, contests to win Amazon gift cards. Acceptance is a hell of a drug.
Interesting game
It’s an interesting and hopefully good game, I just finished customising my first ship and I had to watch 3 sets of ads randomly though out it though, now I need to wait 45 minutes to continue playing or pay 12 dollars a month, there’s other options but the “watch 5 ads to skip” doesn’t work
Desastroso
Es vergonzoso, este juego a los pocos minutos no te deja continuar si no pagas, a ver , eso no se hace al poco tiempo , deja pasar algunos días o mese, una autentica basura , no por la creatividad , es por el sistema que tienen, me han perdido , hubiera sido seguro un gran jugador , ya que suelo invertir dinero en juegos que me atrapan y la idea es buenísima, pero no me han dejado avanzar.
Zero improvement-stay away
Dev response three years ago: “Thanks for the detailed feedback! It's great to hear that the game starts off well, but we understand your concerns about the progression and monetization mechanics. We'll definitely consider your suggestions about earning in-game currency and the payment mechanics for employees and spaces. Balancing ads, gameplay, and optional purchases is a continuous process, and insights like yours are invaluable. We're here to create a fun game, not to frustrate players into spending. Thanks for helping us improve!” Does not seem like the developer is interested in the feedback that users are giving. Ads after every decision. Tried 3 different ships and the cost are the same. Pirates that you always have to pay!? Really !? This is truly a cash grabbing scheme and the devs should really be ashamed. I laughed at the “We're here to create a fun game, not to frustrate players into spending” line. Even the most recent developer responds is a carbon copy to others.
Too many ads and asks for money
I was really excited to play this game. It allows you to run the game as a cruise ship CEO which is an awesome perspective to a game! Once I started playing I felt like there were way too many ads. However, my single biggest pet peeve about this game is that it forces you to have to make purchases to continue. When you run out of money to run your cruise line, even if it’s because of mishaps you can’t control, they try to force you to spend real money to keep playing. A lot of games off in app purchases but not to continue the game. They are usually as upgrades or to advance your progress faster. On top of that, they also want you to pay monthly or yearly for the game! I finally got frustrated and just deleted this game after restarting a couple times. This was such a waste of a good idea in my opinion.
Terrible
Unless you purchase a monthly or yearly plan game is unplayable
No worth the download
Only download if you want to spend some money and are ok with having to wait 45+ minutes to play. You can watch adds to get past the 45 minute wait between tasks but you quickly run into a pay wall where you have to pay to advance.
Could be good
Could be a good game, but 10 mini in and already watched 10+ ads.
Over priced paid subscription and lying devs
I installed and give and after 15 minutes of game play I got an ad and I thought oh that is not bad if it gets annoying I just have to pay once to not have to deal with ads or timers then after minutes I run into a timer of 45 minutes and I would have to pay a reoccurring subscription to remove the ads and timers for like 10 dollars a week so not only did I install a game I can't play because the game locks you in the timer but the devs lied in a review of a one time purchase
Great but needs some development
There was a great start to the game getting through two cruises but then there was a point writhing the third cruise I ran out of money. It would be ideal if there was something added for ways to make more money before profits. Also this game is extremely quiet. Adding some misc would be nice.
Bait and Switch
While the gameplay was fun for the first 15 minutes it goes to a timed countdown to play more unless you pay a fee. Guess everyone has to get paid, but seems sneaky to do that to people.
Cruise Tycoon Simulator
I see none of other upgrades of any kind and just the same old chapters. Love the game but nothing new.
Money
At least add a checkpoint or something some of us don’t want to restart a long story with no money at the end or ads for more money at least
Good, but not great
When I was gonna go on my first voyage, a premium deal was pulled up and I couldn’t exit out of it, it said to get out of it you have to watch five ads, which does not sound fair at all😭😭😭
Dull gameplay, forced payment
I figured I’d try their 7.99 play for one week without ads option. That came after a torrent of ads had already hit me in the first few minutes. Now I’m gridlocked because even after paying eight bucks for a WEEK of gameplay, I can’t advance without giving it more money just ten minutes after subscribing. I didn’t have enough cash on hand or gems to resolve the pirate crisis. Do NOT even bother downloading. I typically don’t write reviews and I give a lot of grace, but this is a low effort cash grab. You could code this with AI yourself and have more fun (which I suspect is what the developers did, vibe code a cruise tycoon)
Missed a opportunity for something big
I downloaded this game extremely excited to play this game after doing one voyage it goes into making you have to buy a 2 ship, but by the time you pick your first ship and crew, plus other spots in the voyage that you have to choose to spend the amount of “money” the game starts you out with there isn’t enough money to even buy the cheapest option unless you actually spend your own money to give yourself enough game money to continue playing the game!
Scam
You absolutely cannot keep playing the game if you don’t pay money for more fake money.
Really disappointed
As someone who really enjoys games like this, and who really enjoys taking Cruises, I was really excited to try it out. However, I was really disappointed when it turns out that there are copious amounts of ads around every corner. Also, it makes you watch a lot of ads or pay a lot of money just to play the game. I don’t think it’s fair, and I don’t think a user gets a good first impression by not being able to spend much time before getting hit with ads and a paywall. As much as I hate to do it, I will be deleting this game and not playing any further and I really developers reconsider their marketing strategy and pricing model. I wanted to give it one star, but I gave it two stars for its graphics and the work that was obviously put into the game, but it was difficult to even to do that.
To many ads and false advertising
Didn’t think this was a role playing game instead of a normal tycoon game.
Better pay up$$$
You spend more time watching ads than playing the game unless you’re ready to pay $7/month.
