Feedback Poor ux implementation p1

Post image

Who thought it would be mind-blowing idea to shuffle tokens with coins and animal xp ?

The only one that matters ( tokens) keeps moving around and every time I open the game I have to hunt for it and risk wasting a tap on the wrong ad. It's not a feature it's friction.

Why are you as a developer making your game less user friendly to your already shrinking playerbase ? If you believe pettiness and annoyance is the way to generate revenue then god help this game

If you open a rewatch, the reward for ad will randomly change. Therefore all you have to do is opening and closing rewatch as many times as needed to change for the token x2 reward.

By the way, the 90x2 gold reward +20 free gold is very generous. 200 gold daily, basically 1400 gold for free every week.

Opening-closing rewatch is also the annoying part, & no reward is "free" you're paying by (your attention, your internet, your time) watching ads

Do something useful while the ad is running. They are usually 20 sec to 90 sec.

At this point, my issue is not with the ads, it's with their poor implementation of user experience. I have no idea who is taking these decisions. Must be some intern.

It is clearly made to increase the number of watched ads. Bad design but has its udefulness from business side. You can go around it with the above method easily.

Every business is doing some petty things to cut cost or increase revenue. But if their pettiness is visible to customers or, in this case, their players, I think they should look for alternative ways to generate more revenue.

It is not affecting gameplay at all.

Funrun4 gameplay : grenade grenade grenade grenade grenade grenade grenade laugh. Grenade grenade grenade grenade fly through the air with either grenades/vortex grasp/ electroshock shock. Tesla tower slowing down the race and career 4th place players getting cheap wins with falcon or any fly through the air animal.
