I used to play this game all the time when I was younger and I loved it. (It was one of my favorite games to play) But of course, after downloading it to play it again, it managed to get taken over by advertisements which ruined the fun. When I tried to play this again, most of my "playing" time was just advertisements. And a majority of the weapons now cost gold OR ads. (Which is not cool at all) So, too many ads, can't really play for that long, and this game is now a piece of trash to me.
Reviews for Kick the Buddy-Fun Action Game
← Back to Kick the Buddy-Fun Action GameHello, I would like to let you know that three years ago, your game was amazing, now it's doing a horrible job. The second I redownload the app yesterday and I opened it, it came a lot more annoying ads. Then, I signed up thinking that all my progress will be saved. The worst part is that today, the game froze twice and the third time I opened the app, I lost ALL my progress even when I was still using the same account! Thank you for reading this and I hope you'll fix it. Have a nice day!
In the description of the game it says "Relieve stress!" I launched the game and got an ad before the game even opened. I tapped on the buddy after that for 15 seconds and got a reward-another unskippable ad. I tried to buy a cool weapon with my built up "currency" and found that you gotta watch not 1, not even 3, but 5 unskippable ads if you want the weapon. At this rate to play even 10 minutes of this already stupid game would be an hour of ads. Stress reliever my a**.
This game just became worse. These "updates" are destroying the game. Now, buddy dies WAY TO FAST with some weapons, the "present" appears even after I had bought the no ads thing, there are audio problems, and most of the items aren't even available anymore. I was having fun with the earlier versions with tons of things unlocked, and now there is no restore progress option. As of right now, the game is only playable if you buy no ads. If these things are fixed, I will rate much higher.
This used to be one of my favorite games, but the developers ruined it completely. Everything that hasn't been put "under construction" is locked behind a paywall. There are a ridiculous number of ads considering the low income from them. The "under construction" aspects of the game will never get updated since the developers have clearly given up on the game and made a cheap copy for profit.
I love this game! Buddy's like my own little stress ball that I can torture at my leisure. Only thing is there are too many ads! I don't mind watching ads to get free stuff in the game, and since I already watch ads voluntarily I get frustrated when it's forced down my throat. Other than that, it's very fun, addicting, and a great stress reliever! I would also like there to be a feature where you can rip his limbs apart. That would be fun!
SO. MANY. ADS. The only reason I didn't rate 1 star is because the game is decent to play when I want to pass time, but I have to play on airplane mode in order to actually play it longer than 3 seconds. There are ads on-screen and then every time I even try to touch the guy... boom ad. Even if I manage to do anything, a "gift" pops up, ad... it even makes me watch an ad when I decline. Ugh.
The game is 70% ads. Most of the weapons you have to buy in gold (the microtransactions). Then most of the time while you're playing its asking for you to pay for their membership (or even stopping your playing time for an ad). I had this game awhile ago and wanted to pick it up again, but I'd honestly tell anyone that wants to play the game you better just buy it. No point of playing the free version.
Insane amount of ads and monetization. Basically, if you're not willing to spend real money on the game, don't bother installing it, it's pretty much unplayable. Random ads out of nowhere, everything locked behind real money or ads (you need to buy blood to unlock it...), it's crazy. More than 70% of the game is locked behind money and ads. I get that you want to make money, but this is just greedy...
Add overload. The game is mildly entertaining but there is no real depth to it. Blood cost money but he does not even do much apart from talk and show a few bumps and bruises. Let's talk more about the adds because you will be watching more adds than actually playing this game. Some will actually open to the play store without giving you the option to just x-out. That is bull freaking poop. Now to the good stuff. Weapon choices are a bit fun. Too many adds to obtain a free weapon. Might not be at all worth it. The new interesting plus but also a big minus - cancel out in a way - is the advertisement that interacts during gameplay. That was fun actually. Random pimp shows up on the side and if you got him money pops out. This app will not survive.
This game was amazing when it came out, it receives stress, was incredibly fun, and had tons of things to do. Now every time I open the app, I'm bombarded with ads, I get that you need to make money, but I watched 3 ads in a row after killing him, I even bought the diamond membership that claims to remove ads, but it didn't work. At this point just delete it, you've turned it into a horrid piece of garbage to play.
It's sad how bad this game has gotten. I remember when there were no ads, and you could play offline. The craziest thing to me by far is that in this version of the game, there are some weapons not available anymore. Not even a way to pay for them and instead says there comming "soon." Now, this game is a shameless cash grab like most of the trash on the app store. On top of all that, the game has an offline tag, but if you try to play offline, you get nonstop pop-ups stopping you from playing.
Full of ads, as expected. I had fun until I had to watch an ad every minute or so. I don't mind ads that much, but please knock it down a bit. So why 2 stars? I enjoyed the game in the first few minutes and the variety of ways you can torture the buddy is fun, it's just annoying since some of the best items are locked behind a paywall of some sorts. Fun game, but little to no play time, since ads take up most of the time. You also have to pay to have dumb things like blood..? lol
This used to be a fun game, but when I decided to try again I was overwhelmed by new annoying features that don't give you a second to do anything. It used to be a fun game to mess around with, relax, and kill time, but now there's some dumb rewards system, different game modes, making progress to unlock new items every time the buddy dies, and you don't actually get to play the game for more than three seconds at a time before the game stops you. It's just frustrating and slow paced now.
when I was younger and we actually had to buy the game it did have ads but way less and it was a great,enjoyable experience, and a unforgettable experience! but now it's free and as expected it is horrible, gameplay fun but way to many ads, can't even pick a weapon without getting one or two ads every 30 seconds!I wish it could go back to the way it was.
This game forces way too many ads. I just played less than 5 minutes and was bombarded by 7 ads... Why? I understand the need for ads, but forcing the every 45 seconds is ridiculous. I want to play the game, not be forced to watch ads like this. Sure, you can skip them after 15-30 seconds after it starts... you get no reward for it, and it's too frequent.
I used to like this game, but I think it's been ruined. There's too much stuff on the screen, way too many ads (like one for every 30 seconds of gameplay), and even without internet, it asks you to turn it back on QUITE LITERALLY every FIVE SECONDS! Super frickin annoying! also, every time I accidentally click on an ad, the whole damn game restarts. This does not deserve 4 stars. 2 at best.
I remember back when I first got this game a while back it was one of the best things ever for me, but ever since playgendary bought the game, they have immediately went to ruining it. Every 5 clicks pulls up an ad, and when it asks you if you want to watch an ad to earn something and you click no, half the time it still plays an ad. Half the stuff that used to be in the game is no either locked behind a paywall of 13 dollars a month, or just flat out says "soon" as if it didn't already exist.
The game itself is really fun and I do remember playing it back then as well. The thing is, any time I click on a new weapon, an ad would pop up. Every time I "knock him out" I would get a pop up or an ad. They made this game more annoying for the player instead of the actual buddy. airplane mode doesn't work either because it would still give you popups about their vip or premium. It's sad to see the game the way it is.
sound settings automatically turn themselves back on without even changing the switch, withing minutes I will have to click it on get another sound to run and click it off again while the sound is running to stop it. which only works for seconds till it starts again. and if you don't purchase the ad block or play offline or with other ad blockers good luck as it's more ads than gameplay. I'm willing to change the review if and when these get improved. at least the sound but I mean cmon
