Evidence and review signals

What we measured
Each line is a measurement published as a measurement, never a verdict.
Each line is a measurement, published as a measurement. Where we have not looked, the line says so rather than reading as a zero.

Themes reported by reviewers
1 theme reported
Counted from the reviews we have read for this app. "No theme reported" means no theme reached our reporting threshold — it is not a finding that nothing is wrong with this app, and we do not say it is.
Five-star share of ratings
65–79% five-star
Arithmetic on the stores' own published rating counts. It says nothing about why the ratings fall where they do.
In the package we scanned
No package has been scanned for this app, so nothing is published about what it ships. That is an absence of evidence about the app, not a finding about it.
Graded bands · predicate set 1.4 · how these are measured
What the analysis found
App-specific findings, grouped by what each one rests on. How they are graded lives on its own page.
The catch list 1
Charges we publish at a strength we stand behind: measured from an artefact, agreed by independent sources, or reported by enough users to clear that charge's own published bar.
Reported by users: Aggressive ad load
Advertising volume or placement that interrupts normal use: ads between every action, unskippable or forced full-screen ads.
What we saw: Raised by 45 distinct reviewers — 7.9% of the 570 reviews scanned on this store leg (Google Play).
Highlighted reviews
Representative public review excerpts shown as user reports, not Appworthy audit evidence.
“Not happy. i would have given more stars but everytime i click on an ad...the game crashes!!! this has been happening for a few weeks. I thought maybe you would sort the issue but nothing has changed. I haven't got the spare cash to…”
“I would say this is a calming game, but it's not when they basically make you watch ads to play mini games or load the truck up. in the ad, if you end up in the play store... click the back arrow twice, like real fast. it brings you back…”
