Developer says data deletion can be requested
Measuredfrom the store listingview evidence
The developer's data-safety disclosure on the store states that users can request deletion of their data, or the app's own text offers a way to delete the account. This restates what the developer declares; it is not a test of whether deletion works. Apple publishes no equivalent disclosure, so on an Apple-only listing only the app's own text can support it.
What we saw: The developer's store data-safety disclosure states that data deletion can be requested; we have not seen a deletion control in the app's own text

One source only — shown, not confirmed 2

A single kind of evidence. We publish these because withholding them would be the bigger distortion, and we do not treat any of them as a finding we stand behind.

What reviewers said

Verbatim excerpts from public store reviews, shown as corroborating user reports. They are not Appworthy audit evidence, and a quotation is not proof of the finding it sits under.

Pay to progress

I don't like how you have to pay to continue the game, and let me tell you I HATE PAYING FOR GAMES, so then I Uninstalled it immediately, the only reason why it isn't a 1-star is because it is at least fun to play the first 4 real levels.

It’s a bit pay to win — For the first 5 levels it’s free but after you have to pay for the rest so you’re basically stuck in demo mode until til you buy the dlc and you have to wait for the other mode on the left in less you use tickets…

3★ · App Store · 2026-07-02

Pay to win — It’s good don’t get me wrong! But you have to pay 10 dollars to beat the game. Other than that, No more paying. Anyway, It’s super fun! I love the kingdom builder! Also, if you’re new, In order to level up your kingdom, you…

Paywall blocks the basics

I've been playing this game since it came out 10 years ago and it's alright to pass the time. Not addictive but the gameplay is fairly fun and engaging. Sadly it doesn't get much updates and a lot of the content is locked behind a pay wall.

3★ · Google Play · 2026-08-24

… — I hate how almost all of this game is hidden behind a paywall

1★ · App Store · 2026-06-11

I’m not over reacting — I’d rather touch grass then play this game. It’s super boring and everything costs money

What this app sells

Every purchase the store discloses. Store listing
 What this app sells

From the store listing. Billing terms are read from each purchase’s name — the stores don’t publish them — so treat them as a strong hint, not a disclosure.

These are really on sale; we just can’t tell from the name whether they recur.

Google Play doesn’t publish per-purchase prices, so this list covers the other store only.

How the automated analysis works

Automated, corroborated, and never human-reviewed without a person.

This assessment is produced automatically. Six independent signals are read — user reviews, SDKs in the app package, the app's own on-screen text, the app manifest, the store listing and the store privacy disclosure — and each candidate finding is filed under the sources that support it.

No charge stands on one kind of evidence — with one published exception. A finding is either a measured fact that anyone can reproduce (an ad SDK is in the package; every subscription bills weekly; the privacy label omits a tracker we can see), or it is an interpretation — and an interpretation needs independent sources to agree before it reaches the catch list. The exception is a harm only users can see: a charge may publish from reviews alone, as “Reported by N users”, once enough reviewers raise it to clear that charge’s own published bar. That agreement rule is what replaced the human reviewer, not a model’s confidence.

There is no overall score, on purpose. A 0–99 number was published here until 2026-09-15. It was withdrawn because it discriminated too weakly to be the instrument — 44.7% of every pair of apps tied — and because a single number is a verdict where a count is an observation. What publishes instead is a row of measurements, each of which says what was counted and, where we could not look, says that instead.

Findings under One source only are real reports we do not stand behind as findings. They are shown because withholding them entirely would hide a genuine complaint, and labelled because publishing them as charges would be an accusation off a single source.

 Not yet human-reviewed

Several measurements above say “Not assessed” because no artefact we hold can answer them. A human review is what resolves those — and it can remove a favourable band as easily as add one.

Hands-on inspections are not yet open.
