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 3

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.

Progress pauses until you wait or pay

It won’t go online at all, so I can’t do anything. I can’t build anything, my energy isn’t regenerating, I can’t make any payments, and it doesn’t even show me any ads to get rewards.

I played up to level 5, where you run out of energy and can't play anymore without interacting with the monetization. it's a fun game in the Magic Survivors genre, if slightly clunky. the animation of the character spinning like a top to…

Pay to progress

Great graphics and core mechanics. The new hero drop rates are pretty low, but events are welcome. F2P is a slow grind with a massive gap vs P2W. I love a challenge, but it's unbalanced. A lack of alliance recruitment tools makes it…

Unfortunately this game is very hard to play unless you spend money. The "double your rewards" after you watch an ad crash 50% of the time. The one shot after level completion to double your rewards and it crashes. How convenient it is so…

As it stands the game is unplayable without watching ads, The first 10 missions are way too easy but as soon as you hit mission 11 suddenly nothing you do will help unless u watch a ridiculous amount of ads or pay a ridiculous amount of…

How the automated analysis works

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

This assessment is produced automatically. One independent signal is read — user reviews — and each candidate finding is filed under the source that supports 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.
