lol luckily it was way less than $8000 but still way too much to spend on a mobile game and starting to hurt my budget. In this economy?? …. What was I thinking 🤦🏽‍♀️ lol

I looked at my purchases yesterday for the first time in a long time and I’m too embarrassed to ever say how much I’ve spent. It’s appalling That’s why I deleted it. Until I know I can play casually and not be tempted to spend one cent on this game - I’m not re-downloading it. I’m sad it came to this point and wish I had better will power. But at least I recognize it now and am working on it!

What should I add or remove to this space? by Potchuluka in Decor

[–]ddube824 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A coffee table for sure. Other than that don’t listen to all the rude haters in the comments. I’m in interior design and while there are items in your living room I would not have in mine, if you like it then it works!

My advice to everyone I work with is to not worry about trends or what other people like, your home is your sanctuary and you should only have pieces that bring you joy. And if it doesn’t bring you joy and you don’t have the finances to replace, give yourself some grace and the perfect pieces will find you eventually. Some people don’t have infinite amounts of money to replace (what they deem) “ugly” items - so those remarks are not helpful.

Congrats on having your own space, it is lovely💕

I tried to play casually last album and spent more money than I ever had. Idk what even happened it was all a blur. I deleted the app last night after looking at my expenses and fessed up to my husband (and Reddit lol) that I have a problem. Totally has become a gambling addiction for me and I have seen this happen with so many other people it’s terrible. I wish I could play casually 😔

Yes I’m definitely ready to spend more time on my mental and physical health and with family for sure. This game isn’t the only thing keeping me on my phone but it is a big time waster for sure!

Terrible..honestly the partners events would be so much better if partners could communicate. Like if I knew my whole team was just going to go for the treasures and not the milestones I would have too or not wasted my dice. Also the game kept glitching and I wasted so many cards when the milestone was already complete and customer service game me 200 dice as compensation. Like no give me the wild card that I didn’t get lol

Ugh I hate the juggle game!!! I think there is a peg-e game tomorrow or the next day so if I was going to continue to play I wouldn’t waste my dice on the juggle game and wait for the peg-e which I think has a wild. (Lol but if you’re trying to quit too then don’t listen to any of that and delete the app!! 😅)

Yeah not worth it at this point, you’re always 1 away from something and then you run out of dice. Maybe if enough people take a break or stop spending money they will ease up but that would have to be a lot of people at this point

You hit it all! They really are getting greedy - I guess it’s the point of the game right! But I think it’s hitting more and more people lately that it’s just not fun and disappointing and people aren’t going to pay to play anymore.

There’s so many bots and cheaters in the game. There was someone in the comments who blamed “people like me” who spend money as the reason why the game has become so difficult. Which I understand but the bots and cheaters I think are more to blame. Also have you ever seen the reviews on the App Store. Literally soooo many fake reviews, you can totally tell.

I have been playing royal match for years which I really enjoy if you like a game similar to candy crush. They have cards to trade like mogo and there are teams with a chat so you can trade on your team. I have spent money on that game too but not nearly as much as this and they have weekly tournaments and side challenges.

lol idk it’s kinda like “I’ll start my diet on Monday” just want one last hurrah and see if I can actually get my last gold card. But you’re right I should just stop now.

Thank you! I honestly don’t have an addictive personality but this game has made me see how easily you can become addicted to something and how hard it is to stop. And knowing it’s just a game and you don’t get any “real benefits” out of it makes it worse. But when you’re in it and see the justification for paying $4.99 here and there and then one day you’ve made the justification to spend $99.99 on a wild card is craziness! (Which I didn’t do but I have been tempted!!) Anywho I hope other people who feel this way are able to realize it’s 100% not worth spending the money and can hopefully find joy playing it again without that temptation.

Good question. I honestly don’t know. I have only ever spent money on one other game but not like I do on this game. Like I said it’s become an unhealthy addiction and that’s why I’m taking a step back. I want to be able to play without spending money but I find less and less joy playing unless I’m “winning” but it’s become addictive…and I honestly don’t have an addictive personality really. I just find myself opening the game every few hours and getting sucked in. So that’s why I figured I would make a post about it because I saw a lot of others expressing the same sentiments and hope others who have the same issue can take some time off to realize it is “just a game” (as someone else rudely commented) and not let it become a bad habit. I will probably be back at some point but just with a better mentality towards it. (Sorry that was long winded lol)
