Comments on Game Dev Story for Android

★★★★☆ J T. · May 12, 2026

Forced suggestion to leave a review after getting top game award... besides that it's a fun game. The grand prize is kind of pointless when you can earn 1 m by that time and near perfect games.

★★★★★ Cynon Jacinto · Mar 29, 2026

Such a fun game, easy to understand and even if it isn't, there's a guide and wiki to help you with everything you need. This game is honestly so chill and relaxing, mechanics aren't very complicated and the pixelated design is great and adorable, expecting more great things from Airsoft as I play more of their other games

★★★★★ Keita Yongz · Jul 13, 2026

I can't even tell how many hours was spent to play this game. This game absolutely fun and addicting

★★★★★ Stewart “Stompin89” Osgood · Jun 25, 2026

Addictive! Zero In-App Purchases. It's a short game, but it has Replay ability, in fact, to complete it you need to do at least two cycles. I did complete it in only two cycles if what you call completing it is winning the grand prize.

★★★★★ Alice Lin · May 5, 2026

How fun. I won a grand prize, and they sent me to review. Fair enough.

★★☆☆☆ Leland Dantzler · Apr 4, 2026

I think it's shallow and solved quickly, then never really evolves again. I don't understand the glowing reviews at all, as there was nothing addicting about a solved puzzle/management game to me.

★☆☆☆☆ Jeremiah Walker · Jun 11, 2026

Bought a game didn't get the full game only way to get it is apple special which is pretty stupid. Don't buy this game 5 dollars, and you don't even get the whole game. 👎👎

★☆☆☆☆ Darko Pecanac · Jun 21, 2026

Every time I get the highest points in each category the "oh no we had equipment failure, we're up and running, but we lost some points" message pops up, EVERY time. Out of 140 developed, 55 had this happen to. I owned another similar game & that had more modes where you could hire multiple teams & work on MULTIPLE games at once, same with having ability to create a console, graphics, software etc. This game lacks a lot of content that make these types of games engaging and wanting to come back.

★☆☆☆☆ Mwaka Monze · Apr 28, 2026

Repetitive and becomes extremely boring/formulaic very quickly.
