Phenomenal Game
Sat Nov 18 2023 Darth ThisThis game is just exactly what I’ve been wanting and looking for so long. The detail is amazing. The art style is wonderful. The soundtrack is relaxing. The little people doing their things in the cruise ship and at ports is fun to watch. The progression is fairly easy but there is still some length. It not like other games where you have to sit and wait to rack up money for one small upgrade. You can play for very long without getting bored; everything is just so satisfying. And the best part, there is no ads unless you want a bonus. I get the bonuses to support the devs of this game as they made an excellent game, a rare instance for a free mobile game. This is must play if you like tycoon genre of games, especially if you are into cruise ships.
Good Game, Frustrating Ads
Tue Dec 19 2023 kiyasmomThe gameplay is spot-on! I love the animations and how the ship comes alive. There is plenty of gameplay and it's a pretty relaxing pastime. That is, until you realize that for every 30 minutes of play, 22 minutes of it are ads! Seriously, 3 out of 4 ads are 30-60 seconds running time, plus an additional 15 seconds (to decide?) and many have no early exit option. It's bearable the first day or so of play because the game itself is fun, but by day 3, despite my eagerness to start building my 3rd deck, I closed the game in frustration because the sad, emotionally manipulative game scenes in these ads being played on repeat every 2-3 minutes. I have no problem with ad rev games. Nothing is free and you get what you pay for. But if you're doing a cheery cruise game, why keep subjecting your customers to scenes of cold moms, sick kids, and conceiving old ladies? What is the agenda here? I feel the ads don't align with the gameplay. Not recommended simply because the ads sully the experience and in time, can affect ones perception of the game.
Let us rotate..
Fri Dec 01 2023 chilllaaaThis game is well balanced and adorable!!! Thank you devs for not forcing ads in our faces~!~! I willingly watch lots of ads for this game because you actually give us the choice! THANK YOU! Other games try to jam ads down our throats and it completely ruins the game, but this one doesn’t!! PLUS the rewards you get for watching ads are pretty great! Keep it up~ I can’t wait for future updates!! Literally only one, minor, negative point… we can rotate our screen… Please let us freely rotate and this game would be perfect. Despite this flaw, I still give 5 stars because the game is so polished already and has so much potential.
Fun, but the ads…
Wed Feb 14 2024 TmoozDo you love watching ads for ROYAL MATCH? Man, is this the game for you!
Seriously though, the game is fun. Cute animations, it’s unique and easy to play for free as long as you don’t mind watching 45 minutes of ads for 15 minutes of play. I wish the game focused on a little more of the finances of the cruise (paying employees, provisioning supplies and stuff like that). The only 3- star passenger is the Sheik so after a while you just end up looking like you’re running a super yacht for the Saudi Royal family. What I hate is that you don’t accrue fuel via time except when the game is running. I don’t want to leave my iPad running all night long just to be able to play the next day. Again, it’s cute and fun but needs a little work to be a long-term playable “tap and wait” game.
Fun Game in the beginning But Now I’m Bored
Thu Dec 21 2023 Krissandra BocciaThis game starts off great, but note it quickly becomes an idle game. Tons off adds to watch to get extra resources to improve areas. Few questions. We are we in Christmas time and the ship is still stuck in a Halloween play mode loop? Scavenger hunt for Halloween mode will not allow you to collect the finds The only 3 star character is the sheik. A little variety would be nice. Why did I loose all my room income when I hired a lobby manager? I’ve spent over 40 bucks for in game purchases and can not see myself staying with this game much longer and think it was a waste of money.
Just deleted the app and copied my user I’d before I did. I was reinstalling thinking it was a glitch.
Reinstalled app and attempted to restore purchases by pressing the button it does absolutely nothing.
Amazing game (EDITED, ORIGINAL: Unplayable)
Tue Jan 09 2024 Wow! What a game!I’m not a hater, but the second time I try to log in, I’m told to clear garbage but a stupid offer is blocking it and I can’t get rid of it since I need to clear the garbage but I can’t. For once, stop popping up offers, I’m not interested. EDIT: The problem was fixed, thanks devs! The game is very good and it has great potential, and it doesn’t try to force tons of ads into it, even though it is a small game studio. I like playing this and hope it is developed further.
Too many ads
Fri Jan 26 2024 86DorSo many ads,
Every choice you get you have an ad option. I understand games use ads. But this game is greedy on ads. 30-40 seconds ads, and an additional 15 seconds timer to wait for the X of the ad to finish loading. So you waste a minute every couple of seconds. Tap here, ad. Tap there, ad.
You set a 2-3 minute sail, with all of the ads it becomes 15 minutes because the sail pauses.
Let’s not talk about the long sails. You’ll be watching ads all day
It’s not a game for the long run, it makes you not want to care to progress knowing you’re opening this to watch ads.
Different in a good way
Wed Nov 15 2023 XiaoXiao17I really like this because I like how there’s opportunity to upgrade the employs and earn diamonds without having to use real money. I like how there’s interactions through the game and your not always sitting there. I hope we see more updates in the game. The art style I really like it. And bonus the builder is only 1.99 which is cheap because most games asks for 4.99 or 9.99 even and I don’t purchase those.
Needs Progress Save
Tue Nov 07 2023 CraytatoJust started playing this game and it’s really cute ! I’m enjoying the quickness of upgrading and running the voyages (will see how long that lasts) and it isn’t too difficult to get money to upgrade and hire people. there was one thing that bothered me and it’s that there’s no progress save feature… I’m really big on being able to save my progress in case of issues or phone swapping and this game seems great, but needs this feature asap. Besides that, I’m loving this game so far !
Love the Game but Needs Some Work
Wed Jan 03 2024 LivinThatAppLifeAbsolutely love this game and it’s such a fun and relaxing getaway from all the craziness of life.
The one frustrating thing I’ve noticed is the game has started crashing during video ads. To the point where I have lost tycoon guests, bonuses and prizes because the video will crash and I can’t get even the initial prize much less the bonus.
Fixing this bug will definitely keep me playing for longer and would make me want to tell more of my friends and family to play!
