Idle Frontier: Western Tapper 12+

Help!

I love your game, now I’ve worked out what to do but ...
This latest event is going really well, but the double coin ad boost keeps disappearing and it is taking AGES to level up, which is driving me nuts! I want to try to lenel up to town 11 before it ends and at this rate I won’t be able too! Please fix or put extra time on the event? Thanks 😊

Good but flawed

Downloaded this as liked other idle games although after a while they there’s nothing new and they get boring. This was different, a bit more involved and then a 4 day event starts and there’s something fresh and challenging.
First event was great, but the second and now the third are ridiculously hard, trying to automate the shops in the first event I played was challenging as it is as many would jump a level each time you progress and you have to try to level up before you progress to the next town, but it’s a challenge I accepted I wouldn’t always do so.
But with the second and third the shops would jump 2 levels each time you progress meaning there is no way to automate all shops so you either play ALL the time or, like me, you choose to give up.
I get that it’s about trying to get me to buy resources but I won’t do that, I am happy to watch the adverts which I am sure generates plenty of money or pay 2.99 to play unhindered but I like many other players don’t won’t to be forced into paying to achieve, we will move on.

If the events are corrected I would be interested to play again but I doubt it will happen.

Bad design choices lead to cash grab

Deleted after seeing how the bad design choices in the special event make the game unplayable without buying upgrades. Bad choice #1: when starting the event, the game does not give you the rare managers you need to automate your space ship and transport ship, so you have to tap constantly to earn money. The managers you need are for sale for 10 GBP. Bad choice #2: after buying the managers and progressing to the third town, I can’t hire the managers I already own for the space ship because now there’s an arbitrary 3 level requirement on that manager. Again, the cards you need for the upgrade are for sale, this time for 15 GBP. Save your time and your money and play some other idle game where the developers aren’t so incompetent.
