I thought I'd give it a try again after a couple of months since I always liked the game and thought it was fun. Installed and the game even restored all my progress and purchases. HOWEVER, why do I still get ads heading into arcade mode even though I got premium? To get rid of the ads was the only reason I spend money on this and I still get them. Sorry guys, but instantly deleted again.

We have recently repaired this thing that you are commenting on. The premium service now removes the ads completely from all game modes. We are sorry about this, we hope that if you enjoy DTM you will reconsider the score later. Thanks for your time.

I love this game the combat the bosses. It's all very good. My one qualm, however, is how barry is needed for adventure mode. You can not upgrade him without getting him. I only know two ways to get him, having 5 friends that actually will play the game to a certain point OR buy him (Screw that) so, basically you rigged up adventure mode to NEED this guy, but you won't let people upgrade him. So, till I see a way to actually get around this issue, 2 stars. You want more? fix it. or cry about it.

Within 3 minutes of playing this game, I remembered why I had it uninstalled. The ads pop up fine however it's annoying that it just goes to the Play Store without me doing anything. Second, the ads are longer than five seconds for just in-game pop-ups. When I want something from the game I expect a 30-second ad not a 118-minute ad that does not close when clicked. Google Play has this annoying thing now with ads that send you to the Play Store. Come on it's not cable TV 😒

Hi Rashida, thanks for leaving a review. We use ads to keep the game free to play, but we get that some players aren't fans of how ads work. Please reach out to our support at support@halfbrick.com if you have any feedback or questions!
