Whatever. Still doesn't make up for those idiots that 1 star because their device isnt compatible, or some other dumb reason.
Plus, good reviews bring more people to the game. We all win.
Don't see anything wrong with it myself. You don't think anyone else does this?

I just feel it's a bit misleading towards new players. I mean, I tried to start a guild with all new players. Got around 70 members. They all quit within half a week :/

As I said, it misleads people into thinking it better than it actually is.

Every company makes multiple accounts and hires people to rate their games and advertise them. YouTubers like their own video!

Yeah, I guess it's just simply advertising, could I get a lock on this thread?

I saw it to. I think it's bush league myself. If u make a good product (like pl and dl are, cant comment on sl cause i dont play it) u don't have to go and stuff the ballot box like this.

The amount of time and effort these developers put in to provide their third FREE game, and you're upset with them giving themselves a 5 star review on the app store... Give me a break.
I guess you dont take pride in your work.

Hey guys,
I can well understand your sentiment. I would like to offer my viewpoint. You work day in and day out on a product, it's really nice to be able to tell the world how you love it. Again, I can understand your feeling of morality about it. I don't think our few votes in the face of 12,561 five star reviews (on Google Play) really constitute stuffing the ballot box :D
