I like the long waits. It means I can play the game for a short duration every so often. Most idle games suck you in until you're tired of the game - which tends to be soon. This game also does get interesting over time and have many choices where some online research and/or math is needed to progress fast. That said, I can understand how most people find this game boring and the badges too tedious to get as well.

No need to go to FB and Twitter. See the daily codes list here: https://www.kongregate.com/forums/956347-holyday-city-reloaded/topics/1799161-list-of-codes-of-the-day?page=1.

What a horrible game - I often believe I have incredible patient when it comes to games like these, but I just can't deal with this anymore

Ideas to make this game way less tedious:
(1) Either let us use 1hr/2hr boosts quickly or let us combine them for a 1day/10day bonus. I have like 1000 1hr boosts and I'm not about to click 3000 times in different places to use them.
(2) Make the event run smoother. Why do I get coconuts then I have to exchange them for tickets? Why not just give me tickets, there's nothing else I can do with coconuts. I realize that's just another reason to look at the "Buy this stuff" page which seems greedy especially for such a slow idle game. Also let me use all my tickets at once, or at least if I have 10 let me use them (w/o the 20 ticket minimum to use 10x).
(3) Time boosts should also run timers. At a certain point I don't even get far if I use a 10-day. Makes them pretty useless.

I've been playing since November, so any criticisms I have can't be dismissed by "Give it a few days." It's boring and takes forever. I reset frequently. The coconut wheel event takes too long to spin. You have to use a lot of the upgrades to get the game to go faster. A lot of things are where you have to get to a certain level before you can do them. The game is too slow for that to be interesting. All the negative comments are valid and should not be dismissed with "Give it more time." I gave it time.

Because of badge, I AM giving this piece of crap a few days. So? Extremely boring, disappointing and really subpar compared to other idle games. Devs, care why? Because restarting is awful. We keep what? Real money stuff (which I will never have, wont spend on this crap), event stuff (which I can't try) and managers / investments? Those are ok, but not enough to make a run look better than the previous one. Those are really tiny improvements. Another one getting the badge and out!

Hey, how about a way to use multiple bonuses at once? Fr instance, use 5-10 1Hr bonuses at a time? Or, how about a way to exchange lower bonuses for higher ones? Like cash in 24 1hr bonuses for a 1D bonus?

I played for about a month and will reach City level 10 today. It probably is my last time playing, I gave it a "few days" as suggested by Holyday Community but I find it kinda boring. I see the comments are pretty bashful and I can see why. My suggestion is we need something that "auto" buys stores for you. Like maybe a "realtor" menu? Of course they'd have to be expensive, but say you buy level1 realtor, you gain 1 coffee shop per minute. Just my 2 cents.

Unfortunately, this game is particularly very grindy. Even in the first few minutes, it kinda throws me off with how grindy this is. If not for the badges, unfortunately, I would have not played the whole game to begin with.
Maybe try implementing more exciting features and fixing the difficulty curve? Thanks.

Took me 6 days to do the medium badge, that's with using all of the boosts that I could get with the free gold given with the daily login.

i am playing on chrome-win 10 and ... got within 15 min to 1/2 level1 ... hit the full level within a further day and then soft-reseted in the bureau... hit the next level after 16 hours ... the slow down is feeled drastically compared to other idle games but every "unlock" re-speeds the game,... >>once i know more i ll delete and replace this post<

Guys the dev's are absolutely right about things speeding up when you get to a certain level, they really mean it and you unlock a lot of things which help you boost your progress

To put things a little more into perspective: the progress is "fairly quick" up until lvl 32, when you unlock the island: there, the city's progress all but stops dead, while the island gets nowhere slow. There, you'll really have to spend money to progress.

Don't spend kreds on this one. I spent some for early 3x boost but once you spend some time in this game suddenly options for 81x or ridiculous 243x boosters come in which makes your investments utterly pointless. This game is basically designed to squeeze as much money from you as it can. Don't fall for it.

This game is so bad i'm going to go out on a limb and call it pathetic. A grasshopper could probably make an idle game with a more interesting engagement curve. As soon as i get the badge i'm going to leave and never come back- maybe I'll do something more interesting, like watching paint dry.

At lvl 11, almost 12. The ascent is getting steeper, and I'm almost at a breaking point. If the game continues to slow down at this rate, I may just quit

New event really adds to the fun. "we know your problem with the other events: they were too easy to cash in on! Now you can wait for a slow spinner every time!"

I have read the comments from the devs about how it gets more interesting if you keep playing, but that is not how you capture an audience. Game need to be interesting from the start and get even better throughout.

Three days in and haven't reached lvl 2 if you are starting your journey now turn back. This game is way too slow and needs an ascension that can be attainable within the first hour and that actually rewards the player with something worthwhile.

How is it possible to earn a hard badge, or even an impossible one in under an hour....and it takes a week to get this MEDIUM badge?????
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Oh and I have to start over a couple of times to get the badge? This is the crapiest piece of s**t I've seen not only on Kong, but anywhere. I'm getting the badge and I don't want to see this ever again...

I think that city exp should be given a bit faster... Although its a idle game but resetting the game should give more bonuses. I played the game for 3 three days and reached level-2 on third day.
