Universal Paperclips™ App Reviews

The game is good but it's not optimized for mobile at all. I'm rather enjoy the spartan aesthetic, but the UX needs updated for mobile. 1. Buttons need to be bigger. The look is fine but make them at least the size of a finger 2. Make it so we can scroll the event log and also make it larger. Due to the iPhone notch, I could only read one line at a time and missed a lot of the story 3. Maybe allow us to hold down a button to have it auto click at a rate that a human could realistically click a

This game changed my sense of scale about everything. Literally everything.

This game allows me to tune everything out and PRODUCE CLIPS

Would recommend the game. Some small bugs - Clicking “activate” on an already activated artifact (possible if you have just opened the app sometimes) gives you a bunch of red error text over the screen. The only way to get rid of it is to restart the app. - There’s a button to turn on and off sound. There is no sound. Not sure why that button is there.

A mixture of nerdy, retro videogames and futuristic. A great game to play through!

(Some spoilers ahead) As far as bugs go my main issue is with how some things just lose you a bunch of progress, like returning to a world. Every time I’ve tried returning to a previous world to reach an artifact easier I end up losing the world I just reached including the artifact even though I already got to it. Another one is with the final Drone/Factory upgrades just not working properly, making phase 2 drag out for a while at the end. I really REALLY hope these bugs get fixed sometime beca

I’ve never written a review for an app before, but if any game deserved one it’d probably be this one. The UI is poor but the gameplay is the most addictive I’ve ever played. I hope this game gets more recognition and this developer make more games like this.

Great iOS edition. Wish it had iCloud saves and a better iPad version but it’s super fun to play. Thanks for the port!

Auto tourney never appears for me. I have played through twice to be sure, but it’s simply not working for me. Makes collecting Yomi *very* time consuming.

I love this game a lot but I’ve noticed I seem to be unable to get any universe exploration now that I’ve moved to world 2, is this a known bug or does it take longer and longer as you prestige?

By far the best game to play on a phone. I would love to see offline play!

This game is super entertaining and the update makes it much more fun to play over and over. One suggestion: it would be nice to have a way to sync progress over multiple devices or even the web version.

Recent updates fixed saving issue, new artifact system makes replayability possible and engaging

I believe the ability to get gifts bugged out due to the synchronize event and bored event happening at the same time. I think. Cool to see it can still be beaten with a huge nurf like that though.

An option that allows the game to run in the background so I can read the news while I collect yomi. Keep up the good work. Very impressed.

makes my brain go burr. numbers go up, am happy, numbers go down, am not happy

bug wasnt a bug, im dumb ty for fixing the game devs

Hi great game, but I ran into a breaking bug late in the game. After collecting all matter on earth, my clip production stopped working. Clips per second is 0 even with 200 factories, plenty of wire and power. What to do? :( please look into this

Someone help me. I clicked Make a Paperclip and it’s been 4 days now and my husband left me, my children are dirty and starving, and my dog has just been peeing behind the couch. But I have made a lot of paperclips.

It starts so…simply. Beware that turning off your iOS device can cause to stop working until you uninstall and reinstall, thus losing all “universe/sim level” progress. And there are other bugs, but so fun!

Noticed that if you turn on low battery mode it no longer runs at full speed. Noticed this happening once I bought Swarm Computing. Notice difference in all counting when turned on.

No time to review, the paperclips must grow.

My favorite combination of emotions.

If you’re in the mood for an existential crises, this is the game for you! No, I’m not joking.

This game is a true masterpiece. I enjoyed everything about it. The story telling was unique and gameplay was addicting. The ending was phenomenal and very thought provoking. I encourage anyone to buy this I was not disappointed.

OMG love games like this. Find the right combinations to get optimal production of paperclips 😁😁😁

i was hoping you could keep going and didnt realize that releasing the drones would end the game, but oh well

if u could make a delete save function it would be six stars

Hit several bugs. Some that did not give promised trust. Big one that late game limerick repeats result in negative creativity of 10 mil ending the game basically. Hopefully the 2 bucks per app makes them fix this crap. Five stars if fixed.

I noticed in the space stage I was unable to see the drone war. Please fix

Very engaging and rewarding to play. Perfect for killing time on road trips or long flights. Well worth the price.

This is a fun game, but reaching stage 3 was like hitting a brick wall. I feel like I’ve been painted into a corner with no way to proceed.

The second stage after you release the drones, I stopped making clips, and there wasno trust counter. Please fix this and let me continue the game.

Can you add so you can hold down the raise button

It starts so simply. Supply and demand. Thankfully demand scales to your production. And then it’s more than just paperclips. Beware that the game can get stuck at the ending and refuse to start a new game.

The game has so much in store and is a very in depth clicker game, some things I don't like about it is that the descriptions for some late game things are lack luster and hard to follow but overall worth the money and a good game

Ok, so after you release the bots and get to stage 2, you can’t get wire or harvest bots. Now I cannot do anything in the game anymore. And I don’t think the devs are working on this. ARG!!

I have been addicted to this game since 2017. The doctors are worried.

Works very similar to the browser version and it was worth the money in my opinion. If you haven’t tried this game before, try to web browser version. It’s free.

If you asked me why I like this game at all I probably wouldn’t be able to give you an answer.

This is a great game, but you have a good chance of running into a bug after a few hours of play that will break the game. It’s super frustrating and happening to lots of users. Stick with the browser version until an update is released.

No way to see full screen. Screen does not allow rotation. Stuck scrolling to see clippers and eventually ops etc. what a horrendous interface. Better to play the web version. Love the game. HATE the ipad interface.
