Storm8 Slots is the ONLY slots game I like! Honestly my addiction for the past 15 years! As of today, I cant play anymore. It looks like its because I have androids? Phone and tablet. Is this why? What to do...???? Other slots are wayyy to busy & flashy with too much stuff all jammed onto one screen. They start you off with like a million bucks....but I prefer more realistic. Like Storm8 slots. Start out small and work my way up to bigger balances and bets. Is there another slot game that's similar? Or another way to play again? I miss it!! read more

The Fashion story game will steal from you. It has STOLEN over 120 gems from me. No one will answer me they just keep closing my ticket automatically read more

storm8 games is getting ridiculous. I sent them a suggestion request about some things not being right in a game and they cancelled it right away saying I need to do it on their forum. so I try to get to the forum and can't get on there at all. there's all these messages about if you need on the forum contact support. BUT YOU CANT. there's no way to get a hold of these people and they don't care to fix any issues you bring up. read more

The old customer service was lovely (~4 years ago). They would respond fast and personal, being friendly and look what they can do for you, like it is supposed to be. I mean thats what customer service is there for and what the people working inside getting paid for. Now they replaced it for some non existing "service" where support agents just copy+paste instead of reply, don't even answer one question and for that you now even wait 5-30 days (28 in my case). I was friendlier than the support agent, eventhough he is the one getting paid for this and all I got is nothing. As a customer for nearly six years, eventhough I didn't used services over all this time, that's a shame and I wasn't the only one being treated like this - It just became another typical "large company service" where they have no control anymore about their things or it would be too much work so they just decide to hire some unqualified people to keep customers quiet. So better search for other games from other companys, because eventhough the developers made a good job with the games itself it will use you nothing if your account was deleted for no reason and in fact there is no service and nothing to help - It will be just wasted time and there are tons of other companies with a better customer service, where you at least get an answer. read more

Nice office in Redwood city full of smart people making games; what more can you ask for? They are hiring like crazy and they are literally the top iPhone gaming company in the Valley so they are doing something right. I met with all the founders and thoroughly enjoyed my afternoon with their engineering team. Looking forward to seeing what they release next. read more

i would give 0 Stars if i could. I play fashion story/restaurant story/dragon story/bakery story, Bakery Story 2 and Restaurant Story 2. At first the games were pleasant to play, then it became quite the opposite. Most goals were impossible to reach without paying real money. Time for events is way too sure. You needed money everyhwhere if you wanted a slight chance to win one item in the game. I spent money on decorations items but this pay to win mentality made me quit. After i decided to give Restaurant Story 2 and Bakery Story 2 one last chance,they support told me the deleted my account because of an long time of inactivity. This is an classic ripp off: They take your money, you quit the game for a long time, if you ever want to come back the will tell you the deleted your progress and Account. This is a scam. This is an Ripp off. Any good Gaming Company would never delete your progress without even asking you. But this what they did to me. They all use you all like milking cows for Cash.Stay away from such an greedy unfair ripp off company. it is not worth it. And oh the harassment, bullying people mentionited here, that is true, each word of it, i even got bullied for not visiting my neighbours daily. The Community is pure toxic. read more

They make FANTASTIC games. I was once so engrossed with Jewel Mania that I didn't put on pants for that entire day! True story not really! I've had lunch at the office a few times as well. Any office that serves up french toast and thick bacon for lunch and pork belly sandwiches for dinner is tops in my book. TOPS. read more

There is no customer service.it is sad because you want to like their games but them they won't help you at all. Lag time in response between you clicking in something and it coming up can cause unintentional pirchases for things you didnt want to purchase for instance a dish takes one hour to make you miss it and it spoils you click on it get no response click again and it charges you 5 diamonds to u spoil something that takes less than 2 hours to make so it cost 1 diamond to make why would anyone give up 5 diamonds over 1 Yesterday there were 2 days left to complete task this but this morning they skipped 21 hours to have only 3 hours to complete. I could go on but what you need to know is I wrote them and I get no answer and when they do they tell me they don't credit for unintentional purchases. read more

I really appreciate their games and my niece & nephew are completely engaged without breaking the bank. They have many options to choose from, but they always gravitate towards the Storm 8 games! read more

Storm8 has very entertaining games, however they are seriously deficient in providing a safe gaming environment. We have just recently gotten a block button in response to numerous complaints about the inability for players to filter out unsavory characters. However there is another serious safety issue that the company is refusing to address. Like many other people, I use cut and paste to leave a standard message on other players' walls while I am playing, as I play with hundreds of people. Typically, this will be a quote, a joke, a friendly greeting, or a design made with emoticons. Unfortunately, as I also use my device for other things besides gaming, I am also using cut and past e for other purposes. As the device remembers the last thing I cut and paste, it has happened three times now that I have accidentally pasted confidential information on a game board and hit the "post" button before I realized what I have done. As Storm 8 does not offer any way for senders to edit or recall their messages once they are posted, this information stays posted until the recipient deletes it. If the recipient deletes it. Storm 8 takes several days to respond to calls for help on matters like this, and then it takes several emails back and forth to get anything useful done about it. This is a serious safety concern. Storm 8 is totally uninterested in doing anything about it. It is not safe to play these games, which is unfortunate because they are good games. read more

Storm 8 / Teamlava has very bad customer service. It can take weeks For a resonce and it's computer generated and generic. The games force closes So much and resets while trying to play. Plus the many pop ups that you are trying to close while Playing. Because of this I have accudeny purchased gems. Apparently there is a 15 min time to reset your password if you just used it like downloading an app. You than log on your game and try to get past the many ads clicking and closing and BAM you just purchased gems with your credit card with out typing your password no confirmation. Now some of these gems cost $59.00 to $99.00 Expensive for a child's game. I honestly believe the company can do better by fixing the many existing issues in the game. There are thousands of very young children that play as iTunes has rated the game +4 and up. So parents assume its safe Now there's no block player button and despite many complaints the company refuses to add them to protect our chIldren from cyber abuse. This is an amazing game with great potential yet the lack of customer support makes this game very undesirable and looks bad on the company. I will change my review towhee they add gem confirmation purchases and spending. Also a block player feature to protect our children. I also would like to note despite teamlava stating in the terms you must be 14 or older to play iTunes rates it safe for 4 year olds. So the company needs to update the information on iTunes or put up another pop up when players install that states you are over 14 and have a patents permission to play the game and agree to the terms. I have seen it on other games. Im not saying they make bad games as they are great. But the company needs to fix a few things for our safety and our wallets. read more

Storm 8 has shady business practices. Not only do most of their games contain "gem traps" (requiring repetitive taps that sometimes result in spending real money by accident) but their customer service and customer management is atrocious. They engage in leery tactics like doubling the prices in their game overnight, and when customers complain about it, they delete the complaints and even ban people from the game altogether. Not sure what they seek to accomplish by blocking free speech, but all it's doing is driving away the adult, paying demographic leaving them with children & preteens who either have no money or spend their parents money unwittingly, opening up Storm 8 to more complaints from angry parents. I don't see how Storm 8 can continue annual or even quarterly growth like this. I'm sure we'll see a downward slide like we've seen with many Facebook game companies like Playfish and even Zynga. read more

If it were possible to rate this company zero stars that would be my rating. I have played their games for entertainment purposes, spending several hundred dollars. Spending money is not the problem... The issue is that they have traps in the games that cause you to unwittingly spend a high amount of gems (what you buy with your real cash) when you didn't intend to. After spending over $900 on playing one game with no complaints the game trapped me into spending gems that cost me $35. When I asked for assistance they refused to help me. I would avoid this company at all costs. Avoid playing any games attached to Team Lava or Storm 8. read more

I've enjoyed playing storm 8/team lava games, bakery story, restaurant story, and farm story, for over a year. If you had asked me what I thought of their products prior to May 2012, it would have been a stellar 5 star review. However, recent experiences with harassment by adults and underaged players have made their games unpalatable. Despite repeated emails sent to team lava with screen shots, I am still being harassed. It has come to the point where I fear whether or not the players will move their harassment from the virtual world to the real world. To make the situation even more frustrating, I have been suspended from their games when I tried to fight back and when I attempted to help others being harassed along with me. The harassers, though, are still doing what they do without any disciplinary actions by team lava. For months, perhaps years, players have asked for a ban or an ignore feature on their walls so that they have the power in their own hands to stop harassment immediately. To this day, this is something team lava has not provided. Instead, they are busy raising the prices of items players can purchase. And, they work diligently to provide players every other week with new appliances that cost too many coins and cook too few recipes. Unless these critical problems are rectified, I cannot continue to support this company. read more

Can't give these losers a -star so the one will have to do. I wouldn't recommend this company if it were to save my mothers life. I have played several games for several years. I only play with adults. When I get what I call roaches on my wall begging, demanding to play, be in their stupid groups or what you, what this company does is not only take paying customers money for their over priced shit, but when you reach out for their help in solving harassment from dumb ass kids, they suspend YOUR account and the rats continue harassing others. You can call, good luck with that. The NEVER answer, push a ton of buttons in hopes to navigate to a live person only to have their sorry phone system hang up on you eventually. I HATE THEM AND ALL THEY STAND FOR. Keepin' my $$$$ where the hell it belongs. read more

The games are constantly shutting down, undying your progress and costing you money. The imbeciles at Storm 8 refuse to acknowledge any of these problems and keep sending me the same obnoxious emails basically saying it's me and not the game. Virtually every negative review here says the same thing. The company is a joke and the staff is an even bigger joke. read more

I have been playing these Storm 8 games for a year now. I have observed and have been bullied/harassed on Bakery Story and Restaurant Story repeatedly...Team Lava has done little to stop this. After sending numerous screen shots from a harasser on different "neighbors" walls and mine, the harasser bragged on my wall as well as others that they gave him a "second chance." He was not suspended for his actions at this time and all I received was the canned reply that disciplinary action has been taken. He continued harassing and bragging. I tried to help my neighbors, as they summoned me to take screen shots of the abuse to send to Team Lava. Instead, all they did was try to track me talking about the harassment, so they could give me a 3 day suspension! I'm still playing the game...and still see this same person tormenting people for fun. I do not feel safe to send any screen shots to Team Lava, as they use this as an excuse to track you instead. All this can be resolved by a BLOCK button on our walls, to prevent these harassers to continue. This has been suggested for a very long time on Team Lava forums, but their priority is to set up "gem traps" and place annoying ads for more of their games. read more

Location is convenient, plus catered lunches and dinners -- what else can you ask for?! It's awesome to never have to worry about what to eat, especially since nothing is really within walking distance apart from Specialty's. Go Stormies! read more

I can't go lower than 1 star and still get this to post. Wow, what a horrible company, they have the ability to develop very good games, however they cannot treat their paying customers with any amount of respect. Constant editing and deletion of "negative" posts on the fan site, multiple changes to rules of game events during the actual event. Example, to kick off a new event, announce that it is not a timed event, then two weeks later change the rules without any notice, and the event is now timed and will end in 24 hours. Additionally they have real $ cash traps built into each and every game, where you buy "gems" or "gold" something with real money, then within the game, they have "Buy With Gems" buttons all over the place with no "Confirmation" buttons. They do this in every game, and proclaim they have no control and are unable to change the way that the processes operate. This company, over sees TeamLava Inc. which is the company that originally came up with the way to steal $ by not introducing Confirmation buttons, TL used Storm 8 to track their player base and have user log-ins\ons. Over the last few months either S8 has bought TL or TL has been turned over to S8, either way, Storm 8 is now the head of this Hydra. The games are addictive, so be warned... their business practices are right down dirty. Final note, if you attempt to contact them and say you purchased something with real life $ by accident in the game and can you get a refund, their response is "We can't tell what you bought with real money tokens, you must have used the things you bought with real money ... so no, we won't give you a refund... ever." Avoid them read more

Storm8 has been sued for gathering information. They IMHO have an excessive amount of rude crude comments they allow in their games that sometimes they suspend the player, sometimes they ban the player totally and other times they ignore the complaints claiming they can't see the comments. They turn a blind eye to accounts being stolen after someone has invested time and money into the account. IMHO in some cases take part in the theft of the accounts after the account is sold or purchased the old owner goes back in and claims the account was stolen after the person they sold the account to has invested time and money into improving an account Storm8 will go and remove the account from the purchaser and return it to the seller. The Storm8 games are full of cheats. Research Storm8 stolen itunes accounts see how many charges are coming up to the purchase of storm8 items. IMHO Storm8 is rude to its customers and makes very little effort to make sure their customers are satisfied on a regular basis. read more
