Bid Wars 2: Auction Simulator Wiki

Started playing the other Bid Wars game and stumbled across this game through one of the ads. I found this game to be more interesting and engaging than the other Bid Wars game because of the storyline and missions. I barely look at the other Bid Wars game now and find myself spending hours on this one. Disappointingly, around level 14 it kind of all comes to a halt. The couple missions available are nearly impossible to achieve and it seems like no matter how many times you win bids and sell items in the pawn shop, you don’t get any further. I am on level 15 now and not much has changed. I have amounted an enormous amount of cash but seem to have nothing to spend it on. Still playing hoping to get past this rut and hopefully start getting more missions before losing interest entirely.

This game is one of if not THE best game on my phone. Its gets really hard further into the and i think that most mobile games now adays are too easy and never have a challenge that never too hard to pass. I personally don’t recommend making in-app purchases and especially not for this. But I just bought a really good pack so I can get more trunk space. I personally rate this game as a 9.7/10. And yes there are some boring bits and some ads but with the ads they aren’t mandatory you don't need to watch them to play. Again would recommend if you are bored, have nothing else to play, are looking for a fun mobile experience or just have some time to kill during commercials or in between your online classes.

I play both games and I admit that the original was fun, but did get old because they didn’t seem to have large differences from one city to another. It seems like the reason to keep playing that one is to see when the large items ie. cars will appear. I enjoy this one way more and like the phone calls with the side missions. I especially like that the side missions have great incentives. Oh, I also like that you can see what the other bidders win when they outbid you. I often wondered what in the world was in their units when they profit large amounts. Funny enough my husband was the one that found these games, and I love them!!

I played this one and the firstI stopped playing the first one because once you got to a certain level or you could not win any more if you want a unit you had to overspend, otherwise you would constantly lose the units So you would end up losing money either way but in the first one making money back was not as easy so once you lost the money you could eventually go bankrupt and just be stuck at a standstill That is definitely not the case with this new game there are so many different ways to make money and expand your empire a much better set up I believe

Just bought the casino and I got to pay 500 in game cash but then get in and pay 0.99 that dumb if I got to pay in game money to start it then have to pay real money to use it that dumb I want my 500 back like really dude and even if I watch a ad to get gold well guess what It is still paying just we ain’t paying you like cmon and something for free players to get dude and then new gamble spots pay to win to I ain’t even get to use special ones 1 time because you got to pay for gold bars then I just watched ad until it ain’t let me now I realize your just updating to get money not for our appreciation I am done with this game add a free special place that cost a lot of in game cash and ad a casino game that cost in game cash like come on the one that cost 0.99 cents could have been better if you also had the choice to pay in game cash and not just 0.99 cents because that probable worth about 1000 or 100 in game cash so do that or add one that just cost in game cash

I’ve had fun playing this game. Managed to get all the way to level 15 with $100k and nearly a full run of rare items. What I don’t like about the game is that I stopped getting missions from my original cell phone & only get missions from ppl at the college. Maybe I need to continue to see what happens once the college missions are complete, but I feel like I’m at a standstill. A college mission will say “know 2 facts about the brass comet” for example, but the game doesn’t hint where to get them. So I waste energy playing levels that won’t benefit me in finding the “mission” rare items I’m looking for. I’ve also rented 3 properties & opened Mutt’s shop. I’m waiting to buy another property at level 16, but I hope I more to look forward to than being able to rent another house & open a new auction. Game is becoming predictable.

It’s fun but I have some recommendations on how to improve the game: 1. Lower your prices & offer a one time purchase not a subscription. Your game is fun but I’m not willing to pay that high a price, especially when your purchase isn’t even permanent. It’s just a subscription. 2. Better quality/more realistic graphics 3. Have the option for more sales shelfs to buy 4. Make the Pawn Shops inside look more like a real store instead of having brown boxes that represent shelves 5. Make the actual shop (outside & inside especially), your car etc more customizable (color/pattern/model) choices etc) & add more cars. 6. Add the ability to sell some items “online” in the game, like a fictional version of EBay. 7. (This May be included later in the game so if it is then disregard) But have the ability to own multiple Pawn Shops in different cities. 8. Be able to name your Pawn Shop 9. Consider lowering the price for a premium version of the game. 10. Offer easy access to technical support & an easy way to report bugs. I’ve played free games that make it much easier to report bugs & other technical issues. Keep up the good work on the game! It’s fun.

I just started out with the game and so far I can say it’s really great. Although there would be a few things I would change. First of all I like how you can exchange gold bars for money but I wish you could exchange money for energy because you don’t get that much energy in the game and I don’t want to watch a lot of videos to keep filling up the energy meter, also I wish that you wouldn’t have to wait so long for offers (meaning like the longest should be 20 minutes) mainly because it goes in real time and it costs a lot of money to keep upgrading, but I can’t upgrade without money and I make a lot of money from selling high priced items, but those items take 30 minutes or more for and offer.

I am enjoying the game but I can see where I’m going to abandon it pretty quickly. The game is following the model where you use up energy and then have to wait for it to refill before you can play again...unless you purchase more! I am willing to watch ads to get more energy but I’m not willing to buy it. That being said, I’m also not willing to spend more time watching ads then I am playing the game. This is a pretty standard model, and I realize developers need to get paid, but my history with this approach means I will be abandoning this game soon. If you want to keep people like me engaged have the ads provide enough energy for another round OR allow me to buy energy with in game currency.

As a bidding game goes, the game is fun. I’ve run across a few issues that need to be fixed. Roughly 30% of the time after watching adds, you get no reward. They are the ads that take up the bottom half of the screen. Restarting app usually fixes it, but it’s annoying! Mutts house will sometimes return bid bucks lower than the item is worth that you traded for! AI needs to be fixed there- it should only return items. At one point I lost a car full of auction items after watching the 30% boost ad - that was annoying because it included a bunch of rare items. Gold costs get a bit crazy to open single slots in auction house. If you are going to require gold to shorten bid response times, it should apply to all items you have for sale!

Update: nobody in their right mind will pay $4.99 for a car on the game. Add to the city, give more options, let us build more, and no, we don’t want to pay real money to do it. For the love of God, could you make it at least sunny instead of the constant dark? Need to add more product instead of the same stuff all the time. Add more city’s to compete in. Add ways to make gold without watching videos. Monthly, yearly challenges to go with the daily and weekly. Why have extras so expensive? I don’t want to spend 50 gold to add to the shelves. Add more small challenges for the phone thing. Change stuff and you’ll get more players. I can honestly see why people aren’t playing anymore. I’ve only been playing for a hand full of months and I already have it beat.

The game is very good but it needs more options better things to evaluate and more value for them but I think it’s a cool game it needs more things of value to auction better cars better places better gold money jewelry etc. I almost forgot there’s a couple of times I’ve played in this took in my gold it goes out sometimes and then I have to reopen the game again but sometimes I open or I get done with something and it takes me out of the whole game I get it is glitches but I don’t give me my money back or my Gold thank you yes the auctions need to have better things so you can auction off get more money like autographed baseball cards and jackets from famous people are me better guns better weapons better cars but it’s all good I still like the game even though it freezes and sometimes like I said before when you’re ordering stuff for it it takes your money or your goal and then you have to reopen the recloser and reopen it again in the stuff freezing but besides that it’s still good takes your gold

When I try to watch an ad, weather it be for gold or to keep bargaining with someone, sometimes the screen goes black and will only show half the add and when I go to hit the x, half the screen will stay black and i'll only be able to see the left side of my game. it's getting really annoying, I've lost really rare items I've never seen bc there's nothing I can do other than close the app and go back in. As we level up you should decrease the amount of time needed for offers on objects. it's getting ridiculous to wait 2+ hours. and if you're going to give us rewards, MAKE THEM WORTH WHILE! When you're level 3 and you're gonna get $300 and one gold bar? WOW THATS GREAT! When you're level 12 and still getting the same amount of gold, cash AND rp (or whatever you call the stuff that levels you up) then what's the point? This is really disappointing.

Just reached a main quest that I cannot pass without actually paying money to complete. It’s a casino quest, spin the wheel 2 times and the slot 4 times. The slot was already expensive, as the lowest bet was 15 gold bars per spin, but I had been saving them and watching all the free ad videos I could. However, on the wheel, I was only able to buy one spin with gold bars. I cannot get a second spin without paying $2.99, so now the game will be deleted because I’m not paying for it. Offering OPTIONAL upgrades is fine for people who want to pay, but for those of us that can’t, it shouldn’t be in the main story. Very sad too, I was enjoying a free game where my only competition was myself. Well, onto the next app. Edit: I downloaded and started over just to ensure that I had never used an extra spin before a quest came up, and I did not. Now I’m stuck on the same quest number again, because ironically, the slot spinner requirement is now only 1 spin! But the problem was always the wheel of fortune, and it is still a problem. I’m not paying $2.99 for a spin on principle because I have to or I’m stuck in no man’s land. I MIGHT at least consider it if the prizes were better, but it’s so not worth it! Time to get rid of this again.
