I play on an iPad Mini 2 and a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 2015.
For general game play:
I can sometimes zip across town on the Samsung, but forget it on the iPad - drag, drag, drag from one side of town to the other.
Both lag horribly after using the Job Manager until everyone gets where they're going.
In THOH stuff (both devices):
Tap a Nightmare or FT and the game freezes for 3 seconds, unfreezes for a second, then freezes for 3 more seconds while it collects. That's if I hit ONE. If I hit multiples it takes longer.
When I do the campfire payout it takes at least half a minute for the animation to end and the Nightmares to appear if everyone is coming out at once (mornings). During the day I stagger them in groups of 4 so it only takes about 10 seconds.
The same is true for Heights and Railyard crafting. 3 second lag on assigning to task, big time lag when I do the payouts.
This is caused by the way they've re-written the communication routines. Every time you do a crafting tap the game has to talk to the server (Zombie tapped, Brain collected, Gummie collected, Zombie tapped, Brain collected, Gummie collected, Zombie tapped, Brain collected, Gummie collected...) and every time you tap for a payout at the Campfire, Heights store, or Recycling plant it stops and reports each one individually.
And since I'm on slow a** satellite internet...
