  • Good Game however….

    This is a good game to play, however….. it is more of a pay to play as you level up. The amount of gold required vs what you get in return is ridiculously stupid. You have to pay like 10 gold for one bullet to increase your bullet stash. If your patient you can watch a video every 12 hrs and get 2 bars of gold so after about 36 hrs you too could be the proud owner of 1 bullet! Some levels your just not going to beat unless you play 20-30 bars of gold and that even if you good hands. Over all it’s a good game with a good concept.
  • Great to see a game using Poker Mechanics again

    Great game, one of the last-standing poker battle games. Please consider a faster enemy animations/battle speed option and PLEASE remove the bullet”energy” timer and just let people play the game.
  • Good game

    Ads are a little heavy but I like it.
  • A fun game limited by waiting on the clock

    It’s a fun concept and an amusing game but it is ruined by having to constantly wait for resources that are necessary to play. I literally spend 4 hours not playing the game for 30 minutes of getting to participate. It’s slowly killing itself and at some point the tediousness will out way the fun and it’ll be deleted.
  • Bug?

    Fun game to play but it won’t open since I updated to IOS 14.
    Is there an update coming?
  • Seductively a pay-to-play game

    I was enjoying playing this game through the first two stages of the story missions, I even paid a few dollars to gain resources, and do upgrades, but then I noticed that there was a significant change in the odds of landing winning point hands. So I started capturing every card played and hands for a little more than three hundred hands. Guess what, the more you advance in the story missions, the more videos you have to watch or the more you have to buy. Why? Because your statistically going to have high card and pair hands after the first ten milestones of the third stage or area. Also your hit points and health will be about 1/3 of the AI opponent and your bullet count unless purchased up will not be enough to complete the stage without purchases or watching a hundred add videos. My suggestion find a fair poker game, not this one. I emailed support and they swear they have a random card generator, but facts are facts and the patterns are there.

    Developer Response

    Sorry to hear you are finding the game too much of a pay-to-play game. As mentioned, the game uses a true random card generator based on a real poker card deck to deal the cards. Compare to a classic Poker game, there are ways to increase the chances of getting a strong hand by either using the Wildcard or using specific character abilities. In terms of difficulty, try regularly upgrading your attack and health in order to keep up with the AI opponents. Hope this will help you progress and change your mind about the game.
  • Relaxing

    It’s a great game to play while relaxing, however it could use a little more like more challenges for rewards and maybe more tournaments like the timed one you just had, other than that it’s a chilled relaxing game
  • Great game!

    This game is a really nice change of pace from all the clones out there. I’ve been playing since the release and have been making steady progress. The ability to increase the number of bullets was a nice upgrade. I’m not really sure what the point of the PvP is. It’s not like you get anything for competing. The cost of upgrading totems feels high given how little you really get per win. The one thing that would be a nice change would be to move the All In “button”. It should be with the 3 and 6 bullet bet buttons when it becomes applicable. Down next to the bullet counter you just don’t see it... Keep up the great work. I look forward to playing every day.

    Thanks a bunch for the 4-star review and for the suggestions. We are very happy to hear you are enjoying the game and will take them into consideration as we keep updating the game. We are actually working on improvements to the PvP and will be releasing that soon. Thanks for playing and stay awesome.
  • Enemy crit rates

    Great game but once you get to the sharpshooter/sharptooth enemies they might as well just do double damage like the gunslinger because they crit literally every time. Maybe tone that down a bit, yeah?
  • fun BUT,

    This game is very enjoyable to play.
    I find myself coming back to it quite often.
    I like the artwork as well.

    Advice for the developers: I would like to see more rewards for climbing in multiplayer..not much incentive.
    More content would be awesome I would spend more time in it if there was something to do. We need to get more bang for our buck. It’s not worth it to pay real money to advance, get chests or whatever. I understand developers need money to make a game better. This is how I’ve seen other good games become great games.
