It’s alright but has balance issues
This game was balanced around needing to watch adverts to get 3x coins. I didn’t watch any adverts and I’m soft locked on level 25, it isn’t possible to get through the first wall with what I’ve been able to afford (my abilities are level 7 and 10).
It’s a fun reimagining of the snake block game, just don’t play if you don’t like adverts because it becomes impossible and if somehow you did get through there will be others.
Also I don’t like how much variation blocks can have between runs, you can learn the layout and plan but oh no 2 cops you were relying on were on blocks that were too high and now you can’t win. I understand some variance but when it’s between being possible and impossible it’s just annoying.

Level 25
It will take forever to pass level 25 if you haven’t watched any ad bonuses.
Glitchy
God forbid your good at the game if you collect to many cops at the when you fight the gang you game will lag out and shut off. At first I though it was my phone so I restarted it and tried again same thing. However same level but finally get an upgrade when I was able to fight the gang with less officers and it worked find. So if you just wanna play for upgrades and not skill it’s a fun game. Good little time killer and had a lot of fun till that lagging started happening and I have to play 50 game to get an upgrade so I can fight the gang with less officers not fun anymore. :( I hope they read this and fix that bug.

My honest opinion as a designer
It’s a take on the classic “Invaders” side scroller shooter game. Very basic control scheme and upgrade system.
Two upgrades
-Fire Power
-Firing Speed
The upgrades cost a lot forcing you to watch ads, which you might as well since you have a 75% chance to have an automatic ad after each round. There’s no option besides turning off the vibration, there’s not real challenge to the game what so ever. It’s a shame because I do see a lot of potential to make a good game here but it honestly just reminds me of the games most game designers make their first year of college. It was fun to waste a little time while waiting for my girlfriend to get ready, but honestly I’m not going to return to this game at any point and I’m going to remove it from my phone after writing this review. If there were less ads I would say this is a good game for someone 6-12 years old, besides that it has no depth or replay able value what so ever.
2.5/5 very basic game.

Great idea but too buggy and unfair ads
So first, this is a really fun game, easy to understand and easy to play for a minute or an hour. It would get five stars....
Except first, as so many other reviews have said, it crashes at the end of a run. That’s not terrible at lower levels, because it’s fun to replay the run and win again. As you get up in levels it’s extremely frustrating to get to the end of a run (with all the BS that entails, see below) and then have the app crash. Again. And again.
Second, the ads. Playing a game for free implies that you will watch some ads, and I don’t have a problem with that basic arrangement. It’s totally fair for this game to offer three times the reward if you watch an ad at the end of the run. But I seriously resent being forced to watch an ad after every run, some of which are 15 seconds or longer. It’s quite possible that you will spend more time watching ads than playing. It’s all about choices: this developer chooses to run ads that interfere with the game, and I choose to delete the game.

Not impressed!
Someone needs to remind the devs that upgrading your skills should make the game easier, not harder! Getting the option to upgrade your firepower was great except the number of hits each target would need increased too. Upgraded my rate of fire and the same thing!
Did I mention that you have to press the upgrade button multiple times to get it to respond?

So many bugs.
This game has the potential to be a lot of fun. I downloaded this game a few days ago and have nothing but problems with the game. It glitches out at the end of the level almost every time and I am left with no way to complete a level. It's really hard to have to continuously watch ads just to get an upgrade. Everytime you upgrade, the cost goes up by a few thousand coins, and you can only get a handful of coins without having to watch an ad. I'd be willing to give a better review if the daily glitches could be fixed.
I've decided to delete the game after the continuous crashes. I'm looking forward to another developer making a better version of this game.

So hard to advance
This game, overall, is so much fun. But I’m about to delete it. I’m not that far into the game and I’m like 17,000 away from the next upgrade. There is literally no way to get passed the current level without more upgrades. There is no option to go back and play previous levels where you earn more for beating the level, so I’m stuck spending hours playing the same ten seconds of the current level, over and over and over and OVER getting less than 200 each time I beat it, IF I want to watch the ad every time. That is not fun. The upgrades get way too expensive way too quickly. It’s disproportionate to how quickly the difficulty of the levels increase. One simple update to either slow the cost increase of the upgrades or slow the increase of level difficulty would take this from a 2 to a 5 Star for me.

Learn to make a game
Honestly for free games I don’t keep my expectations high I expect the ads I don’t expect A++ content but I do expect something playable, something you have a chance to beat with skill, not with you’ve replayed this level enough you can now buy an upgrade to barely beat it. And also I swear my characters are dying before they get the chance to make it behind my guy to shoot and on top of that when I want to kill myself my guy literally walks through the obstacle. No clip. Just runs through, and proceeds to get beat by 30 robbers. There’s no sound, no customization, it’s barely even the game shown in the ad. This apps deleted I have never hated an app so much. Get it together

I really like the game but...
Okay so I really am enjoying this game, and I do not mind the ads, but I get to a point in the game where I am thousands of coins away from the next upgrade and I physically cannot get past a level because my upgrades are not strong enough. I lose interest and fun, but I don’t want to stop. Instead, I am trying to get by with 15 coins (after watching an ad) for a bajillion rounds so I can pass the level. Also, I think it defeats the purpose of increasing the amount the grey cylinders when I get the damage upgrade. Damage upgrades should make the game easier, but it doesn’t completely. But I give 4 stars because I love this game!
