Needs more transparency & fairness

I like this game, it’s one of the only games that are true to the ads, and it’s certainly a challenge. But I think it needs to be made fairer for players to progress further, otherwise they’ll end up getting bored.

I’ve been stuck on level 6 - suburbia & stage 3 of the challenge for level 5 - city bridge (2 bosses spawn and - 50% xp needed to level up). On the challenge in particular, I keep getting to the third round of boss fights and then it ends midway through, even when I clearly have plenty of health. It appears that there’s a timer under the bosses health bars and when that timer fills up, you lose. At no point is it communicated that this stage is timed, I just thought that the bosses were colliding with me and taking half my hp at a time, but no, it won’t let me take out the bosses health quick enough.

On every level, there comes a point when there’s just so many monsters that they cover the whole screen and it’s hard to keep track of the bigger monsters that drop items, or even items from crates. There have been times when I’ve just collected food or got enough xp to level up and then died before I get to choose what items I want next, which is also rather unfair.

I’m upgrading my character whenever I get the chance but it’s making 0 difference. The game needs to be more fairer for the player.

Good game, but misleading ads

Ok so let me start with the negative because that’s why I’m writing this: All those ads you see about “wow this skill is crazy good use this”? They’re all fake. There is no laser gun. There is no bug swarm. There is no winds of destruction or whatever it’s called. They don’t exist. Don’t get the game if you’re hoping for those.

However, gameplay wise, it’s exactly as advertised. You run around with what equipment *does* exist in the game, kill zombies and bugs or whatever, get better stuff, and do it all again. There’s no forced ads which is a nice change of pace from similar games, and while progress isn’t super fast, playing purely without purchases won’t halt you too much.

If you can handle repetitive gameplay and the fact that the ads outright lie about what high level skills exist, then I’d suggest trying it out. But I can’t sit here and pretend like they don’t absolutely lie to you with their ads, especially when I was duped by them myself.

Amazing Game

This game is really amazing in every way possible and I truly believe anyone can enjoy this game. I got this game when I went to a summer camp one day because I was bored and my friends were taking naps to kill time which I also should have done but didn’t cause why would I so I got this game with barely any WiFi and I immediately fell in love with it.
First off this game is free to play and has no ads, at least none I have seen. Your able to pay for good starter packs but you really don’t have too. The graphics of this game are amazing in every way and I truly believe the Devs know what they are doing, along with those graphics this game has a perfect level of challenge. Weapon upgrades are consistent and amazing and I like that you can choose your weapon of choice. Clan joining is a little funky but understandable…..I don’t know if it’s just a me thing or everyone else has trouble but I had trouble joining when I first got the game that might just be me though.
Overall the game is amazing from graphics to story and it’s truly one the best no WiFI games out there and. I would like to give a huge shoutout to the team responsible for making this game, you guys are amazing and you have really made a masterpiece. Keep doing a good job and GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK TO ALL SURVIVORS.

Unbelievable greed

Dont normally write reviews but felt obligated on this one with the level of greed. Imagine paying $13 to have ads removed only to find out it lasts only a month and need to pay $13 again. Unbelievable.

Perfect game

Honestly cant think of a single thing wrong.

I’ve played so many moblie games and this is the only one i’ve stuck to for so long, haven’t missed a single log in since downloading it, the levels are fantastic and I love the steamroll mode when you’re too strong for certain levels. Plus having constant alternate options for when you run out of energy is super helpful, especially given the rewards are just as good.

Cant wait to see how things develop from here I genuinely really enjoy playing this and the diversity of the events is so refreshing.

Simply… amazing!

I’m going to be honest the game seems like its gonna a crappy mobile game but it’s not. It’s not to hard but not ez just level up your gear for a better chance. I love the game only a couple issues. First when the bikini bottom event was like it was impossible to beat plankton no matter what I did and the pumpkin gambling thing never stopped so I had to close the game to get of the mini game screen. Another small issue is when you complete a level or loose it says the continue button in what I think is Chinese. Also another minor problem is if you have gear that you can merge one you have merged it it continues to keep saying you can merge stuff when you can’t which is weird. Lastly you unlock pets at stage 9 but I didn’t know and bought some during the bikini bottom event and now won’t get them and lost out on other things which is annoying and I want them back. Oh and the daily game or whatever on the bottom right with a chance of coins is hard and I don’t think it’s worth playing. That was only critical stuff but the game is generally very good. Also I want more player/ co op interaction and mini games such as the Halloween candy game thing was boring and the minigame I said was not working

Top tier content.

Great game with well thought out features. Programmer: If you deem it worthwhile, please consider adding the feature to have the game automatically select an upgrade for you, when there is only one option available, during combat. It can get a bit annoying having to select the same single skill choice when you are well upgraded and skill options are coming up constantly.

Just pay to win now.

Been playing since 2022 and it was fun at first when things were balanced. Hitting the end goal in events was achievable, things were priced fairly for those who wanted to pay and in game hours translated to fair rewards and there was only a slight advantage in pay to win. It was a fun game to grind away at and kill time.

2024 and the pay walls are everywhere in the game. You login and it brings up in game ads or “discounts”. Yes everynow and then they give us reward drops but they don’t help with anything. The subscriptions are short and overpriced. You cannot reach the high tiers without paying or dedicating nearly all your time to playing the game. For example, to upgrade your S tier stuff, you can only get the gear from special drops, or 1 in every 50 from the loot box which is payed by in gems or keys but those are equally annoying to obtain in good amounts. The character upgrades are even worse and are priced beyond reason.

At the end of the day, I’d say don’t waste your time cause you’ll never get to the stuff in the ads without paying or no lifing it as unfortunately it seems they have shaped the game around the few players who pay copious amounts of money.

Total W game

I really enjoyed this total W game but the one thing I really want you devs to add is a multiplayer mode so you can fight zombies with your friends or just someone random. This game is officially my top favorite game and the graphics are not bad either. Please add the multiplayer mode I really want you to :)

Very annoying

5000 screens every time you open the game showing you a tiny reward or a thing you can buy. The game progress is painfully slow, and there’s just too much hollow padding without enough actual substance.
