  • Super fun game, however

    I have had this game for a long time. It USED to be VERY enjoyable. Strategy, challenge, fun all well balanced with minimal ads for a free game. Maybe every few levels an ad. Since the most recent update the ads are out of control. Takeover a tower BOOM AD TIME, lose a tower BOOM ANOTHER AD, just finished a level BOOM another ad, just finished watching an ad how about another ad!! It used to be if you wanted a 2x boost for a tricky level you could watch an ad. Now it’s whether you want it or not it’s ad city. Sometimes 5+ in one level. I’m well beyond level 150 and getting so many ads the game is unplayable. Fix it!! Another small gripe I have is after level 100 the levels just repeat. No end, no additional challenge just the same basic levels over an over. And the scenery switch for coins is totally pointless. Where’s the gain? What’s the point of coins. This game would be ALOT better if they added different towers, and new levels and reduced the ads back to the original amount.

  • It freezes for a moment while playing

    I enjoy playing the game but recently I been running through a issue where the game will freeze after a couple of seconds while playing and continues after a couple of second then it repeats its getting annoying also why the game restarts automatically when you close the app for a second then go back to it?? I will be playing a level and closed the app for a moment and when I go back I have to replay the level I was playing all the way from the beginning

  • More ads than game

    Highly addictive and fun game with one critical flaw - ads for other games. Play for 30 seconds and you will get 10-30 seconds worth of other game ads. Complete a level and you get a 30 second ad. Restart a level and you get an ad plus a second ad when you start again. Longer levels will have several ad breaks. Some levels are either too easy OR impossible from the start which forces you to restart and…. You guessed it, another ad.

    Look, I get it. A free game has to make its money from somewhere. But when the ads have more screen time than the game, it makes me think of the line from the movie Ready Player One - “We have determined that we’ll be able to fill 80% of the users display with advertising before inducing seizures”.

  • Hypnotic simple game

    Level 938 is unbeatable. Green always attacks, forcing you to defend with your only building, or die. Meanwhile, yellow always goes for the neutral shield building next to you. You can only delay the inevitable. You cannot win.

    Edit: i found a way... by exploiting a bug in the game.
    You can wait until yellow weakens the shield next to your start. Then abandon the green stalemate and try to steal the weakened building from yellow. You will have a couple of instances of trading off the new building before you lose the game. Direct traffic from the contested building towards yellow start, but dont release until yellow owns the building. You will be able to stop their attack this way and your last two soldiers will claim the shield with no further opposition. At this point, you may be fast enough to reclaim your origin before it falls to green. If so, further luck may turn the remaining green and yellow against eachother, sealing the win.

  • Give back the flying levels! But still fun

    Repetitive but I’m addicted. Have a frustrating moment this game zens me out. :-). Worth it even with the level repeat.
    For a week there were these flying levels available. Combination of ones that walk between towers and ones that could fly over walls or ones not behind walls. Having the mix of flying character and non flying towers just added a crazy fun mix to the level variety and challenges. Def had to think a little harder. Really PLEASE add those levels back.
    Also please move the counter bar for how much of each character color to the very top of the screen. On the iPad that bar covers a building on one of the levels making it mostly unreachable, but I still win. ;-)
    To show how addicted I am. I’m at level 3,783 in spite of the repeats. ;-)

  • Shameful lack of support and follow through.

    I purchased no ads. Still had to watch adds until I got to level 300 and something. Had the ability to use boosters. They were on timers. Would regenerate after use kool! As soon as they make them available to purchase with coins. Boosters disappear to never be seen again! Yet if I fail a level you bring up the booster purchase screen and still do not allow me to use said purchased boosters. Will someone please remove their head from their rearend and fix this. Other than the fact that there are a handful of different boards that don’t take long to begin repeat…. I love the game!!! But I’m extremely disappointed with the developers keeping up with it. I’m on level 938 I believe and because I can not use my boosters I can not proceed past this because I’m being attacked right from the onset of the level. Not nice so sad…… if these issues were not present I would without hesitation give five stars. But I can’t do that in good judgment. Two stars it is.

  • I like it but it still has bugs

    I’m on level 1920 and do enjoy this game, but it still has some glitches. For a while they were offering power ups, but then they went away. I recently failed a level and there was the option to use coins to buy power ups. I bought 10 of each for 100 coins each up. At 40 ups that was 4000 coins, but I can’t use them because there is not an option within the game. Also, the game is very repetitive, so I don’t need the ups to beat a level but they are nice to have. It’s a fun time waster but I would like te option to use my purchase. I looked for ways to contact Voodoo or Game Worthy about this, but that doesn’t seem to exist.

  • Trash game

    I’ve been playing this for like 4 months and have seen the same levels, levels that are meant to make you lose so you see an ad or use “freeze an opponent” to see an ad, also when you are winning or losing in the match it will show a ad half way through, ad after ad, and you think with all this money they get they would try and make better levels, nope levels are repeated when you hit 100 and 100 hits real quick when most of the levels that don’t make it impossible to win, are absolutely easy, but again it’s easy cause you start out the same as the enemy, some levels enemies have way more ‘points’ than you so they can take over move towers than you and some maps they spawn extra ‘points’ with extra towers and you only get one that is at ‘point’ 1. Don’t play this, even if you are bored, nothing but a cash grab so they can make other games to advertise so you go play those and they have a ton of ads too

  • Addictive, best game I ever played

    This game involves knocking down towers with your own cute “soldiers”. It involves numbers, no math. There are really no cons to this game other than the ads and the level repeats. This is an offline game so if you don’t want any ads you can turn your WiFi off or put your phone on airplane mode. The level repeats are not a big deal because, the game is so fun that I don’t recognize it at all, maybe 3 times and I’m on level 211. Besides, even if the level repeated you did that level so long ago that you forgot how you did it so it’s not a big deal. I never had a game for this long on my phone, so it is a must try. I enjoy it because it is very challenging, strategic and fun, which is perfect for me. There is a decent amount of skins but you can barely see them in the game so it really doesn’t matter, your players look like ants. Overrall the game is an 8.5/10 and I will continue playing forever I guess, you never get tired of it. Trust me you’ll catch yourself playing for an hour straight.

  • Was an enjoyable time waster until last update crippled the player.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this game until just recently. The developers updated the game and took away our ability to get “assistance” during a round. We used to be able to freeze the enemy, knock down some of the enemies levels, shield our towers from attack or bump our tower levels up. Each “gift” was on a timer so you couldn’t just use them whenever so you had to be smart about using them. Well the devs removed this and now you are only given the option to pay coin at the end of a map if, and ONLY if, you loose. Most of the time you just cancel the round and start over if you know you are going to lose. Im only at level 457 and it’s to the point where I’ll prob move on to something else. Too bad because this used to be fun.
