Overheats phone, laggy, ads
I work in software development and usually wouldn’t mind paying a few dollars for a game. I want to support developers. At first they tell you the game is $10. Then it’s $7. Then it’s $5. If the game is $5, just say it’s $5. The pricing is shady.
But my biggest concern, and why I wouldn’t pay for this and deleted it off my phone, is how my phone gets OVERHEATED playing this! I’ve never had a game make my phone so hot. I had to take my case off. The longer I played the slower the game got. I had to restart the game every 1-2 levels because it would become so laggy and freeze.
And of course the quantity and timing of ads is the worst I’ve ever seen. I understand they need to make money, but… an ad every 30 seconds and interrupting the already short levels? And for what? The visuals are basic and the game is unstable. There is no story line. What are our payments doing to continuously improve the game? It’s unfortunate because the game concept is fun, but this feels very much like a cash grab.Show lessStormy1958

Thank you for playing, we still hope that you'll return and keep sending us your feedback! Have a brilliant day!ADS ADS and more ADS!!!
I’ve now reached well over level 100 hoping that the ads would let up the more I played, but they only get worse. Every time you seem to make any progress the developers set the game up to spit out more ads that take longer and longer to watch. Today I’ve seem the same add at least 15 times in the last hour and each time I have to exit out of the add at LEAST 4 to 6 times in order to get back to the game. And by that time I’ve already forgotten what my next move was and I end up losing the level so I have to restart it and guess what? More Ads! Win a level? Ads! Lose a level? Ads! Pause the game? Ads!!!!
I will never play another game by this developer again as long as I can help it.

Ads and impossible levels
As users have pointed out before, the amount of ads during gameplay makes this game frustrating to play when connected to the internet. There are indeed close to 3-5 ads per game that you must watch. On earlier levels, this could easily wait until
In between games as the levels usually do not take more than a few minutes. However, the developers clearly think that ads are NEEDED during gameplay as they have responded to other reviews with that thought process. You can still get revenue based on ads in between games. Saying you need to put ads “for functionality and to keep developing the game” simply translates to “I want more money” because there are hundreds of thousands of other games that do not do what is done here. There are games similar to that of this game that does not require ads through the game itself. On top of this, I have found that once you get to around level 150, the game requires you to use boosts to win. Otherwise, there is no technique to win the round. I have tried and failed several times with each level and it’s just not possible. Do not waste your time with this game as it may seem fun at first, but it will eventually become a problem to play and succeed.Show lessTubaDudeGaming

Thank you for playing, keep sending us your feedback and have a wonderful day!Too many ads and app crashes
Too many ads… in the beginning they were short 10sec ads but now longer ads and can be several ads on one game… it’s like your watching more ads than play time…
Also ads cause the game to crash so you end up having to shut the app completely down and start the same game all over again…
Otherwise it could be a good little strategy gameShow lessWont accept poor review

Hi, dear friend! We really appreciate your feedback on our tower war app. As we're aware of our users' wishes, we propose a super option: to turn ads off (just update the game to the latest version)! We also work hard to impress you with new addicting stuff and great features! Just try it! Meanwhile, wishing you a wonderful day!Too many ads!
This game has so many ads that they’re actually LOSING money! If they’d had half as many ads, I’d have played every day for a month or more. Instead I played for maybe half an hour, then uninstalled the app. One forced ad after every 5-10 levels and optional ads for rewards when there is a natural pop up anyway should result in MORE ad revenue due to the increase in play time and player retention. From what I managed to do in that time, I’d say this is probably a 4 star game - IF they get the ads to a manageable level. Oh, and on top of the intrusive ads, the ALSO have banner ads on every screen! If you have banner ads anyway, then forced ads should be one every 15 minutes or more, with optional ads that ONLY play when the player chooses to watch them.Show lessqkbrlr
Great Game but what are the coins used for?!
So, I don’t normally write reviews but I feel I need to in this case for a couple of reasons. First, like others have said, the ads can be bad, but if you truly love the game, like I do, why not support the dev and pay a little money to get rid of them. This allows to dev to update the game and create more content. If you aren’t supporting them directly, the ads are how they get paid. Second, I see that there is an in-game currency, coins, but what are they used for? I see no where to use them are they simply for bragging rights?
Again, I love the game, and think it is great and well worth the few dollars to support the devs and remove the ads. Keep making great content guys!Show lessDemos22580

P.S: As for coins... Stay tuned for coming updates and you'll definitely have lots of fun and pleasure!Fun game but way too many Ads
Just like the title says the game is a lot of fun but there are way too many advertisements during the game itself. About every 1-2 minutes during actual game play you have to sit through and ad. I get that adds is what keeps a game free and you can pay to get rid of adds but this is ridiculous especially since you have to watch an ad after every level anyways. The game makes will definitely say “the ads are what keeps it free and we need them” but what it really does is make people mad enough to delete the app no matter how much fun it is, which is what I did. Hopefully they learn the right balance.Show lessHazel_guy30
Misleading
I paid to remove ads, so I won’t complain about them; others have covered that nicely. They released an update recently, (May 2022), that implies a PvP feature. Never calls it that, but the graphics indicate it and the "leaderboard" compliments the illusion. The names of players may come from actual players, but your opponents are always the game. Not actual people. You can tell because: a) there is no lag for other players, ever b) the maps repeat and opponents always behave the same way That’s very, very sketchy.Show lessMDLaxer85
Update! Used to love this game, love it again
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! For removing the heart system! I’m back to loving this game again!
The new update is horrible. The new levels are nice, but they have moved to a 3 heart/life system. After having purchased this game a few months back to get rid of ads, I now have only 3 chances to pass a certain level before I’m forced to watch an ad to “replenish” my chances/lives. This is horrible way to treat paying customersShow lessCNVega
Confused!
A couple of nights ago the app update looked exciting. I had player vs player, leaderboards, missions! And now it’s gone back to just levels and levels again, I’m collecting coins and I don’t know what to use them on!!??
I’m getting a bored. I brought the no ads purchase as I thought the mid game interruptions were annoying and it really is a great game, and got better for one night!!
I must admit the lives were a bit tight at 3, should be 5 lives that regenerate every 30 mins like other games. I liked the lives, as it gives you a break, this game is addicting and 2 hours can flash by if your not careful!Show lessNSnow189
