### 4/5 — Awesome game but sad

*2026-08-03, version 1.5.7*

Hi, I was wondering if you
Guys could make more maps for the pass and play, when you play them often it gets repetitive and boring, the games really fun and please come out with more. Thank you

### 5/5 — Great WW2 Strategy Game

*2026-07-27, version 1.5.7*

Amazing strategy game with fun missions and smooth gameplay. The graphics are good, and every battle feels exciting. Definitely worth playing!

### 5/5 — 期待更多系列

*2026-05-09, version 1.5.7*

1940、1937都感覺是可以做的～但1945算了吧，德軍表示不公平

### 3/5 — Meh

*2026-03-08, version 1.5.7*

Very very good game. Just a bit to punishing. Also, there are way to many adds and it bugs you allot you remove them, which of course cost real life money.

### 5/5 — Please consider..

*2026-02-10, version 1.5.7*

I absolutely love this game. I’ve been playing it for a week or two and it’s the been the only thing I’ve played. Though if you end up reading this simple request, can you please update the pass and play to where I can change how much gold/resources to a higher value. For example can you make it to where I can have infinite? It would make the pass and play experience way more interesting. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Pass and play glitches.

*2025-12-29, version 1.5.7*

Some times when playing the pass and play an American sniper will appear in the bottom left corner. I won’t be able to move it or get rid of this unit making the game unable to be end without manually starting a new round with the same map. Another glitch is that sometimes I will end my turn and hand the phone over to my brother or sister, but when they try to start their turn the game will just close itself. This will happen repeatedly over and over till the round is restarted. Thank goodness this is rare though. But overall I do love this game, but I do hope you add more pass and play levels. I really do like being able to play with my siblings on this game. However the same maps do get old after a while.

### 5/5 — 非常适合

*2025-05-06, version 1.5.7*

不错，非常喜欢非常适合

### 4/5 — Nouvelle mission

*2025-02-20*

Oui bonjour c’était pour demander une mission avec les chasseurs me 262 et autres armes miracles, mais sinon c’est vraiment cool super sympa la série de jeux sur la seconde guerres mondiales bravo.

### 5/5 — Please add new maps!

*2025-01-30, version 1.5.7*

The game is awesome and all the other ones are too, just please add more campaigns to all of them! They are getting too easy!

### 5/5 — Game still alive ❤️

*2024-12-02, version 1.5.7*
