### 5/5 — Wiki

Where’s the wiki? I need it. When will you respond?

### 1/5 — Fun but can’t get heroes

*2024-10-03*

I’ve been enjoying this game for a few days, no ads is really awesome.  But after beating the 12 rounds, I thought it would let you unlock a hero or something.. nope.  The rest of the heroes seem locked behind a paywall of $3 EACH.  So to get to hard mode you need 7 hero’s unlocked… They don’t explain how to get more hero’s so I’m assuming you must pay real money for them.. I hope I’m just blind because a decision like that will kill the game before it takes off.  A lot of potential here, hopefully the devs change it so you can earn them, otherwise, I can’t recommend this game.  I will be checking back often to see what direction this game decides to go.
