Great game, although when you try to play online, it crashes.

### 4/5 — 面白い

*2022-06-04, version 1.7*

英語で、文を読む必要がありますが、ごく短い文で、中学校レベルの難易度なのでほぼ障壁になりません。
ゲーム内容も面白いです。
でもステージ数のボリュームは若干少ないかな。

I really enjoyed that retro game! Tolles Retrogame. Macht sehr viel Spaß!

Tolles Spiel, gerade die NOTWENDIGKEIT die eigene Aufstellung minimal zu verändern um zu gewinnen macht hier neben der Vielfalt der Truppen den Spaß aus!

Great game, esp. the NEED to adjust even minimally your troop layout to finally win has a huge impact on how much fun this game is!

Good game but u need to pay too early, b4 anything about game :/ ytf the game is free ?

### 2/5 — MultiPlayer on Older (IPhone4) Devices

*2017-03-17, version 1.6*

The actual gameplay deserves 5 stars, but multiplayer mode was very disappointing. 
I was hoping to play the game with a friend, but the online multiplayer mode crashed on her IPhone4 device. I would be very happy if this issue was resolved. 
Please don't give up on the game!!
Don't change it to be more like newer RPG games!! People like it just the way it is!!
Please continue to update the game regularly and please fix multiplayer mode on older devices!!

### 2/5 — Mmm

*2016-01-07, version 1.6*

Exigeix fer ressenya per seguir el joc, tot i haver-lo adquirit…

### 2/5 — Naja

*2015-03-12, version 1.2*

Also an für sich ist es ganz witzig und macht laune , aber nach dem ersten kapitel muss man schon auf eine externe seite wo man denen subscriben soll um weiter spielen zu können ok gemacht nächstes kapitel durch gespielt und ab dann muss man zahlen 

Fazit nicht zu empfehlen !

### 2/5 — 普通のディフェンスゲーム

*2015-02-22, version 1.1*

キャラ強化等のやり込み要素皆無
ステージ2以降（レベル21〜180）課金しないと出来ない
800円もかけて全部やるアホはいねえよ

### 5/5 — Simplemente Fascinante

*2023-08-12, version 1.7*

Este juego es una buena muestra de que no hacen falta grandes recursos ni parafernalia para hacer un juego de 10. Sólo TALENTO . Si eres fan del Command and Conquer clásico… te fascinará.

### 5/5 — Entretenido

Sencillo y fácil de jugar, tiene muchos niveles, de los mejores

### 5/5 — Yep!

*2020-07-23, version 1.7*

Many games claim the “addictive” title but this one is!!!
Simplicity at its best!!!

Update after finishing the game:
I wish developers that truly find that “something” were supported more and didn’t vanish.
I think Apple should find a way to support them more.
I hope this dev sees this review and decides to make something new for new screen sizes with a few new characters and places.
I had to struggle to put this game down even when I had something to do ! That’s rare.
