Just remember you have to fire in FRONT of the airplanes and let them fly into your fire. Nice hand eye coordination game😎👍🏼 ### 3/5 — Developers need to pay attention. *2023-02-06, version 1.0.2* The gameplay is just about ok, the one thing nagging me is the sounds the aircraft make. One of the aircraft used is the Fairchild Republic A10 Thunderbolt II aka the Warthog. I’m pretty sure that they have jet engines and not the propeller engined sound file linked to it. Do us a favour and change it in the next update 🙏🏼 ### 3/5 — More Content *2023-02-04, version 1.0.2* All around the game is actually very fun, that is until you get all if the turrets and there are no new ones to try. Also the levels never vary in style, and they never get more difficult. Meaning that this game is good for 5-10 minutes then becomes insanely boring. This game could be a 5 star game if it was packed full of new planes, new turrets, new maps, and just better gameplay. ### 5/5 — Fun *2023-02-03, version 1.0.2* It’s fun but you can add a few more turrets and also add skin’s ### 5/5 — حيدة جدا *2023-02-03, version 1.0.2* جيدة جدا ### 5/5 — Amazing just needs more content *2023-02-01, version 1.0.2* Yes ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Guns cease *2024-02-28, version 1.1.2* After a while the guns no longer fire ### 1/5 — Guns on Strike! *2023-07-19, version 1.1.0* After a few levels the guns go on strike and refuse to fire!! ### 1/5 — Review *2023-03-20, version 1.0.2* If you like watching adds then this game is for you . Pretty basic game good for kids . But lots and lots of adds. ### 1/5 — Fun for a while but then you but out *2023-02-20, version 1.0.2* This game is fun at first, but then you have 30-60 second adds to a 25 second match and you also have far too few planes and only a few AA turrets. Can see why this game is for pre-teens. ### 1/5 — Poorly developed *2023-02-15, version 1.0.2* This has potential, but isn’t developed well. Poor aim. It quits advancing early on. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time! *2023-02-14, version 1.0.2* Game is fun enough to play, however after the first three levels, you are stuck watching ads after each round you complete😡 A round may take 20 seconds to complete, however ads are 30-45 seconds long. I’d pay to be rid of the ads, but that isn’t even an option. You can’t even get a new gun without watching ads!😡😡😡😡😡 Save the aggravation and avoid at all cost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😡😡😡 ### 1/5 — To many advertisers *2023-02-11, version 1.0.2* Fun game but way to many advertisements that are from 30 seconds to 1 minute. Some advertisements require you to play the game being advertised for them to go away. It ruins the game experience completely. ### 1/5 — 2 many ads *2023-02-07* Way 2. Many ads ### 2/5 — Same game *2023-02-14, version 1.0.2* Same perspective each time. Little variety. ### 3/5 — Not bad *2023-05-07, version 1.0.3* It’s a pretty decent game but I got the turrets to max level too easily and the enemy planes are too easily defeated, I would enjoy the game more if there was more turrets and maybe different enemy aircraft’s or tanks possibly in a new update, I know it would take a while to make but it would make the game more enjoyable. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hardest hits *2025-06-14, version 1.1.2* Love this Defense system it’s awesome hitting hardest hits ### 5/5 — Bait and switch UPDATE *2023-07-14, version 1.1.0* Pay 9.99 for this app to eliminate ads and got a non-functioning version after update.I want a refund. UPDATE After uninstalling & twice, rebooting my phone & re-loading the app. It works fine! This is the game I was expecting. Great fun! ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-05-19, version 1.0.3* Great game while waiting for plane or in flight ### 5/5 — Aaron Review *2023-04-28, version 1.0.3* it’s not that hard for me but it’s just a little bit of work and I’m trying my hardest not too much to get through ### 5/5 — Air Defense *2023-04-11, version 1.0.3* Very exhilarating at first look and cleverly designed that shots are not fired until your within the strike zone. However the constant interruptions with new competing apps to install. Is increasing the level of aversion to play. ### 5/5 — Needs update *2023-04-05, version 1.0.2* Its very fun and good but we need more planes and turrets and maybe bosses ### 5/5 — Changing Guns *2023-03-29, version 1.0.2* I’ve played this for over a month and have yet been able to change the gun from the 2 barrel no matter how much money I have in the account. I’ve reached level 256 and still have the same gun even after selecting and having it light up as the one to be used. I paid the no ad fee also. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. ### 5/5 — Nice *2023-02-24, version 1.0.2* Awesome ### 5/5 — Great action! *2023-02-05, version 1.0.2* Very good graphics, sound effects are realistic! ### 5/5 — survival mode *2023-02-04, version 1.0.2* i'm a bedridden person with slow reaction time and below average dexterity but 45 minutes after downloading this app i have all available upgrades and now i have an interactive slideshow. please put an endless mode in the game for replayabilty. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
