### 4/5 — Underrated

*2018-01-24, version 1.7*

Great game, a must try!

### 4/5 — Today

*2016-09-08, version 1.7*

Simple but fun. Love the Slaughter!

### 4/5 — ...

*2013-06-28, version 1.5*

I love this game. But when I try to play the game the screen is the black and I can't see anything please fix it

### 4/5 — needs 2 characters to be unlockable

*2013-06-19, version 1.5*

the overall game is great but it has at least 2 things they should
change within the game. 1. make 2 characters obtainable by gene capsules 
purchase, 2 the lettering on the inventory and store to buy weapons needs to be a 
little bit more bigger and not tiny letters that are barely visible.

### 4/5 — Has Potential

*2013-05-27, version 1.5*

Gameplay is repetitive though its could.

### 4/5 — A good time filler.

*2013-05-20, version 1.5*

The game is pretty fun, with a few instances of lag showing up, but never so bad that it makes the game less fun. It may seem that items are out of your reach, but the game does a good job giving you enough credits and opportunities to get those items. I give it 4 stars for its run-and-gun gameplay. Would've been nice if there was a story to go along with the heroine though, seems like such a wasted possibility.

### 3/5 — Great game!!!

*2013-05-18, version 1.5*

Update: As someone else has already mentioned, there is an inevitable paywall that you will run into at a certain point. As such, i am lowering my review score to 3 stars from my original 5 stars. 

I have really enjoyed the game up to this point. It is a pity that everyone has to put IAP's in all their games now. I'd rather pay 5 bucks one time for a great game like this and then never have to worry about in-app purchases. I feel that IAP's are a major slap in the face to hardcore gamers everywhere. If a developer wants to put them in the game for someone who is too lazy to work through the game to get great loot and they'd rather cheat and buy it with IAP's, than that is fine. But when the developers put this crap in every game regardless, and you can't get through the game without spending more of your hard earned money, it is an insult to those of us that are true gamers. 

This is a great ARPG. I really like it. The game can be played without spending money on IAP's but be prepared to die a lot at times.

### 4/5 — Very good game, minor improvements needed

*2013-05-17, version 1.5*

This is one of the best ARPGS on ios a few small additions would make it perfect though:

Add Game Center achievements
More levels
Deeper weapon and suit customization

### 3/5 — WARNING FOR IPHONE 4

*2013-05-11, version 1.5*

I have an iPhone 4 and it doesn't work. When I start the game it just shows a black screen

### 4/5 — A fun Futuristic dungeon slayer

*2013-04-28, version 1.5*

I've been having a lot fun playing this game. It's put together really well with a lots of detail and variety put into designing the enemies, weapons, armor, and environment. The action is pretty straight forward and fun. I think it's cool that I am rewarded with weapons, credits, and or supply's every so often just for playing. *Multiplayer co op would be a cool feature. Being able to mod weapons, have extended magazines, special ammo, and perks would be more fun to pick up through a level than the countless amount of armor and crap guns I do not need.  4 Stars

### 3/5 — Three stars, for now.

*2013-04-27, version 1.5*

The latest update did address the lag issue, but that's all it seemed to do.  In place of it, crashes have become more frequent...

Another issue, as has been stated before, is the prices of things.  Upgrading stats in the skill tree take thousands of credits.  The next-level upgrade (from 5,000) jumps up to 10,000.   Yet, you're only getting maybe 2,000 credits per round, if that.  Also, this is excluding costs for items and weapons from the shop to help you even get through the levels first.     It just seems a bit unreasonable to charge 5,000 credits for 3% Hit rating.  Maybe that's just me.

### 3/5 — Alien zone

*2013-04-26, version 1.5*

It's a great game, but every time I try to play the game, it send me back to the iPod home screen. Can you please fix it.

### 4/5 — Alien Zone

*2013-04-16, version 1.4*

Overall very Fun. 

Some crates should be accessible with out the use of a key, the bronze key price should stay the same not keep going up by 100, and enemies should drop more credits than they do now.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2016-08-03, version 1.7*

Loved the game on my ITouch 5 but... Now that I've upgraded to an iPhone 6s+ I can't even play because the display takes up only the bottom left hand corner of the screen while the buttons are hidden off in the black edges.

### 1/5 — Image issue

*2013-07-18, version 1.5*

I know it has good sound effects and it must be a good game but…I can't see the image. I can see fine; the screen is just plain blank whenever I open the game. I'm sorry for being mean but it is the truth.

### 1/5 — Game keeps crashing

*2013-05-18, version 1.5*

I bought this game because it looks actually good. The screen loads..but when i press play it crashes. Can someone please fix this or refund my account ???

### 1/5 — Black screen

*2013-04-29, version 1.5*

Wish I could review the game but can't even play it. Start game up nothing but black screen can hear the game music and if a press randomly on screen can hear a button sound and a avatar purchase option pops up but that's it! ???? Don't see any other reviews with anyone having this issue though?! And app support page is not in English so useless

### 1/5 — Update Deleted My Save and Purchases...

*2013-04-20, version 1.4*

Edit 2: Update deleted my old save...  And all the gene capsules I bought.  "Restoring" does nothing.  Totally bummed, I really liked this game.

I recommend playing this.  Yes, it is in its early stages, but very promising.  The lighting is very good, but like other reviewers said, it can get choppy.  Reminiscent of older shooters, which is awesome, especially given the rpg element.  Gameplay is a bit rinse and repeat, but there are hours of gameplay here.  Try it!!!

Edit: This update is great.  New weapons are cool.  Like other reviews said, if this had multiplayer support and other classes, it would be one of the best iOS games ever.  I would also like to see some non-bullet firing weapons like laser guns, flamethrowers, plasma rifles, and rocket launchers.  Also, melee weapons would be sweet!

### 1/5 — In-App purchases ruin it

*2013-02-03, version 1.03*

I thought it was a good game, but you'll never get the best gear or maximum abilities without spending money on the in-app purchases.  That ruined the experience for me.  I wouldn't recommend this game unless you don't mind spending addional money or having crippled gameplay.

### 1/5 — Crash on iPod Touch

*2013-01-28, version 1.02*

I'd like to play as I bought it and my device is compatible but when I click the first mission it gives me a load screen then crashes. Please fix because the game looks awesome.

### 2/5 — Pay 2 Win

*2013-04-18, version 1.4*

Save your gene capsules. At lvl 20 you can't upgrade the passive tree with in game cash, you can only use gene capsules.   This game is a lot of fun and I have put about 6 hours of gameplay in. I would rate this game a 4/5 if it wasn't for the terrible passive skill progression. I am level 22 and I have found less than 30 gene capsules from gameplay.  Please give us side quests that grant gene capsules or allow us to purchase them with in game money earned through gameplay.  I would make in app purchase but the store gives horrendous value for USD.

### 2/5 — Said it was free

*2012-12-28, version 1.0*

I thought this game was free cuz it said free and now I'm short 2.99 that I would have like to use on other things thxs. Also the lag is pretty bad, makes u run into the enemies that spontaneously likes to surprise you. After I die it kicks me off the app...........

### 3/5 — Stuck at a black screen

*2013-06-15, version 1.5*

I hear sound but don't se anything at the beginning

### 5/5 — Good game

*2014-01-22, version 1.7*

Good game, I love it.

### 5/5 — Pretty good

*2013-05-20, version 1.5*

Its a grinder u gotta play and play and play to get guns and power ups unless u wanna spend real money but other than that its pretty good

### 5/5 — Great graphics

*2013-04-27, version 1.5*

Amazing little tps for an iPhone it's one of my fav games!! Only dislike is the fact that as u lvl up the great weapons become further and further out of ur price range.

### 5/5 — Thoroughly enjoying!

*2013-04-26, version 1.4*

Glad I came across this game.  A good, visceral thrill when I play.  Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Good Shoot-em up

*2013-04-21, version 1.4*

More than just a third person shooter, it has rudiments of role playing (with the skill system) and there are numerous ways to spend your loot. Very fun game.

### 5/5 — keep updating This Awesome Game

*2013-04-16, version 1.4*

This is an awesome game, should be featured! great job with the latest update! I hope new stuffs will come in

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2013-04-15, version 1.4*

Fun micro 3rd person shooter. Regularly updated makes it all the better.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2013-03-10, version 1.03*

Not sure what the complaints are about. IAP is totally optional. I'm on Hardcore and haven't spent any real money.
The menu system needs revamped. 
This game could be the platform to something great... ie level map randomization.
