### 1/5 — Протр

*2024-10-01*

Мдаааа.    

Жёские трупы

### 2/5 — Literally looks like off brand Dont Starve and Hotline Miami

*2024-05-10*

The first spider you see looks like the spider from don’t starve. And there Miami signs on the walls and you rob from banks.

### 5/5 — Playing this with my backbone controller!

*2023-08-25*

I'm really enjoying this game! There is a couple issues:
I can't access the premium store

The 3 chest lags out the game and I have to restart to make it work again

I can't buy the ad free option

Im really glad that there is controller support too! Hopefully this game gets updated

### 1/5 — Вообще не загрузилась

*2023-01-08*

iPhone 13- вообще не загрузилась.
Скачала, открыла, прождала минут 10, но игра так и не запустилась( удалила

### 3/5 — I like it but needs updates

*2022-07-27*

I liked that it’s a very easy game but a FAKE multiplayer game, at least the designs and the work, it’s great, but sometimes needs update at the times, so yeah, please update this game and bring it back to life.

### 3/5 — Update and bug fixes?

*2022-05-26*

The game is pretty glitchy, I’m not sure if it’s my phone or if it’s actually the game but when I buy crates the screen freezes and it’s like a CD skipping keeps freezing then works for a sec then freezes again and so on. Will there be an update to fix these issues?

### 1/5 — Ads

*2022-05-16*

The Ads are on the bottom of the screen and make it hard to play

### 5/5 — Super fun needs new work

*2022-05-02*

The game is very fun i think they need new maps and larger chest then 3
Its 3 for 600 coins and my last game i made 77million coins, i would love to see new characters and unlockable skins for guns and new maps and game modes maybe a battle Royale with ranks too

Other then that its fun kinda repetitive tho

### 1/5 — Restored purchases reset everything

*2022-04-27*

Accidentally hit “restore purchase” while trying to buy chest and it literally reset everything. I lost my skins, my guns, the real life money and put into the game all gone.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-01-08*

Well made and fun. Plenty of upgrades and replay value. Just to clarify though its a single player game, not online. Deserves more attention though. The bots are not silly and can get you if you’re not careful.
