### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2019-12-10*

This game is so fun! Definitely worth downloading! I wish I could learn how to buy new things. It’s not super good with showing you how to unlock something. I want to change my guns or tanks with all the money I’ve gotten, but after a lot of playing I still can’t figure it out. It’s not quite popular enough to be able to find tutorials on YouTube. This game will definitely be the best if I can learn how to unlock being able to buy new things! It also does do a weird glitch every once in a while like you can’t move your target, but it is easily solved by closing the app and opening it again. It’s just frustrating when your wave 10 on survival x). Creator, is the not being able to unlock being able to buy stuff just me or is it the app?

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2020-11-25*

This is kind of a fun game that lets you have a little battle table wherever you are but the graphics are bad and the battle table is to small witch makes it hard to control.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear you don’t like the graphics hedgehog172! You can scale the map up to 500% by using the pinch gesture when setting up the space, or if you are playing Survival mode you can drag from the map edge to make a much larger map.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2020-08-20*

Every time I tried to play it kicked me out and it was a waste of money I’m on a I phone xs

**Developer response:** Hey Jake,
Sorry to hear the game isn’t working for you, what version of iOS and device are you trying to play on?

Let’s get it up and running for you!

All the best, 
Joe

Edit: Okay, can you try deleting and reinstalling the game fresh - and try enabling airplane mode before you first open the app incase it’s an issue downloading the latest levels? 

If that doesn’t work - email info@artanks.co.uk and I’ll do my best to get you fixed up!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t even open

*2019-12-18*

Just spent $1.99
Opened the app, but just got a blank screen.
Feeling scammed

**Developer response:** Hey Dinodan100 - sorry it’s not working, let’s get you up and running!

Please can you uninstall the app and reinstall it and check if that resolves it. If that didn’t work, can you try to reinstall it again but turn your internet off before opening it for the first time.

If that didn’t work, can you let me know what iPhone you are using and what your current version of iOS is?

Thanks,
Joe

UPDATE: Have you had chance to uninstall and reinstall yet? All the best!

### 1/5 — It won’t work! 😥

*2019-12-17*

The app goes to the loading screen and then crashes

**Developer response:** Hey cvs cookie - sorry to hear it’s not working, let’s get it fixed!

First off, can you uninstall the app and reinstall it and check if that works. If that didn’t work, can you try to reinstall it again but turn your internet off before opening it for the first time.

If that didn’t work, can you let me know what iPhone you are using and what your current version of iOS is?

Thanks,
Joe

UPDATE: Have you had chance to try the steps above to fix it? I really want to help you be able to play 😊

### 1/5 — Eh....

*2019-10-19*

Bought. Crash on startup. :(

**Developer response:** Hey Yeonheeluv,

Sorry to hear it’s crashing out on you, that shouldn’t be happening! If you let me know the device and iOS version you’re on I can look in to this for you. First up, I’d suggest deleting the app and downloading it again to double check it isn’t a problem with the installation process.
Let’s get this fixed! ☺️ - Joe

UPDATE: Did you try the above to see if that fixed it? It’d be great to know if you managed to get it working ☺️

### 1/5 — App won’t launch :(

*2019-08-08*

App crashes at the title screen. All my stuff is up to date not sure why i’m having this issue. Support link leads to your website and the “get in touch” button doesn’t work. Please fix it or give a refund.

**Developer response:** Hey Aquabiscuit 👋 

Just wondering if you have been able to download 1.2.1 or 1.3.0 to verify the crash bug is fixed for you? If you are still experiencing the issue I’m happy to continue this over email at support@ARtanks.co.uk - sorry you’ve had this bug!

Thanks,
Joe

### 1/5 — Never played... crashes and closes the second I open it

*2019-08-08*

Never played... crashes and closes the second I open it... that’s all, and the app support link doesn’t take you anywhere to help.

**Developer response:** Really sorry for the crashes Jason! A bug that caused the game to crash for new players made its way in to 1.2.0 - The version with the fix has been approved and should be available to download in the next hour or so! Edit: Just checking back to see if you've downloaded 1.2.1 yet to see if the issue is fixed for you? Thanks - Joe :)

### 4/5 — Add online mode!

*2020-06-28*

The game is great but it be even better if there was a mode where you can battle others online

### 4/5 — Great game

*2020-02-25*

Really good game play, my only complaint is that, in the multiplayer, the host always deals twice as much damage as the other player. But I’m sure the developers will fix it.

### 4/5 — Moment of error

*2019-12-20*

Everything worked good, controls were not to my liking, had pent up anger took it out on this game before this edit.

**Developer response:** Hey bristobal,

I’m sorry to hear that, what went wrong - did the game crash or did you just not like the game?

If the game is crashing on the first load up, can you try the following:

Uninstall the app and reinstall it and check if that allows it to open. If that didn’t work, can you try to reinstall it again but turn your internet off before opening it for the first time.

If none of the above has worked, can you let me know what iPhone you are using and what your current version of iOS is?

Thanks,
Joe

### 5/5 — An excellent AR game

*2021-07-31*

It’s tanks in AR, it’s really cool. Pretty simple and I would love to see a warship version. Maybe Ship Battle AR? Battleships etc. anyway this game is awesome. 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Doesn’t work on my 6S but awesome on my 8

*2020-06-06*

It doesn’t seem to work on my older phones, but once I got the 8 it worked perfectly:). I can’t wait for more amazing content!

**Developer response:** Hey!

That’s no good, let’s get this working for you! 

AR requires camera permissions so it can use the camera for scanning and tracking, so make sure these are enabled the app settings (if the screen is black, this is the issue). 
AR also needs a surface which has some detail/texture to scan so it can create anchor points for the game to stick to, could you try scanning a flat wooden surface of concrete if you haven’t already and let me know if that fixes the problem?

If that still isn’t working, may I ask what device are you using and what version of iOS are you on? 

All the best,
Joe

### 5/5 — Full Five

*2020-05-16*

This game is amazing. It combines classic game types with AR abilities. It adds a whole new level of game play when you can look under bridges and view the entire playing field. I give it a full five stars. I have one suggestion though. It would be great to see A way to play with friends without LAN. I would love to be able to play with my friends without leaving our houses. Your game uses Game Center, so it would be simple to add long-range multiplayer. Along with that, an invite button. Of course, this is just a suggestion, and the game is great already. Thanks for hours of fun.
EDIT: there’s some knockoff of this called AR tank wars. Just wanted to let you know.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2020-03-07*

I love this game it’s so fun to play with friends and even play by yourself is fun 😬 love it

### 5/5 — I love this game!

*2019-12-19*

This is probably my favorite mobile game I’ve ever played. It’s super fun to play on your own, and I also had a great time playing with a friend! I know this is a given, but having no ads is soooo great! It makes the game feel a lot more fleshed out. 6/5

### 5/5 — Really fun and amazing game!

*2019-12-17*

I really like this game but their are a few things that could be improved. For one the tutorial needs to encompass not just how to play but how to upgrade and change your tank, and anything else about the game.
Second I like the gameplay but it would be helpful if you could rotate the screen in the middle of the battle with like a two finger swipe because it is difficult to get up and walk around everywhere to either find your enemy or see if there are passages that were blocked from your view.
But other then that I really like this game.

### 5/5 — Love the look and game play

*2019-08-13*

Loved the AR tank aesthetic: clean, fun to play and addicting. A great game!

### 5/5 — Great ar experience!!!

*2019-08-09*

Really great game! Definitely the best ar experience ive had yet. Worth the 2.99, keep it up!!

### 5/5 — So fun!

*2019-08-09*

Having a lot of fun playing this! This is by far the best AR experience I’ve had so far 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
