Unplayable

Could only open once now it crashes everytime I try to open it.

Its good?

Its pretty good but… not only is it super repetitive when you get a boss stage every 3-5 stages but it also gets stupidly difficult without meta units.

It find it very funny how over 100k people searched a tutorial to complete a tutorial stage
