### 1/5 — Scam

*2023-05-12*

It says there’s a virus, but I have no virus

### 1/5 — Threat Detected- do not install

*2023-03-07, version 1.0.018*

I’ve just installed and upon startup, operating system this a threat detected message and then closes the app. Must be some shenanigans going on with this. DO NOT TRUST THIS APP!!

### 1/5 — Keeps saying

*2023-03-07, version 1.0.018*

Terminating app it thinks it’s a virus fix your game and keeps crashing

### 1/5 — не работает от слова совсем

*2023-02-17, version 1.0.018*

Уже полгода игра банально не запускается из-за какой-то ошибки, на нескольких устройствах - одно и тоже

### 1/5 — Не Качайте игру

*2023-01-25, version 1.0.018*

Игра не запускается iPhone 13

### 2/5 — Sad to see

*2022-06-22, version 1.0.018*

Such a fun game, but so many bugs, and with no updates in the last 5 months I’m assuming the game isn’t going to improve sadly. Such a shame

### 3/5 — Attacking hideouts doesn’t work

*2022-05-23, version 1.0.018*

Kinda nice game, but attacking hideouts tutorial got me into fight and got stuck. No items from backpack, no ability to end turn, just waiting for timeout. 
When I was trying to attack something outside of the tutorial it’s saying that it found something, but not getting me anything. :/

### 2/5 — Too buggy

*2022-05-12, version 1.0.018*

It has the potential to be a fun game, but if you get irritated by freezes and glitches that happen fairly often, then I’d avoid this game and invest your time elsewhere.

### 4/5 — Any updates?

*2022-04-27, version 1.0.018*

Too easy on hard mode. 
Any updates? New chapters? New stages? 
Good game. It requires just few updates.

### 3/5 — Есть потенциал, но ещё очень сыро

*2022-04-16, version 1.0.018*

Игра норм, но проходится за 2 недели без доната. 
Постоянные вылеты и лаги. 
Игроков мало. С Лигой вообще смех какой-то, что за лига, в которую никто не играет? 
Плохой баланс аксессуаров и монстров. Все «топовые» игроки +\- пользуются одними скилами, потому что они дают наибольший профит. По сути твоя задача, чтоб у тебя было как можно больше энергии и как можно больше вариантов карт. 

Короче работы с этой игрой ещё очень очень много, разработчикам удачи! Добавляйте новые главы, делайте разные уровни сложности на главы, при такой «сырой» игре не надо делать лиги, которые идут месяц (вы что не понимаете, что игра надоедает за 2 недели т.к упираешься в предел). Лига максимум неделя. (Потому уже, когда игроков насобираете, можно будет увеличить время).

### 4/5 — Solid Game

*2022-04-09, version 1.0.018*

Very fun game and no ads

### 4/5 — Интересная игра

*2022-04-02, version 1.0.018*

Игра и в правду необычная - куча различных комбинаций предметов
Но очень не хватает нового контента: 4 главы и два уровня сложности всего лишь 
Нейтральных предметов тоже перестаёт хватать 
Буквально за две недели игра была пройдена абсолютно без доната

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-04-15, version 1.0.018*

Any time I try to open it says there’s a threat and the app has to close - and it does. The game in unplayable and there’s no support or updates anymore. So I paid for nothing🙃

### 1/5 — Users beware! Apple detected some type of hack

*2024-03-28, version 1.0.018*

Tried opening the game and it was immediately blocked & closed by IOS stating it was attempting to hack my device. User beware!!

### 1/5 — very smooth game

*2024-02-01, version 1.0.018*

PLEASE FIX this problem: when I fight the temple boss, the games always STUCK there and I can not do anything except just close the game and all my effort before we’re gone Which WASTED me a lot of time! This problem happened more and more often 3 out of 5 times! I even paid for this game PLEASE fix this as soon as possible!

### 1/5 — Error when opening app

*2024-01-25, version 1.0.018*

LIAPP
[2001]threat has been detected. app will be terminated.
UCODE : E0D98AAB+43AC

### 1/5 — Getting error at startup

*2024-01-07, version 1.0.018*

Error LIAPP 2001

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2023-11-03, version 1.0.018*

Got the itch to play backpack hero but dont have a pc and i thought might aswell play this. And so when i load in the game it gives an error message and closes the game. Literally makes the game unplayable. Either it can be updated or anything or just taken off the app store entirely if you can’t even launch the game

### 1/5 — もはや星0

*2023-08-22*

ほかのひともいっていますが
ゲームを起動した瞬間から謎の表示が出てきてokを押すと落とされます。放置していてもOKを押さないといけないようになってるから一生変なおじさんが立ってるタイトルしか見れないゲームです。ゲーム内容は面白そうなのに勿体無いです。修繕お願いします

### 1/5 — PAY2WIN

*2023-08-10*

Ist immer das gleiche, wirklich immer. Nichts ist kostenlos oder Free, so was gibt es nicht. In diesem Spiel (und jedes andere) „der Anfang ist sehr leicht, aber dann auf einmal kommst du nicht mehr weiter“. Ganz einfach gesagt „ohne echtes Geld“ ist es nicht möglich weiter zu kommen. Ist Deinstalliert.

### 1/5 — i can't play the game

*2023-07-14, version 1.0.018*

everytime i open the game it says

                                 LIAPP 

[2001]threat has been detected. app will be terminated

when this is fixed i will up my rating until then no

### 1/5 — Game is dead

*2023-05-24, version 1.0.018*

No updates over a year to fix bugs.

*2023-06-06, version 1.0.018*

Apparently my phone thinks this game is a hack and terminates the game every time I try to start it 😂😂 5 stars anyways cuz I don’t wanna ruin the game devs

### 5/5 — 왜 마음대로

*2023-03-17*

왜 마음대로 앱 종료를 해요?
재미있게 즐기고 과금도 하면서 기다리는 유저인데
왜 죠..? 하ㅠ

Keine Werbung und viel Spielspaß

### 5/5 — Good

*2022-07-01, version 1.0.018*

Yes yes good game. My pet alligator tinglebingle ate my arm.

### 5/5 — Constructive criticism

*2022-05-03, version 1.0.018*

I love the game it’s perfect I’m middle aged and I feel like this game is just phenomenal but I would like you to adjust it A little more to further accommodate the older investors because I’d definitely put money into an expansion pack that grants the game players some type of further movement into pvp and better equipment/ graphics but I’d still like the game to be balanced enough to where people who didn’t pay for stuff could still versus people who did and win thank you for the hard work you put into the game a loving fan.

### 5/5 — Добавьте главы

*2022-04-10, version 1.0.018*

Супер игра мне нравится только зделайте пожалуйста больше глав не 4 а например 7 спасибо заранеее если добавите главы.

### 5/5 — Ошибка

### 5/5 — Bugs need worked out

*2022-02-07, version 1.0.018*
