### 1/5 — Broken

*2025-04-06*

The weapons are stupidly weak, The enemies are stupidly strong for absolutely no reason. You get beaten 9 out of 10 times. Any update to this game will just make it worse to the point that no-one will play it and no-one will pay money. This game is unbalanced to the point of it being boring.

### 1/5 — No updates anymore

*2025-03-29*

Was fun in the beginning but since December no new updates anymore. Sadly deleted the app

### 1/5 — Super long ads

*2025-01-06*

This game is about as good as any other backpack game, but 90 second adds make it worthless. What makes them think I’m more likely to download their crappy app if they waste my time on repetitive ads? Not worth it.

### 2/5 — Beaucoup trop de pubs

*2024-12-27, version 6.0*

Le jeu en lui-même est vraiment super cool, mais par pitié les publicités c’est plus possible. 1min30 voire 2min de pubs à chaque fois pour gagner 2-3 malheureuses cases c’est vraiment abusé. 
Et puis 20€ pour un pack sans pubs ? Sérieusement ? Ça gâche vraiment tout le plaisir

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2024-12-16*

The game is ok but when I passed the second stage I tried to play the third stage and it wouldn’t let me it would say insufficient items equipped even though I have every item that I unlocked equipped I tried uninstalling it reinstalling it didn’t work tried un equipping didn’t work tried upgrading still didn’t work even when I tried to play stage one or two it said the same thing and even if i tried to buy more equipment you have to beat stage three to access the shop

### 1/5 — สนุกนะแต่โฆษณาเยอะเกินไป

*2024-12-08, version 6.0*

เสียเวลาดูโฆษณามากๆ 1นาทีดูโฆษณา1นาที สนุกแต่เสียเวลา ภาพไม่ได้สวยมาก

### 1/5 — Adds are a must

*2024-11-15*

Either you pay to win or you have to watch the adds there’s no way around it

### 3/5 — โฆษณานาย

*2024-11-14, version 6.0*

สนุกนะแต่หลังๆโฆษณานานเกิน

### 1/5 — Ads time getting longer and longer….

*2024-11-12, version 6.0*

Ads time getting longer and longer….

### 3/5 — 玩平板沒辦法換獎勵但是手機可以

*2024-11-07, version 6.0*

活動期間看廣告拿獎勵根本沒辦法拿，看完廣告什麼都沒有，從玩的時候就這樣了，只有平板有這個問題，身邊的人用手機玩都沒問題。例如大富翁遊戲的魔法骰子，我一整期拿不了一個魔法骰子
