### 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

### 3/5 — โฆษณานาย

*2024-11-14, version 6.0*

สนุกนะแต่หลังๆโฆษณานานเกิน

### 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

### 2/5 — Fun game but…

*2024-10-22, version 6.0*

It’s takes a long time to upgrade. Everything is too expensive. They are doing an event right now called Lucky Wheel where you pay 35 diamonds (in game currency) for 1 spin and you get between 1-4 points but the rewards are around 50, 100, 150, etc points, which means AT BEST you have to spend over 400 diamonds to per rewards which is an equivalent to $7 per reward ($.99 per 30 diamonds). And the rewards arnt even that good. At lvl 100 (the equivalent of $14) is ONE mythic upgrade puzzle piece. It cost two shards to upgrade to lvl 2 and and 10 to upgrade lvl 4. So I could pay $14 and not even be able to upgrade my legendary gear. That’s crazy expensive for a mobile game.

### 2/5 — Stop pub a 20euros 😂😂😂

*2024-10-14, version 5.0*

Pub en excès, tellement en excès que par moment même les pubs sont en cours de chargement…. 20e pour stop pub insane 
Jeu delete ++

### 4/5 — ok

*2024-09-29, version 5.0*

Je to dobrá hra, ale nutí do reklam.

### 2/5 — 槓

*2024-09-22, version 5.0*

每次尾王就超級卡到底是在卡啥小

### 4/5 — Good but laggy

*2024-09-18, version 5.0*

Can’t load ads for bonus. Too high prices. But overall good.

### 2/5 — Loved but hated

*2024-09-16*

Love this game but ads do not work

### 4/5 — Really fun game!

*2024-09-13, version 5.0*

This game is super entertaining and addicting. Probably one of the better phone games I’ve ever played.
The only bummer is you need to use “stamina” as a resource to play the game, and often times I will get a random “server response error” that resets my stamina to a number that doesn’t allow me to play. Which can be frustrating when you spend in game currency like diamonds to refill it, only to have it drain for no reason.
Hasn’t stopped me playing yet, but I hope it gets fixed!

### 2/5 — Network erről

*2024-09-13, version 5.0*

Every third day! And too much add….

### 4/5 — Fantastic game

*2024-09-06, version 5.0*

I love this game it reminds me of those flash games on Armour games with space and resource management. I love this unique strategy and challenging gameplay.

I’m pretty sure it’s an issue on my end but my Ads don’t work when I’m trying to gain rewards in game or main menu if there is a way to fix this I would love a response.

### 1/5 — Propaganda

*2024-09-05, version 5.0*

Tem um jogo nessa propaganda. U$9 para desbloquear. Desenvolvedores acham que nadamos em dinheiro.

### 1/5 — Что там насчет авторского права?

*2024-09-03*

Или персонаж случайно похож на Гарри поттера? Я уже молчу, что это просто скучно

### 3/5 — Login Failed

*2024-09-02, version 5.0*

Why can’t login Facebook ? please fix

### 1/5 — Ads The Game

*2024-08-31, version 5.0*

If you want ads every 30 seconds, welcome to the game for you. Pretty and functional but WAY too ad heavy.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2025-04-06, version 6.0*

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, version 6.0*

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.

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2024-12-16, version 6.0*

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, version 6.0*

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

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

*2024-11-12, version 6.0*

Ads time getting longer and longer….

### 1/5 — Trash game. Can’t even play

*2024-10-12, version 5.0*

Keep asking log in and then tell you log in fail 
Are you trying to steal password?

### 1/5 — Nur facebook oder apple anmeldung

*2024-09-26*

Direkt gelöscht, geht nur apple oder facebook anmeldung

### 1/5 — Ad cancer

*2024-09-12, version 5.0*

I played for a month and spent $30, this is where I landed….

Most games have forced ads after every so many levels or ads to watch for bonuses. Not this game. If you want to use CORE mechanics of the game you need to watch ads or you pay $10 a month. 

For that alone, this game is not a game I can support and there are so many ads you will be watching more ads than playing the game. Hard pass.

Fun

### 5/5 — Werbung

*2024-08-31*

Sehr schöner Zeitvertreib ohne Geld. Aber die Werbung geht nicht. Dadurch wird es fast unmöglich, den Rucksack zu vergrößern.

### 5/5 — It’s better now

*2024-08-12, version 4.0*

I heard it is heavy added but I don’t see them….maybe they removed it or my phone broken

### 5/5 — Cool new game

*2024-08-08*

Was interested in the cool new game, seems like it’s really in the early stages, but the devs are active and do patches. It’s fun an simple but has strategy to it.

### 5/5 — 5 stars

*2024-08-08, version 4.0*

Amazing game a lot of fun

### 5/5 — Не працює

*2024-08-05, version 4.0*

На жаль, пограти не вдалося, сервера недоступні. Якщо пусте пограти, оцінку зміню.

### 4/5 — Мова/язык

*2024-10-08, version 5.0*

Якби додали ще й українську або російську мову, то були б найкращі.
