When is the AI. You can play four or five troops and they’ll play one. And it’s almost 99% AI because I only get one out of 10 games where there’s another human opponent. If you quit because ai not playing cards. At 5 sec in to count down it starts to play. But it too late **Developer response:** Thank you for your review, mcknight1976. Kindly tell us more about the issues you have with the game or any feedback at https://helpdesk.433.co.kr/?n=battleboom as we are always looking for ways to improve the game more. ### 3/5 — Unable to join clans! *2021-09-30, version 2.1.5* Fun game, needs a bit of balance, a few of the right cards up front allows you to roll over stronger opponents due to sheer numbers and the other way around just as quickly. I am unable to join clans my friends have made because it says they don’t exist. I’ve used the clan name as well as their Id number with same results. Can’t find any of the other players I’ve battled with as well. Kinda off putting. Fun for a quick play but wanting to use the clan perks and being unable is a real drawback :( 5 stars instantly if these get fixed! **Developer response:** We apologize for the inconvenience, TryThisName22. Kindly try searching for your friend's clan at the local ranking and apply from there. ### 3/5 — Annoying deck issue *2021-05-19, version 2.1.3* I feel like this game would be so much better if the deck system was better. There are periods where I have no cards to play as a result the opposing team gets a hold of the field. Its ridiculous—- overall the games good but has room to improve. ### 2/5 — Disappointed that they literally ripped off of another game *2020-09-10, version 1.1.7* This game is practically a rip off of Guns Up, a PC/PS4 game. They literally copied a few of the art work/icons! Also, the music sounds extremely similar too. I’m not going to jump to conclusions, maybe they have license or permission. However, I am disappointed in lack of originality It is very similar to Clash Royale, where cards are dispensed to you throughout the battle and the cards are random. This game also has chests with random loot that can only be opened after some time. There wasn’t really a proper tutorial and I was pretty confused on what were good units and what unit is good for what job. Games can snowball pretty hard and if you don’t start out with [overpowered card] in your hand then you lose 5/10 meh **Developer response:** We are saddened to hear about this, Rumflr. Nevertheless, we are always open to suggestions on how we can improve the game and give our players an enjoyable gaming experience. If you have questions or concerns, kindly send your concerns here: https://fourthirtythree.helpshift.com/a/battle-boom/ ### 4/5 — Good game but replays are false. *2020-08-30, version 1.1.7* Only problem I have encountered was a Replay issue. While I was watching my replay from 10 minutes ago I noticed that it wasn’t accurate. Like how I used EMP soldiers to stun a tank. But he puts Old fighting mechs to smash my EMP troops to stun them. Clearly in the replay it didn’t smash my troops nor my EMP- Soldiers. Then after this encounter I found another thing that didn’t happen. A EMP Soldier went for the mortar which didn’t happen. Then the 2nd EMP soldiers came 3 seconds before the EMP soldier destroyed the mortar. Please fix this and make it so u actually record it. **Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feedback, bygfvbfuvhvrfevne.

When u start out u level up pretty quickly. Every 500 xp u move up a class and get new units. This is all great until u reach the 5000 range. The big problem is at 5000. At the end of each month there is a reset of your rank. If You didn’t reach 6200 during that month you get set back to 5000. So 90% of the people are stuck in this group. So if your just reaching 5000 for the first time your units are in the 5 and 6 range but since pretty much everyone gets reset to 5000 each month you will now be facing people with units that are 7,8 and 9 because you both have the same xp score of 5000. To make it even worse if lose 2/3 matches in a row this game will match u with a bot player who you can easily beat which moves you back up to face the real players that u have no chance of beating. It’s a never ending cycle. I personally know people who been playing for over 2 years including myself and have never broke the 6200 level. So that means each month U have to try and beat there level 8 and 9 units. In fact my clan has been one of the top clans in the game and not 1 person has made 6200. So enjoy it while you can but realize no matter how much money u spend you will be stuck and never advance. **Developer response:** We appreciate the honest feedback, Wowitsbob. Kindly note that players are matched according to their respective Ranks. On the other hand, rest assured that your concern is noted as feedback to help improve this, and other aspects the game further. ### 3/5 — Game used to be good *2018-12-24, version 1.1.7* I don’t like 1v1. Now in 2v2, 19/20 matches I either get matched with a bot or someone terrible at the game. I quit every game with a bot or a fool on my team. This problem has got much worse over time. I don’t play these games to play with bots. It also takes much too long to upgrade cards compared to other similar games. Time to quit ### 3/5 — Fun but needs work *2018-11-15, version 1.1.5* This game is like most games of this type. You’re either going to play 50 different troops and overwhelm your opponent or they’ll do the same to you. There’s not too many games that feel fair. 9/10 times someone’s gonna get destroyed simply because they’re opponent summoned three times as many units as they did. ### 2/5 — P2W with very little reward *2018-10-19, version 1.1.5* Game starts off interesting, giving you pve to learn the ropes, but shortly into the game it level locks you from playing further into pve. The pvp quickly becomes unfair due to highly leveled troops as well as rare and legendary troops stepping onto the field. This may sound cool at first but when you realize how reward starved you are playing free it QUICKLY becomes a lackluster game. I’ve put close to 3-4hours into the game though I can quickly tell this game is a MASSIVE grind with sluggish rewards that it’s not even tempting to drop money into the game. You basically try a demos worth with the f2p. I’d move on if I were you. ### 3/5 — Good game needs work *2018-09-22, version 1.1.5* Need to get rid of the time release card and just have a set number in you can play from your hand. Waiting for a card to pop up kills the strategy and then it jus becomes a card dump because you’re waiting for a card to release to your hand n just rush play whatever comes next. Its a very frustrating aspect of the game. Anyone who plays will see what im talking about. ### 2/5 — Tanks are broken / buggy exploit *2018-07-24, version 1.1.4* Everyone just uses tanks now because of an exploit... the strategy was fun before this. Now, whenever you destroy an enemy tank for the first time after it is deployed, it respawns immediately with full health. The dying unit is swapped with a new one, so effectively every tank card gives four tanks...this has been present for weeks, cmon guys, fix this serious exploit. ### 4/5 — Cool Game so far *2018-07-16, version 1.1.0* Fun and easy to play. A simplified version of a game from PSN. Luck of the draw and a bit of strategy is all that is required. Graphics are great. Only reason for the 4 star review so far is the time to open boxes. I can fill my box limit in a few minutes but takes hours to open even the most basic boxes. Lower the base boxes to at the most an hour and a 5 star review is what you get. ### 4/5 — Great game *2018-05-28, version 1.0.9* I love it but some cards seem very over powered, cards that stun troops have a long effect, and gameplay seems a little bit too unbalenced as you can get a bunch of cards that aren’t relevant to situational use. Maybe letting the player pick there starting hand and the rest be random could help out. Also some cards aren’t effective enough and support cards have to huge a radius on the field, things like missiles and bombing runs make sense but a stun field that lasts 11 seconds is very OVERPOWERED, and troops that stun after every hit repeatedly is very OVERPOWERED as well. Its overall still a good game, but there could be a few improvements ### 3/5 — Pretty Good *2018-04-30, version 1.0.8* As stated in other posts, this game can be somewhat frustrating when you are matched with a player who has way more force than you do. And then there are games where you are the one overpowering someone else. I'm stuck on stage 5-5 because it lags so bad. Developers, can you please fix this? Thanks! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Total Garbage *2020-04-16, version 1.1.7* Matches players who are very unequal. Totes rewards for leveling up but each loss knocks you down, so it’s a never ending climb and you are set up for failure. Even if you constantly win due to skill, you WILL be matched with an unbeatable match just to reset your points. I even surrendered enough to go for 2500 down to 1000 and ended up with players just as strong as me, they either did the same or paid to play. Really proves the pointlessness of it. Deleted. Don’t waste your time. Fun for a day or two, that’s it. **Developer response:** We apologize for this unpleasant experience, 9183746272. We would like to remind you that you will be matched to an opponent that is closer to your ranking points in battle. Nevertheless, we will take note of your concern for our game improvements on our future game updates. ### 1/5 — Crash *2019-10-16, version 1.1.7* All it does is crash in a 2v2, don’t say it’s my device either. I can run fortnite fine, pun g, and all kinds of stuff but I cant run something that literally takes less ram than clash Royale you need to update your game... and I only have this problem in a 2v2, I’m not going to give a higher rating till you fix the crashing problem. Every 5 seconds in a 2v2 it crashed, so no. You’re getting a 1 star till that’s fixed. ### 1/5 — Too many glitches and cheaters *2019-09-14, version 1.1.7* Used to be a good game but deleting now because I’m tired of my units dying for no reason and my base blowing up when it has full health. Also there’s too many cheaters that unleash more players than there is points in the game. I tried addressing support and they said they wanted me to video tape it happening but I’m not going to sit there in screen record until hit happens. ### 1/5 — Promotes Poison Gas Warfare *2019-01-31, version 1.1.7* This game promotes using poison gas for warfare. This is against the Geneva Convention and should not be used in children's games. This app should be boycott or banned... I have talked to their developers and they have ignored my request to change the name of the weapon. They could call it bad smell, acid bath or anything else. This is a current world issue and the developers are insensitive to the real world genocide using poison gas. This is not for children... take responsibility for your actions. People DO NOT WANT IRRESPONSIBLE DEVELOPERS programming them to think that poison gas is in any way OK. ### 1/5 — Glitchy *2018-03-28, version 1.0.7* Love the game, but it glitches ALL the time. You are in the middle of a battle and you go to use one of your troops and you put the icon on the battlefield and the WiFi/connection symbol pops up and the game pauses but when it reconnects the troop you wanted to use is gone. I checked my WiFi connection and I’m at full bars/strength. Also I’m playing this game at 2-3am in the House so there is no other devices interfering. After giving it another try the connection issue is STILL not fixed and Game is being deleted after writing this review. VERY DISAPPOINTED 😔 ### 1/5 — Greedy devs *2018-03-21, version 1.0.7* There’s a lot of play to win in this game where they have access to every troop and the strongest ones. Not only that, a lot of troops are very poorly balanced and some guys have the most insane decks with high leveled units. The UI in-game is not appealing, either. It’s slow and laggy at times and going through multiple pages just to look for one troop is ridiculous. You guys could update and do better than that. The devs seem to not really care about the game either, they just put it out and sheep are falling for it and giving them money like it’s nothing. The latest app update had ZERO description of anything, there is also no maintenance packages for players for their nonsense. The devs of this game appear greedy and did not give much to new players to start out too. ### 2/5 — Issues *2022-05-04, version 2.1.6* Game is pretty good. Sometimes there is severe lag and it causes you to lose the game. Also I am unable to join any clans. I decided to create a clan but for the last 2 weeks it won’t allow me to as the “system is busy”. Getting frustrated as you can only do so much or unlock so many achievements without a clan. ### 2/5 — It’s ok *2021-09-05, version 2.1.5* The single player is good but then you have to do battles with online players to be able to start up the single player again and when you do battles it don’t pair u up to players that are as strong as you it puts you up to ransoms and it’ll be impossible to win when your going against players who are stronger. ### 2/5 — Poor servers *2021-04-23, version 2.1.2* Last update turned it into andoid version foul of bugs! why there is no tv for 2v2 because to me 2v2s is more interesting than 1v1 and we should be able to send friend request to someone who last play with or block them in order to never be a teammate sometimes my teammate bring same units with different levels!!! and there is problems with ads the time and so on for example when you go out of game and comeback Usually problem occurs for matchmaking 😡 Even problem in stages 😑 I have to use vpn otherwise I can’t play! ### 2/5 — Too long to find a match... *2020-12-29, version 1.1.7* Could be a great game, but it takes too long to find a 1v1 match (2v2 even longer) and I can’t progress in the stages because I’m not ranked high enough. I end up sitting and waiting more than playing. At least let us go up against bots so we can actually play. Hard pass until something is done to fix the wait time. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — So good *2021-04-17, version 1.1.7* I like it so much I have a lot of good characters you should really try it it is free there is even legendary’s it’s the most fun game I’ve ever had you should try it!! ### 5/5 — Battle boom: my review. *2020-05-14, version 1.1.7* Overall the game is amazing and extremely fun but they just recently put the server under maintained every yesterday and it finished. But for some reason after the maintenance I unlocked all my chests and when I tried to open them the just disappeared and gave me nothing. That is so weird. PLEASW FIX THIS BATTLE BOOM.😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 ### 5/5 — Hope you read this. Love the game but couple improvements: *2019-12-27, version 1.1.7* - for missions, be more creative. Add something like “flawless victory” or “save the first unit until the end of battle” or “winning streak 10 wins” etc. current missions are too boring. - regarding in game play, we have to direct the unit(s) to fire a specific enemy unit. This will add a lot fun! - the money is not enough for all updates. Increase cash amount that is gained through chests. - add some new units. - the base has to be able to fire. Thanks! ### 5/5 — This game is amazing ! *2019-10-06, version 1.1.7* To be honest, I have deleted this game many times, but installed it later became I couldn't help controlling myself and I could not find a game to replace it so far. This is my first time to review a game. ### 5/5 — The worst ever and stop hiding honest reviews *2019-02-01, version 1.1.7* It’s the best game for a few days......then after that...you will keep loosing and loosing just to make you pay....even then....they will let you enjoy for a couple of days then back to loosing. The “ play against other players “ is a big lie, only for fools to believe. So, download the game,enjoy it for a couple of days and that’s it, just delete it and move on cuz it will become boring and stressful. ### 5/5 — Great Game, but... *2018-06-04, version 1.0.9* I think the concept of the game is great, but there should definitely be a lower max amount of money that you can collect in battle b/c we were both waiting for each other to attacking and if went on for like 3 minute before we started. They shouldn’t let the money climb over 100$ in my opinion ### 5/5 — Needs some tweaks... *2018-05-06, version 1.0.8* I absolutely love this game but, in my opinion, I think you should be able to sell units and possibly trash boxes you don’t want. Other than those two...”suggestions”...the games fantastic!! Keep up the good work. ### 5/5 — At the core, great concept! *2018-04-17, version 1.0.8* This game is really fun and entertaining. Although it needs some card balancing, better rewards from chests and connection tweaks, I can see the potential for this game! I wish it were half as popular as CR. I hope to see this game take off! (And I almost never say that about a mobile game) ### 5/5 — Very fun *2018-03-23, version 1.0.7* It’s a good game. It actually has strategy in it and I enjoyed it very much. However I would like to know how all these people are getting skins for their bases and profile pictures. ### 5/5 — Very Fun! *2018-03-12, version 1.0.6* I enjoy playing this fun but sometimes challenging game. I like the part where you can build up defenses but also attack. I also love it when my rank absolutely destroys someone and they fly halfway across the screen. Very fun. 11/10 IGN --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
