Works on iPod touch 2G. ### 5/5 — 恳请开发者维护一下 *2019-02-24* 很多年以前玩了这款游戏 非常棒 可惜现在没办法玩了 ### 5/5 — 好多年前就下了，可惜不维护了，现在一直卡 *2018-08-19* 强烈要求开发者维护一下这款游戏，非常好玩，很喜欢！ ### 1/5 — Kept locking up *2015-12-25, version 1.2* I agree that the AImon this game is very tough, even on easy settings. I won a couple games on the first board, but no other boards ever opened, and then it stopped responding to taps. I hope the developers update it and fix some of its problems. Coulef be a fun game but right now it's too much bother. ### 1/5 — 经常无法操作，闪退 *2015-05-05* 垃圾 ### 5/5 — 还号 *2014-02-06* 挺好的。 就是在操的时候牛子太大了，会有点挤，不过射的时候好舒服阿... ### 4/5 — Genuinely difficult *2013-10-20, version 1.2* This game was amazing, but how has it not been updated for iPhone 5! It's actually pretty hard, and I would be so happy to have a non-crashing, tall-screen version on my new phone! ### 2/5 — :/ *2013-08-06, version 1.2* looks like a really fun game EXCEPT I can't play on it, as soon as I choose which team I want it crashes! PLEASE FIX!!!! ### 2/5 — constant crashing *2013-08-02, version 1.2* fun game.... when it decides to work long enough to play a level. but it crashes every 30 seconds (im not even exaggerating) ### 1/5 — Almost Impossible *2013-07-14, version 1.2* Can't beat first or second levels. I'm not sure why, but all of the sudden it says autocomplete at the top of the screen, and then I lose. ## Frequently asked questions about Battle Slugs ### What is Battle Slugs?
