However, I find it almost unworkable because Google throws so many adds at you they either, distract your work, take over the screen, shut down the app dumping your work, or try and sell you an add blocker. There needs to be an add free version of this for a reasonable cost. - ### 4/5 — Interesting, but some errors *2022-11-05, version 1.8.1* Overall, this is a very interesting app. It is unique and really allows users to see the devastation that nuclear weapons could produce. However, I still noticed some errors, specifically with the “estimated causalities” section. When using a nuke on Hawaii, I consistently got around 3.9 million causalities as an estimate. The current population of Hawaii is only about 1.5 million. I’m not sure if the app is trying to take into account tourists, but I don’t believe there is almost 4 million people on there main island of Hawaii at one time. That was just something I noticed though. Overall, unique and interesting app. ### 3/5 — Error issue *2022-10-06, version 1.8.1* When i first got this, i liked it. Now it seems to have a major issue. I think this app was created in russia. When calculating the number of casualties for Moscow, all I get is an Data unknown error message, yet when i do the same on Washington dc i get the results on casualties. A bit one sided. ### 3/5 — Casualties error *2022-08-21, version 1.7.12* Great app but everytime i use a weapon is says error for casualties ive uninstalled and reinstalled and it doesn’t work ### 2/5 — Eh *2022-08-07, version 1.7.12* It was fun to play with until now it doesn’t work for me all it says it error every time even restarted my phone and still the same so that’s just great ### 4/5 — Useful, interesting to work with *2022-04-19, version 1.7.11* But I would pay for ad removal. The popups make it unpleasant to use ### 2/5 — Lacking necessary functionality *2022-03-26, version 1.7.11* The interface seems less than user friendly. I have yet to see a functioning casualty count which seems to be a function it’s supposed to have. The calculated output doesn’t take into account the topography of the landscape, to distort realistically what the blast area would be. Nor does the app have any sort of automatic or manual data to incorporate winds and temps in regards to how they would affect the fallout, which this app also doesn’t project either. It seems to just make circles for you. ### 2/5 — Glitchy??? *2022-02-24, version 1.7.11* Ive just downloaded this game and at first glance it looked pretty cool. Once I started playing it seemed fine until all my nukes got stuck on calculating and then it says error. I dont know if I can fix this or if its just a bug but please help. ### 2/5 — Problem with casualties *2022-01-27, version 1.7.11* I just downloaded it and every time I drop a nuke the casualties bar just says calculation for about a minute, then says error. I am on WiFi and it worked once, the first time I ever did it. ### 2/5 — Blur *2021-11-17, version 1.7.8* The map is blurry and you cannot count anything under 7 kt ### 4/5 — Fix a bug *2021-08-21, version 1.7.6* Please fix the “error” message ### 3/5 — The game is good but one problem *2021-08-05, version 1.7.6* I need a choice for choosing a bomb and it lied it said press type to select bomb and didn’t give the option fix this ### 4/5 — Question *2021-05-22, version 1.7.3* Are you able to actually launch a nuke and watch it explode? If so, how do you do it ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads ads and more ads *2022-10-02, version 1.8.1* If you want a worthless spammed up app that dumps full screen ads on you. Then this is the app for you. The Idiot developer should know better. ### 1/5 — Unusual… *2022-09-10, version 1.8* if it’s called “BlastSim”, why can’t you add a “LAUNCH” button? ### 1/5 — Fix *2022-08-29, version 1.7.12* When I’m trying to deploy it it keep saying error fix this please ### 1/5 — We’re is launch button *2022-08-20, version 1.7.12* I’m like wha no launch add a big red button ### 1/5 — Games *2022-03-10, version 1.7.11* After download and opening the app after five minutes it redirects you to games and won’t allow you to go back to the app. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP. ### 1/5 — Hard to use *2022-03-03, version 1.7.11* Horrible design very difficult to use and hard to tell what colors correspond to on the chart ### 1/5 — Ads are frequent *2021-01-03, version 1.6.10* and annoying ### 1/5 — Nukemap rip-off could be so much better *2020-12-28, version 1.6.10* Every four bombs you get the most annoying ads which can’t be turned off or bought off. There is an a universal counter so you don’t know total deaths with multiple bombs. The 100 make a ton Tsar bomba isn’t included. I would pay money if they fixed this ### 1/5 — Broken Casuality Count *2020-05-14, version 1.3.6* The casualty count always says “error please try again” ### 1/5 — Incorrect Casualty Numbers *2020-02-01, version 1.3.3* The casualty count is off by hundreds of thousands in some towns/cities. Not sure where the devs get their census info but it’s comically incorrect. When referencing US census numbers to the app’s numbers, the values are substantially off. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nice but should be more immersive. *2023-04-03* What i mean by immersive i mean like when you drop the bomb theres a model of that bomb. Then the app would be better for me. ### 5/5 — best app ever *2023-01-01, version 1.8.3* i now get to defend my country’s friend and bomb north korea thx ### 5/5 — 1 problem *2022-09-02, version 1.7.12* There is one problem that I want fixed it’s that the casualty number keeps saying error and I just want it fixed ### 5/5 — 1 Problem *2022-08-17, version 1.7.12* The causalty counter always and I mean ALWAYS SAYS ERROR. Sorry got carried away there Please fix this problem also it sometimes just gets blocked by an ad. ### 5/5 — With Biden marching us to WWIII, you may need this… *2022-08-17, version 1.7.12* …to decide where you want to relocate to try and survive the China Joe Follies to come. Good luck. ### 5/5 — Why I hate adds *2021-10-27, version 1.7.8* Please sop sending ads I mean I’m tired of them ### 5/5 — It’s the best *2021-07-25, version 1.7.6* It’s the best nuke game for mobile I can find but you should add a way to show the mushroom cloud ### 5/5 — One problem *2021-05-12, version 1.7.3* You should add a feature where you can change the type of bomb. Because you have no idea what bomb your throwing Thank you, and i hope it was useful. ### 5/5 — Small town boy *2020-12-20, version 1.6.10* I love North Korea ### 5/5 — Great but needs more factors *2020-06-13, version 1.3.8* It is great but it needs more features and updates. Great game overall 😀 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
