### 4/5 — 5 stars when you add the ability to play Da Gobz again

*2026-08-19, version 1.1.1*

That is all

### 4/5 — Love the game however i have asuggestion

*2026-07-17, version 1.0.3*

I love playing this about as much as i did with the first game, however i have a suggestion to make

A gamemode that functions similarly to the survival gamemode from block fortress 1, however letting you choose which factions to fight instead of them being pre determined as it is in the campaign

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2026-02-20, version 1.0.3*

I love the game but it’d be nice if it’s backbone compatible. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Very good game

*2026-02-11*

Block fortress played a huge, I mean massive role in my childhood, I woke up from a dream and remember the game and I saw they made a second one, I’ve loved every bit of it so far

### 5/5 — Better than 1!

*2026-01-24*

Overall this is definitely an improvement from 1. A few things are missing in sandbox mode, but other than that. Highly recommend to download.

### 5/5 — A+

*2025-12-25, version 1.0.3*

Its a solid game. I wish we can get more updates to improve the game.

### 5/5 — The sequel we needed

*2025-12-15*

I wasn't even expecting this game, but they did it again! One of my favorite games on mobile made better.

### 5/5 — I love the game

*2025-11-26, version 1.0.3*

Add it to the switch

### 4/5 — Good but needs some balancing and improvements

*2025-11-23*

I love this game it’s a major improvement over the first however some enemies need to be nerfed 

1. Immortals should have a set limit of how many blockoids it spawns at a time and a cool down, often times because they are constantly spawning allies and if they get caught in a situation where everything is focused on them it causes some severe issues with all the rendering needed to be done

2,disintegrators,annihilators and fire bearers should only spawn one at a time same regardless of whether or not the equivalent on a different race is active so when one dies another spawns in after a cool down 

3. Jumpers shouldn’t be able to jump halfway across the map to your barracks or banner or at least add some sort of anti air weapon or turret to counter them

4.brutes dear god they need to be nerfed it takes forever to kill one to get it to split 

5. Have special conditions like fog,pollution,pitch black etc effect enemies and not just the players

6. Make holo guns self heating as well as flamethrowers and melt guns 
Because holo guns and supposed to be for stealth but they are nullified on artic planets especially when it’s foggy when they can be crucial

7. Make the targeter mods bypass the effects of fog allowing the respective turret to keep its original range 

8. Allow any light blocks and detectors to remove fog in its respective range and help guns see through fog as well 

9. Decrease the price needed to upgrade global mods 

Other than that this game is great

### 5/5 — That was so cool

*2025-11-23*

That game look so cool. I can play this game and shoot some enemies and you will shoot them off. You can see that game looks new and you will play it. Either do I did for this game for the action you can defend it. And play tutorial.

### 5/5 — Nice game developers proud !!!

*2025-11-19*

Play and you will know

### 5/5 — Super

*2025-11-19, version 1.0.3*

Easily the most creative mobile game I’ve played and it’s not p2w.

### 5/5 — Give it a try

*2025-11-18, version 1.0.3*

I have been having a lot of fun so far with this game as it is very addictive, there is a lot of customisation which is fun the only thing I wish they would add would be co-op so I could play with my friends :)

### 5/5 — THEY FIXED EVERYTHING WRONG WITH THE FIRST ONE

*2025-11-04, version 1.0.3*

Ignore the extra stuff they added the campaign is like a better version of the first

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-02-09*

The game is just hard to play my towers and weapons do so little damage the enemies do so much damage to my buildings they for some reason melee enemies can do this:
              ⬅️↖️
              🟩⬆️
                   ❔⬅️melee enemy
And my towers can’t do anything about this also you can’t move buildings so you have to delete it but you get half the resources used to build it  another trash mechanic is if you die you have to go back all the back to the start of the level

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-01-18, version 1.0.3*

I’m disgusted with how much time I spent on this junk game. Just like all their games it’s gets stupid hard. It was fun until they have units that shoot a fireball in a straight line that completely destroy everything in its path. Can counter them with snipers but they hit you at night and took out my whole damn base. Hit retry thinking it would retry the level but instead it restarted the whole world I was on. 38 waves I did gone just like that. Wtf. Never will I play one of your games again. Thank you for making garbage.

### 1/5 — Ads and cheap mechanics

*2025-11-23, version 1.0.3*

Expect to watch a hundred ads to make progress. And enemies spawn on your base so it doesn't matter how much effort you put into building defenses

### 1/5 — FTP Slop

*2025-09-27, version 1.0.3*

More free-to-play slop from a formerly fun studio. Avoid.

### 1/5 — Connection error

*2025-09-18, version 1.0*

Fails to connect to the server

### 2/5 — Overly grindy and ads trivialize major gameplay

*2026-02-22*

The game has a lot contents gathered from previous block fortress game and has a lot of quality of life improvements. However, most contents are locked for low lvl. Gaining lvl is way too grindy, and the grind is just pointless. The champion mode is kind of too slow paced and you do not get enough resource unless you watch ads or buy the ads-free pass which cost irl money. Btw i don’t think it’s intended but the retry option turn into reset when choose to not watch ads. The other complaints of the game: the troops ai are way too terrible. The water planet with pollution champion mode just shows the developers have not played their game enough. The control panel is bad (there is no rearrange option). The missions mode are hard because you can’t see anything and need to remember everything. The targeter should show enemy type, otherwise it just block your view of the target. The combat upgrade should not be using global resource. The first time i played it, i thought the upgrade is global, so i upgraded everything, the game became insanely eazy. Then I move to next stage realizing they are all gone, and i could use the global resource to get global stuffs instead. In contrary, the game becames extreme unbalanced if no global resource is dumped on those upgrades. Overall, even though the game has great potential, I do think the developers kinda ruin the game for ads and pointless grind.

### 2/5 — Remove ad is too expensive

*2025-11-13*

As the title say. The game is not playable without vip account, and the price is 10 dollar, which is rather high

### 2/5 — Missing in app purchase

*2025-09-25*

Bought some block bucks to purchase an item, saw it on the shop as discounted clicked purchased and did not receive the item. The game however did remove the block bucks. Emailed support and have not heard anything back. Other then that decent game

### 3/5 — Ads kill the game

*2025-12-18, version 1.0.3*

The game would be fun but watching 5 minutes worth of ads in between rounds to get your resources is a total game killer

### 3/5 — An excellent follow up to the first game. Well done Foursaken Media! But it has it’s issues.

*2025-09-30, version 1.0.3*

I absolutely adore block fortress, by far my favourite mobile game and I had high hopes for this release! The game so far is in a brilliant state for mobile. It is brilliant it supports controller and has most of the features of the 1st game plus additional extras. The game feels polished and seems to play well. Most importantly, it is fun and an actual game which is the biggest challenge with mobile games these days! 

That being said, there are a few areas it falls short imo. Please developers if you read this, do not take this feedback negatively as the game is awesome, I am giving my feedback so that you can have some insight into a original players view and because in my mind it might help in some way!

The biggest gripe I have is the apparent lack of a traditional/standard survival mode like in the original. I understand the campaign and missions provide similar survival experiences but it just doesn’t feel right and is personally slightly jarring after I have played over 10+ years in the original to not be able to just hop in and set a round record! It is very possible that I have missed this mode due to it being a button in the new gui which I have missed/ not yet seen in which case I apologise, although I am loving the style of the gui!

Second, I was slightly disappointed at the apparent lack of control over the barracks troops you can buy, my interpretation of the prerelease trailer was that you could control your troops (similar to that of the bf:war heroes) not just your bot like game 1. I might be missing something here though if not, it’s an idea for future content?  I understand this isn’t an issue per say and is more just me thinking rather big!

Third is the economy to me feels very expensive compared to the resource income. I never seem to have enough resources! I am not sure if this is because I have not had enough time to progress far enough yet to get the higher production rates or if it is because of my experience playing the original with top mod configurations!

Fourth is the clear greed for money and adverts. Why can’t I reset my game from within battle (to go back to before the battle started) without being asked if I A want to watch an advert or B want to clear my save file. Why every time I open the game does it pop up with a new bundle for me to buy despite having all but 1 item from it. This scheme is a downgrade from the 1st game.

That brings me onto my final point, the mod system. It feels clunky and weird to me, especially in conjunction with the item upgrades for each planet. I love the concept of the level flags providing mod currency in levels but I don’t think it needed changing from the original besides that currency change. It feels to me like instead of the weapons needing upgrading and having random mods that each planet should have unique mods for each item (and the player) to then purchase instead of the stats upgrades. I don’t think I have explained myself very well and I don’t think this is practical but it would add a layer of uniqueness and complexity to each planet.

Thank you for taking the time to read this if you do and please continue to provide awesome content & mobile games! You are awesome devs!

### 5/5 — baller game

*2026-08-19, version 1.1.1*

you won’t run out of stuff to do guarantee u that

### 5/5 — Actually such a gem

*2026-08-14, version 1.1*

Literally is like an rts game, jack and slash, and building game all in one. It’s like if Minecraft and helldivers had a baby. Would 100% reccomend

### 5/5 — Multiplayer?

*2026-07-02*

Hello! I really love Block Fortress 2, but I can't find the multiplayer/co-op mode anywhere in my game menu. Could you please tell me if co-op is already available for my version, or when the multiplayer update will be officially released for everyone? Thank you!"

### 5/5 — ???

*2026-06-03, version 1.0.3*

Why is the legs and arms not attached to his body??

### 5/5 — Amazing game

*2026-05-29, version 1.0.3*

This game is really good. No sarcasm. Simply an amazing mobile game. Though I’d with they’d add more troops or add a second drone slot, but that’s completely fine since the game is amazing as is.

### 5/5 — Very fun

*2026-05-28, version 1.0.3*

So fun to play

### 5/5 — Brilliant Sequel

*2026-05-15, version 1.0.3*

Really fun, the game is definitely worth trying whether you’re a fan of the series or new, it’s great building defences, having big satisfying battles, trying to beat your best survival wave. It’s very replay-able with randomly generated levels and a huge variety of enemies, hazards and equipment to use. 10/10

### 5/5 — W game

*2026-03-22, version 1.0.3*

This is my favorite game studio and i hope they add a online way to play soon

### 5/5 — Peak

*2026-03-15, version 1.0.3*

The first game was great, and this sequel expands on everything that was good about the original. Machine gun spam is the only true route to heaven.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-03-01*

Aside from the micro-transactions, it’s nice and fun to play
