### 3/5 — А

*2026-08-21*

Заипала эта реклама Лига ставок, зависает без остановки крутит свою беспонтовую каличную рулетку 🤬

### 3/5 — В игру не заходит

*2026-08-19*

После обновления не могу зайти в игру, телефон айфон 16 pro max

### 2/5 — 게임은 너무 재밌는 구성인데 번역이 가장 큰 문제

*2026-08-17*

여기저기서 주는 보상들을 어디에 써야하는지도 잘 모르겠고.. 그 보상들로 스펙업시키고 하는 구조 같은데 게임 좋아하고 자주하는 저도 좀 이해가 어렵네요

### 4/5 — Game

*2026-08-17*

Great game. A little too much ads. Feel like a chore every day

### 3/5 — Spoiled.

*2026-08-07*

Without Ads or promos - no advancing the game.  

Should open unlocked Heroes overview. 

Game is good but spoiled with too much promos and hence not growing much.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Ads and promos are optional and mainly provide extra rewards, while progression is possible without them. We understand the current flow can still feel too pushy. You can check unlocked heroes in the hero overview, and we’re continuing to improve progression and UI. We hope you’ll try the next update!

### 3/5 — アップデート後に『No Store』となり課金できません

*2026-08-06*

1.9.6にアップデートしてから、ショップ内のすべての商品が「No Store」と表示され、何も購入できなくなりました。

iPhoneの再起動、アプリの完全削除・再インストール、Appleの「メディアと購入」のサインアウト・サインインまで試しましたが改善しませんでした。

App Storeではアプリ内課金商品は正常に表示されているため、Boom Castle側の問題ではないかと思います。

広告なし（VIP）の期間も終了しましたが、ストアが利用できないため更新もできず困っています。

ご確認をお願いいたします。

**Developer response:** フィードバックありがとうございます！ご不便をおかけして申し訳ありません。すでに再起動や再インストールまでお試しいただいているため、詳しく調査したいです。「No Store」と表示されている画面のスクリーンショットを添えて、[support@terahype.com]までご連絡ください。次回アップデートもぜひお試しください！

### 3/5 — Донат

Нельзя донатить с айфона

**Developer response:** Спасибо за ваш отзыв! Для покупок можно использовать только один Apple ID, привязанный к устройству. Покупки через посредников или сторонние сервисы не поддерживаются. Если оплата всё равно не проходит, напишите нам на [support@terahype.com], и мы постараемся помочь. Надеемся, вы попробуете следующее обновление!

### 3/5 — It’s almost really good

*2026-08-01, version 1.9.5*

Everything just feels so calculated. They made the dungeons almost impossible, some characters are next to useless. You can tell they want you to spend a lot of money to have fun. I use it to pass time but I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone

### 3/5 — Não vale a pena

*2026-07-28*

Divertido mas custa muito pra avançar. Fica praticamente impossível sem gastar dinheiro.

**Developer response:** Agradecemos pelo seu feedback! Boom Castle foi desenvolvido para permitir o progresso sem compras, embora as fases principais sejam um desafio de longo prazo. Arena, Masmorras, Eventos e recompensas anteriores ajudam a fortalecer heróis, muralha, equipamentos e gemas. Esperamos que você experimente a próxima atualização!

### 1/5 — Pay wall

*2026-07-26, version 1.9.5*

Been playing for months and still cannot get past the first stage 25 ending.  Tried upgrading with a new hero and still just a stone wall grind or give money I guess.  Shame it was a cool game but no fun not being able to do anything.  Cash grab for gems is all it became.    Boring now and no reward.  Sorry.. 
Update. Still impossible to beat Stage 25.

### 4/5 — Fun …….but …….

*2026-07-25, version 1.9.5*

Very fun …. I like tower games but after the third (even second ) act it gets almost impossible ….even with purchasing in app upgrades and what not. 


But it’s fun to idle back to and play here and there

### 3/5 — Fun but frustrating

*2026-07-25, version 1.9.5*

This game is super fun until you get stuck on a level for days or even weeks literally.  All upgrades are super expensive and coins are slow to come by. Can feel monotonous at times.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — It’s fun for a week.

*2026-08-14*

It’s really unbalanced game. Some the troops are so hard to put down. Halfway through act 2 becomes impossible to 3 star. To many things require gold, not enough gold given out. Arena is stupid hard.

Update: no improvements, it’s very clear to me developers are using this game as a cash grab. They comment that the other activities are how to progress but getting past the 3rd stage is stupid hard. The leveling progression is slow. The bosses are OP, Cobalt Reaper for instance says it takes +50% fire dmg, that’s a lie, they must have forgot to actually add it in. Never won a round of arena. Gear/hero leveling is absurd, thousands of gold for single level while getting 180 at a time without watching some add. The pace of the game in every aspect ruins it.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! We understand that Act 2, Arena difficulty, and gold progression can feel unbalanced. Main stages are meant to be challenging, while other modes and previous stages help you gather resources for upgrades. We’re continuing to review difficulty and the economy. We hope you’ll try the next update!

### 1/5 — Удаляй быстрее - экономь время!

*2026-08-14*

Долго конечно я играл, не хотел удалять, но терпение лопнуло!
Игра построена чисто «лутке». Смотри рекламу - будет тебе счастье!
Сегодня потратив 1500 жизней, прошел - 0 уровней, 0 уровней, Карл!
В игре меняется только сложность и то только вверх. Играть можно только за 2-3 персов, остальные зачем?
Нельзя сделать выбор хотя бы одно перса в начале битвы, чтобы хоть  чуть увеличить шансы?Из 10 битв только 1 выдает нормальных персов, но сложность… даже не хочется повторяться!
Вообщем и целом - дно!
В утиль!
Разработчики молодцы!

### 1/5 — VIP 평생이용권 돌려주세요

*2026-08-10*

VIP 광고패스 평생 이용권 비활성화 되어 며칠동안 제대로 게임도 못하고 있음. 이런 말도 안되는 버그 만들어 놓고 메일 대응도 안하네.

**Developer response:** 피드백 감사합니다! 불편을 드려 정말 죄송합니다. 구매에 여러 Apple 계정을 사용하고 계신가요? 이제 모든 구매는 실제로 결제한 Apple 계정에 직접 연결되어 확인됩니다. 다른 계정 문제가 아니라면, 최신 업데이트에 이 문제를 해결하는 수정이 포함되어 있습니다. 업데이트 후 다시 확인해 주세요. 다음 업데이트도 확인해 주시길 바랍니다!

### 1/5 — It’s fun until a point

*2026-08-07, version 1.9.6*

It’s really unbalanced game. Some the troops are so hard to put down. Halfway through act 2 becomes impossible to 3 star. To many things require gold, not enough gold given out. Arena is stupid hard.

### 1/5 — This recent update is horrible

*2026-08-07, version 1.9.6*

Another horrible update! They removed my lifetime VIP pass!
Please do not update! Every time it gets worse!

I’ve been playing this for over a year and have enjoyed it so far, though there are some complaints. However, the June 24 update is horrible and made this game much worse. The balance is messed up. I cannot suddenly clear any level in the arena. My strength is over 5,000, but I cannot clear even 1 stage in Onslaught elites. The jewelry reward was significantly reduced. I do not understand why they made such horrible updates in the middle of the season. Really really disappointed.

### 1/5 — No Store

*2026-08-06*

It says no store when I want to make a purchase….annoying.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! If you use multiple Apple accounts, please make sure you’re signed in with the same Apple ID you previously used for purchases. If “No Store” still appears, please contact us at support@terahype.com so we can investigate and help. We hope you’ll try the next update!

### 1/5 — A lot of money or time

*2026-08-05, version 1.9.6*

Be prepared to watch dozens of hours of ads, spend literally hundreds of dollars, or take years to progress.  Everyone needs to earn a living so I believe in supporting developers, but the cost of things in this game is ridiculous.  The. What you get for that money is also not proportional to what you need to progress.  If you do not spend real money they ad you for everything and some of the ads you have to watch are 90 seconds.  Odds to get anything useful are .001% after watching an ad or combining things so it is really fun at first but about two weeks in pull out you wallet.

### 1/5 — Pay wall

*2026-08-02, version 1.9.5*

Been playing for months and still cannot get past the first stage 25 ending.  Tried upgrading with a new hero and still just a stone wall grind or give money I guess.  Shame it was a cool game but no fun not being able to do anything.  Cash grab for gems is all it became.    Boring now and no reward.  Sorry.. 
Update. Finally barely beat Stage 25 and the following stages are just more brick walls.  The game has lost its fun factor and is basically just a login to collect daily’s and grind grind grind.  Started great when you were still able to move a story along and beat Stages.  Had to delete it.

### 1/5 — Immediately failed

*2026-08-01, version 1.9.5*

I’m tired of these games having a limit to the matches you can play. The. You have to pay to play more. Didn’t even play the game because I know it’s garbage by the currency to just start a match.

### 1/5 — Не качайте

*2026-07-31*

Игра интересная , но очень медленное развитие , и полно рекламы и доната за бешенную сумму

**Developer response:** Спасибо за ваш отзыв! Реклама необязательна и даёт дополнительные награды, а покупки служат для ускорения прогресса. Развитие рассчитано на длительную игру: ресурсы можно получать в прошлых этапах, событиях, подземельях и на Арене. Мы продолжаем улучшать баланс и надеемся, что вы попробуете следующее обновление!

Joss game. I like it

### 5/5 — Observation générale sans critique .

*2026-07-24*

Parfois difficile de comprendre la progression dans l équipement . Les particularités ( feu- glace - sombre … ) leur association à t - elle une répercussion sur la puissance . Je cherche encore à comprendre bcp de détails et leurs utilités…
