Please allow us to access more than one mission and leave the sign in page without hitting anything ### 2/5 — Cool game, but… *2024-09-23* But you have to pay monthly to play it. Sure you get access to the other games made by the studio, but I’m not here for the other games. I’m here to pay this one. This game’s potential is being squandered by this. If I wanted to pay, I’d get Door Kickers which will only charge me once. Besides, the game isn’t getting frequent updates or new content often, so it’s not worth paying per month to be able to play it. It’s also a game that people only play a few minutes per day that is if they actually play it daily. So yeah, just toss a couple dollars towards Door Kickers instead of this. ### 3/5 — Great game but… *2024-04-11* The game only lets me play like 1 map and for everything else I have to play not to mention it’s kinda limited in how difficult the game is when you have entirely memorized the map ### 4/5 — please add this *2023-08-24* you should add berets for free in the hats and add delta force please ### 2/5 — Can’t play without subscribing first *2023-02-03* It would be nice to provide a few levels for free, and then ask you to pay a fee or subscription to continue playing. ### 4/5 — Amazing game *2022-12-17, version 2.4.38* This game is very amazing with everything ranging from detail to the outfits and items this game beats all but the only reason I give this a four out of five is because well I’m not complaining and all but the fact that you can only play one mission and you can’t really buy any guns unless you buy the subscription at 4.99 which I can’t really afford at all unless I do a lot of traveling which I can’t of course so is there a way I can maybe play another mission at least maybe the second one because playing the same mission on repeat kinda gets boring at times you get what I’m saying ### 2/5 — It was a good game *2022-10-30* Once I had finally been able to unlock the second level, I was told to pay monthly to play it. This was disappointing since I had been playing this all day just to be told to pay a subscription for a mobile game I probably would delete in a week. Besides the paywall, it was fun while it lasted and would be a really cool game. ### 3/5 — Free App = Hoax *2022-08-27* Ok, hear me out, this game great. I love the idea of making your own swat squad, breaching into buildings to take down criminals and/or terrorists. Not only that, but the game is free! Is what I would say if it actually was… the way the game is free on the App Store doesn’t settle in with the game devs. This game is pretty much click bait in a way that I wish wasn’t in. As I said at the beginning, this game is so far great in every way, or maybe minus the subscription part but you get it. Why make a game thats free and then have them pay after they play ONE LEVEL or else they can’t proceed further! At that point just make them pay for the game and make the subscription an option guys. All in all, pls fix this (if you want), but with all the negativity aside. Great game, highly suggested unless you can’t get your hands on your mom’s debit card. ### 3/5 — Good game but ruined it *2022-08-06* I downloaded a game I loved it but then I got enough stars for the next map but when I tried it I need to pay 4.99 just to get every map which is actually stupid because now I have been grinding so I am very disappointed of this and the game owners need to fix this ### 3/5 — This is great game but *2022-07-06* This is a great game and has really good strategy but every thing is pay to win so I can’t play with out paying 7 bucks a week witch I can’t afford but other than that I had to delete the game because it’s just so expensive for every thing and always bugging me. 3 stars ### 2/5 — Fun, but very very limited *2022-07-01, version 2.4.38* I love the game for what it is because it’s a classic game that’s very tactical. The only problem that makes this a two star review is how you have to pay $5.99 a month for the full thing?! I could get this for pc much much cheaper.. for instance after three months of playing (if you love this game you will play forever.) I would be paying $15 which is already concerning but even if you forgot about the game and had a subscription you would have payed $60 for it. That’s more than a AAA game.. Very disappointed with that. ### 3/5 — Loosen the restrictions *2022-06-16* Please make some of the maps and equipment accessible without gameclub ### 4/5 — A serious problem *2022-04-09, version 2.4.38* I would like to start off with saying that this is an amazing game. It is extremely detailed and realistic and the squad mechanic are amazing. The only problem is that why would you pay $4:99 for one game. I understand that the company needs money, but you should seriously think of adding an option that is for a purchase of one game only. It is much better than $4:99 for everything if you aren’t going to play them. Please consider this. ### 2/5 — Used to be Great *2022-03-21, version 2.4.38* I remember playing this game all the time and I would always have a blast. I appreciate the thrilling but technical nature of the game. It was even better cause it was free!… until now that is. I thought about this game the other day and wanted to re-download it. Needless to say, it’s turned into another “pay-to-play” game which is sad because it was great free, so why does it now have to cost money? Oh well, just thought I’d give a fair warning. You literally cannot do any missions or training without their “subscription” which is bogus. ### 4/5 — Sub for some missions? And equipment? *2021-12-10* If only the“subscription”was only for maybe 2-5 mission that are exclusive to maybe being able to call are support or it’s an outside mission. Please let players play more missions then just one. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Seems like a scam *2024-06-02* Forces you to buy a subscription to start a mission and won’t even let you move past the subscription page. ### 1/5 — Pathetic *2024-05-21* Imagine ruining an amazing game by locking literally every single aspect of it behind a subscription pay wall. Your corporation is spineless. ### 1/5 — MAKE IT GOD DAM FREE *2023-07-03* I am not paying for a game I play 5 min a day ### 1/5 — Good game but giant flaw *2023-04-05* If your a no good money burning bond trader this is your game but I’m not gonna play the same scenario over and over again. ### 1/5 — I’m already annoyed *2023-01-05, version 2.4.38* So I just tried to play it and tried to do the tutorial to learn the game and couldn’t even finish the mission because the view adjusting portion must have been bugged or something. No matter how perfectly I lined it up or how many times I tried, it would just tell me it wasn’t lined up and it would never let me past it. I decided to just forget the tutorial after getting annoyed at it so I just went to do a mission and was going to learn along the way. Jokes on me! This “free to play” game is really just free to download. It won’t let me even start a level without a subscription. So overall, it’s too buggy to even finish a tutorial and is straight up lying when it says it’s free to play. Couldn’t have given a worse first impression devs. Beyond disappointed. ### 1/5 — I can’t play it *2022-12-01* I don’t want to pay a subscription this game has so much potential but it’s closed off maybe if you add cosmetics in the game it would be a lot better instead of just making it available to people who want to pay cash ### 1/5 — Good game *2022-10-31* The gameplay is good but why do I have to subscribe to play that just sad I was so happy when I first seen it ### 1/5 — Great Game, Just Horrendous Policies *2022-08-26, version 2.4.38* First Of All, The Game Is A Great Game In Its own Right. However, the Fact That Every Single Mission Besides From A Cramped, small Building is Locked Is Just… Why. I would be fine If A Single Mission, And Maybe An Exclusive Squad And Squad-Oriented Equipment was Part Of the Subscription, Such As South Africa and Maybe the Polish Special Forces. But Every Mission, Almost Every Weapon Is locked, As Only 36 Stars are All you will get without said Subscription. Also, The Best Attachments Are Locked, Such As Almost All Muzzle Attachments, And The Best Grips. Stacking On this, essentially All Patches You Could get Within The time you Play without the subscription Are locked behind Said Subscription. Overall, I would Give The Game 5 Stars If Much less Content Was Locked, And the Subscription Acted As More Of A Optional Expansion. Thank you for your time, and enjoy the game while you can. ### 1/5 — Great game (from what I can see, anyways) *2022-07-08, version 2.4.38* I love this game. Breach and clear allows you to tactically wipe room after room of hostiles cleanly and proficiently with custom loadouts and all that. However, you are only able to play 1 level due to Gameclub putting the entirety of the game behind a paywall. Normally, I'd totally pay 5 bucks (or whatever price is offered) to play this amazing game to it's fullest extent and purchase whatever DLCs are available. However, it's not 5 bucks. It's 5 bucks a month. To have a subscription to a gaming service, with no option to specifically buy this game. Yes, you have to pay a SUBSCRIPTION to play a bunch of... mobile games. Really? I bet the majority of people who even know Gameclub exists is through this game. Nobody wants the other 99 or whatever games. Just this one. I'll go back to playing Door Kickers. Thanks. ### 1/5 — What even happened to this game *2021-12-24* I loved this game back in the day, even payed full price but now you need a subscription for this game. When I redownloaded it because I was feeling nostalgic it told me I owned the game so I could still play for free but when I tried it won’t let me unless I subscribe. What’s the point of saying if you’ve purchased this game in the pass you don’t have to pay, only to then ask that I pay and won’t let me play. What a joke this game and company have become. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — the greatest military games on mobile devices *2024-07-17* I have been playing this game for several years and should be one of the earliest players. Although this game is very niche, I have played many games and deleted many of them. But this game has never been deleted on my device. It has pioneered a unique gameplay, which I have always believed to be the best military tactical game on mobile devices, without a doubt. Although it is not the most mainstream game genre, only true military fans understand the essence of this game. The team that developed this game is very impressive. They are not only professional and have a pioneering spirit, but also truly love military. One of the greatest military games on mobile devices, I sincerely hope that this series can continue. ### 5/5 — Epic *2023-09-14* The game is epic but need more up dates like Floors in a bulding brake throug wall and zip Lines and up dates and ect ### 5/5 — Top notch turn based tactical shooter *2022-02-20, version 2.4.38* Breach & Clear is a very clever and fun turned based tactical shooter. You have control over an elite squad of 4 soldiers. As you progress through the game Your soldiers skills can be improved and you can upgrade and outfit your men with the latest and greatest of real life weapons and tools to help your squad better accomplish missions. If you like tactical turn based games you will not be disappointed. ### 5/5 — Some things to add *2021-11-20, version 2.4.38* First off, this is an absolutely amazing game. Tactics, weaponry, armor, functionality, everything. Immersive campaigns across the world and everything! I’d just love to see this game evolve since I play it so often. Perhaps more base style weapons, such as smgs and more shotguns, even more standard rifles, optional sidearms, more grenades, and of course more challenges and maps. You guys have done amazing, keep it up and let’s see some more of what you got! -Jake ### 5/5 — This is incredible but please do something about this *2021-09-06, version 2.4.38* This game feels so realistic in my opinion and so amazing but here’s one thing, you need to pay to move on to other levels and play different countries, it gets really annoying and if this company sees this, please do something about it, I know you guys want money but the payment and level access gets really annoying so please, fix it ### 5/5 — Optional Purchase *2021-07-12, version 2.4.38* I love that the games are being brought back, but I feel it’s evil you do so just to force subscriptions. The account I used to have this on is long gone and I don’t feel like paying monthly for my fav iPhone game of all time... it would rack up to a ridiculous price tag considering I want one game. So there should be an option to purchase only the title you are playing if desired. ### 5/5 — It’s wonderful! Just some suggestions *2021-05-29, version 2.4.38* I love the game and the premise of it. Hands down one of the most addictive games I’ve ever played and one of the best strategic military games I’ve played. I just have some suggestions to better the game. Such as adding more agencies such as the French GIGN, FBI HRT, or GSG9. And this is more of a realism thing using a countries firearms like German G36s or H&K 416. It just feels weird using the KSK with a M4. Other than that I’ve yet to have a problem. Love it! Keep up the work! ### 5/5 — Whats this? *2020-12-14* What this game I got suggested by a friend and you pay to play more please tell me more about this Game please! **Developer response:** Breach & Clear is totally free to try with no need to sign up — email entry is 100% skippable. No subscription is necessary to try out the game. It's part of a larger game subscription service called GameClub — all-you-can-play access to a large library of curated games (including Breach & Clear), with hundreds of hours of gameplay within the subscription. Though full access is only included with a subscription, we're committed to letting everyone "try before you buy" — to play enough to get a sense of the game free of charge. We also offer a free trial (that you can cancel at any time) so you can play as many of the games in our library as much as you want before spending any money. Thanks for playing, and hope you take a look at our other titles to give them a try! ### 5/5 — Add more in the game *2020-05-31, version 2.4.11* I’ll say it okay the game “breach and clear.” Paying it makes it fun with different maps. The only problem that I want to add this game is more accessories for gears and attachments for your character, guessing adding night vision goggles attachments for your helmets so that the enemy would have difficult to see, upset without a silencer attachments the enemy could see the firepower in rooms and hallways but might be having difficult to know where the shots comes from. There two options, kill the lights inside the building or just like usuals breach. It would be cool if you add hostage rescue in a big building, even add two squad groups if there ever was a big building. Anyways great game ### 5/5 — Incredible game, horrible company policy *2020-04-27, version 2.4.8* I’ve only recently downloaded this game, and have only been able to play the first level between the three modes and all difficulties several times over, but I can surely tell you that this game is genuinely one of the most detailed tactical and strategic experiences in a game I have had. From movement of soldiers and abilities to weapons attachments and setting up your fields of fire, this game makes most “tactical” shooters look quite bad in my opinion, and this is all in a mobile game. All this being said, it is currently owned by GameClub, which consequently requires you to subscribe to their entire service for $4.99 a month, which most people are saying is actually $1 more than originally priced. I’m sure that some people would really not mind having new games and all that every month, but I’m only interested in this ONE, and I’d honestly gladly pay $8 one time for this game and play it ferverously and recommend it to friends which consequently would get the devs more money, but why only get $8 from someone one time when you can get $60 from them in a year for a MOBILE GAME SERVICE. Genuinely good game, horrible policies. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
