### 4/5 — Multiplayer

*2025-11-09, version 1.2.6*

I wish this game has multiplayer please?

### 3/5 — Dommage

*2025-08-02*

le jeux est très bien au départ puis très rapidement vous êtes bloqués sauf si vous êtes prêt à envoyé la CB ,  un Pay to win classique, ce qui n’enlève pas ses qualités mais dommage

### 4/5 — Not bad but..

*2025-03-17, version 1.2.4*

Honestly not a bad game but the roster is smaller than bug heroes 1 and 2 so that’s a shame. TD isn’t bad but I genuinely liked the original games’ format better. Not a bad game tho, cool, new towers and new enemies too and technically retains original style since you can flip the camera down and use abilities. But the core of the game is still tower defense, liked the original siege format a lot better imo but this format allows for more casual play and a lot more idle combat which requires less attention and time. But I’ve always felt that bug heroes was one of a kind and better suited for consoles that mobile because of their depth, I would LOVE to see a bug heroes 3 and instead of adding the same heroes from 2 or 1 maybe some completely brand new heroes would be nice, but retaining the original trio should be nice too. Like maybe we get a bombardier beetle, a weevil, or some other obscure bug as a character , that would be fun.

### 2/5 — Lowered to 2stars after update

*2025-03-04, version 1.2.2*

The newest version is a disaster. Now gears fly all over the place, not fun to collect and visually awkward. All these new abilities are messy and spammy, and the difficulty has been increased so they just offset if.

I had the game since the beginning and have been watching ads every day, but now i have to delete it. Why did you make the game worse after all this time? If you want people back, increase the allied bug limit to make bee fun again. (You destroyed him and the foodstash ability with that limit). And get rid of all this new clutter. I collected so many of the weekly bonuses, getting my best bug to 140 percent bonus and level 100, many other bugs not far behind. I know it is hard to undo what you for some reason thought was a good change, but this was a bad update. Keep ladybug, but my years of dedication are gone because of every other part of the update. Visually and funwise. Please consider fixing it, because old players will hate and new players won't even try to stick around. Truly sad.

### 3/5 — Two issues

*2025-02-19, version 1.2*

Minus a star for the overdone visual effects that make it impossible to tell what is happening. What could be a very complex and nuanced game is reduced to a ridiculously fast series of senseless explosions. I think there are bugs under all that nonsense…?

Minus another star for the forced tutorials that take away my agency. I installed the app because I chose to try playing the game, thank you, not to watch it play itself. I am already done because I feel like I’m not really making any choices.

### 5/5 — Banger game!

*2025-01-31, version 1.1.6*

As always this company dishes out amazing games for the iphone. I guess my only problem is that higher levels typically makes the phone go into overload. 

But other than that this is one of my favorite tower defense game out there! Not sure if there’s any PC equivalent games but this one is sooo good since you can have a hero to play

### 5/5 — Просто ТОП

*2025-01-10*

Неожиданно открыл для себя и в полном восторге! Разрабам отдельное спасибо!

### 5/5 — So CoOl

*2024-12-04, version 1.1.6*

A very well made game and a fresh take on the tower defence genre. Action packed, fast and very rewarding. Graphics 10/10, Sound Design 10/10, Effects 10/10, Game Play 10/10.

### 5/5 — Um dos melhores TD dos últimos tempos

*2024-12-03*

Gráfico, temática, dinâmica, tudo nesse jogo é massa! E foge da mesmice.

### 5/5 — Best iOS game

Block fortress…

### 1/5 — Please do bug hero’s 3

*2024-04-19, version 1.1.5*

I would rather spend 5$ on a good game instead of getting a game that wants you constantly buy money. I love bug hero’s 2 and if you make bag hero’s three I’ll pay whatever you want for it, it was a high value you game that wasn’t pay to win, it was combative and Strategic in my favorite ways. I really hope y’all make it!!!

### 1/5 — Igual jogar anúncio

*2024-01-07*

My childhood has been revived. All hail foursaken media

### 5/5 — Food stash levels

*2025-02-09, version 1.1.6*

I absolutely love the game and am trying to 100% it while I’m on light duties. I love how the airship highest level turns gold after 500 waves but I still can’t figure out how I’m supposed to level up my food stash 78 times when I only get 120 xp per game and 2-4K after 500 waves on nightmare. It just doesn’t seem right. Please add a way to level up the stash D:
