Ad Skip Purchase Broken

I paid for no ads but it still shows them. Garbage.

Ad central

this game even starts off with an ad…. I deleted it right away.

It’s alright.

This app has five in-game currencies, which is a HUGE red flag for me: coins to buy upgrades, gems to buy chests and turn energy, medals for combinations of rewards, keys to collect for other chests, and “pieces” to unlock airplanes and assist drones.

Every major upgrade for each plane and drone costs 45-100+ pieces. They can’t be bought with coins, they can’t be exchanged, and you have to collect them again and again to unlock the next tier of levels.

As a shooter, it has some good things.
The graphics are bright, simple, and fun.

I was excited to mix and match different pieces, try different planes, and get through maps at multiple difficulties.

I played for a week and quit when I realized I’d be collecting thousands of the same parts over and over. It’s like having to catch the same Pokémon every time you want to level them up.
