### 4/5 — New game plus has BUGS

*2026-07-29*

for some reason if I get the sheriffs on new game plus or any higher difficulty the sheriffs won’t scale. They don’t get bigger damage idk if that’s design but I’m pretty sure your supposed to give us a balanced option if that was the developers decision. Also I can’t recycle my materials anymore it’s completely frozen.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-06-06*

Anything that makes me play as a Power Ranger I will love!

### 2/5 — Jeu Buggé

*2026-01-08*

Quel dommage. Semble sympa, malheureusement gros bug : quand on veut acheter notre équipement, la partie indiquant les scores des armes est hors de l’écran : impossible de s’équiper à l’aveugle. Des fois c’est la partie droite qui sort, d’autres fois c’est la gauche qui rentre pas dans l’écran ….
Et impossible de sélectionner les personnages.
Aucun support : page introuvable.
Je vais demander un remboursement.

### 5/5 — Game so fun I bought it twice!

*2025-06-23, version 1.24*

I own this on this switch & liked it so much I bought it on my phone

### 5/5 — No crashes on level 2…

*2024-02-11*

The game crashed out twice in under an hour of gameplay, but I think things are fixed.  I don’t have any other apps crashing so hopefully it’s just the robust awesomeness of the game on my soon to be leaving iPhone 13…. Love the style and atmosphere.  A+

### 5/5 — Great🤭

*2024-01-26*

I really do love the game and everything about it is truly amazing and fun, however, I do wish that the sixth hero would be added to the original lineup as like a story plot that we could do and after you complete the game you get to keep them.
Also, I hope that they able to be added to the robot as like a sixth piece. That way it looks like they’re connected on the sideline.

* It would be cool to add more villains and robot combinations and monsters and soldiers😂

### 5/5 — Update pls

*2023-11-24*

I love the game and everything about it, but I wish that you would add more seasons and allow us to add more heroes at least one more like a six member that's permanent to the team😭 but I love this game so much

### 5/5 — Love these guys

*2023-08-02, version 1.24*

You guys have made an amazing game. Come back every couple of months to start new game and dive into my chroma squad series. Appreciate you guys.

### 1/5 — Resolution not the right size

*2023-05-23, version 1.24*

Just bought the game may 23, 2023 and the game resolution does not fit to my iPad! Cannot see stats for characters they run off screen in the shops! Developers say they updated for this issue but I still have it somehow!

### 4/5 — Fabulous Game

*2023-04-28*

A nice little tongue and cheek Sentai strategy RPG also Grimmgarl, Tornaq, and Muligahn from Colossal Kaiju Combat was a genuinely pleasant surprise. It had cute references to and jokes with pretty stellar mechanics (though I could never get the hang of a mecha fight but that’s a skill issue) I only have one issue and that’s in my newer I pad I can’t play the game because it zooms in too much and cuts off a lot of the screen in the shop and stuff. Should those issues get fixed this game is a 5/5 easy.
