### 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.

### 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.

### 3/5 — Good game but cropped on iPad Pro …

*2023-03-15*

The sides are cropped and I am missing a lot of info.

### 3/5 — Fun but needs some updates

*2019-11-04, version 1.0.90*

It’s fun but some things need to be updated like the stile

### 5/5 — Everything you would wish for in a RPG

*2019-09-04*

This is one of my favorite video games of all time! I got this game thinking that this would be an ok game, but when I got used to the smooth management of my money as well as the satisfying rpg gameplay, I was blown away. Thanks Behold Studios and Bandai Namco. I really hope you make a sequel!

### 3/5 — Update please!

*2019-05-24, version 1.0.90*

Update for IPhone X please! Great game that deserves modern support! Hope to see improvement soon and it will be 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Great game 5 star

*2019-04-28, version 1.0.90*

This game has a great plot, but it ends too soon

### 4/5 — 3 suggestions

*2019-04-07, version 1.0.90*

DLC: Some sort of story that follows the OG events, do we have to be the same team, probably not, but it would add some extra things to do.

Sequel: If you do not want a DLC, there’s always a full blown sequel, I like the idea of 5 new stunt actors being hired by the OG stunt actors to carry on the Legacy!

Episode Make: This could be a DLC! The idea is that you can make your own episode to do, thus giving the game some extra zest!

I hope that any one of these is picked, I really really hope so. P.S. Lights, Camera, Chromatize!

### 5/5 — Surprised, very fun, totally recommend

*2019-03-13*

This game has quite a lot of features to consider when creating your hero squad. Very tongue in cheek, you don't have to be a Power Rangers fan to like it. 
Very replayable, not easy. 
I wish we could just skip the tutorial instead of having to play through it. 
**update after playthrough**
(They know that we want to skip tutorial, game is so self aware, watch past the credits)
So fun and cute, i have 29 hours on my first play through and will still play through again, as there are lots of challenging elements and alternative endings available. I don't care about power rangers, but am shocked at how good this is. I love this game great job. 
>>If you are on the fence come down on my side and buy it!<<

### 5/5 — Incrível

*2019-03-04*

Me viciei nesse jogo possui gráficos bons e ótima jogabilidade!
Queria ter mais jogos como esse

### 3/5 — A great little title, but kinda boring...

*2019-02-25, version 1.0.90*

I remember seeing Chroma Squad on steam many moons ago. I got it in a bundle and played probably an hour before my computer bit the dust. It was a cool game. Light strategy, equipment, classes, abilities, teamwork. I liked the idea.

When I heard it came to IOS, I had to get it to finally play it through, since the teaser on Steam gave me an itch that needed scratching. A couple weeks of intermittent play later and I finished my first play through. Honestly, *yawn*.... it’s a pretty slow and monotonous game. The first ‘season’ is good since it introduces all the aspects for you to play around with. Enemies, bosses, equipment, crafting, abilities, team work, mecha battles, directors instructions. It was a great lineup. But it never took off. 

The equipment is unique but there isn’t enough variety to build a good character. New equipment comes with new seasons, but it’s such a higher tier that all the old equipment becomes obsolete.

They bring out one new minion type every season and maybe rehash an old minion type from time to time.

The mecha battles are slow and boring and they happen every fricken battle. There’s no variety or excitement or strategy. I just mash buttons until I can finally be done with it.

There are two types of battles: beat the boss and survive X rounds. That was it. You’d think there would be more for there being 1-3 stages for about 25-30 battles, but nope. That’s it. No freeing hostages, or fighting to a goal, or escaping the room, or breaking barriers, or protecting a civilian, or multi-component bosses, or unique effects/scenarios. Every battle was a slog to use 5 people to defeat 15 enemies and one boss.

The story was certainly interesting, but I strangely got lost. It’s a tv show, but it’s real, but it’s still a tv show. And people only know about the tv show, but people also know it’s real, but it’s all a tv show. Is it a tv show? Is it real? I just don’t know. I think more decision in the plot would have been nice. The one decision I had was really refreshing.

Anyways, it’s a cool game. I like strategy RPG games and the abilities are well done. I wish I had a reason to replay it like new weapons or new heroes or new game + or something, because I’d like to see more. But the problem with this game is that there just isn’t more. Once you’ve played the first season out of 5... you’ve played it all...

### 3/5 — More

*2019-01-08, version 1.0.90*

We should be able to fire and hire new actors. Fire and hire crew members. Have 6 rangers and also choose how the main base looks like. And longer seasons and episodes. And one more thing more plot twist like one of the rangers turns evil and we get them back.

### 3/5 — Good, but under-age rated content

*2019-01-07*

I am a really big power rangers fan from the heart, I am not as interested in it as much as I used to be but still. I actually made a review about this game where I basically destroyed it, but I realize this game was quite good. I love rpgs, and this no slacker in that department. And for Power Rangers, this game has an amazing story that you choose, with multiple endings. I also love the fact that the Megazords or ‘Mechas’ are incorporated into this game too! Overall this game is quite spectacular. 
But, there is some content that is not for younger players, like some mature dialogue and a bikini fish monster. There might a few other things too, but still. 
Once you overlook the bad things, this game is awesome! I love the music, and even the Chroma Squad’s theme song! I actually even made a video of my Power Rangers fighting a boxing box, literally! 
I would recommend this game to kids who are at least 12 and up, and if you are, get ready to have a blast!

### 4/5 — Excellent strategy game with a lot of charm!

*2018-10-07*

This game is excellent in it’s own right, with an exciting, catchy soundtrack that fits perfectly with the even better story. This game is fun, quirky, and self-aware in all the right places, and delivers a heartwarming story, despite it’s goofy nature of actors flipping around in spandex suits fighting monsters like traffic wizards and bird people.

That being said, the only downside one might find with this game is the necessity of near-perfection on it’s higher difficulty. If you enjoy lots of trial and error in simply choosing your characters for your squad (something you have to restart the entire game to change, by the way), then the hard difficulty is up your alley.

All in all, this is an excellent game for both sides of gamers. It can be played on easy and delivers an excellent story and allows new players to get a feel for turn based strategy games if they aren’t familiar with them, and offers an exceptionally difficult mode of the game where every turn could quite literally cost you the entire level if you misstep, and the medium difficulty for those who want a taste of both. It’s by no means perfect (as there are a few small bugs, I mainly noticed the occasional screen flash of certain sprites up close, but this doesn’t really hamper the gameplay). Definitely check this one out.

### 5/5 — Your game is amazing and make a number 2

*2018-08-31, version 1.0.90*

### 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!

### 1/5 — Luta bugada

*2017-12-10*

A luta do robo nao esta dando audiência isso ta ferrando o meu jogo

### 1/5 — Bad

*2017-07-05, version 1.0.86*

It keeps freezing up on me and I have to start over the game and deleting all my progress

### 1/5 — Great idea but confusing gameplay

*2017-05-27, version 1.0.86*

The teamwork/special move stuff is really confusing. I want a game that's intuitive and challenging once you learn the basics. Sure I didn't go through the rediculously long tutorial, so maybe it's my fault, but it shouldn't be this hard to figure out. This is less of a game and more just work

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2017-05-22*

I wish I could have a refund. The 5 star reviews are clearly fake. Don't waste £5 on this like I did

### 1/5 — CRASH PERMANANT SUR IPAD MINI 1

*2017-05-19, version 1.0.85*

Je possède un iPad mini 1 avec iOS 9 et il faut seulement iOS 7 pour et on ne dit pas que mon iPad ne peut pas supporter le jeu j'ai essayé de le désinstaller et le réinstaller mais ça ne change rien s'il vous plaît faites une mise à jour !!!!!!!!!!

### 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.

### 2/5 — Display update

*2020-02-19, version 1.0.90*

This game needs an update for iPhone X and newer screens.

### 2/5 — Fun but bonus objectives can be wack

*2019-10-21*

Like I said the game is pretty enjoyable, especially for its price. The only complaint I have (and its a big one) is how often you can get extremely with the bonus objectives. A lot of the missions have multiple battles in the same mission, and if your party dies or you want to restart because of a failed bonus objective, you have to start from the beginning of that mission and redo all of the battles (they can be tedious). That isn’t such a huge deal if it was completely reliant on skill, but it isn’t always. For example, on the 3rd fight of a mission it wants you to kill 4 enemies in a single turn. AOE attacks are in short supply at this point, so you basically have to one shot them individually. Well, most of your party has to use a long cool down ability to do that, and if it misses you can kiss that bonus objective goodbye, or redo the mission and the tedious drawn out fights that happened before the one you failed. That’s one example but not the only one, and if you play it I’m sure you’ll see what I mean.

### 2/5 — This game does not support the display of any phone after the 8plus, please add support

*2019-04-11*

Does not fit the screen on my iPhone XR

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-06-06*

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

### 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.

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2023-04-23, version 1.24*

I missed this game the first time around now that it’s back I love it definitely would recommend this

### 5/5 — ITS BACK :D

*2023-04-11, version 1.24*

Can’t wait to play it again

### 5/5 — Double Awesome!

*2021-02-06*

Best power rangers game ever!  Really fantastic the idea of ​​being just a recording studio.  I'm a big fan of super sentai so I had a lot of fun with this game (I have already beaten the game 2 times and I'm already starting the third adventure).  But a specific bug bothered me a little.  Movement squares sometimes appear even after the character moves.  I have no idea how it happens, but it's there and after a while your eyes start to get tired of so much blue / purple square on the screen.  The last update was 2 years ago, please try to fix it!

### 5/5 — Queria mais

*2021-01-01*

Quando eu zerei o jogo perdi minha conta e quis baixar de novo e mandar pros meus amigos jogarem esse jogo top
