### 4/5 — Fun alternative

*2022-09-05, version 1.9.8*

Pretty decent Archero clone. Rolling is nice but I just hurt every time I do it. Weapons are cool. I put in 33 levels of time into and I’m enjoying it. 
My only issue is that I can’t purchase any gems or upgrade packs. It says product initialization failed every time. I don’t see anyone else mentioning this so maybe it’s just me.

### 1/5 — Glitch again

*2021-09-01, version 1.6.4*

After reloading the app and starting again, level 4 back to minus 27 million tokens
Please fix this issue

### 1/5 — Clearly plagiarized and copied

*2021-05-26, version 1.5.1*

It good! BUT IT IS ONLY GOOD BECAUSE ITS A RIP OFF OF ARCHERO! I though I would download it to see if it was a ripoff then when I played it it was looked almost identical even some of  the characters were the same. So I left the game and THE MENU OH THE MENU COMPLETELY THE SAME EXSEPT THE OUTFIT CHANGER. YOU SHOULD PUT CREDIT TO ARCHERO BEAVUSE YOU CLEARLY JUST USED THERE GAME

### 4/5 — Bug

*2021-01-28, version 1.4.3*

when i go into the game i can't see my coins that's been cut off but when i went to switch an app on the main screen i can see them...pls fix this. im playing on a iPhone 11

### 5/5 — Help!

*2020-11-21, version 1.1.9*

Please make more games. I love crack shooter but it’s getting boring.

### 2/5 — bug

*2020-11-02, version 1.1.9*

im ios 14 and i downloaded this game before ios 14 came out and i can't see my coins or gems their hidden up top...pls update this bug I'm having

### 5/5 — Plans?

*2020-10-12, version 1.1.9*

Any plans to add more levels, ever?  Been sitting on the final level for months.

### 3/5 — 3 stars for now.

*2020-09-24, version 1.1.9*

I really enjoy this game but my biggest problem with it is if you are playing on an iPhone 11 in both the levels and especially in the menu the bezel at the top center of the screen blocks your view of everything you can’t see how many coins you have. The joy stick to move your character glitches and makes you not able to move if your finger moves too far in one direction. Other than that this is a great game and very fun if the devs fix the bezel issue and the joy stick glitch I will change to 5 stars.

### 2/5 — Great but...

*2020-07-18, version 1.1.9*

Great game but game crashes after every ad... disappointing that you loose all items and exp due to this. Hope it gets fixed and will give a better rating once fixed

### 3/5 — Been waiting

*2020-07-02, version 1.1.9*

Add the new levels already... what’s taking so long!!
