### 2/5 — Becomes impossible

*2020-10-07*

Great game at first but too many advertisements. I enjoyed it enough to go ad free, but shortly thereafter it just becomes ridiculous. You start with four and six or more opponents start with 250 each, and they all run right at you even if it is suicide for them. There are some tricks to using the mines and running towards other armies while being chased, but it entirely gets to a point of no winning unless you are lucky enough to build up an army big enough to get the others to stop chasing you fast enough.

### 3/5 — A game to pass time

*2020-09-15*

The only issue I have is that you don’t have that much control on the direction you move. If a little D pad can be updated into the game that could fix the direction control and field of view since your thumb or finger wouldn’t be in the way of keeping an eye out for other players off screen.

### 4/5 — AI targets you

*2020-09-12*

I’m on level 15 and the AI goes after me at the very start and once I collect house they just claim those houses where I don’t have enough time to get one guy before the other AI takes it. And it’s non stop targeting. So voodoo please fix your AI it could be a very good game if you change some differences like make the AI not target you as much, get some unlockable characters, and maybe better graphics but the graphics are fine but you could make them a little better.

### 1/5 — Completely broken game, spams ads

*2020-09-07*

The concept of the game is great and could be really fun. But like most reviews say the ai will lock on to you and hunt you down on top of the fact that the ai players are leveled up higher than you. They will not hunt each other down anywhere near as aggressively as they’ll hunt you, and they’ll blatantly team up to take you down. This is completely game breaking as the game can’t be played fairly as if each team were an actual player.

Also there are SO MANY ADS, the app is just clickbait for ads, the game itself is broken completely

### 1/5 — Pretty Obnoxious

*2020-09-06*

Do not download this game.  If they make some fixes then I'll change my mind but the AI is awful.  First of all, every round you start off at a massive disadvantage (you have like 30% of the amount of people each AI has) and second, once they Target you there's no escape.  You can occasionally get out of it if you're lucky and you run them into obstacles/other big AIs but then the other AI will just follow you. If they fix these things I'll change my review.

### 4/5 — It’s challenging and I like that!

*2020-09-06*

I know a lot of people are complaining that the AI chases you down; I have definitely had a few annoying rounds like that. However, that’s when I developed a strategy and the game started getting a little more fun. 

In the game, there are arrows around your screen, showing you the general direction of where the other teams are and the number of units in their crowd. I use this to avoid other crowds while I collect more units, unless I can see that that I have more units than another team, in that case I will chase them down and eliminate them. If I do, however, happen to run into run into a bigger crowd AI that locks onto me I will either run towards another crowd that is as big as them to deter them, or I will continuously run their crowd through the spike balls that are found throughout the various maps. 

I hope my review will help some of these other reviewers who are struggling to enjoy the game, because it can be fun. 4 stars because ads tho. Hate those, but I know everybody gotta make their money somehow so it’s whatevs. 

Namaste.

### 1/5 — Awful AI

*2020-08-25*

This is the worst AI I have ever seen!!!!! It makes me want to throw my phone at the wall.  If you come within 1000 yards of an enemy bigger than you I will hunt you down till your dead, and It will kill you. What’s even worse Is the AI for people is smaller than you. You might as well be in the receiving end of a Japanese attack because I swear there are hoards of mind less bots all ganging up on you to ensure they either take every tower you take no matter how dumb the move is or they will kamikaze into you till the point you have 5 people left. This AI is so unbearable I had to uninstall this game would be amazing if they took the time to make an AI over the IQ of 2.

### 1/5 — Hope you like ads

*2020-08-17*

They make this game almost impossible to win, every other “team” o start out with is nearly double what I start with and their houses produce units nearly instantly. I can tell I’m playing against robots because they go for me instead of obviously better plays and when they kill me they stay in one place almost to gloat. They make it impossible for you to win so that you have to watch ads because that’s how they make money. I wish I could give them 0 stars

### 2/5 — Needs some work

*2020-08-16*

Really is a truly fun game, but definitely needs some work. The chase algorithm needs some work, I don’t think any human would chase another player around as long as these AI do. It ruins the game for the player, you can’t win if an opponent decides to dedicate the rest of the game to chasing you and ruining your game. Also the game crashes and lags up A LOT! Gets an additional star under the minimum because admittedly, it is super fun.

### 1/5 — How does Apple allow this

*2020-08-07*

I’m seriously confused how this even gets into the App Store. Extreme low quality game, ridiculously filled with ads, and gameplay literally doesn’t even work. Game is unplayable ..??  All the AIs target the entire game, and they will commit suicide just to kill you. That’s not a game lol it’s just a pause between ads. Not sure how Apple allows such trash on their AppStore. Also, if you actually want to attempt to play this trash, TURN ON AIRPLANE MODE, at least you can die over and over without seeing ads.
