### 3/5 — Crit dammage multiplier changed and game sadly unplayable was my favorite, not anymore

*2026-04-01, version 2.9.0*

I absolutly loved this game spending hours upon hours playing and one day it updated and crit dammage multiplier for weapons like the bazooka was removed and it took me 3 hours to get back to the level I was at and I couldn’t progress any further I loved this game but sadly it’s unplayable anymore pre update this game had a 5 star for me but now it’s just unplayable I’ll give it a 3 just because of how awesome it was until it changed

### 5/5 — ONE OF THE BEST INCREMENTALS

*2026-02-09*

one of the best incremental games of all time on phones, hope the developer keeps cooking stuff for a long time

### 5/5 — Ótimo jogo

*2026-02-08*

Adorei o jogo e adorei essa nova atualização jogo muito bom dou 1 milhão de estrelas se desse pra dar eu daria pelo amor de Deus joguem esse jogo

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-02-08, version 2.8.0*

I’ve been playing this game on and off again for who knows how long but I remember ages ago when amity either didn’t have a use or just straight up not exist at all. But I’ve been playing it again recently because it’s the perfect idle game where the amount of general progress you make is directly tied to how much you grind and not only that but the game enables you to play for 30 minutes max and still make decent tangible progress but overall it’s the perfect grinding game that never makes me feel like I need to spend any money on micro transactions just to make some progress

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-02-08, version 2.8.0*

Great game so fun to progress and unlocking new weapons + characters or upgrading characters feels so rewarding brought two game passes keep up the good work🙏

### 3/5 — Lowkey a W

*2026-01-13, version 2.7.1*

This game has a beautiful look to it, with perfect music and fun gameplay! Before downloading, I thought it would be repetitive and grindy, but the game is varied and fun with its different game modes. it is a hidden gem of a game

### 5/5 — Um dos melhores idles

*2025-12-29*

Seguindo guias e jogando pelo Discord se torna uma experiência incrível.

### 4/5 — Game review

*2025-12-19, version 2.6.6*

I had this game for a while but after one of the updates for the crit damage, i forgot when it was but i haven’t been able to progress any further because it downed my crit damage quite a lot, can you put back the old damage, thats the only issue i have on this game, but other than that, this is truly an amazing game

### 4/5 — Game review

*2025-12-17, version 2.6.6*

I had this game for a while but after one of the updates for the crit damage, i forgot when it was but i haven’t been able to progress any further because it downed my crit damage quite a lot, can you put back the old damage, thats the only issue i have on this game, but other than that, this is truly an amazing game

### 5/5 — Would recommend

*2025-12-04, version 2.6.6*

Super addictive and fun to play.

### 5/5 — play this 10/100

*2025-11-29, version 2.6.6*

best mobile game i been addicted to this for idek like 2 weeks lol so fun must play trust

### 2/5 — Good game, bad customer service

*2025-11-24, version 2.6.6*

Love this game, very addictive and fun but I bought the AFK Assist pack and I was charged but I never received it in game. Emailed the devs twice and no response.

### 5/5 — Worth the install!

*2025-09-29, version 2.6.0*

Really good and provides lots of ways to grind and earn. Consistently having a good time when I get on 9/10. Psa- without WiFi can still be very much enjoyed and doesn’t force ads on you.

### 5/5 — Игра вот классно но можете добавить обновление

*2025-09-26*

Обновление с аватарами

### 3/5 — Цена игры 1100 руб

*2025-09-16*

Для того чтобы стала игра idle, необходимо 700 руб. Удаление всей рекламы 400 (что плюс)

Я дошел до 15 дня кампании и не могу сказать, что она плохая. Просто чтобы не приходилось в боях самому целится и атаковать нужна покупка. Да в игре есть помогающие герои, но они лишь помогают пройти уровень.
На 15м открывается данжен, он бесконечный, «весело» самому всех убивать. Да и миссии запускать я так понимаю все равно придется самому.

Итог: мне интересно пройти было бы дальше, но не готов тратить столько на мобильную игру.

### 5/5 — I’m Sad 😭

*2025-08-27, version 2.5.1*

I wonted to play it and I did on my tablet with my google account but I can’t on IOS so it’s really not fun for me to restart.
But on the bright side I got a legendary so that’s fun 🤩
Another thing I love playing this you should play it to!
Tell me how make days you get without paying to win

### 1/5 — Bought all 3 autos.

*2026-08-01, version 2.9.2*

2x speed auto attack and no ads. The auto continue doesn’t auto double the coins so I’m not benefiting from the no ads purchase please fix and credit my account the lost money due to it.

### 1/5 — Depois de anos jogando, reformulei o review…

*2026-06-16*

P2W. Sem pelo menos o pack afk vai ser insuportável de jogar depois de um tempo… recomendavel ter todos os packs e qlqr duvida é só olharem no discord do jogo

### 1/5 — Update

*2026-02-07, version 2.7.1*

Не могу играть, потому что нужно обновление, а обновление нету!! Дермище.

### 1/5 — Fix weapon rolls

*2025-11-01, version 2.6.4*

Weapon rolls are awful

### 1/5 — Статы обнуляются

*2025-04-25*

Поиграл день, на второй день статы которые качал слетели, затраченное золото вернулось около 20-25%. Показано что дошёл до 51 уровня при этом началось по новому. БРЕД какой-то!!!

### 1/5 — This message is for daysbygone

*2024-07-16, version 2.1.0*

Dear days bygone,this new update is really bad and really slow i choose no idle but keep the crafting table please. But please remove idle because when i rewind i put it on idle and after two hours it only progressed 200 days and im at days 1645 so please change it.

### 1/5 — Uninstall

*2024-06-11, version 2.0.1*

Don’t spend any money they can delete your account after a certain time not playing the game. The support is useless so good luck trying to get help the dmv is much faster. The big thing if you watch an ad there a chance to not get rewards. The biggest thing they can ban you for whatever reason and they don’t need to explain at all. 

Update : with 9 emails in the past 2 years almost 3 years no response at all even tried the discord with no luck

### 1/5 — Проблема со входом в аккаунт

*2023-01-09*

При входе пишет «произошла ошибка при попытке аутентификации»
Из-за этого потерял весь прогресс и желание играть все об аккаунте помню вплоть до персонажей и их уровней но восстановить не могу

### 1/5 — Дерьмище

*2022-12-07, version 1.30.0*

ВНАЧАЛЕ ТОП ИГРА А ПОТОМ ПРОСТО ДОНАТ ПОМОЙКА , ПОСЛЕ 52 дня не пройти

### 1/5 — Good game bad support

*2022-06-30, version 1.26.2*

I put like 40 hrs into the game before buying passes to help progress faster. I ended up playing two month basically everyday with a minimum of 10 hrs which 90% was afk. I would switch between devices to watch movies but then one day I got a temporary ban with no timeline or anything in that nature. Went into their discord to see if I can get help I message the person in charge but nothing. Then I tried the email and nothing so I tried for a few months sadly nothing. When that happen and had no access I checked Reddit and discord many people said good luck but the support is bad try a different game. For anyone trying this game don’t spend much time or money try a game with actual support.

Days Bygone: Castle Defense is an amazing addictive game because it has endless possibilities!
This is the game if you want to play it if you’re outside or anywhere. I’ve also enjoyed the content of the game and the new up dates that came from time to time.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-02-24, version 2.8.0*

I play it on road trips, when I get early to school, just any time I have downtime but not enough to get on my pc. Its satisfying and the build crafting is fun.
