### 5/5 — Pretty dang good!

*2023-08-06*

I just purchased this game and it’s very good! Very similar to Zombie Objective, which was one of my all-time favorite games. I highly suggest you try it!
P.S. if KBS reads this, please update Zombie Objective to the newest iOS, I miss that game very much.

### 5/5 — Epic

*2020-08-27, version 1.0.1*

I wish zombie objective was updated tho

### 2/5 — DEVELOPERS PLEASE READ

*2019-07-28*

This game could be 10x better with an easy fix: making the weapons free. You should get all the weapons that you unlock as you level up. I wouldn’t mind paying except the weapons are sooo expensive and you can’t complete new missions without them. The only way to play is pay money basically :/
