### 1/5 — No ADS gekauft - trotzdem komplette Werbung !

*2025-08-23*

Trotz no ADS Kauf bleibt die unerträgliche Werbung ohne Veränderung vorhanden. Betrug.

### 3/5 — Glitch with In-App Purchase

*2024-03-04*

The game glitched and doesn’t disable ads after the purchase. Please fix.

### 1/5 — Слишком много рекламы

*2023-11-15, version 2.7*

Жадные разработчики, кривая игра лагает просто ужас, и рекламы вагон, за пять минут игры 5 роликов с рекламой глянул, первый раз такое вижу. Просто симулятор просмотра рекламы

### 4/5 — Как открыть персонажа и уровни?

*2023-04-07, version 2.7*

Игра

### 5/5 — It’s a great game with a cool story and design

*2023-03-16*

It’s like resident evil 1 and 4 combined. They sound kinda weird but I don’t mind.

### 3/5 — Glitch with In-App Purchase

*2023-02-06*

So, I bought the full package. The one with infinite ammo, infinite health and no ads. I got the infinite ammo and health but ads still showed up so I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game then restoring my purchase to see if that would fix the glitch and it won’t restore my purchase!! So, when I noticed the ads were still showing but before I deleted the game to reinstall it, I went into the shop to see if the game glitched and just bought the infinite ammo and health pack because there is one that doesn’t remove ads. Well, in the store, it showed that I had bought the one that gives me all three but the crazy thing is that the shop had glitched and spammed the store with that purchase! It showed that offer 3-5 times and each one had a different asking price! I remember there were at least 3 because one said it was $3.99, one was $4.99 and one was $5.99! All of them said they had been purchased! That’s when I uninstalled reinstalled the game. Like I said, the game didn’t restore the purchase but it was only $2.99 so I decided to make the purchase again. This time it was $5.99 which is the price I thought it was when I had originally decided to make the purchase. Well, the purchase gave me the infinite health and ammo but I’m still getting ads! In short, you need to figure out what happened with my first purchase and fix that so it doesn’t happen to other people, you need to fix the in-app purchase restore function and you need to remove the ads on my account.

### 4/5 — Good game, but a problem, ads still showing after being removed.

*2022-12-02*

This is a great zombie killing game, but I just purchased the No ads in-app and paid for the ads to be removed, they’re not supposed to still show up. Fix this now.

### 3/5 — Malo

*2022-09-24, version 2.7*

1.- YO YA COMPRÉ PARA NO TENER ANUNCIOS Y LA APP ME MUESTRA ANUNCIOS, LOS CUALES A PARTE SON MUY INTRUSIVOS.

2.- ANTES ERA OFFLINE Y AHORA NECESITO ESTAR CONECTADO A INTERNET PARA PODER JUGAR UN JUEGO QUE NO TIENE MULTIJUADOR Y SE JUEGA SIEMPRE EN SOLITARIO!?

3.- AÑOS Y AÚN NO HACEN JUGABLES A LOS OTROS PERSONAJES NI A LOS ESCENARIOS.

YA NO LO RECOMIENDO

### 3/5 — もったいない

*2022-09-13, version 2.7*

ゲームはとても楽しいです、あと続きがなぜか出てないのと、武器を変えるのにいちいち1周しなきゃいけないのが嫌ですね、なんかこのゲームほっとかれてる感じもあるので続きが出た時にはもう少しグラフィック良くしてくださいね

### 3/5 — This game desperately needs first person

*2022-08-13*

This game is pretty good but you see I’m playing on mobile and I’m playing on Apple so all I’m asking is hey actually I’m really getting design to and I can try and make your game better I can do some of the voice acting and I can do what you want me to do and I know better designs for the zombies I know how to I know how to do art and I know how to make heads explode in the game all I’m asking is can I be in the business of designing your game
