Too many eads.   Great game though.

### 4/5 — Auto aim fps?

*2026-05-13, version 1.0.2*

Fun td game, I’m at level 20 and I have not been pay walled yet. But you can’t aim and the auto aim SUCKS! Plz let me aim

### 5/5 — Классная тема

*2026-02-04, version 1.0.2*

Поиграл пару часов, затянуло неплохо, геймплей в ней необычный очень, даже нестандартный для товер дефенса как жанра, как будто пересобирает игровой процесс, и смотришь немного по другому на такой жанр игр, игра класс, советую хотя бы попробовать

### 1/5 — Game won’t load

*2026-01-04, version 1.0.2*

The game won’t launch no matter how many times I reinstall it.

### 4/5 — Ma note

*2025-11-29, version 1.0.2*

Si il n’y aurais pas de publicitées ce serais parfait

### 1/5 — Don’t play

*2025-11-20, version 1.0.2*

Don’t load the game

### 1/5 — Bug

*2025-10-04, version 1.0.2*

Updated app. Stuck on loading startup screen. The black screen with white circles.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t load

*2025-09-30, version 1.0.1*

I tried deleting and redownloading several times and each time it doesn’t load into the game. 

I get three loading icons and that’s it. I set it down and waited a while thinking it might need to download/load content but I guess it’s just broken right now.

### 1/5 — ㄴㄴ

**Developer response:** 안타깝게도 무료 게임은 우리 가족을 부양하지 못합니다.
