### 5/5 — Multiplayer

*2026-02-26, version 13.2.0*

How to play multiplayer

### 5/5 — 이게임의 발전이 계속되길 빕니다

*2025-11-22, version 13.1.0*

옛날에 까스맨 영상보고왔는데 꽤 재밌습니다 개인적으론 배틀그라운드보다 재밌어요 다만 스토리모드같은것도 있으면 좋겠습니자

### 5/5 — Very fun game

*2025-07-16*

This game is super fun and a good time waster would definitely recommend to others

### 4/5 — PVEなFPS

*2025-05-29, version 12.5.2*

FPSゲームは広告収入目的な物が多い中、広告は無いに等しく、2025年06月時点でも、まだまだ継続してコンテンツの拡張が行われている
update内容にあるものだけでなく、検証も可能になりました。
良い点
・リロードが割と本格的
・銃弾に限りがあり、考えながら行動していかないと、簡単に詰む。その点が割とリアル。
・クラシックモードがhigh-endコンテンツ化していて、限界に挑める楽しさがある。
・マルチにおいて、味方のHP回復手段がある。(しかもポイント稼げる)
・ゲーム内通貨でprayerの見た目を変えれる。
・銃のカスタマイズが可能。
悪い点
・敵の行動がほとんど一緒で、prayerに近づくor攻撃する。という2つしかない
広めなマップでもその場で待機してれば敵が自分から来てくれる状態。
prayerには発信機でも着いてるんですかね？
もっと意味不明な行動やウロウロと彷徨っていても良いと思います。
・マルチで、味方が敵に倒された場合の蘇生手段が無い。メディックの役割に増やされても良いと思います。
・マルチで、味方に弾薬や一部アイテム類を渡せても良いと思います。条件や制約は必要だと思いますが・・・
・銃のカスタマイズの選択肢が少ない。
例えば、ショットガンはバレルの長短で集弾率を変化可能です。
他の銃では、サイレンサーや銃口部分、使用する弾丸の大きさ(それによる威力変化や利点の増大、デメリットの増大)、スコープやアイアンサイト、ドットサイト等の選択肢等々・・・現実に存在する銃を参考に、可能な限りでカスタマイズの選択肢は存在するかと。
・近接武器の射程が、施設やデモプレイ時には誤った判定になっており、本当の有効範囲が不明である

私からは以上です。
今後も発展していくと思うので、個人的には今後のupdateが楽しみです。

### 4/5 — Bugging on safe house

*2025-02-25*

I really like the game and I got use to the gameplay, the only problem is that when I go to the safe house and buy multiple weapons, the game starts bugging so i don’t know if you could fix that please and thank you

### 4/5 — Killing Floor for the iphone!!

*2025-01-09*

I’d honestly PAY for this kind of experience! Plus you can upgrade the weapons you like that’s awesome! That’s missing from KF honestly, the weapons I liked didn’t always scale, and now they do? 

However, the controls are not good. I keep hitting the auto fire on and off, and I once accidentally killed myself because the grenade button is in the movement area (which is only half of the screen, which sometimes means you’ll just stand still if you don’t put your finger on the right spot! 

Also, the weakest zombies have too much hp. I’d suggest making a weaker variant of zombie that can grab hold of you like clots do, but have half the hp of the normal zombies. 

However, the gameplay is smooth and good. Especially for free. The ads are fine, they aren’t spammed everywhere. 

I’ll tell other people about this, great job dev!

Edit: you can move the buttons on screen in the options!! Great game

### 4/5 — This game has potential

*2025-01-02, version 12.2.2*

Ngl this game is freaking cool, I just founded yesterday and I really like it. This game is better than pixel combat zombies not gonna lie. U should add more guns or maps fr. And one thing you should do is just make the game where u can only buy the guns, not upgrade the damage of the weapons because first, I don’t even get enough points to upgrade my gun or buy a new gun it gives low

*2024-10-12*

I’d say it’s dope, although I’d wish there was like bots you can play with In the single player cause there isn’t much people in multiplayer
