### 2/5 — Game crashes & Support button is disabled

*2025-11-23*

Title says it all… I’ve been playing for about 20 mins and the game has crashed twice. After spending 5+ mins on 2 stages to end up having to restart from the beginning on both is preposterous. I rarely write reviews especially bad ones, but when I went to settings for support and found out the button had been disabled I had to reach out somehow. Please get it together and don’t have in game purchases unless you have decent latency. Good day to you.

*2023-03-16*

### 5/5 — So far I've been enjoying it

*2023-03-16*

I only played the game for a while but I am loving it so far. The graphics are great and the storyline is actually pretty good. It has an actual story, not just a bunch of random fighting like some other games. ​‍ ‍

### 5/5 — Intensive experience    ‌

### 5/5 — Fun for All Skill Levels   ‍

*2023-03-15*

I feel like this is a game that could be fun for all skilled levels, for casual gamers looking to pass time or for hardcore players who are looking for something more. I’m a relatively mid core player myself and I would say that it kept me engaged throughout the entire game. ‍‍ ​

### 5/5 — Epic Boss Fights‍‍

*2023-03-15*

To complete every level in this game, you would have to engage the boss in an epic final boss fight. They can be really hard to beat sometimes but with the right combos, its actually not that difficult, and its actually a great way to test your skills.​

**Developer response:** Hello, dear Roweheardx!

Thank you very much for supporting and encouraging FINAL 5. The FINAL 5 boss is indeed powerful, so let's work together to develop our skills and defeat it!

### 5/5 — Great Variety of Weapons​

*2023-03-15*

Yeah I know every other game has weapons, but this game actually have some pretty eccentric skills and weapons like cue ball stick LOL. It may seem like it isn’t much but the evolution version is really cool and helpful. You wouldn’t really find this sort of weapons in other game, which really makes this game unique in my opinion.​‌

**Developer response:** Dear Signe Valles, Hello! Thank you very much for your support and encouragement for FINAL 5. Each update of FINAL 5 will optimize skills and weapons. Let's look forward to more exciting game content together! Additionally, we would like to invite you to our Discord game forum at https://discord.gg/final5.

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2023-02-13*

I’ve played through the entire game and beat all the levels. It has lots of different hero’s and a decent amount of events. The only issue I’ve had with it, is the difficulty in getting the skills I want in game. I’ll get the same 3 skills I don’t want 3 levels in a row. I always end up using all my skips and re-rolls and can still never get the skills I want. It’s so frustrating. The game just has too many. There needs to be a way you can pick at least 3 active skills and 3 support skills you don’t like so they don’t ever appear in game. A way to cancel them out. I’d seriously pay for this feature. Please add it!!!

### 1/5 — Can’t even log in

*2023-05-19, version 3.3.02*

I just got this game, I’m not even able to log in.  It won’t let me check the I agree button for the terms and conditions.

### 1/5 — Purchases not being accredited

*2023-03-10, version 3.2.13*

Although 3 large purchases are being posted to my iTunes account, they are not accredited in the game (error 425-7). Tried to get help, but no. Money pit.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2023-02-23, version 3.2.0*

Game won’t load

### 1/5 — Update 3.2.0

*2023-02-23, version 3.2.0*

I have not been able to log in for a few days since the update.

### 1/5 — STAY AWAY, JUST ANOTHER COPY AND PASTE GAME

*2023-01-14, version 1.0.36*

This is just another Archer Hero clone with the exact same scummy mtx shop. Waste of time.

### 1/5 — Bug

*2023-01-11, version 1.0.36*

Life steal problem. Only heal 1hp every time with full life steal set and item

### 1/5 — Deleted everything and can’t get it back

*2022-12-28, version 1.0.36*

Do not download, this game will delete your profile and all data linked to it. I was a high level and really enjoyed this game and one day my profile was wiped and I had to restart. I spent money on purchases and leveled everything up. Spent a lot of time on the game. I was so close to buying the pass and I’m so glad I didn’t. Imagine wasting that much money for the game to keep your money and delete everything.
