Event can be nice to add to the game :) ### 4/5 — Please update! Great Game! *2024-11-03, version 1.1.5* This is a fun game and great potential. After 2 days I already beat all stages and maxed out the 3 skill trees. Please up the game and add more weapons and stages and stuff. Do this and I change to 5 stars. ### 2/5 — Fun game, but ads bug out and you lose. *2024-01-23* Ads bug out and the game gets stuck. You can’t close the ad and it says 4 seconds left. Only option is to close the game. Can’t make any progress if you can’t play. If the ad removal was 1.99, I’d pay for it straight away. Worth the gamble. But at 4.99, I’m not sure it is worth it. So… fix the ads getting stuck and I’ll edit my review. 👍 ### 2/5 — Meh *2023-06-17* There are so many other cheap flimsy no-effort ripoff copies of Survivor, and this one is among the poorest cheapest copies. Literally the exact same game as all the others, without even bothering to properly balance the features they copied from all the other games. ### 3/5 — Chapters *2023-03-27* Great gameplay but after a few days I maxed all 3 talent trees and after 5 days I beat all 5 chapters on all difficulty levels. I did purchase a $4.99 character just to support the content creator but I am a tad disappointed that it wasn’t the 5 star as portrayed. Otherwise please release more chapters and larger talent tree Update: it’s been months since this review and still no update so my star review will go down to a 3 ### 2/5 — Lazy Ripoff *2023-03-05, version 1.1.5* Some good ideas with the skill tree and weapon design, but ultimately falls flat with the poor endless feature and repetitive gameplay. The hero differences aren’t interesting enough, and the item system is dull and unfulfilling ### 4/5 — Nice game *2023-02-25, version 1.1.5* It’s a fun game, just needs the cost of rerolls for upgrades and salvage costs to be significantly more balanced, salvaging an item shouldn’t just be 600 gold for a gold border item… it should be at least like 20k or more. The chance of it dropping and the significance of it is just disappointing when you can only sell it for 600… ### 4/5 — Love it, but…. *2023-02-11* First) Devs, great base game. Good mechanics and play. Second) There is NO variance at all. Zero ranged enemies. All enemies including bosses just chase you around and have no skills or abilities. Third) There is just not enough content. Got through all stages by day 2 as free to play. There could be much more skills/talents, maps, difficulty, enemies etc.. left with nothing to do except endless mode which is always the same. ### 4/5 — Good game but needs some improvements *2023-01-29, version 1.1.5* Hi, Great game, purchased and was almost worthwhile. Got to a place where we need more levels. 5 floors, we need more! I’ve spent money and want to take it as far as possible but without much left to do, I’ve hit a wall and it’s only been 5 days! Good enough system to put energy in. ### 3/5 — The ups and downs *2023-01-22* Its fun, and I feel like it has good potential, but the adds keep freezing the game, making it difficult to progress ### 2/5 — It’s mediocre at best. *2023-01-01* Loaded with ad prompts, over priced cash shop and it has a mechanic that fences you in with a boss and the perimeter closes in while the boss just face rolls you and cheats the player into a 100% chance of death. ### 3/5 — Just Meh *2022-12-24, version 1.1.5* Not very good ### 4/5 — Chapters *2022-12-20, version 1.1.5* Great gameplay but after a few days I maxed all 3 talent trees and after 5 days I beat all 5 chapters on all difficulty levels. I did purchase a $4.99 character just to support the content creator but I am a tad disappointed that it wasn’t the 5 star as portrayed. Otherwise please release more chapters and larger talent tree ### 3/5 — Bosses have too much HP *2022-12-09* Basically title. Bosses have way too much HP. You could easily survive the 10 minutes waves, only to spend another 5+ minutes killing the boss. It’s not challenging, just tedious. If you can survive a few seconds of a boss, you can kill it - just takes waaay too long. ### 4/5 — Good but cash grab *2022-12-07, version 1.1.4* The game is fun and all builds are easy and flexible to each other. The game is great as long as you’re playing F2P. The battle pass is $20 and seemingly not even worth it. You can buy 4 games of this type on steam with that amount. and all advertised “gifts” (discounted deals) are practically scams. They offer and show off a character at 5 stars but once paid for you’ll receive it as 1 star. And chests are offered at increments of 10 stating it’s $64.99 at an original price but in reality it’s only about $45. Discounted to $5 and only when there are less than 6 legendary items to collect isn’t all that worth it. I wouldn’t bother spending any money on this but it’s still enjoyable without all that. ### 2/5 — Buggy. *2022-12-06* During a run I “upgraded” a chest, the ad crashed my game. Force closing the app cause all of my account information to be lost. Fortunately I had uploaded to the cloud save information, unfortunately downloading it didn’t work. Deleted the app and reinstalled, tried to download information again and nothing works. Fix your buggy ads for a better rating. ### 2/5 — Ads don’t work *2022-11-28, version 1.1.4* Whenever I go to watch an ad for anything be it cheats or extra powerups, it just constantly says ad failed ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Brainless mindless grind *2024-05-24, version 1.1.5* complete lack of variety and bosses. The rounds themselves are 15 minutes and then you have a red boss that just moves at you for another 15 to 20 minutes. Most brainless grinding I’ve ever seen in my life ### 1/5 — No updates *2024-03-09, version 1.1.5* Didn't realize that devs abandoned the game and wasn't updated since a year ago. Don't waste your money nor time on this. Lacking content. ### 1/5 — Game is dead *2024-01-19, version 1.1.5* Development has stopped and there is about 40 minutes of content don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — Game is Dead *2023-08-11, version 1.1.5* It died 7mo the ago and no foreseeable future sadly. ### 1/5 — No Update Since Game Release *2023-05-25, version 1.1.5* 0 content update since game launch. All they update was an overpriced battle pass ($25), and they don't even release new battle pass. Game has so much bugs including reset your progress, but there is no support exists (You never get the response even if you lose your entire progress). So better pick another game for ur good 👍🏻 ### 1/5 — Too Much Grind & False Advertising *2023-01-30* This game is extremely grindy, very repetitive and the in-app purchases are misleading and complete garbage, The grinding was expected I got this game for when I had a lot of downtime away from my regular game system but this game give you absolutely nothing, to the point that it is no longer fun and become repetitive very fast. When I get a game that is very grindy I expect a lot of content and rewards that keep me engaged and keep the game feeling fresh and new so I decided to make some inapp purchases to help me make a little more progress, I bought the battle pass which is extremely lack luster, it had decent rewards locked behind a whole lot of tasks that took a long time to complete and each task made very little progress towards the next reward, another instance of misleading inapp purchases were their “gift bags” which are about $5 USD and advertise a 5 star character which would save me having to collect about 300 fragments but in the end it was a scam giving me only a 1 star character. I am extremely disappointed with this game and will be contacting my bank for full refunds of this garbage. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS GAME. ### 1/5 — Game lies + heavy ads *2023-01-17, version 1.1.5* I spent 30 mins in Chapter 2 part 2. I killed the boss AFTER timer ended and all bosses but game never ended and I failed the mission. Waste of my time. Do not play. Game heavily not programmed correctly. ### 1/5 — Terrible game *2023-01-15, version 1.1.5* Just play vampire survivors ### 1/5 — Frequently freezes after watching an ad *2022-12-07, version 1.1.4* Title ### 1/5 — Freezes when I use ads to open chests . *2022-11-17* Really annoying I can’t even complete some of the levels because it freezes. Would be a five star game if they update and get rid of the bugs . I’m on a iPhone 13pro max and it freezes. Makes no sense . ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Nearly perfect *2023-11-12* I love this game and it’s addicting but it’s missing a Few things that would make it perfect. -bigger talent tree -another use for gold -more Ultimate weapons ### 5/5 — Great *2023-09-27, version 1.1.5* The Developers of this one makes it alot of fun out of this new genre. Thankz ### 5/5 — Don’t stop… *2023-01-27, version 1.1.5* … working on the game, devs!!! This is a great start, but you need to clean up the language, and make the game give more in the beginning, and grow in difficulty. ### 5/5 — Se1dou x SSS *2022-12-19* wassap! the game is cool, but soooooooo short. Here's what I would suggest to add to the game: 1. more chapters (at least 3) 2. more synergies. 3. remove the white hit points on the bosses, and make the red outline more beautiful or something. 4. Make a normal avatar of the game, because this one is very scary, it scares people away 🤷‍♂️ 5. add a new weapon rarity (to create it you need to combine 5 lower rarity weapons. 6. And most importantly, get involved in this game, do not create new ones, promote this one. Good luck with promotion! ### 5/5 — Enjoyed, but already done *2022-11-25* Beat all the available content after 3 days or so. Fun game, though, just too short. Glad I didn’t buy anything in game because I would feel cheated. ### 5/5 — Awsome *2022-11-20, version 1.1.3* Graat gamr ### 5/5 — Best free rouge-like on the AppStore I’ve found so far *2022-11-18, version 1.1.3* An actual endless mode, no energy system, and engaging and balanced progression makes it far better than survivor.io, hordes vs heroes, project clean planet, and others. Only complaint is the English translation which makes understanding what certain spells and passive do confusing. ### 5/5 — It’s really good, but *2022-11-07* Heya! I enjoy the game a lot. I think some things that could be improved however - Some kind of multiplayer feature like a guild and you get bonuses for being in one. A LOT more talent options, these kinds of games are typically infinite. ### 5/5 — Love it *2022-11-01* Only downside is there isn’t nearly enough gameplay, would like to see game modes and features similar to other survival games, super fun game ### 5/5 — Crashes *2022-10-20* After an ad will play sometimes it crashes and that’s not cool. Other then that I fool with it --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
