### 2/5 — Fun but hard to progress

*2025-07-19*

Why do we have to wait so long to level up?  Unlike prior game, this one is even more challenging to advance without paying more money.  I’m happy to watch videos to help pay if that is necessary, but it is really tiresome to play constantly and not win.  I have plenty of money in the bank but can’t level up in order to get the advantage.  So I quit for several days until I get bored.

**Developer response:** We are sorry for the bad gaming experience you have experienced. We will continue to update and optimize the game and strive to bring a high-quality gaming experience to all players.

### 4/5 — Review

*2025-07-01, version 332*

Graphics need to be 10-20% bigger   

make harder to level up acquire equipment  most things available right away

Add more units to acquire

### 5/5 — WW2 GAME A MUST PLAY

*2025-06-27*

I’ve been playing now for a long awhile and the game is great the graphics yet not the best with current tech but must admit best out of any WW2 GAME I PLAYED YET. The troops and generals are the best they’re always coming out with new material like new troops and generals you can buy and they every time you accomplish goals you have a chance to unlock a general of gold standard or an elite troops that won’t be available again unless they release it with the game but the game is exciting,Addicting and all around a great game to play if you like history and war games I have 2 words of advice. 1- Cash in the game is hard to come by so use it wisely and really only use it on upgrading troops and generals skills and their ranks. 2-if you watch the ads and buy the 30day v.i.p. Package and than spend 600 medals on investing you’ll have way more than enough medals at the end of the month to buy cash in game and to unlock troops in the tech screen it’s all intimidating at 1st but if I figured it out so will you and also I almost forgot a 3rd piece of advice contact to discord and look through the guides that teach you how to make the best of this game and if anything issues somebody in the chat will help you with anything you’ll need advice what to spend money on and what’s not worth it anything you’ll ever need these guys know trust me that’s all I have for you about this game but I’ve been playing everyday for over 2yrs now and still playing

**Developer response:** Thank you for your love and support for our game. We will continue to update and optimize the game and strive to bring high-quality gaming experience to all players.
