### 2/5 — Crazy Lag

*2025-02-13, version 24.0.4*

The game was fun when I first downloaded it. I love the amount of upgrades it offers but for the past 4-5 months there has been a terrible lag in the gameplay. I was hoping they would’ve fixed it by now with the newest update but no change still.

私はこのゲームを半年以上やり続けてきましたが、もっと改善すべき点があります。
一つ目は簡単すぎるのでもっと
ステージの難易度を上げて欲しい
二つ目は新キャラをもっと出して欲しい
三つ目は新しい敵を出して欲しい
この要望が叶いますよう
よろしくお願いします🙇

### 3/5 — Глюк

*2024-06-24, version 24.0.2*

Бесконечный режим на 13 минуте или ближе к 5000 килов начинает выбивать из игры!

### 4/5 — Movement

*2024-06-19*

I have been playing the game now for two to three years now with hardly any issues but since the last update the soldiers movement is juddery

### 3/5 — Broken Right Now

*2024-06-11, version 24.0.2*

The game played smoothly for 2 years. Now the walking animation is messed up and all over the place…please fix.

### 3/5 — Good but…

*2023-11-02, version 23.0.11*

This game is good and I play it quite a lot but when I unlock new characters they don’t save so I have to keep unlocking them all again which is very frustrating.

### 4/5 — I hate the walking animation

*2023-10-22, version 23.0.11*

Great game but the walking animation is just not great I hate it but it’s a really good game

### 2/5 — Premium cards

*2023-05-30, version 23.0.11*

Was there a change with a previous update? My premium cards used to be part of my default team but now, I can only use them in endless mode where team size is limited

### 2/5 — Okay concept

*2023-01-20, version 23.0.11*

I like the concept as it has twist on typical rogue-like games like archero and survivor.io but it is a huge money grab. Bought the 2.99 remove ads only to find out the vast majority of stuff is still behind ads. What a joke.

### 4/5 — Headache inducing

*2023-01-01, version 23.0.11*

Can you pls remove the shock effect of the ‘Future Soldier’s’ rockets, it really gives me bad headaches and nauseated.

### 1/5 — Movement

*2025-02-11, version 24.0.4*

I have been playing the game now for two to three years now with hardly any issues but since the last update the soldiers movement is juddery
Edit as of 11/02/25 the latest update still hasn’t fixed the game movement it still judders

### 1/5 — Terrible frame-rate

*2024-12-21, version 24.0.2*

Do not download. The frame-rate is slower than 2012. Would give me a headache if I watched for too long.

### 1/5 — Paid for no ads and still have ads

*2024-08-15, version 24.0.2*

I paid $2.99 twice and I still have ads.. this needs to be fixed or I want a refund

### 1/5 — Ads

*2023-10-01, version 23.0.11*

They make you watch the same ads every time. Then if you want to get 5x your winnings by watching a ad it doesn’t give it to you

### 1/5 — scam

*2023-06-28, version 23.0.11*

payed for no ads but still gives me ads never playing again

### 1/5 — BAD

*2023-03-25, version 23.0.11*

Scams kids for £7.00 not much but 6 year olds play this game

### 1/5 — THERE IS NO WAY TO CONTACT

*2023-03-24, version 23.0.11*

All of sudden, I lost entire my progression that I played for 8+ months for no reason. There is no "support" or "contact" info in-game. I tried to find FB page or Discord, but non-exists. 

So I goto official website of the company (8 SEC Games), then all I see is "Game", "Studio", "Job" tabs. 

THERE IS NO WAY TO CONTACT !!!!!!!!!!!

Does this company even exists? 🤔🤔🤔

### 1/5 — Bug fix

*2023-03-09, version 23.0.11*

This thing is dropping out and every day at reset it takes my coins back down to around 4000 it’s ripping me off

### 1/5 — Hey developers! Stop false advertising

*2023-01-16, version 23.0.11*

You guys paid money to appear as an ad on another game I play. Your ad for your game shows your game as one of those treadmill games where you walk through gates to + - x or divide your character and it shows Mario and Luigi shooting Goomba’s with guns?

Take the 1 Star. I wish false advertising was punishable by a minimum of 1 year in prison for fraud.

### 1/5 — Cash grab scam - poorly coded game

*2022-12-15, version 23.0.11*

Play tutorial first level Get offered $20 pack Game freezes Open game to continue tutorial about opening briefcase Get offered another $10 pack while user interface screen stack and game freezes Open game - crash Open game - start briefcase Get advertisement Truly an AWFUL experience for the gameplay, user interface and overall app use. I’ve played old school flash games built in a day that ran better and was more interesting than this garbage heap. I feel sorry for the contract devs who were forced to make this. 8sec is a company that focuses solely on monetization of mobile apps to bleed money from gamers. Do not download their games. Their motto is “-to acquire players through the best channel at a lower prize.”

Poo poo

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2023-09-30, version 23.0.11*

Awesome game. How about an upgrade where you can choose multiple same people for endless?!

### 5/5 — Just a good game in general

*2023-06-25, version 23.0.11*

All those other people are probably robots, and I do not know what they are talking about. You can play this game anywhere at any time. Wi-Fi or no, it’s an awesome mobile game.

### 5/5 — Th best

### 5/5 — 毎日嵌めたり、

*2022-05-09*

*2022-05-02, version 23.0.6*

### 5/5 — Good game but bugs

*2022-04-27, version 23.0.6*

This is really a good game and I hope you add more characters but I had a bug that aloud me to skip levels I hope you can fix this

### 5/5 — Activar / Desactivar Premium

*2022-04-05, version 23.0.6*

Se podría dar la opción de desactivar las cartas Premium de salida de cada Mundo

### 5/5 — Is time to upgrade

*2022-04-05, version 23.0.6*

Game is fun but on endless mode need to have 
reinforcement, like upgrade item & need to put more hero’s not only 4 so that player can keep on break the record. Also should put the magnet to suck all the gold when end
