Options for sounds Suck! You have to turn off all the sound just to turn off the clicking sounds. That sucks. I like the sounds, I f/&@ing hate clicking sounds. More than half the fun is listening to the archer shoot the enemy but no, no sound at all because it’s either all sounds or no sounds. Please delete the click sound. How useless is it anyway? Other than that 5 star game so far. ### 4/5 — Strong Gameplay, Needs Stability Improvements *2026-06-15, version 0.6.350* I’ve been playing for about two days now, and overall I’ve had a great experience. The game uses familiar tower defense mechanics but adds enough unique features to make it stand out from other TD games in the genre. My favorite feature is the Hero system. Being able to equip the Hero with gear that provides meaningful bonuses adds depth to the gameplay and makes progression feel more engaging. While the game progresses at a slower pace, that’s pretty typical for tower defense games. What sets this one apart is how the Hero, Hero equipment, and skill cards work together to create a progression system that feels much more balanced and rewarding than many similar games I’ve played. The main reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is due to occasional game freezes. Every so often the game becomes unresponsive, requiring me to completely close and reopen the app before I can continue my run. Most of the time my progress is preserved, but I have lost run progress once before, which was frustrating. Even so, it doesn’t happen often enough to outweigh my overall enjoyment of the game. Despite that issue, I’ve really enjoyed my time with the game and think it has a lot of potential. If the stability issues are addressed, this could easily become a 5-star game for me. ### 4/5 — Constantly crashes *2026-01-17, version 0.6.345* Hello, is there any plan to fix the current bug of the game crashing every single time I launch it within 1-4 minutes? I really enjoy the game and wish to keep playing however it is literally unplayable for me at the moment. It has been like this the past 4 days. ### 2/5 — Fun but repetitive *2025-04-06, version 0.6.332* It’s a fun game but repetitive within the first 10 min of gameplay. It didn’t get better with more time ### 4/5 — Good game but time consuming *2025-03-20, version 0.6.332* The games fun. A lot of bugs got fixed, but there’s no way 1 match should last over 1 and a half hours. Only 2 speeds: 1x and 2x. Zero point in the 1x cause that would double the time spent. A quality of life upgrade would be giving 5x-10x etc speed cause it’s WAYYYYY too slow especially if u have to start from level 1 and work ur way onwards. It took me almost 2 hours just to hit level 291. ### 2/5 — Zzzz *2025-03-18, version 0.6.332* I started to fall asleep while automating this game. The solution was to delete it and rest since this game is not designed to keep you awake. ### 4/5 — On and Off *2025-02-28, version 0.6.330* Been playing this game on and off for around 5 years. It is addicting and I do like it. Spent money on the game to bypass watching ads and 5X speed and other things. Worth the money. DEVS right now my problem is today. Today I can’t get past the loading screen now and I am using an iPhone 14. Please help or fix. ### 4/5 — Logging In *2025-02-28, version 0.6.328* It’s sometimes near impossible to log in ### 4/5 — Love it! *2025-02-28, version 0.6.328* I love this game! Been playing it for a month now. I’m pretty far. But for the last day now I can’t load into it. The loading bar loads half way than nothing. Please fix. ### 3/5 — An awesome game *2025-02-28, version 0.6.328* It’s a very simple game: Survive as long as you can, use gold to upgrade skills, survive longer, rinse and repeat. You’ll unlock more skills as you level up Update: Feb 28 2025 This is was great but now there are bugs constantly. Can’t even play the game today with or without internet. It just freezes at the load screen ### 4/5 — Level 30 Bug *2025-01-12, version 0.6.323* I enjoy playing this game and sure it’s great, but I can’t unlock the village! I’ve completed its objective several times of killing the level 30 boss (currently stuck at 35). Please fix this issue it’s annoying me that I can’t progress naturally and these progression shards are worthless. ### 3/5 — Love this game. But can’t use all the features. *2025-01-08, version 0.6.323* Made it to level 750+ but still haven’t unlocked village or heroes. Very annoying… ### 2/5 — Has bugs that needs to be fixed *2024-12-14, version 0.6.320* The game is not bad, but it has some bugs my level 100 but I still can’t claim the prize or open up the village that it says should open at 30 definitely has a few bugs that need to be fixed besides that I would give it more stars and says I can claim my prize at the top but when you try to click on it or tap it, nothing happens ### 1/5 — Всё просрали *2024-10-30* Была нормальная игра для мест без интернета, но всё опять привязали к серверному времени, и без интернета теперь не пимграть нормально… ### 1/5 — Really fun but one really bad issue *2024-10-27, version 0.5.305* The fact that I literally cannot get a damage/attack % perk (haven’t seen one for days) or an attack speed perk (haven’t seen one in over a week) is just straight garbage. How is it possible if it’s not literally rigged? Game is also incredibly p2w and paying to get farther just gets you bored as you have to leave the thing on for a million years before you clear stage. Just a warning. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Crashes *2026-07-06, version 0.6.350* The game crashes every 3/4 minutes everytime I try and play it. ### 1/5 — Баги с рекламой *2026-04-21* Почините уже баг с рекламой . При просмотре рекламы игра зависает . В результате реклама посмотрена , игра зависла , буст не дали . И так по 5-6 раз подряд . Просто издевательство . Посмотрел , зависло , перезапустил игру , и и по новой . iPhone 14. ### 1/5 — Pessima evolução *2026-02-22* O jogo te obriga sempre a voltar ao estágio 1 e para chegar novamente ao estágio 100 leva mais de 20min deixando impossível avançar no jogo. Existe o modo em 2x, mas deveria ser no mínimo em 10x já que não salva aonde parou da última vez que morreu, ou a cada 10 estágios concluídos. Pessimo para avançar. ### 1/5 — Have had enough *2025-03-24, version 0.6.332* This game was ok but the ad is going too far. At first it was 30 second , then 45, then 60 and now some are 120 and don’t let you skip. Just feel like they force you to get the ad free. I buy ad free for other games too, but this game force you to buy and I don’t like it. ### 1/5 — Cannot open app *2025-02-28, version 0.6.328* 2/28/2025 app will not load. Progress bar frozen at “loading epic loot tables” missing daily rewards and play time. Please send a fix ASAP ### 1/5 — Loading *2025-02-28, version 0.6.328* I tried reinstalling, but the game won’t just load gets stuck at like 75 percent. ### 1/5 — Perma crash *2025-02-28, version 0.6.328* This game is awesome, but after playing it for like 30 hours or more it won’t load anymore. I can’t play it. I even tried to re-install the game and nothing. Still won’t work. ### 1/5 — Hm *2025-02-28, version 0.6.328* Game never loaded past “loading epic loot tables.” I tried 4 times on my iPhone 16 pro and stuck there every time. Idk ### 1/5 — Не работает *2025-02-28* Приложение перестало запускаться, бесконечная загрузка. Айфон 13. ### 1/5 — Buggy *2024-12-26, version 0.6.323* This game is fun but I havent been able to really enjoy it due to the bugs I am personally experiencing. This wouldnt be a grave issue if I could at least hear back on my support ticket but I havent heard anything back from the support team and my game is still bugging. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Thanks for fix *2026-02-12, version 0.6.350* Great game, Thanks devs. ### 5/5 — Please fix *2026-01-20, version 0.6.345* I login to game and accept online rewards and spend and hour or more on the game without clicking off the screen but the offline rewards hasn’t changed since I first logged in, so I have go out of game close it then log back in to collect offline rewards please put it to how it was before so I don’t have to log out then log back into the game. Plus the time on the screen just before the pure black screen(the one you wait 30 secs for) doesn’t change. Thanks devs. ### 5/5 — Please fix immediately *2025-02-28, version 0.6.328* I click the app it then goes to loading page. Then crashes or stops loading when it say loading epic loot tables… please fix this is great game I don’t want to not be able to play. Thanks devs ### 5/5 — 10x game speed *2025-02-28, version 0.6.328* All I’m waiting for is 10x game speed. ### 5/5 — What a shot! *2024-10-24, version 0.5.301* A great game that will keep you busy in your free time! Skeletons can't get through! ### 5/5 — É divertido *2024-09-13* Jogo é muito legal desde o início. Mas a partir do level 500 fica explícito o problema de balanceamento. O dano do inimigo fica extremamente alto e os upgrades muito caro. Entre o level 600 e 700 o jogo retornou que eu tinha ido mais longe que 99,99% dos jogadores para você ter ideia. Level 700 o dano é absurdo, basicamente vc precisa evitar levar hit, pq mesmo que invista em ponto de vida e redução de dano, 3 hits facilmente te mata. No momento cheguei no level 830, mas o jogo parece ir até o 1500 nessa versão que estou. Sinceramente até o level 1000 seria suficiente, até pq o jogo começa a dificultar a trazer coisas que façam sentido nos baús. Não vem os cards que você precisa, nem o personagem e nem equipamento. Até parece que o algoritmo começa a jogar contra você sorteando tudo, menos o que você quer. Resumindo, jogo excelente para quem gosta do gênero, mas se quiser chegar até o level “máximo”, coragem viu!!! ### 5/5 — Developers are making great progress!! *2024-08-09, version 0.4.252* I’ll start by saying all the negative reviews recently about the game not loading and stuff are a shame. Those issues have been resolved, and it was not due to the developers actions. iOS forced new player IDs on everyone when the game changed publishers, causing people to lose progress. The developer/owner of the game are deeply sorry and are asking players to contact them through support in Discord to try and get their accounts/progress back! I’ve been playing this for two years. It has had its ups and downs, but these past 3 months have been incredible. Consistent updates, content releases, bug fixes, balancing changes. The developers are interacting with the community via their discord more often and taking in player concerns/ideas moving forward. They have so much cool stuff coming, so stay tuned and come hang out in the Discord with everyone! ### 5/5 — Sugestão *2024-07-26* Jogo legal mas passa um tempo começa a parecer que vai acabar o que fazer. Sugestão um Boss semanal ou mensal, talvez com vida ilimitada e um ranking de fana-te, ou talvez algumas rodadas antes do Boss começando com status do zero e sem talentos Fun game, maybe should add a weakly Boss, maybe unlimited life and a damage ranking, or some rounds before boss starting from zero talents ### 5/5 — 업데이트 해주세요 *2024-04-08* 재밌는데 업데이트좀 해주세요. 그리고 업그레이드 할때 1씩 올리기 오래걸려요. 한번에 x10, x100 업그레이드 만들어 주세요. ### 5/5 — Muito bom *2024-03-30* Só precisa atualizar, já zerei, tenho todas as cartas, os dois heróis gratuitos, e vários itens legendários, que podem subir ainda. Esperando atualizar cheguei na fase 2.290 , e parei de jogar --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
