The upgrade cost wouldn’t be that big of a blow till you realize your investment is a joke. For example a 77 million dollar upgrade grants you an extra 350 coins. 77,000,000! For 350 coins per recruit. That’s insane. Gets better though. To build a new training area you have to spend billions, yes billions with a B. Cost should either be lowered heavily or return on trainee moved up the ratio is terribly off. Game has gotten to a stopping point as I think logging in for a month with 100 million every 6hrs to make 7b to continue is ridiculous. ### 4/5 — One problem *2023-01-02* This game is very fun! But there’s just one problem. Most other idle games start out easy. But this game after your first upgrade on something it will be super expensive after the first upgrade. And your just starting so you don’t make money easy. But this game was really fun so if it looks fun to you download it! ### 3/5 — Plz read *2022-10-18* This is like idle army tycoon but it is a little more fun than idle army tycoon ### 4/5 — Good, but could be better. *2022-09-21* I love this game. It is really good. But I think some more training could make it better. Like Bomb Defusal. ### 4/5 — Português Please *2022-09-12* Português Please ### 3/5 — Great game but repetitive *2022-05-10, version 2.1.0* Great game once you spent the 11$ for canceling ads. BUT very difficult to accumulate money. And the price for each new building to purchase is insanely expensive. There are also upgrades that needs lot of $$$ Takes forever to accumulate the $$$ this is why the game starts to get very repetitive and frustrating. ### 5/5 — Ohhhhhhh yeahhhhh *2022-04-20* So the title explains it all yes your game is so amazing and I love it like best game ever great job devs and keep it up keep making this game even better and you got a goat game but also please make more games like this game which is totally awesome 😎 thanks developers for an amazingly awesome game **Developer response:** Thank you very much for your 5 star review! We hope to release many more great game throughout the year and we're sure you will love them. Thanks for your kind comments, we really appreciate it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This game is very bad *2024-11-12, version 3.0.0* I have been playing for so long now at first it will be fun but after it will take whole month or even years to get a single upgrade and buy new stuff! ### 1/5 — Upgrade and gameplay *2024-05-27* The price to upgrade is unreasonably high over all its trash ### 1/5 — Waste of time. *2024-04-17, version 3.0.0* Your idle away time 2 hours, you have earned £374k, amount in your bank £247k. It doesn’t even add on the idle earnings properly, combined with how expensive everything is make this one of the most dull and pointless idle games ever. ### 1/5 — . *2023-04-26, version 2.4.0* Way too many ads, and I’m not paying eight great British pounds to remove them, other than that it’s okay ### 1/5 — It has potential but.. *2022-09-16, version 2.4.0* The progression upgrade prices are impossible. If a game doesn’t make fun and has to bound you to it in order to progress even a little is a big no for me. ### 1/5 — Unplayable *2022-04-20, version 2.0.0* Gets to a point where is won’t allow you to earn enough money. Only allows 343k in your amount even when your offline play is more than this. Can’t buy forth area because of this so unplayable ### 1/5 — Horrible *2022-04-14, version 2.0.0* First of all another copy of all of their other games nothing special just different stuff to buy and do. But the main problem is how you start it with no tutorial at all, it just throws you in. Then the game itself it’s so boring there’s no noise/music at all and the game is time consuming to get upgrades. Similar to their other games in a way ### 2/5 — Feels half finished but has great potential. *2024-09-13* I love idle tycoon style games and this one has a lot of potential but it feels half finished. There are visual bugs during the emergency deployments. There is only music, no sfx. The offline progress is ridiculously slow. The scaling of upgrade prices and income is totally messed up, forcing you to spend money on stars instead of giving a reasonable way to warm them in game. Also hasn’t been updated in like a year, so there’s that too. If it’s an abandoned project, there shouldn’t be in app purchases. I like the game and hope the developers can build on it and fix these issues. ### 2/5 — Too idle even with purchases *2024-01-31, version 3.0.0* I really love the concept of this game, and it is fun and easy to play. For example, there’s not a compulsory tutorial, and it’s not needed as the game is self-explanatory and easy to navigate. I purchased the ad-free perk, as I was really enjoying the game and it’s not feasible to progress without watching ads. However, I’ve come to regret this as I managed to pretty much max out the game in just one day. I couldn’t proceed further without either extremely long waiting periods where I have nothing to do in-game at all, or purchasing more things in-game. The game is literally “too idle” in the sense that you end up waiting around for so long unless you’re willing to spend unreasonable amounts of money. Other idle/tycoon games overcome this by providing more activities/ways to earn money in-game. Hopefully you will implement this ### 3/5 — Okay gameplay, some functions don’t work *2023-08-25, version 3.0.0* Gameplay is okay, however upgrade costs are very high even at the start of the game. Also, the feature to watch ads to increase offline income does not work. I’ve watched four ads to see if the bar will move, but it does not. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Add a mission that requires helicopters keep it up guys! *2026-03-21, version 3.0.1* I support you guys 5 star ### 5/5 — Cool game. *2026-02-17* Cool game.
