### 5/5 — Great little game here

*2023-04-07*

Been playing it for about a week and it’s great, some areas are needed still but that’s because it’s still new and I see that they plan to have those in future updates. All in all, great ftp friendly, without getting slapped in the face with ads. No random ads either. Also prices seem reasonable for what you get. No pvp but I’m not into that so it doesn’t bother me. Shot stuff in a keep, yep, simple, fun, level up and kill. Have fun and give it a shot.

### 5/5 — This is fun but still new

*2023-02-25*

This game released about 2 weeks ago, but still has a fun campaign, and only ads for a crate, upgrades are cheap and weapon's unique (try it out)

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Ads in Triplicate. Way too many.

*2024-07-13*

Way to ruin a decent game. When an ad comes up you click no. And another pops up immediately after. Click no again. And it happened AGAIN. Doesn’t matter how good the game is, it’s ruined by greed.

### 1/5 — Good balance but bugs

*2023-07-31*

Edit edit: dropped to 1 star as found even more bugs in the latest update. For the devs - there appears to be no coin reward for Riptide boss (or rather the coins never appear in your total) and Juggernaut boss disappears off the screen on occasion. Keep upgrading the Cygnus drone and when I load the game again the upgrades have disappeared but the coins used not refunded. Large areas of black in the new farm levels and the attachment upgrades don’t stay selected if you have more than one! Medical sickness activity seems pointless with no user interaction. Descriptions for base buildings all the same. Staff appear to be stuck on deployment in barracks and cannot select new missions. Staff numbers in barracks seem unrelated to missions. General explanations and help to understand new base functions poor. Mission types for resource/evolve/rescue missions do not change. 
Otherwise (!) a fun game with sensible non-exponential (although not so much in the new base area…) cost upgrade tree.

### 2/5 — Lazy Game (no, seriously)

*2024-08-01*

This is a good game and it’s actually pretty fun, but there are multiple things that ruin the experience.

1. sErVeR eRrOr - It’s impossible to collect mission rewards because the game always complains about a “server error” no matter how good your wifi and connection are. This results in you being under level since most coins are uncollectible.

2. Bad Tutorial - The entire upgrade system isn’t explained, so here it is: use coins to level your vehicle to max. Then use (don’t know the name— again, unexplained) to enhance and gain a star. Max stars = max upgrades. The game doesn’t explain how to switch abilities either so I’m stuck with the same one.

3. Aim Problems - Sometimes the vehicles straight up don’t aim. This is annoying especially in later levels when you get ambushed more regularly.

4. AI “Art” - I mean, come on. If it was good then I wouldn’t mind but half the people in my base have either three eyes or 5 arms. There’s even one guy that’s PINK.

Now that you read the bad things, here are the good things.

1. Game - it’s a game.

Thanks for reading this review!

### 3/5 — Latest update made me lose save data

*2023-07-06*

When the game updated I lost some one the 3 star Guns and I had to do several missions over again

### 4/5 — Good

*2023-12-29*

Gooood

### 4/5 — Arcade type

*2023-08-22*

Good concept but the hungry monetazing everything and the poor platform saving setting ruined the fun.

### 4/5 — Good but slow progress

*2023-08-05*

Finally a game that gets the level of ads right, no forced ads but if you want to progress at any speed you have to watch an ad at the end of every level but that’s not to overwhelming

### 5/5 — Account lost

*2024-09-15*

Great game! It just hurt because I lost all my money and info not creating an account !

### 5/5 — Servers issues

*2024-07-29*

Imma start off by saying the game is great. The only issue I have really is the server. My Wi-Fi connection is completely fine but for some reason it keeps saying server error.

### 5/5 — Fun but…

*2024-06-27*

Pls some freeze and a bug where I can’t edit my name

Fun game

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2023-11-05*

This is a fun game. Challenging to play.  Would be even easier if the joystick was easier to control the vehicle movement.

### 5/5 — Good

*2023-11-04*

Nice

### 5/5 — Love

*2023-09-20*

Love this game. Hope more events coming soon

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2023-09-19*

What a brilliant game. First of all, starting off with the graphics on my promax screen, it looks absolutely magnificent.

The gameplay is smooth, the rewards you get for completing the missions is fair and overall it’s an absolutely outstanding game as an iOS app.

I can honestly predict that this game will be an absolute legend smasher, as it is just brilliant in all areas of the game.

Thank you to the developers for what is truly an amazing game. I have no doubt that this will be one of those games that get used at Apple events to showcase what can truly be achieved on iOS 17.

I have no affiliation to the makers of this game or anyone who was involved in the creation of this game.

In my opinion, everyone should have this on their iOS devices.
