### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-08-15, version 6.4.22*

Really fun game, one problem is that I can get stuck on levels forever, great game overall though.

### 2/5 — Fun at first

*2026-08-06, version 6.4.22*

Fun game at first, but the intermediate levels make getting to advanced levels stupidly difficult. Fun, until a wall, then it’s just not fun anymore. Just my opinion.

Seriously you hit a wall not far into the game and its insane. Not worth your time.

### 5/5 — Good Times

*2026-05-23, version 6.4.22*

### 5/5 — Solid

*2026-02-14, version 6.4.22*

Fun

### 4/5 — Great, but requires a lot of grinding

*2026-02-11, version 6.4.22*

Title says all but this, the heroes locked behind the paywall is sooo annoying!
