And I was right. This game is super addictive with tons of upgrades and features to keep you hooked. I do have some suggestions to make this game even better. You could have multiple different little “specimens” that you can unlock, each with different skills. Also, I had an evolution idea. I was thinking a couple different potions that increased speed and or decrease damage. Thanks you for your time! ### 5/5 — Funny and fun game *2022-01-18, version 1.0* I think this game is great and it is kinda funny because of the guys your are and how he talks ### 5/5 — This is a great game, because. . . *2021-10-11, version 1.0* The overall design is simple, but also very creative. The small creature you play as, which is basically a shell-less turtle, is a good character in my opinion because if it were more complicated, the visual changes of the creature from power-ups would seem lesser. I also like the idea of the scientists’ design: boxes with arms, legs, and faces. The fact that they’re actually made of flesh is… interesting, to say the least. I also think the pricing on the upgrades in the store are pretty fair. It makes it a lot less painful, not having to save up on coins without spending for a while. The game is also very time-consuming, so if you want a game to use for passing the time, this is perfect. This game is overall just really good. ### 5/5 — Good is *2021-08-10, version 1.0* Good. Just downright good ### 5/5 — I miss this :D *2021-07-23, version 1.0* Are used to play this game a lot but then I forgot what it was called and never played it and when I found out was happy ### 5/5 — Hats *2021-05-28, version 1.0* The hats are to hard to get and that is what puts their other game arrow war on top ### 5/5 — Beautiful *2021-05-18, version 1.0* Very good and it’s good that’s all play it NOWWW PLAY ITTTT ### 5/5 — 와.. *2021-03-24* 와 완전 재밌네 중독성도있고 ### 5/5 — Giuoco bello *2020-08-27, version 1.0* Wov giuco blexxixximmo ### 5/5 — Five stars *2020-07-25, version 1.0* Way better than that trash raid shadow legends ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I bought planetary supply *2019-07-19, version 1.0* And I didn’t get it plz give me it ### 2/5 — Very good *2025-07-08, version 1.18* Very good ### 3/5 — Much Potential *2022-01-25* I like the Art Style and the Gameplay, But the things you Buy are almost useless as the Improvement is way to small and it‘s taking ages to progress in the Game. ### 3/5 — DRIVING ME MAD!!! *2019-08-14, version 1.0* This “glitch” or something is so annoying! So let’s say I get 3 box’s Kay? The third box I try and open but it’s says I’ve exceeded the limit of 20! When it’s my THIRD box that day. Please fix this, it’s really getting on my nerves ### 4/5 — I like it *2025-10-23, version 1.19* I like the game it’s cute fun and reminds me of those flash games I played before. However the boxes for hats and stuff doesn’t work ### 4/5 — Great cute game *2024-01-06, version 1.1* Easy fun and cute, excellent time killer ### 4/5 — 아 제발요 *2023-05-05* 재밌는데...모자 모으는 맛이나 능력 올리는 맛이랑 스킬 윤빨로 멀리가는곳도 좋은데.. 광고를 봐야 상자가 열리게 해놓고 광고가 너무 적잖아요! 10개도 안 봤는데 광고가 없다네요...그냥 광고가 없을 때에는 광고안봐도 상자 열 수 있게 해주셨으면 좋겠네여 ### 4/5 — Great but crashes *2022-07-26, version 1.0* Great game however, the ads keep crashing my games and I’m at a high enough level that it’s been 20 minutes of gathering coins and once it crashes it’s gone! Augh ### 4/5 — Great but way too hard *2020-06-24, version 1.0* This is a great game because the graphics are good and the gameplay is perfect but it’s also very hard because when your right in front of the shotgun humans, They just shoot you at the last second. Its really hard for new players and i advise you fix it. ### 4/5 — Amazing game but.. *2019-10-21, version 1.0* Cool game everything works perfectly except the resolution of the screen. Does not work with IPhone X+ phones because it does not correctly fit the screen. I have to hit all the way top left to pause the screen where the buttons aren’t located. Boxes should also drop more and more abilities!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This game is simply the best *2025-07-01, version 1.18* These games are amazing make sure to checkout SyHyeon’s other games 😁👍 ### 5/5 — Wonderful Game one complaint *2024-11-28, version 1.17* I really like this game and I know I’m really late but why can’t you magnet the big pieces of flesh it makes me sad😔 they will still go to you but once their behind it can’t reach. ### 5/5 — This game is great! *2024-11-17, version 1.17* I play for 4 hour and my phone was at 50% and I didn’t want to plug it in because I was to busy playing this game and my phone died while in the middle of the game and I was at 683M then I got a new phone and kinda forgot about it but I found it and so I redownloaded it ### 5/5 — Eins a Sahnekuchen *2024-11-05* Ich habe mir dieses Spiel schon vor 3 Jahren heruntergeladen und seitdem immermal regelmäßig gespielt. Das Spiel hat eine Einfache Steuerung und braucht trotzdem ein bisschen Eingewöhnungszeit und macht dann ne Zeitlang auch sehr Spaß . Vielleicht verliert man nach ein paar stunden das Interesse, aber findet es bestimmt irgendwann wieder gut. Ich mag es sehr. Perfekt für lange Autofahrten. ### 5/5 — Che gioco fantastica! *2024-08-05, version 1.15* Non serve WI-FI e può giocare! ### 5/5 — Rating *2023-12-10, version 1.1* Love this game! ### 5/5 — Game cool *2023-11-19, version 1.1* I like the game it fun when I played with me cousins I liked the game ### 5/5 — ONE OF THE BEST!!! *2023-03-13, version 1.0* THIS is the best time consuming game its really fun and i like the topic its cool with the little dinosaur and meat, i have 1very small problem ITS JUST SELF-CONTROLED ads not ones every 6 seconds, so i love this game alot ### 5/5 — 😳 *2023-01-17, version 1.0* BELLIXXISMO SIUU ### 5/5 — Love this game *2022-12-10, version 1.0* Derp man --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
