### 5/5 — Stop ads from randomly popping during gameplay.

*2026-08-03, version 1.208*

Everytime I start and more, I got an ad.

### 5/5 — 🫡🦾

### 1/5 — Ads

*2026-05-04, version 1.207*

Too many ads

### 3/5 — Ehh

*2026-04-23, version 1.207*

They limit how many levels you can play per day (including replays) but you can pay to unlock more plays if you want! And the ads are a nightmare. Game is fun, just burdened with poor decisions surrounding the app

### 5/5 — My favorite game in the App Store

*2026-04-10, version 1.207*

I’ve been playing this series for years!

### 5/5 — Beaten the game but did not complete all 150 objectives

*2026-02-27, version 1.207*

I beaten the game by beating the 50th mission and after that and I was not having all 150 mission medals and then I used a auto sniper rifle to get all 150 medals after 3 staring all 50 missions and got all 150 medals and got all weapons it took long and I couldn’t complete all objectives and also just fix the issue that i successfully sign in to online on survival with apple but it failed and some known ones such as the “shoot 10 enemy hats while running” objective not completing after I complete it and make sure you add 100 achievements just to let it be like major mayhem 1.

### 2/5 — So many ads and you can’t pay to get rid of them.

*2026-02-20, version 1.207*

I miss the old Mayhem.

### 5/5 — WHERE ARE YOU DEVELOPER?

*2026-02-11, version 1.207*

HELLO DEVELOPER WHERE ARE YOU NOW? WE WANT MAJOR MEYHEM 3.
ARE YOU WORKING IN MAJOR MEYHEM 3 OR WHAT? PLEASE ANSWER!!! BTW I LIKE YOUR ALL THE MAJOR MEYHEM GAMES.

### 2/5 — Ads galore

*2026-02-07, version 1.207*

As soon as I open the game, there’s an immediate ad playing. Then I click a level to play and before going in, another ad. That’s pretty pathetic.
