Please reduce the amount of turrets on level 20. Please. ### 3/5 — Starts out fun *2023-02-08, version 2.0.2* This games gets boring and repetitive quickly. ### 3/5 — Will be back I hope *2023-02-05, version 2.0.2* Loved the game but have not been able to play cause I get this one commercial that will not go away and even if I restart it still happens and happened in the middle of levels ### 2/5 — Obtrusive ads make game impossible to play *2023-02-04, version 2.0.2* I’d love to play the game but some cooking ad doesn’t have an X to close, no matter how many times app is reopened. Maybe work on how ads are displayed? This is amateur development stuff. ### 2/5 — In app purchase fraud! *2023-01-22, version 1.1.17* Great game! But I made two in app purchases and never receive what I purchased. Got both failed purchases back from Apple Pay. Foolishly tried a third purchase and received NOTHING! Do not make an in app purchase!!! ### 3/5 — Lost Coins *2022-12-30, version 1.1.16* Playing the gold challenge, it will crash the app and forces it to close around the 100,000 coin mark. This causes the coins not to be added but still uses an attempt. I’m out around 400,000 coins at this point because of this issue. Unfortunately there is no feature to contact support in the actual app. ### 3/5 — it’s ok *2022-12-14, version 1.1.15* The game is decent but I have a problem while I was playing a I saw a ad and then it wouldn’t let leave the ad ### 4/5 — Wow a good game from Voodoo *2022-10-29, version 1.0* Who would’ve thought you guys can actually make a decent game. Except you DIDN’T you just published it and another BETTER team made it. How about you guys stop advertising your crappy games and instead games like this?? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Just another Ad game *2023-02-12, version 2.0.2* You get an ad every 3 rounds. Very basic game. ### 1/5 — Fix the forced ad *2023-02-07, version 2.0.2* When you start to play the very first ad this game gets stuck on, some cooking game, it stays on there permanently, reinstalled six times. Only game out of twenty installed. 200 gigs left ### 1/5 — Can’t even play *2023-02-03, version 2.0.2* Game locked me in an ad and won’t let me play even after I close the app ### 1/5 — DONT BUY THIS GAME *2023-01-17, version 1.1.17* This is literally just a redo of the game ‘merge and shoot’ they just take your money and then delete the last game and start a new one…. Not a single thing changed between the two except the name. ### 1/5 — Forced ads *2023-01-16, version 1.1.17* Forced ads every other battle? Every three? Not sure, but really wish the store had a filter setting for forced so I never pick up any games with them. ### 1/5 — The game *2022-12-30, version 1.1.16* Truth be told, I love the game. I play it a lot, however I bought the battle pass, and money was taken from my card and it didn’t give me the pass, only the option to buy it again. I’ve tried reaching out to support but no response yet. ### 1/5 — Latest update killed my battle points *2022-11-20, version 1.1.14* After the last update, my battle points went from over 8000 to 3200. No explanation in the release notes, no way to contact the vendor or open a ticket. Just killed my desire to continue playing. ### 1/5 — Trash adds *2022-11-20, version 1.1.14* Forced adds ### 1/5 — Love it… *2022-11-13, version 1.1.12* But there’s way too many ads. Add a “NO ADS” button and I’ll give you 5 stars. ### 2/5 — Ad not letting me close it *2023-02-07, version 2.0.2* I really enjoy this game but I have been unable to play it recently because I keep getting this ad that pops up randomly when I’m in the middle of playing and it never lets me close it. It’s the same ad every time and it just stops me from playing. Ive waited for several minutes for an “X” to appear to close the ad but it never does. I tried looking for a way to contact support about it but couldn’t find any help so I guess I’ll just leave a review about it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Battle pass *2023-03-09, version 2.0.3* Absolutely love this game. But could use another 20 battle pass levels. You can get it completed within the first 2 1/2 days but still in love with this game. ### 5/5 — Add *2023-02-05, version 2.0.2* I love the gameplay, my only problem is that certain add won’t give me the X to get back to the game, so now I’m stuck in an ad unless I shutdown the game ### 5/5 — Nice *2023-01-14, version 1.1.17* This is a fun take on the genre. Cool to discover new mergers. ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2023-01-09, version 1.1.17* I bought the battle passes and am currently ranked #11 in the world. The game is actually fun and you get a lot out the battle pass for $5. Enough to get top 10 or higher in ranked. Im proof. That is literally all i bought. Also the game does not crash. Im over level 500. Get a better phone and stop crying. Ive not had one single crash. Iphone 13 pro max. Also you can pay to disable ads and it’s completely worth it. If you can’t afford that get off ur phone and get a job you brat. This is a great game. ### 5/5 — Can’t stop *2023-01-08, version 1.1.17* I can’t stop playing this game because it too fun! Reason why I download this game 1. I saw a ads about this game then I download it! 2. it looks fun! 3. I started to play this game! And How many type of block are there and how many type of cannon are there? And it need more update! 1. Add map editor! 2. Add co-op mode! Those are the 2 idea that I can think of! Keep up the great work! Also I saw 3 type of block so far! ### 5/5 — I love it *2022-12-15, version 1.1.15* It is a fun game overall and is really addicting ### 5/5 — Help me out *2022-11-25, version 1.1.14* How do I remove ads ### 5/5 — Best game aver! *2022-11-12, version 1.1.12* BEST GAME AVER ### 5/5 — I NEED UPDATES DADDY! *2022-10-27, version 1.0* Can’t Stop Play It XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD ### 4/5 — Ads *2022-11-24, version 1.1.14* Its a really good game indeed but there are so many ads like after every match there is an ads. Its not like I heat ads but I feel in this game there are so many. I would really love it if they reduced some of the ads cause they appear after every match.
