### 1/5 — Cool app

*2019-08-28, version 1.15*

Cool app but the adverts are so so annoying 😤

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2018-03-14, version 1.14*

To many adds... I like the game but will not watch adds continuously... I paid 1.99 to remove ads ... but it did not remove the constant ads during game play, now I will have to contact apple to get 1.99 back ... is on principle ... normally I wouldn't waste my time on 1.99

### 1/5 — Annoying money seeker game ever

*2017-11-03, version 1.14*

The game graphics are good, the game controls need some work, but it is ridiculous the amount of adds and ways of the creators are tryin to get money from you! It is beyond stupid! I am ok paying some money for good games, but this is ridiculous! Bye, bye just delete!

### 1/5 — TOO MANY ADS!!!

*2017-10-31, version 1.14*

I love this game but honestly its ridiculous the amount of ads they make you watch. The second thing is the fact that you die too damm quick bc they want you to watch more ads. 

If they could fix those two issues I would rate 5 stars

### 1/5 — Bad!

*2017-08-03, version 1.14*

The game is terrible. Ads pop up every 5 minutes and the difficulty level is to the max

### 1/5 — ADs.....

*2017-07-30, version 1.14*

Give an option to get ride of those darn ads!!!!

### 1/5 — Adds

*2017-07-23, version 1.14*

To many adds. Every 30 Seconds is 30 seconds of adds

### 1/5 — Fun game but broken in 3rd level

*2017-07-06, version 1.14*

No way to get past the giant sack thing after I kill it. Turrets keep re-spawning and there's no way to move forward???

Fun game - reminds me of old arcade games. Lot of fun - just wondering what's wrong here?

### 1/5 — Horrible controls

*2016-11-22, version 1.3*

The joystick type control is horrible. Already deleted it.

### 2/5 — No more hearts

*2017-04-15, version 1.10*

The explosions are a lot better and I like the new stage. But it took all the hearts away. The update says more "hearts more life" but it actually took all of them off. At least for apple devices.
