### 4/5 — It logs me off

*2026-07-26*

Great but when I am playing a battle it stops working

### 4/5 — Good game

*2025-08-12*

good game but could do with some improvments to the ships like maybe planes and AA coud added along with aircraft carriers

**Developer response:** Hello! We value your opinion and will work on making the game better. Please feel free to share your ideas via email - support@xdevs.ltd

### 4/5 — Great creativity of game

*2025-07-17*

The game is amazing! I love it it’s super fun to play! But I have gotten bored of it. Would be nice to add more game modes. Having one seems to repetitive. Very Good game!!

**Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for your feedback. We are always happy to hear ideas on how to improve the game. Please send your suggestions to - support@xdevs.ltd

### 2/5 — I do not recommend it

*2025-07-10*

You won't earn silver in the game to upgrade the ship. The game is monotonous. There are four square maps that are shot through by paying players. Paid magical ships that destroy the most powerful battleship with a single shot. 
There are more interesting and dynamic naval battle games, especially the paid ones.

**Developer response:** Hello! We are disappointed the game didn’t meet your expectations. Please let us know what specifically caused your dissatisfaction so we can improve it.

### 2/5 — Eigentlich nicht schlecht......

*2025-03-04*

die Grafik ist nicht überwältigend, aber für mich reichts. Am Anfang macht´s noch Spaß, man kommt aber bald an die Grenzen, wo der Spaß aufhört. Man wird nach einigen Spielrunden nicht mehr umhin kommen, für Geld Verbesserungen zu kaufen, um überhaupt noch mitzuhalten und nicht nur als Zielscheibe zu dienen. Das geht dann schnell mal über 100 €. Was aber gar nicht geht und absolut realitätsfern ist, das gegnerische Schiff fährt 5 x so schnell wie deines ( auch kein Anfängerboot), hat eine viel größere Reichweite, schießt mit "roter" Munition welche viel höheren Schaden verursacht und abermals Geld kostet. Und was dem Ganzen noch die Krone aufsetzt , der Gegner ist dann auch noch unverwundbar. Sorry, aber das geht gar nicht. Des weiteren ist nicht gut, dass man sehr oft sehr viel stärkeren Gegnern zugelost wird, wo man absolut keine Chance hat und von vorneherein klar ist, dass man verlieren wird, auch hat man keine Möglichkeit das Schiff erst nach der Zuweisung von Gegnern auszuwählen, was eine taktische Maßnahme wäre, aber eben nicht möglich ist. Einmal habe ich an einem Gefecht teilgenommen, in welchem ein überlegener Gegner ALLEINE 19 von 24 Gegner versenkt hat und dass innerhalb kürzester Zeit. Da bleibt der Spaß definitiv auf der Strecke. Ich werden nun meine letzten Käufe noch verballern und dann aussteigen.

**Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We strive to continuously improve the game and would be happy to know what exactly can be improved.

### 3/5 — Strange game

*2025-01-13, version 6.03.02*

You play, make progress and achieve a rank. Your foes and allies are also growing with you and you are all at about the similar level. However, when your younger brother from another computer just starts playing this game, starting with the rank of junior sailor, you will be surprised to find among his rivals and allies players with the same nicknames as in your game, under your player profile, but only in the rank of sailors! 
Sometimes you can see how almost all enemy ships simultaneously turn on the same attack or defense options, sometimes inappropriate and untimely. Bots?
In pursuit of money the developers offer options with which a VIP player's ship can shoot through the entire game map. Ordinary players simply become a target for this superstar's statistics, and your ship will not last even a few seconds against such official cheating.

### 4/5 — Good game!

*2024-12-18*

This game is better than the Naval Armada of the same developer. The gameplay is interesting, ships with great functionality in the basic configuration. A huge number of improvements, both paid and free.

### 4/5 — Dauerhaft fesselndes Spiel

*2024-11-09*

Schiffe versenken in einer Arena, gegen echte Spieler gemischt mit Computergegnern. Mir macht es viel Spaß und es wird nicht langweilig, da es seeeeeeehr lange dauert, bis man seine Schiffe fertig ausgebaut hat. Das ist manchmal zu langsam, andererseits erreicht man auch nach Monaten immer wieder Verbesserungen, sodass man mehr Reichweite, mehr Stärke, bessere Waffen etc. erhält. 

Es gibt einige Übersetzungsfehler in der deutschen Version und manchmal kleine Bugs. Aber man kann den Support anschreiben und nach einigen Tagen erhalte ich auch immer Antwort. Die Bugs werden meistens behoben, stören aber das Spielen nicht. 

Die Käufe in der App finde ich zu teuer. Jeder kann aber selbst bestimmen, ob und wieviel Geld er ausgibt. Am besten kauft man Dinge nur, wenn sie reduziert sind. Es wird alles hin und wieder günstiger angeboten. 

In einer Flotte zu spielen bringt mir Spaß, da man von der Forschung (Verbesserung) in der Flotte profitiert, und mit anderen sich in Schlachten verbünden kann. 

Die einzelnen Schlachten dauern nur wenige Minuten, ideal um das Spielen zeitlich zu begrenzen, wenn ich nur wenig Zeit dafür habe.

**Developer response:** Hello! We appreciate your feedback and will strive to improve our game, taking into account your comments. Thank you for your feedback!

### 3/5 — 兵装に問題あり

*2024-10-21, version 6.01.00*

戦艦に魚雷や機雷敷設が可能だったり、駆逐艦に爆雷がなかったり、要するに全艦種、ほとんど兵装が同じなのは不自然。
その一方で、戦艦の主砲の威力が弱すぎたり、レベ上げした駆逐艦がどの艦種よりも最強になってしまうとか、バランスに問題がある。

例えば Royal Match とか、ある種の広告で、広告の最終画面でフリーズしてしまい、復帰できなくなり、当然、「報酬」も得られなくなることがある。このアプリ、または広告側のいずれに問題があるかはわからないが、再起動しなければならない。改善を求める。

### 4/5 — Very good but to long to load

*2024-09-03*

The game is very good but takes more than 5mins to load on old versions of ipad

**Developer response:** Hi! We understand you might be facing difficulties. Please email us at support@xdevs.ltd so we can better understand the situation.

### 3/5 — LAGS A LOT

*2024-08-04*

GOOD GAME BUT CAN GET VERY LAGGY

**Developer response:** Hello! We are actively working on resolving issues. For updates on your problem, please email us at support@xdevs.ltd.

### 5/5 — It is skibididi

I’ve never seen any game with a larger gyat than this. Level 20000.

### 1/5 — Incompréhensible

*2026-06-21*

Je jeu se lance puis se ferme a la moitié de la barre de lancement MacBook Air M4

### 1/5 — Don’t work

After update stopped working

### 1/5 — Boring

*2025-07-05*

meh

**Developer response:** Hi! We understand you may have feedback. Please let us know what specifically is wrong with the game so we can fix it.

### 1/5 — Ingiocabile e Pubblicità di Royal Match

*2025-03-27, version 6.03.02*

Se gli avversari hanno speso REALMENTE 300€ per le loro navi, mentre te (ovviamente) non butti i soldi così, non c’è partita. Una tua cannonata piena gli toglie il 3% della vita, mentre una loro ti toglie il 60% della tua. Non è divertente così, è semplicemente ingiocabile. E poi tra una partita e l’altra, se vi capita la pubblicità di Royal Match, sappiate che può durare anche due minuti, terminati i quali si apriranno altre finestre di quel gioco.

### 1/5 — Rouge employee/mod/Dev

*2025-03-16, version 6.03.02*

You have a mod/dev by the name of OPerator.XDev on discord that believes the rules don’t apply to them. Including bullying.      I’ve contacted support but he is in support.  You have an infection and it’s him.  I have proof and plan to involve Apple support.

### 1/5 — Do not waste your time

*2024-07-11*

Played for about 3 weeks. Quickly learned how to upgrade & move up in ranks, without spending $$. Recently, despite winning battles & causing substantial damage, I was unable to gather any silver. In fact, I was losing it. Just noticed a couple of features I had purchased on my only sub had been arbitrarily removed. All done. Deleted game

**Developer response:** Hello! It's a pity to hear that you didn't like our game. However, we are still continuing to work on updates. Please describe what you did not like, so we will take it into account while preparing future updates. We are looking forward to your interesting suggestions and useful comments. You can contact us through your Personal Account.

### 1/5 — Вылетает

*2024-02-10, version 5.08.05*

Частые вылеты, и урезают боевое снаряжение…играть не возможно,переименуйте корабли в подлодки

### 1/5 — Guns not moving

*2023-10-28, version 5.07.00*

All guns stayed still except the free tier 1 ship. No matter how I aim my cursor the guns don't move at all, in a tier 3 battle ship with 4 turrets and can only use the one at the front or back one at a time and aim by pointing the ship at the target.

### 1/5 — HORRIBLE

*2023-10-25*

It’s just another pay to win game. Fun for a few “runs” (and of course you have to wait for this or that. OR FOR JUST 99 cents WE WILL SPEED IT UP!) so to speak, but why waste your time? I’ve taken the time to write this review so that you don’t have to.

**Developer response:** Hello! You can play our game absolutely free. Premium options give some advantages, but do not give victory in the battles.

### 1/5 — Don’t play this game

*2023-06-26*

This game is always full of bugs and problems kicks you out of games steals your gold .
It is set up for players who been playing for a long time not new players .
The mods are corrupt ban people they don’t like while letting other players do what they like 
The points system changes on a daily bases . Do not play

**Developer response:** Hello! Please contact support - support@xdevs.ltd - to analyze the problem. Make sure you have included the name of the game and your data (server, nickname, level and id)

*2025-10-06*

I highly recommend Navy War! It’s a great game with amazing graphics! It is pretty easy to control on most devices!
