I genuinely enjoy this game.

One of the first mobile games I played was phoenix two I still play it from time to time. When I saw this game on the App Store I was almost Instantly impressed by the visual design. I bought it and downloaded it and now I’m trying to unlock annihilation mode, I will probably buy the game on steam soon and I can’t wait for the next update to come out. I hope this game grows bigger and more levels are added.
