When I activate this skill while I’m holding a weapon, all it does take away the weapon and the extra attacking range you typically get doesn’t happen, so at that point it’s just cosmetic. I know this isn’t a very big issue but still please fix it. ### 3/5 — A good game but... *2021-03-06* Downloaded for the nostalgia, and I gotta say the way they do ads now is annoying. I get it, apps need to have ads to stay free. That's not the issue . The issue is that between every game, there's at least 1 ad. I'll click the close (x) button at the top left for facebook ads, and they'll REMAIN on my screen. Sometimes tapping numerous times highlights the ad rather than closing it. This in conjunction with the black screen "ads" that just make your screen black and have no close (x) button make the game go from fun to annoying extremely quickly. ### 4/5 — Good *2021-02-11* Super fun gameplay, lots of ads tho ### 4/5 — So Fun *2020-03-01* This Game is SO SO FUN but it glitches ### 3/5 — Fun but there’s a seriously overlooked problem *2020-01-30* I’ve probably played this game longer than anyone else and I used to always enjoy it. After a lot of time I eventually got my hands on the fighting style CQC and it was awesome at first however it’s so called “special ability” is a problem. Turning all the enemies into grey enemies isn’t the issue here, the issue is TURNING THE ENTIRE SCREEN GREY! It only makes the enemies turn grey for a short while so when time is up the screen will stay grey and I can’t see many of the enemies. The amount of times I’ve died from invisible and multi hit enemies (not brawlers) is astounding. Please stop changing the color of the screen. Also can you fix the fire on hard mode? At least give us a way to dodge it, it messes up my combos. Thank you ### 4/5 — Not what it used to be *2019-07-10* I finally revisited this game and now the bosses fly backwards until you kill them on the last hit But the game is still fun ### 3/5 — Glitch *2019-06-30* After completing a stage or something it displays an ad but the ad doesn’t work and the game freezes on a black screen ### 3/5 — Great game but, many problems *2019-04-28* For me, I experience many crashes mostly when an ad pops up or I start a level or something. It’s really annoying even though I really like this game. I recommend to many but, the over abundance of ads is annoying and the fact that offline mode is removed entirely which is sad. There should be an option for online and offline since some people might not have as much storage and some people might. Offline would just be a download of all the data and if internet is there, ads could pop up. Or you could download the add onto the offline mode. Internet access would still be available in offline to purchase and stuff it would just be different. Please consider this as I really like this game and want it to improve. Thank you for reading and have a good day! ### 2/5 — $99 gold packs to play a $5 Steam game! *2019-02-03* Fun game but you hit the pay wall really early. Game much harder than the PC version. I'm not buying gold packs or monthly subscriptions. I don't even want to get into how many ads you have to sit through between battles. Please offer premium version if you want my money. They don't even tell you how much the gold cost in game: you have to purchase it and you find out the cost when Apple requires you to confirm purchase (you can choose to cancel at that point) ### 3/5 — Love/Hate *2018-11-23, version 5.03* Let me start off with the positive things about this game. I love the controls. They’re tight and responsive, and it makes the combat feel smooth and satisfying. I also love the variety of modes they give you. It gives the game more flavor. However there are also some negatives that are weighing it down. For starters, ads. It feels like the developers are constantly trying to shove as many down the players throat as they can. Once you get out of a level. Ad. Switching screens. Ad. Getting revived. Ad. It’s acceptable to a point, but it can be too much. Plus, while there’s variety to the game, there isn’t so much you can do for your character. Maybe I haven’t played it enough, but it feels like the progression is relatively slow and all the accessories and fighting styles are overpriced. As a result, you have to grind. And grinding just isn’t fun. I love this game. It’s exciting and refreshing. But it can be so much better if these problems get fixed. Thank you. ### 2/5 — So excellent but..... *2018-11-20, version 5.03* I’ll begin with the attractive truth, I love this game. Sweet fluid simplicity in a very attractive dress. If my sloppy metaphors aren’t proof to me this game is the standard I hold other games to, in the same genre of course. I could go on and on about the accuracy and smoothness of motions this game has but I won’t, reason being I’ve run into an issue that gets in the way of my masterful kung foo beat downs. I’ve played on both a galaxy 8 and iPhone 6 and ran into the issue of not being able to advance pass the fourth floor of the infinite tower. I clear the floor almost every time (false modesty) but when the last unfortunate stick fool goes down the game just keeps going. No more enemies appear, the timer freezes, the pause button does not work, and yet I can attack both ways till I’m bored and am forced to close the game. Does anyone else have this issue or know of a fix? 5 star game but I don’t get the whole game so am left with 3-4 start experience. ### 4/5 — It’s good but there are a few bugs *2018-10-07* I’ve been playing this game for a very long time and I have to say it’s very fun, although there are a few bugs which include for me on floor 27 of the infinite tower Every time I beat it I don’t progress and I’m left on an empty scree with my character in the arenas but with no enemies, and one general complaint is that for the longest time offline did not work I’m at least glad it actually works now, I’m just annoyed it’s an entirely different profile. ### 2/5 — Two Gigantic Bugs *2018-09-19* I am a huge fan of this game. However, there are two detrimental bugs to this game that really need to be addressed. 1) When you complete a level or die in Infinite Tower, the app freezes and all you can do is restart the app. Basically, Infinite Tower doesn’t work. 2) In Survival if you reach a score higher than 99,999,999 the game won’t register your score—you won’t get the silver and XP rewards AND your score doesn’t even show up on the competitive board. ### 2/5 — What happened? *2018-07-25* This is a great game on the computer, but I can’t believe how negative I feel about this mobile version. It has lost the charm of the game it hails from and the only saving grace is my positive experience playing the real version. I’m just hoping it will get better once I grind past the horrible “pay to play” barrier. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even start *2020-07-27* Been stuck on the start screen for upwards of 10 minutes and still haven’t gotten in. How am I supposed to have any hope for this game? ### 1/5 — Gold problem *2019-03-15* HEY!! I PURCHASED SOME GOLD AND I DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY AFTER THE PURCHASE!! THE HELL?!? ### 1/5 — Broken... *2018-03-21* Though I’ve played the game on other devices and it’s worked fine in the past, the game won’t load now... good game if you can play it though. ### 1/5 — What is with these ads? *2018-02-09* Everytime I complete a level or die in survival I get an ad. Now I know people complain about ads on every game or website that has them. So let me try to bring you into my situation. You are playing survival and you beat the high score putting you into 1st place but you decide to go even further. You die and don’t have any gold to spend so you watch an ad to keep going. You watch the ad then you get the INSTALL button and the restart button. OH but what’s this? No X button....really?I decide to try to put myself on top of the leaderboard for an ad to take it all away from me? Everything I did for nothing? THIS IS ABSOLUTE BS!!! NONE OF THE ADS HAVE THE X BUTTON!!! FIX THIS NOW OR GET RID OF THE ADS!!! ### 1/5 — Horribly Exploitative *2018-02-03* So I have the mobile version and PC version. Here are some key differences. On PC, I bought the game on sale for a dollar. On mobile, a dollar won't get you through the first 20 stages, not to mention beating each of those 20 stages 10 to 20 times to actually get anything from them. On PC, Every level except defender levels (they throw stuff at you one or two at a time) gives you 5 to 10 hits before you fail the level. On Mobile, you're lucky to even get 1 WITH high end equipment and skills. On PC, you unlock things by going through the game, and skills are used automatically. On Mobile, Skills have a very small chance to activate once during the level. This can be as low as 1% of the time and as high as 15% of the time, after their arbitrary kill cooldown starts (this means you have to kill... say 50 enemies before the skills HAVE A CHANCE to activate) and when you trigger them (deflect color is triggered by getting hit). On Mobile, over 80% of all touchable things in the game lead to microtransactions (I actually bothered to count), and every failed level (again you have to be perfect on every level to not fail) you watch at the least 2 ads and at the most 7. Don't buy this game. It's not good. Buy the PC version for a dollar and unlock everything for free without spending 90% of your playtime watching ads. ### 1/5 — 👌🏼👌🏼 *2017-11-28* Won't load 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 ### 2/5 — They ruined this game *2022-08-08* This game used to be awesome. It was a simple idea but it was done very well and when the difficulty amped up you could easily get sucked into it. Now they’ve added in a ton of micro transactions and even make you watch ads in between levels. The core gameplay is still there but you feel like you have to sift through so much crap to get to it. Don’t bother with it. ### 2/5 — Okay *2019-08-10* It’s serviceable. It doesn’t quite pack the punch of the pc version and some of the magic is lost due to the gaming model chosen by the creators. What annoys me to no end however is the excessive ads present. I don’t mind watching an ad every 5 minutes but when you are subjected to 20 unskippable ads every round you play it becomes unbearable. Ease up on the ads just a little. ### 2/5 — Scam *2019-06-15* In app purchases do nothing. Basically takes your money. ### 2/5 — Nothing changed *2019-03-03* This latest update didn’t fix any of the bugs from the last version. The game still mostly crashes every time an ad pops up after finishing a stage, survival mode, or during the “Watch ad to regain health” during Infinity Tower. This makes it very difficult to complete Daily Missions because your progress is always reset after a crash. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — So incredible *2023-10-08* I love this its like those games where you have to tap tiles to the music but with murdering stickmen and punching there hearts out and smashing it into another person this is an amazing game the only thing is the blood id does look “cartoonish “ but if your gonna have blood in a game like this you should be able to turn blood off in settings another thing i love is how smooth the transitions are from left to right and when u hit a perfect combo ohh its so satisfying but when you mess up lets just say i lost alot of phones when i chucked them as hard as i could but its so addictive i keep playing (after i buy a new phone) over all i love this game. ### 5/5 — Classic *2021-04-23* This game was a childhood classic for me, I remember when it was originally on the Xbox console as a indie title and I loved it ever since. I recommend you play the console version but it’s really cool to be able to play on the go mobile. 5 star indie action game definitely download it. ### 5/5 — I NEVER SEEN A GAME LIKE THIS *2021-02-27* This is the best game i IN The 🌍 world all the games successfully are so bad only this game is the best game ever I hate temple run it is so boring 🤢 but I love this game ### 5/5 — Insane game *2020-08-29* The best animations EVER! I give this game a 5 star GOOD MUSIC AND ANIMATIONS :0 ### 5/5 — Time tested! *2019-07-15* My Apple XS has lost all of its new feel, and just when I was getting ready to put it down and find something else to do, One Finger Death Punch. This game is the cure for the summer time blues. Thank you stick man! This game is the ultimate time killer and it still holds the belt in my mind. I have had 3 or 4 phones over the past couple years, and this game some how this keeps making the cut for me. Time tested by me again and again. If your tired of your phone, this game will bring some excitement back to you and your phones relationship. RAD!! ### 5/5 — Love the game but I have an idea *2019-04-24* So for some of the story mood we know we have to go through it to get items I just wanna know if we get perfect in a story mode run would we be able to get 2 turns counted instead of just one I believe getting a prefect in the game should be more rewarding especially if it’s a difficult or boss stage. Also there’s this nasty bug in stage boss mode where, when I’m fighting some of the colored enemies they tend to slide back away from me out of screen view then as I proceed to chase they speed up and with no reaction time hit me instantly ### 5/5 — Love the game fix tank boss fight *2019-01-30* The tank boss fight as you progress gets more and more hard you can’t focus on the little chain thing in the ground and then the cannon balls it takes to long to kill and is really hard to do so make it so the chain thing dosent have so many points to attack to destroy it thanks ### 5/5 — Joy *2018-12-18* Great fun, great action, just great in general, maybe better than the pc version ### 5/5 — Cool *2018-11-09* Its fun ### 5/5 — Love the game, but... *2018-07-21* I love this game! I played it nonstop when I first got it. However, I actually abandoned this game a few years ago and actually started up again today. Because of this I don’t really remember the use of equipment in game and wish there was a tutorial for return players. Also I trued our the endless tower mode but it seems to be broken as once I got to the 4th floor the game would stay on that flor until I reset the game. Overall I love the game but I hope what I said is taken into consideration. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
