### 4/5 — Unexpected Gem

*2024-01-01*

Downloaded this game to kill time, but I actually enjoy it more than I expected. It has a simplicity to it that gives me a perfect break from the everyday hassle; except in the relaxing way I wanted from other mobile games that almost feel like a daily chore now.

### 4/5 — Fun little game.

*2023-11-29*

However, it keeps telling me that I’m not connected to the Internet when I have full signal, 4G, sometimes 5G, and fast Wi-Fi at home (200gb fiber optic connection). It also started an update late Sunday night, and I have not been able to logon since. 

Bumped up the stars because it’s back. Still keeps telling me there is no internet ever so often. When it does, I have to close it out and restart.

### 3/5 — Needs Improvement

*2023-10-29*

Reached the end of the 3rd planet and was trapped in this weird cliff arena place with nowhere else to go and no enemies spawning. Progress bar was at 81% but I couldn’t go further because of the cliffs or backtrack because of an invisible wall. The only option was to quit the level (which prevents rewards). 

The gameplay up to that point was okay. The midpoint boss for that planet was surprisingly fun. There are just too many other games with the same general structure to have such awkward animations/hit boxes and progress-destroying bugs. 

Why does quitting a level not earn rewards gained up to that point in the level? Also, why do red walls (prevent going backwards) appear behind the character with enemies still spawning on the other side of them? This causes enemy drops to fall out of reach and needlessly hampers mobility.

### 3/5 — Zombie boss on Arena Level 2 is practically impossible to beat

*2023-10-25*

This wouldn’t be much of a challenge if the zombie boss on Arena’s Level 2 didn’t spawn in a bombardment of high-health minions that keep swarming in. Can you please fix this boss fight because it’s literally impossible with the amount of high-health minions the zombie boss keeps throwing my way.

### 1/5 — Not connected to Internet

*2023-12-15*

Just writing this review in hopes that developers see it. Since their update last night the game now says I’m not connected to the internet and shuts down. Problem is that I am connected to the internet. Before this if I switched to another app while I was playing when I came back to the game it would say I wasn’t connected to the internet and I’d have to restart the game but now this is way worse. It would be nice if they had a way to send them messages about issues in the game but the web page that comes up when you click app support is useless. It’s just a picture of the game nothing else. So this is the only way to try to let them know there is an issue. Otherwise, I love this game and it would be 5 stars if I could play it. Maybe 4. 5 if they quit shutting the game down every other week for maintenance. Never had another game do that. Usually they just update it and the player basically doesn’t know the difference except that they have to hit update. Hopefully they will get it together because its a good game.

### 1/5 — Need to be fixed

*2023-11-28*

After the recent update the wont start. Keep saying their doing maintenance on the game. But it shows that their doing the update on November 27th. Which was yesterday. So now I can’t play the game after I invested a lot of time into it. The game Devs need to fix problems

### 3/5 — Difícil

*2023-12-19*

Muy difícil para conseguir subir de nivel

### 3/5 — Not connected to the internet

*2023-12-05*

Game play is good.  The issue is that if you set it down (while at work) and it dcs from the internet then you have to completely reload the game.  Only game I have seen do this.  Fix that and it’s 4-5 stars…

### 3/5 — Kicked out

*2023-11-25*

Don’t get me wrong I am enjoying the game… but there has been at least 3 times where I have been kicked out after I watch an add from one of the pink/purple add chests during campaign game play and this kinda makes me not want to continue if I keep getting kicked out and then when logging back in I get put back at the check point… please fix

### 5/5 — Great game

*2023-12-27*

I changed my rating from 1 to 5 stars. It really is a fun game. I’ll elaborate later it’s really late and I’m too tired to think. Just try it out. You’ll like it! 

Update: The issue below was fixed and I figured out how to contact the developers through the settings.

### 5/5 — Great game

I absolutely love this game for long road-trips, overall it is just a really fun enjoyable game. It really helps with my ocd and adhd, it keeps me very occupied, and the gameplay is very smooth. Love this game!

### 5/5 — 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

OMG. So I just started this game today. One of my friends plays it to he also started and we both already absolutely 💯 love this game. One of the best games I have ever played. How my friend and I found the game was by an add that just came up and we thought it was just goin to be like any other space game. BUUUUT… NO this game is 🤩

### 5/5 — This game is so satisfying

*2023-10-25*

If u have a lot of power then when u fight enemies the sound of the kills is a lot

### 5/5 — My Personal Favorite Mobile Game

*2023-10-23*

This game isn’t perfect and the graphics aren’t the most impressive, but the graphics are good enough and the gameplay is simply addicting. 

Oh, and you can get almost anything you need for free with ads, but you’re never forced to watch ads (always optional).

Absolutely deserves 5 star for the upgrade system, gameplay, and how monetization doesn’t hurt free gameplay. Other mobile developers using ads should study this game.

### 4/5 — Fun, repeat, harder fun

*2024-02-11*

Had a review on here. It was favorable but disappeared for some reason. That being said this is a good game. A little repetitive as each level basically follows a set pattern they just get harder as you move along. You collect items such as weapons and uniforms that help you get stronger. The biggest problem I’ve found is there’s not much information as to how things work so you have to figure it out as you go along. Good thing is that it’s not super complicated so you can bumble along figuring it out as you go. There are a few things like  some crystals that you collect but, as of yet, don’t serve any purpose in the game. I’m hoping it’s part of some future addition to the game. I sent an email inquiring about them but was told they weren’t sharing that info with me. Excuse me for taking an interest. Anyway, I really like the game. It’s getting to the point the levels are too hard with my current equipment so I either have to shell out some dough or be in for the grind. That’s cool though. I don’t mind throwing in some loot for a well made game. If you like fairly simple games where you get to blast away at aliens, robots and such then you’ll like this game too. And you’re not bombarded with ads which is absolutely fantastic in todays game world! Thanks programming wizards for creating a fun way for me to blow my free time!

### 4/5 — Hidden gem

*2024-02-03, version 1.3.0*

This is a fantastic little game I’ve played many hours and so fare haven’t been any problems NO ads ether which is brilliant since every game I play is full of ads but not this game 👍 I gave 4-5 stars only because I think the shop is overpriced and a little ridiculous but other than that wicked little gem 💎
