### 1/5 — Game freezes up after 2nd episode !!!

*2015-08-23*

Give me my money back!!!!!!

### 2/5 — Disappointingly short and easy

*2018-12-05, version 1.28*

My kids love Pocket God and I love turn-based strategy games, so I thought this might be something fun for us all. The first match or two were super easy, which is to be expected as you’re learning the controls, but then it never got harder. 

The last level I thought was just my first boss fight but then the game ended. The objective for that level wasn’t clear and neither was the boss, who was almost indistinguishable from an infantry soldier. I killed the boss because he was between me and the bases I needed to capture but it turned out I didn’t need to capture them. Game over. I won. Wait, what?

There is no enemy AI AFAIK, the enemies just spawn in response to what you have in a predictable rock-paper-scissors format that’s easy to plan for. Once spawned, they run right right at you, which is also easy to plan for. So on every level I know what the enemy is going to do, how it’s going to do it, and where it’s going to be.

Needs more levels, more troop options, more nuance to what beats what than a Roshambo that obliterates your enemies, and a better AI. Smaller, faster played boards would have also been nice. The (false) boast of 10 hours of gameplay is largely based on how long it takes to setup your board and advance.

### 2/5 — Two stars

*2016-03-18, version 1.28*

Not worth it you can't customize your name the hard to control especially if you have fat fingers good luck tapping the buttons.

### 2/5 — My least favorite pocket god game

*2016-01-01, version 1.28*

Ok we all loved the original pocket god, journey to Uranus was okay pocket god comics were cool but this is terrible I started off the game and I still can't get the hang of the controls plus it's WAY to hard I sat bolt creative should've been working on update 49 instead of this crap (plus it's a huge waste of money) 2 stars though because bolt creative did some amazing things with pocket god

### 3/5 — Shorter landians turns

*2015-12-31, version 1.28*

Make the landians turn shorter

### 4/5 — Love this Game

*2018-03-01, version 1.28*

I really enjoy this game: The only things I wish were in this game are a level editor and the ability to pit two AI's against eachother.

### 5/5 — Cant find

*2020-04-26, version 1.28*

I cannot fine anybody to play i internet

### 5/5 — Yes yes yes!!!

*2015-08-29, version 1.0.0*

This game is amazing! If you like Advance Wars even a little bit you need to try this game. Addicting single player campaign, skirmish maps, and multiplayer. I'm having a lot of fun with this. Thanks dev's for mashing up two great worlds and giving us this addicting turn based strategy game. Loving it! Hopefully more levels/chapters in the future. 👍

### 5/5 — Rawr

*2015-08-20, version 1.0.0*

I love it so much!
