### 4/5 — Great game but Facebook doesn’t work

*2022-11-27, version 1.39.1*

I played this game for years and because of that, my account was very good and I had spent money on it. Then one day when I tried to log into the account it told me Facebook was currently unavailable for the app. I was devastated I lost my account on this great game. I have tried for 2 years now to log back into my account but Facebook is always unavailable! Please fix this.

### 4/5 — Love it but one thing

*2021-02-09, version 1.39.1*

There was a game just like this but is gone and that made me so sad 😞 and it might never come back but this game makes me think about it I like it but if you made the old one bring  it back  please I miss it so much and I will be so happy

### 4/5 — Anyone a Slipknot fan?

*2020-03-08, version 1.38.0*

This is a very good game overall but the masked of the bosses are the exact same masks from the band Slipknot there album all hope is gone features the same masks as the game does, I find that very funny. Even in the pictures of the game the mask of the guy in the final picture is Joey jordisan with the punisher mask

### 3/5 — Great for downtime, but kinda pay to win.

*2020-03-03, version 1.38.0*

I’m just writing this quick message since the game is great; however playing multiplayer battles kinda is terrible since people who purchase the actually “named characters” are practically over powered. Overall, it’s still a great game.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2019-04-19, version 1.30.1*

Great game to kill spare time.  Plenty of things to do so far without having to spend cash.  Well balanced as long as you play right and have a little patience unlike some other games.

### 4/5 — Somethings I want changed

*2019-03-27, version 1.30.0*

Stop giving players easy opponents if they have a whole army set out to get a single guy. Don’t to give hard elite team in battles, give them a pretty decent amount of soldiers and high ranking levels, also maybe give soldiers amounts of intelligence. It could change the stories, give them more kinds of personalities, and possibly have them remember who to attack based on experience. Overall, it's truly a simple and fun experience for players around the world.

**Developer response:** Hi Commander!

Thanks for the input, we've transferred your suggestions to those who can make something about it. Please tell us more if you have some thoughts!

Keep trooping!

### 5/5 — Infinite loading

*2019-03-19, version 1.29.4*

It want update version, but nothing to update and game not opening, seems infinite loading, if you fix it will be 5 stars because game is great

### 5/5 — You need to add more

*2019-03-18, version 1.29.4*

If you guys make an update that has more unique enemies and more story mode challenges like a part two, that would be amazing!!

### 5/5 — Amazing Game

*2019-03-07, version 1.29.4*

I’ll keep it short this game is amazing. Super fun always wanna come back to play. Also has some funny humor in the game as well.

*Only thing I wish would implemented into the game is the ability to control your troops (like how you can control your troops in the missions) while fighting against another players troops.*

But other than that I love everything about the game.

### 5/5 — I’m confused but good game

*2019-01-23, version 1.29.3*

When I raid people have better weapons and levels but when I’m attacked only 3 out of my 6 soldiers fight? How am I meant to win against one hit weapons if I don’t even have numbers non the least weapons

### 5/5 — Great game. Great potential

*2018-12-24, version 1.29.1*

I like that it isn’t all about being a money grab, but a few purchases will help for sure.  I’d like to see a way to play with friends.  Something to motivate friends to play with.

### 5/5 — Recommendation☝️

*2018-12-22, version 1.29.1*

This game truly deserves a five star rating, it's balanced, exciting, addicting, and just overall amazing! My only recommendation for the game right now is the option to organize your armory because I always get my stored guns all messed up and just hard to find. So an option to organize your armory with your choice would be absolutely great. If that were added I would finally find peace in the game I love 😁. 

Keep it up 👌

### 1/5 — Kind of hard, sooooo much P2W

*2019-08-18, version 1.34.0*

I wanted to like this game, I really did. Its fun when you first start but very a quickly you progress to a point where the game gets difficult. I mean after maybe a few hours of playing. This is a pay to win game. You can recruit new troops, but any good ones can't be bought with currency that is more abundant, no they cost 1k+ of the special in game currancy that you need to buy. Oh yeah, you can try to grind and save but did I mention the pay wall you hit after a few hours? Don't waste your time with this. I'm so tired of greedy developers. I understand you have to make a living but this is just terrible.

**Developer response:** Hi commander,
Thanks for your feedback.
Every single player is able to choose his own game style. Someone wants to get everything at once, and the others save and collect all the necessary resources. But the possibilities of the players are the same.
Keep trooping!

### 1/5 — Retarded

*2019-07-16, version 1.33.1*

Ok so the multiplayer attack is so unfairly put together it should be completely taken from the game. It’s so ridiculous in fact one hit from most items will kill your entire team making it retarded to say the least. I would spend money on improving my team but then what, I just become the guy who 1 hits and walks away? Yeah I’m pretty sure I will be removing this soon.

### 1/5 — Wallet Warriors Paradise

*2019-03-25, version 1.30.0*

The latest update has compounded the problem of Wallet Warriors using Mommy’s credit card to take advantage of the exploits in the game.  Equipped health-enhancing items increase trooper hit points exponentially.  A single trooper can have over 20,000 hit points, making them effectively invincible.  So, how is that fun for anybody?

The game was fun when it was first released.  As happens, Developers’ blind greed has destroyed their product.

This app is appropriately rated “Deletable.”

### 1/5 — Used to be a good game until laser update.

*2018-10-29, version 1.28.0*

This game used to be a pretty good game until the last update.  The developers or incompetents, have ruined the iPad version of the game.  Many previous features such as rearranging troops is gone.  Selecting troops is very very difficult without also removing troops.  The developers have removed the chests redemption for stars to require coins which will require more real money purchases.   Completion used to be within similar groups but it appears this has changed to an all out war.  Sorry game now and I will not play or recommend until it is fixed.

### 2/5 — “Connection Error”

*2021-08-01, version 1.39.1*

It’s a good game i can say that no pop up adds and decent gameplay but with my experience I spent a decent amount of money on the Austrian supply  and the next day after buying it “Connection error” infinitely I’ve checked my internet and used other apps that use internet connection and still nothing error after error of a “internet problem” that probably doesn’t exist money wasted

### 2/5 — A slightly entertaining game,....

*2019-08-29, version 1.34.0*

But later almost impossible to level up your troops. As the enemy difficulty get higher. The rewards don’t. My teams level is 16, 17, and 18. A team of all 13s can wipe my team out. You get plenty of money of the levels, but hardly any books to level-up your troops, or stars for weapons. It’s now just a grind to get the “scrap” rewards to move forwards.

### 2/5 — Pay to win,

*2019-02-02, version 1.29.3*

Been playing this game for some time now and it gets more and more obvious that it’s “pay to win” because people are able to basically buy better characters and gear instead of earn it and it has caused me to barely ever be able to win pvp battles because others just far outclass me in level and gear.

### 2/5 — Great game, however....

*2018-07-18, version 1.24.6*

I want to rate this 5 stars, I really do... but the game has let me get a little ways in, and if I don’t come back for a couple hours, it’ll start up, and crash before I can play it. It’ll continue to crash repeatedly, and will not fix no matter how many times I reset the app, or even if I restart the phone. I had to delete it and redownload, and start over, and it just happened a second time. I can’t give it one star because it’s actually really fun, but I can’t play it for long without losing all progress... hope there’s a bug fix soon.

### 3/5 — Good game but...

*2020-08-14, version 1.39.1*

I was doing good in the game i got rare items from the crates had pretty decent troops i even spent money to get coins then i had finished a game then i got kicked out and all of my progress was wiped. And it’s kinda sad because a year ago i had this game and i was doing so good and then i got kicked and the app wouldn’t open up. So please fix this bug

Edit:this game is amazing and i would recommend i just hope a lot of the bugs get fixed

### 3/5 — Really fun but one major issue needs some fixing

*2020-06-27, version 1.39.1*

Ok so I love this game but there’s one huge glitch that needs fixing So the glitch is that sometimes it’ll say I have a bad connection when I have 5 bars and it won’t let me play but I don’t know how to explain this the game literally plays itself then lets me play with one trooper left then I have to wait an hour to heal my troopers and it takes the gameplay away from me if I wasn’t clear enough I’m basically saying the game ai plays it for me please fix this then I’ll give this game a fives star review

### 5/5 — It may not seem like much but it is to me

*2022-11-14, version 1.39.1*

So i’ve been playing this game for a long long time and it’s been my childhood and while it doesn’t seem like much to you guys or it’s not the main source of income may you please update it? I love the game and it’s kinda sad to see it not being updated. Just one small thing. Like a campaign! The evil guy in the end was alive. Please the game has so much potential. I just hope it gets updated man..

-To the team who works on Pocket Troops

### 5/5 — So cute and fun!

*2022-06-03, version 1.39.1*

I don’t typically review apps, especially games,  but I did want to say that this game gives you challenging content with setting up good stats and earning rewards.  There are ads but you are rewarded for viewing them and they aren’t forced on you anywhere in the game that I’ve seen so far.  The graphics are well done and the little soldiers are sound like minions speaking more coherently 🤣

### 5/5 — GREAT GAME!!

*2020-12-23, version 1.39.1*

I normally don’t write reviews, the game even asked me to write one and I declined at first. I didn’t understand the game mechanics for the first 2 weeks, might have only tried to play it 2 or 3 times in that time span. However I got bored, went back in to play on Monday and got the hang of it. I liked it so much I even spent a total of $70 but that’s partly because a brotha knows stimulus checks are coming soon lol. I honestly can’t say anything bad about this game, I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t perfect. It’s actually very addictive. Great job to the creators and developers, I’m impressed.

### 5/5 — A outstanding game

*2020-09-04, version 1.39.1*

When I was like 7 me and my cousin would play this all the time and I just picked to revisit it and I’m surprised that it still works and it is way better then when me and my cousin played glad to see it’s still working 

P.S keep trooping

### 5/5 — Such an underrated game

*2020-08-08, version 1.39.1*

This is one of the games that reminds me of the 09/10 App Store games. Perfectly balanced with plenty of fixes and updates. Easy to play and most of all fun. Slightly pay to win though.

### 5/5 — Really good game

*2020-05-30, version 1.38.0*

This game is so good the graphics the designs of the characters you have to make a event and make clans clans will be really good getting help from people and group wars just like clash of clans I hope it gets added this game is so good but it needs one thing global chat where people can communicate hope you add that.

### 5/5 — Good game just got to spend money to enjoy

*2020-04-02, version 1.38.0*

I think it is a great game lots of fun but you just have to keep spending money to be able to keep playing, you get so far and then the guys are to hard to beat all ready dumped like 25 dollars into it and it went no where I hope they change that soon I only down loaded it for one week and now it’s put money in or your finished but it is a lot of fun just the cost and fun value are not on par some games it takes like months before that happens but not this one and it is a shame but it is fun thanks have a nice day

### 5/5 — Best turn based game

*2020-01-23, version 1.38.0*

This game has everything you would expect from a game like this but there’s one thing that needs to be changed. It’s not that big of a problem but you should be able to get the new special troops without paying real money

### 5/5 — Love it but...

*2019-11-01, version 1.37.0*

I love this game but I wish they would add something to friend people with and I wish the special troopers were less expensive but besides those the games amazing

### 5/5 — Great game but one problem

*2019-06-25, version 1.32.0*

When I updated the game today I saw that both hospital and workout room were locked for me and i know I’m supposed to do story missions but I did 3 of the difficulty’s so don’t I have to do all difficulty’s ? Please tell me I’m very confused but beside that I love this game a lot and you guys are doing the best you can and also those big health bosses in orange jump suits can we get the weapons they have yes? or no? Please respond
