### 4/5 — Too much ads

*2026-06-12, version 1.0.30*

I like popular wars it’s a fun game to play but there is too much ads and you can’t play 1 round after getting an ad

### 2/5 — Mmnn

*2024-09-29, version 1.0.30*

If I download the app and says play then the screen is just black!
This is very frustrating!

But the game is sooo fun and I really want to play it

### 4/5 — ん！うーーーーー？？？

*2022-05-03*

あー〜ーーー？

### 4/5 — i love this but..

*2022-01-30, version 1.0.30*

i used to play this game all the time on my old ipod back in 2017!! now i have an iphone and i love playing this game still!! it is a little bit glitchy, but the characters are cute, and so are the colors! i would like it for the maps to be updated, but other then that this game is so fun!!

### 2/5 — Kinda disappointed

*2021-10-22*

I remember I had this game downloaded on a previous phone and I swear there were not so many ads. Or at least there was an option to buy an ad free experience. I can’t seem to find that now. Which makes it so annoying. Every time I want to play you have to watch an ad, and you do have a choice! I wish they gave you the option to buy an ad free game. I would. If they had that I would probably of given the game 4 or 5 stars and not just 2. It’s not worth watching an ad every time you play for the short time you play each time.

### 2/5 — Lag

*2021-08-05, version 1.0.30*

It’s fun but it’s incredibly laggy and too many ads on it. I ended up uninstalling because of how laggy it was

### 3/5 — I love it! I hate it!

*2021-04-17, version 1.0.29*

I love on how it’s addicting and fun but I hate on how there’s ads and how they copied crowd city from voodoo! I love it! I hate it!

### 3/5 — To big game

*2020-09-25, version 1.0.26*

Does not want to start the game

### 4/5 — Good game

*2020-08-14, version 1.0.26*

Good game but it isn’t popular any more. Get it it is a pun!!!!!!! Well there is nothing wrong with this game it is awesome

### 4/5 — Nice.

*2020-06-23, version 1.0.25*

Nice! It’s a good game. But sometimes it giltchs and throws me out when I’m in the middle of a good. That part is not cool.

### 3/5 — Not a multi-player game!

*2020-05-21, version 1.0.25*

It’s not playing against real people, you’re playing against a computer. I wish I hadn’t realised this as it was quite fun in beginning. I really thought I was playing against other users!

### 3/5 — Great?

### 1/5 — Bug

*2024-03-13, version 1.0.30*

Spielspaß leider 1%, da es total verbugt ist, man am Anfang direkt aus der map fliegt und nach gedenkt spiel man gezwungen ist sich mindestens 15 Sekunden Werbung reinzupfeifen.

### 1/5 — I lost all my stuff and I don’t wanna work for it again it took so long

*2021-12-12, version 1.0.30*

I lost all my stuff

### 1/5 — Just total waste

*2021-03-11, version 1.0.29*

Ads every 2 minutes, only one map, you barely ever win cause they make you not able to eliminate someone in the beginning but someone can eliminate you. Its just a waste don’t download.

### 1/5 — は

*2020-12-05*

毎回位置の違いですぐ負ける普通にうざいアプリ

### 1/5 — Only Bots

*2020-08-11, version 1.0.26*

Look at the names of the other players. They are all generated using a pretty basic name generator. Very transparent. (Redninja, redsumo, redsamurai, pinkninja, pinksumo, pinksamurai, etc.) You are not actually playing anyone else online, only against your phone. And its kind of a sad lie to make people think otherwise.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2020-06-03, version 1.0.25*

Good game but then erased all my progress

### 1/5 — Hmm

*2020-04-23, version 1.0.23*

This game is nice and all but........it’s super laggy. Don’t blame it on internet. My internet is fine. Let’s not mention the ads. You see, I know all games care about reviews, but this review makes you know that this specific game needs improvement. A lot of improvement.
