Ads are long and frustrating when you’re trying to focus on main gameplay. Too bad ### 2/5 — Just like every game out there *2026-08-27, version 1.495* The game is fun, the concept of it is fun. However, just like every other game out there it’s riddled with ads, have to close 3 just to start playing EVERY time you open the app. The game starts off easy like most then you progress and eventually reach a point your upgrades don’t mean anything and you get stuck taking forever to save up gems and gold to buy upgrades in game without actually spending money. So if you start paying for things you’ll move up quickly. If you’re a casual player playing for fun, you’ll get bored and eventually stop playing. Of course it’s always about paying to progress. ### 2/5 — Forced ads mid level *2026-08-26, version 1.495* Game was fun but forced ads have ruined it. It has the normal watch an ad get a perk mechanic but all of a sudden there are ads mid level that ruin play. ### 2/5 — Ad spam *2026-08-26, version 1.495* You can’t even get through one game without the constant spamming of ads. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother Ads run it *2026-08-25, version 1.495* Money hungry for ads, runied a good game. Don’t even bother downloading you’ll get smashed with ads and every two seconds you get asked to buy something . DO NOT DOWNLOAD TRUST ME!!!!! ### 1/5 — Not like the ads, similar to all the other games by this dev. Just reskinned. *2026-08-25, version 1.495* The game actually is kind of fun for about a week. The. You get hit with forced ads. You get 6 weapons at a time, but as you continue the game, as you draw cards the game will just not let you select some of them. Won’t even offer during play. As it’s nothing but their systems dealing cards, you are at their mercy on what you get and when they decide they want you to lose, you lose. They are trying to get you to spend money, but I don’t see why anyone would since you clearly get stonewalled by the devs and your purchases become worthless when they say. ### 1/5 — Fun until… *2026-08-25, version 1.495* Fun for 10 minutes then the ads start. Delete ### 2/5 — Fun but way too many ads *2026-08-24, version 1.495* Seems like a fun game, but deleted after 5 mins after getting 3 adverts in first level ### 1/5 — Too many Ads *2026-08-24, version 1.495* The ads are way too frequent and really annoying. 🤮🤮🤮 ### 3/5 — Monetized out the wazoo but good gameplay *2026-08-23, version 1.495* Annoyingly monetized & full of pointless added gambling mechanics. The gameplay itself is great tho. ### 1/5 — sucks *2026-08-23, version 1.495* it was good at first till you get later on into the game. its hard to make progress. by the looks of it even paying dont really get you no where. ### 1/5 — TRASH game full of ads *2026-08-23, version 1.495* You’ve played a hundred games like this one. Constant ads and pushes for micro-transactions. The game itself isn’t even fun ### 1/5 — Horrible *2026-08-23, version 1.495* This game has the worst drop rate in any game. Also they fail to help you in game. An no matter what even if you have passed 10 levels and you go back to that level they give you worst defense first so honestly they have wasted my time on this game no point just play something else I will never redownload this game ever again!! ### 1/5 — Add *2026-08-22* A lot of adds , sometimes u need to watch a video in the middle of the fight **Developer response:** We understand that mid-match ads can be frustrating. While ads help keep Raid Rush free, any small in-app purchase removes all forced ads. Your feedback has been shared with our team. ### 1/5 — Heavy forced ads *2026-08-22, version 1.495* Played for a day and loved it. After a little bit of playing comes cry aggressive forced ads. If I could give zero stars I would. ### 2/5 — too many ads *2026-08-22, version 1.495* first of all i give it one star because of way too many ads also while i was playing its cuts into ads ugh !! its way waste of time. unless you pay to ads free honestly it is fun to play i give it two star rating out of fives. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Too many adds! *2026-08-29, version 1.497* Too many adds to enjoy the game! You spend more time watching adds than playing. ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-29, version 1.497* Ads in the middle of game play. Ads that can be upwards of 2 minutes. Ads that are bundled 3 at a time. I get you need to make money but there is a limit. I’m out ### 1/5 — Well it’s a phony *2026-08-28, version 1.497* My phone was smokin hot i couldn’t even hold it ### 1/5 — Ads galore *2026-08-27, version 1.495* Halfway through playing a level and *boom* ads appear. Extremely annoying and put me off after a few hours playing. ### 1/5 — Fun at first, just another rigged slot machine *2026-08-26, version 1.495* It was fun for a couple of levels. Now I see it is just another rigged slot machine. This is a tower defense game that stops offering you towers at all about halfway through the level, so that you either pay for refreshed choices, or have to pay to strengthen your towers, buy heros/buffs (for $30+ LOL), etc. Truly just another pay to win cash grab. The ads don’t work which requires you to use gems (surely the devs don’t mind this at all…). Also, it’s clear that there are balance issues with which towers/items are offered upon leveling up. Almost like the game doesn’t WANT you to pass levels - games lately, in 20-40 level-ups, will completely stop offering towers at all, preventing any additional damage possible. Or, certain tower types are just never offered. For instance, just played several rounds of 20-40 upgrades (3 items per upgrade), and never had 2 of the 6 equipped items offered at all. ### 1/5 — Essentially Pay to Play *2026-08-26, version 1.495* While you don’t need to actually pay to play you simply won’t progress without spending real money on the game. Played for about a week before it became impossible to progress. Also the ads are INSANE can’t do anything without an ad. Few ads here and there I get, have to make money somehow but this is wild. ### 1/5 — Too many advertisements *2026-08-26, version 1.495* Too often ### 1/5 — To many ads *2026-08-26, version 1.495* Was fun at first until the ads began and just wouldn’t stop, uninstalled the game. ### 1/5 — Bait and switch *2026-08-26, version 1.495* Games it’s self is great. But!! They start you off with NO adds. For an about 5 days. Then it’s nonstop adds. An overwhelming amount of adds!!!!!! I just want to play the game!! Do not download. ### 1/5 — Add farming game *2026-08-25, version 1.495* Super long adds and VERY frequent. Half time playing game and half time watching adds. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The best game ever *2026-08-30, version 1.497* This game is so fun even my dad place ### 5/5 — All action *2026-08-30, version 1.497* No base building or side quests just fight and upgrade ### 5/5 — Oooohh *2026-08-27, version 1.495* Wow,so good ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-08-10, version 1.492* Can you please add an endless mode ### 5/5 — Luv it *2026-08-10, version 1.492* Love the game, fun 👍🏻 ### 5/5 — Actually a Tower Defense Game *2026-08-05, version 1.492* This game is addictive. It is pay to win, but still amazingly engaging and fun. The free options still allow for enjoyable gameplay and time well spent. Goals are clear, leveling towers and heroes is logical, and the guild system allows for peer engagement on your terms. This is a good game. ### 5/5 — Good *2026-08-04, version 1.492* So good ### 5/5 — Verstehe manche Bewertungen nicht *2026-08-03* Ich sehe, dass viele schreiben, dass zu viel Werbung im Spiel ist. Aber ehrlich gesagt kommt nie Werbung. Man kann Werbung anschauen, aber das ist freiwillig. Zum Beispiel wenn man gestorben ist, ein weiteres Leben zu bekommen. Oder um extra Diamanten zu bekommen. Aber vor, mitten und nach dem Spiel ist nicht eine Werbung zu sehen. Ich finde das Spiel sehr sehr gut. Naturlich ist es manchmal sehr schwer. Aber mit guter Taktik und Turm Auswahl, kann man da was erreichen. ### 5/5 — Ad watching simulator *2026-07-24, version 1.490* They played the same 15 second ad 8 times to fill one 2 minute ad slot. It’s ok tho because they gave me my reward after i watched the ad 7 times. ### 5/5 — Purchases *2026-07-16, version 1.490* The game is a lot of fun. And I don’t mind spending $3, $5 or even $10 on something game, that would help me be more successful or have more fun, but there’s no way in hell I’m spending $25 for something or $50. Note to the owners of this game; death by 1000 cuts would bring in more money as many of us have no problems spending two or three or five dollars throughout the week, but we will not spend large chunks of cash --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
