Most of my friends have android ### 3/5 — Doesn’t work on android *2024-09-29, version 1.4* It’s got potential ### 3/5 — Nostalgic but I can’t play it anymore *2023-04-15, version 1.4* I used to play this with my parents and siblings when I was younger but now I’m the only one who can play it because they all have android phones can you update it so I can play with my family please ### 3/5 — Guns *2022-02-06, version 1.4* Everything about it is great but for some reason I can’t connect to the guns. I’m sure everything else about this is great but every time I go to the Bluetooth to connect to the gun it doesn’t seem to show up to connect to it. If there is some fix for this could you please let me know. ### 4/5 — This is worth it *2021-02-06, version 1.4* This is a lot of fun when when you have enough people playing it. I wish They had a cheap replacement device available instead of our actual phones so I don’t have to sync up people’s phones to the guns before we play ### 4/5 — It’s awesome but... *2021-01-29* I know you probably aren’t going to read this but if you do I would like to say it’s got potential, I like the actually gameplay and all the gagets and I would really like some more kinds of weapons, do get me wrong I like the guns you have so far but I want more stuff like shotguns and maybe a zombie mode were the people with only phones can play as zombies a common complaint that you’ve probably heared a lot is the glitching which I don’t actually mind what I want to talk about it’s the battery usage, there’s probably no way you can fix this considering the guns have...well recoil and the laser but if there is a way then please do it, if you do I would like there to be a way You could return the ones you have for the new ones because I hope you understand that I feel like you should have to pay for something twice ya know? Anyway the game is fun and i want you guys to pick up from where you left of. ### 3/5 — Ehhhhhhh *2020-10-15, version 1.4* It was fine for my iPhone 6 but not good for my dad’s galaxy note 10 + I’m just saying they should make it for all phones ### 5/5 — Awesome fun with your friends, a tad too difficult to set up *2020-09-24, version 1.4* I love going out into the backyard to play around with the recoil with my friends. There are a couple issues though. The hub and the guns are a little hard to connect and the app makes it unclear in which direction to move in. These aren’t huge issues, but should be fixed :) Either way, the thing is awesome and totally worth the purchase if you want to get outside and play a game of laser tag at home. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ### 5/5 — Super Spiel *2020-08-27, version 1.4* Ich finde die Waffen und das Spiel super. Ich finde es nur schade dass die GPS Verbindung nicht so gut funktioniert. Aber da dass nicht so schlimm ist 5 Sterne! ### 3/5 — Too many bugs *2020-06-02, version 1.4* It’s obvious that there are a lot of bugs that make, in fact it took me a week to actually download this app because it says there’s an error. BUT the first time I played it it was fun but after a while not so much. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Recoil is bad *2024-07-23, version 1.4* I tried to connect a gun to my IPad and it just didn’t connect then I tried 4 years later and it still didn’t work if I can rate 0 stars I would ### 1/5 — Keine Einzelspieler funktion *2023-05-18, version 1.4* Schade, ich hatte mich sehr auf diesen coolen Blaster gefreut. Leider ist die App total unbrauchbar wenn man alleine auf Drohnen oder Ähnliches ballern möchte, Weil’s das hier nicht gibt. Der Blaster lässt sich alleine auch nicht mit dem Händy einfach verbinden,.. ### 1/5 — Probably hacks you *2023-04-06, version 1.4* Played game with no sound (made sure 100%) and could still hear. Was the same with other device. Im abit concerned over privacy and the amount of things it asks for (location and microphone etc.) ### 1/5 — Fell off *2022-11-11, version 1.4* Vraiment dommage, mais les devs s'en foutent ### 1/5 — Broken *2022-01-16, version 1.4* First off, my audio was forcefully stuck at max, and my friend’s volume didn’t even work on his phone, the guns didn’t even have to be pointed at one another to deal damage, even if your in an open field while close to the hub the gps is very broken and randomly teleports you around the place, the gps has incredibly low range and many other bugs. No update to the app in 4 years, devs are extremely lazy or just gave up entirely on the app. ### 1/5 — Stupid *2021-10-04, version 1.4* I hate it ### 1/5 — Not good *2021-08-22, version 1.4* Whenever I go about 50 feet away from the hotspot it disconnects. Also no matter which way I walk on the map it never lets me capture the flag. DO NOT DOWNLOAD ### 1/5 — Klappt nicht *2021-04-07, version 1.4* Wir haben zwei waffen und die App. Leider kommt man gar nicht zum spielen, da die App immer nur eine waffe findet und einen Spieler erkennt. Sehr schade. So total nutzlos my ### 1/5 — No Connect with iphone *2021-01-17, version 1.4* The guns don’t connect with iPhone 6 nor iPhone XR. With Andeoid works fine ### 1/5 — Not the best *2020-09-23, version 1.4* The tutorial guy is annoying ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sad that skyrocket is gone *2025-10-06, version 1.4* The app is great but it is sad that skyrocket closed down it seems like when toys r us closed all of the fun toy companies closed. ### 5/5 — Great game even years later! *2025-03-01, version 1.4* I got my first recoil guns a few years ago, and I have been loving it! I don’t know why they are now only available from pre-used, but it still works great. ### 5/5 — Sad that skyrocket is gone *2024-06-07, version 1.4* The app is great but it is sad that skyrocket closed down it seems like when toys r us closed all of the fun toy companies closed. ### 5/5 — Best game ever will make memories *2024-04-19, version 1.4* I know it’s a little to late to say this because I got the laser gun pack for my son and me 6years ago and we’re still playing to this day thank you for all these memory’s 🥹🥹 ### 5/5 — Soooo fun *2021-11-17, version 1.4* 🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫 ### 5/5 — Best Game Ever! *2021-05-22, version 1.4* I love your game! It is even better than some others I’ve played! Honestly, I have no idea why I waited years to play this game. However, there is one problem. I am unsure how you are supposed to use the ar cards. I would love it if you could explain it to me! ### 5/5 — Please update app! *2021-04-08, version 1.4* This is so awesome! But it needs an update for the app. It has so much potential! Please update the app so we can play it without lag. ### 5/5 — Awesome I recommend you try it but you might need to buy a different gun for it to *2021-04-04, version 1.4* The best ### 5/5 — Excellent *2021-01-31, version 1.4* Perfect for playing with family. Flawless. ### 5/5 — Love this Game *2020-09-25, version 1.4* This game makes me want to go play outside rather than play inside all day everyday on my console --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
