Please fix - its not a huge bug but to begin the game with all explanations as white areas makes you feel sad - i have an IPAD M5 Pro ### 4/5 — Could be incredibly good *2026-05-28, version 1.269* As I said in the title this COULD be so good. Think old school command and conquer. But instead the second mission is so ridiculous that at no point do you even have time to defend yourself before an absolute barrage of enemy appear and kill you and destroy base. Zero time or resources to even take a stab. It’s such a shame because I really want to play it. It’s exactly what I was looking for. until I get wiped out inside 3 minutes in the first mission that’s not the mega simple tutorial. But I really love this game. It’s excellent. It just needs ironing out ### 2/5 — RTS…too hard basket. *2026-03-17, version 1.116* If you came here looking for a C&C type thing don’t bother. The game gets unplayable very quickly. ### 3/5 — This game looks fun but the controls suck *2026-02-24, version 1.115* So I love the original command and Conquerer types of games. And I’ve been trying a few different games that are similar to it like this game. So for the campaign, it seems like it only lets me choose the first training mission only. It doesn’t allow me continue to the other ones. Even with the random code it provides at the end of the first mission when you complete it. I’ve tried to put it in the menu screen for it in the campaign thing and I don’t even think it did anything and I also don’t even know what it does. So instead of continuing the campaign I decided to try out the missions and they seem to be cool. But the ore collector don’t seem to listen to me when I want it to go somewhere else to collect ore. So when I make 3 more of the ore collector vehicles they just go around in circles doing nothing at all while the 1st one is collecting ore, even when there’s a completely new pile of ore to collect from further away, they just sit there and do nothing. So then when I want to make more buildings or troops or whatever I don't really have that much money. Because only one of the ore collectors is collecting. I also feel like the ore fields should give out more money when the ore collectors go back to the base because there’s a lot of other troops or vehicles that cost +$10k to $40k or so when you get further into the building upgrades. And with the slow amounts of money coming in. I would never make it to any of those other upgrades, and if I do make it and the enemy destroys the troops or whatever then I have to get it again, and it’s such a waste. And also I think the ore fields should still pump out more crystal ore stuff because the fields dry out really fast. And the enemy base just keeps sending stuff troops and stuff out and it seems like they never run out of money themselves. Anyways other then those things the game seems to be good so far. ### 4/5 — Very fun game *2025-11-25, version 1.113* Very fun game but it is kind of if buggy and glitchy, on iPhone it isn’t well optimized ### 3/5 — Love the idea *2025-08-25, version 1.113* Seems like it’s great but level 4 is impossible. You can’t even get your base setup before they send in vehicles non stop that are better than even the base defenses you get ### 4/5 — If you like command and conquer you will like this! *2025-06-13, version 1.113* Could use more instructions but fun game!!! ### 4/5 — Great game, but has issues *2025-06-11, version 1.113* I really enjoy the game, especially while travelling, and it allows me to reminisce about the first two Command and Conquer games. However, there are some issues, namely with the skirmish modes where when you have three AI teams, as soon as one is defeated the game ends. Not enough variety of enemies, as I rarely encounter the alien faction. Another annoying feature is when placing structures and you’re placing it, the whole screen moves, and finally, some modes such as maps in the online mode don’t allow you to attack. Great game otherwise, but a few bug fixes and it’ll be near perfect. ### 2/5 — I wanted to like it more, but… *2025-05-23, version 1.113* Way too many bugs and synchronization errors to keep it enjoyable ### 4/5 — Mr *2025-02-28, version 1.113* You need bigger maps, more options, sometimes there is some bugs, but its ok. I really like it, it reminds me of red alert from Sony 1… but we really miss ships, bigger maps, submarines… ### 3/5 — Level 4 *2024-12-28, version 1.113* How do you beat level 4? Enemy so overpowered and always fail within last 10 seconds ### 4/5 — Recommend *2024-12-22, version 1.113* Good Just like red sun and command and conquer bk in the good olds days I like it just need a couple updates like resolution and speed but enjoying it so far ### 5/5 — Fun *2024-12-03, version 1.113* Command and conquer like the old days 🤘 ### 5/5 — Fun game *2024-10-31, version 1.113* Not quite as good as the old C&C in that there isn’t much of a story line for the campaigns, but still fun to play. ### 5/5 — Rts *2024-10-14, version 1.113* It’s alright ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not good *2026-02-02, version 1.115* Graphics are poor ### 1/5 — Shocking *2025-08-01, version 1.113* Unplayable. Glitchy, with build icons staying red when trying to place. Base defences attacking own units. Really annoying audio voices when building. Even on the basic levels you’re quickly overwhelmed by a superior enemy. No advanced power plants so constantly trying to manage power issues with the insufficient plants provided. ### 1/5 — Beginning missions *2025-07-18, version 1.113* Litterally won’t let you do anything ### 1/5 — Broken *2024-10-12, version 1.113* Game is broken. Or the tutorial does teach anything. ### 1/5 — Buggy *2024-09-20, version 1.113* They never fix the bugs in this game but they are pretty quick at updating it to play adverts !!! I think I will delete ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time or money *2023-10-11, version 1.110* I thought it looked great but it’s actually very annoying and not fully thought out or debugged. Too many bugs /glitches. ### 1/5 — Ads *2023-03-03, version 1.110* I get that the game has to generate revenue, but I got an ad before I even got a kill. Immediately uninstalled after. ### 1/5 — Worn work *2022-10-30, version 1.110* The game opens up to a black screen if anyone has any way of fixing it let me know cause I really want to play this. ### 1/5 — Started great….then went downhill *2022-02-23, version 1.106* This is the closest clone of C&C on iPad. However once you start getting into the game the enemy A.I just ramps up and you are always outgunned. Then guess what you realise you will need to spend real money to purchase assets to survive. Such a shame. Don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — EXTREMELY glitchy *2021-10-11, version 1.103* Buildings dont always build even though you payed for them, units don’t always attack, you cant always select all units, many units don’t attack at all, units you build will disappear, harvesters dont go where you tell them, the game will randomly yell canceled at you a billion times in a row, the money system with harvesting is VERY inaccurate and doesn't always work aka you dont get the money you harvest (huge problem) ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It’s good *2026-03-05, version 1.116* There are some issues, mainly on newer iPhones the UI is hidden away behind the rounded corners of the display or behind the Dynamic Island. Tutorials could be a little more in depth, but overall a good game. It’s entertaining and isn’t constantly trying to sell you something. Good job to the developer. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2025-09-22, version 1.113* Solid game. Controls are a little clunky but to be expected for a mobile game. Really need a read me or how to file to explain all the different units! ### 5/5 — Like playing Red Alert and Tiberian Sun *2025-09-14, version 1.113* Like the title says - I do like this a lot it has the old CnC vibe ### 5/5 — Wonderful! *2025-07-22, version 1.113* I know it’s a work in progress, but it’s great! It brings back a lot of memories. ### 5/5 — Command and Conquer for real! *2025-04-20, version 1.113* Could not be happier with the game. It’s just like C&C for PC was in the 90s and early 2000s. Ads aren’t annoying, just one after each game. No pay to play needed ### 5/5 — RedSun RTS *2025-04-20, version 1.113* Old school C&C! Very well drawn and pulled together very well. Well done. It’s the only way to play C&C on iOS - very recommended. Hope more bigger maps are on the way. ### 5/5 — Brings me Back *2025-04-12, version 1.113* Love this game. Reminds me of the C&C era on my PC in the 90’s. Obvious issues with some mechanics in the game and some Campaign missions don’t interface well with iPhone. Can’t complain as it’s free and is still very enjoyable. Thank you Yuri! ### 5/5 — Memory lane *2025-03-03, version 1.113* Good old school fun ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2025-01-24, version 1.113* It’s so freakin good ### 5/5 — Can you fix the game for us please so you can play with friends without it lagging thanks otherwise *2024-12-24, version 1.113* Can you fix the game for us please so you can play with friends without it lagging thanks otherwise the game is great fun --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
