Aside from this, which is told in single stages separated by the above loop, there’s not really much in this All elite characters, bar Claire, are held behind paywalls, and there’s no way of getting them aside from purchasing their packs. Meaning if you got into it for the main crew, you’ll be disappointed like I was ### 5/5 — A New Way to Experience RE! *2026-08-22, version 1.9.0* As a long time diehard RE fan, I have to say this is a very fun and unique way to experience Racoon City. ### 4/5 — always kicks you out *2026-08-22* This game has been entertaining and much beloved as I’m a fan of the franchise however I lose interest when I’m playing then suddenly I’m kicked out of the game this happens frequently and then I don’t bother logging in again **Developer response:** We’re sorry for the trouble you’ve experienced.

Only request is to see a visual difference with each building upgrade ### 2/5 — Boring *2026-08-20, version 1.9.0* Boring and repetitive ### 4/5 — About languages *2026-08-20* Everything is great in this game,but what about Russian language?😩we really need it. **Developer response:** We’re happy to know you’re enjoying the game!

I’d love to see then add voice files for the newer characters they are adding or maybe use some of the save room audio in some areas of the game ### 2/5 — Terrible *2026-08-20, version 1.8.9* Updated game and will not open. Terrible game. ### 3/5 — Update? *2026-08-20, version 1.8.9* Is there an update coming? I tried playing the game and it says an update is required. ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2026-08-19, version 1.8.9* Best mobile game I’ve ever played! If you’re a RE fan, this is a must play!

Game puzzles are nice. Game crashes are still active at the moment when game is launched for a period of time. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Нет Русского языка *2026-08-29, version 1.9.2* Нет Русского языка ### 1/5 — Billy Coen *2026-08-20, version 1.9.0* This new update erased my stars off Billy and it took away his exclusive gun ### 1/5 — Buggy *2026-08-20, version 1.8.9* Keeps telling g me to upgrade but there’s no option in the App Store :( ### 1/5 — Parasitical money grab *2026-08-16* Met some great chill player but all the best hero’s like Leon and Jill are hidden behind huge pay walls. Final straw was when day one players constantly attack you but couldn’t transfer to different world as I’m a new account. Became stressful to play and no way out. Better of just playing res 4 and avoiding this slop **Developer response:** We’re sorry to hear that we weren't able to fully meet your expectations. We will carefully review your feedback and use it to guide future improvements. We're always here to help—please feel free to reach out to our team. ### 1/5 — Not for people with little time to play. *2026-08-14, version 1.8.9* I am a full time caretaker that can only play this game a couple times a day. If you are unable to maintain your defenses, you will be screwed over at every turn. I’m a massive Resident Evil fan, but I do not have time to deal with my base being attacked, and several people attacked me out of nowhere last night while I was sleeping and ruined everything I spent months building. Plus? I came back just a bit ago to fix my defense gate further only to find everything on fire cause someone else attacked me again. I’m done. I put a fair amount of money into the game so I could play as the canon game characters only to have this happen to me. I don’t have time for this, and I no longer care. This game lost a paying customer today. ### 1/5 — Prologue bait *2026-07-30* The initial story has nothing to do with the real game, which is pure chore. Plus they take away characters you own as they please **Developer response:** Agradecemos por compartilhar sua opinião. Lamentamos que a experiência não tenha correspondido às suas expectativas. Seu feedback sobre a diferença entre o prólogo e a jogabilidade principal, assim como sobre a gestão dos personagens, será compartilhado com a equipe para futuras melhorias. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother with this game *2026-07-21, version 1.8.7* It’s a reskinned game with less RE and lots of bugs. The devs obviously are not senior and support staff is lacking. If your device is not current then you may have limited play if any. Too many F2P and a heavily sensitive farming community. For an adult game, you will find many are the “trophy participation” community. Simple words like “manager” or “congratulations” are censored 😂. If you have money and win, your called a bully 😂 as the F2P expect you to let them win. This is supposed to be a war game and yet players play it like FarmVille. Take your money and buy a new PC and open a Steam account and play games there instead. ### 1/5 — Pay 2 win characters locked behind paywalls *2026-07-17, version 1.8.7* Leon is locked behind a paywall, to be able to level up jill and ada locked behind paywall. The large alliances gate keep the servers and destroy anything smaller than them. Dont waste your time on this game. ### 1/5 — It’s not resident evil *2026-07-13, version 1.8.5* Dont get this. It starts like a resident evil game and just turns into one of those war games. Huge waste of time and money grab everywhere. Servers are full of bots. There is no way the review rating for this is right. I actually played for a while and they present a package to buy to help during a step( I bought it) only for the main item to no be the exact one I need to heal troops. Support won’t do anything for me. Stay away!!!! ### 1/5 — Kingdom pvp *2026-07-11, version 1.8.5* I thought it was going to be like dead trigger but RE based it’s not it’s a last war, winter survival fake game that has PvP kingdoms so you can attacked and lose resources it’s just not fun ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it!!! *2026-08-31, version 1.9.4* Since I downloaded it today (3 hours ago) lol I am Still playing it. Great game all around. Great story scenarios as well. Great job Team. You knocked this one outta the park 😊😊😊😊 ### 5/5 — Very goot *2026-08-29* I like this ### 5/5 — One of the best video game mobile apps *2026-08-29, version 1.9.4* I’m really enjoying this game has puzzles and code cracks just like the original game and I’m also learning more about the characters ### 5/5 — Game *2026-08-28, version 1.9.2* Good game to pass time 🦧 ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-08-26* Top **Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to rate us and for your support!

Honestly, it does that job very well. I started playing on July 11th after seeing an advertisement on Discord and decided to try it because I love the Resident Evil universe and have always enjoyed RTS games. My first impression was already positive because of the atmosphere, music, sound effects, and overall presentation. It genuinely feels like Resident Evil in some ways, especially with the characters, sounds, and even some RE style puzzles. That being said, it is still primarily a mobile RTS game. The Resident Evil characters are fun to collect, but they sometimes feel more like skins with familiar names rather than fully realised versions of the characters. Some character models also feel a little off, which is disappointing for such an iconic franchise. Gameplay wise, this is where the game shines. The base building, upgrading, resource management, hero system, and combat are genuinely enjoyable. I love watching my combat power grow and seeing my base develop. The combat is satisfying, and the ability to speed things up makes the experience much smoother. One thing that surprised me is how generous the game can be. There are plenty of free resources, speedups, gems, and events available. While spending money can give you advantages, I do not feel the game is as pay to win as people might expect. Active free to play players can absolutely progress and compete if they use good strategies and participate in alliance events. The alliance system is probably one of the biggest strengths of this game. A good alliance completely changes the experience. Being in an active, organised alliance with good leadership makes the game much more enjoyable and gives you a reason to keep playing. My biggest complaints are the bugs, which still need a lot of work, and the lack of deeper Resident Evil integration. I think Capcom could have been more involved with making the characters, story, and overall presentation feel more authentic to the franchise. Overall, I think Resident Evil Survival Unit is a great mobile RTS with a Resident Evil theme. If you are expecting a traditional survival horror Resident Evil game, you may be disappointed. But if you enjoy strategy games and want something different set in the Resident Evil universe, I would recommend giving it a try. **Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to rate us and for your support!
