And what is a crystal canopy because I haven’t seen them.also sometimes there is some diamond in say the red gems(I don’t know what they are called) but there is diamond angels there and I get SHATTERED IMMEDIATELY so that makes me mad,I get they’re meant to guard the diamonds BUT ONLY IN THE MIDDLE! It’s a good game but needs improvement.(I love the game and it’s developers so don’t take this too bad,please) ### 4/5 — Please fix, can’t update. *2021-07-26, version 2.2.1* Please fix, can’t update. This game is cool and I hope it gets support. I love these killstreak games. Good gimmick ### 2/5 — It needs a update *2021-05-03, version 2.2.1* When I get in the game it just saids it needs a update but when I go to the page it just saids open ### 2/5 — Constant freezing issues *2021-04-15, version 2.2.1* every single time i play this game i get a few minutes in and then it just freezes ### 5/5 — Good game *2021-03-21, version 2.2.0* BEST GAME EVER OMG ### 5/5 — It freezes *2021-03-15* I don’t wanna see a lot of more about this because there’s millions of reviews saying that it freezes but please fix your game I would really recommend this game because it’s a very good game I played all the time it’s just when I’m about to get to max crystals in all the categories I just log out and freeze ### 5/5 — Hjk *2021-03-02, version 2.1.8* I love your tick tock ### 5/5 — Luv it *2021-02-19, version 2.1.8* This game is perfection It currently has a basic design But it's a work in progress Liv it tho ### 3/5 — weird *2021-02-18, version 2.1.8* honestly dont know whats going on. Theres crystals that unlock powers... the green powers seen useless. Theres a white crystal guy up top that instakills me. I think there are bots, and maybe other players?? its a big grey blank arena with crystals. Its just weird. ### 2/5 — Can be good *2021-02-14, version 2.1.8* The game is fun and i like the simplicity of mining the crystal things. However the camera is bad since it’s the same joystick that controls your player, and the ground is slippery and makes running difficult, and the bosses are incredibly difficult, i could spend an hour getting as strong as i can and i die in 10 shots by the boss at the top. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This game blows *2023-08-20* First of all it barley functions it says you need some update when there is none I’m lucky mine even worked others said they couldn’t play it not to mention the whole possible freezing when opening the app so you have to reload it the game mechanics don’t work at all especially the movement you can barley fly with the wings because they need the movement which like I said isn’t good it would have been better if this was a pc game even then this on pc would still be a nightmare terrible game bugs and design just terrible ### 1/5 — Bruh *2023-01-21* Downloaded this game thinking it was fun but can’t even play it. Keeps telling me I need to download latest update so I check AppStore if there’s a update and there isn’t one. Also every time I try to play when I tap the app it freezes and I have to repeat this until it actually starts loading but then that’s when it tells me I need to update it. I am on an iphone and I’ve seen people play this game idk what’s causing this but so far this game is pretty bad if it’s this buggy ### 1/5 — Worst game ever *2022-03-07, version 2.3.6* It takes so long to load and when you die you respawn with a crystal chasing you and when you continue more crystal monster things chasing you ### 1/5 — Crashing randomly *2021-08-29, version 2.2.6* Your stupid game keeps crashing u idiots I made a better game than u when I was 14 y’all are adults and can’t make a proper game just sad ### 1/5 — Bad *2021-07-03, version 2.2.1* This game has the WORST movement I have ever seen in my 10 years of playing hundreds of video games ### 1/5 — It doesnt let me play *2021-03-23, version 2.2.0* Everytime i load up the game it say new update but when i resatrt the app and download the update says the same thing hot trash ### 1/5 — Mm *2021-03-15, version 2.1.8* Bosses are way too overpowered it’s almost impossible to defeat them you have to take them out or nerf them ### 1/5 — I can’t freaking join *2021-02-21, version 2.1.8* For some reason I can not join and It says “GET THE LATEST VERSION ON THE APP STORE” but it won’t let me do something called UPDATE so idk why but SOMEONE HELP! ### 1/5 — Repetitive and freezes *2021-02-15, version 2.1.8* I’ve played this game for a while after finding it on TikTok and its not that boring of a game but it’s really repetitive and like every 10 minutes it freezes and crashes ### 1/5 — Why *2021-02-13, version 2.1.8* Why do I die every time I get all 3 to max like dude ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Honest Awesome Idea *2024-04-13, version 2.3.89998* Crystals? alive? fighting? upgrades? more crystals = more power? color??? bosses???????? best thing ever ### 5/5 — Really good *2022-02-02, version 2.3.6* The dev is nice and I can tell they worked hard on the game, The community is also welcoming and friendly. ### 5/5 — Great game *2022-01-22* This is a great game but the controls a little hard if you could make it where u drag where u look this would make the game a ton better because when I tried this game out there was these mountains and it was almost impossible to get up if you can’t look or see it ### 5/5 — Love it *2022-01-21, version 2.3.6* To me it’s perfect ### 5/5 — Loving it *2022-01-17, version 2.3.6* I love the game it’s really goodI love how it involves crystals as the powers ### 5/5 — I CANT UPDATE SO I CANT PLAY *2021-09-13, version 2.2.61* :(( ### 5/5 — Ayo anyone come here from that tik tok from him a long time ago? *2021-07-20, version 2.2.2* Anyone? ### 5/5 — Really fun game *2021-06-24, version 2.2.1* I have been playing this game for nearly a year now and it’s helped me through lockdown Overall its a pretty realistic game which makes it even more fun Well done ### 5/5 — I’m rating five stars so I can help the game but... *2021-04-08, version 2.2.0* The game is fun but I really wish you would nerf the boss as even if you are maxed out it can one shot you ### 5/5 — What if I was a monster *2021-03-27, version 2.2.0* asaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
