Don’t bother ### 1/5 — Why *2024-04-23* Why can’t you hold down the button to ipgrade why do you have to tap ### 1/5 — The worst game *2023-11-03, version 1.1* I’m stuck on level 29 because of this high numbered barrels Like20k keeps getting me trapped on level 29 ### 3/5 — Good for a while *2025-01-29, version 1.2.4* It would be good if the devs came up with a way of upgrading more quickly. Currently I have way too many coins and upgrading the Damage and Firerate one at a time is just painful! ### 3/5 — Fun game *2025-01-04* Just waiting for the next upgrade, i been at the max weapon since the early summer ### 3/5 — Fun game, but needs some work *2024-01-25* This game is simple, fun, and a great stress reliever. You gain coins from shooting the barrels (both regular and premium currency) to level up your damage, fire rate, and coin drop multiplier to progress through more difficult levels. You can also spend premium currency to upgrade your gun. However, once your gun is upgraded fully and you continue progressing through more levels, you’ll hit a roadblock and levels become near impossible. Upgrades become extremely expensive which entails running the same level over and over again to make enough coins for just 1 upgrade, which ultimately make little to no difference in gun efficiency. Would definitely play again if the game got updated with more gun upgrades, etc. but for now I’m uninstalling. ### 3/5 — Fun for a little bit *2024-01-04, version 1.1.1* To start with this isn't a bad game at the beginning, but once you get towards level 85 it gets IMPOSSIBLE. Grinding on this later in the game takes far too long and once you've got all the guns the gems you have left over are useless, so bear this in mind if you were planning on buying any gems. I have over 1300 gems that i can't do anything with, also I haven't paid for any myself so it shows that you don't need to spend any extra money. Message to the devs: if you want to improve this game you might want to add more options to use gems, or new ways to upgrade, or even new guns for that matter, because once you have all the guns and your late in the game there's currently no reason to buy anything or even keep playing as you get bored playing before you ever get chance to do anything. ### 4/5 — Good Enough *2024-06-20* It scratches the itch that i had after watching all those Ebony adds, the UI is decent, the graphics are good. it's a game i play when i am waiting for someone to get back from the bathroom because there is very little depth or strategy in it. But as a barrel shooter. it's good enough ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — FINALLY!! *2024-10-06* Finally found a real game that is like the ads on social media. It’s a fun little game, great way to burn some time, and free. I recommend it to anyone who wanted to ever shoot the barrels without some other ridiculous game tied to it. Thanks developers!!! ### 5/5 — Update please *2024-05-08* Update please ### 5/5 — 请开发者适当增加游戏的可玩性 *2024-04-10* 可以给shooter增加血条，不让shooter一碰到木桶就失去生命； 木桶上可以增加威胁性：比如某些木桶可以发射子弹； 增加武器库里武器的种类，现有的可选的几种武器全是机枪一类的，过于单调 游戏背景只有一种背景图片，可以增加几种背景图片，视觉上改善可玩性效果 ### 5/5 — I usually never write reviews *2024-01-19* But I had to write one for this game. I couldn’t find a single game that was a barrel shooter actually. This is was the closest to that, and strictly that. No hidden games or anything, completely agree with the other review here. However I can see why just that aspect isn’t the most hooking game but it is still as advertised and a great play. I see lots of room for upgrades and stuff tho so I can’t wait to see where it goes. ### 5/5 — GREAT ENJOYABLE TIME WASTER!! *2023-11-03* If you are looking for a simple Barrel Shooter and or got duped by Evonys deceptive ads thinking you were getting a Barrel Shooter but instead you have another farming piece of crap app….this game is nothing like Evony! Thank you Lord!! straight and simple, shooting barrels, advancing to next levels and gun/coin upgrades! easy Peezy! at the time of this review, I’m currently approaching level 80…I have the best gun with x500 damage and 200 damage upgrades….fire rate is at 68 BPS….and coins are at 10,000% i’ll look forward to more updates! Keep up the good work creator filur! ### 4/5 — Start level with rock not working *2024-05-10, version 1.2.1* Fun game, easy to play but unfortunately ads don’t work on this game and I can’t start the level with the rock, I’ll 5 star it once it’s fixed thanks! ### 4/5 — It’s not solitaire! *2023-10-01* To relax and focus --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
