That’s it. Just ads ### 2/5 — Adds *2025-06-08* Great game fun easy to learn and challenging but the constant adds are making me want to delete the game ### 2/5 — Latest Update : GAME CRASHES ENDLESSLY *2025-03-30, version 2.1.3* All Battles and Trials crash before you can finish the event. The latest update fixed what...? ### 3/5 — Good game but *2024-09-30, version 2.0.1* Good game but I feel the battle stage is way too long to complete just to advance to the next level. 10 mins or a bit less would be ideal. ### 2/5 — Advertisement after advertisement *2024-08-24* I understand that a free game needs revenue but playing two adds in a row is ridiculous. I would have consider paying to have the adds removed but too irritated to continue playing to see if I like it enough to pay. Watching a 30 second add and waiting for it to continue is ok.. but having that add end just to be forced to watch another is a little much… 2 in a row ### 3/5 — Where to start *2024-08-12* Been long time player here needs a huge update on game. Alliance stuff is all types of bugged out . Won’t let me link to Facebook which I play a lot of game via Facebook link . Where is the support for this game . But if you want to spend time on little game for times where total boredom. This would be good game . ### 2/5 — Lots of bugs *2024-04-30* Internal countdown/refresh is faulty, like the daily reward can only claim once and never refreshed, in game progress time won’t continue after you leave the game, makes it useless. Progression requirements is very unbalanced, meaning your capability is far off from what’s required, makes it impossible to upgrade, but this either shows they just roll out without deep calculation, or they just want ads money, either is… you know.. small timer. They just combine two existing game into one and lots of ads. ### 3/5 — Great game but broken *2024-04-22, version 1.9.9* It’s fun but very broken when you get to the last building upgrades and the difficulty is very unbalanced. I’m wondering when they’re going to fix it. It’s been 5 months already. ### 4/5 — Really fun but buggy *2024-02-29* It’s a great game, but definitely buggy when you get toward the end. I’ve maxed out all the buildings, and bought the gem pass, and now everything is broken. I’m hoping they fix it soon. But it’s still fun. ### 3/5 — Good game but too many bugs *2024-02-08* 1. The time for building something won’t count if you close the app 2. It shows error when I try to connect with Facebook 3. Connect issue. When I try to change my name or I try to check the ranking board, it shows that please check your internet. (There is definitely no issue with my internet because I could still charge money to the game) ### 3/5 — I don’t like the new update *2024-02-05, version 1.9.9* I downloaded the newest update and now the shop doesn’t update daily and I can’t get daily rewards. I don’t like that the upgrade for the weapons isn’t automatic like it use to be. ### 4/5 — Gets boring *2023-12-31, version 1.9.9* Get boring overall good game ### 2/5 — Broken Broken Broken Broken *2023-11-08, version 1.9.7* AFK resource production broken, combat system broken, gear system broken, gear merging system broken. Has the potential of being a good game. ### 3/5 — Deserves a 5 *2023-11-04* This thing really deserves five stars. It’s fun to play, they’ve managed to combine at least two different games into one. I just really enjoy it. The reason it doesn’t have five stars from me is that this morning I paid 10 bucks to eliminate ads. they did not go away and within probably 15 minutes I was offered the opportunity to pay to eliminate ads. I checked to make sure that the previous purchase completed, and it did. I really try to make a point of paying for games that are well-developed and I enjoy. But it really bothers me that I paid the money and did not get the benefit. ### 3/5 — Time Stopped *2023-10-01, version 1.9.5* My game for a week won’t let me watch ads for upgrades … this affects some other aspects .. progression has slothed to a positive. Bummer. ### 2/5 — Fun game, but glitched *2023-10-01, version 1.9.5* All the bonuses have been nullified due due to no videos. Basically pay to play. Unless you want to sink money in the game don’t bother. ### 2/5 — Not up to par with competitors *2023-10-01* - they VERY RARELY do updates - they do the updates you barely notice any differences in the game - you need to allow more upgrade slots like DOOM. It just gets boring fast - no storyline at all - other than upgrades, there is no progression. Some of the WORST AND LAZY WORL DESIGNS I’ve ever seen in a game. -no customization at all! - the cost of the store items are RIDICULOUSLY HIGH for what you get. And for a game that barely ever updates. What’s the point!? - THE PAUSE BUTTON NEVER WORKS! It’s on the screen, so either fix it so we can USE IT or get rid of it. This is an example of how even minor bugs are never updated. As is, don”t waste your time. The game and design team are just not on the same level as the competitors in the arena battle games. ### 2/5 — Problem after update *2023-09-30, version 1.9.5* I was really enjoy this game until updated. I can’t equipped all items and upgrade. Please make fix and make sync game center. I can not reinstall because of lost all my data(lvl98) and items. ### 2/5 — Was a good game. Now stuck on “level 8 upgrade” *2023-08-08* I really liked this game. But now it’s telling me I need to upgrade something to level 8. I’ve leveled up everything that I can. I saw another review that was like this from 5 months ago. The developer responded that it will be fixed in a patch that was supposed to happen 2 months ago. Why is this still happening? If this keeps up, I might have to report the app and try to get my money back that I’ve spent. Very disappointing. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — LOADED WITH ADS *2025-01-12, version 2.0.2* FUN GAME BUT UNINSTALLED EVERY 3 MIN YOU ARE FORCED TO WAtCH AN ADD. APPLE SHOULD REMOVE THESE TYPES OF GAMES. DO NOT DOWNLOAD> ### 1/5 — waste of time *2024-04-07* Full of ads. They will force you to buy their no ads bundle because you’ll get ads every zerg battle you do ### 1/5 — What’s going on? *2024-02-07* Your countdown timer for supply boxes, gems and offline revenue rewards keeps resetting and not giving any free rewards? It just keeps clocking over, this keeps happening. Seems a bit dodgy! ### 1/5 — Fraud *2023-12-22, version 1.9.9* Ads scam. Everyone should be reimbursed by Apple for being scammed out of money to remove ads. ### 1/5 — Can’t get past the second Zerg attack *2023-12-15, version 1.9.9* Bugged, I hit level 19 and can’t do anything. Game is bricked since there’s no new upgrade to choose.. ### 1/5 — Upgrade timer doesn’t work *2023-12-11, version 1.9.9* Game is decent but the upgrade timer doesn’t work I have a 6 hour timer that isn’t moving because I have to actually sit in the game for 6 hours. Major issue if you can’t progress because the upgrade timer doesn’t go down. ### 1/5 — Adds *2023-09-29* Please fix add to get extra weapon stuff since last update it says bonus loading then says no video available why is this what’s wrong with the game now broken ### 1/5 — Fun at first…But then….. *2023-08-20, version 1.9.1* The game is really fun when you first start. After a couple hours of play you can’t progress unless you spend a lot of money because they make the chapters so overly powerful the only way you can clear it is to spent lots of money or possibly farm for 1-2 weeks just to clear a chapter. ### 1/5 — Broken game *2023-07-17, version 1.9.1* Game was fun, but now it seems broken. There is no server connection for the second day in the row. Facebook login from another device doesn’t work. Account recovery is impossible. I’ll give it another day and then uninstall. ### 1/5 — Game crashes *2023-07-12, version 1.9.1* Game crashes game crashes game crashes. Did I mention the game crashes like all the time. Game crashes delete this game because it crashes all the time. Don’t get me start with glitches but seriously the game crashes all the time. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Buen juego *2024-03-08* Como le quito los anuncios? ### 5/5 — Countdown Timer *2023-12-14* The level 8 issue was fixed. Unfortunately there are now countdown timers. That is fine in principal but these only countdown when you are actively playing and some of my timers are over 24 hours. There’s boats that can help but I’m just not getting enough of those. It’s still fun to squish Zerg but I’ve lost the fun of developing my base. Fun little game until you get stuck. It wants a level 8 upgrade to advance. This doesn’t seem to exist. ### 5/5 — Insane mobile game *2023-10-24, version 1.9.7* This game is so good, have had it on my IPhone and due to having no wifi most of the time I’ve been playing nonstop. About to download on my ipad!! Keep up the good work!! ### 5/5 — This Game is a Blast!!!! *2023-07-18, version 1.9.1* This game is a blast! However the developers have been increasingly upgrading the weapons which is causing my game to crash constantly. ### 5/5 — Nice *2023-06-27, version 1.8.7* It nice ### 5/5 — Ads keep freezing *2023-06-14* Love the game but selecting any ad freezes the game. Have to shut down the whole game and restart. Could we get a fix please? ### 5/5 — Solid game *2023-05-25* It’s honestly pretty good so far, I wish the time on the battles was a little shorter and that when you upgrade buildings it actually showed you what building name and what it would change/upgrade for you. Also it seems to ramp up in difficulty really quick. And 20 min each battle by the time you’re done adds up if you have to go back and redo them to get the exp you need to upgrade. But all in all it’s fun, it’s different, challenging, and enjoyable. Keep it up! ### 5/5 — New *2023-04-28, version 1.7.9* Just installed and played for about 30 min now it’s actually not bad and so far not many ads either ### 5/5 — Nice One *2023-04-11, version 1.7.2* Speed & power yo! ### 5/5 — h *2023-04-10, version 1.7.2* i like a build batter --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
