I know lite versions are supposed to be shorter than the full one, but not this short. Not worth the ten seconds of downloading. ### 1/5 — Wow *2009-06-03* I was surprised. Only 90 secs in the lite version. At least throw 2 levels. I saw nothing that I would spend money on in that time. It's probably cause the rest of the game is boring. ### 1/5 — Don't Bother With This... *2009-06-01* Most lite versions give you at least a small portion of the functionality of the full game. This game, I kid you not, offers about 90 seconds of extremely uninspired and meaningless play. To be fair, the graphics look pretty good for what they are, but this version offers NO insight as to what the full version is, unless the full version is the same bit of drivel over and over again. Thanks to the developers for the thought, but this goes down as a giant FAIL. ### 1/5 — Boring *2009-05-29* Control is stiff, and takes way to long to attack/defend. When arrows hit the shield,they simply dissapear, and when you kick a guy, it serves as a stun. But why stun someone WHEN YOU CAN KILL THE ENEMY IN ONE HIT? Controlling the Spartan is difficult, due to the directional arrows being too close together. Going back to attacking, unlike In most games, swinging the sword is very sluggish, and by the time you attack or defend, you have already been hit by an arrow. Don't bother with this dissapointment, Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers would be a better buy if you own an Xbox 360 ### 1/5 — Awful *2009-05-28* This game is terrible, the animation is tastelessly gory and everything feels like it's in slow mo. They promise updates, but this is just fundamentally dull, I don't care about upgrading my armor if the game is sluggish and repetitive after 20 seconds. And what's up with the developer giving themseleves a 5star review? Fail! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Horrible *2013-11-09* Regenerate health for every level sucky game ### 1/5 — Read this please please please *2013-10-06* Read this. Make your spartan have a place to live and have him fight in the Persian war at the battle of 300 and the pollipinesian war. Make it have a military camp and levels so your warrior can grow from the age if 7, the training age for military camp. Have there b people of Athens and Persia, and have the Persians b taller than the Spartans like in real life. Come on guys u should have known that Spartans used spears and swords just for back up. Make a map and ambushes on other city-states. Please make changes I would buy this game for a lot of money. Nice graphics though. Read this please. I'll b waiting for an update. THIS IS SPARTA!!!!! ### 1/5 — Worst game ever *2013-07-27* About 30 seconds of game then it is over ### 1/5 — Terrific (not) *2013-04-30* Hate everything in it! ### 1/5 — Suked *2012-12-31* It suked it was a peice of crap. ### 1/5 — Piece of crap *2012-11-28* It is exactly what my title said it is. I owned the game for 5 minutes and I played it and now I know why all of the reviews say that stuff. Now, if you excuse me, I am going to delete it from my iPhone right now.... ### 1/5 — Horrible *2012-11-04* My eyes hurt it was so bad ### 1/5 — Bad *2012-02-11* The armor is 🌟 the swords r 🌟 and the second level is hard Is this game worth it?

Put some more battles sounds and epic kill scenes. I look forward to buying the full version, 3/5 ### 2/5 — Eh *2010-07-07* This would be a fun game if the controls actualy worked. I'm pressing the sheild button but there's a 50/50 chance the the game won't let me block! This is not a problem on any other apps so it's not my iPod. ### 2/5 — Bad. *2009-06-02* Zombiville did the same gameplay about two or three months earlier and pulled it off much better. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
