*2026-06-21, version 4.83*

I’ve never played halo because I’m a Nintendo owner but this is perfect and I only played the halo infinite blue vs red version and it’s perfect

### 5/5 — I think it’s a great game

*2026-06-20, version 4.83*

I think this is a good game it can be a little hard sometimes but that’s nothing to see as a big problem and it’s very fun it’s just like halo firefight

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2026-06-18, version 4.83*

Halo hype is real rn. This game is so dope for a pixel mobile halo game. I love it. Hope they continue to update and add stuff. A story mode would be a dope idea maybe. Or more game modes but the game now is stills 5 stars! Great job!!

### 5/5 — Halo on the go!

*2026-06-14, version 4.83*

If you love halo and are not at home to play it, download this game!!! It’s got missions, daily multiplayer pre set games, firefight games, forge, and customization options for your spartan! You can also join clans! Halo will be with you wherever you go now!

### 5/5 — Cool

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-05-16, version 4.83*

It’s a great, good fun game to put on, some of the cosmetics can be a bit grindy but the currency if paid for is good value, the gameplay is fun, and it has better progression than Halo infinite

### 5/5 — Nostalgia

### 4/5 — Game pad support

*2026-05-02, version 4.82*

Attempting to turn on game pad support instantly crashes the game. It’s super fun but I want to use my backbone to play.

### 5/5 — Best game for halo gameres

*2026-04-15, version 4.81*

Is amazing that game app is so wholesome

*2026-04-10, version 4.81*

For an unofficial, third-party Indie game, this is awesome. You can pass time and/or relieve stress Halo-style and the experience never gets old,  especially with the regular updates and playlist tweaks. Highly recommend to any gamer.

### 1/5 — 1 star until they fix the servers on iOS, would be 5 stars

They need to fix this as soon as possible! They’re losing people from this. Do what the people want!

### 1/5 — Trash graphics

*2025-07-19, version 4.67*

Way to much like halo has the flood and the covenant.

### 1/5 — Why

*2021-11-20, version 2.79*

The game needs to fix on its bugs on hard mode like sometimes I can't jump or even move and it's very annoying. 💀

### 1/5 — BEST HALO APP EVER BUT...

*2021-07-23, version 2.67*

Ihhu  I love this game it’s the best I even bought the legendary VIP pass and the arbiter as well as playable elite. I had 3rd of the helmets unlocked and 75% of the other armor like the torsos,shoulders,visors and emblems.I bought maps and made forge maps that took hours and now today that all changed cause I lost connection with the control center and this app has no invert or appearance changes so when I tried to reconnect my account my but I lost everything it was erased I’ve done invested about 90$ dollars and lots of time on this game please help me fix my favorite game 👎:(💯 or help me restore my progress!!!

### 1/5 — Pésimo servicio

*2020-01-05*

El juego era divertido hasta que no me quiso dar estrellitas, mi amigo dice que se pasaron de dick y opino lo mismo, estaremos en huelga hasta que nos den estrellitas.

Besos y abrazos, un saludo. 

-KUCHAU & QCHAU

**Developer response:** I'm sorry to hear you didn't liked to play the game, have you tried our last updates? It fixes a lot of issues, add more game modes and the Forge to create your own maps and to share them with our community :)

### 2/5 — Terrible Controls. Long Ads

*2026-09-06, version 4.87*

The controls are never synced, and every game comes with a 2 minute add at the end. It’s just another shotty phone game

### 2/5 — VERY UNSTABLE (sadly)

*2026-06-16, version 4.83*

I love the game. I love Halo, but when i load up the app and go to play a match of Firefight (or anything else)… the game crashes. If i open it up and try again, it crashes. If this was fixed, i would definitely have to raise the rating.

### 5/5 — Questions

*2026-07-09, version 4.84*

This game is unbelievable fun and addictive,but I was wondering if you could add a few things
1:helmet attachments

2:advanced coloring

3:multiplayer firefight with maybe a infinite mode

4:zombies mode where one person has a energy sword and is using their sangheii skin,if one of the Spartans dies then he turns into a elite with the zombie,round last 5 minutes 

That’s it but I love this game and I can’t get out of it,thank you for this masterpiece
