## What is Stand & Fight?

Merge items to fight through hordes of enemies!

Key Features:

Guns and sidearms - get different weapons and sidearms and upgrade them, from shotgun and katana to minigun and chainsaw!

Backpack + Chests - get random equipment and organize it in your backpack.

Merge + Craft - merge items into gold versions and craft them into more powerful items & weapons. Begin with a shotgun and finish with a nanoblade launcher!

Full 3D action and backgrounds - enemies attack from different directions, backgrounds are different and deep, there are diferrent bioms, different daytime and even weather!

Supply Boxes, Collections & Daily Quests - get lots of additional rewards for completing missions, crafting items and defeating enemies!

Lots of different enemies - you'll meet hordes of zombies, running or jumping on you, alien soldiers, alien snipers and flamethrowers, drones; kamikaze bots and dangerous robots, giant brutes, fortified turrets and even tanks! Different bioms have different sets of enemies, and enemies have different behaviour and stats (they're not just jumping bags!).

Hardcore action - blast zombies into pieces, burn them wih flamethrowers, throw grenades and cut them with lasers. Rockets roar as they accelarate, molotov's burn the ground, minigun bullets ricochet from the walls! It's much better then just throw icons into casual 2D goblins!

So what's up? Embark on an adventure through a land overrun by zombies and aliens. Stand up and fight, heroes!

### 3/5 — Entertaining but the commercials!!!!!!

*2026-07-16*

Fun game but the commercial upgrades are over a minute long

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2026-06-16*

Fun game and easy to progress on. The only thing I don’t like is you get the same basic cards in the beginning and they don’t really improve much by the time the game ends. Sometimes the cards are worthless and you spend the currency and still wind up with nothing. I’d like to see better weapon development and have that appear more often.

### 1/5 — Ad removal scam

*2026-06-01*

I liked the premise of this game and saw all the reviews mentioning the ads. I went ahead and paid for the $40 premium forced ad and reward removal. However after several restarts- the game is still making me watch videos. In the process of getting a refund and deleting the game.

**Developer response:** Sorry for the ruined experience, it doesn't behave like that usually (there are hundreds of premium users)! It's the first time we hear something like that happen and we will try to understand why it happens. We thoroughly test every major update and the functuanality of premium is one of our key tests. :(

### 3/5 — Игра и набор с новыми рецептами

*2026-05-15*

Игра отличная. Всем советую копить 1250 на чи.  С ней вы котиком пройдите сюжет .А теперь про наборы. Уважаемый разработчик, пожалуйста, сделай простую версию вашего платного набора ах эффектов стихий, чтобы можно было собрать все вещи и закрыть пустые ячейки чертежей, а то игра кажется незавершенной. И да, 2000 — это много, за эти бабки можно купить полноценную игру в Стиме.

**Developer response:** Она не может улучшать все предметы, потому что за это надо платить кристаллами. Стоимость улучшения в среднем как 1 сундук. Улучшил один = не получил 3 других предмета. Её умение позволяет собирать самые редкие предметы для коллекции - это да, но даже с Чи пройти игру за пару часов не выйдет. Причем здесь пейтувин, объясните?

### 1/5 — Nice , but not to nice

*2026-03-19, version 1.0.7*

After lever 15 and up the sound in my iPhone 16 pro max stop, just like an auto stop, mute , nada, why????  Sucks

### 2/5 — I wish…I wish…I wish…

*2026-02-01*

I wish this game wouldn’t freeze SOOO MUCH!!! I’m really trying to enjoy it but…

### 3/5 — A good game with one major issue

*2026-01-29*

I enjoy this game a lot. The merge genre was always entertaining to me and the zombie apocalypse theme works well too. The graphics are also great. The game is almost perfect. 
“But you reviewed it 3 stars. What’s wrong with it?”
Crashes. Lots of crashes. Freezes up my phone kinda crashes. Seizure inducing graphic reset kinda crashes. It’s every 20-30 minutes of this game. 
“At least you don’t lose your progress on your runs.”
False. 
1. If your game crashes, it sets you back at least one wave. Any good gear you may have merged or acquired is now gone and the pool is reset. 
2. The crashes are most frequent on the “Vault” runs. These are limited entry levels than earn you gems and tokens in exchange for a green key that’s not exactly easy to get/farm without a lot of luck or time investment. Specifically in this crash scenario, you are not given an opportunity to rejoin the run, rendering the effort you went thru to get the key useless. 
Do I like this game in concept? Yes. Do I like this game in practice? Yes. Do I wish there was an answer to the crashes every 20 minutes? Absolutely.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the detailed review! We're trying to fix the crashes, we were stuck but now we've got some new ideas and we'll make an update in February focused solely on this issue.

### 3/5 — Comprehensive Review

*2026-01-27*

I want to hit on what I like and don’t like about this game and why.

Things I like:
-The weapon merging and leveling aspect of this feature. 
   This shows me the developer thought about the growth and longevity of this game.
-Ads that reward for watching. 
   This is nice to earn an edge in the combat that you otherwise wouldn’t have.
-Art style.
   This is different from the other games that are the same play style as this one.

Things I don’t like: (this affected star rating)
-Forced ads with no rewards.
   The number one fast way for me to delete a game is this fact. This game is boarding on that fringe.
-Uniqueness.
   Besides the art style, this game has nothing going for it. Why should I want to continue to play this game?

I promised an improved review and here it is. I am carious, Developer, what is the future of this game and did this review help you in anyway?

**Developer response:** Hey, yes, we value all of the detailed opinions about our game. We do think about adding a story mode or story missions to this game so it will become a prequel to Uprising: Survivor RPG as it was meant to be. And about the forced ads, maybe it's something unbelievable but when we've tried the version without them everything became worse, revenue, playtime, even retention was lower - so we had to revert it. That's odd, we know, but the numbers speak for themselves.

### 2/5 — Not Broken Game

*2026-01-22*

What ever you did seemed to fixed the game. I will play it for a while and provide honest feedback later.

**Developer response:** Dear Player, 

We test our games thoroughly and meticulously and this release is online for more than a month. You are the first who came to us with such an issue.

We've tried to reproduce this bug and we've found out that it can happen on the first launch of the game and after that the game runs just fine. I think you did but have you tried to reopen it again? 

Also, what device do you use?

Best wishes,
Verarium

### 1/5 — Broken Game

*2026-01-13*

Installed game, opened the app. Handled the screens through the privacy policies and what not. Then instead of loading in the screen went black and nothing. For the Developer: maybe you should had spent more time in alpha testing prior to rush launching your game.
