Got hooked with the first one! Best phone game imo addictive and love the armor choices. This is a great game! ### 3/5 — Multiplayer crashes almost ruined my game *2024-09-27, version 1.24* The game is beyond better than the first one with the level of customization and vehicles and pets. However it has a major flaw. Sometimes when I join multiplayer matches some players cause my app to crash and every time I try to play multiplayer it will crash my app. No matter what device I log my account on it will keep crashing multiplayer matches on the device that it’s happened to. Otherwise the game play, graphics, music and everything else is amazing! ### 5/5 — Amazing Hyper Ultra Deluxe HD *2024-09-24, version 1.24* A great sequel, a lot of new content and game modes ### 4/5 — One of the best but needs an update *2024-09-22, version 1.24* Firstly this is one of the best games I’ve played I liked it better than Elden Ring, but it’s needs an update. The screen is black when you load it, but you can just exit and open it up to for the game to properly load. Then there’s this issue for me, I want to help my brother out in multiplayer but the game decides to kick me out every time I try something on multiplayer. ### 5/5 — Great and amazing Keep up the good work, but where is Star warfare3 *2024-08-01, version 1.24* Dude it’s been more than five years. Where is the third game and sorry if I was mean ### 4/5 — Good game *2024-07-18, version 1.24* One of my favorite games to play as a kid Wish they kept updating it though ### 5/5 — A good game *2024-07-03, version 1.24* I this game ### 5/5 — Super cool game, should definitely reconsider on fixing it! *2024-06-18, version 1.24* The game is hella fun especially that my bro put me on and we used to grind to get the good stuff, I do hope yall reconsider on fixing the game back up it’ll be an awesome come back !! ### 4/5 — Revive pls? *2024-05-11, version 1.24* I love this game but I wish their was someone to play with ### 5/5 — Back to the Chinese market *2024-04-22, version 1.24* Why is this game removed from the app store in China? ### 5/5 — Update it now *2024-03-28, version 1.24* Update date it now ### 5/5 — It’s Great, but, Multiplayer doesn’t work… *2024-03-20, version 1.24* I’ve playing this for years but this is my first IPhone, and I’ve found out that multiplayer doesn’t work on IPhones. I noticed that the last update was during September of ‘23, so I’m hoping that the devs see this and fix it soon. EDIT, that update must have been a dream or something, it’s been 5 years! ### 5/5 — BEST GAME EVER! *2024-01-22, version 1.24* this game is the most intense and mostly the graphics,it's look like a video game,and the design of monsters and costumization of character is so incredible,this may be the best game I ever played with. ### 5/5 — I miss the original *2024-01-17, version 1.24* The original StarWarfare alien invasion was way more fun but sadly isn’t playable right now because of some minor bugs and issues. I love the original, this one is still fun though. 6/10 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Game is completely dead *2025-09-20, version 1.24* I looked through just about every game mode in co’op and pvp and literally no one is online.

There are a few recreations of this game on discord servers and on roblox if you look hard enough, almost all mobile support for newer devices is fried. ### 5/5 — We love this *2025-08-09, version 1.24* Pls don’t forgot this game,make more content its best game ### 5/5 — IOS MULTIPLAYER WHEN?( Help) *2025-08-03, version 1.24* I love this game it’s one of the best games ever made I love this game and I just recently just downloaded it back and as soon as I got, I grabbed my credit card and bought a 50$ bucks worth of crystal and regretted nothing, Until I tried to play multiplayer and every time I would try to load into a match my game would just crash. I have a IPhone 15, and would love to know why did it crash also it does feel like it just wasted 50$ bucks.
