It seems the only way you can even win is if you either pay to win or watch ads. And even then when you do either, it's still hard to get a win. How are we supposed to progress to the other nights if you can barely even get through night 1? ### 2/5 — Meh *2026-08-30, version 1.51.000* Love it . But the ads 3 whole mins of ads just for a reward . Its almost forcing you to pay for no ads and I’m sure there’ll be ads after purchasing no ads ### 3/5 — Buttons don’t work *2026-08-24, version 1.51.000* I like the concept but basically buttons done work for like anything like bruh ### 4/5 — Online gelsin *2026-08-23, version 1.51.000* Bir puan kırdım online yok hani arkadaşlarla takım olup oynayabilsrk onlinde yaratıklar daha güçlü olsa veya lan odaları olsa aynı internete çok iyi olur LÜTFEN BU MESAJI CİDİYE ALIN ### 2/5 — Ad to win *2026-08-23, version 1.51.000* This game sucks, no matter how much UPGRADING you do youll always lose somehow- unless you watch ads to even get a chance. BOOOOOOOO ### 1/5 — Avoid *2026-08-22, version 1.51.000* Fun for a while but with the ads continually happening more frequently it just disturbs the game. As you keep watching the ads just get longer. The in game promotion to get more gems to download the other company games is waste of time as it’s a repetitive cycle and you won’t be able to redeem. Honestly just avoid. ### 1/5 — Fix ads *2026-08-21, version 1.51.000* Fix the ads that are nonstop constantly. It’s incredibly too much. You can’t even enjoy playing the game. It would be an amazing game otherwise. ### 1/5 — .. *2026-08-19, version 1.51.000* The game is pretty good, but because there’s no way to save your progress, I’m giving it one star. ### 2/5 — WATCH AD TO WIN *2026-08-18, version 1.51.000* Would be a better game if you didn’t have a spam watch ads to win. Such a fantastic game idea and all but come on ### 1/5 — Need to watch advertisment *2026-08-18, version 1.51.000* You cannot win without watching advertisment. Also their ads are too long, waste of time. ### 1/5 — Should be a 0 *2026-08-18, version 1.51.000* I haven’t even been able to play the game. For the 13 minutes of gameplay i have sat through 30 minutes of ads so far. It’s INSANE how many ads are here. This may have been fun. It’s bloated with ads ### 1/5 — Fun for a month *2026-08-18, version 1.51.000* Lack of updates killed the game. Grind to the end, spend a couple of bucks to avoid ads. Company went and just made another version of the game and forgot about this. Amazing concept and am looking forward to someone figuring it out. Also so many glitches but they help you grind so I didn’t mind lol ### 4/5 — Glitch *2026-08-16, version 1.51.000* I love this game but there is some hard levels I can’t get past but I’ve got video evidence and would like to see if it can be sorted ### 3/5 — Hey *2026-08-16, version 1.51.000* Make so you play with friends ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-08-14, version 1.51.000* I tried playing but keep getting ads, monsters are way to strong and overpowered, the only way you can actually win is by paying loads of money for this pos game, paid to have ads removed and didn’t work at all ### 1/5 — I didn't like it *2026-08-14, version 1.51.000* I didn't like it ### 2/5 — Mar jugadores *2026-08-12, version 1.50.021* Cuando lo van a poner online para jugar con amigos lo descargo y lo vuelvo a borrar por eso ### 2/5 — Ads To Win *2026-08-12, version 1.50.021* The game is impossible unless you watch ads. I paid for the full version with NO ads and you STILL have to watch ads. Don’t waste your money and keep moving along. ### 1/5 — Scammed *2026-08-12, version 1.50.021* This low quality app will find any and every way to waste your time. I usually dont care if i have to watch an ad to gain an advantage when i play but i noticed that the ads were getting longer. Like 2-3 minute ads. Like really dude really. So i bought the no ads for 10$ thing thinking good now i can play get the supply drops and have fun. Nope spent the money still get ads WTF. game is a scam do not but any in app purchases save your money and matter of fact same your time dont download this game! ### 1/5 — Balanceado *2026-08-12* Jogo completamente desbalanceado, os monstro imortal impossível passar de fase ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Insane ad use *2026-08-31, version 1.51.000* Game only works if you constantly watch ads ### 1/5 — HECK NO *2026-08-29, version 1.51.000* It’s so sad bc it’s such a great game but you literally can’t win without playing ads SO MANY ADSthis has to be my 3rd or 4th time redownloading it because I want it to be better but it just gets worse and worse. ### 1/5 — Cannot recover account *2026-08-27, version 1.51.000* I cannot recover my account after deleting the app accidentally and I spent for nothing. Not like others when you accidentally delete it you can still recover your account so it’s not worth it paying for without ADS ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-08-26, version 1.51.000* Paid to get ads off and there are still ads ### 1/5 — To win need watch ads *2026-08-26, version 1.51.000* Without watching ads or donate you will never win in this game ### 1/5 — Wayyyy too many ads to win *2026-08-26, version 1.51.000* Alll you do is watch ads to play. Absolutely love the concept but over the ads. ### 1/5 — Incredibly difficult *2026-08-25, version 1.51.000* I used to play this game ages ago, now it is nearly impossible to pass night 1. You have to watch ads to get resources to get you even close to winning. Ads run close to a minute, with some of them being two full minutes. More time spent on ads than playing the game. Disappointing ### 1/5 — Adds to win. *2026-08-23, version 1.51.000* How it has such a high rating is beyond me.. You’re forced to watch ads like crazy just to play the game. You get ads in the middle of the game. The interrupt the game and you’re forced to watch more ads winning and losing. You’ll probably watch 10 ads plus justin the one game alone. ### 1/5 — Drowning with ads *2026-08-23, version 1.51.000* Game is watch to win. Im not joking game literally forces you to watch ads to play and don’t expect to win if you don’t. It’s has so much potential yet it’s blocked by disrespectful amount of ads. Things like this tick me off so i give this game 3-10. wouldn’t recommend and I’m being generous. Ps If you’re gonna make people pay for an ad free experience. Actually make it an ad free experience these mobile apps are nothing but scams. ### 1/5 — Too many looping ads *2026-08-22, version 1.51.000* Could barely start the first night before a looping add for some idle city builder took over. I understand ads are how they make money, but let us at least try out the game before burying is in them. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good game *2026-08-01, version 1.50.021* I like it it’s fun it’s a cool Game you just hide for the soul keepers I know I’m rusty but I’m good recommend getting it ### 5/5 — TikTok stole the game *2026-07-27, version 1.50.021* Game so good TikTok stole it 😛 ### 5/5 — Loving it *2026-06-08, version 1.50.021* So far it’s a top tier game I love a challenge. ### 5/5 — Muito anúncio *2026-04-30* O jogo é divertido, ter anúncios é normal, mas esse jogo estrapola!!! ### 5/5 — ONE OF THE BEST *2026-03-21, version 1.50.021* IVE PLAYED THIS GAME SCENCE I WAS 4 AND IM NOW 12 I LOVE THIS GAME ### 5/5 — Spooky *2026-03-10, version 1.50.021* I like the design of the ghost there spooky and I love the design of the player it makes you feel like your in a horror movie 5 stars and it is one of the games that actually tell the truth ### 5/5 — AMAZINGG *2026-03-07, version 1.50.021* I've loved this game ever since 2020 when it was called Silent Castle!
