### 4/5 — So far so good.

*2022-04-04, version 1.2.75*

So far so good.

### 3/5 — It’s OK

*2021-02-04, version 1.2.75*

It’s ok, not the best

### 4/5 — Good

*2019-09-23, version 1.2.75*

Nice game

### 2/5 — Easy? A bit pointless

*2019-09-10*

Maybe I’m just late to the party, but the game was easily completed in a day of playing and I didn’t really have to do... well anything.

There’s a whole mechanism of collecting cards, then combining them to update your towers and equipment... but it seemed fairly pointless, and didn’t seem to have much effect.

You can buy pro to get more slots (room to take heroes or towers into a level) but I just used the same three towers in the three free slots and won every single level.  

So I guess I’m saying it was fun, but the progression system didn’t ever feel like it paid off.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2019-08-10, version 1.2.75*

Lots of ads... Just too much emphasis on micropayments to do just about everything. Gameplay is too simple with no real depth.

### 3/5 — .

*2019-08-04, version 1.2.75*

Its ok

### 3/5 — Ok

*2019-02-14*

Little hard to get started otherwise good so far

### 4/5 — Way too many adds

*2018-12-10, version 1.2.75*

Way too many adds other wise it'd be awesome.

### 2/5 — 2 lvs in, they want review

*2018-10-29, version 1.2.75*

Tons of ads.

### 3/5 — Ok so far

*2018-08-17, version 1.2.75*

Well play in game for a whole 2 min and they want a review......don't know yet.

### 4/5 — Average

*2018-08-16, version 1.2.75*

Needs 2 player

### 4/5 — Pretty good

*2018-07-26, version 1.2.75*

Seems like a pretty good TD game, haven’t seen one like it yet so it’s not just a copy like most others. Lots of ads though.

### 2/5 — Ehhh I can go without it

*2018-07-07*

So many ads, nothing about it has made me want to buy the “pro” version.

### 3/5 — Needs money to enjoy it

*2018-06-29, version 1.2.75*

No heroes compared to the first game. Shame.

### 2/5 — Pay to win

*2018-06-21*

Halfway through the game. Starting to wonder if winning is possible without paying to get the Pro version. This is a paid review.

### 4/5 — Good game, very like first one

*2018-06-16, version 1.2.75*

This is an engaging game, very like the first Steampunk game, but the heroes are reserved for the paid version. Opponents are fun but you run out of new types fairly soon and the game is a bit formulaic. I'm still playing it though...

### 2/5 — Okish

*2018-05-12, version 1.2.75*

The game is fun and a cool art style. Its crashes a lot and there are far too many adds

### 4/5 — Fun game

*2018-04-30, version 1.2.75*

Easy to use and nice TD fun.

### 3/5 — Not again

*2018-04-12, version 1.2.75*

Another game with real potential but ruined by the greed of money. To advance through the game you can play small sections a time or pay the inevitable $ to play a few minutes longer.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Sometime if the earth stop sometime the ads stop

*2022-04-09, version 1.2.75*

Yep

### 1/5 — Crashes on the upgrades screen

*2018-03-08*

After paying for the full version and losing all my progress from the free version, now it’s at a point where the upgrades screen crashes and exits the game every time.  It’s permanently broken.  Buggy and disappointing.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2018-01-26, version 1.2.75*

Too many ads

### 1/5 — Card Upgrade Errors

*2017-11-13*

I lose my card upgrades and can't correct the issue. I keep getting kicked out of the game and can no longer upgrade any cards. 

Don't download unless this error gets fixed.

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2017-10-24*

When I combine cards to make upgrades, sometimes the upgraded card disappears before it's time to collect it and I have to start over. The game is stuck on level 25 because on this level I somehow lose lives when I kill the giant spiders. I didn't have these issues with the first steampunk game. I hope they can fix this one. Eh, I decided not to wait. Deleted this game.

### 1/5 — FAIL! Broken game

*2017-10-18*

Too many Ads, but I ignored it. Errors I cannot.
Buggy broken game. Level 25, I loose 3 health automatically when I kill giant spider. Instead of creating 3 tiny spiders I loose 3 health.
You have option to see an Ad instead of waiting 5 mins for an upgrade. After I see 4 ads and reduce time by 20 mins the game crashes and game resets and it's back to 20 mins.

Annoying broken game.. Deleting.

### 1/5 — Add to the game. Don't take away from it.

*2017-10-02*

So with the recent update, they added a pro version which you have to buy. This eliminates ads and gives you the set of heroes you already had. In addition, now you only have 3 slots available and 1 video slot.  The rest are in the pro version. 

Clear attempt to make more revenue from the game.  Delete.

### 1/5 — Cause I have to rate to get currency

*2017-08-23, version 1.1*

Need free currency

### 1/5 — Same old same old

*2017-08-20*

Same linear limited game play as the first.  Very limited number of 'cards' of which only 1 of each mech item is useful and you won't even touch most of the non-tower ones.

### 1/5 — Nice idea poor execution

*2017-07-19, version 1.0*

No end game.
Poor translations/spelling.
Frustrating when you place your turrets at the top of the map and can't upgrade them.

Disappointed to have sunk so much time into this for it to not even have a conclusion.
