*2026-05-19, version 1.7.7*

Used to play this game when I was a kid on my iPod and iPad. Now that I’m an adult I can buy gems lol

### 5/5 — STILL LIKE 2014!!!

### 5/5 — love it

*2025-11-09, version 1.7.7*

super fun and always play
good game for a long car ride

### 4/5 — More weapons

*2025-11-09, version 1.7.7*

As much as I love the game I miss when I played on my first iPad back in 2014 and each character had a few different guns like mason having more than just the shotgun and minigun. He also had the heat ray, sticky bomb launcher, and the melee suit.
I want the characters to have more weapons again cause just 2 weapons per character just doesn’t feel as fun and I want it to be how it was back in 2014.
Aka I want more weapons for each character cause for example Wei is the only one with the lightning gun and I love that weapon. but if I use Wei then I do get the lightning gun and the 3 mechs but I greatly reduce how much the mayhem fills meaning I don’t get to use the drones and mechs nearly as much as I want. Plz change the weapons system back to how it was in 2014.

### 5/5 — Pls optimize its too old

*2025-10-16, version 1.7.7*

Optimize the game for new iphones so that we can enjoy it It's a great game and I would love to see it develop even more
