User reviews

A hidden gem of the app store.

Higly recommented, eassely one of best mobile game out there.

Game was good for a long time but now I’d say the devs made it impossible to get new units

You have to fight the weapon platforms every single time you go there that’s absurd no units in game except weapon platforms can beat them every single time and you can’t respawn weapon platforms and they’re needed for late game missions so it’s nearly impossible to beat game without these key units why have to fight them every time you go there after beating the mission already that’s stupid concept
