### 3/5 — 商売が下手

*2026-06-19*

他の人も書いているように広告の嵐です
1,500円払うと全ての広告がなくなるので、そこがスタートラインです

ゲームの面白さがわかるより前に広告の多さでダメになる人が多いのが低評価の原因でしょう
心を掴むまでは広告を少なめにすれば良いのに

戦闘ユニットは全て女の子ですが、進めるために必須であるサポートユニットは全て男です
可愛くない
本当に可愛くない

ユニットの性別が選択できればいいと思います

### 2/5 — Divertido, porém…

*2026-06-05*

O jogo é legalzinho , possui algumas mecanicas e certa dificuldade, MAS infelizmente O JOGO É PAY TO WIN DEMAIS a ponto de não dar para avançar uma fase sem pagar ou ver algum anuncio. Devido a isso tenho meus pêsames de dizer que esse é um jogo ruim (2 estrelas)

### 3/5 — バランスが悪いゲーム。課金必須

*2026-05-18*

レベル6になってくるとレベルアップに大量のコインが必要となる。(3000〜)
ところが1500円の永久パスを購入しても手に入るのは1日2000コイン。
キャラ1人をレベルアップさせるのに２日かかる。その間ステージはクリアできない。甚だバランスが悪い。

ステージクリアで入手できるコインの量が雀の涙。ステージが進むほど貰えるコインの量が多くなるシステムにすべき。

ミニゲームの難易度が高い。難しすぎる。クリアに時間がかかるわりに手に入るコインの量が少なすぎる。(50コイン)
クリアしたらコイン300〜500、そこそこいけたら50〜100くらいにすべきだと思う。

Lv5まで合成したら新たなスキルが発動しないのも投げやりに感じる。
課金しないとほぼ遊べない作りなのだから、せむてもっと作り込むべきだ。

### 2/5 — Had potential

*2026-03-30, version 1.0.15*

The idea for the game is similar to the backpack games, but the execution is awful. When you get to stage 5 the road block is so hard that even watching every single ad you can doesn’t help. Spending money would do nothing for you and the boxes are useless.

### 2/5 — Overrated

*2026-03-29*

This game is OK, Stage 2-3 is fun, it’s cute when the girls jump wanting to be upgraded, but Stage 4 is annoying, non-stop ads, and I had 100 gems, I spend 50, and said I had 40 left, I feel like leveling them up in the menu barely does anything at all, I get having ads is normal in a free game, but having to watch ads over and over again makes it unplayable, if they slowed down on ads, don’t take more then you actually spend, and power ups to make it more useful, this game would do great.

### 4/5 — 課金（永久パス）必須

*2026-03-05*

広告を消す課金（永久パス）前提。
広告がなければ、それなりに楽しめる。（投稿時現在58ステージ）
が、広告を見せるために作られたアプリだと思われるため、初期の⭐︎1〜3キャラ以外に追加のキャラは無し。
ステージや敵キャラのバリエーションも追加要素はない為、単調。
突撃兵、散弾兵、医療兵、エンジニア、ドラム隊（余裕があれば）のレベルをしっかり上げておけば、あとは好きな⭐︎3を入れれば良い感じ。
個人的には、貫通と複数発射できるレーザーとノックバック持ちの地雷が好きかな。

### 3/5 — Good game

*2026-02-14, version 1.0.15*

Its a great game, but there is so many ads. Maybe tone the ads down a little?

### 4/5 — First time getting!

*2026-02-12, version 1.0.15*

I saw the ad and I rlly like anime so I think I will like this!

### 3/5 — たぶん元ネタのあるコピーゲームなんだろうけど

*2026-02-03*

結構楽しめた。

以下攻略法↓

散弾兵一人を最前列に。
次の列にエンジニアを置いて散弾兵の体力を補強。

最後列に医療兵を置く。
散弾兵がダメージを受けた際に即座に回復できるよう、最終的には医療兵は三人欲しい。

散弾兵は2番目に体力が多く、かつ比較的敵のヘイトを集めやすいので最前線に置き上記の組み合わせで囮に使う。

散弾兵に集まった敵の群れを迫撃砲兵で集中砲火する、こちらも最終的にはやはり三人ほしい、中間の列に置くのが望ましい。

あとは前列に余裕があれば突撃兵を２〜３人配置する、敵を後退（見た目には少し遅らせるだけ）させるスキルが出ていると尚良い。

後列に戦争顧問を置いて、戦闘終了後のクジを引く回数を増やす。

残りのマスで適宜キャラクターのレベルを上げていく…。

という戦術が今の所最適解かな。

⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎のキャラクターは迫撃砲兵以外は実用性がない。
レベル上げの為の🧩がほとんど出ない。
レーザー射手のレーザーは射線上の的を全て貫通するが与ダメージが低過ぎる。
地雷専門家、空爆指揮官は手前の敵を攻撃できない。
メイドは手前も攻撃してくれるが与ダメージが低過ぎる。

反して、迫撃砲兵は与ダメージが高く、手前も攻撃できる、体力もそこそこある。
そして敵のアーマーを無視してダメージを与えられるので、攻撃に関しては迫撃砲兵一択になる。

広告は確かに多過ぎるけど、ゲームバランスは悪くなかった。

音楽をもっといい物に変えて増やしてほしいのと、迫撃砲兵以外の⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎のキャラクターに実用性が出るよう、ちゃんと敵がいる位置に攻撃するように調整し直してほしいところ。
それと敵のパターンも増やしてほしいな。

### 4/5 — Good but less ads would be better

*2026-02-01*

This game is my current hyper fixation but the ads are unbearable it would be wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy better if there were less ads overall great game

### 2/5 — ちょっとやった感想

*2026-02-01*

まずこのゲームは最初言語が英語になっているので、1ステージクリアした後くらいに左上のエネルギーの下の所押したら言語設定できると思います。

で、このゲームに関してなんですけど、基本というか広告は見なければクリア無理だと思います。最初3×3のマスがありますが狭いのでマスを増やさなければなりません。普通に出たりもしますが確率は低い。広告見なければクリア出来ないと思います。
広告スキップも課金すればあるぽい？

一ステージに何回も広告を見ると思ってください。

最初ちょっと楽しいくらい。

エネルギーは結構早く貯まるから結構挑戦は出来ます。

### 2/5 — Pay to win to a certain point

*2026-01-27*

At some point you’ll reach levels where is impossible to keep going without watching lots of ads or paying. I understand the need for those but I dunno about basic features necessary for getting past the first level being behind an ad wall. The game is great but that makes it a bit boring after a while. Hope you guys find a way to obtain income while the game remains being enjoyable! The ads tickets for example are a really good, but temporary option (as they’re limited and you need to watch way more ads than 2).

### 1/5 — 広告見たのに無効になることがある

*2026-08-15*

無料で遊ぶには広告を見なければならない。ここまではイイ。無料で遊べるので感謝
ただタイトルのとおり広告を見たのに無効になり、再度広告を見なければならない時が頻度よくある。
また広告がどういうわけか止まりアプリを再起動する羽目になったことが1度だけある。せっかく数十分かけた戦闘が無駄になった。

広告を見ないとも広告があるから評価が低しているわけでもない。きちんとしてほしいだけ

### 1/5 — Absolute trash

*2026-04-20*

Saw the game in an ad playing another game.  On a whim played the demo, played through all 7 demo levels and it was fun.  Downloaded the game and wow, it’s bad.  The game starts out fun but quickly becomes tedious.  It would be bearable if you had more playtime but it’s about 60/40 play to watching ads and the kicker is there are multiple ads that after you watch them they just say “failed to load” and you don’t get the reward.  Imagine being so stupid and incompetent that you get the core component of your revenue stream wrong.  I made it to level 10 before it became impossible to move forward no matter how many ads I watched which was pretty disappointing. Last but not least, I have the language set to English but one of the modes is in Chinese.  I don’t see this being around in 6 months and it lasted less than 24 hrs on my phone…0/10, find some competent developers.

### 1/5 — WHY

*2026-03-23, version 1.0.15*

Survival shelter can you fix ur game bc it won't let me play the game when I downloaded it but I get to play it on ads tho

### 1/5 — Печаль

*2026-03-18*

Играю, вроде как то проходится, выхожу из игры, позже возвращаюсь… снова туториал и заново играть от начала

### 1/5 — Forced adds

*2026-03-12, version 1.0.15*

I like games that allow you to watch ads to improve your game play. I hate games that force you to watch ads to play the game at the most basic level.

### 1/5 — Advert city

*2026-03-09*

Could be fun but you need to watch 4-10 adds per game to be able to clear it. Waste of time sadly

### 1/5 — Potential

*2026-03-01, version 1.0.15*

Super cute characters and fun in theory but you need to watch 10,000 ads to win. Js to try it I literally watched every ad possible (like 50 total, 80 seconds each) for a round and still lost. They want it to be so hard you need to watch endless ads

### 1/5 — Pure disappointment

*2026-02-17*

This is an ad farming game. You can’t even enjoy playing because you constantly need to refresh to get a better soldier only to get the same tier soldiers over and over and over and over again. I shouldn’t have to watch an ad to progress through the game. I watched one ad and it was 160 seconds long. I don’t know bout you, but I’m assuming most people would delete the game after having to wait 3 minutes for an ad for a tier 2 soldier. I’ve downloaded this game before expecting a decent update when I got back only to find that the game got worse. These are the kinda games that are poor nourished and should be fixed or taken down completely.

### 1/5 — Too hard, watch ads to win

*2026-02-07, version 1.0.15*

The game is way too difficult and literally impossible like they didn’t even bother to test it, lazy making, probably got AI to make it.

Even after watching 20 ads in one round I still lose and have to do it all over again, not enjoyable at all, pathetically difficult and poorly made game.

### 1/5 — Fix gold

*2026-02-01, version 1.0.15*

When I watch gold video in the shop, you REMOVE 200 gold not add. Thanks a lot for letting me know you DONT want me to play and watch your ads

### 5/5 — Love the game! Don't love the ads :(

*2026-04-03*

I've been playing this game for about a week and I'm loving it so far!!! I absolutely love the gameplay and to top that, the art style is adorable! Even the zombies look somewhat cute to me!! I also love how every card has a different ability so none of them are the same and all of them are unique in both abilities and character design. The one drawback is the ads. There are many ads throughout the game hut that aside, it is a wonderful game! I do recommend you play this game as long as you don't mind having ads here and there! 

Happy playing guyz! <3

### 5/5 — Really good but the ADS

*2026-04-01*

It’s a really good game but there are a lot of ads if it didn’t have that much ads this would be a really good game and better than it already is because it is a really fun and addicting game lol but the  ads really hold back on this game’s potential but really good game tho!

### 5/5 — Просто супер

*2026-03-22, version 1.0.15*

Очень Крутая игра! Дизайн персонаже безумно крутой! И управление очень удобное! Всем советую)))

### 5/5 — 虚無ゲー

*2026-03-22*

¥1500円払えば、良い暇つぶしとして楽しめます。ゲームバランスがいいので、ギリギリ勝ったり、パズルのように組み合わせる楽しさがあります。ラウンドごとに獲得している技が選択できるのですが、運良くレーザーが3つになるやつが出れば、レーザー強いです。現在102。50くらいからは敵が強くなるだけで変わりません。

### 5/5 — Ads help you win, paid upgrades worth it

*2026-03-21, version 1.0.15*

this game is fun and challenging strategically, even losing earns rewards. playing with different hero’s in your line up makes a great game

### 5/5 — THE BEST!!!

*2026-03-14, version 1.0.15*

OMG I LOVE THIS GAME IT IS THE BEST!!! I’m so obsessed with it and there’s not that many ads I’m only on level like 3, 4 or 5 but it is SO AMAZING!! 🤩 
So yeah, amazing game I would definitely recommend 😘

### 5/5 — Please read before playing

*2026-03-08*

This game is actually so amazing and cute!! I love how it forces you to watch ads before the rounds start or you lose instantly. I also love how at Stage 7, it’s impossible to win unless you spend money! The same is said for all the other game modes in this game. They’re all impossible (: I’ve been stuck on level 7 for 4 days and each time I try, I watch more than 7-10 minutes of ads and still lose. Enjoy it if you wish, but it’s basically only 6 possible levels.

### 5/5 — SO satisfying

*2026-02-20*

This game is SO much fun. It hooked me right from an ad of it, then the game had the exact same payoff. I saw some reviews commenting on the difficulty, which I will say definitely hits a bit at Level 5. However, if you just snag the free items available and do a bit of grinding, I was able to beat it in a day or two and it honestly felt so rewarding once I did. Some runs have an RNG curse and don’t pan out (ie 3 snipers isn’t gonna work lol) but when things click they do in such a satisfying way. I play the ads now and then, especially for the extra two rows, but they don’t feel exhausting or invasive. Seriously really fun addictive game that feels rewarding to progress through.

### 5/5 — watch-to-win/pay-to-win

*2026-01-27, version 1.0.15*

(giving this 5 stars so my review is seen‼️) the concept of this game is good and so is the art, but you literally cannot get past the second level without having to watch a bunch of ads just to get a good team (i’m pretty sure to encourage people to buy something). the energy system in this game is also terrible and it takes forever just to level up one character. not worth it.

### 5/5 — More level to hero be great thing to add almost max out in game but generally love it

*2026-01-15, version 1.0.15*

Easy 10 out of 10 my favorite game by far
