### 1/5 — Waste of time ….

*2021-07-11*

Don’t download ….. slow , boring , too sensitive , repetitive , not engaging at al …..

### 1/5 — Not how you think!

*2021-05-14*

Terrible game overall in my opinion the sensitivity for shooting is just ridiculous and it does not feel satisfying at all and as bad as the game is when you miss the avatar disses you🤣

### 1/5 — Not good

*2021-05-12, version 1.2.1*

The physics are terrible. Also, what's the point in having augmented reality in this game? It just makes everything more distracting and difficult than it already is.

### 5/5 — Amazing.

*2020-09-17, version 1.2*

Incredible. I love your game so much. The graphic designs amaze me. I will spread this game around if you would give me a sponsor!- from David Dobrick.
