### 2/5 — Fun

*2026-08-31, version 1.16.2*

The game breaks at level 5

### 3/5 — Wasted potential

*2026-08-31, version 1.16.2*

This game could have been epic but instead i am wasting most of my time watching ads to get more money.. just to loose it all at the end of a boss fight. I cant go back and play previous levels, and the back pack can only hold like 250 dollars when i move on to the next level. It is Very monotonous to gain something and lose it also

### 3/5 — To many ads.

*2026-08-30, version 1.16.2*

The game is fun but the amount of ads they push out is INSANE. They already have an on screen ad while playing the game at the bottom. I get watching an ad for 2x money or energy but forcing me to watch an ad I have to click 2 to 4 buttons to even skip is insane. If they don’t fix it I will quit playing as it’s beginning to be too much. Forcing ads in us consumers after almost every 1 minutes is excessive and exhausting. I will not buy your no ads thing I will just delete the game.

### 2/5 — Fun bug causes phone lagging

*2026-08-29, version 1.16.2*

It’s a fun little game but omg does it start to cause my whole phone to lag if I play it for more than 15 minutes . Also adds show up even when I choose to not do the add.   Gets a bit repetitive. Not worth my phone lagging

### 2/5 — Slow progress, too many ads

*2026-08-29, version 1.16.2*

The game is okay, but it takes way too long to make progress, even with bonuses from watching ads. I watched SO. MANY. ADS!! just to get through a level - I spent more time watching ads for other games than playing this one. After doing several levels I’ve deleted the game, not worth the time.

### 2/5 — Good concept, mediocre execution

*2026-08-28, version 1.16.2*

After each death, expect an ad. Normally I’d say that’s normal for a free game, but levels are so short, you trade a minute gameplay for 15 seconds in ad. Fighting through that, energy takes 30 minutes to refill by 1. So in actuality, you’re waiting 30 minutes per level with gameplay of a minute. I downloaded for a day, went through 3 levels and deleted.

### 2/5 — Fixing required

*2026-08-27, version 1.16.2*

Backpack function, is either glitched or scripted error. Invested enough gems to get the extra 425 expansion for gold carry over to next stage which would be 925 gold to start over. It just starts next map on original default settings of 500. Been like this since start of game. Fix as intended

### 3/5 — Bad update

*2026-08-27, version 1.16.2*

So now you can wear any outfit and it doesn’t effect the damage percentage? So a helmet designed for sniper rifle doesn’t have any impact on any weapon you’re currently using? So pointless having different outfits now. You can miss match everything and the weapon is still producing the same damage!! Only changes if the colour levels are different

### 3/5 — New update?

*2026-08-27, version 1.16.2*

Been playing for a month or so and i love the concept but just recently noticed the coin changes.  It feels a lot worse.  Also on a few levels, the end gold doesn’t transfer to the new level.  

Hopefully its just buggy, but if this is the new update, i think ill delete.

### 3/5 — Fun game BUT

*2026-08-26, version 1.16.2*

This is a fun game no doubt but the need to watch ads in order to make real progess is just nuts. The game is designed to make extremely slow progress and gives you no choice but to watch ads to make real progress.

Update: latest update is broken. The armor and helmet bonus do not apply to other weapons. Somehow the sniper rifle get the 20% bonus atk without the proper equipped gears.

### 3/5 — It’s ok but can’t do more than 3 stars.

*2026-08-24, version 1.15.0*

Not a big fan of the end of a level where you get to the next one then you get 18,000 coins from defeating the boss but then you can only take in 50 to the next cause that’s all you can take along with you, like ok why even have it that high of a reward on the first boss if you’re not gonna be even close to that amount to take with you and they didn’t tell you you before you went onto the next level, plus having an energy system so you can only go 10 times until you can get some back is a real put off for a lot of games.

### 3/5 — SO FUN

*2026-08-21, version 1.15.0*

I installed on my Samsung phone already so that should tell you something

### 1/5 — Too many pop-ups and ads

*2026-08-17, version 1.15.0*

If you want to spend a lot of money to get ad skips, that might help you enjoy this game, but you'd still be bombarded with pop-up offers all the time. I'm deleting even though I enjoyed the gameplay because I'm trying to respect my time, even if the developers won't.

### 1/5 — Ad

*2026-08-30, version 1.16.2*

So you’re able to pay $5 to remove ads and in the next 30-60 min of playing the game the ads come back. So inconvenient.

### 1/5 — Incessant forced ads

*2026-08-29, version 1.16.2*

The amount of forced ads is absolutely insane. Uninstalled. Fun game, but greed has absolutely ruined it immediately.

### 1/5 — Update nerfed me

*2026-08-28, version 1.16.2*

I lost 50 million damage on my assault rifle with this newest update. WTH?

### 1/5 — I’d give zero stars if I could

*2026-08-26, version 1.16.2*

Extremely predatory way too many ads the game would be fun, but the ads are ridiculous. You hit a closed tab and it reopens twice. That’s honestly ridiculous on top of the ads on top of ads guys get it together.😂😂😂 this game is terrible

### 1/5 — Destroyed by ads

*2026-08-26, version 1.16.2*

Ads destroy the game. The ads constantly freezes or glitches stoping the game and most time losing progress for the round.

### 1/5 — This update is trash.

*2026-08-25, version 1.16.2*

Why did you change the entire game? The diamonds mean nothing now with this unupdatable backpack. Used to make hundreds of thousands in coins per round and you destroy that entire system. You messed your game up for what? I was genuinely having fun until this.

### 1/5 — Don’t bother wasting your time!

*2026-08-24, version 1.15.0*

Waste of time! This game was maid for you to pay money & watch apps. When you kill the boss you receive about 300/30k coins which is needed to upgrade you weapons ( also any coins you save from your previous battle will also disappear )the ruby’s you get will upgrade your backpack to about an additional 50+ coins with takes about 1-2 to gain for an upgrade

### 1/5 — Сплошная реклама

*2026-08-22*

В этой игре буквально все сделано для того чтобы ты смотрел рекламу, хочешь дополнительных монет которых всегда не хватает? - смотри рекламу! Не хочешь ждать уровень несколько минут? - смотри рекламу! Но кроме того, ВНИМАНИЕ, реклама помимо всего прочего включается и сама через раз, да и самая длинная, долго выключать. 
Сам сюжет максимально примитивный, вернее его нет, с каждым уровнем меняется только картинка, смысл тот же что и в прошлом, ничем не отличается, одно и то же и так до бесконечности. Ну и плюс ко всему каждый уровень начинается со 150 монет, что не имеет значения как вы старались в прошлом.
Ну а за такое количество рекламы которая даже во время игры внизу заставляет игру глючить ставлю одну звезду

**Developer response:** Привет, Пупа among! Мы ценим ваш отзыв и понимаем, что количество рекламы может негативно влиять на ваш игровой опыт. Реклама действительно помогает нам продолжать развивать игру, но мы рассмотрим возможность уменьшения её количества. Также, нам жаль слышать, что сюжет и механика уровней не соответствуют вашим ожиданиям. Ваши впечатления очень важны для нас, и мы надеемся, что вы найдете в игре моменты, которые вам понравятся. Спасибо, что поделились своим мнением!

### 1/5 — Greedy with ads

*2026-08-22, version 1.15.0*

Too many ads, its unbearable and greedy

### 1/5 — Repetitive and set

*2026-08-20, version 1.15.0*

Absolute garbage. Keep playing predetermined levels over and over and over again just to get one upgrade per try. So boring.
