### 3/5 — -_-

*2024-01-25*

Зашел посмотреть рекламу,а тут игра какая-то

### 4/5 — Oyun çok güzel ama

*2023-08-19, version 1.3.8*

Oyunu en son çok uzun zaman önce oynamıştım hiç Güncelleme gelmiyor ve grafikler diğer oyunlara göre  düşük bence bir el atılması şart

### 4/5 — Pls update game

*2023-06-22, version 1.3.8*

Good

### 4/5 — Вау

*2023-02-26*

Крутая игра особенно Скины которые можно брать За деньги

### 4/5 — Great

*2023-02-06, version 1.3.8*

It’s a fun arrow game I think it’s for 5 and up

### 3/5 — Could use some work

*2022-12-02, version 1.0.9*

Between the terrible aiming and throwing control and the fact that I keep getting 2 shotted while given no chance at actual accuracy, I stopped enjoying it 5 minutes in. Expected something like bowman and got the knock off money maker Ponzi scheme version. Bowman’s a fairly simple game straightforward so to copy it and produce this particular article is almost laughable.

### 5/5 — Оттт ютубера как с лучниками

*2022-10-19*

👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌 просто норм

### 4/5 — Süper

*2022-07-13, version 1.0.9*

Oyuna getirilmesi gereken şeyler : 1- oyuna ok getirin 2- bütün kaskların Scott değil oyunda para biriktirip almalıyız bence 🗣 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

### 5/5 — Ótimo jogo

*2022-03-04*

Jogo muito bom! Melhor offline que tem, fácil e divertido!!!

Ponto a melhorar: botão do escudo fica muito no canto da tela e distante do dedo

### 3/5 — Good game

*2021-11-13, version 1.0.9*

I like the game but it takes a while to get overpowered a little too long

### 3/5 — Meh

*2021-09-18, version 1.0.9*

It is a great game, but the AI’s are extremely to accurate. Please make them not as accurate, as it is super hard to play.

### 1/5 — Too many add

*2026-03-06*

Every time you play 2-3 level another app is running your screen it’s totally diverting to another game.

### 1/5 — Very BAD

*2025-11-04, version 1.4.8*

Very bad coding! Don’t aim well and destroy your nerves to fix bad aiming! Not worth of your time!

### 1/5 — I’d Suggest Another Game

*2025-07-17, version 1.4.2*

You’ll run out of things to do quickly in this game as there aren’t too much weapons or gameplay buildout included. 

Most notably I’ve experienced my time in the game to be about 20% gameplay and 80% ads popping up. By this logic the maximum rating I could give is 20% or equivalent to 1 star however due to lack of gameplay buildout, a .5 star may be more suitable.

### 1/5 — Stupid game

*2025-01-18, version 1.4.2*

It’s not fair I can’t even throw my first spear before the first enemy shoots one arrow and kills me this game is so stupid

### 1/5 — Worst game ever

*2024-08-21, version 1.4.2*

Nah I’m just mad coz I’m salty

### 1/5 — Ads

*2024-05-20, version 1.4.2*

Forcing an ad when I decline an ad is so disrespectful. Fun game though.

### 1/5 — Why are the controls so fricking laggy

*2024-05-02, version 1.4.2*

I don’t understand why is the controls so laggy like when i move down i go up all the time and the helments don’t help because if you get shot on the face you die and almost all the time its the face

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2023-06-09*

This game frustrates you

### 1/5 — Last update ruined the game

*2022-12-24, version 1.3.8*

I loved this mindless game and played it all the time.  It used to be so streamlined and easy to get right into.  Now they’ve added all this extra crap that isn’t necessary.  What a shame so much fun is gone.  I guess all good things come to an end.  Deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Kötü grafik
