### 3/5 — 3 stars because it’s a blatant ripoff

*2023-03-17*

A super obvious age of war ripoff with a couple unique turrets really boring honestly animations are gross

### 3/5 — To much adds

*2020-11-28*

To much adds

### 4/5 — Bom jogo

*2020-02-17*

Acho que os personagens poderiam ter um design melhor, porém o jogo é muito bom. Parabéns

### 1/5 — Ads

*2018-08-02, version 3.0.3*

Great before they added ads in the middle of the game. Screw this

### 1/5 — Paid for it. Still Has ads

*2018-03-16, version 3.0.3*

If I pay to get rid of the ads, there shouldn’t be ads.

### 5/5 — Great simple game. Love it

*2018-01-14, version 3.0.3*

A👍👍👍👍👍

### 2/5 — iPhone X version doesn’t save game

*2017-12-26*

The game does not save on iPhone x

### 5/5 — Overall great game

*2017-12-22*

It’s kinda funny really, I am now twelve with my own phone, and I still have this game. When I was about 6 or 7, I would ask my dad to play on his iPhone 3, I would instantly go to this game and play for a long time. I love this game and for those who haven’t played it, I highly suggest you get it.

### 2/5 — No gameplay instructions

*2017-09-21*

"How to play" doesn't tell you HOW to play, it's a brief summary of the game. Gameplay is not completely intuitive. Seems like it could be a fun game if I understood how the controls worked

### 5/5 — B E A U T I F U L

*2017-09-16, version 3.0.3*

This game makes me very satisfied with human accomplishments.

### 1/5 — Сброс игры

*2022-12-23*

При выходе рекламы, сбрасывается игра!!

### 1/5 — Ruined

*2022-10-11*

Used to love the game but too much ad and no more in game music

### 1/5 — 망겜

*2022-02-01*

광고 ㅈㄴ 나옴 지우셈 ㅅㄱ 냥코하러감

### 1/5 — 0 Stars if I could

*2021-12-20*

Game is stupid. Plays ads every two minutes during the game. Makes it pretty much impossible to play. If you leave the app for 2 seconds you lose all your progress, so if you accidentally click on an ad and it takes you away from the app, you lose your progress. Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — 결제 해도 게임 저장 안된다.

*2021-06-27*

참고하세요. OS 호환 문제인듯 
바로 환불하러 갑니다

### 1/5 — 와;;; 광고 장난아니네;;;

*2020-06-26*

ㄹㅇ 한판하는데 15초 광고 8번 봐야됨;;;
한번은 광고 잘못 눌렀다가 게임 처음부터 실행되고;;;
게임을 하라는건지 광고를 보다가 틈틈이 게임을 하라는건지;;; 별 하나도 아까움 ㄹㅇ

### 1/5 — 프리미엄 쳐 만들어서 광고없애고 결제하게해라

*2020-05-11*

짜증나게만드네

### 1/5 — ㅅㅂ

*2018-09-17*

광고 적당히보고 광고한번 눌럿다고 다시 들어가니까 초기화냐 게임은 재밋어도 서비스가 엉망인데 광고좀 적당히 처봐 한판에 10개는 보는거같다 ㅅㅂ

### 1/5 — 광고좀적당히쳐넣으세요ㅋㅋ아니무슨한판에5번이상광고를때려넣어 겜하라는건디말란건지 이러니망하지ㅋㅋ

*2018-09-06*

ㅋ

### 1/5 — 게임이 아닌 광고 앱

*2018-09-04*

난이도 0이나 1일 때는 괜찮았는데,
어느 기점부터 1,2분에 광고 하나씩 계속 나옴.

무료고 광고로 돈 버는 건 알겠는데 게임 시간이랑 광고 보는 시간이랑 비슷하면 게임을 하겠습니까???

게임은 잘 만들었지만 기본적으로 게임 앱이 아닌 광고 앱!

### 5/5 — Great game! Very nostalgic!

*2026-02-01*

This game is over all quite nice. It is simple and fun enough for you to want to play again and again. The difficulties is a nice touch to make the game harder for a higher challenge. I used to play this on my mom’s phone when I was little. Really brings me back. Well made game, great replayable, and I never get adds. 6 stars of if could! :)

### 5/5 — 🤑🤑

*2024-04-17*

Nice game

### 5/5 — Fun and easy

*2023-11-16*

Despite how easy to navigate thru it. It can be played on easy or really challenging! Love this game!

### 5/5 — Wow great game!

*2023-03-13*

I know this game has been a game for some time now and if the developers somehow see my review I love this game, it’s like age of war but like pixel and a little different. These developers did really good making this game.

### 5/5 — Best game

*2022-05-24*

This was one of the best games. First time I got it was when I had the iPod touch 2. Wish they could update this

### 5/5 — Good game

*2021-07-01*

I can’t believe this game is still on the App Store. It was one of the first apps I ever downloaded over a decade again. Huge nostalgia factor.

### 5/5 — Music?

*2020-09-14*

It’s a great game! As most I played when I was small but where did the music go ? It was a lot better with the theme playing during battle, bring it back please ?

### 5/5 — 광고 제외 맘에 듬

*2020-08-10*

광고 말고는 정말 재밌게 할 수 있는 게임 입니다 ~ 성장하려면 어쩔수 없는 시스템이라고 생각합니다 !

### 5/5 — 광고 지움 결제 실수로 했네요.

*2019-01-07*

결제 취소 해주세요.ㅠㅠ
