Don’t bother

You will have to pay $7 to not have to watch 30 ADS after each boss

Absolutely worth it!!

I was hesitant about the $7 ad paywall at first, but I’m really glad spent the money. This a great game that feels like it was made with love. It’s the best phone game I’ve played in a while and I’ve already sunk multiple hours into it.

Fun roguelike

Cute and fun game play

Really good

Great Rogue like shooter; you can play for free but it takes a bunch of ads I think it’s worth 7 bucks also you can play it offline. So my International trip with a 2 year old was bearable as I can pause it and keep going when time.

Also the party Mode is fantastic; basically the after the game.

Basically it’s similar progression to a steam world dog but a top down shooter.

Very good game!

Screw you / for the ads but other then that games pretty fun

I hate having to watch ads to make progress and I’m not giving you 7 dollars that I don’t have so I like the game and because of the ads you get 4 stars not 5 stars
