### 2/5 — Turn undead monster hunter

*2025-02-11, version 1.3*

Controls very fiddly 👎

### 3/5 — Great concept, plagued with ads

*2025-02-10, version 1.3*

I wanted to like this, the simple puzzle mechanics are great. Way too many ad interruptions in the free version

### 2/5 — Very fun but...

*2022-11-04, version 1.2*

I think this is a very fun game, i used to play it on the browser so it was very important to me to be able to keep playing it. when i saw it had ads to turn back time after death? i payed to remove ads. it still asks for ads on death. IF YOU PAY FOR ADS YOU STILL GET ADS
this needs to be stated at the start or before you pay. a 4$ premium for no benefit is not a benefit to me.

### 3/5 — Hard

*2020-01-24, version 1.2*

Level 8 on the last section where you have to use the monsters as platforms I cannot beat it can you replace the door with a block

### 3/5 — Controls

*2019-12-17*

Game is awesome, but controls make it almost unplayable. Supposed to swipe to move, but more often than not it continues moving more than once which in a turn based arcade game just means I die all the time when I only meant to move one space. 

TLDR: fix controls pleeeeeeease! 🤷‍♀️

### 2/5 — Touch/Swipe game control is horrible

*2019-09-05*

This is a fun, challenging game, but the game control is horrible. You have to swip life/right/up to move and touch screen to shoot, but too often you swipe and instead of moving the character it shoots the gun instead. Would like it better if there was more established areas for movement vs. shooting.

### 4/5 — Suggestion to Nitrome

*2018-11-20*

I’ve been a Nitrome fan ever since I was eleven. Nitrome was one of my favorite online game website and still is. I’ve loved seeing some of my favorite games like Ice Breaker, Magic Touch and Turn Undead come to mobile if I had to recommend a three games I’d love to have remade for mobile they would be Mutiny, Double Edged or Skywire. But I’m sure whatever you’re next mobile game is I will enjoy it too.

### 5/5 — Es un gran juego

*2018-11-03*

Muy buen juego, como todos los que hace Nitrome, son los Nintendo de los móviles.  Súper recomendable, darle un tiento tb. A la segunda parte.

### 5/5 — Годно

*2018-09-18*

Не один раз эта игра подрывала
 мне пукан , в каких то моментах своей сложностью , а где то своими багами но дойдя до конца игры я ещё некогда не чувствовал такой восторг .

### 3/5 — Premium Slayin’ isn’t worth payin’

*2018-09-10*

This game is great, but don’t waste your money on the in-app purchase. If you want to continue after you die, you still have to watch an ad to continue the level without restarting. If I had know that, I wouldn’t have purchased at all. Very disappointed in the purchase. Still a big fan of Nitrome though.

### 5/5 — あのねぇー

*2018-07-08*

俺頭悪すぎて全クリ半年かかったからね

### 1/5 — Don’t pay - it’s a Scam!

*2026-03-06, version 1.3*

Paying to turn ads off doesn’t them off! A total rip-off!!!

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-03-15, version 1.3*

Gameplay seems meh, but can’t get into it because even after paying, I still get extremely long ads every time I die. Don’t waste time or money on that kind of stuff.

### 1/5 — Need help on a level but there are no level markers

*2025-02-18, version 1.3*

Can’t seem to jump twice or stay on top of a zombie to get up to the next level. (Gltching)

No help online so I gave you one star, you’re already making new games and this one still needs improvement. 

Change my mind I’ll change the review

### 1/5 — Still have ads

*2025-02-15, version 1.3*

Fun little game…too many ads on free to play version so I payed the $3.99 to remove ads. Still have ads. No cool.

### 1/5 — Não é possível desligar o som

*2025-02-13*

No menu você consegue desligar o som, porem quando começa o jogo o som volta. Corrijam isso e darei nota 5, pois o jogo é bem legal.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-02-08, version 1.3*

I was enjoying the game until I get an ad pop up after the last level. Then I get an ad after I die, way too many ads for me to enjoy the game!

### 1/5 — IF YOU PAY YOU STILL GET ADS!!!

*2024-07-24*

I think this is a very fun game, i used to play it on the browser so it was very important to me to be able to keep playing it. when i saw it had ads to turn back time after death? i payed to remove ads. it still asks for ads on death. IF YOU PAY FOR ADS YOU STILL GET ADS this needs to be stated at the start or before you pay. a 4$ premium for no benefit is not a benefit to me.

### 1/5 — still ads…

*2023-09-09, version 1.2*

I bought this premium upgrade but still get ads…

### 1/5 — No funciona

*2023-01-23*

Tengo un iPhone 4s con iOS 9 y según los requisitos requiere iOS 7 pero cuando lo abro solo aparece un ataúd y se cierra

### 1/5 — Mute doesn't work

*2018-04-19, version 1.2*

Which makes this game virtually unplayable.

### 5/5 — Best developers

*2026-01-29*

I’m playing this game now in 2026, and it brings back so many memories of 2017. But I think nitrome should make more games, because they only have a few titles. But I think you should keep updating and making more games.

### 5/5 — How could you not want this?

*2025-04-24*

You got this little guy in purple ( not prince ) with his hat and red eyes holding two log firing pew pews. Sort of like a purple Undertaker and that is cool. You have to get used to the turn based style. But once you get it clicks. Sort of like playing guitar hero one day your hands just get it. No spoilers. Trust me will get sequel eventually. Going to check if you have anything similar. Very cool though.

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2024-10-15, version 1.2*

Loved both the games, music, layout, concept, all of it. Great games, make more please!

### 5/5 — Super jeux

*2024-01-04*

Il manque juste le français

### 5/5 — I luv this game!!!!

*2020-05-17, version 1.2*

Simple mechanics but increasing difficulty makes u think and replay constantly until u master it!!! Enjoy!!! Great work!!!

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2020-03-06, version 1.2*

For all the people that say the game kicks you out then it is your problem with your own device. But I personally believe this is a great game graphics, design and the concept is great!

### 5/5 — So.Much.Fun.

*2019-05-23, version 1.2*

I love this game!!!!! Please create a third!!!

### 5/5 — Genial

*2019-04-29*

Me encantan los nitrome. En mi opinión la dificultad es perfecta, siendo un reto cada uno de los niveles. El diseño retro, agradable, ambientado.

### 5/5 — J’adore nitrome Génial continuez Nitrome !

*2019-02-16*

Jeu original , vraiment bien, mais 2 petits soucis rattrapables .
Tactile répond pas super bien, on tire des fois alors que on veut se déplacer .
Et lorsque on coupe le son et la musique dans les paramètres et bien elle revient dans le jeu.
Sinon bon jeu, bonne difficulté , on accepte les pubs , normal pour jeu gratuit.
Continuee

### 5/5 — Awesome side-scrolling, turn-based puzzler!!!

*2018-12-22, version 1.2*

Download this one. Super fun & appropriately difficult. Awesome game! Downlod Part II also. Continue the adventure!

It reminded me of The Lost Vikings (one of my all time favorites!
