This is the reason, I still play mobile games. However to improve you could add a visual point where the swat people would move to when entering a room. ### 4/5 — Recenzia *2026-04-26, version 1.260420.1* Je to super hra ktorá zabije čas, veľké plus že je to po slovenský, nemám čo vytknúť 👍🏻🫡 ### 5/5 — Game is easy and fun *2026-01-29, version 1.251217.1* It is fun but I want quality of life changes. 1) Squad team red and blue are good, but I want to control a single swat member to do specific commands like spot, because there is one time that another swat member doesn’t spot at the direction I’m pointing at, one spots, the other doesn’t 2) more weapon variety? Like pistols for swat, low stopping power but quick to react 3) armored vests, makes the swat team live a bit longer but at the cost of mobility 4) a mini spy camera, while the scout is a unique tool, I want to look see thru the door to know whats behind it ### 5/5 — Gem *2026-01-19* An ads and microtransaction free, simple, engaging, and well made game among the modern slop that has beset the App Store. Could not believe myself that I had found something like this. Thank you Ivan for bestowing this gem upon us. **Developer response:** You're welcome :) Please check out my other games, maybe you'll like them too ;) ### 5/5 — Good *2025-12-28, version 1.251217.1* Great game ### 5/5 — Best game *2025-12-24, version 1.251217.1* Best game for broke people like me ### 5/5 — Vodobanka *2025-12-02, version 1.251107.1* Отличная игра затянула на час 30 минут хотелось бы чтобы игру можно было перевернуть в горизонтальный режим и прикольно было бы сделать мультиплеер удаче в разработке! И да ты хорош что уважаешь игроков, потому что многие большие компании кладут болт на игроков ### 5/5 — tuff *2025-11-28, version 1.251107.1* tuff in india (this is a pretty good game) ### 5/5 — W Game *2025-11-10, version 1.251107.1* Wish there were more games like this out there. ### 5/5 — Music *2025-10-14, version 1.250814.1* The game is super, it's free, the author is great, I just want to ask for two things: add background walking sounds, different sounds besides shooting, and music, please, and it will be super. ### 5/5 — Llegué buscando plata y encontré oro *2025-10-12, version 1.250814.1* Simplemente increíble. Demasiado potencial en este juego. ### 5/5 — 시간 때우기 좋은 게임 *2025-09-27* 할거 없을 때마다 들어가서 하면 시간 금방갑니다 생각보다 재밌네요 잘 즐기고 있습니다 **Developer response:** Thanks for the good review. Please also check out my recent game 'Drevepsina', maybe you'll like it too ;) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2025-07-30, version 1.250520.1* Game is hands down the best cqb game ever made. ### 5/5 — Es increíble *2025-07-30, version 1.250520.1* Me gustaría que lo metieran a consolas Nintendo o Xbox ps ### 5/5 — Wow *2025-07-18, version 1.250520.1* Man thank you for making games that don’t have any paid aspects that are still this fun. All of these games just have such a nice feel to them and you can see the effort put into them. Thank you again, keep this up please! ### 5/5 — спасибо большое за такую прекрасную игру *2025-07-17* спасибо за велеколепную игру, она очень интересная и классная у вас большой потенциал, и спасибо что убрали рекламу, очень хотелось бы 2 часть, с лучшей графикой миханикой и т.д игра очень недооценена ### 5/5 — Спасибо вам Иван. *2025-07-06, version 1.250520.1* Лучшая игра за последнее время. ### 5/5 — Free & Enjoyable Game *2025-06-11* This game is quite straightforward. Your agents are special operatives; they need to accomplish their objective, which is likely getting info from a VIP, neutralizing an enemy, defusing a bomb, or identifying a specific enemy. While this game is free, if you want a better experience like a level-designer or many special operatives (more than 4), you can choose to support the developer, who by the way does not put ads in the game. You can set up a quick game that isn’t a level, and you can adjust a few settings to customize it to your liking. I personally use that feature a lot, especially if I am waiting for something and only have maybe 5 minutes or a bit more. The developer makes some pretty fun games, and this game is no exception. This game is probably tied with the developer’s other game Antiyoy. In the future, I think it would be cool to see a 2-player addition to this game, where you and a friend could play together on separate devices or the same device (I don’t have a specific image in mind) or maybe the players would compete somehow. Either way, this game is very sophisticated for what it is. **Developer response:** Thanks for the good review :) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Amazing but trash *2024-10-13, version 1.240906.1* This game is amazing. Everything about it is awesome except there is one humongous problem. Why can my soldiers see the enemy for like four seconds don’t pull the trigger and then the enemy sees them for one millisecond and they instantly shoot them? ### 2/5 — Glitch on 5th level. *2021-07-31, version 1.1.3* I completed the 5th level with the blockers. The level complete never triggered. I didn’t want to redo the whole level so I just deleted the app. Might have enjoyed it if I could play past the 5th level. ### 2/5 — Not that good *2021-05-18, version 1.1.3* You can’t even schedule moves like other games. The swat members move randomly: even if you separate them the other one randomly walks up to the one you took away. Can’t even make them move accordingly, they always walk too far ahead. ### 3/5 — Highly repetitive *2023-06-17* The game is highly repetitive in gameplay and strategy, the different helps reduce this, but does not change the strategy, flash/stun/shock/smoke/rocket basically completes the exact same purpose of cleaning and area inside a room, and probally Will work the same if the room is small. flashing 10 room is fun, flashing 1000 similar size/similar content room gets boring fast. Furthermore, the long press work very bad on surprising enemies (eg: too many door to block, 2 come in before block completes, etc). just add a gernade button that you can drag to quickly throw gernade. Capture enemy after they surrender also adds Nothing to the game as they always stay still, pure pain. Add more irregular shape room, reduce room number per stage/ bullet blocking furniture/more enemy type/better Ai (eg: run or call support)/allow equipment selection/add alert level(make enemy stronger)/allow individual Unit task assign Will make the game experience better. **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. ### 3/5 — Bug *2021-04-21, version 1.1.1* I’m not very far not the game, but I hate how the tutorial plays every time you restart the level. Also, on like level five if you keep clicking the screen to skip the tutorial and click smoke bomb the whole game freezes and you have to close it. Meh ### 3/5 — IPad - версия *2021-03-17, version 1.1.1* Разработчики: вы круты, спору нет. Но я бы хотел играть в это произведение искусства во весь экран на планшете. Был бы очень признателен за сей презент. Как только будет версия для планшетов - будет 5 звёзд и мой вам респект✌️👍💪 ### 3/5 — AI needs work *2021-02-04, version 1.1.1* There’s no real way to point out objectives in open areas. This means you’ll bring your guys will then stand around completely oblivious as they get picked off. Very frustrating downside of an otherwise great game :( ### 3/5 — Crash *2020-12-07* It crashes during start up in my iPad 3 running iOS 9.3.5 ### 4/5 — 一些建議 *2026-07-01, version 1.260420.1* 遊戲很好，但是對於正常的cqb流程來說，遊戲缺少了些流程。比如切角、一號位先進然後二號位進入（進入房間的順序） ，而不是遊戲中單純的衝房。 如果能再細化一下流程就更好了，比如每個隊員同一時間不同的操作流程 ### 4/5 — Good, except… *2026-04-30* Wishing for a better way to orient the troops, hoping for a system similar to door kickers where I can choose specific paths and give each officer a better command to have everyone look somewhere ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Je to sranda *2026-08-06, version 1.260420.1* Musím říct že mě tato hra velmi zaujala hratelnostně je to skvělé a vizuálně také nemám co vytknout. ### 5/5 — Amazing. *2026-07-22* Another amazing title from my favourite mobile dev. Just had to leave a review on this one because of how fun it is. ### 5/5 — Merita molto *2026-06-09, version 1.260420.1* Penso che abbia bisogno di essere conosciuto da molte più persone questo progetto! Gioco molto bello! ### 5/5 — Perfect in every way *2026-05-24, version 1.260420.1* Exactly what I was looking for, also love the quick play levels ### 5/5 — Игра супер *2026-05-18, version 1.260420.1* Познакомился с этой игрой больше 2-3 лет назад, позже по неизвестным причинам игра либо пропала у меня либо же я сам ее удалил, сейчас решил сесть снова скачать и хочу сказать, какая же все таки интересная и качественная игра, не смотря на простоту. Желаю создателю этого шедевра улучшать свои навыки и производить на свет свои новые творения) ### 5/5 — Лучшая тактическая игра *2026-05-09, version 1.260420.1* Очень крутая и простая игра но жаль что полная версия платная( но всё равно разработчики лучшие ### 5/5 — Underrated Game *2026-05-02, version 1.260420.1* Having no ads is so refreshing. Not many main levels but I was happily surprised to see daily levels and like 100+ community levels. Customization in like weapons, armor and gear could go crazy. Also a mirror gun/snake cam could be nice. This game has a lot of potential and I’m excited to see how it moves forward. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2026-05-02, version 1.260420.1* Super simple, feel like my SWAT force needs to be a little smarter at aiming. But other than that I love this game and look forward to the dev continuing to make RTS games and updating his current ones! ### 5/5 — This deserves recognition *2026-03-30, version 1.251217.1* This game is one of the best, free tactical games similar to door kicker, only a bit less advanced and takes up less storage space. This game is very fun to play, however there can be improvements like different guns and bigger maps or stuff like long stories with chapters to play. Overall i am kinda surprised that this game doesnt have many downloads, but i highly recommend giving this game a try. ### 5/5 — Harika *2026-01-30, version 1.251217.1* Oyun Bence Gayet Güzel Ve Sıkmıyo --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
