Like a FPS like Lost Planet/Halo/Marathon
Has the feel of the old time dungeon crawling alien first person shooters but mix in some deck building action. Love the card designs; enemy units; different weapons. Great game would love an Xbox one port with achievements.
Almost Great
I really like this game as the coop is awesome. But it’s freaking buggy and there’s no way to undo some things you are stuck with it. It’s hard so these frustrating broken ai choices it forces you into break the game. Good job on the game, keep at it. It’s almost there.
Years later, still not balanced
I like the idea of this game. I like the styling of this game. I like the system used by this game. I do not like the balance of this game. I get that the game creators like games that may be impossible to win even even if the player was clairvoyant and used perfect strategy. I don’t.
Recomendo
Muito bem feito e dinâmico. Roda bem no meu IPad Air.
Great visuals, Asmodee’s same terrible interface
This game looks great and keeps in the spirit of the board game. However, trying to play cards and/or their abilities is atrocious. Typical from Asmodee games on the phone that I have played. Spend more time trying to perform functions and actions than making strategic decisions.
challenging game! Crying out for local play or pass n play
I want to play this with friends, at least as pass n play or better still, with both of us on our own iPads. I am not interested in online.
However as a solo game it is still great, really tough, good visuals and simple mechanics, you can also play as the other players by simply controlling their resources- it works fine.
This is a very good implementation of the board game
I.E. a thematic alien vs man survival deckbuilder, easy to learn and a game takes between 5-25 minutes, although only if you survive that long! Not won yet, not because of poor or unrealistic AI, but because it is a really hard game!

Excellent game. No bugs I can see
A well made game of co-op troop management. Usually I find deck builders to have pasted on theme but this one has mechanics that decently reflect the theme it is trying to convey. Though this is weakened with the psyonics and gen mid expansion a bit I feel.
A little practice has us winning easily at 2 division. Game is rather hard at 1 division. The difficulty settings are well gauged with easy being quite easy, normal being a decent challenge and hard being insane.
I definitely suggest getting the elites expansion. It’s a couple bucks but gives a lot more theme and strategy to the game by allowing surviving troops to level up.
My only complaint involves the UI for activating the expansions you have bought. There are expansions to the base game, an expandalone game, and expansions to that other game. Some of the expansions work with the base game some work on both and some only on the second game.
This is the nature of the game, very complicated, but the UI doesn’t help at all by explaining the difference between playing Onslaught with the Dreadmire expansion and playing Dreadmire with the Onslaught expansion. It’s very confusing with no information to decipher the puzzle.

Fun but crashed first time I switched apps.
It’s gripping. I’m buying the board game. But this thing crashed. I was in my way to winning. I don’t even think it saved that I was winning, so a total waste of time.
Update: crash the second time I played and I did not even switch out of the app. Considering asking for a refund because this is unplayable.

Buggy Mess
Buttons are tied to animations. So hitting the done button twice too quickly will skip entire phases, bypassing the game’s own warning prompts. An easy fix to this would be the ability to go back to acquire phase from deploy phase.
A few cards need more detail, such as the Prototype Heat Lance Shotgun which doesn’t specify that it only targets it’s own lane. There are also other bugs such as being unable to discard certain cards during wrap-up phase, which ended up costing me a Hard game on the very last round.

Must be fixed! Works great!
I took a chance on this, seeing all of the negative reviews, but the crashing issues are fixed! I had no issues on my iPhone X or iPad Air 2. It requires patience learning how to activate abilities/card effects (play the tutorial). Of course it's more fun co-op, but solo mode is a blast. This game is alot of fun and very challenging. Good luck!

Ver 2.0.2 crashes after deploy phase.
Updated review for 2.0.2. iPad 4 iOS 10.3.3 - game crashes but after deployment phase.
Génial !
Horrible, ce jeu est machiavélique, les monstres sont sans pitiés, on se fait trépaner affreusement ... et pourtant on y retourne ... manque que la traduction en français, iPad pro
Great game but...
This game is really fun but the multiplayer is basically impossible to finish because of bugs. Also the art is really satisfying.
Multiplayer broken
3 attempts to complete a multiplayer game, keeps crashing. If this was fixed I’d rate it 4 star. Waste of time and money right now.
Potential But Too Many Issues
This app has a lot to love, good art and animations, smooth flow, and a good core engine.
Too bad no one at CMON apparently ever played this game. This game is beyond hard, in many ways it is impossible to win. One example, in wave one, you could get a combination of two enemies that can nullify most of you attacks, this means in round one, through no fault of your own, you can lost half or more of your bases hp against the easiest wave, and that is just one example. The game is littered with impossible combinations. Once you get the engine down you should be able to get to round 7 consistently, but anything beyond that is all up to the random gods.
I even bought some expansions in hopes it would make the game winnable. No luck there.
In addition the app is buggy, constantly freezing and forcing you to close, save, and restart.
So here is an app that should be getting four or even five stars getting two because CMON doesn't seem to care. Too bad.

Buggy
Game is fantastic, hands down. That's not in debate. The app is buggy though. You can't draw any of the free troops to fill your line, and if the screen ever locks, you can't proceed. It won't allow item selection when you unlock the screen. 😞 Very sad, as this awesome game needs more exposure, bad exposure may kill it prematurely though.

Bug bug bug (and not the good one)
Game full of bug. Crashes, I cannot even start a game. Then when I delete and reinstall, I might be able to play one or 2 games before the t get unplayable again. iPad Air 2
Entertaining but Unwinnable
This game shows a lot of promise. Unfortunately, they should have tested it a bit before releasing it, as it is so unbalanced as to be fully unwinnable. If you play perfectly, you can actually make it to the 8th of 9 rounds before the enemy's extremely over powered cards wipe you out. This is in "easy" mode. They need to rebalance the game. This could be achieved by starting your base with 30 hit points rather than 20. Otherwise, this is like an 80s arcade game, you can never win, you just get as far as you can before you inevitably lose.

Tons of Fun
Sure you lose nine out of 10 times when playing the AI, but it's addictive to try to pick the weapons/first aid/armor/action cards and lay out your troops in order to survive against the relentless aliens. Very high quality production. It appears updates have fixed most issues
Trop chere
