Played a lot. If you want to pass all their levels, you’re going to have to PAY more than a PlayStation 5 to get the weapons. The new updates have gotten in the way of game play. They have an auto fire option now that you always hit when playing and will destroy your own base before you get the hang of it. There are so many pop ups to buy weapons, and messages that have nothing to do with game play. They are simply huge destructions that take away from the fun game that it WAS. If you want to level up. Be prepared to sink SERIOUS coin, or spend every weekend playing the tournaments, for about 3-4 years to get to level 1 that will allow you to beat 90% of the game levels. On top of spending a lot of money for the gold to compete in those tournaments. Game used to be fun, but with these unnecessary upgrades and consistent interruptions, it’s too distracting. Yeah, I’m upset, because I enjoyed playing this for almost 8 years. ### 3/5 — Gets impossibly hard unless you ‘pay to win’ *2026-08-27, version 1.7.53* Game itself is good, but get a point and the game becomes impossible to win unless you have the top tier weapons which are, you guessed it, pay to own. And I’m not talking cheap upgrades, I’m talking hundred of pounds to buy weapons that can match the task. ### 3/5 — Auto fire switch *2026-08-27, version 1.7.53* Nobody asked for that… remove it! When trying to use my bottom weapon I always hit those switches and it messes up the timing of my firing as I cycle between targets ### 2/5 — Heavy artillery RPG! *2026-08-25, version 1.7.48* This game is unreal, delivering high quality graphics with smooth real time simulation battles! The best warfare game! ### 3/5 — No rewards for watching ads *2026-07-09, version 1.7.47* Good up to level 30, but then impossible without paying money. Watch ads for rewards, then no reward given. ### 4/5 — Weapon prices *2026-07-08, version 1.7.47* This game is absolutely amazing. Great in every regards the developers really put a lot of work into this game and you can tell. However, one thing that is a bit excessive is the Ingame purchase prices. Most other games they have reasonable prices, this game wants way too much for everything! If the prices were a lot lower than more people would be willing to buy things in the store. Anyway, other than that great game would definitely recommend. ### 3/5 — I don’t play any more *2026-06-30, version 1.7.47* The game gets to repetitive, if you were able to use troop movements better it would be much more enjoyable. ### 5/5 — Vehicles *2026-06-25, version 1.7.47* Fun and addictive and i have played the game for years and the only thing that i would add is cars ### 5/5 — NO ANNOYING ADS!!! *2026-06-24, version 1.7.47* 1st off, this is a great game in general. I was suspicious of the graphics they advertise, but when I opened the app, it was exactly as good! Also, ads are optional!it’s only for rewards and stuff like that, but hey, they gotta make sponsor money somehow. Best zombie-shooting, airplane-flying game ever! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-06-24, version 1.7.47* The game is totally brilliant gets harder though I’m still at level 4 ish I can’t get enough best mobile game app I’ve ever played ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Deceptive purchase windows inside game ads *2026-08-28, version 1.7.53* Been player for couple years but leaving. BE CAREFUL now of the ingame free play ads. They added a purchase trap. When you play the demo of ad game, they slip in a to game pack purchase window for $99.99 add-on in zombie gunship. Come on… ### 1/5 — Pay to win *2026-08-10, version 1.7.48* Title is all you need to know ### 1/5 — ZGS -1 *2026-08-08, version 1.7.48* I’ve(we’ve all, exc the hackers) been reduced to the most basic of basic campaigns with this last downdate. Thanks Team ZGS, bravo. ### 1/5 — Pay for play and game uses Bots!!!!! *2026-07-12, version 1.7.47* I’ve been a long time player now, one of the first 50k to download the game. It used to be a fun game where you leveled up and got cool weapons the more you played. Now you can only get the legendary weapons and prototypes by paying more money for a gun than would for a PS5. Or you have the opportunity to play in a tournament. You have to spend copious amounts of gold to play. (15K a weekend just to place) but hey, for $200 you can buy 20K gold. Btw those tournaments are complete BS. You will be number 1 locally on Saturday with the next closest competitor 10 games behind you. Wake up Sunday morning, a few hours later and you are on a completely different “local” group but now in 2nd or 3rd spot. And 15+ games behind, so you spend more money to play the game all weekend long in hopes of getting some weapons you can use to pass the levels in the game. If you play, it will but fun. But be prepared to either shell out a mortgage payment or two to get enough firepower to play the levels, or be like me and play for 9 freaking years, and still not be able to complete the levels they come out with, over the last 2-3 years. It loses its fun playing the same 4 levels over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over…… ### 1/5 — Developers are asking for too much *2026-07-05, version 1.7.47* You developers need to lessen the requirements for the leaderboard missions from 120 to something more realistic because you guys are just forcing us to have to buy in-game gold to be able to complete the requirements needed. Plus the weapons randomization for opening crates sucks, we will never get a legendary gunship weapon and troop weapon unless you buy it will real money. ### 1/5 — 官方不作为，只想圈钱 *2026-06-30, version 1.7.47* 各种bug层出不断，前些阵子卖130美金的包下一个星期直接卖一百美金，这不就是背刺吗？这谁还敢充钱？各种强力武器层出不穷，我看这游戏是僵尸求生，直接无敌了都 ### 1/5 — Developers are asking for too much *2026-06-28, version 1.7.47* You developers need to lessen the requirements for the leaderboard missions from 120 to something more realistic because you guys are just forcing us to have to buy in-game gold to be able to complete the requirements needed. ### 1/5 — Be prepared *2026-06-08, version 1.7.46* Game starts off good, but even with awesome weapons they make it impossible to proceed unless you spend a ton of money, zombies that run a 100 mph… come on really ???? Stupid ### 1/5 — Creators interested in greedy money scheme *2026-06-04, version 1.7.46* All they care about is ad revenue,15 ads when you die, and endless ads when you go from menu to another menu, cant play the game when all thats on my screen is another AD, but they don’t care, they didn’t create this app for the game play, they created a non-stop revenue stream for themselves, they could care less what the app does. ### 1/5 — Скучная игра *2026-05-21* Все ваши события в формате «новое оружие, которое делает чуть-чуть больше обычного и больше ничего». Добавьте разнообразие - новые самолеты, постройки, способности (например вызов десанта, удара, танк, бтр, …). Добавьте уже что-нибудь интересное кроме скучного геймплея **Developer response:** Thank you for your interest in our game! Feedback received from our players is very important to us.

Helps me on a bad day. That probably sounds weird, but it really helps me out. I thank the developers for creating a successful game on their part and for giving a game to mobile players. ### 5/5 — Peak *2026-08-14, version 1.7.48* This game is absolutely perfect❤️ ### 5/5 — W game *2026-08-09, version 1.7.48* This game hasn’t changed anything in the game thank you for not changing the deals and 1 dollar for a free op gun is insane I am happy about that and I have been playing your game since I was five and it is a good game in the future you should do party’s so you could play with other people and you should add friend request ### 5/5 — Honestly don’t wanna stop playing *2026-08-03, version 1.7.48* Game so fun should consider making another one ngl love this game tho keep up the good work guys:) ### 5/5 — 面白いです。 *2026-07-29* 最初は無課金でプレイ。 しかしすぐに詰まったので課金しました。 確かに無課金と課金の差は激しいとは思いますが、それは当然かと思います。 むしろガチャではなく狙い撃ちで最強ランクの武器を買い切りで買えるので良心的かと。 私個人がやれガチャだ天井だというシステムが嫌いで、課金したら課金した分の恩恵を感じたい派なので買い切りは素晴らしいです。 最強ランクの武器を買えば無双できめっちゃストレス発散になります。 そしてイベントもありますが、もちろん上位勢は課金で固めているので対抗するなら課金は必須ですが、ランキングを左右するのは武器の強さだけではなく、どれだけイベントを回せるかも含まれます。 正直最強ランク武器３つで固めれば凸などはしなくても火力が足りないということはありません。 勝負になってくるのはどれだけイベントを回せるかです。 そしてイベントで上位に入れば最強ランクの武器を景品で貰えるので、そこも面白いポイントです。 いつかガチで参加したいです。 ゲーム自体は米軍のAC130というガンシップで地上部隊をゾンビから守るというものですが、よく出来ていると思いますしガンシップが好きな人には刺さると思います。 **Developer response:** Thank you for being part of our gaming community!

Have been playing it for a few years. Despite the fact that the only way to make progress is to purchase the expensive crates, I think it is a fantastic game overall. ### 5/5 — My opinion of this game: *2026-07-08, version 1.7.47* Honestly I really like this game, the systems at place are fairly easy to understand and the game itself is really fun! The updates that have been made have always been enjoyable and felt like they belonged as opposed to other games. Progression is a little slow but I’m fine with it. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
