★★★★ Dare 5/8/2026 v1.0.42
RNG defense is surprisingly fun, but no way to permanently disable ads. There is only a monthly pass option.
★★★★ Katie Hill 5/6/2026
blech
★★★★ Paul Blanchard 5/6/2026 v1.0.42
hot garbage, your defense does not depend on skill or heros that you own. You are completely at the mercy of the garbage the game picks for you to put out. An example would be you can play a level and die in 3 minutes and play the same level with the same exact people and not get hit once.
★★★★ Tyler K 5/6/2026 v1.0.42
Genuinely impossible to lose, the game is practically on autopilot. Mildly annoying to play as combining two units of the same type results in a level 2 unit of a random type.
★★★★ Google Sucks 5/5/2026 v1.0.34
Boring and false advertising.
★★★★ Justin Ross 5/5/2026 v1.0.42
why does the game make a call when starting?
★★★★ Rubens Garcia 5/5/2026 v1.0.42
This game is not at all like the ads, and the 1000 draws are basically nothing. Hard pass, if I could give this zero stars I would.
★★★★ Tim Reese 5/2/2026 v1.0.42
The game actively stacks the odds either for or against you. I've been hard stuck on a level because of this; it refuses to spawn one of my towers either on buy or on merge. But on other levels, the spawns are more or less even odds (as much as you can get with RNG)
★★★★ Jordan Montgomery 5/1/2026 v1.0.42
The game is not as advertised.
★★★★ Michael 5/1/2026 v1.0.42
game didn't even load and I am tired of trying.
★★★★ anh son 4/30/2026 v1.0.42
worst game ever
★★★★ SomethingAppropriate 4/30/2026 v1.0.42
Another game with scummy clickbait ads that don't at all match the game.
★★★★ Vinh Phan 4/30/2026
false advertising. using Pokémon image. Game is too random for any true fun
★★★★ The Garcia's 4/29/2026
at first the game went pretty solid,now the game over the period of time went downhill with being kicked off the game,lagging or just straight up freezing at the most inconvenient times,now this new event called witch craft has made not want to play this game at all!I'm a man of God and the fact that they put witch craft in there game is genuinely upsetting!I do not recommend downloading this game,I played the game for months but after the witch craft I draw a line😡
★★★★ Adam 4/29/2026 v1.0.42
I have to bring the review down to a 1 because suddenly the game just stopped working. it just sits there constantly trying to connect. and it's not on my end since I'm playing from the same places I always play from
★★★★ Everkill13 4/27/2026
Game is nothing like the advertisement
★★★★ Robert 4/26/2026 v1.0.42
major bugs.. The game will not even load for me any more...
★★★★ Fronslin 4/26/2026
why was i shown borderline NSFW ads for such a boring game?
★★★★ Sergejs Novikovs 4/26/2026 v1.0.42
The game hits a massive paywall around Stage 80-90. I’ve spent about 150€ and still can’t progress. Loot drops are extremely low, upgrades take weeks, and Coop Floor 8 is a pure stat wall. The chat system is laggy, glitchy, and the message limit is tiny, making communication impossible. Once you reach mid game, there’s nothing to do except repeat the same floor for almost no rewards. Fun at the start, but becomes a frustrating pay to progress grind. I do not recommend wasting your time.
★★★★ Evangelos Lamaris 4/26/2026 v1.0.42
give new players a lot of stamina so they can actually play the game
★★★★ Svetoslav Nikolov 4/25/2026 v1.0.42
Game starts off really nice and easy. It gets harder as you can imagine and that's OK. Soon you hit the Pay2Win wall but that's also not the worst thing. However, having different servers that players can interact with each other in Arena and Co-Op having different high end heroes that aren't even available and facing opponents in arena that have other things unlocked like healing or trap devices is not acceptable. Lost interest faster than any other game I've ever played. Waste of time! Next!
★★★★ Frank Prueter 4/25/2026
it doesnt load on my phone s25 Ultra.
★★★★ Enoch The Anointed 4/25/2026 v1.0.42
I can't get over the really poor targeting. Like the wall is being attacked and all my towers are choosing not to defend for some odd reason. But then when I re-do the round their somehow smarter. It really seems like 3 stars first go around is meant to fail in order to drain stamina/food.
★★★★ chris Durham 4/24/2026
app is trash. downloaded and started game. done may times. it goes to load screen and freezes. never starts.
★★★★ Shawn Charron 4/24/2026 v1.0.42
misleading ads that say server for 1, everything in the shop is free... but it's not real. very disappointed
★★★★★ Buck. weasel 5/5/2026 v1.0.42
when doing hero recruitment it keeps taking 10 of my summon slips I've lost 30 so far and got nothing for them. i want my 3 summons and my 600 diamonds back.
★★★★★ Adam Reyna 5/4/2026 v1.0.42
spent money on it but really not worth it all it does it crash now
★★★★★ kale rodriguez 5/3/2026
fun concept but the tower ai is ridiculous, instead of targeting the enemy closest to the wall they target enemies further away leading to damage being taken. which sucks because the final chest for each level need 100% hp clear to get. Taking 1 unnecessary hit means you don't get the 3rd chest for the level
★★★★★ nels larson 5/3/2026 v1.0.42
it's ok
★★★★★ Eric Gilbert 5/3/2026 v1.0.42
Fun game, but the customer support sucks. I experienced a glitch where I didnt receive my Crystal Ruah rewards. I reached out to customer support and they told me I received them on 05-01 via email. ive placed top 20 in every rush since I started playing and rewards have NEVER been distributed via email. be weary about this support team. its very subpar.
★★★★★ Scott Price 5/2/2026 v1.0.42
This could easily be a great game but there's one glaring problem that I can't ignore, that being the randomness of the merge mechanic. If you merge two archers, you'd think you'd get a better archer... no, now suddenly the archers that you've spent resources to enhance are now an upgraded version of the frost mage that you haven't enhanced at all and now you're losing the battle. Update: dropping a star due to developer unsuccessfully defending a game breaking mechanic.
★★★★★ Nate Piza 4/29/2026
Fake ads, fake game.
★★★★★ Martha Sickling 4/28/2026
not really a game. buying a unit summons a random unit into a random space. combining units results in a random higher level unit. there's no way to strategize or "be good". The gameplay is simply clicking a button when it's available or dragging units when they're available.
★★★★★ Pat Jones 4/27/2026 v1.0.42
Why don't my game look like the thumbnails?
★★★★★ Richard D 4/24/2026 v1.0.42
a game with a decent premise but built around how they can force you into watching 15+ ads a day or buying a pass to skip them
