this game was not made for and maybe not even by humans. it is completely obscene that even in the tutorial enemies are ludicrous damage sponges and theres no hope you could ever have to escape this terrible ramshackle of a game design. unless youre the true target audience, reptilian oil barons or a homunculi, there can be no joy to be found.
good game. kind of addictive but in a good way. the style of the game so simple yet so good.
absolutely sucks I played it and the progression is slow and it's too hard to defeat the things without much upgrades
Gameplay is repetitivem made worse by by looping adverts that have no exit button after last maintenance. Ads by cloudt ase, petals my, al madkhal and lucky slots will cause google play pc game to freeze and progress lost. It appears that there is no policing of the advertisements to ensure that they can be exited.
Fun game to pass the time however in the long run it's Pay to win and an Ad based game, lots of content and features requires you to watch ads, even the daily mission that gives you the currency you need to pull the gacha requires you to watch 3 ads literally forcing you to do so.
ads ruin it! i would give this sign up five stars if whenever an ad would open up. It didn't lock you out of the game. s25 ultra
absolute grind/payvwall at stage 10, likely to quit the game soon
slow game that wants $10 a month or $50 bucks just to speed up the gameplay...yeah no thanks
Completely RNG. This game is trash. I wish I could give this 0 stars. Don't waste your time.
The game got hit by profanity filter 😭
Terrible game. Has limited energy which makes playing the game limited too. Pay to progress type. Gatcha tower defense game which randomizes your success with weapon choices, giving you a flat 22% chance to select a decent item for the entire duration of the game. Very slow energy replenishment which makes you wait hours to play another round.
Hard for newbi
garbage towers to many enemies don't waste your time
Energy required to play = 1 star.
It would've been nice if the system wasn't so luck based
very expensive in game items+ it's very difficult to progress after level 15
it's all about ads to make money easy to un install
just when you have a nice strategic play the cards draw will just ruins your strat what a waste of time time to play this game.
pay to win, stuck level, boring rewards, unfair cards system, not recommended to play.
up to level three and then your not beating it without paying something
Online only. uninstalled
fun until stage 5 then meh...
over monetized, under fun
typical play to win garbage game. fun at first but gameplay becomes impossible to progress through without spending money on upgrades.
Ads Galore The insane amount of ads I got after downloading this game made me uninstall it. The ads weren't in the game, every other YouTube ad, I got an ad for this game. Save yourself from the repetition
3 4 leves in and you'll have to spend some money in order to upgrade in order to get further into the game... total rip-off and a waste of my time.
the more you progress the messier the gameplay.
game is too hard and I got to the second level, not even fun
terrible
"Often, when the ad finishes, I can't close it." "Data is not syncing when switching between PC and mobile."
Its fun until level 5, where you get hard locked into either losing, or spending your money. The rng is clearly completely rigged so you don't get the purple upgrades so you lose. Oh well. Scumbags gatta make money somehow.
It's totally pay to win. After level 15 you must spend otherwise you won't progress. I would have made a few purchase but the prices are way too much for a basic game. At the price of all basic passes, I can have more than 10 copies of cyberpunk! How can the devs justify the prices of in app purchase vs development cost? Uninstalling.
All gameplay is selecting one card out of random 3 ones, that's it. Nothing player can do to win a game but just hope for luck on random cards or loose enough times to grind some levels or pay for microtransactions. Game is extremely pushy for you to spend your money and ads are like 1-2 minutes long. It's not a tower defense, don't waste your time.
Pay to win game. nothing more than that.
non existent support. wrote to them after their promo code failed to actually give any items in game, now it says I've used it. support says don't see a problem. now ignores all emails. way too many ads, all over a minute long normally. don't waste your time supporting a game where they don't care about the player experience.
Ads ruined this. Game started great, but now ads on every level, some take 3 bloody minutes, almost as long as the entire play time of a level it self!! would not be a issue if it would not affect gameplay but it 100% does.
NOT as advertised. No breakout block destruction as in the ad I was shown.
Fake, Dont Work, Only Ads
I want to like this game but you have to watch addls a lot which I wouldn't have issue with to get extra things but when you do there is 50/50 chance the game will start over and you sat through ad for nothing and have to redo an entire stage over again
ads never stop, all I got to do was play kingshot, and I never got the chest rewards for it.
honestly, it was pretty decent. that being said, just like most of these games. you hit a hard paywall. once almost cleared world 4 without taking damage but hitting level five youre immediately stuck if you dont spend money. and one free chest a day isnt enough when it comes to item acquisition & you dont get nearly enough gems to buy chests for items. long story short its definitely a time killer but ultimately unless you spend money the games over at level 5
First off, pay to win. Second, rigged asf. Third, add blaster 3000. The thing about this game is, the devs hate it. I mean that, they do not like this game. The only reason this game exists is to farm ad revenue, and the only passion the devs have is tricking you into watching more ads by designing their game in a way that makes you feel like you're progressing but you will -never- get top tier anything.
good game, lots of varying enemies and weapons. but not designed to be playable without watching ads or In App Purchases, will stuck at stage 5 without any ads
not f2p friendly, the 7 day boot camp is designed for people to top up. rng heavy game. your gear and chips might be tailored to specific turrets but the level will have you be at the mercy of rng to get the specif turrets. if not your those chips are basically useless. can't stack same effect chip on a gear pc for a general build. gear slot unlock is expensive in terms of free crystal given per stage
if you like getting 1 week of fun play out of a game and then having to spend a whole paycheck to power up enough to beat the level you're stuck on ONLY to the get stuck on the next one unless you spend another paycheck to get passed it, THEN THIS IS THE GAME FOR YOU!!!!! And the way the game is setup, you know in the first 30sec of every 7-10min battle whether you are gonna even have a "chance" of beating it.
You are playing a loosing game , unless you pay
good game, unfortunately the progress is terrible unless you pay for things or watch adverts, the levels are way to hard for the progress you can make on your turrets, made me uninstall
there might be a fun game in here somewhere, but scaling isn't great, so you really do feel required to watch ads so you can get those extra turret bonuses each game, there's better turret defence games out there.
had potential, fun but they make it way too hard to make you spend money and ruins the fun
I played this game for over a year. I was happy to spend coin on this game. I recently uninstalled it. The good news is the devs tweak this game. The bad news? The more often than not get the balance wrong. I'm pro experimentation. I'm pro a challenge (in fact over level 100) but I can't overlook the fact that the devs purposely push the balance WAY out of whack to drive users to buy packs to advance. When you bring it up on the discord, they resoundingly reply "coverage" Its Gaslighting.
