Latest update
It has been great up until this latest update, but now the game constantly crashes. It’s infuriating, almost to the point of uninstalling.
Boring repetitive
Paid to win never ending money harvesting for people stupid enough to pay for it
Fake!
The add has nothing to do with the actual game. Don’t waste your time.
Ur mom
This is The most Boring Game I have ever played.

No progression possible!! Pay to play??
I’ve obtained the second part of the car 4 times and it vanishes every single time I stop playing and return!!!
Not as advertised.
This game is not the advertised game. Deleting
Ad problems
You have got to fix the ads here. Mod tot the time I get those double ads, and for the past couple of weeks they have not been giving me my rewards, which is unfair and frustrating. Then almost every time I get an ad that works, it’s for those awful scams where you play games to earn money, and it mutes the audio from other apps on my phone. You shouldn’t be promoting those horrible scam apps. Do better.
Free game but they want your money
Almost every action you do or new screen to swipe to there is some for of ad or buyable pass. There are many $99 bundles and packages and so many more $20 and $50 bundles. Grinding in a game is not bad but when you intentionally make the grind hard and not that rewarding is when you start being problems.
Increasingly moving in the direction of pay to win
This has always been the biggest flaw of the game, but it has been increasingly moving in the direction of pay to win. It doesn’t matter how much time you invest or your skill, the progression is so painfully slow. I’ve played for over a year. The only way to really progress at a reasonable pace is to make purchases, but none of the options are remotely worth it. $30 for a single epic level item? Barely will get you anywhere.
There are also so many bugs with the monsters that just randomly damage you. The only saving grace is you can take advantage of a few of them to get ahead, but the only things they patch are those loopholes that make the game fair. Rebalancing is only done to make the progression even slower. I’m deleting the game. Greedy.

Not like the other games
This game sucks it ain’t even close to the other games, and all these bots saying this is is a good game they are lying.
Trash
Ad filled trash that makes my phone extremely hot and drains my battery after playing for 10 mins.
Pay to win
The game is fun, but come on. The unrealistic damage in this game is unbearable I can’t even pass stage 17. I don’t know what happened to the developers of this game, but they’ve become more greedy which is sad. Just like any other developers out there, they want you to spend on a game that’s really not worth spending on. It’s nice that they do updates and add stages, but at least tweak the damage output on the weapons and enemies. The game is flawed on how the enemies damage you.
Вылетает !!! Crashes !!!

Не советую
олдам этой серии игр не рекомендую в это играть. на машинах ездить не интересно, куча фарма и однотипный гейплей который душит всю игру. лучше с кайфом перепройдите предыдущие части
This is NOT Earn to Die
This “game” is another soulless cheap freemium game that uses the Earn to Die name and throws its face in the dirt. S-Grade Crates, ads for extra loot, and the fact that the driving that earn to die is known for takes roughly an hour before it shows up for the second time.
If you saw an ad for this game and were hoping for a nostalgic experience; all you’ll get is the same mobile game slop that preys the App Store nowadays

Not making any progress.
I’m only level 5 and the progress falloff is insane. I genuinely don’t know how to get the stuff I need for upgrades. I can’t progress in the shooter segments or the driving ones so I’m just deleting this game. It’s not a good Rougelike, 2D shooter, or driving game.
stupid
situpid
Not a E2D game.
This is a warning. This is a generic run through buildings games plagued by P2W options.
There is no actual E2D gameplay besides very short sections with the cars, and the entire game revolves around the boring shoot em up sections rather than what the series was build off of.
Stay away if you’re looking for the OG because it’s not here.

Where’s the driving?
If I wanted a platform shooter, I wouldn’t play earn to die.
Nothing like the old game
They try to turn this game into a platform shooter and honestly it’s terrible
Greedy low effort game
takes the core element of the whole series, the driving mode, and makes it an optional side thing in favor of a survivor.io ripoff. horrible gacha system, a battle pass, and pretty much no way to progress without watching 20+ ads everyday or by spending money. Not worth the time to play and im saying this as someone whos loved the series since the first game released :/ This is NOT earn to die nor is it a good standalone game. botted reviews and terrible mechanics 👎
Unhappy
Turned one of my favorite childhood games into a porn cash grab rated 13+ and putting 18+ ads is wild do not let your kids play this ads need a serious rework
Gotcha game at its finest
Downloaded it after seeing an add and remembered loving the original on the computer growing up. Now you barely even get to drive and it’s just a platform shooter riddled with so many ads you can’t go more than a few minutes without being forced to watch one.
Cash grab
Just a rip off of another game sad to see earn to die be this way
Car is a mini game wtf
The challenge modes are easier than the main levels, all enemies are bullet sponges to the point that mini bosses seem meaningless, I’m hitting a rat with a laser cannon with multi shot, and it tanks 4 hits, the first area was fun but once you get to the mall it’s uphill from then on, also it’s a side scrolling platforming bullet hell which means dodge it’s nearly impossible, also speaking of platforming all the platforms are at wonky heights where you need to double jump to get to a platform right above you.
Silly Aiming
Stupid auto-aiming mechanism. Are you using this mechanism to artificially increase the difficulty?
They weakened the perks to get more money.
Game is fun but they are making it worse to get people to spend money. So don’t buy anything because they will make it less valuable
Expensive! ADs!
Used to be a fun game. As you advance in the game your weapons have little effect which forces you to spend $$$ to continue advancing. $30 a weapon and you need several to merge and strengthen them. Tons of ads.
Earn to die
Would be a fun game, but its a money grab, not worth your time
Earn to die? more like Earn the chance to drive. Not worth a try if youre looking for the past games
in reality this game is not exactly like the previous games where the drive through zombies part is actually more sidelined to force you to play multi room stage level where you play as a guy with a gun jumping around killing waves of zombies til eventually fighting a bullet sponge and bullet hell type final boss at the end with whatever abilities you chose along the way, which granted is fun at first but gets repetitive after numerous tries when im trying to play the main game that its named after/advertised as. When doing those levels you can complete missions that will grant you scrap to then upgrade the cars instead of using money like before but becomes very tedious since you only get 3 missions a day unless you watch an AD to get another mission but beside that you hardly get any scrap to upgrade, you can also get scrap on driving levels but not sufficient enough to make a big impact so it just forces you back to grinding those out of the car missions that just gets more and more repetitive. Its very disappointing since these games were one of my favorite childhood games.
How?
Compared to the last games this is so similar to the regular blathered mobile games available on the market now. What made earn to die so well was the seamless fun of driving the car and hitting zombies and now you’ve gotta play a half baked platformer to even do that. I know it was there way of avoiding making the game paid but the ads just ruin the whole vibe even if optional. It feels less like it was made by a dude who liked zombies and was all like “hell yeah” and more like a bunch of suits going “how can we make money” really rubs me the wrong way
Free to play my ash!
Somebody said this game wasn’t pay to play and he was LYING. Youlll either be watching 1000 10 minute ads or your paying. The cheapness of this game and how they ramp damage up against you in the first few levels is astounding! And the ads!!! All of them a long as hell and then the ad continues with an additional timer. You’ll spend WAY more time watching ads for the same three money grab games than you ever will playing the actual game. That is if you wanna level up in any fashion. after level 10, forget it. This game markets itself as a zombie game but you’ll spend time fighting and being annihilated by these fun turrets which the game uses as its cheat mechanic. Who TF built all these turrets during a zombie outbreak??? Stupid game design. Anyway these gun turrets after level 10 have huge shells that slowly bounce around the screen and then when they’re ready to cheat you hard they have tons of turrets on a level to the point thee ENTIRE screen is bullets slowly bouncing around. You literally have no where to go but to take significant damage and die. I’ve spent money on this game AND I STILL HAVE TO WAYCH HOURS AND HOURS OF ADS TO MAKE ANY PROGRESS. This game was designed and created by the Russian Mob. Seriously.
Kill the Long ads, please
3 minute adds are popping up and some of them freeze the game so you have to restart and lose one of you plays for the daily challenges….
Not Earn to die
The game is fun but grinding for the materials for the car is sooooo annoying. Took me a week of playing to beat the first driving map, I love a game that takes time to beat but not games that aren’t story based. The upgrades are terrible, and I get wayyyyy more cash than I’m able to use. They hardly ever give gold or steel and that’s why I’m giving it 2 stars.
Take drones out
Flying drones and turrets are just plain annoying taking a quarter of my hp away in one hit
Not the same
The original aspect of upgrading your car is a side thought in this. You also hit a point where you stop earning anything for your car and have to keep grinding in the other mode to make any type of progress. I really tried to like it, but there’s too much repetition with no feeling of progress
Mr autofire?? And survivor io
The levels/looting and upgrades and playstyle is literally exactly like the game Mr autofire which came out first. 30 rooms, upgrades as you win rooms, option for heal or attack speed every 10 rooms. Like where is the originality. No doubt that it was stolen idea. And the upgrades to your items out of game is identical to survivor.io
Update: Degrade
Latest update seemed to nerf your guns. It was just a way to fidget anyway. Update, the game is getting worse with each passing “update”.
