Nothing like the advertising
Trash
Mr
It is nothing like the ad
Fun but poor design.
Fun game but glitches out and wastes my life’s with out the reward. Constantly restarting my device and only works maybe 2 levels.
Pay to play
This game is dumb if u don’t spend a dumb amount of money you can’t have fun.
Not like the ads
Annoying
Game sucks
Add is nothing like the game
Same thing over and over
Only thing that changes is the outfit of your warriors. It’s the same levels on repeat and then you just start over after you get to the next timeline. This game only exists for ad revenue.
Pure Moneygrab
Do you like Ads? How about when you say no to the ad for bonus currency? Guess what Ad.
Want to actually progress? Better open up that bank account/credit card. I actually had multiple instances where i mysteriously lost in game premium currency (Diamonds/Gems) and had a negative balance overnight. How is that even possible?
Gameplay is whatever. Its there purely to facilitate ad revenue for the developers. They do add and change things up frequently but unless you want to sink hundreds of dollars to even get to higher tiers of gameplay then its not worth it

ADS
i deleted the game because it’s ridiculous the amount of ads that there is.

Boooooring
14 levels in and there’s no explanation or what does what. It’s so simplistic and basic that it’s mind numbing. I’ll be deleting the game as soon as I finish this review.
Too many ads! Unstable ad system
Ad system is unstable but essential for most of game play, huge waste of time waiting for ads to load. Reduction in gems but not the price of anything! Mini games arre boring and competing in mini games is too much of a guessing match. Why are all the number details hidden.
Crash, crash, crashing
I can’t even get to the end of a board without the app freezing and crashing entirely. Do better.
If this is optimized…
I’d hate to see what it was like before. Play is horribly choppy, often 10 seconds between frames (0.1 fps) and makes device hot to hold. Game uses entire processor and internet connection to send data (probably including your personal data) to game servers, nothing left to let you play the game.
Awesome game but keeps crashing.
UPDATE: current version of game 1.15.4 still glitches and crashes.
Its true this game puts out false advertising. There is a challenge that is similar to the ads but you cant unlock it until timeline 3. The more you play, the more you can do. It gets fun by timeline 5. Lots of side challenges and you can customize and upgrade your warriors. I havnt put any money into this game and i dont plan on it. Totally free. Lots of ads but most of them are voluntary for extra rewards.
My 1 star rating is due to the fact that the game wont stay open for even two minutes without lagging and crashing. Already did troubleshooting and already submitted a claim on their website. When the game is actually functional, id be more than happy to change the rating.
Also I have definitely noticed issues with damage stats not performing accurately and coin collection not being accurate. One time i went up to level 52 to boost coin collection and i couldnt collect more than 1.7k coins in one play-through, which made it terribly hard to pass it. When i did pass it, stats were working again. But now game is unplayable.

Scammers
Seems like a decent game and time killer, but their offers for “no ads” are a blatent lie and money grab. So now you paid are out about $15 and ads still exist in the game. Dont purchase anything from their store, they lie.
False advertising
The game is nothing like the ad , it’s a completely different game , why do you advertise one thing and download something totally different !
Ads on ads on ads
Not only was it bad enough to have an ad after every “game”. There are now ads in the middle of a level!
This game isn’t worth being forced to watch an ad every 30 seconds. And definitely not worth paying for.

Ad salesman
Idk who’s going around saying no ads but this game exists for ads exclusively
Actively Promotes Casino/Gambling Apps
I don’t have an addiction to gambling or betting, but the ads on TV nonstop about it have annoyed me so much, so when I kept getting ads for a casino game, instantly uninstalled. It’s a fun game but shame they take money from shady companies that prey on people like that.
Worst scam ever!!
As a game maker and software engineer, I can tell you that this game is maliciously made only to get you to fork out money for upgrades.
After attempting to beat a level for over a month, I’d gotten the boss down to about 3% life left on a consistent basis. I paid for an upgrade, due to my suspicions, and then could only get the boss down to about 25%.
Save yourself the irritation and do not download any games made by this company!!!

It sucks
Not as advertised
Don’t do it !
This a a game of commercials…it sucks !
Another terrible game, full of fake reviews, and using fake ads to lure you into playing.
It doesn’t matter if you pay to remove their barrage of ads, they’ll lock you out of playing with “energy” so you’re forced to, you guessed it, watch more ads.
Privacy anyone?
I would not agree to their privacy terms and uninstalled this spyware app
Ads ads and ads
The firts 2 hrs of playing no ads … after you will be spend mor time on ads than the game
Lazy, terrible game
Boring, repetitive, ad-filled game that’s horribly designed by the most lazy, cash-grabbing game devs I could imagine. Each level is completely unbalanced, some have no range, some no fire rate, and the numbers are a flat lie- +300 range has the exact same effect as +10k range, for example. Lazy, terrible game.
Have ads
If the game said no ads why is it in a ad
Ads
Paid the money for no ads and I still get ads
Garbage
Forced ads after EVERY SINGLE LEVEL. The developers are blatantly botting their game with 5 star reviews, this is against apples and terms of service. Reported.
Not like the ad
The game is still fun, to some degree. But it is not like the ad.
The preview images are nothing like the actual game
It’s an entirely different game from what the ads or screenshots show.
Paid to remove Ads, still had to watch ads

Don’t believe the fake reviews
Can’t believe the fake reviews that say no ads. The game is fun and has potential, but the ads they force at the end of the round are sometimes longer than the game. It’s too much and kills the game.
Actually ADs and deceptive no ads sales
So actually, the game does have ads, and in order to remove them, you can purchase a no ads: but it doesn’t actually remove the ads just the pop-up banner. Not worth it.
Scam
Dev uses npc’s in events to push spending. Don’t waste your money here. If that’s not enough the endless barrage of ads should be.
Trash add farm
Energy stats, ads every level, ptw
Another fake game
The ads for this title are completely fake. The actual game is repetitive with no real challenge or progression. It also runs off a very slow recharge energy system which is fine because you’ll be brain dead after a few plays.
Boring…No Skill…too many ads
This is a boring game - just a long slog. No skill either. Add after every level. Don’t bother with this one.
It’s advertised as having no ads
But that’s a lie. It has forced ads, banner ads and reward ads.
Too slow
Takes too long to level up
Energy
You get like, a single energy back for every hour of waiting. So you get 35 seconds of gameplay after waiting an hour. It’s a fun game, but it’s genuinely just a cash grab to get sales for people who dont want to wait 48 hours to play for more than 5 minutes
Absolutely sinister ad engine
This game is literally one of the most manipulative and terrible ad engines I’ve ever seen. They blatantly lie about this game being “ad free” and then proceed to put even PLAYING THE GAME behind an ad wall. And then a PAY WALL. And the absolute kicker is they have a purchase you can make on the app that doesn’t even work. You can try to pay 7 dollars for “no ads” and still get ads. It’s absolute robbery and in my opinion should be removed from the App Store for false advertising. If engines like this are allowed to exist we will pretty much never seen genuinely good mobile games.
ADS
Was great to play til you started making the ads longer and adding MORE ADS!!! Deleting it now because YOU CANT FIX IT!!!!
Ads farm, not a game!
It’s not a bad game that turned into ads farm. Mind you that the ads don’t even work most of the time and tells you ads not ready. Lesson learned, find a reputable gaming company not ads farms company.
False Advertising
The game plays nothing like the preview
Slow game. No ads at first. Then comes the ads. You run out of energy and must wait to play. OR PAY
Run outta energy. Money grabber.
not the game that‘s advertised
another one of those games that completely lies not only in their ads but their “game previews”. you also get forced ads after every level so they can try and shove the “no ads” down your throat. just another one of those money hungry trash games
What?
I don’t get it.
Hacked my phone
I payed $10
For no ads and the app still gave me ads and the app title said “get scammed bud” dont get this stupid app. I would rate it 0 stars if i could
