Worthless
First off they don’t give you enough ammo to finish the level and that’s the 1st level you watch 10 minutes of adds to every 2 minutes of gameplay and you can’t get out of the adds you’re stuck in them for 3 + minutes then 20 seconds off gameplay because you don’t have near enough ammo to complete unless you want to spend $20 on ammo which won’t last one level. This is nothing more than a money grab with just ok gameplay. Why do you people ruin these games with pure greed and adds. 🤷🏻‍♂️lame.

Don’t do it
It started out great then it turned out to be a money pit. Throw money into it just to stay in the game with the people at the bottom of the game. My arsenal was so loaded up then I started going backwards in damage with tanks and ships and aircraft. I wrote a trouble ticket and spoke with customer support and they flat out told me it doesn’t matter how much money you spend on the game they try to keep every on on the same power for the level your playing on so everyone is equal. I still have the email. From that day forward I may play once a month just to keep my it active. I had my own team and everything.
★★★★ regnar11b 6/20/2026 v500241
Started good now sucks!
Started off having a blast playing this game a ton, was super fun then hitting level 38, I was up to finishing 97% of the level and making sure I achieved all of the challenges before moving on to the next level, played one level prior and coming back to level 38, I couldn’t even get 1%, would use everything and couldn’t even kill 1 enemy. Figure something geeked out and emailed the company they simple stated that it’s supposed to do that to make it more challenging. That was a few months ago and still only able to kill 2 enemies now… I play daily mostly for the clan fights but the normal game play sucks now.
★★★★ MrKirkPowers 6/20/2026 v500241
Money Pit
The game is incredibly fun, but the more you advance the more money you need to spend to pass the increasingly hard levels. It is truly impossible to pass certain levels if you are strictly playing for free. I really enjoyed playing, but quit after playing one level over a hundred times and no end in sight. Now if I wanted to spend $100 then there would be no issue getting past just that one level. The next level will be designed to take another $100 or more to pass it. I wish I could get a refund for the money I did spend. It is a money trap and requires so many micro transactions to advance. Save your money and your time.
★★★★ Kdhander 6/15/2026 v500241
Waste of time
Another game app that at first seems really great, but then draws you in and when getting to a certain level, makes it so difficult to succeed so you have to watch multiple ads to gain more points to get more destructive weapons. Don’t waste your time.
★★★★ johnthepilotguy 6/14/2026 v500241
Don’t waste your time
Another game, looks cool, but when you have to do missions a dozen times to get past them, it sucks.
★★★★ Ajamih24 6/10/2026 v500241
Pay to win
This game is literally a pay to win. They push so hard so you can pay real money to go to the next mission not getting a penny outta me.
★★★★ ChrissyPu 6/4/2026 v500241
Don’t waste your time
Impossible to progress in this game without spending money. Do not waste your time with this obvious money grab.
★★★★ DerekFerreal 6/4/2026 v500241
Just a microtransaction farmer
It doesn’t matter if you spend money on the game, it’s designed to not be beatable without dozens of attempts. I upgraded my drone more than 40 times across all weapons between round 2 and 3 and it was like I did nothing. The level immediately scales to your upgrades so you need to make a purchase to pass any level past 5. Just a scam as evidenced by the paid reviews that just specifically address the valid complaints.
★★★★ lameness app 6/3/2026 v500241
1 minute Kalshi ads is too much
I can handle 30 second ads, I just deleted an otherwise fun game since I can’t deal with 1 minute ads. Bummer
★★★★ Amir_Chaker 5/30/2026 v500241
Black & White
A challenging and realistic game with engaging mission-based gameplay. I really enjoyed the graphics and the smooth transitions between levels.
That said, there are two aspects that could be improved. First, purchasing additional items feels quite expensive, which can limit the overall experience. Second, I’m not convinced by the decision to make the game almost entirely grey. Adding more colors to elements such as missiles, soldiers, explosions, and other visual effects would make the game feel more dynamic and immersive.
With a richer color palette and more action-oriented visual effects, the game could evolve from being just a war game into a much more exciting action experience.
★★★★ dadof4girls1boy 5/30/2026 v500241
Ya it Rocks, until it’s a rip off
A. The price of the VIP program. $416/year is a bit steep, no?
B. I’m on level 64. It’s about 100 times more difficult than level 63. Unplayable.

Scam game
Terrible game, I maxed out all guns and couldn’t pass level 3, I can’t shoot enough fast enough
★★★★ Stab-a-nigga-jones 5/26/2026 v500234
Good game
It really sucks that I cant play past the ten energy charges. Maybe you guy’s can add more energy and make maybe another mode that drains more energy but rewards more? To balance the energy with whatever it was intended for…
★★★★ Think Tank Hank 5/26/2026 v500234
Crashes - Support doesn’t care and ads run 2min
Starting with level 35+ certain helicopters trigger crashes. Happens on all my iOS devices. You lose the credit for the game and don’t get any money. Support was no help - said they’re looking into it but no real updates. Won’t reimburse for lost money I earned.( Yes, I’ve restarted, reinstalled)
Also, some of the ads go on for 2 minutes. Poor quality control on that end.
I might keep playing, though.
★★★★ PoolGuy777 5/24/2026 v500234
Pure pay to win, unfair RNG
Do not download this game. The first few levels are easy and earn decent credits, once you hit level 6 and 7 the credits significantly slow down because you’re stuck on a level that you can’t logically beat unless you watch their ad videos for gold and credits. The more you progress into the level you’re stuck at and upgrade the weapons, the less credits the previous missions give you. I’m stuck on a mission where I was getting further with the less upgrades than with the upgrades. The quicker you advance in the mission, the more damage the enemies do. Do not download or spend any money on this game. Predatory loot system and broken mechanics to favor the bots. Terrible game. Some of the worst RNG and hit marker detection.
★★★★ Dugalis 5/23/2026 v500234
Fraud
This game will charge you monthly even if you never play it. Happened to me. Was a pain to get refunded. Do not download!
★★★★ adrew12 5/22/2026 v500234
Take away your strength after paying for it
I’ve noticed when you spend in game $ to level up your weapons, they initially go up but will go back down, randomly. Feels like they’re shaving off to get you to spend more $. After a few times they eventually stay at the new level.
★★★★ this__guy__ 5/22/2026 v500234
Pay for Play
Another terrible app full of ads that pushes you to pay so you can complete a single level. Reviewed some of the reviews, clearly they have bots and employees leaving the reviews.
★★★★ Jordanjhh 5/14/2026 v500234
needs more ammo
There needs to be stuff where you can buy ammo or stuff like certain stuff of ammo. It’s so stupid that you have to buy money to get upgrade so like on your Gatling gun.
★★★★ Purchased a version customer 5/13/2026 v500234
TOO LITTLE OF EVERYTHING
Too little/too few of all ammo thats does too little damage. Controls offer too little stability ( drone or not). Too little offered as power ups that increase totals too little. Even watching an ad offers too little rewards.since the game expects you to shell out money I would say even the, it would give VERY little.
★★★★ Cheesecake game 5/12/2026 v500234

★★★★ HCHammer 5/5/2026 v500234
Advertisers bring down the game
There are opportunities to get coins and gold. This requires you to view a stupid add. For some reason, every time I go to earn my cash and gold, I get an error message stating something about there not being any adds available. That’s not MY fault. Get more advertisers. Don’t place a reward that you can’t receive.
BAIT AND SWITCH!!
★★★★ Yashibaba 5/5/2026 v500234
Horrible pay wall and spam
Game spams you with 5 ads per minute and have to pay for weapons, had to delete this game, feels like a bait and switch scam.

Мда думала хорошая игра прикольная оказалась нет.

Advertising piece of she…
Ads every 10 seconds. Are you serious? I don’t think the reviews are real-I’ve never encountered such greedy game developers before.

Glitchy, unsupported
It’s buggy, only way to get ahead once you get to about the 24th round is to spend a ton of money. No ads but only because they don’t care enough to generate advertisers any more, they rely on people ponying up the ca$h.

Pay to play
If you don’t watch ads or pay this game takes forever to level up guns get new superweapons. Takes days to beat missions. Fun game but def pay to play

Не стабильная работа

★★★★★ My G Spot 4/21/2026 v500234
Not fair
Even with purchasing additional ammunition and equipment it’s impossible to get past level 13. I’ve maxed out every possible weapon I can have and still can’t get past 52% of level 13.
