Please update the game please to this IOS version so we can play this game this game is so awesome.


US-30 tanks 5 choppers Russia- 5 missile launchers 30 tanks 25% hp and attack upgrade 100% unit cool down repeater 30-40% off on cost GOOD LUCK! PS Find a iPod touch or old iPhone itll fix the new iOS problem of not being able to play. Btw what happened to the assault? That was the perfect war scenario either way if you still have the game in the US on iPod or whatever pre iOS 11 keep the Apple ID off and its usable.


Update it so we can download it we miss flash games and this was one of our favorite games please god.

We love this game so much and we wish u guys would bring it back we miss it so much it was our favorite game.


We love this game we were a big fan of it but what Ive been trying to find it for a couple years now that we found it and it says we cant download it because we have a updated version of our phone but the game is too old please update it.


The game is cool but can you update it to iOS 11 so we can play again.


Can you please update game to iOS 11.0 m.


We were bored and just looking for a free game this came up. 5 hours straight fun if you like war games try this.


Let's start off with the fact that if you press a button multiple times it may charge you more. Also, yes, it is almost exactly like Shadez. HOWEVER, this is basically saying that a mobile port of a game is copied. There is NO mobile Shadez, meaning this is basically a mobile port.


This app is good but we updated and lost all upgrades and we expect it all to be returned even stuff we bought.


Awesome game we played hours of it and want to enjoy it again ill even buy it if you update it.


It has a decent variety of units but one that we really want added into the game is a sniper. It would have long rand where the infantry can't reach when the sniper is at max range. It would have low health and do a 1 shot kill to all infantry but very little damage to vehicles. This end our review. Please make our wish come true.


We just got the update, and now all our progress had been deleted. If you haven't updated yet DON'T. Please fix this.


We cant play this epic game pls fix.


We love this game and now we can play please update this.


We got the game because we loves shades and when we were playing it the training part of the game was all zoomed in and the part with the map that you select training with is zoomed in to so we can't select all the things that we need to and we can't tap on any of the buttons in the main game so we can't go back to the main menu. We are on an iPad Air nso its find of weard that everyone else isn't having this problem and we hope you can fix this soon cus we want to play this more verry badly! Everything was zoomed in even the hid wear you select troops from.


We're not able to play this game because some buttons that we have to push is not on our screen.


The new update made us loss all our stuff but we're still lvl 25 general.


It's fun. We also recommend playing battle eaxes.


The screen is cut off at the left! Please fix!!! :.(.


You know it may not be 3d but its still a awesome game.


Plz fix left and right side of screen being cut off on iPad mini… Can't read instructions on the screen. Thanks.


On iPads, the screen is cut off on the left side making playing this game very annoying. Please fix.


Anyways can you add drones please it would have so so so so cool and awesome but we rated four stars and if you add drones 1 more star would be added :) ok.


We think this is a great game but the edges of the screen are cut off on our iPad air. PLEASE FIX!!!!!!!! It's still playable but it's SOOOO annoying.


This game is really good. We got it yesterday and now we're addicted.


This is a lot like shadez however the game frontline black operations is exactly like shadez 1 with respect to the explosions.


This is a awesome military game.


It is exactly like shadez but somehow better.


It's a good game but they should make glory days for the iPod.


Optimized it for iphoen 5 fix it .. And by the way it's very cute game we'll give 5 stars when you fix it.


You totally copied Shadez: Black Operation. But anyways; it's a good game but we're stuck on legal 11. Play as USA we don't really care though Anymore.


The game is good we're stuck at the tutorial and we can't click the marine please update this bug.


It's not as good as the computer version but it still good. It has to have individual movement though but still pretty good.


This app stole all our money.we spent $1:99 on the elite pack and it didn't let us download the pack.instead it stole our $7:00 we had in our account.dont buy any packs.


This is a pretty cool game it's a lot like a game on the computer called.


We dont get enough gold unless we level up which makes it harder for us to battle online.


Can't even get past the tutorial.


But it would be cool if we had anti tank helicopters and also choose where we deploy, not just when and what.
