Community Insight:
Well game is too fun and we cant stop.
Fun battle ship like play with upgrades.
This game is designed to keep you guessing. It is challenging.
Awesome game. We would like to see the next game.
Play this game this is a really good strategy game its so fun and challenging this game is really cool.
Its a good Game, we dont quite have it figured out, yet find it somewhat addictive.
Good battleship style time killer.
Tight little game to pass the time.
Its like battleship, BUT ON LAND.
This game is really fun, like battlefield but on land.
This is the best game Ive played in a long time.
Great take on traditional Battleship board game.
This game is great, you dont need to pay to have fun, its a difficult game and it also is very suspenseful and the music jsut adds to the suspense, overall a great game.
Games is entertaining and without a lot of complexity.
Game seems to be setup to be overwhelmingly difficult to get you to pay $$$. Needs some tweaking and alternative tasks besides an RNG spin.
Love that it has limited amount of adds, not everything is about money. We need to go back to basics and make great free apps for the fun of it. We will definitely donate some bucks.
Good strategy gaming. Its all about your decisions instead of the game controlling you. We just wish there were different scenarios to what you are attacking. Either way great game.
Fun game, reminds us battleship and minesweeper.
Enjoy playing this game, like the simplicity of it but yet there is strategy.
This game plays like the battle ship game and involves strategy and luck. Im not sure if your playing against an O2 breather or a programmed bot. One battle Im certain you are and we think its stupid and a waste of time because it seems impossible to survive. Pre-battle description briefs you to be sharp cause your intel warns they have all your fighting positions registered for direct hits. When the battle starts your chances of making hits are a WAG and luck where each incoming will always score direct hits on your positions. How could this be fair and fun IDK? After having our rear waste port kicked in a few times we chose to stay away from this suicide. However most of the other battles seem much more fair and fun to play. One important item is the special weapons we.e. Radar, air support, multi-shot cannon, random shot artillery and rockets, which are available to you but theres very little instruction how to properly deploy and use them. This was frustrating and took us some time to figure it all out. Something that annoys us during game play was the prologue before each battle and interruption during the battle with senseless banter. We dont believe that would be appealing to anyone, 9yrs or older and recommend its exclusion. The game otherwise is fun to play however, it comes with grave warning of consequences. Please be advised, previous game play has shown consistent results with many players forming an addiction with explosive results! INCOMING.
Awesome game and its not a money grab.
Just getting in our car and, trying to race.
A well built artillery game, similar to battleship but with crazy powers. Its a tough lil game but we literally just beat the campaign, great ending by the way, actually caught us off guard, loved it! We saw no paywalls, just hard strategy at work and you can beat it without paying but we did in the end simply to support the dev. Its been a long time since there was a fun no paywall mobile game that was actually beatable or enjoyable to beat. 5/5 we recommend it as a fun game and time burner.
We like that the game is not greedy, good time killer.
Great game, just what we were looking for in a artillery type game with great upgrade weapons to choose from.
Very simplistic easy to use functions and at times very challenging.
We are a Army Veteran, was a Fire Direction Chief. We love this, very simple but good gameplay. We love the way it has tied in the different fire plans and munitions. Outstanding.
Sirve mucho para matar el tiempo libre.
Nice land based Battleship conversion. Fun, simple and addictive.
It's a simple game for people that like battleship but land based. It's fun to kill the time, makes you think where the next shot should be placed.
Fun to play, not to hard to advance. Don't get the dialogue or its purpose, but the game is otherwise well done.
Fun to play not a bad time burner.
This game is easy to learn and is a fun way to pass the time we've been playing now for Agee hours and it is challenging and just great must get.
Interesting take on battleship theme game..very fun.
Very addicting. Remember the red circle around your missed shot means the enemy is near.
Good game…. Try it out if you like battleship.
This game is addictive hard to put down.
Fun game with an old school battleship feel.
We like this game. It brings you back to the old days of board games. Good job.
Simple yet creative. Would be cool if it was online but no one would probably play it anyway. And pvp against a bot would just be playing the computer do its a lose lose. Still fun though.
Great game. Like a land based battleship.
We don't play many games, but this is excellent. Game play, weapons and tactics are realistic. If you are looking for a great game where you don't have to spend money, this is perfect.
Interesting take on the Battleship formula, and the fact that the abilities aren't consumables made our day.
We enjoy the aspects of each unit Mortar=Airstrikes and so on, its rough in the beginning with your currency, but it gets better.
Love the strategy and race against time.
Fun little game graphics aint the best but still fun to pass the time.
If you love artillery, then this game is absolutely the best thing you can find on the iPhone/IPad.
Nice game!! Easy to learn and play.
Good iPad display and challenging to stay ahead of computer opponent. No extra $$ required yet enticing to spend to get to the next level. Id rather earn our way through.
Steep learning curve to figure things out. Overall though, its a good time waster.
