What Makes Final Fortress – Idle Survival Stand Out
Final Fortress – Idle Survival

FINAL FORTRESS – IDLE SURVIVAL
The Ultimate end-of-the-world idle clicker, just got better. Survive the new Action Idle upgrade, with waves of zombies and Boss Mutants to defend against. Alley Labs presents the first Idle-Action Game.
THE END
Somehow you survived. Now It’s time to rebuild and defend humanity against the waves of zombies. Tap into your survival instincts. Grow your fortress community, gather resources, rescue survivors and rebuild from the aftermath of the viral outbreak.
GROW AND DEFEND YOUR Z FORTRESS
GAS is the new currency. Collect survivors, tap to make GAS, and use your resources to build a variety of rooms each dedicated to a unique survival task. Grow food, generate power, and build your fortress from the blueprints you tap into along the way. Arm your tower, and protect against the zombie waves and mutated bosses.
RECLAIM HUMANITY
Look for survivors amongst the wastelands, to grow your ranks and community. Scout for stray clans to keep your people alive and thriving. Don’t be afraid to move, the more survivors you find, the more you prosper in your next fortress.

Community Insight:
Hi we play this game for only 10 minutes ,but after we get out of it , it's starting crash and had a lag and our score , we've got the floor with 44 million oil cans but its all gone we only had a floor 2 and we remove this game because its starting lag , in the end we don't want to make this game too bad no no no we only want to enjoy games and we just want this community to update this game, we hope that , see ya , byeeee.
Great game but hasnt been updated on over a year. The devs seem to have abandoned this nice little idle clicker. Such a shame.
We tried to purchase the starter pack but didnt receive the pack so we thought maybe it didnt go through like it should, we tried multiple times and nothing. So we used the contact button and sent them an email about it, several hours later still no pack and the funds came out of our account so we messaged again. Still no pack, no response and no refund!!! We like the game and want to continue playing but not if its just going to take our money and not give us the pack we purchased and the app developers dont do anything about it!!!!! Update: we have been denied a refund from Apple for this issue and still nothing from the developer!! Update 2/21/23 still crickets!! And no help from Apple!! Guess next action is report for fraud/scam including Apple since they dont want to address it either.
Dont play this game we tried to buy the starter pack never got it they took our money anyways. We even messaged them and no response.
… And then the game finally takes off. Ive practically maxed everything and kill it in the challenges. Use the Collect Survivors without Starting Over and youll just keep rising.
We have been playing the game for a long time and enjoyed it. But your Santa Slay challenge is crashing when you make it to the last level and the last tank is about to be beaten. We have tried since last night and it crashes over and over. This is bad for a timed challenge, when you basically cant beat it.
Bought the $4.99 starter pack almost as soon as we installed the game, but we only received the diamonds. No chests or anything. Ive tried to contact someone about it but Ive received nothing so far. Ill change our rating when our issue is resolved. If it ever get resolved.
We play a lot of idle games… More than is good for us. Most hold our attention for a day or two max. This one has had us for a few weeks now. We think about it when we wake up. It is the first app we downloaded when replacing our phone. Good job.
This game is addictive and has a lot of interesting features, but it needs some bug fixes, we have been crashing extremely frequently as of late.
Crashes a lot actually. Its a nice little idle game when it works.
Logged on and got 2 chests and Got the pretty rare golden pistol and shortly after our game crashed and and reopened it to having the chests again and didnt get the golden pistol and we no longer had it.
Has potential except for all the frequent crashes.
This is absolutely the most unstable game we have ever played on any device going back to NES. It will crash 7-9 times every time you open it.
Every time we get the second room our game just crashes and we have to restart. Its a good game for what little we get to play but we would prefer to be able to progress a little farther.
The app stopped working completely. We cant even open the game.
Simply put, we start the game and instantly crashes.
We will change our rating to 5 stars when they fix our issue. Was loving this game but then we got to lvl 48 and was pretty far along and now our game just loads up and then crashes over and over. We tried to reinstall and it found our saved game but when we chose it same thing. We tried to submit a ticket but it warns us that the certificate has expired please respond to us and help us get our game back.
We bought the starter pack and got the diamonds, but didnt get any of the chests. Its a cool enough game so Ill still play it, but will never give them another penny. Note: Ill update to 5 stars if we get our chests.
We can not even go 15 seconds without it crashing!If there is no update we wont be able to play.
We like the game but after 10 min he give us crash we said ok im back to game but when we open up he give us another crash and crash and crash so mony crash.
The game isn't letting us watch ads to get the rewards anymore. We're also lucky if it can find ads for the YOLO body or lucky spin.
Downloaded the game, liked it, so we bought a pack. Shortly after the game would crash on launch. Reinstalled the game, no issues until we loaded our cloud synced save. Instantly crashes every time when we use that save. Reinstalled again, now theres no option to sync with our previous profile. Lost the pack. Emailed customer service yesterday, no response. Giving it another day then contacting iTunes. Update. Sent another email and waited another two days. No response. Requested and received refund through Apple.
Idea: add a giant zombie with big hp that comes To your base every 10 minutes pls we rated 5 stars cuz your game is great.
Im pretty far along but since yesterday we cannot play he game. It loads and the kicks us out… Please advise how we can fix this or if it is a known issue.
You play one, you played them all, they are all the same. But this one for some reason…just sticks with us.. We think it may be the zombie charm it brings. We love the zombies and we actually like the zombie battles. We don't really stick with idle clickers because we get bored real quick with just clicking.. But we really like building our floors and upgrading our floors.. We like that zombies come around and you tap them to make them go away. Really cool idle clicker game.
We've been enjoying this game quite a bit, but as mentioned before by someone else it's needs a buy 1, 5, 10 and max or something along those lines. Secondly, the game has totally and completely stopped working for us today. Loads up, cures cancer, and then the app crashes. IPhone 6 Plus.
This game really needs a x1,x10,x100, and max buy buttons in the management menu. Getting to higher levels is getting really annoying when we got to tap 10,000+ times after we move buildings. If it's not in the next update we will delete.
It has been a good game us and our wife play but now it wont even open up on our phone.
Would have been 5 stars from us until we got lvl 500 in the battle section, literally nothing else to do, they said more waves are coming, but sadly its been over 4 months.
Crashes a lot. Not un-playable but makes it less enjoyable.Spending survivors on x3 profit is not permanent.The 6 day friend boost just randomly vanishes after a few hours. Not sure if blue prints are only for current fortress and or if you lose them if you move? Not sure if weapons have a distance? We think so? More descriptions would be helpful.
So it is your typical idle game, with a fortress defense mini game. The mini game is the most frustration part of the game since you get stuck basically every other wave. The idle part is fine but the survivors you get from resetting do not benefit your dps in the mini game and that just seems like a mistake. If they make it a bit easier to progress we. The mini game we would rate it higher.
When we did that glitch every time you got to your 10th through 15th upgrade it would give you like 6000 diamonds so we would constantly have above 50,000 diamonds and just constantly get our gas multiplier up to 600 times or keep collecting the Survivors without having to restart so yeah you probably want to fix that.
It's really loud, and you can't turn off the incredibly loud sound effects which is bad if you want to listen to your own music.
We really enjoyed the game. Its fun to play and we can leave it and come back but lately when we watch ads the screen goes black and we have to leave the game then come back. We dont lose any of the gems, blueprints or fuel but it makes it hard to play. Wish you would fix that. Then we would rate the game a 5 star. Well dropping another star as we were saying earlier the game was fun. After a bit we quit having trouble with the ads but now it boots us out of the game and we cant play at all.
We hate trying to watch ads because they almost broke our phone. Otherwise it is a good game. We also like these types of games.
Seems to be auto closing when loading.
We paid 4 dollars to get stacked and then the game crashed and took it all away from us and took our money… Smh, this game is garbage.
Game shuts down for no reason. The game itself is pretty good but now on our 3rd restart because when we get far into it, suddenly the game wont start at all. Have to delete and re-download and start all over to play. Game tells us we have no connection to connect to Game Center to save progress. Frustrating.
It was a pretty good game but now every time we open the app it crashes.
We haven't had the ad issues others have mentioned. The game runs fine and is a great little time waster. We've enjoyed it and been playing a few months now.
We remember first getting this and ads would often crash whenever we watched them and the battles would constantly do the same, back tracking us to prior progress we had before.
We actually enjoy this game way more than we expected to. It had a simple, yet intriguing system. We have wasted countless hours on this. :).
Keep going. Waiting for more zombies in battle round woohoo.
New features make it fun, while the game itself is engaging and entertaining.
The game creator saw our reviews and updated his game to fix it. This is a good idle game with the fun mini game of fighting zombies.
Much fun very fun fun zombies wow.
Game is fun, doesn't require a lot to play and upgrade. However, there's an issue when you watch an ad for bonuses that the ad will freeze into a black screen. Would be 5 star otherwise. Edit: our name is not minigames. Edit 2: new update broke the game, says download update. AppStore says open, app itself says nope. Edit 3: fixed stability issue, now back to one of our favorite idle games.
Fun little idle game, does have some stability issues, but if you like idle time waster games this one is worth downloading. Now, we haven't spent money, and we don't know about the issues there, but just playing for free, we think it's fun.
This game is fun in the early stages of the game. Once you unlock all the rooms in the game there isn't really much to do anymore other than killing zombies. There are only 4 active abilities from what we've played. There are a ton of weapons and passives so that's a plus. The devs responded quickly when the game broke. Just waiting on more content.
It is a great way to waste time. You don't have to spend any money to play and advance. Joy to play.
