Community Insight:
As soon as we got it we started getting addicted to it and we played every day.
The game is laggy but it is a great game we like the skins and the faces.
We absolutely love this game! We got it two days ago and havent been able to put it down! Our only complaint is as we get bigger and bigger we tend to run into more objects. Although we love that we can break into the walls to get to places faster we hate when the objects stay in our circle and slow us down. It gets super glitchy too. Other than that we love this game and recommend it.
Its a amazon game but some players are hackers Like one time we were a t three hundred and they were at a hundred and one sec later there at four hundred.
This game is so good. We downloaded it and got addicted to it. 5 STARS all the way.
This is game is fun and too ez. We sometimes kill the all of the players and win 9 games. This is fun.
We mean there is a lot of these we.o games, thats the problem. But hey, they are fun and you guys have had really good ideas! Ps, Im not saying you have to shut down any of these apps! They are really just fine! -love your furry friend, mandarin.
Popular Wars is a fun game to play when bored, however it also gets boring after a while if you only play this game, but overall its just another really good way to spend time when you got nothing else to do. Im kind of upset that its a fake multiplayer, though its still fun, even if youre competing against a computer. Apart from this, and the fact that its sometimes very slow, it is a really fun game to play! We mean how can a game where you run around and collect little pellet peeps and make them follow you so you can form an angry (or Happy, depending what face you put for an avatar) mob and eliminate other mobs of pellet peeps not be a really fun distraction/arcade game??? Theres a reason why this game is so Popular (no pun intended) and thats because its awesome.
This game is so much fun and very addicting but we do wish there were more players and longer time and the same pace no matter what but we really do think its a really fun game.
This is our favorite app in our life.
So when we play after we get more and more and more people we notice we get slower and slower and we hate that why cant we keep the normal pace as we had before. But thats all we have to say, either way we give this game 5 stars because we are now addicted to this game.
Good game to pass the time when you are bored. Only if there was a small button to control the movement rather than moving the finger all over the screen.
We recommend this game for everyone that wants to feel free and popular.
Ok so like one of our best friends pmo this game bro we were like bro this is the best game ever.
We dont care about the ads, this is a fun game!! Just add more areas to collect people and Ill be good. Our son compared it to being a youtuber and collecting followers. Great comparison to be honest.
We love this game so much, however, when we try to change the look of our character or change the mode, we cant press the back button. Its not a lag, it really doesnt work.
Similar to the .io games which we like. They need to work out the lag though.
The game is tooooo laggy and doesnt allow us to play Plz fix this.
We just played 4 rounds and found it quite glitchy. We think there is room for improvement, but each time we changed our skin, we had to get out of the app and get back in. Otherwise, we think the game is great, and other reviews are wrong.
We think it is such a great game and we are addicted to it, but it copies to many other games, it has to have some originality.
We got to legend rank and we noticed that we could still earn stars to rank up. We thought it was an easter egg, but we soon realized the game was not finished. We had the same icon as legend rank but it did not have a title. Besides that, its an interesting game.
This game is amazing but there is way to many adds. We just get annoyed on how many adds there are. But overall a very good game.
It is fun but really glitchy at the end of each game and we wish that it was longer than two minutes.
We love the game but it gets boring after just playing one map, could there be levels and maps.
Our daughter and we enjoy playing this game. We wish there were more maps. Also, we have played the game for several days in a row but we cant earn the characters for playing 2 and 7 consecutive days.
Okay, first off, real people please? We swear all there is are bots, cause a lot of people download the game and make bot accounts. And please, we want our account back. We were World star rank. 17 wins. We had a lot of skins and coins. We has 48 snowmen (or 38.) Please, we came home, logged on. And our account was gone. Our weeks of work. Please.
Great game. Sort of addictive as well. However theres still a lot of potential left. Online gaming, more maps, more options and more of everything to be honest. For example we got more than a thousand coins but theres nothing to spend them on. We hope you guys have major upgrades coming up soon. Would rate it 4 stars. Could easily be 5.
1) multi player with those nearby 2) tell us how many ppl the other have so you dont get eaten 3) more challenges we like that it has music. Its brand new so we know changes will come. We have hope for this game.
Ive been playing this game for a week straight and it wont give us the skins for playing two days straight or 7 days straight. FIX THIS BUG.
Its good but one thing. On the free spins 80% of the time it shows u a add anyways.
Something that we see with most games is that they congratulate you even tho you didnt well but this game we says DEFEATED!! When your literally in 2nd place like say do better next time or something like that people want to play this game again and have hope they can do better not doubt themselves.
Game is ok but the map is way too large. Youre unable to see more of the map or move faster as you grow so when round is close to over…youre too far from anybody to do any good. Not bad but needs some work.
Its a really fun game and we love playing it. There are just too many ads and it makes our phone heat up. Also its boring because youre not going against other players youre going against robot generated ones which we think makes it less entertaining.
Its a pretty good game we like it the only problem we have with this game and another one similar to this one is that it lags a lot and its pretty annoying but other then that the game is pretty fun to play.
The game does what it suppose to do and its fun but the glitch at the end of each round really needs some work.
Wish there were more maps and opportunities to play with people you know or at-least compare scores w other players.
We loved this game so much at first. But now, we think Iv gotten everything out of it as we can. There are no highest scores to compare with others. And we have no idea if Im actually playing against real people. So much potential.. Just needs work.
Great Game the few seconds theres not an ad.
All we see is another persons score going up a lot… And like ALOT, and when we reach to 170 people, the other person goes to 300 people or 200 people, so flipin stupid.
This game is fun we tried to get another map it said win 5 games in normal mode we switched to normal mode and won 4times then we won again and should have gotten the map no matter how many times we win it says Ive won 4times. SUPER ANNOYING.
You need to add more maps to it.
Fun game but waaaay too glitchy.
This game is honestly really laggy and when Im getting chased we always lose because we cant move smoothly. We also hate the fact it has a time limit its not much fun when you constantly have to start a new game every two minutes. :(.
The more people you collect the more lag the game has.
Game is fun but kind of glitchy and slow. Our biggest issue is that it makes our phone get super hot to the point we have to leave it for a few minutes turned off. Only does it with this app not sure if Im the only one. Overall speed the game up and make it smoother please :).
Overall, its a pretty good game. Our only problem is that every now and then, an ad will pop up while Im in the middle of a match. We were in first place with a minute left, the ad popped up, and when it finished we were in last and down about 50 people… When that changes let us know.
This game is fun but its so glitchy!!! So dman annoying. By the end seconds it keeps getting sooooooo stucky. Hate it.
We played this game a couple times and after a while we dont think this game has a good impact on people. Want to know what it feels like to be popular-well heres ur chance this quote is not right its not appropriate we dont like it.
Im all for competition but spending nearly 2 minutes only to have all of our work removed in a second. This game will be removed from our phone as soon as this review posts. Allowing other players to permanently kill others and remove all their points makes this game not worth playing. Do better.
Our daughter-7 was playing this game on our phone. Ad popped up showing girls in shorty shorts shaking their butts- not appropriate. Then another ad showed game characters kissing beside a bed-female/male, male/male, female/female. Showed game had 17+ rating. Ads should be age appropriate to game being played.
