Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Id be nice if controller was supported.
We finished the game completely, but it was really time-consuming. We found a bug in the purchase section and we can get as much gold as we want. We've gotten 300,000 so far.
We played for days getting to level 8-9 ,then the game reset us to level 4. Game is good,but yall need to work out this issue.
So the games fine but a weird thing is we dont really like is when you die on a level you have to restart from the first level, even if youre on a boss.
Overall gameplay is fun. Continuing stages requires upgrades of gear, which can turn in to replaying the same stage for some time. The challenge and daily quests are good for advancing equipment and stats. Watching ads is required to even advance further into the game, or suffer replaying the same stage for weeks on end.
Most mobile games lie with their ads, are pay-to-win or ad filled slugfests but E2DR is different. It actually feels fun, not seeming to take you hostage to squeeze you for every penny. Its also fun and decently challenging.
Takes to long to get to the driving range.
Fun gameplay ruined by being designed around watching ads.
We love how it plays and just works and the style looks great and the fact that theres barely any ads but the few apps that are there are kind of long, but that is reasonable.
Usually we only write a review to give critique on an app that has a lot of flaws and let the developers know, however this game is just what Ive been looking for. We absolutely love the other earn to die games and beat the first one pretty fast. We found this on our recommendations and gave it a try. Its so good. The art has significantly improved, the opening is a great tutorial, the sound design is one of our favorite parts it just adds sm depth. And the difficulty is perfect. Games nowadays are easy and quick levels that are littered with ads and repetitive. This game doesnt have many ads, it is challenging, and switches things up. We havent beat it yet but we adore it.
Whose ever idea it was to mix this series with Mr. Autofire inspired gameplay is amazing! The mix of 2D shooting levels and the classic driving from the first 2 games hits a perfect balance to ensure neither gets stale.
Love the art style. Abilities are different from other games we used to see. Definitely worth downloading it.
Game is fun to play, and fairly challenging. It would put it over the top if there was a way to eliminate, or so, all the obsolete items that are acquired throughout the gameplay. Please look into making this a real feature, and this is easily a 5-star game.
We thought this would be another fun earn to die car adventure. To much walking around shooting and not enough driving.
We think if u use money for the car instead of metal it would make the game more bearable to play. Accidentally used all our metal on the car armor and tires now we need to wait so long for challenges that give almost no metal.
We like it and it needs more powerful items.
First off, love the game and have been very invested in it for the last month. With that said, there is a bug where the game is freezing in the middle of stages and even though we can start where we left off, we lose all progress for daily challenges up to that point.
We love this game so much it brings back so many memories with earn to die 2 and 1. We like how you can get out of the car and drive. Thats way its not too repetitive. This game is so good. Ive already shared this to three people.
Love the app! Very fun game. One power up idea we had was something similar to the fungus that you can collect but instead of health you get more points to level up within a run.
This game was super fun to play for the first couple months. The weekly challenges and the holiday extras were super fun and made attaining good gear easier. However, since getting to level 16, it has become stupid hard. And now getting any sort of gear that is better than our epic and legendary stuff is pretty much impossible since the Challenges scale with your current game level youre on. We used to be able to crush challenges on the max level up until now, and even trying to beat on the easiest setting is near impossible. We no longer have any interest in trying to get farther since the difficulty is insane and seems to scale exponentially.
Game is not progressable past world 10 unless you plan on spending money.
We loved the first two, unfortunately the in person part is super dependent and is less about the driving and more about grinding rooms instead of driving.
Great game. Would be better with game controller support.
Love the game itself, upgrades are pretty worthless in game as they do absolutely 0 damage. Ive never left a review on any app before but MY LORD, the ads in this game are absolutely ridiculous. You have to watch ads to basically play the game, 0 issue with that. The issue is that there is MULTIPLE ads that are 2-3 minutes long and completely ruin the entire game. Keep them at max 30 seconds and this game could be amazing.
This is a quality game there arent any ads unless you take one and it adds a great twist on the original game super recommended.
The games really good so far just started 2 hours ago lol Im loving it so much its definitely worth playing.
Ive been trying to beat the same level for months. All progress has stopped because they want you to pay real $ for upgrades. Every good game is a mix between difficulty and rewards but now its all difficult & no reward.
We got Skibidi fanum taxed on our gyatt, this game is sigma alpha wolf rizzler. The creators of the game had to mew non stop to make the perfect Skibidi game.
We thought the new mix of game mechanics like the rooms was fun, and definitely not bad! But not our style. Just wasnt what we were looking for. Not much like the original games, but we like the direction they are going and am excited if there ever is another.
Game was awesome and really is still a lot of fun. Im not sure what you did to challenge mode but its impossible now to beat. We get its suppose to be challenging but we havent beaten any even with just 1 challenge turned on in over a week where before we were full clearing it. We have all epic items and a few epic +1.
This game has been extremely difficult for beginning players and we have either got bad luck or the chests dont grant anything above uncommon. Not once have we got a rare item. The daily missions also are always unavailable and have like 3 day cooldowns and when they are available they are usually one hits and you are dead. ALSO THIS GAME IS BEGGING FOR YOU TO BUY IN GAME CONTENT, HOLY SHEET we CANT PLAY 5 MINUTES WITHOUT AN AD.
The game is fun, but it is clearly just a cash grab piggybacking off Remember Earn to die? Its predatory FOMO (fear of missing out) garbage that really tarnishes the legacy of the older games. The real shame is there is a good game here, but all the development time went into how to make the most money and not making an actually good experience.
We love this game and idea of the game very good developers.
Locking both modes content behind each other is seriously Fd up especially given the precipitous plateau of gear and the fact that you literally cant rely on perks given how random they are AND that at a certain point the levels are filled with like 6-8+ flying shooters and a ton of melees to the point you literally cant do enough damage fast enough regardless of weapon to even ATTEMPT to get out with your health above zero. Even gear perks are oft useless or meh and are locked again behind super rare high value versions you wont commonly be able to obtain. Driving is annoying too cause you rely on metal from missions(oft ridiculous demanding things you cant control like perk based kills or crits you have zero control over) to level the car up to go. Also annoying is that money and stuff doesnt reset when you drive so you can literally gain nothing by driving and random missed stuff becomes impossible to get to 100% the mission and get the gold keys you need badly locked behind 100%ing each drive mission.
Would be so much better with a controller.
We know this game is a spin off but if earn to die 3 is like this it better be free not a bad game but not like the classic style.
The game isnt easy and has a very much pay to win aspect but you can just grind to get around that. Also its a challenge to beat the higher lvls. Thing that gets us is that the in game money is useless. They have gold which is used to buy everything and then they have cash with is used for upgrades and nothing else. Cant buy anything we need with it and its more than we need for upgrades. Essentially its useless and accumulating faster than we can use it. Our rating as follows: 5 stars for the dual aspect and its fun -1 star for the paywall -1 star for the useless cash.
Fam this game is so sweet it done rebooted our whole personality we lost interest in sex, sunlight, vitamins everything. The developers need to put a price on it IMMEDIATELY so our broke spirit can finally be free we keep trying to delete it but our thumb be like nah, we staying here we dont buy paid apps, so thats literally our only escape route. Sometimes we play this game 45 hours straight like Im training for the Gaming Olympics our screen time report probably thinks we got kidnapped by the App Store.
We loved playing this game as a kid but after getting it again and seeing the way you have to find the car parts made it boring and hard.
Been playing earn to die games since middle school. Even extending to website like arcadeprehacks or the like. Ever since the whole flash ending thing.. We forgot this existed. Its been nice seeing old flash games or the series of, pop up here and there. Honestly a pretty good translation from the titles before. Still the same but with a nice twist of flavor on top. 5 stars for nostalgia. But also just because its actually also good. Do recommend trying it out. Edit after some more playtime(week or so)- Theres quite a bit to the game. The driving part is more of the same so far. But the on-foot aspect? Clothing,weapons,trickets, and modification to the powerups all affect gameplay. Power ups are also varying, some fun, some strategic. Bosses are unique, theres just about every time of enemy, flying, charging, humanoid and tech based, stationary. Its still, very fun.
Its nice to see you guys continue the game serious we spelt that wrong Any ways its been fun playing you guys games.
So its geeky but like their item, drill, is a reference to a old popular anime series, Gurren Lagann, the story is about a young driller boy named Simon who finds a mech (lagann) where its main weapons are drills!. <wildIk> Then they start fighting for humanitys freedom and need to live on the surface using their drill to pierce the enemies blocking their way, and thats what the item does in the game it gives your bullet a drill like shape allowing it to pierce the zombies hitting more zombies behind it letting you deal lots of damage if you have chain perks on too also the item looks like luganns drill. Anyways game play is good and smooth we like the controls and the main part of earn to day is also really good and feels like the old earn to die 2 controls.Anyways thats its. Ooo yea give gurren lagann a try its on Netflix or Hulu its really great.
So we really like this game. Have had it for over a year. Slowed down on playing it once gear went to legendary +1. The game needs a way to get equipment easier. And gold easier. A thought on the gold. You should have a bank where you can trade cash in for gold. Like $100,000 gold or something. Also car upgrade parts for equipment keys or something? And something for mods and character rations and posters. More events? More things for free players who wont or cant pay. And it would be cool if we could use our ps5 controller to play like some other games. Other than that we love the game. Ive gotten so many and played for a day to month then deleted. But like we said we have had this one for over a year. Ill play more if you can make improvements towards our suggestions. Ill even promote it. But if we dont see anything then Ill delete and demote/ impede it. Sorry not sorry.
3 minute adds are popping up and some of them freeze the game so you have to restart and lose one of you plays for the daily challenges.
Love what youve done with the games man rlly though something refreshing Im tired of seeing a battlepass in games that have zero to do with battle royal glad we can still enjoy at least these games.
Could you fix the issue where if you leave the app and go back to the game it starts to run at like 12 fps and its unbearable.
The game is fun but grinding for the materials for the car is sooooo annoying. Took us a week of playing to beat the first driving map, we love a game that takes time to beat but not games that arent story based. The upgrades are terrible, and we get wayyyyy more cash than Im able to use. They hardly ever give gold or steel and thats why Im giving it 2 stars.
Doesnt shove adds down your throat, has several features like recycling weapon upgrades for the exact money and blueprints you have invested, you can use in game currency to buy different currency in game, runs extremely smooth, only mobile game we have and we genuinely enjoy it.
All your games gave us our childhood!!! Especially Yurtu Dai 2 and Rodege and we VKS ask in 2 parts to make a large revelation and release new cars so.
