Community Insight:
People who don't like this game because its to hard just have skill issues.
At first glance, we thought this was just another spam click game, but we started playing and was immediately addicted to it. Its fast paced and very enjoyable. But there are five things that we would like to have added: 1) something that tells us what the stats are, 2) a bigger stage where all the enemies can fit (since the enemies are overrunning us a lot), 3) being able to customize the character with different weapons and stuff with different stats, and 4) having endless mode start easy and progressively get harder. Sorry if this is asking for to much, and that this is a long review, but we wanted to make suggestions to get this game from awesome to awesomer than awesome.
Love it its great and a fun game.
We honestly have nothing else to say its really fun and honestly for the first couple hours it was pretty difficult to learn but it was really fun and we recommend it to anyone who plays mobile games.
It is a fun exciting game but need more levels and make them a bit more challenging.
It's really simple and fun, the best characters can be unlocked very early on, and it doesn't spam you with ads. Our choice is for sure the Emperor, we do wish they had more characters or at least some ways to customize them a bit.
Super good game. Im blown away by well… Everything this game has to offer, good graphics, and a quick time killer for anyone who is bored. We totally recommend.
We LOVE this game!! Its an amazing way to pass time, but a big drawback is that you cant turn off the music/sound. We usually listen to a podcast on our phone while playing mobile games, so the sound is annoying :(.
Just downloaded the game it runs smoothly is challenging and fun.
Nice way to pass a few hours. A little more diversity would be nice (like magic or whatever) because the heroes are fairly similar. There are three types of heroes. Instant heroes, medium heroes, and slow heroes. Medium are the best for progression. Instant heroes are hard to play because you cant infinitely swipe, so you can be hit by enemies if you arent careful. Slow are crazy good for normals mobs but falls short against bosses. Buying more expensive heroes increases their specs and changes their visuals.
This is hands down one of the best mobile games Ive ever played. The best part? While we wouldnt say it is the best mobile game Ive ever played, its the best Ive played that takes full advantage of the fact that it is on mobile. The game is essentially a hectic fight as you swipe your character through boards of enemies, each one with he capacity to kill should you even lose focus for a second. Other mobile games are so great they get ported to computers and consoles. This one is so great it doesnt need a port.
Theres not many ads but they do pop up at the top of the screen.but the game is really fun.
We're loving the game but wish, if only locally, we could see our top score we've earned as each character. As many characters are far better than others, it doesn't make sense to compare them all on an even playing field.
It seems great! We feel like its one we could start to seriously enjoy. But please allow reverse controls. Or if you have an option to change it, please make it more accessible. Its just so disorientating to swipe towards enemies rather than wind up and shoot towards them more like a slingshot. Thats all we need! Otherwise, great game and concept.
We like this game, its fun and doesnt take much to understand or start which is important because of the craziness of life and always being on the go. The progression is fun but can be annoying at times, we like that its simple but not to easy of a game. One of the big things that we dont like about the game is that when dashing around with any troop better than warrior you jump off the edge of the map. This could be made on purpose and if so why? If you want people to purchase coins to get any better troops dont let them be easily defeated by something that doesnt make sense. And for this reason we think that the best character to use is the warrior because it just doesnt jump off the map for no reason. That being said we love this game, Ill keep playing it but we hope and recommend that you fix this issue.
Feels clunky or uncomfortable. The timing mechanisms kinda ruin what could be a lot of fun. If they took off those mechanics (such as forcing us to wait when entering a new stage before we can attack, or setting a time limit on our attacks), it would probably feel more comfortable and more immediate.
Theres a glitch that happens all the time where your character just walks off the map and dies fix this please.
Please please please try to fix the consistent crashing at about 6-6.5k score in endless mode. It invalidates any records and wastes the huge amount of time it takes to get to those high scores.
The game seems decent until you realize all you see is all you get. Despite having 5 different levels to unlock they are all pretty much the same, and there is no variation within the levels either. Its clear the designers thought they could get away with just adjusting numbers instead of actually designing a game.
Your enemy could not touch but just be close to you with their weapon in the air and you would die.
We mean we get the concept, its just very sucky and laggy. They dont allow you to prep lab your route and drag prior to the monsters spawning in. Overall meh.
We liked the soundtrack. And nothing else. The gameplay is simple and impressively annoying. Im actually amazed with how frustratingly annoying this game is. One star for the chill beats soundtrack. Otherwise, Id like to throw this piece of rubbish into a volcano.
Boring repetitive mechanics and full of ads do not get.
After all our ours of pleying this game, we can not know how to pronownce the title of the game, this game is bad. Astalo is no good title.
Game is ok but there are a ton of issues, first why is it so hard to hit a target, if you are off by a little you miss and die. Second why is it so easy to die, with one hit your dead and there isnt much time to line up a shot and the targets move to fast and kill you.
No tutorial. We just keep dying. Lots of ads too.
We thought the games was fun for a bit and then an ad starts blaring sound even though our mute switch is on.
PAY TO WIN, this is one of the games where if you actually want to get far you have to watch ads to continue where you left off at or pay.
We've played hundreds if not thousands of games since 1998. Astalo to us, is the worst of mobile gaming. Takes zero thought, just swipe around, and watch the score go up. This game could be remade by one person in a day or two and it'd likely be better. There's just nothing to do. It's very Un fun. To the developer we'd recommend making some obstacle courses maybe that aren't just 1×1 squares. Run through a couple stages, get an obstacle course. Maybe have some gaps or ledges to cross to keep it exciting. The creeps and boss fights are really not enough.
It's just too hard for us to control and too easy to die. Not fun at all.
Its a good game if quite difficult not sure why the ratings are so low.
