Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
There are no ads and if the wait time is too long they put you against a bot. The only thing we could ask for is ranked games and 2 player.
We love the skill that it takes to play this game sometimes and the goofy characters. Overall just try the game out its fire.
Hey BoomSlingers! To start out we want to say that this is a very fun game for at home or in the car thanks to offline mode. But, there arent many battle decks for offline which we made up an idea for a new one. It would be called Farmer (or something in that area) it would be the only offline deck to have a heal method being the peach, it would also have the poison peach, cow, chicken, horse, both kinds of laser bananas, and a normal jump for transportation. Hope you see this and put it into an idea! :).
This game is peak (not many active players though).
We really love this game and we dont play a lot of mobile games but we always come back to this one. However, we cant seem to get any real people to play against now. We always get the ai with all the same characters and general names. Please fix this, we didnt download this to play with fake opponents.
Back in of version the lab wasnt boompass so we got to colored our ship as much as we wanted.
So we found this game and we downloaded it and when we started playing this game it was super fun because we had to kill the ememy that you were battling with and we were extremely good doing that. Honestly we would give this app 5 stars.
This game used to be so fun. And it still is, but they have added lots of changes. For example, more ads, more pay to win stuff, and worse gameplay altogether. About 2 years ago we would have said it was one of the best mobile games out there, but now its not :(.
Great game we have been playing for the longest time. We finished the Current Galaxy with 12000 and earn the Cosmic Badge kind of disappointment there we tough we were going to recieve something to get there. Like being able to buy the character we wanted or something greater we dont know.
Really good game just wish there was more to come back to (you should still try it though).
Tried to fix matchmaking but now we cant even get into a match and we lose trophies just cuz its broken.
When we wake up we play this game when Im on lunch break we play this game and when we get back home we play this game. We are so hooked on this game its A little scary anyways But one thing we wish they could add was some more voices or phrases.
This game reminds us of many computer flash games that we played as a kid. It is extremely well-made. The progression is great, constant update to the game, makes it continually playable.
Ive played this game for years and it still hasnt gotten old. Its constantly being updated and plenty of new challenges on the weekends. Overall a really great game.
Listen, this game has kept us coming back for the last 3 years. The 1v1, graphics, and game play keep evolving and we keep having fun. When you try it, we hope you like it as much as we have.
We think boom slingers is the perfect game for quick competitive fun, theres a good amount of strategy, lots of unique ways to make your deck, plus its not pay to win. You can pretty easily upgrade your deck while not paying a cent. Really fun characters, hats are cute, map editor. Everything we could as for from a game, and its completely free. We love this game, we recommend it to all our friends.
Love the game, feels like WORMS and chess mixed up fr.
Our friend suggested this game and it is amazing the begining is fun and stays fun plus its feeds our gambling addiction! :).
We love it because we like to play with our brother and it's relaxing. Thank you for making this game.
Ok we got a gift randomly for a review we never did so please give it to the right person next time lol (also our user on it is Average) have a good day.
Game relies on luck, no real strategy involved. Actions go through characters many times, hitboxes need fixing. Force as a concept doesnt matter in this, you can be sent across the map just to fall back into the start point because the maps uneven. Overall pretty good game, just needs tweaks to make every deck fair against another, no matter what cards are used, whether its map tweaks or card tweaks.
First time we were playing it worked fine, but when we closed the app and tried to play again it made us get permanently stuck on the tutorial. Is there a corruption on our profile or is the game just bugged? Overall, the game was fun when we played on our android. We dont have our account from our android on our iPhone so we had to start from scratch, thats how we found the bug. We really miss the game and we would love to play again.
So theres this glitch where we got past the tutorial matches to the multiplayer matches and the game thinks we just got our first chest so it tells us to open it then we have to wait 2 hours for it to open then we open our game again and it does the same thing and we have to wait 2 more hours without even being able to do anything else in the game.
Great game, but we couldnt get trophies and when we tried to close the game it forces us to click on the box and then speed it up, but when we do that, it says Error. Try again later.
Gameplay seems sound, but after the first session the game is no longer playable. It starts up fine, but upon displaying the UI none of the icons or buttons are interactable.
This game is CRIMINALLY underrated. Everything about it is perfect. We never written a review before for an app but this game is so good that we had to do it. Easily the only game we play on our phone. The strategy, the maps, the music, the sound effects, the community, the cards, are all perfect. There is so much more to this game but we dont wanna spoil it. The simplicity of this game is amazing. We have enjoyed the journey we took on this game. Such as, being a beginner and learning how the cards worked and watched YouTube tutorials, to pulling off satisfying combos on our enemies. So what are you doing hesitating?? GET THIS GAME RIGHT NOW.
Brilliant game but please fix your matchmaking we cant keep playing players 8 levels ahead of us.
This game is so good! Wish there was a friend feature or better 1v1 features.
We think this game is really awesome and cool but as we started playing more for some reason our game got stuck on the starting UI. We cant click anything or do anything Ive even tried to delete and reinstall but it does not work.
Overall its a very well-made and enjoyable game, but there are a few things that we wish were different: 1. We know some other people have mirrored this sentiment, but earlier in the game, overall damage for all cards was lower, but this was changed a while back, which wasnt a change we were a fan of. After the universally increased damage, games end much faster, and virtually every deck we play against is exactly the same, so we wish the damaging was rebalanced a bit so that there were more variety in the meta (and so we dont have a character get one-shot on round 1 in every game). 2. There is no casual mode. From the moment you start the game, you are playing in ranked, though you only begin to lose trophies on losses a decent way into the ranks (worlds). But, for less competitive players like us, we wish there were an option to not have to play to win or lose trophies so that there were less pressure. We also feel like the player-base tends toward the more toxic side, and this would help people who just want to have fun avoid them, which kindve feeds into our next bullet. 3. This one is pretty specific, but there is a barfing reaction/emoji that we dont really understand the purpose of. Most of the other reactions are pretty tame and cant really be used in a particularly toxic way, but it almost feels like this one was made to be used in a toxic way, so we wish it would be removed, though we know its unlikely to happen.
We loved boom slingers when it was still about a few months old but with the new game updates we dont like it as much. Now the meta is based on making the other character run out of health but before it was based off pushing the opponent into lava. Also its much easier to get cards now with boom boxes.
No joke this is the best game Ive played on mobile with minimal adds, a great community, and great gameplay but we dont like how cards are locked behind different galaxys can we have a free shadow character.
One of our favorite mobile games of all time! One major complaint: you get punished for the queue being empty. If no opponent is found within a certain amount of time you get matched against a CPU that has godlike aim of which Ive never seen recreated by an actual player. We win a lot on this game, when our win streak ends, 90% of the time it is ended by a CPU because their aim is just spot on. It feels really unfair to lose our trophies that way.
What were you thinking, please go back to 10hp per level, we know the difference between 8 and 10 seems small, but you have to understand this DRASTICALLY reduces the total hp you have going from 180hp to 151hp and this decrease in hp only amplifies the higher level you are. So please, please please please revert this change -sincerely HC, playing since around 2020.
Get this game theyre are like no ads unless you ask for ads for rewards and its non pay to win.
Great game we just hope the devs add a feature to have at least one more deck to swap so we dont have to change the only deck we have every time the map changes.
We know, and frankly, we all know that boom slingers is super duper awesome. But, on apple. For the past two weeks it has been glitched out. It started once we got all three of our training battles done, it was locked on the same ui no matter what we did. We tried redownloading it, restarting our phone, and now sending you guys a message. We hope this is able to be fixed;).
Buenas noches una consulta porque no acomodan los niveles ms altos en si ganas te dan 30 puntos si pierdes te quitan 30 puntos: es q como es posible q uno gana y le dan solo 8 puntos y si pierdes te quitan 30 la verdad eso le quita mucho las ganas de jugar por q us parece muy injusto.
This game is really fun, we keep coming back to it! Great match-making, great mechanics and progression system. Only reason we gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because we cant collect all the characters for some reason, the inventory caps off at 100, so theres 48 more that wont fit! We dont see why, but oh well. Other than that, a near perfect game with few bugs in our experience.
Id like to start by saying we love this game, its very fun. Our constructive criticism is that whenever we try to open the game now since this new update it lags then crashes. We really miss playing the game but we havent been able to play at all the past few days due to crashing every single time we try. Also, sometimes matchmaking can pair you with someone much higher level than you which would be fine and no big deal, but because we lose progress in the galaxy when we lose a round, it doesnt always feel good to be paired with someone higher level and have lower odds at winning. Other than those two things, we really love this game so much! Devs you made a great game :D.
This is our absolute favorite game on our mobile device. However, at one point the data didnt sync and now we are incapable of pressing any UI buttons, even when uninstalling and reinstalling. Edit: Ive bought the game on steam and intend to link our account on mobile to our steam account. We filed a support ticket on the Discord server to no avail, with the admin claiming theyd help us but havent yet. We realized our two star rating was harsh and am increasing it to 4. We know that you probably gave us an AI generated response, so we dont see why bother, but we decided to anyways.
Game is a lot of fun. Only problem is that Im stuck on the main page and cant click anything:/.
So you know how in games internet make you disconnect? Well this game you just get trophies taken away like why though? Like just make it so they just dont lose trophies just make it fair. We disconnect a bit so we lose our trophies for no reason.
Cant play the game because an ad will play during the game and it always disconnects us from the match.
The game is just an above average mobile game. 5/5 would recommend.
Love this game, takes us back to the old days where there was a game called Worms for SuperNES.
This game is great. A ton of awesome cards and a good player base. Ive been playing for a few months now and love the updates that have been coming. Keep it up guys.
Hey! Boom Slingers is awesome! Its been our favorite game for a few months now, and we would like to write some feedback, all we would like to say is, our favorite card, the eye laser, Ive been working to get for almost a month. Its starting to feel like for some reason we cant unlock it? But we would appreciate it if you could make it more obtainable. Thank you so much.
We love this game, its one of our favorites, but PLEASE work on android compatibility. We see it works great on apple phones and probably even better on steam, but you currently cannot play the game past the tutorial on android from the play store.
Your game is good but the events are stupid, our phone died and youre gonna charge us for that? Fix the events and give us more than one life on a revive. Its stupid that because our phone died or we had bad Wi-Fi we get charged for it. Dumb game, only reason its a 3 is because you dont always have a unfair matchup.
