Community Insight:
Try to purchase but the game not let us log in so only f2p.
Im so addicted to this game its so good and fun 100% you should check it out.
Overall great game. The only thing we dont like is how you cant continue your progress if you close the game. Sometimes we close out for a longer period of time and we end up losing all of our progress and energy. Thats our only complaint, the rest is great.
Why can't we update the game in Vietnam.
HEY why did you replace the W with a K.
At first we loved the game fast paced, catchy music, and SO MUCH MORE!!! But… BOOM!!! It was a whole other level. The Thanksgiving event? Absolute Cinema. The Christmas Event? The Same. We also love that you added many new weapons! Keep up the good work.
Simple gameplay and level up mechanics, fun, and engaging.
This game is awesome and we really enjoy it and the when you have to pick a skill in a level you have to think about the virus and what its pattern is.
This game is easily addictive, has ads but only for bonuses. You can level up fairly quick for a good while though the levels get hard to advance after a point and it gets a little difficult to level up but not enough to be upset about. Special events are fun. When you opt into an ad they arent long, and you have plenty of options. Our only complaint ironically is that there are only 2 ads available for each bonus and we NEED MORE lol. Good work to the devs and this game is fire.
There are absolutely no forced ads !! And you dont need to watch ads to win or enjoy levels. Its just pure uninterrupted gameplay. We love how creative the different bosses are lol.
We cant tell you how many hours Ive spent on this while watching a tv show in the background or a yt video bc Im so addicted . Ive love how theres like basically no ads too which is definitely refreshing to see on an app nowadays but ya one of our top games right now.
Ive been playing this game for a little while, we downloaded it off an ad, and to our surprise the game was identical to the ads. Its pretty fun and a good game to pass time, we fond it quite satisfying. However, we have a few complaints. First, we love how you only need to watch ads for bonuses, but the ads are just so long.. The only other thing is, after watching an ad to continue a level after defeat, some of the abilities dont work the same, like the special-effect tablet doesnt have its burn effect anymore.
This game is just incredible, it's really addicting and fun. We got this game because of the ad's, thinking that the playable ads weren't much like the game, but the game and playable ads are practically identical. We have few complaints however, there's multiple early-ish small roadblocks because a lot of main upgrade systems are unlocked from around chapters 3-6. Also, the optional ads for rewards are incredibly long, which are kind of a waste of time.
Its an alright game but theres energy to spend, which we cant stand in games. Especially this one where it takes roughly 20 minutes for one single energy to appear. Its also very glitchy. You can watch your bullets go through segments of the virus and no damage is taken by them. Its very irritating when the virus is close and a good 30% of the time your bullets do absolutely no damage. Seems to only be a major issue when you get the bullet penetration upgrades. Very critical to the gameplay though, hence the 3 stars.
Adds/ Commercials are getting ridiculously longer. Game is not bad itself but even with the 20 permanent daily add skip purchase it runs out pretty quickly as well.
2 minute+ ads. Really? Also, the "random" nature of spins is hardly random.
The game itself is very enjoyable, but It can be a little slow to level up sometimes. There are no forced ads, but again leveling up can take a while so you want to get coins and upgrades anyway you can. That said, completing some of the daily tasks require you to watch several ads. No problem with this, you get rewards so its fair until we started getting ads that were 1 to 2 minutes long. We end up closing the game every time and not playing anymore. Im sure Im not the only one to have been deterred by this ad thats 4 times the length of the normal ones.
This game is fun no ads are forced enemies are well balanced and the abilities are great but when you open a legendary chest hope you dont get a weapon because it wont give it to you.
You would not beleive how inspirational this game was picture this December 1873 we were at war our friends died. Lets just say we were depressed no way then on a sunny day the war was over and we came back home but we realized we had no one to come back to going to war, we didnt have a family as our parents died and we were only child we wasnt married, we didnt have a girlfriend we didnt have age but then we thought while we get an iPhone and see where it breaks us so we signed up for a job we worked 100 hours every week for this phone we worked at a lumber mill where every tree cut down was one dollar and eventually we summed up $1000 and was able to give an iPhone and then we had an iPhone and we thought what do we buy what do we what do we do? We were out of some sort of midlife crisis and so what we did was we installed this one little gun app called self destroyer, ultimate self defense, self destroyer, life changing self destroy destructionand then what happened it and what do you know it cured our depression it was amazing. It was such a good game. It changed our perspective our life and guess what and guess what it was so good guess what we saw the brain guy and he had his little back and then hello and then his little syringes were so and he impregnated us and we had his child, and our child was so beautiful and it had a little head four little syringes for hands, and it led to our son to escape, which is so amazing and changed our life.
The game is great and keeps the action going. These ads however are way too long. 2 mins for a betting ad that literally repeats 5 times is excessive. Suggest adding more shorter ads of different variety IF you are going to push ads. Some rounds are less than 2 mins just to be forced to watch a longer 2 min ad once finished.
To keep it short our only problem with this game is that its INCREDIBLY hard to beat the second virus cause you cant upgrade until you beat it but its fine we got past it plus unlike some people we actually LIKE hard games.
Seriously love this game, its an absolute blast, but our husband is an Android user and his game has events in it? And we, an Apple user, dont have that in our game, so whats the deal.
We like the game its and fun hardly ads and playable but when we purchased the monthly card we couldnt deactivate it so the game not that good Ive been trying to deactavaye but we cant we dont know.
No reason every ad is over 2 mins long.
This game would be great if it wasnt for the ads. You could buy a monthly pass but at most you get 20 ad skips, yeah sounds like a lot but no its really not. 3 games and theyd be gone.
Id be fun and a good game if there wasnt a bunch of ads and the levels werent so over powered you can barely do any damage and the rewards are not worth even getting.
Game is fun but is also a scam wont let you use any of the legendary until u get them from a different chest we have everything only on chapter 9 and still cant using any legendary or higher skills paid about 25 usd just not to be able to use anything.
Constantly have to restart the game. Usually its due to the game being stuck at 2% when loading in or its because an ad gets stuck on our screen and we cant close out of it. Both cost in game stamina.
A lot of fun and doesnt force ads on you – only optional ads for rewards.
VERY good game. Fun to play and keeps your entertained. However we think there shiukd he easier and more frequent ways to get energy. Other than excellent game.
We love this game, you dont have to watch ads and it really keeps our attention. The only issue is the scaling, for example Im on a boss right now that says you only need a minimum of 7,400 power and we have 11,000 power and we cant even make it past 50% in beating the virus. Its just weird. But other than that we really like it.
We downloaded this three days ago and its been our number one game since. With unlocking different difficulty modes, youre never stuck and always have something to do. Super addictive and fun. You dont have to watch ads, but you can to upgrade.
This game is challenging and fun but the fact that you can only play a few rounds before youre out of energy. Also the current power and recommended power become a pretty significant difference by level 4.
Only ads are for specialty things that you choose to watch. Some levels are very challenging and some levels are easy. It lets you play your favorite levels again in harder difficulty. And the rewards are great. Stamina comes back fairly quickly so if you run out, just wait 30 minutes. And it gives you stamina as a reward often.
No forced ads at all! And gameplay is fun and exciting. Doesnt get redundant even after lots of levels, and lets you replay old levels on harder difficulty for more rewards. We will say that sometimes completing new levels is tough because you sort of hit a weapons leveling plateau eventually, but sometimes you just have to wait to get lucky with the weapons you get on a level. Anyway, really good game and our addiction to it has lasted longer than most other mobile games.
Great game so far no forced ads lots of optional ads that actually help you progress no need to spend money to progress.
They make it practically impossible to do anything without waiting or watching ads. Whenever youre in a battle and get a chest, theyll maybe give you one or two good Enhance Attributes options to choose from and then every time after that its just the dumbest options you dont even want or need. And theyll even force you to only pick from the dumb options even if you refresh it. We literally wasted diamonds/tickets on purpose just to see and they gave us the same 3 options every time. Its so annoying. By the way, devs, dont respond to this. Dont talk about this being helpful for making a better game or that you even appreciate the feedback lol. Because its just bs and you guys know why you do this. You need to profit someway but cmon at least make it less obvious. There should be no reason Im way above the recommended level and lose. Its not even about skill so its not even as satisfying when youre finally allowed to win a battle.
This game is awesome! We always play it. We recently got the turkey egg fragment and the abyssal maw fragment from the red chest, but its still locked in the weapon section? We were just wondering on how to unlock that.
This game is very fun to pass time but we think we found a possibly major bug, sometimes when our bullets reach the enemy it doesnt do any damage or it passes right through even though we didnt get any upgrades for it to do that like we said this game is fun but we feel like this issue should be looked into.
Its hard to get the recommend power for each level. There isnt enough loot to upgrade stuff to get the recommend power. The only way we can beat a level is by watching an ad for a revival.
Overall for how simple the game is its pretty good to pass the time, we know the game is new so Im not going to complain but we wish there were more features one main one we like in any game is the one time purchase for no ads even for extra in game stuff instead of giving tickets to give ads, Ive played many of these types of games before and all the big popular ones are usually like this but willing to stay for the journey to see any future changes.
The games great and we play it constantly and managed to get to chapter 11, not that far we know but recently we got fragments for some of the red weapons but it wont let us unlock them, do we have to be a specific level.
The fact that it costs 500 gems for the new chest, and you literally have less than a 1% (.75 to be exact) to pull a red weapon out of it is just flat out wrong. That means your gonna have to spend 50000 gems before you get a guaranteed pull.
Game plays like its ads do. However, difficulty scales so fast, many of the abilities are next to useless, and the RNG on skill selection seems stacked against the player. We seem to have to play a level 5-10 times to beat it. Upgrades arent very useful and become very sparse. Very common to get through the first 20% of a level and just not be able to get through the rest, repeatedly. Starting at the second level of the game. Has the structure to be so fun, but needs a lot of refinement.
The rest of the game is fine but we cant move our character when in the match so we can hit the monster depending on how it moves so can you please fix it.
Game was super fun when the ads were 30 seconds or less, its been a week since Ive had an ad under a minute and a half. Really sucks since theyre required to beat a level.
There are way too many ads and theyre way too long.
This game would be so much more fun if they didnt have so many three minute ads. Not to mention some of the ads dont close and you lose your place anyways and have to start over after watching a three minute ad.
This game is good and genuinely such a good time HOWEVER the advertising is crazy and necessary to beat the begging levels. The ads are so long and boring you may sometimes watch an ad repeat 5 times before you get the reward. Dont play this game unless you plan on grinding the ads.
Overall we think this game is amazing, there isnt any forced ads, decent replay ability on different difficulties and hard enough to make it a challenge. The only thing holding it back is the no continue run option. So many times we make it deep and have something quick to do and come back and have to restart. Please add a resume run option.
