Community Insight:
Its great but we cant collect money without ads? Or much anything else, Please take them off! Or at least make them all 5 second ads.
THE LAST SHIP IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET!!!!!!! PLEASE FIX.
We love this game but we would love to have more ships.
We would give this game a 5 stars but the problem is that the game freezes sometimes during the middle of the game and it gets annoying.
Really like the game but keeps crashing lately.
We went to beat the final daily and it had about 300q hp each square and our best ship had about 4q damage. It was huge so it hit the sides faster, meaning it went down faster. Also, if you think you can grind because the boss is postponed, NO! The health is now 1 quintillion each square. Our ship had 8q damage. The only solution is to idle, so you cant even play the game if you want to progress.
It constantly crashes, please fix this as soon as you read, this, we wont play otherwise.
Game is great but it literally just keeps crashing. All the time it just crashes. The game freezes on start up and when Im playing and we have to kill the app and open it back up.
This is fun we mean Im only am at level three but Im pretty sure that Im going to love this game and we hope that more people download this because we think people will love this game hopefully.
Around level 200 it becomes literally impossible to beat a yellow boss for the final 2 ships. The scaling hp for whatever reason makes it impossible even with 2x fire rate and perm shields. You can only even kill one unlock square let alone the other 6. Wishing there was some endgame balance changes as Im not stuck waiting around for 1 1/2 hours In game on 978Q to gain +1 on our final ship just to gain a whole 0.7q. Not even enough to slightly change the progression.
Playing it is fun.. But not being able to play after you get to a certain point is crap. Closed the app and now it wont open.
Love the game, but crashes after about level 77 after beating Boss ship.
Amazing and cool game we are going to play it a second time when it finishes downloading and its so cool.
Please fix the bug when the ship crashes the game when you buy it.
Game is interesting until you are 5 to 6 ships in, then progress slows to basically a halt.
Why cant we listen to music or YouTube instead of listening to the garbage sound that this game makes.
A game without the gameplay. Its seriously just an app for watching ads in exchange for arbitrary currency, which you will seldom receive anyway.
So, we love this game. It's really fun. However. After the ship that shoots a V-shaped group of bullets, DO NOT unlock the next ship. Skip that ship, because otherwise, the game will crash whenever you finish the level. We deleted the game and reinstalled it the first time this happened, then made it all the way back, bought the ship, cleared a level, aaaaand the game crashed again. We're downloading it for the third time now, and we're going to wait to have enough money to buy the ship AFTER the ship that breaks the game, since it's early enough that offline money and hard work can get you to that point. But it's absolutely worth getting and even working around the bug. And devs, if you read this, PLEASE FIX THAT BUG.
Its a fun take on an idel game with great artwork. Best way to kill time and escape from boredom.
Best game ever played try to add something new and cool.
This is our first game review and Im going to be a bit critical, but only because we really enjoy wasting time with this game and we think just about anyone would…That said, we would give this game 4 stars for the sheer mindless boredom killer it is, you really dont even have to be paying attention to move your thumb back and forth(which the wife unknowingly appreciates, as Im able to simply lift our head from the game when something other than the game should have our attention. A little perk some other games dont afford her, lol.) If youve made it this far might as well hear the gripes after the praise… We started this game and after many many hours into it, there was an apparent update(which was welcomed) that inadvertently required us to start from square one, no credit for all the ships we had spent so much time unlocking and upgrading, and while the new ship/power up upgrading is a bit easier than before, its still a shame to have lost quintillions and billions worth of upgrade time. Ill have to agree with the previous review, still takes an inordinate amount of time to upgrade…which leads us to our only other gripe about the game, and its the same as in the first iteration…On numerous(think 50/50), when we press the button to watch an ad to either gain shield/increase income/double firepower, one of two things happen(keep thinking 50/50)…the button will turn grey and play no video, or, we sit through a 30 second ad for nothing to have given the reward for watching the ad. Which is also the same half chance if not worse odds when we log back in and it gives you the option to watch an ad to double the while you were away income, Id say its a one in four chance you actually double the income while you were away(and yes, this is on a WiFi connection). Last, and probably most disheartening, is when Ive mindlessly racked up billions, trillions, and quintillions actually playing and save up enough to upgrade a ship for a trillion a pop and the firepower doesnt even increase(no theyre not max level, because when we save enough and upgrade again, Im usually lucky enough to have it work the second or third time. And if they are max level, shame on you for allowing us to spend hard earned points, lol) we know Im picking on a free to play game that allows you to spend money to make it easier and quicker, but spending money isnt what we consider these talentless time obliterating games to be for. Big thumbs up to the dev for the style and Ill continue to waste our waste-able time with it, but if your not into wasting time with only a hope of leveling up, maybe try one of their other more refined games. All in all a solid 3 stars, would change to 4 after some polishing up.
Youre basically held hostage to ads on this game. The banner across the top is easily ignored, but having an ad play every time we collect the money, and slapping a $4 price tag on ad removal? No thanks. 3 Stars for fun. Lost 2 stars for price tag on ad removal.
Relatively good game for people that enjoy idle games but as many idle games have ben doing that we have noticed, is that ads pop up far to frequently for playing the game to be tolerable…unfortunately.
A good idle game with no ads. A little slow to progress however.
