Community Insight:

Addicting HELP (seriously please support this guy he makes good games. We recommend stick ranger! Its got deeper gameplay than you think.


We have played this game a couple of years back and it gives us a nice nostalgic feel now. We would like more games that are similar to this and stick ranger. They are fun to play.


Please port to Steam, thank you.


Its the best game when no ads pop up in your screen and whats better? Roblox is also a no ads pop up game too.


A cute little game with stick figures where you have to balance upgrading the enemy for more money and upgrading your stickman to not die (if you get bored we recommend getting all the medals).


Anytime we get a new phone this is one of the first games we download. Always a solid game to come back to.


Uh we guess that gladiator is the best for taking out large amounts of enemies, boxer is good for one enemy, archer is good for those flying things or anything that is in the air, and the wizard is useless. We cant find a good thing about him, he just has low damage and low attack speed. That is all for the fighter types maybe.


We wish there were more characters or more upgrades. Maybe even a zoom feature so we can watch the little stickmen do their job. Hopefully DNA-BALL sees this and maybe works on these requests. Very fun nonetheless.


Maybe you could add a sandbox mode where you start with 0 money but with infinite monsters and stockman levels.


The game is high quality with very good FPS and fun gameplay! The game has you start in a sandbox with a monster box creating monsters. You have to buy a guy and he will fight for you. You can grab him and fling him around to deal extra damage and have funny physics. 10/10.


Its simple, easy to learn the basics of and plenty of wikis about good strats online. Medals save that give you extra boosts so it never feels like youre losing anything when you reach game over. Restarting with a huge boost after the first time hitting game over and it only goes up and gets better from there.


Really fun game, but the maximum gems you can earn in a run is lower than needed to earn maximum player level medals, and there are quite a few of those. We would really appreciate it if they let you get gems after maxing out all the bosses or something of the sort. It would make the game whole.


The game is good but you only have 4 player options this game needs a bit more player options and enemy so please update it we would very much like that so plz.


…on newer high def phones, the little dudes are so small we can barely see them. Hard to see them fighting etc. Had to give up. Maybe a zoom function or something.


We uses to like it but if you die everything is reset not we put a lot of time in this game or anything.


There are some complicated games out there but we like these free simple games over the games that took a whole team 7 years to make. We have a great amount of respect to all game developers. Thank you for the enjoyment.


Would be nice to be able to expand further/more heroes/areas.


We love this concept but the game tends to game over before the bar filling up. Would love more in game descriptions of what effects do as well.


So no more keys after you watch an add for a key to pay for no adds.


We dont write reviews so thats enough of an explanation in our opinion in other words greatest game we have played in a very long time.


Played MonsterBox on pc then found out they had this, been playing here and there for quite some while. Still like it and we turn it on every now and then. Plus everything is a little more manageable and clear.


Seriously. Huge fan of your apps. Great work. This game is a fine balance between a nice idle game and a strategy game. Hope to see more soon.


We think this game is great but could you make an idle game just that but when you hit the monster cap its not over.


Sometimes it decides to crash for no reason. Hope this gets fixed soon.


We love this game so much but we wish there was sand box mode.


We like the concept. You buy fighters and upgrade them, then upgrade the monsters to allow you to make more money. But theres no clear goal in the game. Whats the point? Is it to make the most powerful monster? No, if you do that then you lose because there can only be a certain number of monsters on screen at one time before you get game over and have to start all over againif monsters get too powerful they build up, exceed that limit, and you lose. Is it to make the most powerful fighter? No. Theres a limit on how many times you can upgrade them. And while it is possible to upgrade that limit, the price increases exponentially at a rate so insanely high that after about 3 of those upgrades, youre never going to be able to upgrade them again. Is it to make the most money? No… Like we mentioned earlier, upgrade costs skyrocket at an insane, unbalanced pace for the most important upgrades. It starts at a reasonable 100 coins, then jumps to 1000, then 10k, 100k, 1 million, etc. For upgrades that give you tiny benefits that become less impactful the longer youve played for. The only goal we can think of is to get all of the achievements. But theyre all hidden from you until you earn them, so you wont know how to get them until you accidentally stumble upon them… So you cant really work towards them. Plus the ones that we have found have multiple levels that quickly become really, really grindy to the point where its just not fun anymore. Like we said before, we like the concept. But we just wish there was a specific goal given to us, and we wish the other useless elements (like being able to easily upgrade slimes so they will revive 200 times before dying ~without even upgrading how much gold they give you upon death~, guaranteeing youll lose) would be taken out so we wont be confused and can end the game with something other than game over or boredom.


This game is great we works on our iPhone 6 Anytime Phone you if have is android or iOS.


At first we thought it went on forever until we died.


THIS GAME IS THE BETTER THEN SUPID Fortnite BECAUSE IT'S ON IPad mini.


This game is awesome! We left it on over night and got 34,600,000 Money! This game is the best.


Once you start you cant stop! Try getting some money generation going and then leaving the game on overnight.


We love how it plays. You made an awesome game dude.


First three times we played we stoped wondering what the heck was this. The fourth time we began playing and it was amazing. 40 minutes of hack and slash glory. Very nice game DanBall. Very nice indeed.


Great game for passing the time.


Great way of passing time, and its not a pay-to-win, which is good.


You are one of our fav. Pixel Game Creators yet keep on making those games don't rush take your time if you rush life will be harder so take your time.


We just recently got our iPhone X, and when we got on the game, the notch cuts the bar off. Can you please optimize this game and all of your other games for the new phone? We dont want a hardware feature to be intrusive to probably one of the most important parts of this game.


Okay you did everything perfect with this game with the keys and stuff we are getting all our stick men completely upgraded to the max we have beaten the entire game and now we come to make one suggestion can you please add in the next update where you can have the rotate effect so we can see the screen better Im having to get very close to the screen if this happens we will rate 5 stars.


We love the game one of the best games on our phone but please add more Stickmen like the ones from your other game StickRangers.


We LOVE THIS GAME!!!! Please add more things!!!! This game would be 100x better if there was more features added.


There's a lot going on and it's a bit hard to comprehend but it's a fun game.


Fun and addictive but we can't see but 1/10th of the action :(.


We really like all of the games from this developer, though this one is our favorite. Thank you.


We loved it on the PC and we love it on here.
