“Recent user voice shows a mixed sentiment. Users appreciate engaging gameplay and progression systems, but report excessive advertising and technical stability and performance.”
What Users Love
It is an amazing and fun game, I love it.
Fun game and great time killer!!!
You can use your money to buy some new skins or powers and pets.
The concept of it is good with being able to switch hero’s, changing their powers, and to have a pet.
Pain Points
Everytime you complete a level it forces you to watch a ad.
I paid for no ads and I understand this game is basic but I paid for no ads there are still ads.
Lately the game has been crashing on my cell making me restart on level one.
Lags like crazy, no permanent weapon upgrades, special powers suck and keeps crashing.
