    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, with frequent freezes occurring every 30 seconds to a minute, rendering it nearly unplayable. Users report that these freezes often require force quitting the app, and they experience unresponsive gameplay, particularly during the first mission. Overall, the game's stability problems detract from the overall experience, despite its appealing aspects.

    • “Could be a nice pastime, but it randomly freezes in 1-5 minutes of playtime and makes it unplayable.”
    • “Black screen still persists on the latest version, freezes randomly, items that you need to get in every map are hard to collect due to the mobs popping in your character's radius, making it complicated to advance to new levels.”
  • monetization
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy in the game features optional rewarded ads that allow players to gain upgrades and power-ups without mandatory payments, which many users find reasonable. However, some players express frustration with the frequency of ads, particularly when they disrupt gameplay, and there are complaints about technical issues that detract from the overall experience. Overall, while ads are present, they are not considered overly intrusive by all players.

    • “Also, coming back from video ads in the game turns off pause, so you can't have time to decide what to grab, and if you were in the middle of dodging, good luck.”
    • “Okay game but has AI art (which is bad if you understand the plight of artists) and too many ads.”
    • “Stupid, watch ads all the time for anything.”

  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

  • gameplay
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of "Mars Survivors" is generally well-received, with players appreciating the controller compatibility and engaging mechanics.

Despite occasional technical issues like freezing and app crashes, the game shows promise with its unlockable content and charming graphics.

    • “I was playtesting your game and I must say I'm genuinely impressed with the gameplay experience. I love that your game can work with controllers, but the enemy waves are a bit hard; level 6 wave instantly gets super challenging. I feel like there are few weapons to pick from, and I think there should be more. Overall, I have a feeling that this game has the potential to be the best it can be. Keep the game going strong!”
    • “Simple, cute graphics, solid gameplay mechanics, and plenty to unlock without in-app purchases.”
