  • monetization
    115 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the excessive and intrusive ads that disrupt gameplay, often leading to crashes and a poor user experience.

    • “Overall nice game; in-app purchases are pretty high and could use an alternative for all that.”
    • “The gameplay is super awesome, the design is cute and funny, but the constant bombardment with ads, sometimes crashing the game and sometimes seemingly starting a feedback loop that then crashes the game, and being greeted by another ad upon reopening is super frustrating and makes it about a third of the fun.”
    • “The progression seems designed around paywalls or ads - pick your poison - rather than challenging or meaningful gameplay.”
    • “Great incremental game ruined by super obnoxious ads, even before the game even loads.”
  • gameplay
    73 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally praised for its addictive nature, engaging mechanics, and appealing graphics, with many players finding it fun and entertaining.

Overall, while the game offers enjoyable experiences and solid mechanics, optimization issues and ad interruptions detract from the overall enjoyment for some users.

  • humor
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

  • story
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The reviews indicate a strong desire for a more developed story in the game, with many players expressing that the lack of a narrative detracts from their overall experience.

Overall, the consensus is that a compelling narrative could elevate the game from a simple shooting experience to a more immersive adventure.

    • “It's a fun game with a great background story.”
    • “Really good story to play.”
    • “Only if you could have introduced the turtle with an intro cinematic and a back story, it will win a million hearts. I think it's still not too late to do so.”
    • “The game lacks a storyline; all I do is shoot. It should be more like Nobleman.”
    • “Laggy... no real story behind why you're a tortoise with weapons strapped to your shell or why you got rats with machine guns as allies. You just get dropped into the option screen and go from there.”
    • “It's got awesome graphics, but as far as I can see, it's just an on-rails shooter. It always seems a bit lazy not to go all out and make it open world, spending time doing that and making a story mode.”

Overall, while the game offers engaging elements, the grinding can become a significant drawback for some players.

    • “At level 50 and generation 25 it's getting tedious and repetitive!”
    • “Neat game in that it's a hybrid shooter and tower defense, but after a few reincarnations it gets very very slow and tedious.”
  • optimization

    • “It has a lot of replay value.”
    • “It's loosely based around the premise of Command and Conquer, where you have to upgrade your stats and fortifications to better your chances against an onslaught. What makes this great is that you keep your upgrades when you die, making the return to the point of where you died quick and more devastating. Very high replay value.”
    • “The waiting 50+ minutes after dying to play again is a big turn-off and decreases the replay value.”
  • music
