  • monetization
    32 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many players feeling overwhelmed by the reliance on ads and microtransactions to progress. While the game is free to play, users report that watching ads often yields minimal rewards, and the design appears to intentionally encourage spending money or viewing excessive ads. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as a cash grab, detracting from the gameplay experience.

    • “Not too easy and not hard to get past; no in-app purchases required as long as you keep playing and learn everything. Good graphics, good sound, good controls.”
    • “Plus, with no ads, glitches are rare and reasonably updated.”
    • “No bugs, no advertisements.”
    • “Seems to be intentionally scaled so that you have to either spend money or watch excessive amounts of ads.”

    • “It is disappointing the game has a lot of microtransactions.”
  • story
    17 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is criticized for lacking depth and originality, with many players noting the absence of unique mechanics or a compelling narrative. While some find the storyline engaging and challenging, others express frustration over repetitive mission updates and a lack of backstory for alien races. Overall, the narrative elements seem to be a mixed bag, with players desiring more variety and coherence in the storytelling.

    • “The game is good and fun because it is quite challenging with a good storyline and quests.”
    • “Awesome game, super tough and definitely needs some practice runs to finish the story.”
    • “Anyway, I much prefer the storyline of Plague, and think the options are more varied in Plague.”
    • “They didn't add any unique mechanics to the game, not even a story or scenery mode.”
    • “The story of aliens killing or enslaving doesn't work as well as creating a virus/bacteria, etc. I do like destroying the red planes (with scientific secrets).”
    • “Great game and great concept, but it needs some sort of backstory for each of the races about why they want to seize the Earth or something.”
  • stability
    15 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, frequently freezing during key interactions such as upgrades and menu navigation, which hampers gameplay and progression. Users report that these glitches can lead to lost progress and unresponsive controls, making it difficult to complete even the tutorial. While some players appreciate the concept, the persistent bugs detract from the overall experience.

    • “The game freezes as though I'm in a menu without actually opening it.”
    • “It's a good idea for the game, but it's so buggy that when I press the upgrade button, it just pauses the game and I get no upgrade menu.”
    • “Game is unresponsive; I can't even get through the tutorial because whenever I tap on anything, it freezes.”
  • humor
