I thought it was just going to be another clickbait trashy mobile game. But surprisingly... I've been playing non-stop!!! It was a lot more difficult than I expected but that made the challenge so much more fun. It's filled with ads, but that doesn't really bother me too much. And the price of some things are a bit too much for anyone, that's why I give it one less star for the prices and ads. But seriously!! I never thought I'd enjoy a game like cell survivor so much. I love the art style too!

I hope the shards via ads should be halved... I think it should be more feasible to do them with ads but yk it's fine. Also I think there should be a way for the pets (that are being upgraded) can add to the current strength. Also the other chests (red and blue ones) should also have a chance to get to unlock other weapons through them! Hope this helps!

Good fun but challenging. I've dropped a star as a lot of the adverts for extra rewards crash the game and when you reload, the game continues but without the extra rewards, and you get nothing from the chests

In the year+ I've been playing I've watched this free to play game with optional paid upgrades become unusable for f2p - especially for someone starting now. I liked the difficulty & ultra slow progression and didn't mind the 10+ long ads - I am not exaggerating - just to do daily reset (+ up to 8 ads every level) - but I got a new phone and can't transfer my year+ of gameplay, with ofc no response from support. So that's it for me! (+ just pulled basically a rug pull scam(?) on paying players!)

I spent about half the time watching ads just to be able to progress because you can't finish a level without losing, so you watch an ad to revive, then another ad for perks and then another ad because the virus reached me and repeat until you finish a level and that level might tske 3 or 4 tries. It's an enjoyable game, but I had to uninstall it. 1 star for the amount of ads you need to watch. 4 stars for fun but volume of ads makes it less fun.

You can't even beat the first level, they made it so the numbers of the enemy multiply way too high before you can even build up some of the upgrades. HORRIBLE GAME
