Have enjoyed playing this game. Would love to see a new update to give this game some new life especially with a better adjustment to newer phones in touch.

Amazing, even though it hasn't been updated in 6 years, it's still one of the top games I play. Thank you, devs, for a good game that's simple yet fun, I hope you hear this because you did good.

This game would be good if it wasn't such a pay to play game, I mean you don't Have to pay, but if you don't you'll take very, very long to reach a level were you can see progress, FEELS LIKE A CASH GRAB, think mushroom wars but Pay to win, and the game isn't even a complete version, the game has too many bugs that makes it not worth doing the actual game play, I just log in to collect daily rewards and leave, there's legit nothing else to do
★★☆☆☆Angel Canales· Jun 11, 2025
It was an awesome and personal favorite for me, but ever since they last updated, it's pretty bad now. I do wish they could update this game more, like adding new troops and traps, and fixing the bugs aswell like the free key, but honestly they should either make keys more common [making the adds playable.] or remove it because it's basically impossible get any keys beside the daily quests, but that only gives you three in total then, and without keys you progress any further.
