HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (22 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ My friend has build 156, can you update the game to that version please?

★★★★★ To mine for minerals, and then destroy waves of enemies is fun.
★★★★★ The longer campaign is mostly tower defense, and mod support isn't great, but despite that it's still pretty fun and 100% worth the 2 bones

Worth the money7%

12 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ Worth every penny, I might give it a one star because it charge to less, no in game micro transactions no ads just pure bliss chaotic at times gameplay.

★★★★★ Controls are fine, placing is fine, and even figuring out enemy strategies is easy.

Probably good? Unreadable even on large iPad…

Font is waaay too small. Struggle to see on a large iPad. I never even got to play level 1. A shame. Based on ratings I’m sure it’s great.

★★★★★Sep 20, 2026
Honestly a good game, even for me being on mobile

I found this game by a suggestion from a friend, wanted to try it out and see if it was for me. I honestly get lost in time because the game is so immersing. Controls are fine, placing is fine, and even figuring out enemy strategies is easy. I don’t know what people are talking about the game not working on mobile, mine is perfectly fine. But 10/10 on the game, I love it and would suggest it to others.

★★★★★Sep 17, 2026
Unintuitive and clunky on iPhone

Really sold on the concept, but the execution really leaves a lot to be desired. On an iPhone, all the icons are miniscule. The steps you have to take are unintuitive and difficult. So disappointing as it seems like such a great concept, but the design and execution are deeply flawed. On a PC, I could see this being excellent. Just not for mobile.

★★★★★Sep 16, 2026
Purchased This Game

I just recently purchased this game, I love it. I had also bought this game in prison for my tablet, I loved it then as well. To mine for minerals, and then destroy waves of enemies is fun. I really like the idea of using the game without Wi-Fi. It is a very well put together system and can’t wait for more games like this to come out. Thank you for bringing me the pleasure of this experience.

Not the best on a phone

It might have been better if I had played this somewhere else before but starting with this version it is unplayable and a waste of money. The text is too small to read and making it bigger means zooming and scrolling back and forth and trying to figure out what it wants me to do next. And it’s not like it’s hard to tap on a skill/tech to research, it just takes a ridiculous amount of time and effort to see the sentence telling you to do so.
