WHAT THEY ASK FOR

  • Needs a "no graphics" option like the old kong version. 4★, Jul 6, 2022
  • Needs a help section for contacting devs. 4★, Apr 25, 2022
  • And if I want a third mutagen upgrade it's "250 million"? 5★, Feb 8, 2022
  • its amazing but can you make a update where the hard to get resorses to get a new qwean and nest it so much to get 5★, Oct 6, 2021
  • I do think you should add more units as well as skins for your swarmers and other things you can unlock from achievements which give you an advantage 5★, Sep 13, 2021

Fast1%

★★★★★ 2) the shapes aren't smooth I just see rough polyhedrons 3) the game doesn't have any mobs, I hope that they add mobs to the game to defeat and get loot.
★★★★★ When you grab loot from the gold bug that run across the screen, you can double click the grab loot if your fast enough.
★★★★★ Great game at first laggy then turn off 3d background and it is smooth

★★★★★Dec 9, 2025

I know it's been a while since I last downloaded the game but they didn't have to delete me, I've iterally lost years worth of stuff. since 2018

★★★★★Oct 24, 2025

I've been playing this game for years at this point now, since COVID. I gave it 5 stars and as a game, it deserves 5 stars. however, it seems the creator has abandoned the game and the leaderboard is forever broken. I hope this one review is heard and brings the developer back one last time to fix the leaderboard. I was so close to the top on a couple categories right before it went down. I think it would be cool to see where I stack up now against all the old giants.
