Ammo Fever is a free-to-play tower defense game where players manage ammo production and turrets to defend against enemies.

What the developer says changed (the verdict above weighs this against what reviewers report):

Bug fix and performance improvements.

Recurring themes

Excessive Ads negative
The most prevalent complaint is the overwhelming number of forced ads, appearing every few seconds or minutes, often mid-game or after every action, making the game unplayable for many. Users report watching more ads than playing the game.R2R3R7R8
Game-Breaking Bugs negative
Many users report critical bugs, especially the inability to equip or unequip turrets after switching them, which prevents progression. Other bugs include not receiving money from defeated enemies, non-functional rewarded ads, and paid features not working. The developer's notes mention 'Bug fix and performance improvements,' but recent reviews contradict this, indicating these issues persist.R4R19R26R29
Conveyor Belt Bottleneck negative
A recurring issue is that the conveyor belt, which transports ammo to turrets, is too slow and cannot be upgraded sufficiently. This creates a bottleneck, preventing turrets from firing at their maximum rate, regardless of other upgrades.R36R61R163R207
Lack of Sound/Music negative
Several reviewers note the absence of sound effects or background music, which makes the game feel bland and awkward, even for those who paid to remove ads.R15R129R221R249
Enjoyable Gameplay positive
Despite the issues, a segment of users genuinely enjoy the core gameplay loop, finding it fun, challenging, and a good way to pass time. Some even praise it as 'amazing'.R1R5R9R10

Who it's for

This game is for players who enjoy simple, casual tower defense mechanics and are willing to tolerate a high volume of ads or play offline R37R282. It might appeal to those looking for a quick time-killer R5R127. It is NOT for players who dislike frequent interruptions, expect polished gameplay, or want a game without significant progression-blocking bugs R7R31R61.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew heavily negative, primarily due to the overwhelming ad frequency and game-breaking bugs. While the lifetime rating is high, the recent sentiment indicates a significant decline in user experience, suggesting the game's quality has deteriorated or issues have become more prominent.

  1. [R1] 5/5 · US Ammo Fever: Gun Defense: The game was amazing!!!10/10
  2. [R9] 5/5 · US Best game EVER!!!: Just cuz
  3. [R14] 5/5 · US Best game I got: The most chillest game to play
  4. [R51] 5/5 · US Fun time: This is an enjoyable game i’d truly say the only downside is the ads. Other then that it is a lot of fun.
  5. [R5] 3/5 · US I: A lil boring but is good for long rides
  6. [R127] 4/5 · US Cabin fever: I think that it is a little to hard but after All it Is easy to pass time and I like it
  7. [R133] 5/5 · US I was so wrong earlier: This game is great if your looking for a fun mobile game to play for hours
  8. [R37] 5/5 · US Turn off the internet: I love this game because you can turn off the internet.!
  9. [R282] 3/5 · GB .: Games not bad but the amount of adverts are ridiculous, but when you turn off your Wi-Fi and data the ads go away but I’m not stuck with a new problem and I can equip new towers and and stuck with just one . Please fix this issue and the amount of ads otherwise this game is a waste
  10. [R2] 1/5 · US Ad heavy: Way too many ads
  11. [R3] 1/5 · US this game sucks: EVERY 25 SECONDS A 30 SECOND ADD POPS UP
  12. [R7] 1/5 · US More like AD Fever: Avoid this cash grab, the gameplay loop is very boring and you are littered with ads per round that you end up watching more ads than watching the game play.
  13. [R8] 1/5 · US Dear god: First of all the gameplay got stale after 5 minutes, there’s no strategy beyond just making sure your numbers are bigger and the main issue here, is the ungodly amount of ads, I counted about 5 unprompted in 1 level, this is asinine, never make a game again.
  14. [R4] 3/5 · US Good game but: I can’t switch towers when I got the multi target tower I switched it out for the sniper tower but when I unequipped the turret I can’t equip another one so I stopped playing please fix this
  15. [R31] 1/5 · US GAME-BREAKING BUG: When I first got this game, I thought it was very entertaining. The ads were definitely there, but still manageable. However, upon playing for a while I discovered this: once you unequip a turret YOU CAN NEVER EQUIP IT AGAIN. I have tried restarting my phone, restarting the app, everything. Not sure why I cannot find anyone else talking about this. If this bug gets fixed my opin
  16. [R63] 3/5 · US Good but broken: The game is good but I can’t equip guns
  17. [R97] 5/5 · US bug: idk if its just me but i cant equip new guns after i unequip old ones im stuck with just one in use and cant equip anything else
  18. [R36] 4/5 · US Conveyor belt: Pretty fun, a bit grindy but it’s not that bad. Ads can be much but I figured out how to avoid unnecessary ads. However, the conveyor belt, I really wish you could upgrade it, it is so often the bottleneck.
  19. [R61] 1/5 · US Locked By Speed: You can’t get past certain stages without the ad/pay boosters because it locks your speed of what you can get to your turrets. It doesn’t matter how many bullets you have if you can’t get them. I always have a stack super high waiting to go on the track and can’t get them down fast enough.
  20. [R163] 3/5 · US Fun but fundamentally flawed: Overall a fun game! But the mechanics render it impossible to progress - the conveyor belt is too slow so it bottlenecks your rate of fire. If they fixed that issue this game would be thoroughly enjoyable.
  21. [R207] 3/5 · US Fire rate/conveyor: What’s the point in having an upgrade for fire rate if your conveyor system holds back the ammo? Fix this please! The ammo stacks on the ammo side of the conveyor instead of the turret side meaning your turrets have to wait for ammo to arrive and can’t shoot as fast as they’re supposed to!
  22. [R15] 1/5 · US No sound: No sound
  23. [R129] 3/5 · US IT NEEDS SOUND: I have been playing for since this game came out and it needs sound
  24. [R221] 3/5 · US Idk if this is a problem for anybody else: So the app is fine yes to many adds but in general it’s pretty good the worst problem is that for me I don’t get any sound while playing I don’t know if this is a problem for anybody else but if it could be fixed please
  25. [R466] 3/5 · AU No Sound: I paid for no ads, because it was pretty ridiculous how many there were and I was enjoying the game, but the only thing thats really bothering me now is how awkward no sound is. It’s offputting. It really isn’t hard to get some sound going for a game like this!
  26. [R32] 1/5 · US Buggy: Worked fine at first (besides all the ads). Now, none of the enemies give money when killed. Can’t progress because I can’t get more ammo.
  27. [R93] 4/5 · US It’s fun…. But: This game is a great time passer, and it takes some actual thought to win. But there are so many bugs within the game. The most annoying and probably the most prevalent, is the money production glitch, which basically stops all money production no matter what, meaning you’re pretty much screwed if you aren’t set up with enough ammo crates to survive. It can happen start of game, ea
  28. [R108] 3/5 · US I like it but it needs work: I’ve managed to get to level 6, but I think there might be a bug in the game. I don’t always get money as I’m defeating the enemy so it’s hard to upgrade the ammo boxes. So I end up not being able to get past wave number 5 on that level. Which is a bummer. It would be nice if there were more upgrades, like you could upgrade how much defeated enemies drop and maybe some
  29. [R450] 3/5 · AU Glitch: I can’t do level 7 as no cash is given for killing mob. Otherwise I like the game and would give 5 star if I could progress
  30. [R138] 3/5 · US Payed for no ads: I paid for no ads and there is still ads wouldn’t recommend buying it, but it’s very fun and time consuming.
  31. [R26] 1/5 · US Are mohels vampires?: Purchased features, reinstalled and they don’t work. Why isn’t cash collected automatically on level 7? Is the missile tower purchased, only lasts during the subscription period?
  32. [R58] 2/5 · US An okay game…: So I’ve play about 6 hours of the game and thought it was okay. Ads aside, the game feels really bad, after hitting a certain level the game feels like it’s forcing you to pay to win (I also consider watching ads as pay to win because they get revenue from the ads for your time). At level 6 I maxed out 2 rare turrets and still couldn’t pass it without using support items. Support it
  33. [R19] 3/5 · US Issue with free options: When I click on the [free to watch], it doesn't work. Please fix the bug or issues with this app.
  34. [R29] 4/5 · US Need fix: It’s a fun game but I unequiped a weapon to equip some other gun and it won’t let me equip any of my guns
  35. [R249] 3/5 · US Great game, needs music & sound effects: It’s just blan without please fix this
  36. [R10] 4/5 · US Amazing game.: Even has a tutorial for people perfect for people who need to learn how to do it.
