1. [R12] 5/5 · US Greatest game of all time: I had this game for more than 10 years love it 👌🏾
2. [R17] 4/5 · US The best: I really love this game its a Awesome game fun to play. 👍🥇🏆
3. [R30] 5/5 · US The only game I still played since 2014: I really enjoyed playing this game, I even paid $9.99 every month just to get my troops training ready, so I don't have to wait.
4. [R71] 5/5 · US My favorite iOS, game of all time.: I have been playing this game for probably 12+ years. It has grown in many facets, but it always comes back to the group dynamic in the task forces as well as the day-to-day challenges. I really really appreciate that I do not have to sit through ads.
5. [R8] 5/5 · US Best game ever: I really enjoyed this,i love upgrade my base
6. [R109] 5/5 · US This game is GREAT: This game, of course being similar to Clash of Clans is actually really good and original. I think the mechanic of have to place your units on a specific point and not anywhere in the map is sophisticated.
7. [R19] 5/5 · US ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: Why do I have to explain myself for the 5 stars, I’m sure it’s obvious, this game is amazing
8. [R84] 5/5 · US 100💯 recommend: I don’t even play games like that. I don’t even play games on my console but I can play this game for hours. No one paid me to say this. I never even leave reviews on anything. That’s how good this game is this game is so slept on. If you’re the one that likes to grind anything in life, you will love this.
9. [R29] 5/5 · US One of the best: It is so fun
10. [R5] 1/5 · US Unplayable: Unable to even boot into the app. Stuck in an account disabled loop on iOS. Messages support with zero response. Games toast if you can’t even start a new account up.
11. [R18] 1/5 · US Latest update crashes after update 62.80: Game once was fun. Now too much. Have latest iPhone 17 pro max. Game loads. I see my village. I click anything and game crashes. Oh well. Supercell ruined another game.
12. [R41] 1/5 · US Crashing on iPhone 15 may 2026: Constantly crashing
13. [R44] 1/5 · US Constantly Crashing: The game is unplayable right now. It constantly crashes. Reinstall only resolves the issue temporarily.
14. [R1] 1/5 · US Don’t bother: Game is designed where u drop In and instantly become feeder for players 20 levels higher than you. Makes it super annoying. Doesn’t help I had an account when the game came out and the useless auto support can’t find it. 0/10 do not waste your time
15. [R6] 1/5 · US Always attacked by super powers: The game isn’t fun anymore. My base always gets attacked by somebody with 5 or 10 times my power so I’m constantly obliterated, sometimes twice a day. Never attacked by an enemy near my own strength. What idiot dreamed up this kind of matched warfare? I’d like to delete my game and start over from zero but there seems to be no way to do so. I really enjoyed th
16. [R22] 1/5 · US ehh: the game is awesome but the matchmaking was designed by an idiot.
17. [R50] 1/5 · US MATCHMAKING FIX!: Y’know, I would’ve thought in the decade supercell has had this game that they’d finally fix the matchmaking system. I was actually glad returning to the game and seeing bases I can ACTUALLY beat. Spoke too soon. Tell me how being a level 63 base being matched up against level 80+ bases make sense? Hmm? Make it make sense. Your matchmaking system has been what’s turned so many pe
18. [R3] 4/5 · US Great but the resource costs become absurd: At around level 19 the cost to upgrade buildings becomes too absurd to manage so it needs a rework.
19. [R11] 2/5 · US Money GRAB: I’ve always enjoyed playing the game. But the last year or so has turned into a money grad. It’s impossible to advance in the game without investing a significant amount of cash.
20. [R14] 1/5 · US Pay to play: I have played boom beach since it’s inception. They have joined the pay to play club recently. Not to mention the time you have to commit to even stay up in the game. Very disappointing. I would not waste my time on this. The past was fun. No more
21. [R15] 1/5 · US Game used to be simple and fun: I have played this game since it first was released. It used to be a great way to simply have some fun without having to put too much effort into managing it. I am sorry to say that now it has become overly complicated and difficult to advance unless you pay. Due to those reasons I am giving it a one star rating. It’s a shame that the developers have done this.
22. [R20] 1/5 · US Not fun anymore, read the most recent reviews: Every update it gets worse, they just can’t leave it alone constantly going for a money grab they can’t help it. Way too complicated. it’s just not fun anymore. Hammerman is impossible anymore
23. [R25] 1/5 · US Too much change: Ok, engravings were good. I wasn’t too sure about gadgets and leaders. Now Feeding bunkers. What I’ve lost track of how many currencies we have. I’ve been playing since the beginning. DX is no challenge. I might have ha enough. Headquarters 29 might be great but I might not see it.
24. [R43] 1/5 · US Way too confusing: They have added so much stuff that adds zero fun and more confusion. This game is no longer enjoyable.
25. [R95] 3/5 · US Jumped the shark: It’s a good game but the newest updates with squad leaders and gadgets is too much, wish they’d get go back
26. [R4] 1/5 · US Do something Apple store? and leave the people lose the money and leave the company is stealing .: Until now in the day, July 5, 2026 they don’t return my account they give it to the thief When I want to play in this year Before from 2025 when I write in supercell ID, I see my flag in supercell ID Ukraine someone steal my supercell ID when I connect to the Games, I see my Level one where is my old
27. [R35] 1/5 · US Don’t bother with their customer support…: If you switch from android to iPhone, make sure you make an account with supercell because they won’t recover your account. My account was maxed. Now it’s gone. Guess I’m done with this game. Their customer support seems to be completely automated, probably a bot or AI. No way to get ahold of a person. They don’t care about their customers. Read other 1
28. [R10] 1/5 · US Lost materials: Before the last couple up dates I had a number chests of gold, lumber, stone, and silver. They are no longer there. What happen? I spent money buying these.
29. [R24] 3/5 · US A changed Boom Beach: After the last few updates I noticed I lost many resources. Maybe be still around but losing the resource to fill the resource bucket definitely changed play. Add to that when attacking in some special contests the opposing team has things like 500,000 health or very high damage abilities. In the past it was enjoyable and challenging, now it’s not worth the time, effort or mo
30. [R39] 1/5 · US What the hell: My game as just went back to the very beginning what the hell
31. [R55] 1/5 · US Mr: My money isn’t generating, is that part of the new update? It’s been more than a week and all I got was $7000
32. [R327] 3/5 · GB Glitchy and full of errors: Was great but now…. It started with fully upgraded tanks being reset to level 1. Now it’s missions like Hammerman freezing at level 4 or 5.. Fix the glitches and test them!!
33. [R329] 3/5 · GB Bugged: I have been playing boom beach for years, however for the past month Hammerman on the hunt is bugged at level 26…4 weeks in a row now, have to reduce difficulty to finish. Multiple players have same issue but not resolved…time to move on I think…
34. [R334] 3/5 · GB Update glitch: Loved this game until recent update. Now can’t get past level 3 of Hammerman Strikes back.
35. [R36] 1/5 · US Ad system is broken: You can not close 99% of the ads, you have to actually close the app and then you don’t get the rewards. Seems kind of scammy to me.
36. [R68] 3/5 · US Wango: Spend more time with ads than playing game. Enjoy playing the game but give me a break so many ads.
37. [R262] 3/5 · GB Too many adverts and offers: I do enjoy playing this game and love all of the new updates within the game. However, with all of the adverts/ offers that pop is seriously affecting the overall experience and enjoyment of the game. There should be an option on whether you see these adverts/ offers etc. or not. I think this would improve the game and stop it from crashing mid game. Also I would like
38. [R7] 1/5 · US Hackers: Can y’all do something about these hackers please. I’ve been griefed by hackers twice today and there’s no way in game to report it at all. Please add a way to report hackers and ban these guys off the game. Thanks
39. [R34] 1/5 · US Trash: Cheating algorithm makes it impossible to win
40. [R40] 1/5 · US Cheaters: They are bots not real players
41. [R64] 2/5 · US Warship: A bunch grown boys who created this game . Will outright take your wins , and use coded slurs because you beat them . Good game but terrible people behind the scenes. The admins are no better because they have automated reporting responses. Now they’ve took it off so that you can’t complain about cheating 😂 too funny . Who creates a game and get man because you beat them .
42. [R16] 3/5 · US Improvements: Takes too long to build bases and costs too much to upgrade troops. The instant troop revive needs to stay all the time as well.
43. [R74] 3/5 · US Too long: It takes forever to upgrade anything and it costs a ton for it - it was a better game with immediate troop build. At least you have a chance - played a long time ago and came back and you could see how everything was priced higher and longer.
44. [R91] 3/5 · US Rapidez para jugar: Dañaron el juego con la forma instante de tener las tropas lista para jugar y no tener que esperar tanto tiempo para jugar mientras se preparan, es mucho tiempo esperar más de 15 minutos para que estén listas eso que las tropas sencillas las más duras demoran hasta más de 30 minutos, la cagan
45. [R172] 4/5 · US Latest update - resources: Really fun game, the latest update has removed coins and wood from the Trader, and replaced with “cards” Don’t make the game too difficult to upgrade the improvements. If too difficult to scale up, reduces game plan. I have played the game way less since the most recent update. Oh well
46. [R28] 3/5 · US Things are not explained accurately.: There are a number of new updates every so often that make it interesting. BUT what does that mean and how do I use it to be better. Getting chests with really good items never happens. It is the same old same old.
47. [R76] 4/5 · US Fix matchmaking!: Great game, been playing it for years! The matchmaking for opponents is making the game unplayable. I understand it is somewhat based off the victory points, but I am a level 54 and can’t get another player on my map under a level 72! It is what made me stop playing the game in the past and unfortunately making me lose interest in it again. I stopped buying the instant troop trai
