  1. [R1] You Sunk 1/5 · US Powerups: Game now is attempting to force me to buy powerups. I used to play a lot without buying the powerups. I guess if I have to wait too long I will quit playing and find another game to play
  2. [R9] You Sunk 3/5 · US New Update Made It Complicated…: The new update tried to improve the game, I can appreciate that. A graphics overhaul, redesigned gameplay, new ships, and new enemies. It’s not working right, though. The upgrades for the new ships are as extremely expensive as the original ship was, and coins still take far too long to farm. The redesigned torpedo shot slightly changed the all-important timing pla
  3. [R13] You Sunk 1/5 · US Another Great Game RUINED: Well, I thought it was going to be fun; however, DEVELOPER GREED has ruined another game. Before you even play the game, they’re trying to hit you up for a subscription. Every 5 seconds they are trying to squeeze nickels out of you to the point it’s not even fun. This is to be expected, -game developers won’t settle for selling their game for a one time fair price.
  4. [R18] You Sunk 3/5 · GB What could have been a gem of a game has been taken hostage of greed.: 1. From the get go, any game which has an “energy” system where you can only play a few games bet hour already looses a rating. It’s a feeble attempt at making money but ends up in me not wanting to support the company. 2. Constant micro transactions and ads. I get it - you guys need to make your bag, but you should realise tha
  5. [R3] You Sunk 3/5 · US Navy blood: AIDS way too long !!
  6. [R4] You Sunk 1/5 · US Sargejack95: Reload time too slow Need faster reload time
  7. [R6] You Sunk 3/5 · US was 2/5 not good frustrating … but i’ve noticed the devs always respond so 3/5: ok at first had promise and I only played it to get some money but then I realized I would have to beat 300 levels which to be fair was stated up front but would have been frustrating since the controls that weren’t too sensitive at first soon became so when the game gets harder and usually not a problem I like a chall
  8. [R10] You Sunk 1/5 · US This is like Battle Ship board game.: This review is for the new way of playing You Sunk that was available when I opened the app this morning. When I started the game I noticed it had changed to a Battle Ship board game style. I wanted to play the old style, shooting torpedoes, but couldn’t find a way to go back to the old style game. I played it once and do not like it. Now the game is just a g
  9. [R47] You Sunk 1/5 · US New changes: Your new changes are horrible I will no longer play this game unless it goes back to the way it use to be
  10. [R15] You Sunk 3/5 · US Score Not Sticking: For some reason my score keeps resetting to 0. It used to retain My last score. The coin amount is retained, but not my previous score. Please advise. Thanks.
  11. [R16] You Sunk 2/5 · US When hitting a fuel vessel when friendly ships are mot there: When I shot a normal torpedo at a fuel ship it exploded but a hospital ship sinked further away from the blast
  12. [R19] You Sunk 1/5 · US Game not working: Used to be able to play the game but now it won’t even update and I get booted from the game
  13. [R21] You Sunk 3/5 · GB Gone down-hill: This used to be gem of a game, but since the last update with the fancy explosions, it’s now developed some bugs. When you hit a large ship in the middle, it explodes and vanishes, however it now seems to be invisible. You can still see the red blip on the radar. This means you now have to hit what is in essence a cloaked ship. Also the power ups don’t continue work once activ
  14. [R24] You Sunk 3/5 · GB Alright: Fun but a little bit boring wasn't what I expected
  15. [R25] You Sunk 1/5 · US Too many interruptions: Getting worst
  16. [R41] You Sunk 2/5 · US You Sunk: Great game but enjoyment is compromised by incessant requests for reviews and $ purchases interrupting GAME PLAY.
  17. [R49] You Sunk 1/5 · US Great game very similar to the arcade game from years ago. Sea Wolf: It would be a better game if a player got a chance to shoot at ships instead of constantly shooting at tornadoes. So therefore this is a very frustrating game.👎🏻
  18. [R51] Uboat Attack 2/5 · US Eh. . .: WAY TOO MANY ADDS FOR ADVANCEMENTS
  19. [R53] Uboat Attack 3/5 · US Boat Attack: Too many ads and too difficult to get rid of them
  20. [R54] Uboat Attack 1/5 · US Ad free is a lie don’t waste your money: Gameplay is repetative and if there are that many ads in the first rounds it’s going to only get worse, purchasing ad free for $6 did nothing to diminish the ads. 0 stars would not recommend, scammy.
  21. [R55] Uboat Attack 4/5 · US Long time player: It’s a pretty good app with over 8500 wins but the game has glitches and won’t let you watch the video as payment quite a bit lately and can get repetitive on the number of scenarios that you can play
  22. [R65] Modern Warships 1/5 · US Disappointing overall: The app takes forever to load, and that’s with a new iPhone on fast WiFi. Don’t waste your time or data - avoid subpar apps like this.
  23. [R66] Modern Warships 5/5 · US Great game: The game is very good! Modern ships, helicopters, aircraft’s….amazing!!! Thank you dear developers. Please don’t stop and continue to support this game many thanks in advance
  24. [R67] Modern Warships 3/5 · US Very Good Game: Nice game and good graphics i love the music but the thing is the mods DONT do their job. The mods banned me for ONE DAY in chat because of asking which ship is better… BUT the mods dont ban people who say bad things to others. Dev if your see this your moderators are NOT DOING THEIR JOB! ( im so mad rn)…
  25. [R69] Modern Warships 5/5 · US Better log in: Can you add a QR code in the PC game and scan the PC version of the game QR code in the mobile game to log in to my account on the computer
  26. [R79] Sea War 1/5 · US Bad: Horrible
  27. [R80] Sea War 5/5 · US Scam: This app pays players in certain zones to promote in game purchases. They do this by sabotaging efforts of other members that cause significant damage and require repairs. It is encouraged for players to then buy.game packs to repair the damage caused by a game collaborator. This is an unfair and deceptive trade practice.
  28. [R81] Sea War 3/5 · US Game play: Unless you’re willing to spend a lot of money to make upgrades and buy new equipment, you will never be able to compete in open battles with other servers.
  29. [R82] Sea War 1/5 · US Not even remotely close to a submarine game: This game is just some over complicated money grab game. It has nothing to do with what it advertises
  30. [R93] High Seas Hero 1/5 · US Game is now unsupported: Company delisted game from their official website, they are instead focusing on Kingshot and Whiteout Survival. The company moderators have been absent for months. No more weekly gift codes. No more updates or news of updates. Complete silence. Same tired in game events recycled over and over. The game is obviously in maintenance mode.
  31. [R94] High Seas Hero 4/5 · US Cool game: I liked the ship to plane combat mechanics especially when they had the same mechanic
  32. [R95] High Seas Hero 3/5 · US A joke: Nothing to any of it. Is too easy like the app has another use other than entertainment. Probably data mining
  33. [R96] High Seas Hero 1/5 · US Cash grab: Don’t get into this game. It’s fun the first maybe half a day to day. Then the only way to get power is by spending an ungodly amount of money. It’s a cash grab
  34. [R107] Fleet Battle 1/5 · US Far too many cheaters: Developer won’t even allow potential hackers to be reported. There is no way some of these players are that lucky. I could care less of how the ships layout is. Was fun but just ridiculous now. If you don’t care about being hacked 25% of the time this game is for you.
  35. [R108] Fleet Battle 5/5 · US Battleships: It is very alike to the game of battleships
  36. [R109] Fleet Battle 3/5 · US Fun Game But Paralyzing Ads: The game is great, but every two battles or so you are forced to watch lengthy ads for other games that you can never click out of. This means you are constantly closing the app and opening it again to continue play. This is the lamest user experience ever!
  37. [R110] Fleet Battle 1/5 · US Do not waste your time: Game is full of bots. Especially SALVO mode, do not waste your time. The amount of ads alone pisses you off. You will not win, the game will force a tie on you. Giant money grab. Do not do it
  38. [R71] Modern Warships 1/5 · US Poor performance and P2W: The game is cool in some aspects and the models are good but the game is nearly unplayable when im fighting higher level ships. I routinely had my games crash mid match. The game is also extremely P2W and almost all the good stuff has to be paid for. While you can play F2P you will not be able to get things from the artcon store. Also after not playing for a couple months
  39. [R74] Modern Warships 1/5 · US The main battle pass: Locking majority of the items in the battle pass when they used to free is ridiculous this new battle pass system is a rip off and a cash grab. This just makes it even more difficult for people to enjoy the game and stay competitive without spending money when every other event pretty much already requires you to spend money already the bp used to be a kind of equalizer and t
  40. [R76] Modern Warships 1/5 · US Favors people that spend money!: I love the first 2 ranks in this game! The problem on it is that they’re only 12-15 ships that you can buy with money that you earn from IN GAME!! The game offers many ships to play, but you can only play 9 of them that are NOT aircraft carriers or subs. It’s ridiculous that you can only play around 9 ships when you hit rank 3. I wouldn’t mind if they cost a lot mo
  41. [R78] Modern Warships 1/5 · US If you spend money then you are powerful: I don’t want to buy powerful missiles with real money. If you’re only powerful because you spend money, that’s a stupid concept.
  42. [R77] Modern Warships 5/5 · US Quality: The game is really good I played it for a good hour and I already got to level ten just 6 more levels away from level 16 so I can do air combat and I love the quality it’s real good try the game!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
  43. [R106] High Seas Hero 1/5 · US Dead scam: Played for almost a year it’s all fake no updates abusive to players . Everyone quit
