  1. [R5] Zombie Gunship Survival 5/5 · GB ❤️❤️: Amazing game though there is a lot to be added like more guns and stuff but it’s a really good game
  2. [R8] Zombie Gunship Survival 5/5 · GB Just like I'm in a gunship!!!😎: This game just deserves a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating because of its difficulty and really quality as well makes me feel like I'm the gunner in he gunship in my opinion this game could not get worse (they could add some more story missions though!) apart from all of that it's all of that.(I wasn't trying to be funny btw) great game for everyone!😁
  3. [R16] Zombie Gunship Survival 5/5 · GB Great game: Ac130 & hordes of zombies what’s not to like…. Persist with the resources and gold and you’ll level up / gain epic guns cannons and napalm 👍🏼
  4. [R22] Zombie Gunship Survival 5/5 · GB Awesome game, am really loving it.: This game gets better and better the more you level up and get improved weapons. Levels where you get absolutely hammered and think you can surely never complete it, slowly become doable, then later even easy as the weapon load out improves and you better arm your team. This is the best game I’ve ever had on my mobile phone and takes more of my time than I reall
  5. [R1] Zombie Gunship Survival 1/5 · GB Unplayable: Used to be a great game , I picked up again recently but it keeps crashing
  6. [R3] Zombie Gunship Survival 3/5 · GB Game bugs: Everyday without fail, I will get kicked out of the game, part way through an attack, really frustrating, all progress lost and no game rewards
  7. [R4] Zombie Gunship Survival 1/5 · GB Crashes!: Had this game for years. I thought I’d give it another go and it crashes halfway through the intro level every single time! I have tried to reinstall it and the problem still remains!
  8. [R10] Zombie Gunship Survival 1/5 · GB Keeps crashing since the update: I’m probably gonna delete I was really enjoying it as well awful shame
  9. [R6] Zombie Gunship Survival 3/5 · GB Low rewards and game look!: The game is less rewarding from when is was released! The new outlay is worse than what it looked before. Game Level selection all over the place. And the challenge week has low rewards for the grind.
  10. [R7] Zombie Gunship Survival 1/5 · GB Too hard to get through without spending. Dull: Title says it all. Too much hassle to get anything useful enough
  11. [R9] Zombie Gunship Survival 3/5 · GB Mr: It’s very nice game enjoy playing .the graphic is good .The problem is very difficult to upgrade no weapons . And when you buy a box as example to get a four-star open you get disappointed I hope this can be fixed .
  12. [R12] Zombie Gunship Survival 3/5 · GB Crates: I’ve been playing this game for a while now. All the presents in the crates have gone rubbish lately
  13. [R40] Zombie Gunship Survival 5/5 · GB Awesome game!: Brilliant game, wish it was slightly easier earning scrap for upgrading buildings!
  14. [R42] Zombie Gunship Survival 5/5 · GB Upgrades: We need more levels and guns. Very repetitive levels. To upgrade an weapon to 4 or 5 star it’s impossible because you need at least another four 5 star guns. And crates do really give you rubbish weapons. Crates should be better, and please more levels, and maybe online playing?
  15. [R54] Left to Survive 2/5 · US Support game controllers: Support game controllers
  16. [R80] Left to Survive 3/5 · GB Controller support: Request backbone controller support
  17. [R87] Left to Survive 4/5 · US Controller Support: Please add controller support to this game
  18. [R97] Left to Survive 5/5 · US Little request.: Please turn this game So I can play it with my backbone. Thank you.
  19. [R19] Zombie Gunship Survival 5/5 · GB Best Mobile Game: Reasons this game is good : no ads
  20. [R57] Left to Survive 2/5 · US Fun game, destroyed by ads and p2w mechanics: The core game is fun, you get slammed with ads probably every 2 minutes. Your power level will never be high enough and you won’t have enough med kits because you’ll need to spend money. Cannot enjoy the game with how much they push pop up windows on you. Also 9.99 a month is ridiculous for ad removal. That should be a one time thing.
  21. [R75] Left to Survive 1/5 · US Ads, Ads: This game could be fun, but you get to play for 20 seconds, then have to fight you away through repetitive ads. After every round of pay you have to wait for an ad to play long enough for you to dismiss it 3 or 4 times. The game is also set up, to if you want to be competitive, you have pay. They don't reward you enough for completing states. Finally had to delete the game.
  22. [R13] Zombie Gunship Survival 1/5 · GB Therapy?: I’ve dropped my rating because as other reviewers have already said they really start taking the piss with trying to advance without buying crates etc. You can’t improve your rating unless you either play constantly and/or shell out money.
  23. [R14] Zombie Gunship Survival 4/5 · GB Zombie Gunship: Been playing this for years. Absolutely love it but just spent £90 on this and still not managed to get the Shockwave gun 😏 so getting past some of the more difficult levels seem almost impossible.
  24. [R23] Zombie Gunship Survival 5/5 · GB Moan: Moan moan ,it’s a free game ! ,I’ve played this right from the start,I’ve not spent a penny on this and I’m loving it ,now level 27 and still blowing zombies to hell ,it just gets better with ever update ,please keep up the good work
