  1. [R2] Castle Wreck 4/5 · GB Ads same old castles: Ads galore and same old castles from varying angles . And why all the reviews 5 snd even 6 years old? Has everyone got bored and stopped playing ? Come on Admin .. LISTEN to us READ the reviews
  2. [R3] Castle Wreck 3/5 · GB Not bad: Game is quite nice, best thing is how satisfying it is to hit the right place and see the unfolding devastation, however, it is often cut short! You cannot replay a level you did not get all three stars on and often the level finishes before you have completed your cannonball carnage of your opponent! Biggest issue is the never ending adverts!!! EVERY SINGLE ROUND! You spend more time wat

  8. [R10] Castle Wreck 1/5 · GB ENOUGH WITH THE ADS: Every lvl there is an ad tho u give us the option to watch one for a reward for coins SO WHY ARE YOU FORCING US TO WATCH AN AD ANYWAY and u cant play the game offline either why are you so greedy, this game was fine for me for over 6 years until recently now it’s trash and unplayable

  10. [R18] Castle Wreck 3/5 · GB Broken coding: An alright game for a few hours. Sadly some of the ads break the game - they just freeze it dead and the only action to take is exit the game and open the app again , and play until the next advert breaks it again. Happens even in strong wifi areas and with several different adverts

  13. [R43] Castle Wreck 1/5 · GB No Ads is a rip off: Bought no ads about 8 months ago. Re-downloaded, purchase won’t re-instate. Deleted. Apple should refund asap.
