  1. [R1] Crush Them All 1/5 · US What’s Going On: I’ve been on the game for years, but it’s not working recently. It constantly fails to load, and the people in my guild are having the same issues. Really sucks for those of us who have been here a long time, but I can’t help feeling like the new owners don’t want the game around anymore.
  2. [R3] Crush Them All 3/5 · US Issues: This game is really fun and I’ve been playing it for years, but semi recently the game has been lagging to the point where it’s unplayable whenever the has an event, and usually its like this for 3-5 days, making me miss most of the event usually, but usually when this happens, they will give you a few Hundred flooz in compensation, so overall, this game is really good with a few issues th
  3. [R4] Crush Them All 1/5 · US Connection issues every day….: I have been on this app for at least 4 years; however, during the last year, I have been getting “connection issue” or “requires wifi” almost every day I try to login. I have spent real cash in this app, so I’m trying not to quit.
  4. [R16] Crush Them All 1/5 · US New update crashes: The most recent update causes the game to crash every few minutes
  5. [R2] Crush Them All 5/5 · US So fun: All I gotta say is this game is tuff
  6. [R11] Crush Them All 5/5 · US Fun: I like it because its really simple and easy to play if you just want to have fun play it its really easy and if you have nothing to do
  7. [R14] Crush Them All 5/5 · US Good game: Honestly great game. Totally recommend!!
  8. [R17] Crush Them All 5/5 · US Addicting: I throughly enjoy team building gars and this one has a lot of dynamics to it and a large selection of heroes. It creates a very diverse atmosphere from player to player.
  9. [R15] Crush Them All 3/5 · US Must spend a lot of money for new features: This game is great! Lots of fun and simple to navigate. It takes a while to get your power level up but if you’re patient you can get there. You don’t need to spend money but can if you want to help progress faster. This is absolutely fine in my opinion. They don’t force you to watch ads, but you can get currency if you do. They recently added a feature
  10. [R21] Crush Them All 3/5 · US N: God but to many people paying to win
  11. [R23] Crush Them All 4/5 · US Wish there was more free items Im the shop…: First of all I love the game I’ve been playing for 6d now, but having to pay for small boots is kinda annoying I can’t get as far as I want because of p2w, if there’s more f2p content for this game I’d give it a 5 star rating but overall love the gameplay.
  12. [R42] Crush Them All 3/5 · GB Devs have swapped and these gave up: Been playing nearly. 6 years and since it was sold to another company it’s a cash grab and I feel sorry for newer players never been able to catch up. It’s run by far too few people so updates and bugs become troublesome. At the same time it’s a good game from the ground up when it was first made, the new features are good if you’re not as idle as it says you
  13. [R12] Crush Them All 3/5 · US Guild Death: This game cuts off access to new guild members. My guild is down to 3 active players with no hope of getting more. Great game otherwise.
  14. [R34] Crush Them All 1/5 · US Oh my: I love how all the good reviews are from along time ago with the first creators. once upon this game actually had good creators and this game was incredible, then it got destroyed. They took away the world chat which was my favorite part of the game. There’s tons of hackers, weird mini games, they even stopped letting people join guilds for the time being, weird stuff going on, not worth it
  15. [R37] Crush Them All 1/5 · US Greed and incompetence: The new owners Imperia Online are well know for their greed and misleading the players. I've been playing for well over 2 years on Android and enjoyed the game and the guild chat. Since Imperia took over almost everyone has left. My guild always had 30 members and now there's 2. No one has joined the guild in over 3 months. Don't waste your time with Imperia Online and thei
  16. [R45] Crush Them All 3/5 · GB Alright game, needs reworking.: The games alright. Plays well and working within a guild is fun. Problems; In pvp arena and blitz. A team half your power can probably defeat you. Most guilds in the recent event to gain trophies weren’t counted. Team doesn’t seem to take complaints seriously. Auction house is over priced. Drop rate for new armour pieces is abysmal.
  17. [R8] Crush Them All 5/5 · US Can’t restart: I’m trying to delete my account so I can restart because I reinstalled it and I want to start over but even at 00 it still says cancel deletion I love the game but I want to restart
  18. [R13] Crush Them All 2/5 · US Needs update: I love the game, but it’s been forever since I’ve played, I installed it 3 weeks ago and did the whole delete the account thing so I could restart fresh. And once it reaches the 0 seconds left mark after the 14 day waiting period, it just stopped, so I waited all day today and tried seeing if that did anything, it was still at 0 seconds. It doesn’t let you delete your progress so you
  19. [R7] Crush Them All 1/5 · US It’s like they’re trying to ruin the game: I’m a 6 year player about 50/50 paid and f2p over the years. It has always been my favorite IDLE game. But the original owners sold it to a new company and let me tell you, they haven’t made one beneficial player decision since. It’s almost like they sit around and actively try to make the worst possible decision for the game, and they update it with n
  20. [R61] Ulala 2/5 · US PLZ Fix: I had spent $50 between 4 characters for ssn, used 1.2k pearls for tickets to push higher in world rank for ssn. When I had used said tickets for sweep I had gained no higher ranking and lost out on the pearls.. IMO Needs to be fixed if cash in involved.
  21. [R76] Ulala 1/5 · US Pay to win AI slop: Exactly as the title says. They use AI and if you don’t pay thousands a month you’re going to fall behind.
  22. [R97] Ulala 1/5 · US Way too much Pay to Win: If you don’t plan on spending money don’t bother, even if you do manage to make into the top 10 someone who spends money will always replace you in a team.
  23. [R103] Ulala 1/5 · US Find another game: Another pay 2 win garage game
  24. [R63] Ulala 3/5 · US Too Competitive: This is a very fun game and I would have stuck with it if I could. But it doesn’t seem like there are any casual players who are in it for the fun time. I can’t count how many times I’ve been kicked from a party or told that I wasn’t taking it seriously just because I can’t be on at all hours of the day because of my irl life and job. I like the art style and the game mechanics as
  25. [R66] Ulala 3/5 · US Could be fun: Could be a fun and addicting game. I mean it really is already, but if you don’t play 24/7 and spend money on the game no one will pick you up for a team and without a team you can’t progress. The community can be pretty toxic most of the time. The game itself is cool but not new player friendly with a community that doesn’t make you wanna stay.
  26. [R70] Ulala 1/5 · US Horrible Support: Users can openly speak sexually and talk about racist topics and nothing happens. I tried to report multiple players for sexual conversation and racist conversations and support just said “block them” and closed the tickets. I guess as long as you pay you can say and do what you want. I did like the game at first but I won’t ever spend money in the game and won’t be playing too
  27. [R81] Ulala 3/5 · US Atrocious Community: I played this game years ago but ended up uninstalling it due to the rampant insults, curses, and slurs; however, I recently reinstalled Ulala after seeing an ad that features new and polished mechanics. However, the first thing I see upon downloading the game in 2025 is a wall of racist, sexist, and abhorrent comments. If the devs aren’t going to tighten censorship, they shou
  28. [R22] Crush Them All 2/5 · US Don’t try and restart: I tried to restart and now I can’t play the game I’m am stuck in a frozen screen
  29. [R49] Crush Them All 1/5 · US Trash game: This game is so bad. I downloaded it back a while ago (15 days) and i tryed to delete my account (i have to wait 14 days for some dumb reason) when it was ready geuss what? It didnt delete. You devs are just lazy and i hope this game goes bankrupt
