  1. [R8] Uboat Attack 5/5 · US What happened to race for glory and sharpshooter games?: I loved the race for glory and sharpshooter games but they have been absent for about a week? I hate defend the fleet and will not play it. If the race and sharpshooter games don’t come back I will not be playing this game. 6/25/26 this is an update. This game has improved greatly. I can now avoid “defend the fleet” and continue playing. T
  2. [R20] Uboat Attack 5/5 · US The state of the game: This is an entertaining game that I have spent many hours playing The only criticism I have is the game doesn't really evolve after a certain point The enemy really becomes predictable and you can lose interest
  3. [R40] Uboat Attack 2/5 · US Decent game.: It’s a ok game. At 1st it’s a pretty fun game however it goes down hill fast. Lots of ads. And you play the same levels over and over. It’d be nice for some updates to play new content.
  4. [R7] Uboat Attack 2/5 · US Level 24 6: When I get to this level, this game became no fun hard to win at that level. No chance too many people shooting at you. Don’t waste the time downloading this game. You’ll get frustrated. Can’t dive your submarine to get out of trouble.
  5. [R35] Uboat Attack 5/5 · US Felicitando: Es un juego, divertido, fácil de ejecutar, estratégico
  6. [R38] Uboat Attack 5/5 · US Fun game: Quit to learn, easy to play
  7. [R50] Uboat Attack 5/5 · US Ok: Nice and easy
  8. [R9] Uboat Attack 3/5 · US I wish it we’re better: I really like the game but unfortunately it cuts out in the middle of game play, not just once in a while, every single time you play, it cuts out and you have to start over. It’s impossible to play in competition. I’m beginning to think it’s set up this way to make you watch ads repeatedly so they earn money on your wasted time.😡
  9. [R25] Uboat Attack 1/5 · US Waste of time: Points disappear, ridiculous Amount of ads, ads don’t even run right and crash the game..don’t waste time with this one.
  10. [R43] Uboat Attack 2/5 · US Lost my game: Lost my complete game after months of watching commercials to play and get somewhere in the game. Opened my phone to play one day and the game reset to a beginner stage and not with my name.
  11. [R49] Uboat Attack 2/5 · US Game started over.: Played the game for months. Last time a day or two ago. Now it shows a new game like the first time playing. All my game money gone. What happened.
  12. [R1] Uboat Attack 2/5 · US Eh. . .: WAY TOO MANY ADDS FOR ADVANCEMENTS
  13. [R3] Uboat Attack 3/5 · US Boat Attack: Too many ads and too difficult to get rid of them
  14. [R10] Uboat Attack 1/5 · US Too many ads: Too many ads
  15. [R13] Uboat Attack 1/5 · US Not worth the time: You have to go through so many adds before you can even start the game. It’d be a fun game to play if you could actually PLAY!!
  16. [R55] Uboat Attack 2/5 · US Game crashes/restarts: I’m removing app after the third time screen goes to what looks like total fog then restarts loosing all gains and starts me as new player. I’ve contacted support, no response. Flushed 👎
  17. [R6] Uboat Attack 3/5 · US Fix the Ads: Have been playing this game for quite a while and yes, though rewards have changed and the ads become more frequent and longer I’m willing to put up with that in order to play for free. What’s happening now is ads that run do not end or are framed in a way that you’re unable to find the X logo to close the ad. You can’t rotate the game as it plays in landscape so the only option is t
  18. [R66] 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
  19. [R4] 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.
  20. [R18] Uboat Attack 3/5 · US AD Free Version does not stop ads!: The game is fun and graphics are good, but paying $5.99 for the ad-free version does not stop ads! They are riduculously long videos and no way to close them out.
  21. [R42] Uboat Attack 3/5 · US Great game, but ads didn’t go away after purchase: I really enjoy this game - it’s fun and well-made. However, I made an in-app purchase because it says any purchase removes ads, but they’re still showing. I restarted, reinstalled, and logged back in, but nothing changed. I like the game and want to support it, but this feels misleading. Please fix this issue or clarify how to remove the ads.
  22. [R73] 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.
