- [R8] Castle Crumble Good but one thing…: It is great but it is to easy and if you lose at every game then this is for you
- [R10] Castle Crumble angry birds, but easier and not angry bird and angry birds average at best: but easier and not angry bird and angry birds average at best. nice graphics and presentation but just not very difficult
- [R11] Castle Crumble Great: Great fun game :)
- [R1] Castle Crumble New update a failure: Installed latest update today and the game will just not fully load. It gets to title screen and pathway try to play and it’s an endless spinning little man at bottom of screen. Please fix.
- [R9] Castle Crumble Okay but un playable: A nice game but whenever I try to play level 6 the screen start’s to shake before the castle load’s and it never stops.
- [R13] Castle Crumble Great, until it goes wrong.: I enjoy the game, but the bugs are getting really tiresome. Every time I open it, I get a message telling me there was an error and asking if I want to allow my personal info to be used in a report. It’s currently not allowing me to play the daily challenge, yet again.
- [R15] Castle Crumble It’s OK: But what’s happened to the graphics? Last time I played this they were sharper and anti aliased, now I’m seeing jaggies everywhere
- [R14] Castle Crumble Best game ever: Really satisfying and no ads enjoyable different looking castles not to difficult not to easy fun also challenges on level 2 free no In app purchases ether
- [R33] Castle Crumble Entertaining and enjoyable I suppose: Really good game overall, just getting a little bit bored of the same thing. Every single round you play, you basically just do the same thing. After 5-10 minutes I eventually get bored of it and log out. Good game for short line waiting, but wouldn’t recommend it as your top game for a long flight.I enjoy it but sometimes get bored. Anyways, This app doesn’t
- [R55] Castle Busters Keeps crashing!!!: I love this game and I’m ranked very high… haven’t paid for a single item yet can easily beat those who have paid for units and items, however… this app keeps crashing and it always does it when your in a battle and your win streak is between 60 and 90 and you lose the streak. Most annoying please fix this as it’s happening a lot since the last couple of updates. Otherwise a mos
- [R56] Castle Busters Pay to win: Good game with an interesting concept but if you are matched against anyone with a “premium” character its an instant loss. Its completely ruins the experience… developers need to fix this
- [R21] Castle Crumble Fun but glitchy: Addictive and fun game but can’t progress past level 360 as the castles don’t load 😅 would continue playing, but can’t. Hopefully fixed in an update.
- [R25] Castle Crumble Great game let down by bugs: The core of this game is fantastic. But there are also some bugs that make it ridiculously frustrating at times. For example, the new conquest mode has one level in the crystal level that you can’t load, it looks like it’s been set to be a conquest mode level but doesn’t have any modifiers, and it crashes the app. Literally no way to complete that challenge. Randomly
- [R64] Castle Busters Fun game except when u play against paid weapons: Fun game to play but if you play against a player that paid for special weapons and you dont have them it is an unfair battle. The developers should change that! Because of that 4 stars only
- [R82] Castle Busters Damn you payers: This game is very fun. However, those who pay for extra characters are so lame. Like it’s not even a competition if you just use laser guy to target all my characters. There’s no skill to what you do and it only proves that you suck so bad you have to buy Armageddon players. I have won 3 out of 10 encounters with those players and it is very satisfying.
- [R89] Castle Busters Pay to win: It’s expected for there to be in app purchases. What doesn’t NEED to happen, is for these purchases to be so outrageously unbalanced. I just came up against someone with fewer trophies than me who could select with pinpoint accuracy where to fire, send a drone to fly over my shield and hover there, then fire a laser which pierced ALL the way through my castle and snipe my units. Also h
- [R51] Castle Busters To many bot’s: Stop allowing bots to play in events it says the bar too high you have to play a crazy amount of games to keep up with them. If you wanna use both in PVP that’s …! just don’t allow them to play in competition/ events it’s not fair. We don’t have that much time in real life to play so many games.
- [R65] Castle Busters Great game to an extent…: Game is great and am hooked, playing for free it’s quite good but I feel that maybe 70/80% of the game pairing is with another bot instead of human, because some of the shots they use or attack you with are completely irrational and only a bot would do it otherwise game keeps you happy keeps you busy, lots of time on it you don’t really have to purchase anything just a sh
- [R66] Castle Busters Ai game: 90% of the game is ai
- [R83] Castle Busters Ai bots / false advertising: The player you think is real ISNT. I’ve done extensive testing on this game and very rarely do you meet an actual human player. The patterns during extensive testing have clearly shown that the ‘players’ are AI bots. TBH they should be and possibly will be sued for false advertising.
