  9. [R36] Drone Strike Military War 3D 3/5 · US Broken: I keep getting updates about bug fixes but they are not fixed. 1: When I watch a video and go back to play, the sound is gone. If I want the sound to come on then I have to close the game completely and reopen. 2: when you watch a video to get the free hammers, they do not show up. 3: after a round is over, I do not get the full amount of hammers. If it says I get say 150 hammers I get way
  10. [R39] Drone Strike Military War 3D 3/5 · US Not bad but needs more fixing and no ads: I like the game its very addictive but it has too many ads and makes me wanna not play it anymore and after couple rounds there is no sounds because of the ads poping up too much the ads make the sound of the game go away please make the game better and thank you
  11. [R3] Drone Strike Military War 3D 3/5 · US Ads take over: An obnoxious amount of ads that run for too long to enjoy this game.
  12. [R7] Drone Strike Military War 3D 2/5 · US Ads: Fun game but the same ad after every screen. Just tired of seeing the same ad over and over. Care
  13. [R12] Drone Strike Military War 3D 3/5 · US Good game but to much Adds: Every screen change is a fricking add
  14. [R13] Drone Strike Military War 3D 1/5 · US Garbage: Garbage graphics to many ads
  15. [R42] Drone Strike Military War 3D 3/5 · US Does not save once offloaded or deleted: If you care about keeping your data, don’t delete the game. I needed storage and deleted it but recently decided to install it back, and everything I had is gone. Pretty annoying. Other than that the game is fine just wish it actually saved data like other games do
  16. [R16] Drone Strike Military War 3D 1/5 · US Ads every 15 seconds don’t install: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^*
  17. [R66] War Drone 3/5 · US Decent game: This is a fun game it’s just if your not ready to pay to win ur going to spend a lot of time grinding it out after level 10 the game gets awfully boring and kinda gets old quick replaying the same missions over and over just so u can level up enough to move onto the next level just to hit another plato and now u have to grind it out again wish the developers could let it rely on skill
  18. [R79] War Drone 1/5 · US So many adds you’ll die trying to beat L2: The worst add and pay for play game ever. Don’t download not worth your time. Can’t win on L2 without buying more upgrades
  19. [R94] War Drone 1/5 · US Money Pit: The game is incredibly fun, but the more you advance the more money you need to spend to pass the increasingly hard levels. It is truly impossible to pass certain levels if you are strictly playing for free. I really enjoyed playing, but quit after playing one level over a hundred times and no end in sight. Now if I wanted to spend $100 then there would be no issue getting past just tha
  20. [R96] War Drone 3/5 · US Pay to play: The game is fun, but it’s a pay to play game. Each level increases to a difficulty that makes you suffer if you don’t pay. Example after level 6 you experience certain vehicles that can’t be destroyed that you could a couple levels before without having to buy more upgrades. The targets and vehicles become so spongy that there’s no way to destroy them without having out having to buy
  21. [R83] War Drone 4/5 · US Weekly pass is annoying: The weekly pass is highly annoying why 7.99 a week times that by 4 or 52 this game ain’t worth that much a week even tho it is enjoyable talk about blind robbery do the math
  22. [R86] War Drone 4/5 · US Good fun but VIP is way too expensive.: My only gripe would be that the VIP subscription which gets you a few extra benefits is $8 a WEEK! That’s $35 a month. Can’t do that.
