1. [R6] Alien Invasion 3/5 · US Great game, one problem.: So I have played this game for years, and never had a problem with it……until they added demons, so you see here this is a problem fpr me because im no longer allowed to play it, because of the demons, and this is a alien game so i dont understand, but besides that gameplay is great, and fun to play while on long car rides
2. [R20] Alien Invasion 4/5 · US Alien Invasion review: First try it was difficult to Navigate the moves of the alien but it’s not difficult to Learn from hands on experience., the Game isn’t overly complicated and is entertaining I haven’t deleted the app so All is Well.
3. [R33] Alien Invasion 3/5 · US Misleading ads strike again: Ad makes this game seem like it’s just so easy to advance. Well it is not. This game gets boring very quickly.
4. [R38] Alien Invasion 5/5 · US Fun and simple: Great time waster and it does a good job keeping ya playing, only have a little time on it but keeps me coming back and ads so far are only if you want to fast track stuff or get more of XYZ
5. [R3] Alien Invasion 3/5 · US Used to enjoy it, it got horribly worse.: I played it way early on. Back when there was an in game suggestion box. When it was small and new and ads weren’t required for progression. They would give you bonus stuff for watching ads sure but it was your choice to watch them or not. Technically it’s still “only ads if you allow it” but that only applies to ads for stuff outside the game. Every time
6. [R4] Alien Invasion 2/5 · US Find something else: I have put a lot of time into this game. The unrelenting pop ups are obnoxious, quest rewards make no sense, it becomes overwhelming with the amount of materials you have to grind. Seriously you are better off playing a match three game.
7. [R7] Alien Invasion 1/5 · US Money Grab: Huge money grab, peppered with ads, constant micro transactions in your face, and to get rid of ads, you have to pay a subscription.
8. [R9] Alien Invasion 3/5 · US Too many ads: They have overdone the ads. It was a fun game, if a little slow, but now with the ads, the screen is dominated by distracting elements that do not add to the fun, rather get in the way. We do t need to see 8 different add icons at the same time.
9. [R1] Alien Invasion 1/5 · US MAJOR GAME FLAW! GAME GLITCHES WHEN YOU CROSS TIME ZONES!: I REALLY LIKE THIS GAME BUT IT HAS A MAJOR PROBLEM. Following a resent trip across a time zone, my alien bug opened into a totally different area of the game way above my current level. Unable to get to resources to upgrade, thereby trapping me, CUSTOM SERVICE solution was to BUY THE SUPPLIES TO GET OUT. Sounds pretty suspicious and cl
10. [R12] Alien Invasion 3/5 · US Bugged: Good game, but the ads are extremely long. 4/6 of the last ads watched failed to terminate. Some ads continue to loop 3x’s and tgen fail as well.
11. [R15] Alien Invasion 3/5 · US Remove the pointless stuff on the screen that block the players view!: Normally I would rate this 5 stars because this is splendid game with a solid concept however I have the following issues I wish the devs would address urgently: 1. The HUD(Heads up display) should be concealable. The game should have an option to hide or display it. 2. Jitter/ Lag - When consuming the mammoth/ queen of worm
12. [R16] Alien Invasion 1/5 · US ADs don’t load: The game is EXTREMELY slow when loading ads. It takes hours for even a single ad to load. When I told the developers about this and confirmed through troubleshooting that it wasn’t on my end, they just told me there weren’t any ads to serve? Other games don’t have problems serving up ads so I don’t what their problem is. Also, the in game events require paying huge amounts ($90+)
13. [R58] Alien Invasion 1/5 · US Out of Control Ads: This game used to be great but in the last week or so, and add pops up for just about everything you touch and there are no longer ad rewards features like they used to be. What happened? And, to the developer, I did email Crazy Labs. They admitted that after a certain level forced ads become standard and you are expected to pay the $99 a year in order to play ad free. That i
14. [R61] Shadow Hunter 1/5 · US Don’t Buy Anything: I love the game, played it for years off and on. One of the only apps I’ve spent money on. I bought Leo when he first came out because he was so fun. I recently got a new phone and redownloaded the game to start playing again and all my progress was gone. That’s fine I guess I didn’t save everything. However, I emailed support so I could get my purchase restored. I sent pictur
15. [R66] Shadow Hunter 3/5 · US Fun at first but P2W heavy: The game is visually and mechanically fantastic. There are so many ways to customize your character from the gear to active and passive abilities. This combined with the several characters you are allowed to choose from means you can customize your gameplay to whatever you like. The progression at first feels great, however the curve gets much steeper during chapter 3 a
16. [R67] Shadow Hunter 1/5 · US Trash af: It’s a pay to win bull sht
17. [R70] Shadow Hunter 1/5 · US Scam: Gear hidden behind paywalls an the only other way to progress is to slowly get gear you can fuse to level up what you have or keep going through. But if you’re stuck at a boss there’s no way to get more gear without paying, no way to progress. And no way to get currency. WITHOUT paying. It’s a scam, don’t play it.
18. [R78] Shadow Hunter 3/5 · US This game has some good qualities but got some serious issues also.: First the game is pretty fun and great to pass time. But as far as scaling goes that’s one of the major issues in this game, you’ll get stuck on a boss and the only way it seems to get stronger is to start spending real cash and HOPE you get some good gear . And match making is ridiculous my character is lvl 21 and got pitted aga
19. [R69] Shadow Hunter 3/5 · US Controller enable: Would be good if this game allowed iPhone game controllers like backbone to work.
20. [R76] Shadow Hunter 1/5 · US Controller support?????: I’ve been grinding away at this game for about one year now the whole time praying for the addition of controller support by the developer. I still like the game, but lose so much desire to play since I’m forced to use touch screen controls and can’t use my Kishi Razer V2. This is iPhone, Apple will never allow TouchSync like Android. It’s up to you game developers…
21. [R80] Shadow Hunter 5/5 · US New to mobile gaming: I’m really happy with this game I like the options I’m glad that it’s free to play most of all I just wish it would work with a controller like a Backbone
22. [R81] Shadow Hunter 3/5 · US Controller support: Fun but better with a controller
23. [R22] Alien Invasion 1/5 · US Missing purchase: I bought the unlimited egg keys for 39.99 and it’s not there. What gives? Got a new phone redownloaded the game and lost all my progress. Also why is the game such a long unnecessarily long grind
24. [R25] Alien Invasion 1/5 · US Rollback: Game progress is reset, achievements often don't save, and accumulated resources disappear. · translated
25. [R36] Alien Invasion 3/5 · US Good: I've played this game before, and have gotten very far, but now I can't figure out how to restore my game data.
