  1. [R8] Alien Invasion 5/5 · US Best game ever: I enjoy this game so much
  2. [R26] Alien Invasion 5/5 · US BEST GAME EVER: Highly recommended I’ve been playing this game for 3 years now and it’s still so much fun and better than any other mobile game there are no adds unless you want extra items and its a great experience for people who want to play only a little bit at a time because of the fact that you have to wait for some rewards like the dna farms or the gem humans this is by far my favorite mobi
  3. [R65] DEAD TARGET 5/5 · US Zombies: This game is so fun. The weapons are cool asf. There’s a lot to do you never get bored.
  4. [R78] DEAD TARGET 3/5 · US Decent game but could be better: The game is pretty good when it comes to weapon designs and stuff but the gameplay is way too repetitive. Same mode same map every time
  5. [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.
  6. [R55] Alien Invasion 2/5 · US Latest update is awful: No when you close a menu an ad will pop up. I enjoy playing the game when watching an ad is my choice (which is almost never) having one pop up when grabbing your mines, closing the store, closing the upgrade menu… it’s unplayable.
  7. [R102] DEAD TARGET 3/5 · US What happened: Like one reviewer said this used to be my favorite game! But all of a sudden there’s so many glitches. I have an iPhone 12 and thought my play experience would be better, but there are so many glitches. Sometimes my controls would be at the top left of my screen instead of where they have always been in the bottom, right and it just screws me up in the middle of a mission or somethi
  8. [R96] DEAD TARGET 3/5 · US Dead Target Zombies: I like the game but I really hate that it shows a lot of ads just to get rewards and the game keeps glitching like one minute it’s the regular size of the screen then the next it’s extra big where I can’t really see when im trying to shoot and everything be at the top when the button is supposed to be at the bottom can someone please fix this game
  9. [R49] Alien Invasion 1/5 · US Glitchy: Game crashes a lot often losing lots of time invested and resources stolen!
  10. [R67] DEAD TARGET 1/5 · US CRASHES CONSTANTLY; unusable: DO NOT DOWNLOAD. This app crashes constantly and just about every time I play, it crashes and will not complete a level. What a waste of the time and money I have put into this. DEVELOPER: fix it immediately!!!!!
  11. [R105] DEAD TARGET 3/5 · US Crashes: The game is great to play to pass the time but it need updating it crashes a lot😔.
  12. [R106] DEAD TARGET 1/5 · US Good game but some down sides: Game is great but it glitches a lot. Apocalypse mode won’t update the new versions and the raid mode only allows 2 bosses. Also the tech modules delete every so often no matter how much money you spend
  13. [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.
  14. [R70] DEAD TARGET 1/5 · US It’s too expensive and too money minded: The game is cool but always focuses on only money to progress. You purchase and purchase and purchase more especially the arch of thunder to max it purchase and purchase what nonsense. Try to make your game more interesting than focusing only on money and money.
  15. [R76] DEAD TARGET 1/5 · US You take advantage of the players: You making people watch your stupid advertisements in order to get a little nothing of a reward is ridiculous for one. I would never purchase anything that you’re forcing me to watch so it’s a waste of your time.
  16. [R91] DEAD TARGET 1/5 · US Too many ads: Spent more time watching ads than playing the game
  17. [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
  18. [R82] DEAD TARGET 1/5 · US MuffDiver: Been playing this game since it first came out. Great game but I had a issue with all weapons being reset to level one,I sent Support a message and a screenshot of all my weapons that were back to level one and screenshots of all my weapons of before the issue. But since I was the only player that had these issues they wouldn’t fix them. This message is for anybody who plays his game. A
  19. [R112] DEAD TARGET 1/5 · US ⚠️ Beware: VNG Deletes Hard-Earned Tech Cards And Then Lies About It: VNG's "cleanup script”, added May 2025 as a "new feature", deleted a ton of achieves Epic Tech cards for the third time in Dead Target: Zombie. Not only are the Tech cards gone, but wasted is the gold I spent fusing those cards. I submitted before-and-after screenshots proving the deletions, but they deny any loss. No warnin

  21. [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.
