  1. [R2] You Sunk 5/5 · US You Sunk: Fun,fun,fun. I never have a sinking feeling when I play this game!
  2. [R5] You Sunk 5/5 · US I love this game: This game is so good and may be the coolest game I’ve ever played. I give it 10/10. Five stars definitely.
  3. [R9] You Sunk 3/5 · US New Update Made It Complicated…: The new update tried to improve the game, I can appreciate that. A graphics overhaul, redesigned gameplay, new ships, and new enemies. It’s not working right, though. The upgrades for the new ships are as extremely expensive as the original ship was, and coins still take far too long to farm. The redesigned torpedo shot slightly changed the all-important timing pla
  4. [R10] You Sunk 1/5 · US This is like Battle Ship board game.: This review is for the new way of playing You Sunk that was available when I opened the app this morning. When I started the game I noticed it had changed to a Battle Ship board game style. I wanted to play the old style, shooting torpedoes, but couldn’t find a way to go back to the old style game. I played it once and do not like it. Now the game is just a g
  5. [R1] You Sunk 1/5 · US Powerups: Game now is attempting to force me to buy powerups. I used to play a lot without buying the powerups. I guess if I have to wait too long I will quit playing and find another game to play
  6. [R13] 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.
  7. [R24] You Sunk 3/5 · GB What could have been a gem of a game has been taken hostage of greed.: 1. From the get go, any game which has an “energy” system where you can only play a few games bet hour already looses a rating. It’s a feeble attempt at making money but ends up in me not wanting to support the company. 2. Constant micro transactions and ads. I get it - you guys need to make your bag, but you should realise tha
  8. [R25] You Sunk 1/5 · US Too many interruptions: Getting worst
  9. [R6] 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
  10. [R15] You Sunk 3/5 · US Score Not Sticking: For some reason my score keeps resetting to 0. It used to retain My last score. The coin amount is retained, but not my previous score. Please advise. Thanks.
  11. [R19] You Sunk 1/5 · US Game not working: Used to be able to play the game but now it won’t even update and I get booted from the game
  12. [R26] You Sunk 5/5 · US An accident game, but there is no volume?: No volume when playing game?
  13. [R61] Fleet Battle 1/5 · US Far too many cheaters: Developer won’t even allow potential hackers to be reported. There is no way some of these players are that lucky. I could care less of how the ships layout is. Was fun but just ridiculous now. If you don’t care about being hacked 25% of the time this game is for you.
  14. [R64] Fleet Battle 1/5 · US Do not waste your time: Game is full of bots. Especially SALVO mode, do not waste your time. The amount of ads alone pisses you off. You will not win, the game will force a tie on you. Giant money grab. Do not do it
  15. [R67] Fleet Battle 1/5 · US Add a report button: Cheaters on your app there’s no way someone could just guess every ship
  16. [R69] Fleet Battle 3/5 · US Challenges!?: Sent challenges to a friend and neither of us can see them or accept them….is there something we are missing?
  17. [R11] You Sunk 5/5 · US Ken Royce: After taking a long vacation from this game, I decided to try it again. I must say, it has greatly improved, and most of the glitches seem to have been fixed. I completed ALL of the games in the Easy mode, and am now on game 350 in the Hard mode. This game is definitely challenging and fun to play. I haven't had to the use too many of the secret weapons yet, but I'm sure they will co
  18. [R36] You Sunk 1/5 · US Updates ruined it: It was a fun little game of shooting torpedoes at ships but a recent "upgrade" makes it difficult to play unless you buy more coins to keep your weapons available. I'm deleting it now.
  19. [R50] You Sunk 1/5 · US New changes: Your new changes are horrible I will no longer play this game unless it goes back to the way it use to be
  20. [R63] Fleet Battle 3/5 · US Fun Game But Paralyzing Ads: The game is great, but every two battles or so you are forced to watch lengthy ads for other games that you can never click out of. This means you are constantly closing the app and opening it again to continue play. This is the lamest user experience ever!
  21. [R75] Fleet Battle 3/5 · US Potential: Has potential but lots of loading issues when inviting friends to challenge. Too many long commercials, would rather just pay for the ap.
  22. [R77] Fleet Battle 4/5 · US Hate the ads: Love the game but wish you could upgrade to no ads!
  23. [R84] Fleet Battle 3/5 · US Could be a 5 star but ads get stuck: Ads more than 30 seconds.. all the monopoly ads got stuck on the app and I have to restart or simply I didn’t open again, need more explanation for the championship.. - one star Need more info about the prizes/championship. The app need better interface, looks really old. - one star Could be a 5 stars game.. but.. well.. 3 stars
  24. [R72] Fleet Battle 3/5 · US It is fun but too much cheating: I literally played 3 games and the third one had a cheater. That tells me that I’m not going 5 games without one, a one in three chance is bogus. They surrounded every ship I had with little to no effort but didn’t immediately click on them so they wouldn’t get caught. It has as many as when I downloaded this last in 2018. It’s still fun but it’d be even better, wo
