What people like
- Very satisfying to play
- Good strategy game challenge
- Easy to pick up again
What they complain about
- Ads interrupt you constantly
- Levels become impossible without paying
- Game crashes and deletes progress
Great Game!
I would give it 6/5 stars if there was an option to make it ad free.
Started running really slow
Fun game but i got to level 130 and the game just started running super slow. I tried reloading the game, restarting my phone, leaving and coming back a day later. Tried even deleting and redownloading and lost all my progress and game is still running slow
Over 730 = impossible
This game is super fun! Have been totally addicted to it since they came out with newer levels. Only issue is once you get past level 700 the levels become insanely hard to beat. As in, you need to spend upwards of 30 min on each level and also get lucky. Once you get past level 730, some of the levels are downright impossible to beat without items. If the levels get harder, there is no realistic way to even come close to beating this game.
Great game. Ads are out of control
I dont see my review. So I will post again. I love playing this game. However, I have to watch long time consuming ads to advance in some rounds. I spend more time with ads than game. At some point, my rational self will quit this. It is not that worth it.
AI is unbearable.
To keep it short and sweet. The game is great. The biggest issue is having to use power ups just to go further in the game. I'm forced to watch add or spend money. There are levels that up CAN NOT WIN even if you have a good strategy. They all target you and start with 200+ strength right next to you while you are at 50. It's just ridiculous.
Childhood memories
I finally found one of my favorite game
Progress glitch maybe
My progress got deleted but I still have the achievements
Good game but got repetitive
I’m on level 1215 and 1725 now. As you get past level 500-1000, you realize the levels are repetitive. Just the opponents start off with way more points. Like at 1725, i start off with 55 and the red/pink/orange starts off with like 900. Some levels, it’s extremely hard to win without boosts. I end up passively watching a bunch of ads while watching kdrama to earn enough coins for freeze or conversion shots. It was fun until probably level 1000. I can’t imagine what it will be like at level 2000. Anyways, it was a good game. Had potential - if they made new designs/maps rather than just using the same ones and starting the opponents off with such a drastic advantage.
Freezing
If I leave the app even if it’s just to check the time I always run a high risk of freezing the game, not devastating, but enraging when I make lots of progress.
Pretty good but needs different levels
After like a day or two of playing the levels just repeat themselves. I would absolutely love a level editor so I can make my own or play levels that other users have posted, it would dramatically improve the game.
Super fun game
This game challenges tire brain to think. It’s great!
The adds are way too long.
After sitting through a minute and a half add. Really.
Great game but too many ads
I really enjoy playing this game but there’s too many ads. maybe add in a purchasable “no ad” package so it get rid of ads. put it up for sale like $1.99 or something? just an idea. Thanks Guys! Love the game tho, very fun and challenging!
Grrr
Ca buuuuuuuuug constamment a la fin de chaque partie !!!!!!!!!!
Great game, but let me pay to remove ads.
I play this nightly, but these ads are getting worse. I doubt anyone will ever see this review. But worth a try
Cell expansion wars
Great
Audio makes it unplayable
Fun gameplay, but the eternally unaddressed audio bugs make it unplayable. Even in silent mode, audio decides to pop on randomly. And when you beat a level, the loud CRACK sound effect goes to max volume that it feels like it’s nearing ear drum burst levels. Been like this for years. The only reason I haven’t deleted yet is because of the hundreds and thousands of level progression I would lose.
Levels
I honestly really like this game. I just wish you could make your own levels and/or have a level making community. Most people will beat the game and delete it, but if there’s a level making system, players will be able to challenge themselves in new ways with this game.
Ads overload
I’ve played this game for a loooong time (I’m over 10,000 3 star levels), but the ads have finally made this game unplayable. Was a great time waster, even though it does get repetitive at times. I’ve just seen the ads get longer and longer and they play after almost every action now. Between levels? Ad Want coins? Ad Need to restart? Ad A lot of the levels are literally impossible without power ups and to get those you have to watch A LOT of ads to get the coins for them. Such a shame. I hate deleting this one, but the devs have just gotten too greedy. You used to run into short 5 second ads but now those are gone too. 15 seconds or more. It’s just a waste of a good game.
Good game, excessive ads
Games fun and challenging, but ads after every round is excessive and may turn me off playing.
Great game
Pretty solid game, it goes from simple to complex and you learn how to play with strategy.
Adware
This game use to be fun, but now you get a 2 minute ad after every round. It’s annoying and just serves as a way for the developer to make money.
Add problem
Popular Nation had an ad that lasted several minutes. I understand watching an add to play the game but this pot add took over my phone. Great game horrible add
Game crashes
I had over 20,000 coins saved from watching videos. The game crashed. It would not reopen. I reinstalled it and lost my coins and progress. Bummer. Other than that, it’s a fun game.
Twas Fun
It was fun while it lasted. I don’t use any items to beat the rounds, the only times I’ve used it were to simply see what they do, even then that was very early on. Sadly, now that I’ve reached the levels where I’m unable to beat the round without using an item, as no matter what I do, the opponent will take over half the map before I even get another cell. And like the previous reviews, the opponent cells will start fully stacked after a takeover as compare to the player takeover with not even half the stack. Ex: 50 max stack, player will get 15 stack upon takeover , at most 25 stacks, compare to opponent getting full stack, ridiculous no matter how you look at it. Literally impossible to beat without “Buying” items. I enjoyed whatever little fun I did whilst playing this game.
Great game to pass the time
Easy to come back to, and good difficulty increase
Did your broken game
There is no reason I should spawn in with 35 points when everyone else has 50+ on double shots it literally makes it impossible for me to take anything over without any power ups which is what you guys want to try and steal my money so just fix your game so people can play it without spending money
great but...
soon I get to a level I can’t pass.😭😭😭
glitch when two cells are to close
at above, when 2 cells are too close, the link glitched and no link shown
Bon jeux trop pub
J’aime se jeux mais les publicités son trop énervant J’aimerais m’en débarrasser
My YouTube career
My viewers like the satisfaction of it. Sub to It’s farra
Phone switch no progress transfer
I switched from android to iOS and now all progress is zero. Contacted developer who told me that my progress cannot be restored or is not supported. developer obviously doesn’t give a care about you.
Great game but it won’t open anymore
Great game. It’s much better than tentacle wars, and it’s really addictive. However, I made it to around lvl 1100 and now the game just doesn’t open. I’ve updated it but it still won’t run. Too bad, I really enjoyed it. **edit: after reading a few reviews claiming some levels are impossible to beat without power-ups, that’s not true at all. I made it pretty far without any before the game crashed. Also, there’s plenty of youtubers who have done the same**
Quickly devolves into ads to win
If you want to watch ads to win, then enjoy. I prefer games that are actually winnable without ad bought boosts.
Okay but needs improvement
It’s kind of good but they make the levels to hard. I’ve had the game for two months and I’m only on level thirty, but then again it does give it a challenge. If you don’t like strategy games don’t get it.
Best mobile game ive played
Non invasive ads, huge variety, well designed. Amazing game!
Trash
Don’t waste your time.
Challenge et humour
Casse-tête par moment. Bon challenge avec un côté humoristique.
Done
I enjoyed the challenge of it but I won’t play anymore. Playing the other game mode where it’s all 4 colors was my favorite till I got to 120. I can’t get anywhere. The main orange cell can reach everything which makes it impossible to get anything going and have 2 main cells is so dumb. I spent a month trying to beat it and lost every time due to the main orange one reaching every other cell.
Nice alternative to reproduction wars
One big problem I see is after slicing a line, the line will still change color when it’s origin cell is captured. This is also a problem when a cell is capture the line falls back to the cell but the line color has already changed which reinforces the captured cell instead of weakening it.
Simple fun and undemanding
Just play for pure relaxation
Recently broken
The hot time is broken - will not play nor should you without it
Great challenging Game!!!
It’s not a esay idle game. You need to think and rethink of your strategies. I love it make my time pass by! Keep the good work team! P.S. maybe need more explanation. Like a page where you can refere to when you went the stats or how things goes with the cells. Not all the trick but the basics with some tips ( I know you give some but only at the beginning and off page of the game could be nice )
Developer Response - Review
When developers respond it is not flowing or well articulated English so it’s hard to understand while reading through reviews. It also seems that there is a template they have which is just copied and pasted. It’s worth getting a translator if needed or outsourcing review responses if unwilling to learn English.
crashing game
i love this game it’s what i play to pass the time but it’s keeps crashing and won’t even open please fix this.
Make more
Make more games like this that look better and to where you take over stuff I love games like this so satisfying
Great for a long while
The game is excellent for the first few thousand levels but unfortunately becomes less fun beyond that point. I enjoy the mindless activity of the game but beyond level 5k or so it’s just annoyingly difficult and no longer enjoyable. It would help if you would at least make a quick way to scroll back to the earlier levels
Catchy
Just started, going to play for awhile now. We shall see how it goes!
Fun Game.....but!
Fun game. Simple premise. Easy to get into. BUT! The ads. Soooooo many ads. All the time with the ads. In game currency is insanely expensive. Too bad really. But would love to see this game in Apple Arcade. I would play a lot of there were no ads.
Game breaking bug
This is a really fun game, but I got to level 207 and I can’t continue because of a glitch. The cell in the middle connects to a cell right beside it and the bridge disappears but still takes up a slot. It does not send anything to anything by it. Please fix this or I cannot continue in game.
