2024-06-07 | Stefan | Bad: Crashing does happen however its intermittent for me. The game is updated frequently and I have seen improvement. Pay to win. You can spend money to get a pvp advantage. Being fair, most (or all?) items "can" be achieved for a free player, but the time required is MASSIVE. Good: Almost the same old game. Some tweaks but it is very faithful to the OG. Single player is interesting and fun, but gated behind challenge coins. Another premium currency you can earn. 7/10 as is. 9.5/10 w/o p2w. | |
2024-05-31 | Travis | Much like original game I played 20+ years ago. Boomer still there! Fun campaign mode. Some bugs and translation issues. I've never been a fan of the shot location indicator. Overall good game. Crashes more frequently than I like, but you can usually pick up where you left off. It usually crashes after a game ends, especially if you've leveled up. But you usually get the level up and reward. | |
2024-05-23 | Auto Matic | Can't even enjoy the game anymore, it crashes every 2 games. Don't even waste your time or money on this game ****Update. Still the same crashes. What's worse is that it crashed on the very 1st game after new update stated that it will fix Bugs. Very disappointing ***Update- after it crashes you can't watch replay of that game, there's no replay after it crashes | |
2022-11-20 | Greg Coulter | So addictive and fun! I used to play Gunbound 20 years ago on PC. While the mobile version isn't perfect, it's immediately became my most played game. 2 things... They nood to GET RID OF the shot line after a certain rank, to keep it challenging (Gold Axe would be good). The PC version relies on you looking at your shot angle and power. Perhaps have a "pro matchup" with no shot line? 2nd, They need to make a 3v3 match up! | |
2022-01-27 | Zachary Taylor | I'm on old desktop player and it has the same feel just without the power control feel with the mouse "slice option". I do agree with other saying the game needs rebalance!! The way they pair you up with other other oppents is really weird! Although they say their reasoning is because by "league" still doesn't make sense. Just a way to be lazy to fix it. I do enjoy the games graphics and game play overall! They need more events and more shop options very rarely do they update it. Idk why. | |
2021-09-28 | Gary Wu | The latest update made players more powerful the more skins they purchase. Played this game religiously for 3 years but now it has become like any of the myriad of pay-to-win games. Add to that, there are bugs in every update, some breaking the game's functionality and even ones that the developers won't acknowledge or don't know how to fix. Despite its problems, I loved Gunbound, but it has taken a turn for the worse and I feel it's no longer worth my time. | |
2021-05-09 | Juan Droid | 4/5 because I loved the old Gunbound and miss the old maps, gear, high wind, and bot mechanics. But most of all, I dislike the guideline for every single shot. I think the devs should revert to the legacy shooting system - i.e. user sees trajectory and telemetry of power and angle of previous shot but no guideline for their current shot. Other than that, I missed gunbound a lot so I am glad it is here; even considering the changes I am not favorable of. All in all, game is fun! 4/5 for now. | |
2021-04-26 | Chris Nevitt | I have fond memories of playing Gunbound: Thor's Hammer back in the early 2000s on my pc when I was a kid. I am quite happy to say that this mobile (no pun intended) version improves upon the original in almost every way. Seriously, if you like artillery games, get this. The English translation, while adequate enough, could use some work, but that's always been the case for the series. The music also doesn't quite loop properly, and fades between tracks, but those are just annoyances, really. | |
2021-04-20 | Grond112358 | Not pay-to-win, but you certainly can pay to advance quicker (though it is exorbitant), and there are a couple of really good avatars that you can't earn with the in-game currency; otherwise, all the tanks and avatars are earnable, given enough time, and the more powerful ones only barely give you an edge, and that's only if you're strategic. A well-designed game, constantly being updated. Ads are not annoying, thankfully. | |
2021-03-29 | Adam Rexrode | Played the original on PC for countless hours. This is a pretty good mobile adaptation, but kind of lacking compared to the original due to trajectory line when aiming. I also dislike having to pay in-game currency in order to play matches. It would be more fun to play unlimited and spend earnings on costumes and such. |
