Trinity Simmons		 Horrible interface, sensitive and not accurate to input. Zero sensitivity adjustment available. Ads are overdone by a large margin

Chris Sweeney		 Its a fun game up until a point. Get to level 47 and it is not possible to pass. My assumption is they want you to buy weapons to help which would be fine but they don't make it clear what weapons would help (I.e. spears become more expensive but don't appear to do amy more damage). Was fun up until this point.

ab “Srikks” cd		 Game play is very intuitive. Progress is slow after some levels. The price of weapons is very high after level 40. You will be forced to play old levels again and again to get coins. Kinda of dampner to the whole progress. Makes you want to quit playing.

Benjamin McDonnell		 Fantastic, perfect balance of unlockable upgrades and simple gameplay. Doesn't require pay to win. Fun, and has a good campaign mode. I agree with the other reviews on here that Level 96 needs to be changed. It is impossible to get 3 stars in its current format. I have 3 starts on every other level and have tried playing Level 96 with normal, Exploding Ice Spear and Infinity Spear I WISH BYV GAMES WOULD UNDERSTAND THIS BECAUSE ALL THEIR OTHER GAMES HAVE TIME DELAYS AND PAY TO PLAY. RUINS THEM

Santiago Perez-Shillington		 Great game but it would be cool if they fixed the bug where the armored enemies can "pick up" another enemy's helmet on their platform making them literally invincible. I've been stuck on level 49 of the campaign for years because of this problem...

Srikar Maddula		 Bad sync, good game. I played the game for a lot of hours and when I reinstalled it after quite a big gap, all my progress was lost. All the stuff I bought, my achievements, etc. Didn't want to play it at that point.

Zeke NoScooter_8		 Not fun. When, regardless of level or armor or spinning reflective arcs, you can, and often do. Die on the opponents first attack, you realize that you'll never be "good" at this game, just persistent, and eventually, maybe lucky. Endless mode is even worse, 1st attempt, maybe hit 10 or 20 guys. By your 5th attempt, the game has gotten really good. 2 or 3 throws, many times 1st shot. No fun. Uninstall

M J Wiggins		 Love this byv game more than any of the others. Some of the others are very good. Takes good reflexes to shoot a horde of bad guys. Can advance well without purchases. Watching an ad doubles your score, so bigger prizes, weapons and such are easy to obtain. Just a fun game overall.

Ollie Bunn		 It would have been 5 stars, I love this game BUT level 96 is broken, impossible to get 3 stars, it either needs more enemies or less teleporting wizards, 1 miss and 3 stars is out the window. Otherwise excellent game, no need to spend money if you don't want to all items attainable through gameplay, which is a refreshing change,.

Greg Storozyk		 Simple concept, and a lot of fun, but controls are a bit wonky. It's difficult to tell what gesture actually aims. Sometimes it's vertical slide, sometimes horizonal. Sometimes it some either all the way up or all the way down and nothing in between.
