Fun game but a few bugs like when i hit objects they become invincible and i can get past them, and i die as a result. Also a bad design on the part when if you go to fast and bump into a boss zombie, you get bounced back into the avalanche before you can even fight it. There is also the audio issue of when you turn of the spund option, you can still hear the drone when equipped every few seconds, SUPER annoying. Fix these simple problems and ill give 5 stars.

Good at first but needs more variety, like different guns, more attachment slots, and a bigger variety of enemies. Endless fields doesn't pay out which is super frustrating, and if you turn the audio off to listen to music like I do. whenever you check your notifications or watch an ad or switch tasks and come back to the app, it will have turned the sounds back on, and there's no option to turn it off in the in game pause menu

An enjoyable game, but kind of a copy of the Earn to Die series. Same idea, slightly different gameplay. A big complaint I have is the key system. Usually with games that require something to do another run, you get a reasonable amount, but this game only gives you 7? Also, the progression of the game is very slow paced and hard to enjoy. I recommend the Earn to Die series more than this.

Some upgrade tiers are locked behind premium in game currency (gems) which is incredibly obnoxious and greedy. To make matters worse gems aren't easily obtained without spending money. You can watch ads but they aren't always available. Also, maybe I missed it but the game mechanics aren't explained very well or at all. Like the distance based rewards. I'm guessing you have to buy a pass to get those but they never really explain that. Or what keys are for.

Ad ridden repeat game with terrible mechanics and useless power-ups and with misleading in-game purchases. It would be a fun game if I wasn't repeating entire sections of previous levels with just a new color scheme and constant pop ups telling me "20% OFF!" "10% OFF" every single time I exit a round. Not to mention the "avalanche" inexplicably appears out of nowhere when you've barely slowed down after blasting through a massive section.

Very fun... until you reach the point where you cant make it any further without paying real money to get the upgrades. And these upgrades aren't even a reasonable price if you look at the other prices they're asking for everything else. I haven't even found an option to unlock everything in one purchase, although if they did this game would likely be $20... horribly disappointed

Fun game.... while it lasts. Definitely has its appeal as a quick and easy game to pick up and just play, and even let's you watch ads to get gems and coins, that make it easy to level up... BUT - after having played the game for a mere 3 weeks, I've completed the game. You finish off on the endless level that takes you nowhere and just repeats itself while you pick up coins. The upgrades also plateau like 4 levels before, the machine gun, shot gun and laser. No need to earn more after that.

Fun game and cool concept. BUT there are some issues. 1. The landslide is VERY annoying and catches up no matter how fast or efficient you are. It provides an unfair disadvantage. Maybe some of those red lines ingame could be checkpoints players can retry at. 2. Weapon slots. They shouldn't have to be purchased to use, especially at the difficulty the game is at already. I bought both slots because it seemed impossible without them. Just seems like a cash grab. Apart from these, amazing game.

Unfortunately, the physics in this game are so far out of whack that it's not fun to play. 1. You have to significantly level up your machine in order to complete each level, however this makes your machine OP when playing previous levels. 2. The avalanche is not a timed event that you can avoid by going fast. Instead, it shows up when fighting the Giants or when you go backwards. If you're going fast through a level, you shouldn't be penalized. 3. The in-app purchases are overpriced. 4. Ads.

EDIT: They have added a lot of ways to watch ads, but that's about it. Uninstalled. Fun, but gets boring quick. Needs a lot of refinement. Once you've beat all the levels it is impossible to get enough gold to do high end upgrades without spending money or literal hours each day grinding the exact same thing over and over. There is a "weekly" challenge, but it doesn't appear to actually end. No idea what they were going for there.

It's fun. It becomes extremely repetitive and you can't get very far without spending money. They do have options to watch ads for small perks but ads are unavailable. If they were available, I would bite and watch a few to get more playability out of the game, but for now it's a grind fest of the same few levels just to earn enough coin for upgrades.

This is is amazing and i love how it works and the idea. My main problem with it is that the storm seems to follow to close. So when you ram a boss it bounces you back and instantly die. Ive thought of possible ways of fixing the problem. The first way would be giving an indicator to tell you if the boss is coming up so you can slow down and not instantly die. And the second would be to allow bosses to be one shot without bouncing if you have enough dmg. Honestly i think both would be good.

Pretty fun game. I enjoyed the gameplay, the upgrades and the ability to get cool stuff from watching ads. However, (1) Some of the ads were extremely long, over 2 minutes!!! And (2), you had to watch ads even when you didn't want to watch them! Made no sense to give people the choice to watch ads or not, and still give them ads when they don't want it lol. Terrible practice, uninstalled. Fun while it lasted, which was about an hour or so until I beat the first level.

It's really fun to drive the boulder. But there are a lot of upgrades only achievable by spending money. There are a lot of ad watches if you want to progress. My biggest complaint though is the speed of the avalanche coming behind you. No matter how fast you go through the level, it catches up to you at the "bosses" without fail. If I am able to speed through Chilly Start at a speed I've never gotten before, the avalanche should not catch up to me at the same point regardless of upgrades. Fix

Gets boring pretty quick after getting to the endless level, which takes a few days. After that gathering coins and upgrading takes forever, and the grind isn't really worth it. The endless level is setup in a way that you end up getting stuck randomly or flung backwards causing a failure. Not really worth the time honestly, there are better games.

This game is fun. Pretty simple gameplay, bit enjoyable at its core. However, the game unfortunately makes use of one of the most annoying mobile game mechanics of all time. An energy system. Limiting the amount I can play doesn't make me want to buy keys, it makes me want to uninstall the game. On top of that, the time between when you receive more keys seems to only work when the app is open. This system is outdated and generally anti-consumer.

There is some good here, but I'm going to have to pass. Being asked seemingly every 10 seconds to watch an ad or pay for ad free content is below a respectable creator. It's very easy to accidentally use premium currency when doing multiple upgrades in a row. Have to pay premium currency for higher MV upgrades meaning a hard wall is inevitable. Oh, just to top things off, the audio will always turn on when starting up, even when you turn it off... sounds shady to me.
