Reviews of The Army - Idle Strategy Game

2025-01-19	Blake Winans	The game is INSANELY grindy. I don't mind watching ads to get ahead or speed things up, but watching the ads is MANDATORY to play the game in any decent fashion. The resources needed to level up stats increases dramatically per level, and the stat increase? Incredibly low. Each level gives a ".02" increase to the skill. Not every skill, but most of the skills are this way. Prepare to spend 80% of your entire playtime watching ads, or prepare for the longest unnecessary grind of your life.
2025-01-10	Mason Jones	I'm editing my review to reduce from 5 to 3. After I decided I was finished playing (watching ads), and came back to play more, I felt as thought I had made 0 progress and was essentially starting over completely. I'm not giving you any money to watch ads. If I felt I had some progress to return to I might continue to watch more ads. The thought of watching my handful of squares slowly beat other squares while watching very long, unskippable ads completely dissuades me from playing ever again.
2024-12-10	Alex Hoffman	Good premise, terrible execution. Horribly balanced game, your army doesn't focus on the opponent at all. Opponent will always get the upper hand. Once there's a swarm of 5+ enemies there's no way to counter this issue. Progression is extremely slow. Everything is incredibly expensive. Pay to play game and nothing more
2024-09-22	Alex F	Highly unbalanced. The AI is inefficient. The enemy ALWAYS gets the first hit. Why are you units health rounded to the nearest whole number but the upgrade values are not? Level 1 was extremely boring and unsatisfying. I cannot recommend this game. Maybe the devs should pay attention to the reviews because there's a lot of negative ones. Maybe then the game would be worth spending money for more people.
2024-08-10	Zach The Gay	Insane amounts of pop-up ads, very little growth during gameplay forcing you to rely on ad-based rewards, and of course the cherry on top, if you close the app or leave it, your progress completely resets. I went from stage 10 back to stage one because I had to take a phone call. Complete and utter trash. I'd put zero stars if I could.
2024-07-18	george gouker	It was fun but it got ridiculous too fast. There was just no point in continuing onward into the same looking levels, over and over until eventually you either get overwhelmed or beat the 30 levels or so in a row. Not really interesting if you ask me, that's just me though. Two stars because it was interesting at first and it has potential if it was you know more diverse.
2024-06-04	dominic cornell	Omega slow, same concept as the tower, ads ate the only way to progress as not watching any makes the game sooooo slow. The ads are also longer the 30s, more like a minute and a half in total as you have to watch the minute ad and then sit there for 30s watching nothing but a button that wants you to install the game.
2024-06-02	Draykose	Ads say reward granted, and so I end the ad and it doesn't give the reward. Ads are nearly fully optional. Let there be an upgrade that increases the number of starting units. Let there be a way to pick what type of starting unit you get. Let there be an option to see exact numbers and not rounded-up numbers. Fix archer & mage attacks being bugged please, makes them harder to use when they go to attack but the target dies and so their attack is canceled and they have the delay before attacking.
2024-05-31	Bryan Taggart	It's actually a decent game, but purchasing the pack to increase how much I earned in the game ended up making all the upgrades more expensive in the game as well. What kind of a system is that? Kinda underhanded if you ask me. Spend money to make progression a little quicker and end up increasing prices as well ends up just being a waste of money. If I could I'd as for a refund..
2024-05-30	Josh Stapley	Could be a good concept. WAY too many adds required to progress. Watch an up to speed it up for 5 minutes. Watch another add to get like 20 times more points than you could by actually playing. Then die 30 seconds later and have to watch more ads. You spend more time watching ads than playing.
