What players say

If you enjoyed Phage Wars on Armor Games way back in the day, this will be a very fun game for you. I would like a little more customization options with the appearance of the cells you control, but beyond that I'd say the game is pretty much without fault.

Not bad. Chill game for in between loading screen LOL or something like that. Very smooth and nice looking. kinda addicting. But. Lacks true challenge. Levels are repeating.
