Coast Defender

[quote]Warning: Microtransaction infested mobile app[/quote] Coast Defender is one of thousands of nasty mobile apps infesting the "free" section of Steam, but it's not really free. There's only a superficial "game" here. This mobile app (Coast Defender - Blitz War on the app stores, if you're looking for a bad time) is a garbage WW2 themed minigame with rather crappy assets and bad graphics for a mobile scam. The gameplay is very limited and pointless, basic static shooting which you accomplish by tapping away at your iPhone screen. There's nothing of value here. It's just a veneer wrapped around a nasty, predatory mobile app cash shop. This mobile app (Coast Defender - Blitz War on the app stores, if you're looking for a bad time) is a garbage WW2 themed minigame with rather crappy assets and bad graphics for a mobile scam. The gameplay is very limited and pointless, basic static shooting which you accomplish by tapping away at your iPhone screen. There's nothing of value here. The true purpose of this mobile app is to get you to hand your credit card details to the greedy mobile devs so you can buy stuff in the nasty cash shop... it's a mobile app cash harvester, and has no place in your game library. Putting toxic mobile app monetisation aside... this is a mobile app. I didn't spend thousands on a gaming PC so I could pretend it's an iPhone, and I don't think you did either... this kind of mobile app has no place in your Steam library. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at just a dozen or so concurrent players, and now there's basically nobody playing it. Even though it's free. This is a dismal public reception, but it's easy to see why gamers rejected it.

They're all written in either Russian or broken English, appear at almost exactly the same time, very shortly after the game launched on Steam, all have a direct Steam purchase of the game, and the accounts are used consistently to write fake reviews for asset flips and other cash grabs/scams. The "Positive" review score on this game should be disregarded due to this blatant, unethical review manipulation. This is done to deceive and scam gamers into paying for a bad product. Due to the 2024 FTC ruling (16 CFR Part 465), these fake reviews are a violation of US Federal Law.[/quote] Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? Nope. This isn't worth downloading. While this didn't cost me any money up front, I still feel ripped off.

It's simple, it's free, it's low res, it's blatantly a port of a mobile game, complete with egregious premium currency microtransaction options (although PC is earnable incredibly slowly for free) and "Watch ads for a boost" mechanics, but like...yeah, I mean, it's alright. Would be nice to be able to bulk-open lootboxes quicker, rather than one at a time with the animation each time.

This,,,is pretty terrible. Even for a free game it's extremely dull and I can't even give it full credit for a free game because it has microtransactions. The gameplay is beyond simply repetitive to the point of outright monotony and the visuals would have been mediocre twenty years ago. There is no story.

Игра слишком сырая.

This certainly IS NOT a pay to win game. It takes no time at all to do some levels and open an $800 loot box (in-game cash, not real)... before too many levels, you can have every ship unlocked. Don't bother doing upgrades in the hanger, even on the 5* ships upgrades are not noticeable whatsoever. There is nothing to actually spend money on. The only use for gold is to buy all 3 in-chapter upgrades which isn't needed. As long as you aren't picking the laser or health during a level, any other choice is descent. Missile is a must for those levels with bugged planes. That brings me to the absolutely awful coding this game has. Planes can't fly that way. Ground and obstacles mean nothing. Planes disappear and restart. Upgrades in the hanger are garbage. Certain ships you can't even select. And if you do watch any ads, it's the same 3-4 ads of children games that range from 20-35 seconds a piece. Hopefully this was written by someone new to coding as a test bed and not someone whose been doing games for 20 years.

Меня бесит моя девушка! Она грязную шмотку может положить обратно в шкаф к чистым вещам! К ЧИСТЫМ ВЕЩАМ!!! Не моет за собой посуду, не выкидывает фантики в мусорку, а складывает их в мою кружку! Она не пылесосит и не моет полы! Я боюсь, что на верхних полках пыль с момента постройки дома! Она никогда не готовит жрать, кроме яичницы! Если дома кончается подсолнечное масло, то появится оно ох как нескоро! А если кончается шампунь, то появляется он в тот же вечер! А её ТУПАЯ кошка везде оставляет шерсть! Не знаю, за что я девушку люблю.

No cons, all pros, fun game to play anytime, though there are a few problems like planes lagging and appearing/teleporting somewhere else but otherwise very good
