Base Defense! is an action-packed management game where players take charge of a growing settlement. Beyond just combat, you must manage resources and save civilians to create a living community. As you defeat bosses and shoot through waves of enemies, you can upgrade your weapons, hire workers, and explore new areas including challenging dungeons.

Dinsun Expert Review

Our Expert Score

84/100

Base Defense! from Rollic Games is a compelling blend of action and base management. You aren't just a soldier; you're a leader responsible for the survival of a whole community. The loop of shooting enemies, rescuing civilians, and then using those civilians as workers to expand your base creates a very addictive 'just one more level' feeling. The bosses provide a significant challenge that requires you to stay on top of your character and weapon upgrades.

The sense of progression is excellent. Exploring new areas and conquering new bases feels rewarding, and the recently added Dungeons provide a fresh change of pace from the standard defense gameplay. It’s a game that manages to feel high-stakes while still being accessible enough for a casual session. The performance is smooth, and the frequent updates from the developers show they are committed to refining the player experience.

My only review is that there are only fifteen levels and it makes the game really boring when you’re at level 15 just please add new levels and possibly add more mobs I rated 5 stars to get you’re attention but it’s 3 just because of those things overall it’s a great game and really fun but please add new levels if you did that would be a solid 5 star game

What base defense?
Sat Aug 20 2022 ssdf_32

In this game you have a safe area that you will not be attacked at. The game calls this your base. Drones are attracted to your base. They do not attack your base. You can be attacked when you leave your base. By eliminating the drones you earn “cash” that can be used to unlock different areas of your base, upgrade yourself and your gun. All the areas that you unlock perform the same function. There’s a new “base defense” gun in each of these areas. The guns are wildly inefficient and run through ammo quickly. In the ad it shows you having multiple helpers that supply ammo and grab money. In “the real game“ you get one helper of each type before needing to watch ads to generate more. They do not carry much at all. The amount of ammo delivered runs out before they are able to go back and get more resupply. The developers of this game have attempted to create an urgent feeling by having these drones go towards the base and enabling base to shoot at them. Unfortunately, when you stop running around on the map and just watch what your base does to generate income and “defend itself“ a feeling of apathy, not satisfaction is generated.

Decent game, fun-crushing ad system
Thu Jun 01 2023 Valor_56

I’m all for free games and I’m glad this is pay to win or anything unreasonable like a gacha system. BUT. Putting ads at the bottom of the screen that refresh AT LEAST every 5 seconds is unreasonable and looks like it is greatly hurting the frame rate. On top of this, it sometimes puts up an ad right when I’m in a dungeon or out with a lot of money, and then I get clapped as I lag back into the game, which kills me. I do like that you can get weapons in dungeons, but I’m not sure you can redo the dungeons in case you couldn’t get the weapon, or at least I don’t know how to. In short: dev needs to fix ad system to be less intrusive on basic gameplay and fix gameplay objects glitching out in base. If you’re thinking of playing, download it and have some fun if you don’t mind ads.

Good game but besides that…

This game has way to much ads, some even kill me (in game) when I close the ad I end up in a huge horde without anything to do. This wasn’t much of a problem at first but with how much ads there are it’s a big one. Plus the workers for the turrets WASTE SO MUCH AMMO And the workers are so slow and don’t even carry that much. The game always glitches so then none of the workers move the I have to replay at a long waiting screen. This game is basically pay to win and I see people doing a lot better paying for no ads. And the soldiers always glitch. They only worked this first time. Please fix this. That’s all from me.

Good - BUT

I love this game, has an option for no ads, the ads aren’t overwhelming if you do not want to pay for no ads. The concept of the game is fun. I have only gotten up to base 3 so far. I noticed there’s no audio in the game - some audio would make it a bit more fun for me. Also, if i unlock a few barriers in a base, but have to close the app, it does not save my progress. It will only save the fact that i’m at base 3. A save your progress feature would be nice too so I don’t have to constantly re-do the whole base.

No-ads?
Wed Sep 21 2022 Daisukeme

I’m already on base three. This game is one of the best phone games I have played idle wise. It gets me through boredom and it gets my mind off of work. I have a lot of patience, but ads just keep popping up when I want to upgrade and stuff. Granted you have to keep farming and the other option is to buy with the in game cash but the other option is to watch ads and I bought the no-ads but for what? I’m starting to think that there’s false advertisement. Fun game though.

Great game but ads
Tue Jul 19 2022 killerkellerhayden

This game is great five stars great but the ads in the middle of my game are so annoying I’m being chased by zombies and the BOOM and ad and in the middle of the ad sometimes it freezes and sometimes it doesn’t and after the ad is over my game is super laggy so you need to get rid of ads in the middle of the game not remove ads for x amount of money remove the ads in the middle of the game entirely you can keep the offers to watch ads for things but now in the middle of the game

I paid the 2.99, but the ads cut back on…
Mon Sep 19 2022 Everyones Thoughts Simplified

This is not funny. I paid the 2.99 to remove ads and after I reached level 3, the game is asking me to pay again! I’m really not sure if this is being done on purpose, but I really feel cheated and you all NEED TO FIX THIS!!!🤬 UPDATE: I had to delete the game and reinstall it to for it to show that I paid for the game. It was pretty annoying losing all that progress, I’ll bump my review up to “3 stars.”
