Crush Them All

Today's game is: Crush Them All
Today I bring you a simplistic idle game created by Godzilab Inc. Offline idle is not infinite and is based on your overall progression and power level.

You are greeted with a quick and generic story. Then you are thrown into a quick tutorial.


This is the main game screen you will see the most. The small box with a 09 is a skill on cooldown. A 3-star unit gives you special skills to attack enemies with. There isn't much interactivity except for leveling and skills.

On the left side, the red donut-like gem is the premium currency in this game. You use it to buy more team members to fight on screen, or more artifact slots, or buy new troops.

The multicolored triangle is a currency you get for ascending at level 130. This will permanently give bonus levels to each troop. These levels affect clans and dungeons.

Last is gold. It is used to level troops and upgrade the village.

This is the village. You buy and upgrade shops up to level 50 to make them automated. These will produce gold and must be manually collected after a time.

This is the collection screen. You can see each troop you own. You can obtain medals for each unit to upgrade its star level.

This is the dungeon screen. You get a limited amount each day. Here you get special currencies to buy artifacts that give you big boosts. That covers all the basics of the game.

Overall:

 4 of 5 cogs.

This is very simple and easy to play the idle game. The game practically runs itself and you have to ascend a lot in this game, at least 20 times to get every building in the village.

Story:

 0 of 5 cogs.

There is a short intro story, that has zero influence on the whole game. After that, there is no story at all.

Amount of ads:

Aside from a single in-game ad to try to get you to buy something, there are no outside ads. You can watch optional ones get a couple of small boosts or premium currency.

Advertised as seen:
✳️✴️ 60%

I've seen several ads where you collect pieces of armor and then magically upgrade the troop to a new type. This simply is not the case. Most of the ads are very misleading. The screenshots on the play store are accurate.

Graphics:

 4 of 5 cogs.

The game features clean and crisp pixel art. All of it appears to be fully original.

Audio:

 3 of 5 cogs.

The game has nice sound effects and the music is calming. There isn't much to set the audio apart from any other game.

Gameplay:

 4 of 5 cogs.

The gameplay is simple but it can get repetitive very quickly. I do not see many features that will keep someone playing for too long.

Free play:
 ðŸ’¯%

You can play this game without spending any money at all. It is possible to unlock everything from playing the game a lot.

Fun factor:
😌 Above Average.

This is a clean and crisp game. You can play as much as you wish and can progress fairly quickly with daily play.


I hope you enjoyed the illumination of another game during these confusing times.
