Sentinel 3

Sentinel 4 is a mess. Graphics are horrible, UI is a distraction throughout the gameplay experience. Bring back Sentinel 3.

Since the latest update this app is not operating correctly.

When I downloaded the latest update, now the stronghold will not open and there are several features I cannot get to. The Sentinel button also is not available.

Math is not correct, some gameplay bugs ( no fun intended)

I feel like i am overpaying for all upgrades. At radius 99, 5% upgrade makes it 101, next 5% upgrade makes it 102. Which makes no sense to me. Some levels can be zoomed to out, some (especially portrait orientations) are not. Some additional buttons overlay turets menus. I feel like in app purchases are almost a must to have any enjoyable gameplay.

I just forced myself to get through map 5

And felt compelled to go ahead and write a review. What were you guys thinking? This is awful. If it had been a free app, I would have deleted it prior to map 3. I've been a big fan of the previous three Sentinel games and have played them each multiple times through the years - I even have #2 and #3 on my phone now...I've even wished you would release a sequel to Space Station Frontier....but where you tried to bring Sentinel 4, for whatever reason, makes me gag. I read the reviews yet still purchased it, and God what a disappointment. I can't believe I anticipated this delayed release for so long. Seriously, it's going to take a lot for me to want to give your games my ownership ever again. This game should have been free for the ridiculousness of its gameplay. You overthought this version way too much, and probably paid some developer way too much for the stupid ideas incorporated here which has ruined an otherwise incredible franchise. I had mentioned the fact that I still play 1-2-3 repeatedly....but I can tell you truthfully, once each level's opening of hard & psycho is unlocked, I have no interest whatsoever in repeating those levels - I wasn't kidding that I had forced myself to complete map 5 of your new version. This should have been a free game - by map 3 you're asking for the in-app purchase...shameful for a juvenile game production quality treated as a mega release.

This version of Sentinal isn't much different than previous versions, there's really nothing new about it -- graphics are tired, identical gameplay. The audio effects are extremely annoying...

Game is addictive from 1-4 best tower defense game out there

Not worth the cost

This latest version is great to play but you will burn through the 26 maps in no time. If they come out with more levels then great but at this point not worth the money.

CRAP !!!!

WELL.........HELL

I wanted to give it five stars but the game is flaky. It is addictive. I have been playing it a lot. The game will lock up sometimes and also slow in response. I have enjoyed the whole series. I like the new gameplay they have added. I feel the graphics could've been updated, they do look dated. With all that said, it still is a good game. It will not be deleted for long time.
