## Review summary

Earth Defense: Idle RPG is praised for its fun concept, appealing graphics, and ad-free gameplay. However, multiple users experience frequent crashes between waves 50-120, causing significant progress loss and frustration. The lack of updates over months means bugs persist without fixes, and progress saving is unreliable. While the game provides guidance and enjoyable mechanics, persistent stability and quality-of-life issues limit its potential. Players recommend waiting for updates before investing time or money.

### Pros

- No advertisements during gameplay, providing an uninterrupted experience.
- The game concept is fun, easy to pick up, and enjoyable to play for extended periods.
- Guidance within the game helps new players know what to do.
- Graphics and character design are appealing and reminiscent of nostalgic cartoon styles.
- Potential for being one of the better games in its genre if issues are resolved.

### Cons

- Frequent crashing, especially between waves 50-120, causing loss of progress and frustration.
- Lack of updates for several months, leading to persistent bugs and no improvements.
- Progress is often not saved after crashes or when minimizing the app, requiring players to restart runs.
- Advertisements are still required to claim rewards despite no in-game ads during play, which some find annoying.
- Game feels unfinished with bugs such as enemies not spawning and some upgrades being ineffective.
