Overview

Squad Busters is a free action game published by Supercell. Its Play listing sums it up as: Multiplayer action strategy! Collect and evolve characters! Unleash your Squad.

What the ratings show

Look at the bars rather than just the average. Squad Busters scores 4.22, but the spread is 71.6% five star, 8.7% four star, 3.4% three star, 2.3% two star and 14.0% one star, across 729,895 ratings. Most people give it full marks, though the one star group is far from tiny.

Count the extremes and you get 522,593 five star ratings and 102,110 one star ratings, a ratio near 5 to 1. The middle of the scale, two and three stars together, holds 5.7% of ratings (41,390 people). The listing shows 50,000,000+ installs, so the 729,895 ratings come from a slice of the people who installed it.

What the developer promises

In the developer’s words, “Select a Hero & your Squad’s unique powers - your tactics and skill will determine the winner”. It also states that “Good luck, may the best squad be still standing”. Another line from the listing: “Squad multiplayer is all about the perfect set up to execute attacks and defend your Hero”. The listing goes on to say “Are you a sniper or will you charge and smash - collect & evolve and build the perfect Squad”.

One more point the description makes: “From multiplayer Mayhem to Squad League, Gem hunt and DUO’s - you’ll discover new tactics and fun surprises with every game”. The description says: “Chase down Loot Goblins, smash Piñatas, recruit Royal Ghosts to haunt others, and more”. In the developer’s words, “Think fast while picking the right mix of tactics to attack and defend your Squad”. That is everything we can say about the gameplay from the listing itself, since this page is built from the Play data and not from hands-on play.

Where it falls short

The listing says it offers in-app purchases, so expect to be asked for attention or money at some point. Also, 14.0% of raters left one star, which is a visible group of unhappy players. This page is built from the Play listing, so check the screenshots and the latest reviews on the Play page before you commit time to it.

Version, size and price

The listing shows last updated Dec 8, 2025, version 140415001, Android 7.0 or newer, a content rating of Everyone 10+ and first released May 29, 2024. The Play page carries 24 screenshots and a promo video, and the written description runs to about 351 words. Google Play labels it as one that offers in-app purchases. There is no upfront price.

Who it suits

Action fans first. It is also an easy one to test, since the Play listing is free to open and the install is one tap. The listed content rating is Everyone 10+.
