Pizza Hero Reviews

Yet another “what if Vampire Survivors but worse?” game.

It feels bad to play. The pizza slowly rotates to face the direction it wants to shoot and you get hit a lot because of it. It also doesn’t stay in the center of the screen, meaning you’ll accidentally steer yourself into enemies as the camera whips every which way. The flick-to-dodge mechanic hardly ever works when you want it to and you end up using it when you don’t mean to.

The game is free but it really, really tries to get you to watch a bunch of 30 second ads to keep playing. No free revives, only ads. Progression is very slow and it’s hard to want to do the same level a dozen times over just to get a few hundred coins.

Lastly, the pets don’t appear to do anything meaningful.

“Hey let’s make a better version of a great game” *makes an infinitely worse version of a great game*

The game is fun, but there are changes that need to get fixed before it’s playable. My biggest problem is that if your screen shuts off you will almost certainly lose all progress you made in a level. So you are either playing a level for 45 mins +, or you lose everything. If a call comes through during this game you lose your progress as well. It makes it unplayable in my opinion for now.

The game is really fun, I would give it 5 stars but it’s really frustrating when I get a call in the middle of a game or I leave PizzaHero even for 1 minute. The game completely restarts and I either have to start from a save point (which is never close to where you were) or if your in endless mode you just lose all progress and coins from that game. I would understand if the game restarts after several minutes of being gone, but it restarts even if u leave PizzaHero for a second. I get a lot of calls so it’s almost impossible for me to finish a game.

The game is very good, all in all a good alternative for Vampire Survivors with a lot of missing features compared to that.
I purchased the no ads to get rit of the ads but i still found ads here and there, at least say that it removes one kind of ads and not all of them instead of scamming people with it. Unless i have a bug or issue but when you say remove ads it should remove them everywhere.

The swipe-to-dash mechanic triggers even if you don’t lift your finger at the end of the swipe, so it constantly triggers during normal movement. That being said, it looks like this will be a great game once the dash is fixed

This would easily be a 5 star game for me. However I have come across two major issues that hinder replay ability. The sound is completely gone, no matter the settings in game or on my physical phone. And I have reached max level in multiple weapons but they remain locked. I have tried to amend this issue by reset and by uninstalling the game and reinstalling it. No fix. I would love to keep playing, but I am not reaping the rewards I’ve earned. A tragedy made much more somber in the utter silence left in the wake of my audio issue.
Am I just dumb and missing something? I really hope so..

Dash is horrible. You dash when you don’t want to and can’t dash when you want to. The disappearing tomTo cans after killing a boss is completely stupid. Half the time 2-3 spawn and I can’t get to any of them and they disappear. FIX THE DASH IT IS HORRIBLE.

Fun game so far just very hard to level up and for the moves to hit the enemies

Love this game but it feels a little incomplete so far. Worst thing is when you are 15 minutes in and switch to check a message or anything else and return to find your progress saved only to less than 4 minutes into the level you were playing, very poor saving mechanism. Hope these get fixed in future updates

Yeah completed the first level, having a blast with it! It’s pretty fun. But then comes the second level, and as I upgrade my toppings and more enemies appear on the scream the game becomes gradually laggy and the screen just froze at one point. It’s unplayable

I’ve enjoyed this one a lot. It’s another Vampire Survivors-like, but it’s well done and has good music and visuals. It also lets you save and quit mid-run, which is something that keeps VS from feeling like a perfect mobile game. Some ads but it isn’t annoying and you can pay to remove them.

I took one star off because while you can save mid-run and that’s awesome, the game is pretty bad about restarting if you mess around with other apps. I can pop into text messages or podcasts for less than five seconds and when I come back, Pizza Hero I has restarted. Not a huge deal since you can save and quit, but make sure you do actually save every time you leave PizzaHero for even a few seconds

This is one of the best games I have ever played. It’s super fun and can absorb me in it for hours on end. But, it’s very slow progression with the upgrades you get with the yellow coins, every other game you can maybe afford one upgrade. Then the level times are super long for my preference, some people may enjoy this but it’s just not my cup of tea sometimes. Besides that, this is one of the best games, I have not experienced a single bug just yet. I’m exited to see what they do with it in the future. Oh and it has no ads unless you want there to be one!

I really like this game so far. It is a fun and silly concept with a great sound track. The trails mechanic to lead you to mini events is a great feature. There’s lots of things the devs could expand on this. More events, maybe portals to send you to harder bosses with more mechanics. The future updates should have some kind of equipment system with rarity, gem sockets, or something similar to what’s already out there in other games. Maybe upgrade skill trees for different toppings.

A few things that need to be fixed:

The recipes don’t appear when you start a new game and select new skills. You have to go back to the recipe menu and reapply the recipe for it to show up on skill selection again.

The resume feature is really out of sync. I swiped out of PizzaHero on multiple occasions to come back and resume my game. A game I had 19min of progress resumed back down to 4min. The resume should be back where my progress actually was.

Overall if the devs address the minor issues and continue new features, it’s a 5⭐️

Amazing game, really fun and exciting. My only problem is the dash. I feel like it would be better if there was a second button on the bottom left of the screen that you could tap to dash in the direction you are facing. Because the way it is now, sometimes I will take my finger off to relax and when I tap again I dash even though I didn't mean to. And other times when I try to dash I will mess up and just stop then walk again without dashing. I just feel like it would be more intuitive to have separate button for dashing. You could also have a setting to move the button to bottom right if someone is left handed or just prefers that way.

All in all, its a real fun game and totally worth playing if the dashing mechanic doesn't bother you so give it a try.

I’ll keep it short and to the point because I think the game is great! It’s gotta very cool retro art style and it’s reminiscent of Vanpire survivors but it has its own charm that makes it standout thematically. The controls work well and it would be 5 stars but the main thing is like to see soon is landscape as well as controller support. Aside from that fun little game that I can see myself sinking a good amount of time into in between other tasks.

Love the game! Great graphics, fun weapons..but I think the movement/controls could use a little adjustment. I find myself dashing randomly and then when I want to dash, the character just stops (I missed a few timed barrels bc of this lol). Adding a button to dash would be a good alternative (could switch from swipe/button in the settings) and then adding the option to play in Landscape/Portrait mode). Playing in Landscape mode with a joystick and a button to dash would make this game a 10/10 mobile experience!

There are a bazillion vampire survivors clones out there and 99% are garbage cash grabs. Pizza Hero is a blast (with original assets!) and is easily the best VS-like on iOS right now.

It’s free with no in-app purchases and ads only appear if you want them to (for reviving and stuff). I truly appreciate this model but my dude I want to give you money! Let me pay you!

One I love pizza two I love dogs both of those combined made my day and now I am a little over obsessed as I am following him on TikTok and joined the discord but also we have a very special connection and it feels as Max is an actual dog that I love to meet one day. Max was really a hero. in my gaming because I was getting really bored lol. but now I haven’t been bored since.

(- & +)
Talk about true customizable upgrades yo!
Those tunes are on point to get you in the mood to blast the pinapples off your slice(yes i'm one of those that doesn't like pineapple on pizza) Cool story. i had much fun in Crust Crusaders & i give standing applause for you to give us extra toppings from your menu of games. Keep up your funtaztic Shmup heArtwork

This game has class and action, so many combinations, so many ways to play.
This can only get better from here.
My only hopes for the future is more pizza recipes, achievements, and maybe pizza sauces?

I love this game so much I recommended for anyone who’s bored and can’t find a good game to play, for any dogs lovers there’s a dog in the game as well lol it’s so cute and when your waiting you can see the dog running around In the back and if you click the dog it barks, super fun and cute including the dog, your a pizza that’s basically fighting alongside a dog. Fun game 10/10 :)

Great game i love it the dash is my problem when the dash is ready it goes sometimes when you don't want it to but i love the creativity to make different toppings different weapons keep up the good work but also make some huge updates it will make people play it for longer.

I LOVE THIS GAME it’s so fun and it’s incredibly satisfying destroying all the little monsters trying to eat you. The toppings are all power ups and i like customizing the pizza. my only gripes are that THERE ARENT ENOUGH LEVELS :( i finished the game in only a few days, BUT i don’t think this is too much of a problem because from what i can tell this game is pretty new. it says V.1 came out 4 months ago, so it’s probably still in development and there’s more to come! overall 10/10 you should definitely play

Please add a sign of some sort that points you back to the path, there has been so many times where I leave the path to get a can of tomatoes after beating a boss and then forgetting where I came from.

It’s a great game I just wish that it would auto save more so if I need to leave PizzaHero for any reason is doesn’t set me back 5-10 levels

I can't wait for the windows PC version to release. I already got it in my steam wishlist. This game has a huge 90s nostalgia feel to it. At least for me it does. I'm guy with tons of 90s nostalgia while playing. The music sounds like true 8 bit audio. One song almost sounds straight from the original tmnt NES game. And the style design and color is so cool. I like the prologue of the game. a space pizza defending itself from monsters trying to not be eaten. Along with his new best friend max. Also finding and rescuing Max's friends who have all been captured and caged. Awesome game.

i love it so much i was the first person to get ALL compantiond

I saw this when it was being made on either yt shorts or tiktok and I forgot I had it on hold and HOLY NUGGETS ITS AMAZING I LOVE IT SO MUCH

This game is so fun to play when you are bored and this game is the perfect game because 1the dog that is in the game I love dogs.2 the graphics are so amazing. 3 pizza is my favorite food this is why you should download this game

This game is the best game, I played this game for a day already and it’s fun I recommend this game to all

Been waiting a while for a game like this🥳🥳🥳

This is a very high action game it keeps you immersed and is highly engaging and entertaining… absolute masterpiece

10/10

the art style is very appealing and is very nice to look at, the gameplay is fun, and the dash is such a good mechanic that saved me from dying. and i like the integrated clock so you dont have to bring down your phones drop menu.

I preordered this because i knew it would be a good game, and I was not wrong!

I was the first person to write a review and play the game and honestly it’s super fun

It’s super fun but it’s quite hard besides that super cute and fun

It finally came out yippeeee i watch your vids they are awesome!

This game is so good! Been playing for hours now and my pizza has plenty of toppings that help me fight more enemies! I recommend this game

More sauces!

Pre ordered the game

Amazing game

Game

I love the pixel art of the game and the adorable pets in the game! There’s a crazy amount of toppings which is insane, I love the idea of being able to mow down enemies with different loadouts every time! I like the recipes as it just adds a whole new level of strategy for your toppings! And the gameplay loop is good, I would like to have an endless mode and different abilities but other than that I just can’t stop playing it! Thank you for the amazing game!

This is the best Pizza Game ever created. I like how different toppings has its purpose to defeat the enemies. I like how it gets progressively harder as well. Love Max and the pets that you have to save. Also love the coins that are used to upgrade like max health and dash attack.

The game is amazing but when you go in the portal you are able to be killed other then that the team is amazing and highly recommende

I used to play fifa mobile all the time until I found this game and now this is the only game I play and, also you can get a frog as a pet and I love frogs

this game has it all! And that I really like pizza so how can I let such a random game pass? so get ready and become a pizza getting powers killing monsters and more! I hope the game receives improvements as time goes by. Good game, excellent work.

Really awesome game. And I mean your a pizza what better to ask for. Love you have pets and awesome funny abilities. Can’t wait to see what else you add to this. Awesome job devs thank you
