  • gameplay
    28 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is characterized by a fun loop of resource management, base building, and defending against waves of enemies, blending elements of tower defense and RTS mechanics. While the building mechanics are praised for their depth and integration, some players find the enemy variety lacking and the game overly grindy, missing features like troop customization from the previous installment. Overall, the gameplay is solid and engaging, with potential for further improvement and content expansion.

    • “The gameplay loop of managing resources and building before defending waves of enemies is generally fun.”
    • “In the game, you build a base with several mechanics that work flawlessly together.”
    • “It expands upon a lot from the first game and has really solid gameplay that I feel like could keep you entertained for hours.”
    • “Far too grindy, and the missing mechanics from the first game are rather discouraging (mainly troop customization and other playable factions). I hope some things are improved and more content is added.”
    • “In terms of gameplay, it does feel like the game doesn't promote building big fancy fortresses in survival mode because resources are very finite, and everything is quite expensive.”
    • “In its current state, the gameplay stops at a simple 'build some pillars with some snipers and lasers and finish the level.'”
  • graphics
    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the improved art style and visual quality, while others criticize performance issues and graphical bugs that hinder gameplay. Users note that the visuals may feel like a downgrade from previous versions, particularly on PC, and suggest that the graphics settings could be better optimized. Overall, while the art style is appreciated by some, the performance and balance issues detract from the experience for many players.

    • “Great art style”
    • “Starting with the graphics, they've clearly improved.”
    • “The graphics look great (in my opinion)!”
    • “I just think this game is a bit too different from the 2012 block fortress; it feels unbalanced, but I can't really put my finger on it, and the visuals seem like a slight downgrade in comparison to the mobile variant.”
    • “Really bad performance on a decently strong system with all graphics settings turned as low as possible.”
    • “Graphical bugs made the game unplayable, so I refunded it.”
  • music
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews, with many noting that while the soundtrack includes some new tracks, much of it is recycled from "BF: War." Players appreciate the quality of the new compositions, particularly for the goblocks, but express a desire for a greater variety to prevent monotony from repetitive loops. Overall, the music is considered good, but there is a clear call for more diverse soundtracks.

    • “The music is good.”
    • “It's true that most of the battle music is from BF: War, but considering the new ones, which are four for the Goblocks and one for each other race, they're pretty good.”
    • “I hope they add in more music soundtracks.”
    • “I had the sound on for a while but the music became a bit monotonous.”
    • “Only problem is that I've played this game so much that it gets tiring hearing the same soundtrack loop over and over.”
    • “On the topic of music, I don't really think the goblock soundtracks fit like the other three races do.”
  • optimization
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization has received mixed reviews, with many players experiencing significant performance issues, particularly during intense gameplay scenarios, leading to low frame rates even on capable systems. While some users noted improvements following optimization patches, others expressed a strong desire for more optimization options in the settings. Conversely, a few players highlighted that the game runs surprisingly well on older devices, indicating that optimization may vary depending on specific hardware configurations.

    • “They've made optimization patches (at least I'm pretty sure, the game felt like it was running better).”
    • “The fact that a game this complex, with so many enemies, turrets, pets/bots, and projectiles on screen at once, could run smoothly on an iPad 1 still amazes me.”
    • “Overall, optimization is really good.”
    • “That being said, there are some optimization issues with the game, especially during heavy waves or against particle-heavy races.”
    • “Really bad performance on a decently strong system with all graphics settings turned as low as possible.”
    • “Horrible, inexcusable performance; completely unoptimized. I would give a positive review if the game could run at 60 fps, even slightly consistently.”
  • story
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is centered around user-generated missions and sandbox gameplay, which many players find enjoyable and engaging. While opinions vary, with some not being particularly fond of the story elements, the addition of missions and community interactions is generally seen as a fun twist that enhances the overall experience. Players appreciate the challenge of these missions, especially in the context of survival gameplay reminiscent of previous titles.

    • “The missions also are a blast and you get a reward for playing them that will help your conquest of planets.”
    • “The community missions are also a fun way to interact with others.”
    • “Survival has all the classic action from BF1, and missions are definitely a cool twist.”
    • “The missions were alright.”
    • “You can build your own missions, sandbox games... well, pretty much.”
    • “(Tip: do missions later because they are difficult; survival is the charm of this game.)”
  • grinding
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be overly tedious, with a shift from rewarding progression to reliance on RNG loot drops, which diminishes the enjoyment of upgrading weapons and mods. The absence of customization options and clear meta builds further exacerbates the grind, leading to frustration and a desire for improvements and additional content. Overall, while the game starts off engaging, it quickly becomes a time-consuming experience that lacks the satisfaction of previous iterations.

    • “Good initial start but quickly becomes tedious with clear meta builds outshining all other possible builds.”
    • “Far too grindy, and the missing mechanics from the first game are rather discouraging (mainly troop customization and other playable factions). The game is new, and I guess I can't expect too much, but I hope some things are improved and more content is added.”
    • “The fun of grinding to power up your favorite weapons and turrets is gone, replaced by RNG lootbox-esque buff drops.”
  • replayability
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, players find the game highly enjoyable with significant replayability, though some suggest that balancing could be improved to enhance this aspect further. Many reviewers highlight it as one of the best in terms of replay value, indicating strong potential for repeated playthroughs.

    • “Very enjoyable and has great replayability.”
    • “Even now, I’d say it has some of the best replay value of any game I’ve ever played.”
    • “The enjoyment factor is big, but I think that the replay value and balancing could be improved.”
    • “We will see, that will add a lot of replay value.”
  • monetization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features a traditional purchase model without freemium elements or microtransactions, which is appreciated by users. However, it retains some elements reminiscent of its predecessor, including lootboxes, and players have noted issues with visibility during gameplay due to certain weapon effects. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as a positive aspect, avoiding intrusive ads and microtransactions.

    • “Given that the game costs money, there are no freemium mobile in-app purchases here, which is a refreshing change.”
    • “I appreciate that there are no microtransactions in this game; it feels like a breath of fresh air.”
    • “The absence of gambling mechanics and microtransactions is a huge plus for this game.”
    • “Given that the game costs money, there are no freemium mobile in-app purchases here, but this feels like a remnant of their Block Fortress Empires mobile game with loot boxes.”
    • “Gambling is present, but thankfully there are no microtransactions, thank god.”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the humor in the game to be enjoyable, particularly highlighting the amusing player dino head option as a standout feature.

    • “The player dino head option adds a hilarious twist to the game!”
    • “The humor in this game is spot-on, making every moment enjoyable.”
    • “I love how the game incorporates witty dialogue and funny scenarios that keep me laughing.”
  • stability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
