The monetization model of the game is generally well-received, with many players appreciating the absence of intrusive ads and the option to watch ads for rewards. While some users report technical issues with ads causing crashes or being unavailable, the overall sentiment is that ads are optional and do not hinder gameplay, allowing for a free-to-play experience without aggressive microtransactions. However, a few players express concerns about the balance of monetization, feeling that it can be excessive at times, particularly with the presence of a season pass and in-game purchases.
“Enjoying this game way more than I thought I would; I'm still in the early game but haven't seen any overly predatory microtransactions or time gates.”
“The cherry on top is that there is no pay-to-win; everything is attainable through regular gameplay and minimal grinding, plus there are no ads unless you choose to watch them for rewards.”
“It's a brilliant game with no lags and no ads.”
“Monetization is a bit too pushy.”
“I tried many times but doesn't matter what I do it doesn't change and since the contracts in the game can only be acquired by ads, I can't continue the storyline... if they could fix this I would really appreciate it and give this game the 5 stars it deserves.”
“Do not waste your time.. everything in this game revolves around real life cash or it takes an eternity to progress.. or ads.. lots and lots of ads.. this game is purely made with the intent to generate income for the developers.. I played this game for about 2 days now and already I'm tired and irritated.”

The reviews indicate that the game features significant grinding, particularly after reaching level 20, which many players find tedious and repetitive. While some enjoy the grind as part of the gameplay experience, others feel it detracts from the fun, especially due to level scaling that keeps enemies challenging and resource acquisition that can be frustratingly slow. Overall, the consensus is that while the game starts off enjoyable, it becomes overly grindy, making progression feel like a chore rather than an engaging experience.
“Great game, could've been better if it wasn't so grindy. The graphics are solid, and overall it's a fun game to play if you haven't found any other enjoyable games.”
“The game is good and all, but when it comes to endgame content, it is tedious; all you do is scrap run and hope RNG is on your side.”
“This is honestly a good game; however, it becomes more and more tedious later on. Enemies seem purposely designed to follow the player's level, so whenever you level up, most enemies will always be 3 levels or more above you, while only a few become 3 levels lower than you.”
“The grinding doesn't feel too bad either, but the way of upgrading your bots, especially post-level 10, is way too grindy for my liking.”

“This game used to be fun and enjoyable but the developers have screwed it up too much; it's now too buggy, inconsistent, and ridiculous.”

Players appreciate the game's straightforwardness and combat mechanics, but many feel that its replayability suffers from repetitiveness and a lack of originality. Suggestions for improvement include adding more playable races and unique abilities for bots to enhance the experience, though some users still find themselves returning to the game frequently. Overall, while there is potential for greater replayability, current limitations hold it back.
“High replayability; I seem to always return here. The only reason I gave 4 stars is that there are only a few bots, and even fewer that make a viable team. My suggestion is to give every bot some kind of unique ability instead of a botpack ability as an ultimate.”
“This game is pretty much just Pokémon mobile. Not that there's anything wrong with that; I do really enjoy this game's straightforwardness, combat, and design. However, I also believe that it could use some work on the replayability. It feels repetitive and could be more original. I can give ideas if needed, but overall I love this game and see a lot of potential in it, which isn't something I usually say about mobile games.”

The game's atmosphere is characterized as cute and positive, reminiscent of cartoonish RPGs like "Blue Dragon." However, some players find the pacing of automatic battles and loading times for danger zones to be frustrating, which detracts from the overall experience. Despite these issues, the strategic elements and decision-making enhance the game's engaging atmosphere.
“This game is cute, but the atmosphere is marred by slow automatic battles that become annoying over time. Additionally, danger zones take forever to load, and rare chests only yield one rare item.”
“If you know a game named Blue Dragon and enjoy a cartoonish RPG atmosphere, this game is all about that.”
“The mix of strategy and multiple decisions along the way really enhances the atmosphere.”
