- “Just turn off WiFi and no ads, perfect.”
- “The amount of ads you get is ridiculous.”

The gameplay of this strategy game is widely praised for its simplicity and accessibility, making it easy for players to understand and enjoy.

While the game is generally engaging, a few players note issues with ads, bugs, and certain mechanics that could enhance the overall experience.
- “One of the simplest and most entertaining strategy games I found on the Play Store. The ads aren't too interrupting, most of the countryballs aren't difficult to obtain, and the gameplay is really easy to understand.”
- “Excellent gameplay, just the right amount of difficulty, and simple yet complex gameplay.”
- “This game has a fun and unique gameplay system and it barely has any ads.”
- “It's a fun game, but in retrospect, some nations such as Serbia are useless. You don't have any cards, and no shop or base to upgrade with. Nobody will ally with you, so you are just dead. Also, having to unlock certain countries with coins is a stupid mechanic; it limits the enjoyability of the game.”
- “Stale minigames, pay to win, and boring gameplay.”
- “Very bad game, bad AI, bad mechanics, and trash graphics.”

The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with many reporting frequent glitches and crashes, particularly during battles and updates.

While players appreciate the game's concept and potential, the overwhelming number of bugs has resulted in a call for urgent fixes to improve overall stability.

- “This is a great game but there's a glitch that removed all my army when I went into battle on my own after the battle and I lost hours worth of grinding to that bug, please fix this.”

Overall, players find the game to have a significant replayability factor, particularly due to the potential for user-generated content and varied scenarios. However, some users feel that the game could benefit from additional features, such as random events and historical accuracy, to enhance its longevity and keep it engaging. While many enjoy the game for its fun elements, a few express concerns about it becoming repetitive without further updates.
- “It's a good game, not too many ads and it has a huge replayability factor to it.”
- “It's very replayable as well.”
- “Fun game with hours of replayability.”
- “Good game gets a little boring and almost no replayability but good.”
- “Should make the game less boring and give it replayability by just adding random events. People really want a historical game; if WW1, Germans should actually be equipped with Gewehr 98, British with Lee Enfield, etc. Funny elements are okay, but not too much. That's just my opinion.”
- “This is an excellent game, but it would be best if you created an online workshop where players could download maps and use existing countryballs with different scenarios. This game has full potential; it just needs a bit more polishing, including loading lag, more playables and scenarios, and a small/better tutorial.”
