The game's story is generally well-received for its engaging characters and appealing visuals, but it suffers from significant technical issues, including frequent crashes and freezes during missions and cutscenes. While some players find the narrative interesting, others describe it as bland or overly lengthy, leading to frustration with mission progression. Overall, the potential for a compelling story is overshadowed by gameplay bugs and a lack of quality-of-life features that hinder the experience.
“The story, the animations, the girls, the mechs, everything is beautiful.”
“I do really love the animation, story, and system of the game, super attractive.”
“Great story, appealing and well-written characters.”
“The storyline quests, especially dialogue, have a high percentage of crashing the game, resetting your progress or even forcing you to redo the entire mission. Personal story daily/weekly missions don't register, making you miss rewards. Bug reporting is tedious and requires too much information to even submit a ticket.”
“The game crashes every time I try to play story mode; I have to skip it. Please fix the game.”
“The story is boring and not entertaining.”

The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players finding it enjoyable and fun, particularly praising the mech customization and graphics. However, several users noted issues such as repetitiveness, bugs, and a lack of engaging mechanics, leading to a perception of the gameplay being tedious or overly reliant on auto-play features. Overall, while the game offers interesting mechanics and a visually appealing experience, it suffers from performance issues and a need for quality-of-life improvements.
“The game is quite fun to play; you can control mechs in a 2D shoot 'em up style gameplay and can change the armament to make them stronger, but it must be in the same class.”
“Gameplay rewards are satisfying.”
“Great gameplay, great animations, great music, and an unlimited rerolling in-game feature that lets you select pilots (characters) you want.”
“The gameplay is rather repetitive and grindy.”
“The UI is confusing and there is really no clear direction in gameplay.”
“Even though the story is okay, the art is decent; once you hit level 20, the gameplay is a slog with very few quality of life features.”

“However, the game is pretty much dead and the devs are putting no effort into fixing the numerous bugs and glitches.”
“The crashes and freezes can be spontaneous or sometimes affect only certain areas (for example, the left screen of the home screen where you can take on requests - one of the requests will always crash the game).”
“Game freezes any time the dialogue tries to advance manually or automatically.”

The grinding aspect of the game is widely criticized for being tedious and repetitive, with many players noting that it requires significant time investment for minimal rewards. While some appreciate the game's free-to-play friendliness and auto mechanics, others find the lack of quality-of-life features, such as the inability to skip battles, exacerbates the grind. Overall, the game offers a mix of enjoyable elements but is marred by excessive grinding that can deter long-term engagement.
“The game is good with tons of cute waifus and cool mechs. The gameplay is enjoyable, not too tedious, and easy to understand. Getting rare characters is pretty easy; you just need to put in the effort to collect those crystals. The hard part is upgrading your mechs and pilots, but the in-game rewards are very generous.”
“The gameplay is rather repetitive and grindy.”
“Sadly it seems like a lot of endless grinding for little to no improvement.”
“Very high production values, but even among gacha games there's a massive amount of tedious busywork to do each day.”

The game's optimization has been widely criticized, with many players reporting significant bugs, frame drops, and crashes, particularly on mobile devices. While some users appreciate the game's concept and mechanics, the overall performance issues and lack of technical stability detract from the experience, leading to a consensus that substantial improvements are needed for smoother gameplay.
“What do I do a year ago to not notice this amazing game? The score sure is low for this really nice game. No stamina system really eases the burden of having to play at certain intervals. The mechanics are good and it consumes reasonable resources on your phone, nicely optimized.”
“The game is fantastic; however, it is poorly optimized.”
“Good game, good concept, but bad optimization. I have not found the settings to lower the graphics, and the game freezes, but I do understand that this is an early game.”
“In its current state, it is poorly optimized and running badly.”
“The game is fantastic, however, poorly optimized.”
“Game is super unstable, poorly developed and optimized.”

The monetization strategy of the game has been widely criticized as predatory and overly focused on generating revenue rather than fostering a positive player experience. Many users describe it as a cash grab, highlighting issues such as aggressive advertising, expensive in-game purchases, and a reliance on outdated gacha mechanics that limit player engagement. Overall, the consensus is that the monetization practices detract significantly from the game's potential enjoyment.
“The more gacha games you play, the larger variety of monetization you will encounter.”
“Great game on paper, but the monetization is predatory.”
“In-game purchases are too expensive.”
“It's a cash grab, not a game.”
“Really wanted to like this, but the predatory monetization got too much.”
“The immediate issue I ran into with this game is the simple fact that it includes every terrible monetization a gacha game can have: it has free and paid 'premium currency' which limits what draws you can do, the fact that it even does 10x pull style shows its age and that it's mainly focusing on siphoning cash rather than building a lasting relationship with the player base.”

Character development in the game is generally viewed as lacking depth, with many players noting that while the character and mech designs are visually appealing, the overall narrative and character progression feel underwhelming. Despite the stunning aesthetics, the gameplay often detracts from meaningful engagement, leading to a sense of superficiality in character interactions. Overall, while the character designs are praised, the depth and complexity of character development leave much to be desired.
“The gameplay is wonderful, and I love the character designs.”
“Great graphics and fun character development.”
“I am in love with all the character design and the gameplay is so fun because it makes you use your brain unlike the other games, I love the real-time map.”
“This game is a little needlessly complex to the point where it suffers from 'many things to do-- none of them important.' The gameplay is not particularly engaging; it's usually easier to auto most things. The character designs are pretty bland and, in some cases, borderline weird, and the client itself is massive, laggy, and in desperate need of an overhaul.”
“Stunning visuals and top-notch aesthetics but lacking in story depth, character design, and music.”
“Also, put more effort into your character designs.”

“Not that it's needed since there doesn't seem to be music on the title screen.”
“Stunning visuals and top-notch aesthetics but lacking in story depth, character design, and music.”
“Tap to move on and the game stops working and only music keeps going.”

The humor in the game is widely appreciated, with characters and dialogues that add a fun and engaging element to the story.

“Dialogues are funny and help the story not to get boring.”
