The game's story is generally well-received, with many players appreciating its interesting narrative and character variety. However, issues such as frequent mission downloads, glitches, and repetitive gameplay detract from the overall experience.

“Great graphics, plenty of action, great storyline.”
“The game is good and I love it but the problem in stamina in district 3 or up one mission needs 10 stamina and I can only refill 70 stamina so it's hard to complete missions. It takes time; if you fix this problem I will rate it 5 stars.”
“Decent game... has a storyline with a wide range of characters, but sucks that every time I update the app it removes all characters and locations, only for me to download them again and again.”
“This game is trash. It boasts of offline play when you need to connect to the internet every time to download the mission. It's infested with in-app purchases; never download this, it's like a slap in the face.”

The reviews indicate that the grinding aspect of the game is a significant point of contention among players. While some find it manageable and even enjoyable, many criticize it as tedious and exacerbated by poor matchmaking and resource limitations, leading to a frustrating experience, especially for free-to-play users. Overall, the game is described as fun but heavily reliant on grinding, which can detract from the overall enjoyment.
“I keep getting players double my power; it's unfair and horrible matchmaking limiting game progression. I will only change my rating if they fix matchmaking. Until then, 1 star because I cannot progress; it's a wall, and energy is lame to do missions. What's with that? It kinda kills grinding.”
“Resources stretch thin after a certain point, so progression takes an unholy amount of grinding.”
“Good god, the developers ruined this game... it was good before, albeit grindy, but they just had to start implementing these features that made free-to-play players (the ones doing said grindy things) quit due to the unfair treatment.”

“Very good game but still needs small optimizations 🙂”
“Ok, it's good but it could be so much better. I don't have a very powerful phone, but I'd like some better optimization to prevent crashing, because it happens a lot. Please improve animations; it's an eyesore seeing your characters stay totally motionless while bullets are firing from their guns in an entirely different direction.”
“Unfortunately, it isn't fullscreen on my device, and it could be optimized to become less laggy and shaky.”
