    75 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with some players praising its unique mechanics and depth, particularly in PvP modes, while others criticize the clunky controls, poor collision detection, and a frustrating combat system that undermines the intended mechanics. Many users noted that the game requires a steep learning curve and could benefit from optimization and balancing, especially regarding character abilities and the camera system. Overall, while the game has potential and interesting concepts, significant improvements are needed to enhance the overall gameplay experience.

    • “The gameplay is awesome as well!”
    • “The game has lovable characters, a plethora of skins and emotes you can unlock in-game or buy, and the gameplay is just so fun!”
    • “Besides battle royale solo/team, free for all, it also has 1v1 tag match which I love - the mechanics are designed in a way so you can always do something, and winning requires thinking and adjusting your strategy in real time a lot more than in most other games.”
    • “The collision mechanics are garbage at best. The controls are so confusing and unorthodox; a pebble the size of a dime stops you in your tracks instead of allowing you to run over it. The block and parry system is way too broken, and half the time your abilities are impossible to land. One reason is they can be blocked, which is absolutely stupid, and secondly, they are mostly skill-based, so if you use the lock-on system, you'll never land an ability if the enemy is moving at all.”
    • “The gameplay design loop is bad, and the combat feels bad.”
    • “Best refund I ever had. This game's combat mechanics are so clunky and broken that it makes it unenjoyable to the point that I'm shocked someone recommended it. They should have thrown that trashy game into the dumpster fire from which it came.”
  • graphics
    36 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many players praising the art style and visual quality as beautiful and immersive. However, there are significant concerns regarding optimization, as several users report lag and performance issues when running the game on high settings, particularly on lower-end hardware. Overall, while the graphics are a highlight for some, the inconsistent performance detracts from the experience for others.

    • “Amazing gorgeous graphics game”
    • “The graphics for the game are actually really good and really sets the mood for the game.”
    • “Graphics obviously shine in this one, beyond question.”
    • “If I set the graphics to high, it is basically unplayable.”
    • “Poor graphic optimization that gives an always laggy gaming experience, and now the dead server with no players.”
    • “However, this game runs slow on my Intel Iris Plus graphics. I hope you could optimize performance on Intel integrated graphics to make low-end PCs playable.”
  • optimization
    31 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game's optimization has received significant criticism, with many players experiencing stuttering, low frame rates, and performance issues even on high-end systems. While some users report enjoying the gameplay, they emphasize the need for substantial improvements in optimization to enhance performance across various hardware configurations. Many believe that the developers should prioritize optimization over marketing efforts to improve the gaming experience.

    • “I'm enjoying how this game plays, I've not experienced any major issues relating to performance.”
    • “First impressions are pretty good in terms of performance and the characters.”
    • “Few more tweaks in optimization are definitely needed.”
    • “Just horribly optimized.”
    • “Optimization is non-existent, I've a quite strong PC still having game-breaking lag on minimum graphics even during 1v1 fights.”
    • “Performance is meh, changing settings doesn't seem to affect much; if you don't have a high-end rig, I would honestly not bother at this point.”
  • grinding
    15 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be both extensive and frustrating, often requiring significant time spent farming mobs, bosses, and resources to progress. While some enjoy the challenge and the strategic elements of grinding, many criticize the imbalance in character abilities and the tedious nature of the gear system, which can detract from the overall experience. Overall, the game appeals to those who appreciate grinding mechanics, but it may feel overwhelming or monotonous for others.

    • “Farming mobs, killing bosses, finding chests and NPCs to upgrade all while death closes in on you.”
    • “The battle royale mode is literally just farming mobs, which could be one of the most boring experiences of my life, and the tag team mode is unbalanced and has a very bad matchmaking system.”
    • “95% farming, 5% dying.”
  • monetization
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews; while some players appreciate the low-cost cosmetic microtransactions and lack of pay-to-win elements, others criticize it as a cash grab and express frustration over the presence of ads. Overall, the game is seen as needing better advertising to enhance its popularity, despite the relatively generous pricing of its cosmetic items.

    • “There are microtransactions in this game, but they are 100% only cosmetics. For about 3.4 euros, you can buy one of the most expensive skins, which is quite generous compared to other games with microtransactions.”
    • “On top of this, they have opted to include microtransactions without a battle pass or anything. I'm not really opposed to this, honestly.”
    • “Microtransactions tend to be the bane of my existence, but so far this title doesn't have too many.”
    • “Reminds me strongly of some MOBA smartphone games with pay-to-win mechanics and plastered with ads.”
    • “Honestly, I feel like this is the biggest cash grab.”
    • “Buggy, laggy cash grab.”
  • story
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's storytelling is noted for its unique approach, particularly evident in the training arena and tutorial, which adds to the overall enjoyment. However, some users feel that there is a lack of a substantial narrative, with one reviewer simply stating, "no story."

    • “It has a very unique way of telling its story, and that's just in the training arena and the tutorial that I saw.”
    • “The game is actually fun and enjoyable from what I've experienced in the training mission, and one match with 8 players (max 60).”
    • “No story.”
    • “End of story.”
  • stability
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The stability of the game has received mixed reviews, with some users highlighting significant delays in skill activation and a lack of responsive combat mechanics, leading to a perception of it being a "buggy unfinished mess." While there are no major crashes or severe technical issues reported, players note that the game still exhibits various bugs and lag, suggesting it may benefit from further development before full release. Overall, while it can be enjoyable, many recommend waiting for improvements or a sale before purchasing.

    • “Also, chaining attacks or combos are non-existent in this game; skills activate 2 seconds after you press them. Same for blocking and dodging. It's a buggy, unfinished mess that does not deserve to even be out yet. Go buy Naraka; at least that will have a dev that knows a little more about combat and games.”
    • “Buggy, laggy cash grab.”
    • “In-game voice can be a bit buggy too.”
  • replayability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users note that while many games offer replayability, the abundance of new releases and engaging features can make it challenging to revisit older titles. This suggests that while replayability exists, it may be overshadowed by the constant influx of new gaming experiences.

    • “The game offers a multitude of choices that significantly change the outcome, making each playthrough feel fresh and exciting.”
    • “With various character builds and strategies to explore, I find myself coming back for more every time.”

    The music in the game is generally well-received, with users appreciating its blend of styles reminiscent of PUBG and League of Legends, contributing to a comfortable and engaging atmosphere. The art style complements the music, enhancing the overall experience.
