The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players praising its fun mechanics, engaging graphics, and strategic depth, particularly in card collection and match-3 elements. However, numerous complaints highlight issues such as repetitive gameplay, a steep learning curve, frequent and disruptive updates that render previous investments obsolete, and a strong emphasis on pay-to-win mechanics that detract from the overall experience. While some players find the gameplay addictive and enjoyable, others express frustration over the game's monetization strategies and technical issues, leading to a divided reception.
- “The underlying combat mechanic is very pleasing and will keep you checking in on the recovery of your stamina to play again.”
- “The gameplay is fun and innovative, but after a few weeks/months it goes nowhere.”
- “The graphics are amazing, the gameplay is seamless.”
- “The gameplay feels extremely slow (mostly watching unskippable useless animations and for UI), no autoplay to finish easy games, the board darkens too much between moves, and the colors are all washed out (oh my eyes!). Very unintuitive interface, lots of weird resources appear as needed without any explanation of what they are and where to get them... trash.”
- “Every time you get a decent set of decks, they change the mechanics and all your stuff is obsolete.”
- “This game has been destroyed with poor drop rates, broken game mechanics, and poor card skill implementations that make decks as recent as last week unusable. Avoid this game at all costs; it's on life support at the moment, a pitiless sinkhole for cash and time that will leave you feeling empty.”

The monetization model of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many players labeling it a "cash grab" due to high prices for in-game purchases and aggressive advertising tactics. While some users acknowledge that it is possible to play for free with dedication, the overwhelming sentiment is that competitive play requires substantial financial investment, often leading to frustration over the perceived exploitation of players. Frequent updates have further exacerbated these concerns, rendering previous investments in the game less valuable and pushing players towards costly microtransactions.
- “Great graphics, huge numbers of detailed heroes, a bit overwhelming at first but still really fun... also the monetization is pretty generous; you get a lot of gems at the beginning and some here and there later to complete most parts of the events.”
- “Hours of fun could be had without spending a dime, but not if you are competitive, and the never-ending in-app purchase requests are very tiresome.”
- “This is a fun game that you can play for free although you do have the option of making in-app purchases to progress faster.”
- “The in-game purchase prices are almost criminal.”
- “While the game used to be fun, it has become a disturbingly greedy cash grab milking its players for everything they can get.”
- “This game is nothing but a cash grab for developers, more with each update.”

- “All the cards are artfully designed as well as they all come together to tell a cool story!”
- “The storylines of each character are so intricate and the universe is extensive.”
- “Great graphics, game control very easy and so far the plot has me playing for hours.”
- “Completely lacking in a tutorial (like, doesn't even tell you how the game functions, much less how to fight or gain heroes outside of spending real money), dumps you straight into the store with zero explanations, not even any backstory to the 'plot'.”
- “References to quest storyline, side quests, max leveling your character, open world, etc. are nonsense and do not exist in this game.”
- “The game is pay-to-win, the stamina system is pitiful so you can only go on two missions at a time, and each event type requires you to spend gems getting a specific type of unit.”

The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with frequent reports of freezing, crashing, and lagging during gameplay.

Despite some users enjoying the gameplay, the persistent technical problems and lack of effective customer support have resulted in a negative overall impression regarding the game's stability.

- “Awesome graphics, no freezes yet, and really addicting and fun.”
- “The game freezes and becomes non-responsive to touch, closes itself sporadically, refuses to load, and causes your phone to overheat. The game itself is extremely repetitive; essentially, it is nothing but a glorified Candy Crush.”
- “Game constantly freezes and support lies and denies it rather than fixing it.”
- “I have been playing for a couple of years now. This game used to be fun, but lately, I can't even play due to the game crashing within minutes of logging on. I was a paid VIP, and the benefits are nowhere near worth the $30 a month. Not to mention I've lost many gems and rewards that I bought and paid for yet never received them due to game crashing. I canceled my VIP subscription. It seems with all the new updates and changes, the game lags way too much and freezes. It has been very disappointing.”

- “Game used to be loads of fun...now the developers care more about taking your money than making the game fun...they have killed slayer events and made commander events a slow tedious grind that leaves you wishing someone would burn your eyes out with a hot poker.”
