While the game is generally considered visually appealing, there are calls for further enhancements to keep it competitive with other titles in the genre.

    • β€œFantastic graphics.”
    • β€œGreat game so farπŸ‘, not a pay to play - cool graphics, plenty of resources and bonuses to rack up gold and silver to level up or buy better bots.. no complaints yet, hopefully nothing changes!”
    • β€œNice realistic graphics, fun intense play and nonstop action.”
    • β€œThe aesthetics just didn't do it for me.”
    • β€œClunky, interface from the 1990's, graphics from the 80's, sounds are annoying and cause teeth gnashing.”
    • β€œNext to no customization, graphics are outdated and ugly, next to no selection and what is available is too expensive or level locked, and the design of the robot feels like they were done as an afterthought not a main idea, which they are since they are essentially the main characters in the game, just could be way better if the devs actually tried to look like they cared.”
  • gameplay37 mentions

    Overall, the gameplay is praised for its fun, engaging mechanics and smooth, fast-paced action, making it addictive and enjoyable for players. While many appreciate the graphics and fluid controls, some users express concerns about balance issues, lengthy tutorials, and the presence of pay-to-win elements. Suggestions for improvement include enhancing the upgrade system, adding strategic elements, and refining the crafting mechanics.

    • β€œFun, engaging, and beautiful, the mechanics are awesome, and the game is definitely addictive.”
    • β€œSmooth gameplay and fast-paced fighting make for quick and satisfying matches.”
    • β€œGreat mechanics, very fun, great job!”
    • β€œThat means several years (literally) of watching ads and gameplay to make up for real money.”
    • β€œA lot better than War Robots in gameplay and grind factor, but the component/blueprint crafting system is unbalanced. It takes 500k for a 3-day wait time to get 150 blueprints, and it should be made repeatable to get weapons. In short, make it like War Robots' workshop system. Also, there is a random glitch with the servers where it switches country servers. Please fix the bug.”
    • β€œThe only drawback I see is that the controller mechanics are a little wonky.”
  • monetization30 mentions

Overall, the game is seen as fun and engaging, but the reliance on ads can hinder the experience, especially as players progress.

    • β€œThat means several years (literally) of watching ads and gameplay to make up for real money.”
    • β€œUninstalled again, forgot you have to wait hours to upgrade or pay double to get it now or watch 20 ads to get it.”
