The gameplay of the game is generally well-received, with many players praising its mechanics, graphics, and overall fun factor. However, issues such as matchmaking difficulties, server connection problems, and a perceived pay-to-win model have been highlighted as significant drawbacks. While the gameplay offers engaging and addictive experiences, some users feel it lacks depth and variety, leading to repetitive gameplay over time.
“The gameplay is excellent, the digital graphics are simply made and understood.”
“Amazing gameplay, easy control and amazing characters.”
“Great gameplay, strategy and an overall time killer.”
“They added a turret that completely ruined the gameplay.”
“Update killed the gameplay, plus obnoxiously long ads deleted!”
“The gameplay is stupidly boring too, just a worse tower defense in my honest opinion from what I can tell, the only way to level up units is to get them from chests, but those take so long to be available to open you're better off installing another app to wait it out.”

The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many players feeling overwhelmed by the excessive number of ads and microtransactions that hinder gameplay. Users report that watching ads often yields no rewards, leading to frustration and a perception of the game as a cash grab. While some players acknowledge the potential for enjoyment without spending money, the overall sentiment leans towards dissatisfaction with the ad-driven mechanics and the pressure to pay for in-game advantages.
“Microtransactions seem prominent but not necessary, at least at medium levels of play.”
“There are a bunch of microtransactions and loot boxes, but you can still have fun without paying a cent.”
“I understand that in-game purchases need to exist because game developers need money to help them make better games and whatnot.”
“It's a shame these money-hungry devs implement these features just for the quick cash grab.”
“The game has a significant amount of pop-up ads for you to buy their expensive products.”
“In summary, matchmaking is rigged to make you spend money; it pushes game offers in your face all the time, it's very much a pay-to-win game and it's riddled with ads for other pay-to-win games.”
