  • graphics
    23 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with some players praising the good visuals and artistic style, while others criticize them for being buggy, low-quality, and reminiscent of older games. Many users express a desire for improved graphics options and customization, as well as smoother performance to enhance the overall experience. Despite the aesthetic appeal noted by some, technical issues and a lack of polish detract from the enjoyment for many players.

    • “Great graphics, soundtrack is a banger, and if you want to play solo you can or mix in PvP play for the challenge and reward!”
    • “Good graphics which you can adjust to suit your phone.”
    • “Also, the graphics are very good as you can see in the backgrounds they show while waiting for a battle to load.”
    • “Freezing up, glitching out graphics.”
    • “Graphics look unfinished.”
    • “Low quality graphics and buggy gameplay that will screw you over on missions and loot.”
  • story
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is marred by significant gameplay issues, including mission inconsistencies, frequent crashes, and a lack of meaningful progression due to microtransactions. Players express frustration over the repetitive nature of missions, poor map design, and the inability to save mission states, which detracts from the overall experience. While the game has potential, its execution is hindered by bugs and a paywall that limits access to content.

    • “It has much of the tabletop game feel, which is promising.”
    • “Should you send your best men to a mission, the opponent will simply be created with comparable units, creating some good possibilities to get permanent injuries curable by coins.”
    • “Missions swing wildly from not taking a single hit one mission and winning to not landing a single hit and having all your strongest characters out of action after two attacks.”
    • “There is very little difference between missions and maps.”
    • “Map design and placement of objectives make some missions impossible.”
    • “It stopped working in the middle of a mission (most of the time when you are winning) and when you come back to the game you get a minus in reputation as the game doesn't persist the state of the mission.”
  • gameplay
    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally solid and introduces unique mechanics, such as assigning tasks to different characters, but suffers from significant issues like matchmaking, healing mechanics, and a prevalent pay-to-win model. Players appreciate the strategic depth but express frustration over glitches, poor balance, and a lack of comprehensive rules or mechanics documentation. Overall, while the core gameplay is engaging, it is marred by technical problems and monetization strategies that detract from the experience.

    • “The upkeep, XP, and wound mechanics help drive the narrative of your gang, and sometimes it's better to run than get knocked out.”
    • “Core gameplay is solid and introduces some fun concepts to campaign play.”
    • “Really happy with the unique mechanics of assigning different gangers to different tasks each turn.”
    • “The healing mechanic is absolutely killing your player base; it should be battles skipped, not hours you're made to wait, as frankly it just makes me put the game down, not spend money.”
    • “Ridiculous game mechanics (no zones of control) with bad RNG where your hard-earned gangers are killed and all their stuff is gone.”
    • “Pretty much pure pay-to-win as a lot of the mechanics and any decent weapons all appear for money.”
  • stability
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is a significant concern, with frequent freezes and crashes, particularly during critical moments like loading screens and winning encounters, leading to lost progress and reputation. While some users report minor glitches, the overall experience is marred by persistent bugs and a clunky interface, suggesting a need for improved state-saving mechanisms during gameplay.

    • “Then the game freezes during the load screen for the battle.”
    • “Same issue that Simon reports: often when you are winning an encounter, it freezes the game, and once you reload, it is assumed you lost, resulting in a loss of reputation.”
    • “Game randomly freezes (oddly never when the AI is winning...) and on rebooting, the only option is to wear a loss for that session.”
  • grinding
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game tedious and repetitive, particularly when it comes to leveling up and acquiring basic equipment. The constant risk of severe injuries to characters and frequent attacks while gathering resources contribute to a frustrating experience, with some feeling that unlocking additional gangs requires either significant time investment or monetary expenditure.

    • “I didn't fancy repetitive grinding just to get basic equipment, let alone one of the gangs from the actual game.”
    • “But leveling up and buying gear is incredibly grindy, all the while hoping to avoid a random severe injury to one of your gangers.”
    • “Only a single gang choice, with either option being to spend £15 or more to unlock two out of four gangs or spend an insanely long time grinding to get them.”
  • monetization
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization model of the game has drawn mixed reviews, with players noting that significant content is locked behind high-priced microtransactions, such as a $17 fee to unlock all available gangs. While some appreciate the game's potential, many feel that the reliance on real-world money for advantages and the overall cash grab impression detracts from the experience.

    • “The game has a lot of potential, but the monetization model feels a bit heavy-handed, especially with the high cost of unlocking all the available gangs.”
    • “While the game captures the essence of the tabletop experience, the reliance on microtransactions can be frustrating for players who want to enjoy everything without spending extra.”
    • “I appreciate the effort put into the game, but the monetization strategy could use some adjustments to make it more accessible for everyone.”
    • “Long review: There are missions where the enemy must destroy a relic in your base. They can move through you and just run to it and destroy it. Filling the hallway leading up to it with gangers does not stop them. Some BS there. Money, money, money: it has much of the tabletop game feel which is promising, but with large portions of it behind microtransactions... well, not really micro since you have to pay $17 just to have all the available gangs unlocked.”
    • “There's a basically good game here but it seems unfinished (wounds don't seem to exist?) and of course microtransactions just make it annoying.”
    • “But the whole thing comes across as a cash grab.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is highly praised, described as a "banger" that enhances the overall aesthetic and fits well within the grim dark theme. Players appreciate the quality of the soundtrack, which contributes positively to the gaming experience, despite some frustrations with gameplay mechanics.

    • “Great graphics, the soundtrack is a banger and if you want to play solo you can or mix in PvP play for the challenge and reward!”
    • “The sound and music are good.”
    • “Awesome music, good aesthetic, keeps to the grim dark.”
  • optimization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The app offers enjoyable gameplay elements, but users report significant performance issues on mobile devices, including poor optimization that leads to battery drain despite quick load times. Further optimization is needed to enhance the overall experience.

    • “The game is otherwise pretty good, but it needs to be optimized a bit further. Quick load times, but it drains batteries quickly.”
    • “I'm enjoying this app for giving me some of the same feels of advancing my gang, picking out equipment and skills, etc. However, the performance on my phone is terrible.”
    • “The game has great potential, but the optimization is so poor that it often crashes during crucial moments.”
    • “I love the concept, but the lag and frame drops make it nearly unplayable on my device.”
