The gameplay is generally described as fun and engaging, with some unique mechanics and the introduction of a "hero" card adding diversity. However, many players express frustration with network errors, poor merging mechanics, and a lack of originality, likening it to a clone of other games. While the game shows potential for improvement, issues like microtransactions and a snowball effect in matches detract from the overall experience.
- “The introduction of a 'hero' card and its own abilities and health is a very good idea to help diversify gameplay.”
- “Been playing since last October when it came out, it has really gotten better in the overall gameplay experience.”
- “Fun gameplay with a newer mechanic to me.”
- “Very poor Clash Royale knockoff with all of the microtransactions and none of the gameplay.”
- “The completely random gameplay is painfully frustrating and extremely rewarding every time I play a round.”
- “Game is well polished, but design is inherently flawed - matches are snowbally, no skill expression, no catch-up mechanic.”

The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players criticizing it for excessive microtransactions and a pay-to-win model, while others appreciate the optional ads that provide rewards without being forced. Some users find the VIP battle pass overpriced and express frustration over slow progression and underpowered cards, yet a few commend the lack of mandatory ads and the ability to play for free. Overall, the game is seen as a cash grab by some, but others are willing to support it if it avoids the pitfalls of similar titles.
- “As long as it doesn't go in the same monetization path as its counterpart Random Royale, both under the same company, then I can see a good future. If it continues to do so, I wouldn't mind supporting it out of loyalty instead of as a way to progress.”
- “Works okay on the cellular network but uses more than 1GB of data in a month even when I watch no ads!”
- “Very poor Clash Royale knockoff with all of the microtransactions and none of the gameplay.”
- “Poor UI, insane amount of popups to try to get you to pay to win, and very slow progression make this game an obvious cash grab.”
- “But the $20 VIP battle pass is very overpriced, then you still have to watch ads on top of that for other benefits.”

However, others still enjoy the grind, describing it as fun and reminiscent of classic gaming experiences.
- “My 2nd and 3rd week of grinding, I didn't see a single legendary.”

- “I've been wasting my time grinding, but all in vain...”

The game's stability is frequently criticized, with players reporting issues such as freezing during co-op connections and glitches at the end of matches that result in lost wins and trophies. Many users express frustration over network instability and bugs that disrupt gameplay, detracting from their overall enjoyment of the game. Despite these issues, some players still find the game fun but are disappointed by the recurring technical problems.
- “When we are trying to connect for co-op, it freezes sometimes and then takes a life when you restart.”
- “At the end of the match (I use Wi-Fi only), the game freezes right where the game ended and it says something like 'network problem' and returns to the game's main menu.”
- “I love the game still; however, I have noticed that around half of my wins, the game glitches at the end of the battle. Now I watch the boss go through the opposing gate just for it to tell me the network is unstable, and I lose my win and my trophies I won. Not cool.”

Players appreciate the game's originality and long-term playability compared to similar titles, indicating a strong potential for replayability. However, some users suggest that adding social features like guilds and a friends list could enhance the experience and encourage more player engagement. Overall, the game shows promise for sustained enjoyment.
- “I really enjoy this game; they really do try to be original and seem to be making this game a lot more playable long-term than most games of the same type. I would like it if they added guilds and a friends list, though it would make the game more social and give more reason to invite more players. But so far, it's a great tower defense game, and I can't wait to see what all is to come.”
