  • gameplay
    34 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating its smooth controls, fun mechanics, and nostalgic elements, particularly in multiplayer modes. However, issues such as unbalanced online play, repetitive missions, and technical glitches have been highlighted as significant drawbacks. Overall, while the gameplay is generally enjoyable, there are calls for improvements, especially in balancing and addressing bugs.

    • “Fantastic game, not as good as the original, but extremely nostalgic to play after years of gameplay.”

    • “Great graphics and gameplay, always keeps me coming back for more.”
    • “I hate this game. The gameplay is okay, but I would never try to buy in-game items with real money because you will lose your money and you won't even get what you bought; it's a scam.”
    • “A great game, but sometimes the co-op gameplay gets repetitive and annoying (especially in heroic mode). May I suggest the bosses have introductions?”
    • “I can't seem to get my money back in the game. Once I delete it and reinstall it, I log back in and I'm poor again. I have absolutely nothing and have to start from scratch. Also, the gameplay is poor because it lags like crazy and I can't aim right. It seems I can't do much in this game. Can you please fix this in the next update? Thanks!”
  • monetization
    23 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to excessive and intrusive ads that disrupt gameplay and hinder user experience. Many players report issues with in-app purchases, including failures to receive purchased items and a lack of developer support, leading to frustration and claims of fraudulent charges. While the game itself is enjoyable, the aggressive monetization tactics have left many users dissatisfied and recommending against making in-app purchases.

    • “The game is fun, yes, very nice, but there is one issue regarding your in-game purchases.”
    • “Well, the gameplay is fun and all, but in-app purchases make any 7-year-old with money overpowered, while those who grind will take a while to get a sword, bow, or gear.”
    • “Do not download... in-app purchases fail every time with the ability to restore purchases, yet where's the product you purchased? No one knows, and when contacting the developer, there is no response. I'm claiming fraudulent charges with my bank and filing a claim against the developer.”
    • “Never received in-app purchases or a response when I tried to fix the problem.”
    • “Why in the hell are there too many ads? I can't even sign up because the ads always take me back to the title screen. I didn't spend over $50 on this game just to get previews of what the best games in the app store are.”
  • stability
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The stability of the game is frequently criticized, with users reporting numerous glitches, freezes, and crashes, particularly during gameplay and mission transitions. Many players express frustration over the lack of updates and developer responsiveness to these issues, which detracts from their overall experience. While some users appreciate the game's graphics and controls, the persistent technical problems remain a significant concern.

    • “Works great on my AT&T LG G Pad Pro 7.0, no glitches. I love playing Mutant; the maps and weapons are fantastic.”
    • “A few seconds after I enter the main menu, the game freezes.”
    • “Game always crashes or freezes when I open it, huge disappointment.”
    • “Fix that damn bug because it's so annoying. It happened since the last update; every time I play in PvP, it freezes my screen and I can't move, and I'm being killed by other players.”
  • grinding
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be a mixed experience; while some enjoy the challenge and fun of grinding for rewards, others feel that the missions can be tedious and the process of earning in-game currency is overly time-consuming. Many suggest that improvements could be made to make farming easier and more accessible, particularly for lower-level players. Overall, the game is praised for its enjoyment factor, but the grinding mechanics could benefit from adjustments to enhance player satisfaction.

    • “For some reason, the game has tedious single-player missions; half of them are 'achieve this amount of combos' or 'get this many kills with this expensive weapon.' But other than that, the game is amazing!”
    • “It would also be nice if there could be another way of getting gold because grinding in infinite maps takes a long time, in my opinion.”
    • “Guys, this game is fun with good graphics and all, but at least make farming easy. Getting a 3 million weapon is not easy at low level, and also make the tutorial extend to how people can change armor color and change PvP level to their comfortable one because higher-level players are unfairly taking advantage of lower-level players and killing them easily.”
  • music
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users express frustration with the game's music functionality, noting that it continues to play even when sound settings are turned off, particularly on the home screen. While some appreciate the existing music, there are calls for more campaign tracks to enhance the experience. Overall, the music aspect is seen as needing improvement to align better with user preferences.

    • “Make more music for the campaign; it's one of the best games ever! You should download this. I'm going to tell my friends to download this amazing game.”
    • “Needs music added, and I'll give a 5-star rating.”
    • “Can't figure out what causes it, music still plays even when on the home screen until the app is force closed.”
    • “Can you fix the fact that it still has sound for the top 2 pistols, the red ones? Even though they shoot 4 beams at once, it sounds horrible. I have the sound off for the game because I listen to my own music; please take the sound off when I have it off.”
  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Reviews on optimization are mixed; while some users praise the game's graphics and controls as well-optimized for Android, others criticize it for being poorly optimized, indicating performance issues that detract from the overall experience.

    • “The graphics are awesome and optimized for Android, making for a smooth gaming experience.”
    • “The controls are also good, enhancing the overall gameplay.”
    • “I can be something like target practice where your performance determines how much mithril you earn, with a maximum of 100 per long yet successful game.”
    • “Your game is poorly optimized.”
  • humor

    Players feel that improved controls could enhance the game's replayability by making it more enjoyable and less frustrating, as it would prevent players' fingers from obstructing the view during gameplay.
