The graphics of the game are highly praised for their standout quality, featuring a distinct art style that accommodates both wacky anime aesthetics and more realistic settings. Players appreciate the attention to detail, such as lingering dust clouds in desert environments, although some minor graphical glitches and bugs have been noted. Overall, the visuals contribute significantly to an engaging gameplay experience, making it a noteworthy title in the tank game genre.
“I'm stunned that more people haven't heard about this game, so I'm going to try and spread the news about this, because this is the first tank game in a long time I can say plays absolutely flawlessly, fast and quick combat, a great soundtrack, and amazing graphics. What more could you ask from a game like this?”
“There's a wide range of units to play with (including helicopters!), and depending on your personal preferences, you can play full-blown wacky anime arcade or swap the settings for a more realistic aesthetic.”
“There are still some smaller bugs present (like your aiming reticle 'snapping' to edges, graphical glitches, wonky ballistics, etc) but these did not detract from the experience, in my opinion.”
“It's slightly anime - you can have your crew voiced by Japanese girls, and there are anime graphics settings.”
“Game is simple but the graphics really stand out; like in desert warfare, you even leave big dust clouds that linger.”

Players find the initial grinding experience frustrating due to the weak starting tanks, which can lead to a lack of enjoyment in early levels. However, purchasing tank expansions can provide a shortcut to better vehicles, making the grind more manageable. Ultimately, while grinding is necessary, many feel that the rewards are not always worth the effort.
“Grinding the first levels isn't fun at all because your first tank is terrible and can die incredibly easily. It feels like a chore rather than an enjoyable experience.”
“The game forces you to grind for tanks that aren't even worth it, and the only way to get a decent one early on is to pay for an expansion. It's frustrating to feel like you're being pushed towards a paywall.”
“Even if you grind normally, the game makes it clear that the best tanks are locked behind a paywall, which makes the grinding feel pointless and discouraging.”
