Simple, fun, and chaotic team tank shooter with four distinct vehicle classes and various weapons.
Well optimized and runs smoothly even on older computers.
Good singleplayer AI that behaves somewhat like human players, providing entertaining matches even without many online players.

Multiplayer is poorly implemented or effectively non-existent, with gameplay dominated by bots and no proper way to organize or play with friends.
Game balance issues, such as over-aggressive enemy AI, unbalanced weapons, and frustrating spawn mechanics reducing strategic depth.
Limited content with only two game modes, few maps, repetitive gameplay, and lacking progression or meaningful rewards beyond unlocking items.

The gameplay is noted for its tactical elements and entertaining aspects, particularly due to distinct tank classes with unique abilities, but suffers from significant balance issues, inconsistent mechanics, and limited progression. Movement and collision mechanics feel unpolished, and some weapons seem poorly integrated with maps. Overall, while initially engaging, the gameplay lacks depth and lasting appeal.
- “The gameplay is surprisingly tactical, since every tank class also has an important passive capability (healing, shield, ammo, respawn) - if nobody plays as artillery you're going to lose.”
- “This review doesn't go into all the mechanics or how fun it is in general but how fun it is from my perspective, and it's looking pretty good.”
- “If the developer keeps adding interesting gameplay elements then he could easily up the price later on too.”
- “Plenty of weapons, such as the sniper or cannon, were clearly not designed with the maps and gameplay in mind, and generally feel unfitting for the game you're playing.”
- “Is an entertaining game; however, it falls very short on the gameplay and progression.”
- “Also, the current state is unplayable because the mechanics aren't helpful.”

The graphics feature a distinctive cartoonish art style that adds to the game's chaotic and fun atmosphere, though they may not meet expectations for detailed or realistic visuals. While some players appreciate the artistic approach, others find the graphics less impressive compared to typical shooter games.
- “I especially like the art style.”
- “The cartoon-ish graphics are great and its chaotic nature provides a lot of randomness to the fun.”
- “In shooter games, graphics have always been very important to me, and Volted doesn't deliver very much on that front.”
- “I'm a very proud skeptical person and I usually don't like PvP games, indie games, no-story games, and potato graphics games.”

music

The game currently lacks any music in both gameplay and menus, which some users feel diminishes the experience. There is a desire for the addition of aggressive electronic music to enhance playability.
- “There are only 2 game modes which limits the playability and there is no music (rip) either in game or in the menu.”
- “The only thing this game lacks is some aggressive electronic music but I hope that the developer will add it really soon.”
