The graphics of the game have received widespread praise for their high quality and detail, often described as some of the best seen in mobile gaming. However, many players express frustration over performance issues, such as lag and crashes, particularly after updates that have altered the graphics. Additionally, there are calls for more customizable graphics settings to accommodate a wider range of devices, as some players find the game unplayable on lower-end hardware. Overall, while the graphics are a highlight, they are marred by technical issues and a perceived shift towards a pay-to-win model.
- “The graphics are amazing and I love how they did the game; it's so fun and there are a lot of robots, so I will continue playing.”
- “Graphics are amazing, gameplay is smooth, matchups are great. As a free-to-play player, I'm happy to see that despite the premium pay-to-win items giving a major advantage, the free-to-play aspect still holds up as it did in the past.”
- “The graphics are great for a mobile game, and it runs well on low-end phones.”
- “The graphics have gotten worse, looks like a game from the 90's, disgusting.”
- “The remastered version has horrible graphics, full of shiny, splash effects that impede your view of what is going on.”
- “I did put 5 stars but ever since the change the graphics it sucks like hell!!!!.....background was so bad that you can't see the enemy at distance background all blend in can't see where you firing at!!!!!...i would recommend not to play this game it be waste of time.....i actually invested time and money ....now....i can't play anymore....who ever update this game he or she don't know what the hell is doing.....basically remaster the game kills all originality.”

The monetization model of the game has drawn significant criticism, with many players labeling it as a "cash grab" due to the high costs of in-app purchases and the overwhelming number of ads.

- “The monetization seems decent so far, about what you expect from this sort of game.”
- “It's a fun game, but monetization has been intense.”
- “In-game purchases are very expensive in real money and give a substantial in-game advantage.”

- “The different weapons and mechanics for each robot turns each round into a new fun experience.”
- “The gameplay is great, don't get me wrong!”
- “The gameplay is fun and really exciting.”

- “Gameplay is often quite exciting, but the necessary upgrades to keep up with a decent level of gameplay are way overpriced.”
- “This game is beyond what I expected; the gameplay, controls, and graphics are absolutely amazing, but the gameplay itself is very slow.”

The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with frequent reports of freezing, lagging, and crashing during gameplay. Many players experience issues such as the game freezing during battles, loading screens, and after watching ads, leading to frustration and loss of progress. Despite some improvements in graphics and gameplay, the persistent glitches and lack of timely fixes from developers have left many players dissatisfied and unable to enjoy the game fully.
- “No glitches, no bugs, no ads, no losing progress; nothing bad about it.”
- “Good game, there are no glitches.”
- “Great game, no glitches or problems; really fun, cool sounds, maps, and bots. I hope all the players enjoy it!”
- “The game is unstable; it can't keep up with the amount of stuff happening in battles, making it very laggy and jerky. By the time your robot actually deploys, you automatically die because the game can't register spawning or shooting. In the past 5 battles I played, it either freezes and crashes or doesn't deploy my robots at all. I've tried contacting the developers about this issue but keep getting the same response of them saying to check my Wi-Fi. It's not the Wi-Fi; it's your game.”
- “Game constantly freezes and boots you from matches. It lags, it freezes, and the matchmaking, which was changed 4 years ago, is still terrible.”
- “The latest update sucks; the game freezes a lot and never works again unless I close it and reopen it. Besides, the black market rewards for 10 and 100 cards are the worst and mostly a waste of time and effort collecting cards from battles.”
grinding

The grinding aspect of the game has received overwhelmingly negative feedback, with many players expressing frustration over the excessive time and effort required to progress without spending real money. While some enjoy the grind as part of the gameplay experience, the consensus is that the game has shifted towards a pay-to-win model, making it nearly impossible for free-to-play users to compete effectively. Overall, players feel that the balance between grinding and rewards is skewed, leading to a tedious and often discouraging experience.
- “It's a pay to win game at this point if you want to be the best. I spent hours on here and I'm a grinding type of person, but when you get the perfect setup that you like, it gets destroyed because there is something new that is way better.”
- “The game is unbalanced and a heavy grind. Like every other review says, it's a pay to win game where money is obviously the main goal over player enjoyment. The game makes it near impossible to get higher tier robots by requiring components, which is okay, I like a little grinding, but not that much.”
- “Good game, but at higher levels it is nearly impossible to get newer robots and weapons without either paying tons of money (like around $100 for a single robot or weapon) or grinding for months for one weapon or robot.”

- “The lore of this game is literally the most nonsensical story ever written.”

- “I honestly didn't think it was possible to have worse performance and more lag in this game, but you proved me wrong with the remastered release.”
