  • Very detailed and in-depth wrestling management simulation with extensive creative control.
  • Offers sandbox-style gameplay enabling players to build and book their own wrestling shows and storylines.
  • Developer is responsive and regularly updates the game, improving features and adding content.
  • Excessive paywalls requiring real money for most gameplay features such as creating wrestlers, titles, and accessing additional regions, making free play very limited.
  • Slow and difficult to earn in-game currency, making progression tedious without purchasing coins.
  • Technical issues including game crashes, glitches with title changes and saving progress, plus bugs causing loss of rewards and locked content.
  • monetization

    30 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Monetization in the game is heavily criticized for aggressive microtransactions, expensive in-app purchases, and frequent paywalls that hinder gameplay enjoyment, leading some players to view it as a cash grab. While ads are used as a way to earn in-game currency, their removal or reduction has caused frustration, though recent re-implementation improved perceptions. A few users appreciate the minimal ads and earning opportunities, but overall, the pricing model and monetization feel exploitative to many.

    • “This is amazing love this game I started playing it's simple and fun, like it's amazing no ads and you can earn the paid stuff for the most part. 10/5 stars.”
    • “Very premium with in-game purchases.”
    • “It's surely better without any in-game purchases!”
    • “Overall a fun base experience that could be a great game, but it's held down by ridiculous microtransactions.”
    • “Some further thoughts could be given to the pricing model - the game is expensive to buy outright, but you still need to purchase a lot of gold coins to create wrestlers/belts etc. You can watch ads to generate gold coins, which is a bonus.”
    • “But too much in-game purchases for matches like the elimination chamber or special guest referee.”
  • story

    29 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect is praised for its creativity, depth, and ability to craft diverse, interconnected wrestling storylines with rich character backstories. However, many users desire more features such as customizable characters, detailed feud storyboarding, varied storyline types, and a free or tutorial mode to ease new players in. Overall, the story mode is engaging for wrestling fans but could benefit from enhanced content, accessibility, and interactive storytelling options.

    • “Love the game, a lot to do, great characters, backstories are awesome and link from one company to another.”
    • “I like how you can start an organization at the lower level, for example I started one with youngblood rising at 14,000 fans and then built it up in a year game time and now sits at 98.4k. Also like how you can make the storylines and how you can really play things out.”
    • “If you’re a wrestling fan who loves strategy, storytelling, and booking dream matches, GM Wrestling is hands down the best game ever created.”
    • “Even the story mode (analyst dirt sheet review) is behind a paywall. Don't waste your time on this garbage game.”
    • “It gets very boring after a while of just simulating and not being able to watch any of your matches or have a plot or storyline to keep you entertained while doing the simulations.”
    • “Most of the fun and exciting things need to be bought. This is a waste of time. I know the creator needs money but make the story mode free. What's the point of adding a feature if it's not free?”
  • gameplay

    15 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is praised for its depth, features, and engaging mechanics like creating wrestlers and companies, but many users find it hindered by excessive paywalls and costly in-app purchases that limit progression and access to key elements. While some appreciate recent improvements and ad-based rewards, the balance between enjoyable gameplay and monetization remains a common frustration.

    • “I'm completely obsessed with the gameplay, features, and the future of this awesome game.”
    • “I love the mechanics and the way the game runs.”
    • “The game is fun; I really like the whole 'make a wrestler' and 'create a company' mechanics.”
    • “The gameplay is tedious, wrestlers tire quite quickly, so you need to either sit them out (ruining feuds) or pay for in-game currency to revive them.”
    • “A lot of options and mechanics are now locked behind a paywall, which is a big downer.”
    • “The paywall is way too much, in-app purchases are insanely expensive, and it's just to unlock some gameplay elements like tournaments, almost feels like a scam for a beta game.”
  • music

    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users frequently report issues with the game's music continuing to play in the background even after exiting the app, often requiring a forced close or device reboot to stop it. Many express frustration over the lack of a proper music toggle or mute option within the game. Additionally, some players miss the original in-game music and suggest features like adding match simulation sounds or customizable song selections for a more immersive experience.

    • “The only thing it needs is background music to make it even more immersive!”
    • “Game is good but I'm pretty bummed out that you guys removed the music that was in the game, I really loved the music in the game, but now it's gone.”
    • “I suggest you let us choose the songs from our files.”
    • “The menu music keeps playing after I exit the app (if the app is left in the background or in the 'recently used apps' section of my phone), so I have to force close the app to stop it.”
    • “In order to turn off the music, I have to reboot my mobile phone.”
    • “You must log out of the game in order for the music to stop playing.”
  • stability

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is generally good, with rare glitches reported by most users. However, some minor bugs and occasional glitches still occur, though the creators are responsive in addressing these issues.

    • “Only a trial version and quite buggy.”
    • “I would like some help, however, as my game has slight glitches.”
    • “Good but there are a little bit of glitches that need to be fixed.”
  • grinding

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game features a noticeable grind, with wrestlers tiring quickly and progress often requiring either downtime or in-game currency to continue. While grinding can feel tedious and may impact enjoyment, the game offers rewards for persistent play, balancing pay options with a fair grind-based progression.

    • “It's too soon to know the long-term impact of these restrictions. The gameplay is tedious because wrestlers tire quite quickly, so you need to either sit them out (ruining feuds) or pay for in-game currency to revive them.”
    • “I probably should take off a star for how grindy it can be, but it's just too fun.”
    • “Although there are some pay options for coins, this game does reward you for grinding.”
  • graphics

    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics are praised for being sharp and well-designed, with a preferred text-based style and appealing art and interface. While the visuals are appreciated, some users suggest that improved quality-of-life features alongside better visuals could enhance the overall experience. Overall, the graphics effectively support the game's creative and enjoyable gameplay.

    • “The graphics look sharp even though it's text-based, which I prefer.”
    • “Love the art style and interface; just missing the quality of life features to make booking more enjoyable and less of a slog.”
    • “This game is magnificent; it allows you to make creative decisions and has good graphics.”
    • “Better visuals will go a long way as well.”
    • “Love the art style and interface just missing the QoL features to make booking more enjoyable and less of a slog.”
  • replayability

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Replayability is hindered by the slow earning rate of in-game points and the high cost of purchasing new wrestlers, limiting customization and variety. Players desire easier roster changes and more game modes to keep the experience fresh, as the reliance on spending real money reduces motivation for continued play.

    • “I was wrong about it not starting, just have to scroll down to see the match types. The only fault I see in the game now is the rate at which you earn points that convert to coins. Increase the points earned or lower the cost to buy new wrestlers to keep the game interesting and make it replayable. There should be easier ways to release and sign wrestlers so every game and every player has a different feel to fit their preference or likes, as the game is very "un-customizable" currently.”
    • “Love the amount of creativity the game allows for, but I wish there were a few more features and modes to add more variety and replayability.”
    • “I have bought something before but the prices now are abnormal. Also, what's the point of the in-game coin if I can't even buy wrestlers with it? To buy new wrestlers, I have to spend money. Then what's the replay value? If I have to spend money every time I play, why would I continue playing?”
    • “Love the amount of creativity the game allows for, but I wish there were a few more features or modes to add more variety and replayability.”
  • optimization

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the game well-optimized for mobile, resulting in smoother and less clunky gameplay compared to its predecessor. However, many suggest adding numerous features and modes—such as additional wrestler divisions, varied arena types, storyline and draft modes, and enhanced management options—to further improve the overall experience.

    • “I would have created 16 more options available, including female wrestler divisions, various arena types like a suburban backyard or high school gym, story mode, draft mode, merchandise sales boosting popularity, social media modes for wrestlers to earn income, cross-promotion with other leagues, hall of fame induction, valet/manager modes, weekly newsletters with injury and free agent reports, contract negotiation clauses, damage control for bad publicity, and hospital modes with detailed injury and recovery options.”
  • humor

    The humor is light and amusing, eliciting genuine laughter from players.

  • emotional

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find the game emotionally uplifting, praising it for bringing happiness, smiles, and a sense of improvement beyond their expectations.

    • “The game is the best game. You made me think that there can be a better game than WWE. You made me happy, you made me smile, and you made me feel better.”
