The game's stability is heavily criticized, with numerous users reporting frequent freezing, glitches, and crashes that significantly hinder gameplay. Many players experience issues such as losing rewards after ads, being unable to progress past certain levels, and having to reinstall the game to resolve problems. Overall, the game's performance is described as a "buggy mess," detracting from the overall enjoyment.
“It's okay if you want a freeplay game, but I'd never spend money on it as it's so buggy. Often, you don't get the gold from the arena, the game freezes randomly, and if you watch the ads, they often take you off the app and you lose your reward. With some better coding, this could be a great game.”
“It's impossible to play after round 6; it freezes and gets stuck on the turf studio screen, so I have to reinstall it every time. Not worth downloading.”
“I can't even play the game because of how laggy it gets. Even offline, it just crashes and freezes itself, no longer allowing me to play the game or use my phone.”

“Good concept, less ads for a smoother performance.”
“So poorly optimized that your best bet is to max upgrade your weapons and stay off-screen. It crashes constantly and runs at 5 frames per minute. Besides that, you're bombarded by ads every second; you have a minimum of 5 ads after every round—4 optional and 1 mandatory. This is clearly a scam; don't get it, stay clear of this.”
“I know it's the ads bogging down the performance because when I turn off Wi-Fi, the game runs perfectly.”
