GFL 1
Been playing since 2019 and have been loving almost every aspect of it. It’s what got me more into the firearm space and end up owning pure clone rifles because of this game. But I digress. For newcomers coming from Exilium, welcome. Hope you enjoy the storytelling as much as I did, which I believe this series played in a part of creating the trope of “ooh game about anime girls and guns”, to the darkest and grittiest plots you expect from a war themed genre thru PEAK story-telling. Every new gacha game I started, they immediately get placed on the back burner whenever a new chapter came out for this game, even GFL 2 at times.
From a game aspect, pretty overly forgiving when it comes to rolling for the Tactical Dolls and their dupes (dummies) if you be patient and play the waiting game to collect resources. As long as you have the production tix, you can just keep on rolling.
Small rant:
Even though I put 5 stars, it’s more of a 4.5 as there have been collabs with multiple media like the Gunslinger Girl, The Division, Va11-Ha11a, Ghost in the Shell, etc., with no more reruns with only Arena: Breakout being the only collab that did. I get the IP ownership and copyrights but it’s just my small gripe since there are T-Dolls, and exclusive equipment sets that I missed and can’t get anymore. Same with the monthly log-in 3* dolls and other equipment featured that barely get featured in the Grey Zone area. But as for everything else, 5*

Veryyyy good
Amazing character design gameplay and story
> Does it have plot?
> It has anime girls
Better than the second
The gameplay is a logistics fan dream, the T-dolls being based on and having the names of irl firearms is just such a great concept. I enjoyed this vastly more than the second.
Buggy
My screen always has this loading thing on it regardless of if I sign in or not and it’s hella annoying. Plz fix this bug. Like I’m logged into the game but this loading thing is there blocking half my screen
Boring
As a new player, the game is very difficult to invest in. I think whole gacha system and grinding is too complicated for me. Gameplay bores me. There is no against the game. It looks really nice. I love the art and girls.
2025 Review
It’s pretty good to my surprise, When I saw this i compared it to the new one, But when I downloaded it and played it, it was pretty good even if this game is older than 5 years..I love the gameplay and Gacha so. so if you’re looking for a nice and simple game that is fun and kinda addictive, this is it. ALSO if you don’t have THAT MUCH storage you can always play this UNTILL u get a new device or more storage to play the new one..SO this is a game for people that doesn’t have that much storage.

i love the game
Been playing this game since 2018 love the story and everything else! I really hope the game doesn't shut down like the other developer did to other games😭
App size with no pc port
The game itself is fun, however due to its size and lack of optimisations, it takes up way too much space and overall is a laggy experience. I do not recommend playing this until it gets a pc port.
need chinese
chinese plz😭
Curtain call for an outdated game I personally loved for years
Girls' Frontline is a pretty dated game. Girls' Frontline 2: Exilium now being out makes this game feel really old, but it's still gold. Haven't played this game since its start, but have been playing long enough to see how much it's grown.
I continue playing GFL1 alongside GFL2:Exilium because I always loved the first. Its story is a gripping one, taking place after WWIII with the rise of PMCs to power, along with the creation of mechanical android girls called T-Dolls, once built for civilian use; now used for combat. Those T-Dolls, each with their own personalities, character development, and stories, keep me playing. There's heart in how these T-Dolls are written, and I love not only their bios, but their sprite artwork.
Artwork for this game has always been a joy to admire and critique. It doesn't disappoint; most of it I love <3
Gameplay's a different story. It's outdated. If you start this game now because of GFL2:Exilium, you'll see a stark contrast to the game design methodologies used for both games. You may get bored playing this game because it's really slow, and that's how the gameplay loop is. Turn-based mechanics are the same as GFL2:Exilium, but different with more linear pathways and fights being more automated. The inpatient will quit because of this, but the patient will be rewarded with more T-Dolls to unlock, unique gear, cool systems to toy with, and more story to read. Starting out playing this game my first time was just that: slow and a bit boring. But over time, it became more fun because I gave it time to get better, and it doesn't take very long to get better.
But given this game's age and with its last major event coming up, who knows if new players will have time to enjoy this game in full. This isn't a doom review to say the game's dying; in fact, I say this game was successful, lasting long enough to see GFL2:Exilium birthed into reality, with the story of GFL1 actually ending. I hope it continues, perhaps as a singleplayer game I could buy. If not, this is a gacha game worth continuing to log in, play, and spend on until it dies.

Bug
So I used to play this game a lot, and it’s pretty fun for sure. However I tried to redownload for old times sake and found a fun little bug
Halfway through the download, the game will crash and west the download. Until this is fixed I can’t give the game a good review :)

App doesn’t work
The app crashes every 2 minutes and 11 seconds. It is unusable
Perfect blend of Tactical Warfare and Anime Genre
This application has a fond collection of Tactical Dolls of different styles and combat effectiveness, some are monthly (glad you can get them as drops from Campaign), and some are special from collaboration events. Sure some T-Dolls may be hard to obtain for your dream team or completion but the battle gameplay is flawless with the set of weapons, gear and skills each has. And in this commander’s opinion, obsoletely the greatest tactical game I’ve played

Wonderful game, but can no longer play or download game data
The game was a wonderful past time for a long time, but now due to unknown reasons you can’t download the full data of the game. The game is extremely storage dependent but about halfway through the download the game will crash and be unable to continue the download. Regardless of if you verify data files or such. Until it’s fixed I wouldn’t recommend downloading the game.
