### 3/5 — Update

*2025-04-16, version 1.1*

It has several so called updates and events added but they never appear and my app is always up to date so idk if anyone else has this issue bc like no one talks in game

### 2/5 — Lowkey cheeks

*2025-04-16, version 1.1*

This game looks good but gameplay is lowkey super mid. I was allured by the actual gundam characters and the 3D models. Little did I know, the actual gameplay was just a “sit and watch” type game, I legit did nothing and still won after pressing the A.I feature. Without the 2x feature, I’d already delete the game since it’ll be so slow. ALSOOOO, why is the 4x speed feature locked behind a user account level????? I was told that I could get a “vip code” but I was forced to do absolutely EVERYTHING the tutorial said, there was no freedom and user control…  Not to mention how janky and confusing some of the UI animations were, I didn’t know what was happening half the time. During the actual “fighting” parts of the game, the “final attack” animations were decent, however they weren’t final whatsoever and many were required to kill a single enemy so each animation just got kind of obnoxious after some time. I’d like to play the game once a lot of the details and explanations were more refined since the story can be so easily skipped over and ignored, it’s legit just png’s with text over them. Please just refine everything to make it look better 😭

### 1/5 — Update

*2025-04-15, version 1.1*

Every single time the update just keep restarting automatically when it’s finish, and I stuck on the screen for over 3 hours with no progress.

### 1/5 — Glitchy unlicensed mess

*2025-04-07, version 1.1*

Mildly interesting at first but it’s just your garden variety gacha game. If you want to click some buttons and waste time go for it.
Glitchy game with broken English everywhere.

### 1/5 — A matter of time

*2025-03-19, version 1.1*

I have nothing against the team who developed this and I respect the business venture. However, let’s be honest it’s a cash grab because it’s unfortunately not officially licensed so they will get copyright struck in due time. The game however, is not terrible and it’s a decent little app to pass some time like 5-10 minutes per day because it’s that fast to do your daily tasks.

### 4/5 — nice game

*2025-03-15*

the game is great, and I love how the cool suits like the unicorns or GN00 suits arent too hard to get (ive been playing for a week and my main lineup is Phenex, Kimaris Vidar, Dynames, Cherudim, and Zabanya. I just wish the campaign wouldnt level lock you. i hate that i can only progress through 5 campaign levels then i have to wait to level up 2 levels. But other than that, collecting the MC suits is really fun and cool

### 5/5 — Account banning

*2025-03-08, version 1.1*

My account was banned and I wasn’t told the reasoning or even given a heads up befoe hand I wasn’t aware that you couldn’t request a refund but honestly I never requested a refund

### 1/5 — Got Scammed?

*2025-03-05, version 1.1*

I purchased the $0.99 pack and was charged $19.99! What’s going on with this game? Looks legit and is fun, but get your code straight! I’ll update my review when the rest of my money is returned!

EDITED after Developer Response: No, I made a single $.99 purchase and I haven’t made any other Apple purchases in weeks. I purchased the $.99 package and when it popped up after I confirmed, I saw my card tell me I was charged $19.99. My account notifies me of transactions with a pop up notification. This notification occurred directly after the purchase. Just check your system.

### 2/5 — Too slow and dailies don’t make sense

*2025-03-04, version 1.1*

From the beginning the progression is pretty good but it quickly plateaus. The cost to upgrade past 2 red star is insane. 
Doing dailies takes 10-20 minutes and you aren’t actually doing anything, you’re just clicking through accepting small rewards and saying no to the same very poor purchases. 
The purchases for their cost not only don’t make sense, they’re not worth it at all. 

The randomness of lotteries is rigged for sure. I have an example of ten times where the best thing you could spin for, was always last. It’s never truly random, it’s an offensive cash grab. 

Apparently the game is also not officially licensed so we may not see it for long. 

The story progression is also very quickly capped as you are stuck not being able to regularly upgrade mechs. 

The developers must have never designed a game before, this one is in need of a lot of work.

### 1/5 — Waste of time it’s Pay To Win

*2025-03-01, version 1.1*

This game is almost impossible to succeed in without spending a lot of money. They hook you early with good rewards, but to progress further, be prepared to spend at least $100+ USD. For someone like me, things get even worse since everything costs double or even triple what it should. So it’s a-bit frustrating to be locked behind a paywall. If this game weren’t so pay-to-win, it could easily be game of the year. It’s a real shame because it has great potential

Yeah, they have events and stuff like that for F2P (Free to Play) players, but what’s the point of participating? When The whales just buy everything to get to the top of the event, so it feels pretty pointless and unfair.
