It is too hard ### 4/5 — Pretty good overall *2026-08-21* At the beginning at least let the player actually build the pocket bot ### 4/5 — Ads *2026-08-15, version 2.7.4* Fun but lots of ads ### 4/5 — OK *2026-07-28, version 2.7.4* I feel like this game is OK but it does need a Content update also when I watched a video of this game there were more features so why do you delete features in the game if they’re already good also one last thing why is the transformer pack so over priced ### 4/5 — I’m doing good but I’m stuck on the boss firstblood the other four before it were easy *2026-07-21, version 2.7.4* Please make it easier to defeat. ### 3/5 — It’s great, until it isn’t. *2026-07-18* Right off the bat, you notice that it’s a battle bots themed game. You start with putting together a robot by using different parts you unlock in a variety of ways. Then, you pit your machine against robots that have been created by other people all around the world that are about your level. Eventually you’ll start to notice that your opponents are able to do things to your bot that you can’t, such as ramming into you at high speeds, stun you, summon explosive helpers, and even become invincible for a few seconds. How do they do this? The answer is skill cards. Skill cards completely ruin the game by giving players an extremely unfair advantage over players who just want to win fair and square. The final reason why I gave this game a three out of five is because the controls are stupidly simple, and players can’t change the controls. Ideally, newer players would have the option to use the current controls and more experienced players would be able to have more control over the weapon(s) on their bot. I do not recommend downloading this game, despite the fact that it is free. Many of the adds are forced or interactive adds full of tricks designed to make you accidentally download the app being advertised. The game certainly isn’t kid friendly because of this. You can easily have just as much, if not more, fun by building LEGO and CIRCUIT CUBE battle bots and having them fight in a cardboard box. ### 3/5 — It’s fun but holy ads *2026-06-23, version 2.7.4* I’ve definitely spent some money on ad removal in this game and you still end up watching a bunch of ads like the game itself as fun as can be and would be a 10 out of 10 if they just had a true ad removal, you buy the ad removal and you still have to watch ads to claim your upgrades ### 3/5 — Good game idea, limited gear selection and gameplay *2026-06-18, version 2.7.4* Good game design and gameplay, though only offers 3 power levels, each with just a small selection of gears. More or less a pay to win game, unless you’re willing to keep watching ads. All in all an interesting game…..for about a week. ### 4/5 — Needs some updates *2026-06-17* Pls add more weapons and weapon types , instead of having the bots have health bars and Explode just have peace’s of the bot fall of as it it gets damaged more and if the bot has no wheels left then count it as a ko , and why is there no countdown for any bot that stops moving , 10 seconds of it didn’t move during the 10 second countdown count it as a ko , and why does the drum spinner spin Down instead of upwards ? ### 3/5 — Decent *2026-05-24, version 2.7.4* Not a bad game be better without the 1000s of Ads ### 4/5 — Very good *2026-05-23, version 2.7.4* It’s good not the best but better than most battle games I’ve seen ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 0 stars *2026-08-06, version 2.7.4* I’d give it 0 if I could. It’s an ad game #1, 2nd you play against NPCs that appear to be PC but they aren’t. Once you’ve played a bit it always puts you against bots 3X stronger than you. If you can push them off the map you win. Otherwise they’ll use item cards to beat you. An NPC doesn’t care how many cards they use. But yours are limited. This game is trash. ### 1/5 — P2W *2026-07-26, version 2.7.4* Great game ruined by pay to win mechanics, shame for the devs who actually made a great game for it to fall in the greedy mobile game bin and lost to history. Shame. ### 1/5 — Interesting Concept, Terrible Physics *2026-07-12, version 2.7.4* The concept of this was intriguing and the first few matches were fun but there are near-constant issues with the physics engine resulting in random damage, inconsistent driving, and weird problems with getting stuck and no way to actually move or even lose without forfeiting the match. Very glad I didn’t spend any money on this app, because it’s very buggy. ### 1/5 — PB:BR 1⭐️ *2026-06-15* Boring game nothing new in 2years just added ways for you to spend money but no new Bots just Money wasting add-ons no new Bots of prizes are to high to upgrade bots. Massive waste of time ### 1/5 — Needs a lot of work *2026-06-13* Could be a good game, to many adverts even if you buy to go ad free. Takes to long to build up coins to upgrade, trying to force you to purchase coins. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-06-04* Seen the first add. Straight away deleted it. Over these games having too many ads so every game that there is now that has even a single ad, I delete it. ### 1/5 — 광고가 개많음 *2026-06-03* 게임은 재밌는데 광고가 너무많음 ### 1/5 — Rewards *2026-06-01, version 2.7.4* You don’t get the rewards sometimes when the app freezes. ### 1/5 — Terrible game *2026-05-26, version 2.7.4* The game is awful, definitely don't put money into it. ### 1/5 — Can’t even play… *2026-05-25, version 2.7.4* I thought it was going to be fun but EVERY TIME I go in a battle the game just KICKS me out.for me at least…… ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-07-19, version 2.7.4* It’s a good game but WHY CAN’T YOU MAKE YOUR OWN WEAPONS!!!!!! ### 5/5 — GREAT DESIGN🤩 *2026-07-08, version 2.7.4* So this game is basically just battle bots but better and so much more fun😃 but the twist is that there are ads, soooooooo do us a favor and make the ads go away ### 5/5 — Fix the bugs *2026-07-06, version 2.7.4* I love this game but the red monster robots saw is full of bugs it bends every witch way and when I saw my enemies it does not go down even when I am waiting ### 5/5 — Flawless Game *2026-07-03, version 2.7.4* It’s a flawless game that I have ever played! it’ll be great this game can have some more new weapons ### 5/5 — Hell yeah *2026-06-30, version 2.7.4* Love it ### 5/5 — Needs an update asap! *2026-06-22* Please update, I have unlocked every boss and im fed up of winning most games. ### 5/5 — Fun but a little to many ads *2026-06-19, version 2.7.4* It’s a very fun game but just a very little to much ads at least for what I’ve seen for now but very good game ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-06-14, version 2.7.4* My son loves to play this ### 5/5 — Fun game *2026-06-05, version 2.7.4* Fun game, but the ads are ridiculous and no one‘s gonna pay actual money for no ads ### 5/5 — killing *2026-05-17, version 2.7.4* So I like destroying the robots and they don’t stand a chance --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
