The cash, you barely start with any and it’s extremely hard to progress, and in my opinion it already was hard to progress in the early days of the game, but at least it was tolerable 2. I remembered there being a lot more robots in the game, around 20, I came back and I saw that there are now only 9, and yes, I know you can customize each and one of them which is an upside, but the downside is lots of the robots are locked behind a subscription AND the variety of types is gone, I remember there being robots named jaws, muzzle, dragon, alien, and much more, they were walker/spider themed robots and now they are gone, which were the most fun to play as in my opinion, so it’s really sad to see those for some reason removed from the game entirely. ### 2/5 — Bad *2025-11-30, version 14.2.10* This game is a dumpster fire, but hear me out it would be a good game if they fixed the camera angle, and closing stuff, but otherwise good game ### 1/5 — ACTUAL TRASH *2025-10-08, version 14.2.9* ACTUAL PUTRID GAME, never deleted a game so fast, wouldn’t even leave it a 1 star, had no choice tho👌 ### 1/5 — AWFUL APP *2025-09-07, version 14.2.8* VERY AWFUL APP AND RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING ### 1/5 — Can’t even play it *2025-08-11, version 14.2.8* It is almost impossible to play because of many glitches ### 1/5 — How do i do rhis *2025-06-23, version 14.2.7* I cant get to the actual game without paying for premium please help me ### 1/5 — I couldn’t even play it *2025-05-11, version 14.2.6* It was making me pay and I don’t have enough money to pay for it so don’t get it. ### 1/5 — What’s with the subscription *2025-05-03, version 14.2.6* I downloaded this game and every time I try to play it just asks for me to pay a subscription and you cannot close it off. Generic!!! ### 1/5 — terrible *2025-04-28, version 14.2.6* I am stuck at premium. I can’t get out. Can you please just start the trial? ### 1/5 — Everything that is wrong with gaming, shame on you *2025-04-18, version 14.2.6* Can’t play with out taking out subscription, not even worth one star ### 1/5 — Don’t download *2025-03-30, version 14.2.5* Money grab, way too difficult to play and no way to adjust controls ### 1/5 — Instant Pay Wall *2025-03-21, version 14.2.5* Able to download game. Unable to play game. First and only screen is an offer to upgrade to premium. Cannot “x” out of that screen. They should fix this. ### 1/5 — Won’t let me play *2025-03-19, version 14.2.5* It would not let me play unless I got the “premium “ which is 6.99$ I deleted it ### 1/5 — Too hard *2025-03-04, version 14.2.4* Start with minimal money so no little upgrades at the start to help and you mostly need premium to get the better stuff anyway also whenever you lose, you lose 40 silver and if you win you get 120 but when you lose you lose 40 silver plus you have to repair your robot and most people aren’t gonna wait that long to have their robot automatically repaired so they’re gonna repair it for the silver then they go into another battle and maybe they win and maybe they’ll get like a couple extra silver but if you don’t get anything else, it makes the game super hard to play please make the payout higher or make it so that you don’t have to repair your robot. It makes the game very difficult and unplayable also instead of having just four robots to use without premium at least get five or six ### 1/5 — Forced sub cost of $11.99 per week *2025-02-25, version 14.2.4* Why would you make people pay $11.99 per week to play your game??? There is no way I would pay that! You need to bring out a free version and just have this as a add on of anyone wants to get it ### 2/5 — , *2025-02-15, version 14.2.4* Didn’t let me off the go premium page thing ### 1/5 — Terrible game, don’t download. *2024-12-29, version 14.2.2* You have to pay $5/week just to play it. Edit: they say you can enjoy the basic version for free, NO YOU CANNOT. There is no such thing. When you load into the app, it takes you to a subscription screen. You cannot exit that screen without purchasing one of the two subscriptions; neither of which is free. ### 1/5 — Can’t play *2024-12-27, version 14.2.2* It is trying to make me buy something and I can’t exit it just can’t even play the game not worth the time ### 1/5 — Can’t play game without paying *2024-12-26, version 14.2.2* The game won’t let you play until you subscribe to vip pass ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bro what. Trash game *2026-08-28, version 14.2.14* Why i need a vip to play. Supscription game sucks. If theirs app store update i would rate this game 0 if possible ### 1/5 — Can’t play *2026-08-15, version 14.2.14* Download a “free” game. First page it loads is subscribe for….. £14.99 a month!!!!!! Deleted immediately ### 1/5 — Awful *2026-07-10, version 14.2.13* You have to PAY TO PLAY IT EVEN THOUGH THE GAME ITSELF IS FREE. ### 1/5 — Don’t get it *2026-06-22, version 14.2.13* Just don’t ### 1/5 — too expensive *2026-04-28, version 14.2.11* seven dollars per week LOL ### 1/5 — Do I have to pay to play *2026-04-04, version 14.2.11* So I got the app and the first thing I saw wasn't a tutorial but a subscription and I can't start playing without paying money. 0.1 star for the game ### 1/5 — . *2026-03-04, version 14.2.10* You literally can’t even play without buying “premium access” ### 1/5 — I have to pay? *2026-02-23, version 14.2.10* Any time I open the game it just asked me to pay for a premium subscription. It doesn’t let me exit out of that. It doesn’t even let me play the games annoying. Please make it free for ### 1/5 — Make a free version *2026-01-03, version 14.2.10* One star ### 1/5 — They just want you to get premium *2025-12-30, version 14.2.10* At the start of the game, they just want to get premium to actually play the game ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — JK *2025-05-24, version 14.2.6* JUST KiDDING😀😃😄😁😁😄😃😀😀😃😄😁😁😄😃😀😀😃😄😁 ### 5/5 — It’s fun *2024-01-22, version 14.1.3* I grew up on this. Looking back on it, I see the flaws, but it’ll be fine. ### 5/5 — Plz can you start with more money? *2023-12-10, version 14.1.2* If you are able to would you probably are I need you to make sure you start with at least $3000 in the game because you know you store for $100 or whatever it is 200 out right now my neck was the worst when I started with it or I got defeated three times actually I think you shouldn’t have to repair like I know the real BattleBots thing you have to repair your fame to go back and do the battles and stuff and I cost $75 of the game. I think you shouldn’t have to spend any money on Rya fixing it, so if you’re able to help do that oh, I’ll give you a pretty good rating five star but you need to do that ### 5/5 — Robots *2023-10-22, version 14.1.1* This game is cool and in the old days it had a lot of robots do you think you can try to put some old robots back in the game. that will be cool and a better experience for new players. ### 5/5 — Help *2023-09-04, version 14.0.3* So I can’t get in it stuck on a page that I can’t x of of ### 5/5 — Needs new graphics *2023-01-28, version 14.0.1* Used to be good about 5 years ago but needs an upgrade ### 5/5 — Thare is a problem *2022-05-25* I love the game but the problem is thare is no option to cancel the subscription I came back after a year to play and I tried to look for a cancel button cuz I don’t want to buy subscription and it gives me no option to decline is thare anyway to cancel it so I can play this awsome game again ### 5/5 — I can’t play *2022-05-09, version 12.13.3* I can’t play because every time I open the app I get a thing saying for sale and theres no exit I’m giving this a 5 because I don’t know if it is a good game or not ### 5/5 — three things that will change the game forever *2021-10-16* First things first. I recommend you to make it to where you unlock more bots as you complete battles. second things second. I suggest that you add more bots. Third things third. I suggest that you add ideas. These are ideas that are going to make the game better. ### 5/5 — Very fun *2021-07-25, version 12.13.1* I have nothing other too say then great it is a amazing game and has great options for robots I play this all the time it is a great game. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
