Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
90 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I had dropped the auto-chess games since the abandonment of Dota Underlords and while this is a very different game even in term of mechanics I think that's a good take on this type of games.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
62 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There are regular tournaments every few days, 1v1 or 2v2 or a 4 player brawl if you want to smash robots together with a few buddies, battles vs ai and some single player challenges - but the game is best enjoyed pvp.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
30 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Incredibly deep strategies, short matches with infinite replayability, and a nice learning curve.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
29 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The coop mode is a great addition and makes the game even more enjoyable with a friend.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The graphics are pretty great, the sound feels good, and decisions feel like they matter.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The automated combat works extremely well because you are constantly trying to predict what your opponent will do next.
