Gameplay
In this game, robots and biological beings have collided and in a bid for survival, your job is to take down the enemy’s bases while protecting your own. You can decide which team you want to be in – I picked metal just because I thought it was cooler.
Throughout the short but sweet tutorial, you’re shown how to defend your base while also protecting yourself. Shooting will mostly occur naturally, however, it’s important to keep track of your special attacks as they are what will help you win.
Graphics
Although I’m not usually the biggest fan of games that are played from a bird’s eye view, the graphics were incredibly detailed which helped me look past this. I also thought the heroes were pretty badass as well, with quite a few to choose from.
Music & Sounds
The audio while in a match was incredibly loud and fast, adding to the intense gameplay of taking down your enemies. I’d say the music adds a whole lot to the gameplay as I feel like it helps the player feel like they’re really defending their own kind.
Controls
Before you’re even in the game, you’re asked if you’d prefer to play with one hand (portrait) or two hands (landscape). Initially, I picked portrait mode and I’m glad I did because it made the game a lot less overwhelming. When it comes to mobile games, I personally prefer them to be portrait so it’s nice to have the option.

You can also earn rare coins through Offerwall. For example, completing surveys in order to earn in-game currency. In my opinion, this is a waste of time.
