## Review summary

Most reviews praise the core, depth-rich chess-style auto-battler and the nostalgic appeal for fans of similar games. However, recurring issues dominate: poor connection quality and lag, long or empty matchmaking, and concerns about cheating, bots, and pay-to-win mechanics. Additional frustration comes from stability problems after updates, login/download glitches, and disruptive balance changes like nerfs or removing pieces from stores. Players also request tournaments and better server reliability.

- Perceived cheating, bots, and pay-to-win dynamics leading to unfair games
- Stability problems after updates: crashes, black screen, login or download issues
