  1. [R2] T3 Arena 5/5 · US They just gotta come back, trust: (For the short version, The game is peak, needs more people. try it out, so we can get our devs back. haveagooddayandthankyou🙏) T3 was one of my favorite games on mobile. Having a whole cast of characters that feel original and creative, gave it a much more "hidden gem" sensation for me. That is until the devs dropped the ball. For reasons i've yet to ask Goo

  10. [R15] T3 Arena 3/5 · US Devs abandoned it: This game was great but for some reason the Devs completely abandoned it as it hasn’t been updated in over a year. Player base fell off drastically.
  11. [R1] T3 Arena 1/5 · US Cheat characters ninja girl pay to win: They have competitive mode but it’s a ninja character that’s way overpowered can shoot through walls can shoot through shields no other charcter can do this there’s no way to dodge there’s no way do run like if this character aims at you… through a wall it’s a guaranteed hit through your shield because your a slow character guaranteed hit still !!

  12. [R28] T3 Arena 1/5 · US SCAMMER APP STEALS MONEY: Didn’t give me items from the bundle or subscription. DONT SUPPORT THIS APP!!!!!
  13. [R34] T3 Arena 1/5 · US Neglected game: A fun game back in its heyday but the devs left it alone to rot. I even spent money on this game long ago. Hope they save the game.
  14. [R39] T3 Arena 3/5 · US Needs improvement: If you want to win play at night and don’t play during the day. all the not good players play during the day and the algorithm matches you with all of them but if you love playing ranked then play at NIGHT oh yeah they also have players you can buy that are just cheats straight cheat codes
  15. [R12] T3 Arena 3/5 · US Update: This game hasn’t changed since I’ve been playing
  16. [R29] T3 Arena 5/5 · US 10/10 game: this game is so great it really is, but the only problem is the lack of any updates or new characters. it’s been the same now for a year and there’s pretty much nothing new in the game right now. you guys made the best mobile hero shooter game ever and your not capitalizing on it by adding new skins to it and new characters, this game is amazing why did you give up on it?
  17. [R30] T3 Arena 3/5 · US T3: Very good but there has been no update in forever. No new maps, no new characters no new anything!
  18. [R42] T3 Arena 3/5 · US Game is dead: They won’t do good updates. We stopped getting new characters and skins. Game was good, they just don’t care anymore
  19. [R73] Standoff 2 2/5 · US To be honest, the game is dying with each update. The anti-cheat doesn't work at all. · translated
  20. [R77] Standoff 2 4/5 · US Good game. If only the cheaters were gone, it would be great. · translated
  21. [R82] Standoff 2 1/5 · US Beholder games and cheats in the game: Beholder games are practically impossible to complete. For example, in 'Procur,' you don't have enough acceleration in certain places, which really affects your mental state. Or the labyrinth: how is it possible to clear 3 floors in 5 minutes when one floor takes at least 1:30-2:00 minutes for a professional, and for a beginner it's simply impossible? I also want to note that with each update, it gets worse. · translated
  22. [R115] Standoff 2 1/5 · US Trash game: This game is complete nonsense, it's already annoying me. No hit registration, I lose a lot but only gain half back, too many cheaters, the anti-cheat is garbage, the game is trash. · translated
  23. [R16] T3 Arena 2/5 · US Wouldn't let me play: Some glitch wouldn't let me get into the game because it kept failing to make a private sever.
  24. [R63] Standoff 2 3/5 · US Game hit registration: The game is good, of course, but the hit registration isn't great. When you shoot an enemy right next to you, you deal 0 damage while they deal 200. When an enemy plants a bomb, you manage to kill them, but the bomb continues to defuse for a few seconds and the other team wins. This isn't the first time I've encountered this, so minus 2 stars. · translated
  25. [R69] Standoff 2 3/5 · US Hit registration: Please fix the hit registration, it's impossible to play. The hit registration is very bad, fix it AXLEBOT. · translated
  26. [R72] Standoff 2 3/5 · US Ping from GOD: The game is sh*t, ping jumps from 480 to 999 even though my internet is good. I'm teleporting across the entire map. AXLE, what the f*ck is going on with the game? · translated
  27. [R78] Standoff 2 3/5 · US Teleporting: Hello, Standoff 2 developers. I want to say that I've been teleporting many times, not just once. Can you do something about this? · translated
