  1. [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 !!

  14.

  15. [R23] T3 Arena 5/5 · US Awesome game: Love the game should make it supportable for tvOS with game controllers
  16. [R26] T3 Arena 4/5 · US Good game but ai teammates: It’s a nice game fun abilities multiple hero’s and powers simple and copetive but not only matchmaking takes about 5-10 mins if playing multiplayer but I think rarely any people play since you usually play with bots
  17. [R36] T3 Arena 3/5 · US Fun game: Reminds me of overwatch. Nice graphics, pretty fluid gameplay, plenty of cool looking characters. There is one major factor that kills the game for me though. There is no way to invert aim. I’ve played inverted for almost 30 years now since I first started gaming, and there is no way for me to change that. Unfortunately, that makes the game unplayable for me. If you guys add an option to
  18. [R63] Mortal Kombat 3/5 · US Controller support: Please add
  19. [R62] Mortal Kombat 5/5 · US Pretty good: Yeah i been playing it for a while characters are not worth buying because they would make u bankrupt it requires a lot of grinding to earn the character without spending money only thing id change is the store system because in order to buy a character you would need to spend hundred on a mystery box when you can just sell the character for 20 and you’d have a lot more people buying
  20. [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.
  21. [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?
  22. [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!
  23. [R54] T3 Arena 3/5 · GB UPDATE YOUR GAME!!: This game is soo fun peaking back in 2022 but it wasn’t had a proper update in a year or two. Don’t give up on this game so many love it. There’s no other mobile shooter like T3 Arena don’t abandon on your only advantage on the market. 😔
  24. [R76] Mortal Kombat 1/5 · US So bad: This game is sooo bad, all you have to do is to click on ur screen like a dumb monkey, there is no even any combos or stuff. This game has nothing in common with console mortal combat games.
  25. [R78] Mortal Kombat 3/5 · US BEST OF THE BEST (but)…: I’ve being playing this game and I realized that there are no extra buttons, only power thing that you fill in in Kombat. And one of biggest minuses is: the game is really simple, I mean like it doesn’t have anything based on Mortal Kombat. How did I realize that? I bought MK11 and I saw a huge storyline plus you can build you Kombat, not like this junk. Sometimes I even t
  26. [R93] Mortal Kombat 3/5 · US Fun game: This game is fun but I have to say is you can’t do fatalities and not really like other MORTLE kombat games I don’t think it should be a Mobil game
  27. [R96] Mortal Kombat 3/5 · US Mortal Kombat Mobile is too easy: I think mk mobile was a good idea in terms of more accessible merchandising and expanding the customer base. However, the gameplay is much easier and gets dull quickly. There are only a handful of attacks you can use and once you max out your characters and accounts there really is no point in playing this game. I think if they were able to make the mobile version
  28. [R74] Mortal Kombat 5/5 · US Controller support: Need it to work with my backbone controller
  29. [R82] Mortal Kombat 1/5 · US No Backbone: Support. Really?
