At first I looked at this game and thought, "oh, it's just a rip off of War Robots". Yes, it is extraordinary similar, and yes, they copied a lot of mechanics, but that's a good thing. War Robots ruined itself with pay2play a long time ago, and Mech Arena is great reminder of how it used to be. Of course there are things you can buy to progress faster, but everything is unlocked as you level up. If you were a fan of the way War Robots used to be, then Mech Arena is what you've been waiting for.
