Plarium Reviews 431

Money hog with lots of app issues

It's a game based on scams and deception of newcomers, new players, who think they're playing against humans, but instead they're playing against an AI that manages bots, and manages wins and losses. It's a game that requires a HUGE AMOUNT OF MONTHLY MONEY. NERFING (DEPOSITING) WEAPONS that cost a lot of money to upgrade makes them unplayable after a few months, and the same goes for the MECHs. REPETITIVE GAMEPLAY, REPETITIVE WEAPONS, TOO MANY POINT-AND-FORGET WEAPONS, NO SKILL REQUIRED. Spend money and you'll have self-killing weapons and indestructible mechs. Matches with opponents that aren't balanced between their power levels.... A game that could offer fun, but ONLY FRUSTRATION AND CONTINUOUS MONEY. A game that deserves a lawsuit. A game that exploits the naivety and trust of young players... will waste a lot of money for nothing.

Game: Raid Shadow Legends.
Issue: For a free game, you end up spending thousands of dollars, yes, thousands. All the microtransactions add up really fast. They advertise x10/x15/x25 chance to summon a specific champion, when your chances are still less than 1%. You don't get enough energy to actually do anything, so you spend real money to play the game. Everything is designed for you to play the game daily, it is also designed for you to spend a little bit of money each day, which then progressively gets more expensive each time (i.e., $2.99 then $5.99 then $15.99 then $24.99), they build you up to get used to small increases in price so that you'll continue to pay.

The events are all rigged to make you spend money. The summon events have lower summoning chances to make you buy more shards. When gear enhancement events start, the chances to fully upgrade gear are drastically reduced, to get you to spend more money. Fusion events...get outta here, so far I've spent close to $400 and I'm not even half way there.

Don't be dumb like me, spend your money elsewhere. Find a different game to play. You can try to be Free to Play, but it won't last long, unless you truly do not like the game and stop playing. All the content creators on youtube spend THOUSANDS to get where they are at, they'll showcase their Free to Play accounts, but it's easy to showcase a secondary account when you have another account with everything on it.

I've played throne for over 4years, it was once a fun game, but now it's to where you can't progress your character unless you spend.. they have tournaments every week, and what the big players do, is set up a smaller alt account, they leave the order, but once the match up has been set with the smaller/medium sized players, they return to the smaller player and destroy you, while their small account gets an easy win.. plarium allows players to cheat in every aspect of the game.. like i said, i've played for some time, but am done wasting my time in a no win, pay to play game... dont waste your time

I wish I could sue the ceo of plarium , the developers, the content creators and anyone associated with this mental terrorist game from ISRAEL TO UKRAINE!. Even when I delete this game and I come back, it creates this hatred in my heart that no human should have for a game , a toxic gaming community and an even worse Plarium/ Raid shadow legend media team. They are evil and people hate them but they won't adress the truth!. I'm willing to join any lawsuit and I hope shraga mor the coward reads this and contacts me.

To start I want to say that this game has so much potential to be a 5 star game..

I've invested a significant amount of time and resources into Mech Arena on Plarium Play, and my experience with this game has been a rollercoaster of emotions. I’ve been playing for nearly three years, with impressive stats that most would consider noteworthy. Despite my dedication, my relationship with the game is a love/hate one, I love the gameplay, strategic battles, and the excitement it offers. I also appreciate that it’s a great concept of a game that doesn’t involve gore or the death of characters, making it accessible and suitable for a wide audience. However, it’s become increasingly frustrating over time, especially after certain updates.

Recently, the introduction of mods has drastically disrupted the game's balance. It seems that the more money players invest, the less skill truly matters in securing victory. This shift has led to more mismatched and unfair matches, with many players voicing their dissatisfaction. The disparity caused by mods has made gameplay less about skill and more about who has invested the most, which is disappointing.

What’s more, over time, I’ve been experiencing growing anger and frustration as the balance issues persist and worsen. It's disheartening to see the game drift away from its original fun and skill-based core.

There are also other issues I haven’t mentioned here, but addressing the problems I’ve outlined would be a great step toward making meaningful improvements.

With all this in mind, I find myself playing less than I did in the past. I believe I am not alone in these concerns, many long-term players likely share similar frustrations and are hoping for meaningful positive changes that could reignite their interest and enjoyment in the game.

Would I recommend this game to others? Mostly, yes, but not wholeheartedly. I believe the developers need to implement some critical changes to better support and cater more to long-term, loyal players. Improvements such as making this more of what is a true definition on what a real tournament play is, introducing more new maps, and reducing the confusion caused by constantly adding new arsenals and mechs would help restore balance and fairness.

This is one of the main issues affecting what could be an even greater game. If addressed, these concerns could help bring back the competitive spirit and fairness that made Mech Arena great in the first place.

I’ve spent a lot of time with this game, and I can confidently say: don’t start playing RAID unless you're prepared to pay – a lot – just to keep up, let alone make real progress.

This is not just a “pay-to-win” game — it’s “pay-to-compete” and sometimes even “pay-to-survive.” You’re constantly bombarded with offers, and the in-game economy is heavily tilted in favor of spending real money. Free-to-play players stand no real chance of enjoying the full experience or even staying relevant over time.

But the worst part? The summoning system is deeply flawed. Getting the same champions over and over again within short timeframes is more than just “bad luck.” And yet, every time players raise concerns, the official response is the same: “It’s RNG.” No transparency, no data, no explanation. Just a generic excuse that conveniently covers any suspicious outcome.

There are also constant bugs, and the game's support team gives vague, copy-paste answers that never address the real issues. They claim to forward feedback to the developers, but years later, the same problems remain — especially around fairness and champion pulls.

In short:

It’s bug-ridden.

It’s aggressively monetized.

It’s evasive in addressing community concerns.

And it punishes anyone who isn’t swiping a card regularly.

This game may look polished on the surface, but underneath it’s a carefully engineered trap designed to extract as much money as possible while giving back as little value as they can get away with.

The game is pretty fun actually, and verry dangrous.. its pretty adictive for the dopamine rush and if you want to keep playing its gonna cost alot of money. honestly if you charge 60 bucks for enough energy to last for a day or two in the meanwhile you can buy a full fladged game to enjoy for hours with no extra charge. i agree with mist comments they dont give a damnn about the actual game or the ppl that play there game its only about money. if you look at the way there events and competitons are build.. its a piramide scheme and its legal. dont start if you want to keep you finances in check.

company based in israel. surprisingly, all they care about is money. games are rigged. in mech arena you mostly play against overpower bots. devs include OP bots to force you to buy premium content. plarium is a leader in power creeping. each time they release new content, the old one becomes useless. support is abysmal. do not play any games from that studio. absolute waste of time

They suck, the support sucks. Wouldn't even send me a list of transactions I made and which items were in the bundles. That's all i asked for and they couldn't even bother doing that. Useless.

Fun to play, and I had a giant amount of progress until I logged on one time and something went wrong because my whole entire RAID game progress had reset so I had to start from scratch again... Very sad, fun otherwise.

Never download Plarium Games: Kash Patel needs to go after this company : Plarium; Shut DOWN those account RIGGERS and false advertiser money laundering Digital gaming platform Mech Arena, is very RIGGED in all form's!

Money pit money garb total pay to win pay to play pay for anything in Mech Arena leave negatives' as well on their yt channel to get your point across!!

Greedy and very bad customer service.

Greediest, most dishonest gaming platform ever. Constant manipulation of gaming algorithms to increase or decrease difficulty at their whim with the aim to frustrate kids and get them to constantly “upgrade” dozens upon dozens of monetized features within the game. They will fleece thousands of dollars out of a gamer and that gamer will realize the upgrades are nearly worthless. Most named players are just bots and Plarium changes the parameters of these bots often.

The scum of gaming. They mainly target and con children and have found a way to microtransaction the heck out of copy paste mobile game ideas

Mech arena, all game have it good and bad, but you guy have cross the line. I have never played a game where your hard earned resources just disappear. The way it was taken away is extremely sneaky. You guy just take a random chunk of player hard earn resource so unless someone really pay attention they would not notice that it is missing. Maybe you guys can make an excuse that this is some kind of bug but not addressing it after being contacted with the issue prove that you either don’t care or did this on purpose.

I’m so mad that I have spend money on your game.

Yes....PLARIUM IS THE WORST AMONG ONLINE GAMING COMPANIES. They market to children, to get them to use up their REAL hard-earned money. Trying to hold them accountable is difficult, because they are a foreign company (based in Herzliya, Israel) and even American consumer protection does little to protect.

Yes, you can potentially hold Plarium accountable by contacting their customer support with evidence of issues, reporting violations through in-game systems, filing complaints with relevant consumer protection agencies depending on your location, and potentially taking legal action in extreme cases where there is a clear breach of consumer rights or applicable laws; however, their Terms of Service often limit your ability to sue them directly for gameplay-related disputes.
Key points to consider:
Internal channels:
Contact support: Reach out to Plarium's customer support team with detailed information about your issue, including screenshots or other evidence where applicable.
In-game reporting: Most Plarium games have in-game reporting systems to flag suspicious activity or violations of game rules.
External channels:
Consumer protection agencies: Depending on your location, you may be able to file a complaint with your local consumer protection agency if you believe Plarium has engaged in unfair practices.
Legal action: In extreme cases where there is a clear violation of consumer laws or significant damages, you could consider legal action against Plarium.
Important factors to remember:
Terms of Service:
Carefully review Plarium's Terms of Service as they often include clauses limiting your ability to sue them for gameplay-related disputes.
Evidence is key:
When raising concerns, always gather substantial evidence like screenshots, timestamps, and detailed descriptions to support your claims.
Jurisdiction matters:
The laws governing your ability to take action against Plarium will depend on your location.

Plarium seems to have turned off their Support so no issues can be reported. The Sparta game appears to be getting inundated with Russian BOT Coalitions and Plarium has done nothing to respond.

I like Plarium's games and don't really have anything to complain about. Most people get mad because they have to be the best of the best. All these games today are the same, same money oriented. For god's sake, be honest, if you really hate Plarium, why do you play their games? Raid Shadow Legends or Mech Arena are just games where you don't really lose anything. Why I only gave three stars is because of the support, they sometimes have no clue.

My Plarium account suddenly got deactivated. When I contacted the support, among details such as my Plarium ID, which is hard to check when you can't login, and my location, they also asked for the creation date of the account. When I said I was unsure about some of those things they replied they wouldn't be able to help me without all those details. I ended up getting all that info, it was sheer luck, since I've had the account for many years. They reactivated the account and when I asked why that happened none of the reasons they gave applied to me. They couldn't even explain me that properly...

Very bad customer service. Run from this company and don't spend any money here. I'll probably keep playing the games purely for entertainment value. Giving a dime to a company like this is inadmissible.
