Reception

Reviews for Mecho Wars have been generally positive. It received a score of 4 out of 5 from appvee.com.[7] Gamerlimit.com gave Mecho Wars a 8.5 out of 10 [8] Appversity said "where UniWar brought a bland, but solid entry to the TBS genre, Mecho Wars counters with a flashy and vibrant style. With this style and the innovative time twist, I can safely say that upon the release of online multiplayer, Mecho Wars will be a must-have".[9] Slide To Play gave the game a 4 out of 4.[10] Meanwhile, PSPminis.com gave it a 9/10 for the PlayStation Minis version saying "Mecho Wars is very polished and full of content."[11]
