Gankster is a really good app for finding new friends and people to play with. The only downside is that the ACE membership is required for a lot of features, which can limit the experience for free users. I’d also recommend improving the age system. Some users’ profiles can make them appear older than they actually are, so the displayed age isn’t always accurate. One feature I’d really like to see is a small review system. The current tags like “Fun,” “Chill,” and “Positive” are nice, but it would be even better if players who have actually played with you could leave a short review about their experience. That way, other players can get a better idea of someone’s personality, intentions, and what they’re like to play with before matching with them. Overall, Gankster is a great concept, and a review system would make finding trustworthy and compatible players even better.
The idea is good but the execution is not. First of all, the fact that it’s not free ruins it immediately. Finding someone to play with shouldn’t cost you any money, and they try and solve this with ways to earn “spark” that give you laughably low amounts of it compared to the cost to reveal someone who liked your profile. Secondly, the core way to earn these “sparks” is to play with a duo you found there, which you cannot do if the first duo that you used your free spark on doesn’t answer. Basically, you get one attempt at getting a duo then you have to pay. The worst part is that they are paying popular Valorant discord servers who usually had chats for this to take chats out and use this system exclusively, completely ruining an easy way to find a duo.
Honestly they nailed the goal, it’s easy to find duos and so far everyone I’ve talked to has been very kind. It’s just that the concept is SO gay and similar to tinder i couldn’t give it 5 stars
