| 2025-02-02 |  | | Screenshots DO NOT match gameplay. Also, later levels are unplayable, because the developers included a random instant-lose mechanic (constant lightning strikes), no matter how good you are at playing. There is no way to stop it or mitigate against it. That's bad design. In Discord, they said this was by design. I've never seen a decent strategy game adopt pure random mechanics and then improve, so it's probably time to move on. |
| 2025-02-01 |  | | Crashes every ~3 levels, losing progress. Unique monsters and equipment--but not shy about ~10 paywalls asking you to spend hundreds of dollars while refusing to pay a human artist. You can never roll Legendary or Divine equipment. $396 USD to roll a set--if you're LUCKY. $20 to have the last card slot unlocked--til it expires without notice. Cool research disappeared and is replaced with obscenely expensive 500 level basic stat research. There are many other things; I'm out of space. |
| 2025-02-01 |  | | A completely 1 dimensional mobile game that is everything you would expect a cookie-cutter mobile game to be. Absolutely no sense of real difficulty or danger of losing. And no exaggerating- takes 2 hours to get through all the ads you have to watch to collect your daily rewards. I rarely ever got to actually play the game but when i did i was super bored and just wanted the battle to be over. Super repititious combat that offers no real challenges. Oh, and have fun learning costly hard lessons. |
| 2025-01-30 |  | | Really good. Love the combat. I also like that some of the steep difficulty jumps usually turn out to just be problems that could be overcome with an adjustment of strategy. I would rate it 5 stars if you were able to undo actions though. Sometimes when building I accidentally select the wrong upgrade option and then I'm just stuck like that. Even being able to sell would be fine. |
| 2025-01-28 |  | | The latest update with World 3 is broken! This adds an annoying mechanic that creates random lightning bolts during the fighting. It's not horrible at first and I welcome something different as the maps were getting stale. But the real problem is that these lightning bolts can destroy your buildings and castle! While successfully defending, you'll just randomly fail the level because a rogue lightning killed your castle. This is utter stupidity and should never have made it past quality control. |
| 2025-01-24 |  | | Are you kidding me?! used a ticket that takes 14 hours to regen to start a sequence of waves. real life happens and had to put phone down. come back and it reset that stage. no tickets, 13 hour countdown. too bad, it seems like a good game. edit: Yea, happened again. there is no option to pick up where you left off and they won't refund a 16 hour long cooldown ticket. this is a timed event. guess they are making it on purpose so that unless you spend money, you will never get suri wukong gear |
| 2025-01-13 |  | | Great game, extremely repetitive though. Second world is way to easy, need more content. The adventure doesn't work right. Cleared all 10 waves and it loaded me up for another wave 10 with no enemies. Waited, and nothing happened. Used all tickets and got all losses. I beat the world's, now I have nothing to do. |
| 2025-01-02 |  | | Cool concept, just greedily done. Why would you put a gold farm on the outside of the protected area? It gets destroyed by lesser enemies immediately, making it a money trap. By the time enough gold is produced for a level, the level is over. Awarded gold vs. upgrades cost in game are ridiculous.will be uninstalling seeing as how no progress is being made at all unless I buy something, no thanks, still no guarantee there either. |
| 2025-01-01 |  | | I bought x3 speed pack as the game looks amazing, but I never actually got the pack. I literally bought a smaller pack about a minute before that and everything went fine. Devs definitely need to look at that ASAP. I rarely spend on mobile games and not getting what I paid for annoyed me enough to put me off playing. There's a thing to leave a bug report etc but I can't be bothered to wait for a reply, so I've just requested a refund for everything via Google. I give up already. |
| 2025-01-01 |  | | It would get more stars if it weren't so buggy and predatory with the in game purchase prices. Edit: This wasn't meant to be a kind review, it was meant to warn anybody away from wasting their time or money. You charge an ungodly price for in app purchases when the game is incomplete and hardly playable. The game is full of bugs and a paywall at world 2. I don't mind making a purchase to support, but you would have to spend hundreds on an incomplete and glitchy game to progress any further. |
