Leave a Review Immortal Taoists
Don’t believe the lies!
I would often see advertisements for the game on different apps and the advertisement videos are not even close to how the gameplay goes. I tried playing it anyways because I like myself some cultivation manhua. It takes so long to make any progress while playing the game, where I could literally go days or even weeks without breaking through to the next level. I believe this to be so in order to encourage people to buy to play in order to make any actual progress. It’s also very rare to get/earn any spirit jade as well, where they encourage you to buy some in order to get certain things from the shop.
Speaking of the shop, the higher grade pills that you need in order to break through are made more and more scarce. They charge spirit jade to get them, even though you could go close to a week without even obtaining one jade. They also have it to where the success rate of breaking through without pills decreases every time you break through to a new realm.
The advertisement is largely false advertisement and there’s literally no way to report it for being so. They use pictures and whatnot from popular webcomic like Solo Leveling, which have nothing to do with the game at all. It’s very frustrating. I also highly doubt that there’s so little one star reviews for this game either.Show lessManga Rock's Trash

Dear taoist, Thanks for contacting us! Every realm breakthrough can gain rewards! Besides, we also hold many events in our Facebook @com.immortaltaoist to get kinds of welfare.Thanks again for your support!Devs really listen
To start with, the game itself was always fun to play, but when I started, there were fundamental app issues. The part that skips tribulation animation broke the game, the in app music couldn’t be turned off even when the music box was unchecked, etc. In less than a month of leaving a review critiquing these points, they were all fixed. This made me feel like the devs really listen to the community and improves/adjusts as needed. I think that is a key factor in whether a game should be played or not; and I now know that this app is worth my time. Go ahead and give it a chance 😁Show lessL_-SKY_-l

The game is great and I’ve been playing for awhile leveling up while watching ads to get spirit jades since I can’t get it through any other means other than paying for it. But after awhile the ads started to glitch once in awhile, the ads wouldn’t play sometimes and at times even if it did it wouldn’t give me the reward!! Now it won’t even give me awards at all(I’ve played at least 10 ads today and even redownloaded the game but I haven’t gotten a single item that was supposed to be given to me for playing the ads) !! The event is also lagging for me, It shows that I already got some of the rewards for finishing a task but would not let me collect the reward!! Rn it’s stuck and says collected even tho I haven’t even the task today yet but because of this even if I complete it, it won’t give me the items.Show lessLumina (>~<)

Then we could help you check it further. We will suggest developers to add more ways to get it. Thanks for supporting Immortal Taoists: the authentic Wuxia Cultivation idle Game!Its good but...
This game has been really fun but the problem comes down to the ads. I don’t mind the ads in fact I want to ads to work because its one way for you to earn the resources you need in this game. However, the ads just stopped working, it wont play or it will play and you won’t get the reward. This slows down the resources I need to level up in this game so currently I’m plateauing in the game and it’s not fun anymore. I would love for this glitch to be fixed because it’s very annoying.Show lesswhorechatta
This game has some weird censors in chat.
“Nice” is censored. So is “basics”. Many other common innocent words are censored but those are a couple headscratchers.
You can barely chat without getting **ed out.
Not really conducive to building a multiplayer hangout space when you’re wasting half your time evading hyperaggressive censors.
Other than the censorship thing the game is a fine idle game. If you’re really into taoism and like Journey To The West visual vibes you’ll like this game. It sure beats games like Capitalist since here you can at least explore some maps and test your skills against monsters while hoarding treasure. And you can get most things you need without premium currency.Show lessTmaro23325
Great for free to play and pay to win
Free to play players can keep up with players who have spent well over a thousand if they really enjoy the game and play it a bunch there’s so many different avenues to gain items, pills and materials that if you actually search the game is competitive for all types of players and people that can’t find pills to level up just didn’t look in the sect exchangeShow lessJejdjbebjejedh
Okay, if you like watching ads.
This is basically a tap game. It very poorly links a bunch of other game types together, but doesn't really have any sort of game function. You wait to upgrade aspects of your character that allow you to wait longer to upgrade your character. It costs $2 (or 12 ads) to unlock the ability to look at your stats.
There are dungeons that you can “explore,” consisting of a single square room with a few monsters and resources to engage with. Monsters, you can choose to attack or retreat from. Resources get picked up. You have no control over combat, though it does awkwardly play out if you want to watch a bunch of misses and as many as a half dozen hits before you or your enemy are defeated.
All of this would be okay if there were at least some lore to read. But no, that would cut into the time needed to watch ads.
There are maybe fifty different ways that this game could have been awesome and a thousand ways that it could at least be not terrible. Instead, we got a tap game with ads and just enough Taoist flavor to feel culturally insensitive. Crappy ‘80s action parodies are more informative and respectful of their source material.
I wanted to like this game. There just isn't enough game to like.Show lessWizeManBOB

Thank you for your support of Immortal Taoists-- the authentic Chinese Cultivation idle Game!Poorly Designed Gameplay and Purchases
1) Progression not intuitive at all. Unless you do research on Reddit/discord it is impossible to progress. Even with the guides, there is a lot unexplained. The wording in the game itself is cryptic and ambiguous at times.
2) Broken Ads. This game has an excessive amount of ads, which is bearable due to the rewards. But the issue is how often you waste 30 seconds watching an ad, that bugs out and does nothing.
3) The auto-function from CASH PAID purchases are terrible. Most auto style games, have ways to pay for convenience. It may seem unfair. But it keeps the game alive. But this game even botches that up... almost every auto function you pay for is significantly worse then doing it manually. It actually punishes you for using it... when you paid for it.
TLDR: games progression unintuitive, excessive ads that break, paid convenience purchases are subpar.Show lesskayayaayayayasa
An Okay Game
Pros:
+ Semi-Idle Game, sort of as advertised. It’s a bit more complex then your typical idle game but that’s fine.
+ Awesome character creation and outfits
+ Good Soundtrack
+ Graphically Appealing HD Textures
Cons:
- Plot Ruining Localization (for English)
- Unintuitive Menus, GUI, and Inventory system
- Items are stored in inventory system when they could be automatically redeemed
- Quests and mechanics aren’t explained very well if at all as you play/unlock more of the game
- Played for three hours, couldn’t find an explanation of the stats in the game anywhere. Strength and Dexterity make sense, but Life Essence? Is that to represent a combat resource like mana? Is it my health?
- Cluttered Menus and bright flashy everything makes it hard to distinguish what I need to do or where to go after the tutorial because half the screen is moving or flashing, or has a notification symbol so it can be very overwhelming to return to. When it’s no longer jumping at you, there are so many layers of menus I kept forgetting where things were, or couldn’t find them at all.Show lessMasterDJ101
Decent review up to soul wandering realm
1. This is the best idle game I’ve found so far, the diversity of stuff to do during the idle part is almost to much.
2. The exploring aspect is amazing it is just simple enough that it draws you in, and the treasure map stuff helps spice up the repetitive nature of the maps to get you focused on that point of the map.
3. The only bit I got to say is a lot of easy to watch ads for extra materials and stuff it’s so easy to get drawn in, to just get the extra stuff, so this was fantastically designed.
4. But the realm achievement list I found it after a bit of rigorous exploration of the app
So a little guidance in the beginning and a clickable section to help with basics on the front bar would be a great addition, I am still looking at the app so I might have missed something but I doubt it.
Anyway love the app, love the cultivation aspect, but the ads I’ve seen for the app since downloading, just seem like videos are made and edited and just don’t show the app as much.Show lessdjkronos98
