Leave a Review Bloody Bastards
Great until the new update
Was a competitive player who used two handed weapons. Although the shield and one handed weapon felt unbalanced and it is easier to win that way, I still preferred the challenge of the two handed weapon. Now the one handed weapon with shield combo has an even bigger advantage because instead of nerfing that, you have made it impossible to have fun using the already bad two handed weapons. Now, when playing online, all people do is try and put a shield over you and cut your limbs and it has worked every single time. Two handed weapons barely do any damage when up close and now that you swing once and lose all of it they are now useless, and players who take the easy way out can now win even more. Out of all things to fix, why try to fix the two handed weapon?
Edit: Five star game with new stamina fixShow lessisssaloe
Great game... mostly
Overall pretty fun (besides being pretty grindy with 1000 levels for each of the 3 regions)
The 2 handed weapon controls need about 99% improvement to actually be useable. The multiplayer is also about useless. Before the update it was bad, now it's worse. Out of about 20 attempts to get a match all but 2 failed to find a match and of the 2 matches I was able to get, one left the match immediately and the other match was either glitched (with the opposing character showing up all over the screen making them impossible to hit) or the other player found a way to cheat. Keep working on the multi player so it can actually be played.Show lesschingchongbingbung
A must play for everyone
Simply an amazing game. Combat is well done, physics well calculated, doesn’t feel buggy to me, art and design are amazing, progression is simply fantastic as there is SO MUCH OF IT, and you feel like you’re constantly progressing, and the atmosphere is beautiful. I will say my first little while i felt as though the physics was broken but as i got better i noticed it was just a git gud moment. The one and only complaint, not near enough to give it anything less than 5 stars mind you, is that the balancing could use some work. Now in single player it seems most of the weapons are viable and unique enough that if you figure out their playstyle you can try many play styles. However flails and maces are simply the best. By a LOT. Now i know, historical accuracy wise, these will be better against heavy plate than say something like a knife but for the sake of fun i think it would be nice to tone done the strength these weapons have against armor a little bit. Oh almost forgot, the fact this game has zero micro transactions, other than zero ads but that’s a given as these games must make money somehow, just goes to show the real confidence these people had that they made a great game. Keep it up. Great mobile game, maybe a massive update a pc port would be nice, and keep up the good work. 10/10Show lessepicgamerdude69

THIS GUY GETS IT! Haha! Thank you very much for the kind words and shining review, my good fellow! I fully agree that balancing could've used some work back when you originally wrote your review, hence I've tweaked all the flails to have their damage calculated based on the speed of the shaft rather than the pendulum (which was making them way to OP, my bad) and also I've made the bladed and spiked weapons do almost as much damage to plate as the blunt ones. There is still a bit of difference, but it's not half the damage anymore. I think it's only fair, since it's easier to hit a huge blade rather than the head of a mace. Time will tell. I'm very curious to know how you feel about the new balancing, so please let me know. Again, thank you so much fo the review and have a great one!Great Game/ Lots Of Potential For The Future
Super fun game lots of fun. There is definitely room for improvement. I would love to see more blood, more easier dismemberment, and more gruesome bloody combat. I’d love to see them make a gladiator game. They have the basics down very well just a few tweaks to the game it could be the next big thing. I’m actually very excited to see what they can produce in future updates and games. I highly recommend you play the game and you will see with small tweaks to it it could be very addicting. I would also like to see crowd reactions, like you have a nice cut or slash and the crowd reacts to it. Also when you stab your opponent they react more to it like scream you see blood pour out of where you stabbed. I’d give the current game a 9/10. I love the design of the game.Show lessgetubderg
Second review- customizability and accuracy
I wrote and earlier review about the overall, but I really wanted to talk more about the game. The historical accuracy is not to the T, but it’s ridiculously accurate in different ways from the options of equipment. There different layers of armor that affect how much defense you have and your stamina.
The best thing is the armor is capped at a certain point allowing you more freedom to customize your Gladiator or Rogue or Knight etc.
My only wish is that the Tsardom’s two-handed stick gets a better hitbox so I can bonk these filthy casuals in rankedShow less764675
good game, could be improved tho
overall i really like this game because the controls are pretty simple and unconfusing, and it isn’t horribly repetitive. there’s a lot of different gear, and a lot of different levels, and as long as you can figure out 2 joysticks it isn’t too difficult to deploy some cool strategies. its also fabulously gorey.
there are 2 main things that definitely need work however, and those are the bugs and the uniqueness of equipment. there are some bugs in the game that make it annoying sometimes, but it’s just a single guy creating this game so i understand why. The equipment, especially armor, is the main problem i think, because after a certain point the armor stops actually providing unique benefits. i think if some of the weaker armors that are acquired through the game should have some kind of extra ability rather than just being a different, worse version of some other armor i’ve already unlocked.
in conclusion the game is easy to understand and i have a lot of fun playing it, but it’s a little buggy and the novelty wears off after awhile when the new items stop being particularly beneficial.Show lessWeiderkin

Thank you very much for the review, champ! I'm very glad you like it! On the issue of the bugs - I agree. Given your review is originally from June of 2022, I highly recommend updating to 3.2.9, which just came out, since I've addressed A LOT of annoying bugs. Let me know what you think of the new udpate, if you wish. Have a great one, TibiBuggy and dysfunctional
PVP : So most of the times when grappling with my opponent I would suddenly and instantly die without any reason or change regardless of how much health or damage I have or have dealt, yet my opponents can always just slam me into the corner for minutes at a time and I have never seen anyone else die that way. Most of my attacks would get stuck on either a weapon, armor, or geometry leaving no option other than to try and flail around like a madman or hope your opponent will not advance on a backup. 2 handed weapons are virtually unwieldy and not useable until you get the very last ones which are naturally more powerful, and even then they are finicky at best, the previous two issues being even more prevalent. Matchmaking in EU while American is a wild shot because about half of my matches would suddenly without a prior ping notification in the bottom left, disconnect for latency. While this is the best mobile game I’ve ever played, it still definitely needs work.
PVM : Remove the grappling issue, add a lot of repetition, and annoying progression systems that take hours to unlock anything meaningful, and you have one mind numbingly boring “campaign” that technically has 3000 levels.
Pros? Cheap micro transaction for no ads helped me not waste a lot of time to figure out how crap the game is
Cons? Overrun with cheaters and buggyShow lessAudeJuan
Can’t get enough.
I’ve been playing this game for only 2 days, and I’ve got to say, it’s one of the most immersive and fun games in this entire App Store. From the cosmetics and armor, to the character customization, in every aspect it’s a fun and addictive game. I only found one bug to where every time there’s a ad, it would play and then the audio for the game would disappear. So I would have to close out the game for it work again. Either than that, I’m having a really good weekend because of this very game. I would love to see what other updates will come to this; I hope there’s more updates to come and certainly more scenarios to fight in. I love the dev team! Keep it up!Show lessCultsWillCutThroats
This game is really good but I have an issue.
This game is really fun but I have an issue, I’ve Down this game on three different devices my iPhone 7 my iPhone 13 and also my iPod touch and it seems no matter what device I play it on I have the same issue…. I play a out 6 levels and in that span of those battles I get an ad pop up well after the ad is done I got back to playing my game and there’s no more audio I have to exit the game close out the app start over where I left off and then when I get the next ad I lose audio. I'm still gonna keep playing the game I just hope the issue get fixed soon lolShow lessJimmy rayne
Great game but one issue
I absolutely love this game so much. I have laughed so hard at the animations and the gameplay everything about this game is amazing but there is a little problem. Most ads that play after a few matches cause my game to have no sound which isn’t a huge issue but it does bother me. I have to close out of the app and reopen it just to get an ad after another few matches and have to repeat the process. I know sound isn’t a huge deal but I like knowing if I’m hitting their armor or not and to just hear is nice. It always happens with the ads that tell me to skip them after a few seconds but with ads with just an x that pops up in the corner does not cause sound to go away. Anyways if you could try and fix this issue I would greatly appreciate it I love your game very much.Show lessJohn Crawdaddy
