Great game, but beware of in-game purchase issues!
This game has been great so far, but I cannot recommend buying the in-game packs. As of right now, Blizzard has stated that in-game items from purchases can take 72 hours to receive. Seriously? I guess if you don’t mind waiting days to get your digital goods and having to go back and forth with help tickets on their site, then might be worth it because it’s a pretty good game. I’ve just been waiting over 4 days now and still not received items from my pack and I don’t know if they will even fix this or I should dispute the charge with my credit card co. Just received a generic response from Blizzard and apparently a lot of other people are having similar experiences with in-game purchases. How long should I have to wait though? They could say something at least..
On top of that the performance issues are frustrating and hopefully will be addressed soon. Constantly crashing and missing out on the stage completion rewards is deterring.Show lessHE4TS1NK
Exceptionally mid tier
I had high hopes for this game. I’ve been playing Clash Royale since it came out and I’ve been looking for something to replace it. I thought this game would be it but unfortunately it is not. From the get go it barely piqued my interest and I felt I had to power through the tutorial. Barely any explanation as to how counters work or what the card types are. You pretty much just keep spamming cards until someone spams more. The only level of strategy is the miner you put out to get more gold in order to out spam your opponent. Personal gripe here that I can’t see the whole battlefield at once and have to constantly keep scrolling around, makes hard to really anticipate and play your opponent. Game loop is this; place a troop, scroll up to see enemy, oh they played a card in this lane, scroll down, place my card in that same lane to fight their card, scroll up, oh they placed another card in another lane, scroll down, place a card in that lane, repeat this process for the next 3 minutes until someone wins. The other sad part is that I’m early on and I can already see how the micro transactions will only get worse the longer you play. The game is quick to shove a bunch of progression at you at the beginning to make you feel good but that will wear off and the real progress will rely on how much you’re willing to pay. The game is still on my phone but each time I open it I lose all motivation to play.Show lessSchnater
Lots of bugs!
Lots of bugs 30 seconds between ok button and loading screen. You have to spam the ok button! It varies on time of access. The biggest problem is the game is incredibly grindy. All these companies are getting so predatory with games it’s going to take laws to prevent this garbage style. Game is so fun but you’ll pull your hair out from bugs and over all insane grind if you’re not paying money. Skins and cosmetics with fun game content is way better a system imo! Pay wall are just boring. 3 days in losing interest fast after feeling like it was one of the best mobile game I’ve played since Snap! PvP has potential but you need to grind through impossible lvls and random game modes which are fun but they are so hard cause of exp gaps between all your characters that you end up funneling resources into the wrong things. What ever you do! Do not use the slot machine till after you’ve lvlrd up your mobs. You’re best to use gold to buy the exp tomes that spawn in the shop daily. They will get you through the content so you can farm faster lvl faster and unlock more late game. Exp is the biggest wall in the game not unlocking characters (minis).Show lessSexness
Fun but becomes P2W
It’s a great game at first. I progressed through it and had fun playing. You get to a point where you get stuck in the campaign because of difficulty and have to level up your minis, either through xp or star power. Leveling up through xp requires the grind of quests which is basically redoing levels you’ve already done before. Gets tedious, repetitive, and annoying for such little xp gain. The other way to improve is leveling up star power through the shop. This costs gold. And the game loves gold and does not want to give you any. You get some from the campaign but when you get stuck in the campaign, there’s no other gold resource except paying money to get gold. So basically you get to a point where you either grind endlessly on the same levels over and over or spend money to rank up minis. It was fun until I got to this point, but since I don’t want to do either of these things, I stopped playing. The game really needs to provide some type of regular gold generation.Show lessnate3847282
Unfair AI and bland pvp
Ontop of insta-countering player actions, the AI also starts off maps with scathing advantages. To the point that you need to be atleast 2 levels higher in order to even put up a fight. And even if you are staying in with more base hp than the AI, the match times out to a ‘draw’ (loss) very rapidly. Gold makes such a ridiculous difference in pvp too that getting even 1 or 2 more gold than the other player very quickly spirals into an unrecoverable pubstomp. All my wins correlate. All my losses correlate. At that point it’s no longer playing for objectives but rather who can kill the enemy miners more efficiently.
Also it’s p2w. The reviews saying it isn’t are blatant lies. What it isn’t, is “exclusive content” from payments- although you “can” get everything in those packs f2p at some point… it’s months and months later based on the content available. The game limits your gold gains and the only way to obtain any past first clears of story mode is the arclight events… 400g total per week. Oh wow. So amazing. When i can buy a 15$ pack for a Rare quality leader that would other wise be a 3 month long grindfest MINIMUM… yeah totally not p2w… oh and sylvanas (the 15$ rare pack leader) singlehandedly obliterates everything in pvp btw so totally balanced. Doesnt even NEED support units.Show lessXerynthis
Poorly Balanced & Pay 2 Win
People will tell you the PvP is balanced and fair because mini “levels’ are capped based on your PvP ranking. However there’s a couple of flaws to this line of thinking. Players who pay money will be able to purchase more mini’s from the shop allow them to progress through the campaign quicker unlocking even more mini’s giving them plenty of minis to choose from when building an army.
Secondly, mini’s can be upgraded in rarity (uncommon, rare etc) by reacquiring them. Each additionally rarity level allows you to add some sort of perk or trait to the mini. As mentioned earlier paying players will acquire the most minis and therefore upgrade them quicker resulting in a surprisingly large power gap for a supposedly balanced game.
Also most of the players I encountered usually played as the Alliance or Blackrock faction so those appear to be the early Meta. While the idea of a dominant meta is nothing new to competitive gaming, it’s a bit disappointing the game is so poorly balanced the Meta was “solved” in 2 or 3 daysShow lessGreymane27
Beware of the hard progression lock!
I was really excited to try this game as a fan of warcraft and the clash royal series. This game will stifle your progress hard after a certain level (around 50ish), where it will now depend on you strictly paying to progress your troops. The PVE sections will become level gated and will demand you to be above the required level to complete its levels. Leveling units in this game can be a hassle also with a convoluted and randomized leveling system. Even if you religiously play with a unit, it does not mean it will gain any levels. The gameplay is pretty fun, but the progression system leaves you at a disadvantage constantly. This also bleeds into PVP with you having to upgrade units in order to use their critical skills. These skills can be crucial to some units being average or OP. this could leave you at a huge disadvantage in a majority of your matches. If they can streamline their leveling system this would be a much better game.Show lessEmo reviewer
Best mobile game of 2023!
Best mobile game I have played since Clash. Only thing that would make it better would be if the PvP matchmaking was a little better and if there was unit types over each characters head. I have been stuck at 1,600 PvP ranking for over 20 matches and am very disappointed given the fact that I am missing out on rewards all the way up to rank points of 20,000, not that I expect to get that high but I would like to be able to at least get a quarter of the way there w/o having to max out my toons. The unit types are confusing, unless it’s flying I have no clue if it is a melee or ranged troop until it attacks me and it is too late to place a counter down, causing me to drop troops not knowing if I am properly countering and just wishing for the best, makes for a poor experience for such a great looking game.Show lessSTKallday
Still early
I’ve been looking for a game like this! It’s like Clash Royale, hearthstone, and command&conquer had a baby🥹. Purely talking about the game, it’s excellent. I enjoy playing it… maybe a little too much 🤷🏻♂️. BUT there are some issues I’ve experienced so far. I’m very aware that this game is brand new and just came out, so I’m not holding it against the Devs, but there have been quite a few crashes mid PvP battles, dungeon excursions, and during the campaign; with that said, it's gradually getting better I’ve noticed. The Biggest🔴 issue was that I purchased a loot pack from the in-game store and received nothing but was still charged😅. I’ve contacted support, and they seem to be actively helping, which is good, but after talking with them, I received the Gold💰but not the troop packs that the bundle advertised, which is a bummer and odd. Other than those issues, I love the game so far and will continue playing as I’m a Hearthstone player and enjoy a different way to interact with the characters I’ve been using for years now.Show lessrecognizeReal
Pay 2 win garbage
The game is pay-to-win garbage like usual. You'll enjoy winning automatically no matter what combination of characters you choose for the first 12 hours of gameplay in order to simulate that you're doing well. Afterwards, you will get into the basic PvE gameplay where you will, on some matches, no matter what you do, no matter how you try, you will lose 20 times in a row to simulate difficulty. It's all a facade to get you to try to pay money. In the end, the money doesn't do anything. What you're paying for is trying to get higher levels, which then gives you further access to the PvE map, but you don't ultimately gain anything in this game. The game is a full waste of time.
Said you’ll be stuck in the usual spot of herod like all their games unless you have levels on your characters which is a giant maze of boring… dont waste a cent if you play… ull only contribute to more junk rip offs..Show lessSalvalusOMniG
