Amazing Game!!

I really enjoy this game. The graveborns are some of my favorite characters. I hope more of them are added! This game is an rpg following the tale of Merlin, your playable character whom you can decorate, and his/her adventures in Esperia. There’s lots of heroes to collect and fun season quests to partake in. The art is gorgeous and the stories are fun to follow! This is not some lame click-bait game like some advertising might imply. If you watched one of those ads with a random little guy who throws swords or blows up hordes of enemies with a coin mechanic- this game has none of that stuff. It primarily has your team of heroes versus an enemy, or an enemy’s team, on a battlefield. There’s some fun strategy to winning battles! The rewards can be pretty good, and the worlds you get to explore are very pretty! The preview as I write this is the best representation of the game! I have played this game for over 100 days so far and I can’t wait to continue playing it for even longer!!

Be careful

(French speaker) I installed the game to play with my friend. I paid for monthly pass and everything. Until we learn that we were not in the same server. The compagnie do not help at all with that. They did not offer server transfert. You have to start a new character. They do not reimburse your money and They do not move the money to the new character. So you end up losing your money or you end up not playing with your friends. My husband and I created a account 10min appart and were places in different server. This was not a good customer service from the compagny. I did not care about my character progress. I only played like 3h on the game. I only wanted my money moved. Hopefully apple will pay me back.

Fun game but sneaky monetisation

Dark Patterns to make you accidentally buy micro transactions… that’s not a nice way to treat your players. If you’re not paying attention it’s very easy to fat finger these sneaky pop ups. Do better guys.

A shop interface without a sense of purpose

As a long-term AFK Arena player, I can definitely say that this game is inferior in almost every way. It’s mostly a selection of clickable shop items and pity rewards. The focus on story and graphics is executed in a way that is actually resulting in less than the sum of its parts -while it’s pretty, it’s also inconsequential and hasn’t resulted in a more engaging game: game sessions are too long, the economy is even more punishing, while offering none of the interesting meta choices of its predecessor, I tried to get into it for while and it turns out to be the least engaging mobile game I’ve played in awhile. There is nothing to do. I was rather surprised considering Liliths commitment to quality but I guess that’s also why the game is not doing as well. Really can’t recommend unless you want the worst of mid core games mix with the worst of casual games.

Everything is excellent except the dragon crystals.

Put simply I love eve about this game except one thing. I’ve been playing since launch and I’ve so far spent very little. I would spend much more because I genuinely love this game but most things in the trolley (in game store) are only purchased with dragon crystals which can only be obtained by directly purchasing them. Unfortunately most of the items, especially the cosmetic items, that I would actually like to get are priced so ridiculously high that it simply can’t be justified. A simple blue recolor of a pair of bat wings that we can unlock for free in the Halloween event would cost 500 dragon crystals which would require me at minimum to spend 20 dollars and that item is relatively cheap as many items and packs cost thousands of dragon crystals. If the prices were lower I likely would have already spent hundreds of dollars (yea I know I’m an addict). But as things are the cost is simply unjustifiable for even the most basic items.

Great game, horrible balancing

This game is great, there’s a ton to do including a vast world and a story that, for all it’s worth, is not that bad at all. There’s countless heroes all with their own move sets and unique abilities as well. Now for the criticism; you only get to use about half those heroes. It’s real bad in the PvE gamemodes but they at least use things such as seasonal artifacts and relics to switch up the meta each season. Which unfortunately, still tends to ignore about 50% of the roster, leaving them entirely useless. It’s especially prevalent if you intend on participating in PvP tho. There is a total of 1 usable team that every single person is always using so it always comes down to who’s heroes have more upgrades. Which is usually just the person who's coughed up more cash for the game. If you do see something even slightly different, you’re equipping that team and thinking “Oh boy, a free win!”. Long story short: This game is amazing for people who either aren’t very competitive or are willing to spend thousands on the game.

Great game but constantly crashing

I’ve been loving this game but the constant crashing is becoming increasingly frustrating. To start I could get about 4/5 afk battles in but now I can only manage 1 and then it crashes. Even exploring the land I can only do small bits at a time b4 it crashes. The constant closing and having to reopen the app is affecting the progress I can make. I have changed it so it’s running on low graphics or whatever it is that’s been suggested on the comments of others and it hasn’t fixed the issue. I feel a fix very soon is needed or you’ll lose a lot of players. I for one am getting to the point where I want to delete the app and never play it (or any other games by the makers) ever again.

Fun game

I love the game good level up very immersive love the pace of the game I have installed over 6-7 different idle games so far and I have so far deleted all of them after awhile but this one has stuck because I have not grown bored of it, I’d really say if I had something to criticize about this game it would be the matchmaking on honor duel for its game mode and the reasoning behind that is It really should just be called Luck duel if anything to start your gameplay all depends on your initial combo and its very clear which ones are better than others as you play this game mode more and get consistent results when you choose that combo as well as when you collect cards for your characters there’s times where I’ll be 3 wins in then get matched with a guy who has 4 legendaries and 1 epic while all I got is 1 legendary and 4 epics at what point is that honorable at that point that’s just a one sided massacre. There was one moment when I had all mythics with great gear attached to them and I had 8 wins no losses I was feeling pretty good all I needed was one more win then just back to back lost 3 rounds and lost the game like what!!!!

Mid game bad service

TLDR: Game crashes often and support team doesn't care/ uninspired gameplay/ loaded with micro transactions.

Saw it online several times, decided to check it out. The game crashes frequently and when going to support for help, they kinda just told me to get a better device. Checked my settings and settings told me that they were already optimized and my device shouldn't be struggling. Overall a bland game with nothing really interesting about it. This game asks for micro transactions more than a Roblox Tycoon does and gameplay is uninspiring.

I thought I had space

So this game takes up a ton of space, I offloaded almost all my other games so I could try it out, and it was worth it! I freaking love the animation the story the cinematography the characters! This game was awesome! And I loved how whatever customized character yiu made still had an animation, so awesome! It was a tight squeeze, I only just had enough storage for the lower resource game. So it’s a five stars!

Or not! What this game forgot to mention in the AppStore is you need additional storage to get to the next level! I went to attack these crazy wolf things while still in the first map and it said ‘downloading level’ and so I was like oh crap I don’t have any more storage to download any extras. So I enjoy the game but please be more transparent in the fact that if you only have enough storage for AFK Journey and none to spare than after you pass the fire and witch level your journey ends. I don’t need you to fix the storage I just need you to be honest and transparent.

I might redownload the app when I have an iPad that has more storage, maybe an iPadPro? Thx guys keep up the good work! (Just fox the transparency issue) 👍
