Leave a Review AFK Journey
Great Game
As far as the hero collector genre goes, some people love it, some hate it. If you are someone who enjoys it, try this out. The devs are really trusted in this space(they also made Dislyte and AFK arena). The game is well thought out, doesn’t push monetization down your throat, lots of care has been put into characters and story, as well as game balance and player experience.
If you start playing and the characters remind you of someone from a different game, it’s because this studio has been copied a million times. Just their character Brutus has been ripped off in more games than I care to count. These guys are known for their character design and world building. Their games tend to be a lot more social and community focused as well, if you’re into that. Casual friendly too. All in all, the genre certainly isn’t perfect, but this studio’s games are always top tier in the genre.Show lesscougarkid699999
Great for what was advertised.
I rarely play any afk based games like this. Usually they’re not my thing. However I found this game to pretty fun. I pre-ordered the game a while back and it gained me a lot of bonuses. I honestly disagree with most of the views of this game. It has a nice storyline so far with pretty cool characters. I don’t think this game is pay to win at all. As long as you take a little while to just get into it, it goes by pretty smooth. Now I hope they make this Mac compatible at some point because currently on my iPhone XR I had to delete it because the quality is too good lol. Even with graphics fully down it would make my phone lag or get pretty hot. My main issue was storage I believe. I think it’s definitely worth the try if you’re into games like this. (Make sure your phone can run it properly though or you have storage, the games pretty large and graphics can easily make your phone lag)Show lessAsh-Cenere
I hate mobile games
Other than AFK arena and now this. When I used to play AFK arena I loved that I could make progress everyday for multiple years and never really ran out of things to do.
AFK journey is light years better in my opinion. There is a lot of QOL improvements from the original game such as itemization applying to ALL of the same class rather than having to gear each individual character. Purples are also nearly 3x more common to draw in my opinion/experience. Upgrading character and ascending them is a massive improvement, only requiring multiples of a character rather than combining low tier characters into food.
The game has improved bosses in a big way, arcane labyrinth is more interesting in my opinion, battlefields are much improved as well with various maps and layouts to account for.
If you liked AFK arena, you will absolutely like this.
I have spent 10 bucks on the “battle pass” type system when the game launched. I currently have 3 character almost max ascension with over a dozen other characters mythic or mythic +. I never find myself being unable to use characters due to being left in the dust.
Really good balance.Show lessDregen Yors Truly
Disappointing
There are new glitches every day that force you to restart, constant crashing, and random Chinese text everywhere. This game feels like it shouldn't have been released this early.
The voice lines can sound awkward and AI generated at times, Lyca's and Florabelle's being the most obvious. Their other games have decent to good voice acting so I have no idea why this is such a problem.
The character customization is VERY limited with the few decent options only being availble to the top handful of whales. There are 4 skintones available, 2 are for humans and 2 are for cadavers. There are 4 hair colors to pick from for the few starting hairstyles, and the ones you unlock have no customization whatsoever. Your character's eyebrows will be bright yellow in every cutscene no matter what hair you choose. And despite AFK Arena/Journey's art style and character design otherwise being unique and interesting, our player character manages to look like a Disney background character. We might as well have just been made to choose between a few premade designs because it's impossible to make them look good. I understand that dressing up our character is not the focus and it shouldn't be, but I still have to constantly look at that ugly dude.
Gameplay is decent and the gacha isn't that bad but the other issues make the game hard to enjoy.Show lessMrBeanSkinwalker

Sorry for the unpleasant experience, we suggest you try uninstalling and reinstalling to switch networks first to see if it resolves, if it still doesn't work. please contact our FB (@AFK Journey) or in-game customer service.Review is for Support division
Yes this is a review on the pc version, this game will perfectly work well on this phone but this is still 100% at the support team. I downloaded the game 4 different times to support a friend and every time downloaded, I could barely play the game for more than 1-2 mins with 7 game crashes. So, I click on support button and no response, repeat, repeat, repeat. All it would say is conversation ended or nothing for the entire time. Worse part is its part of the game window, which means if your game crashes the support tab crashes as well. Their main webpage doesn't even a support section. Nothing, no community, no faqs, not even contact, literally nothing on main page! I thought maybe my last chance would be discord or other association, but no response or cannot find a moderator. Like games usually have a developer nearby or on standby, but it feels impossible. If this is the new standard of games now, then games shouldn't be made.Show lessTonyZRad

They literally took all of the greatest things from AFK Arena, improved them, added some more content and gave us this master piece. For a game whose business concept is a money grab. This is THE BEST one to get. It has a story, amazing character with their fascinating art work, and getting a decent starting team is very simple. Definitely a game worth playing.
After playing more of the story, I am loving the characters which is why I didn’t bring down to 3/5 but the AI voice acting needs improvement. The game is still incredibly enjoyable as a game, but unfortunately the story is hindered by the inconsistencies in AI voice acting. On some of the Characters like Damian it sounds very smooth, but with others like the guy with vine arms (Idr name atm) it very obviously AI voice acting and can remove the some the immersiveness. Enjoying the story but honestly just cause I do like the charactersShow lesskab1rd

It's our great honor to have your love and support. We will continue to optimize dubbing issues. Thank you for your feedback.Fun game terrible performance
This game is poorly optimized for older devices. Takes over a second to register any input and freezes on every tap. Not to mention the number of crashes. It lacks snappiness and responsiveness. I feel like I’m constantly under water playing this game. Like the title says, fun game, when I’m able to play it. Please fix these issues! Also, stop forcing us to play Honor Duel to get weekly rewards (there isn’t a timer that tells you they are weekly, you just have to learn by missing your first rewards if you don’t participate the first week). Honor Duel should not be something you are compelled to complete due to fomo each week by spending half an hour every day waiting for screens to load.
Edit: The developer responded via an apple email which is wonderful. However, when trying to find an email address to respond, I’ve been unsuccessful. I can’t seem to find an email address or formsite to submit the video of the lag issues or contact the developer. I’m assuming I can’t reply to the apple email that showed the developers comment. I don’t use other social medias, so I can’t reply via Facebook as suggested. If you could please send me an email address that I can send the video to.Show lessBc11117:63829

I absolutely adore this game and it’s not easy for games to even garner my attention! I think it’s really fun and challenging and don’t even get me started on the art style—it’s magical. However, like all things, it does have its flaws and isn’t perfect! Like overall world chats and servers aren’t monitored. (and if they are, it’s not very good!) I do wish there was a feature where we could see how many heroes we have out of the ones available or which ones we have and don’t have. I do think some aspects of this game are hard to understand and I’ve been playing since the day before it’s official release. There’s definitely tons of flaws but I hold a deep love for this game and I truly enjoy it. I just hope our voices are heard.Show lessRegTheGreg

Sorry for the frustration. Please tap on the message in the chat to report. Or you can contact us via FB (@AFK Journey) or in-game support and provide the related user ID and screenshot. Be assured, we will deal with it ASAP. You can click Settings---collection---hero to view the heroes in the game.I like it a lot but it lacks support for certain play styles.
THe game overall is super fun and rewarding! Though I personally have found a problem, while this may be unique to me, I don’t play this game for girls with big breasts and men with six packs, I want cool animals on my team and while there are many animals, from a strategic stand point I’m greatly limited. I need support characters and the only GOOD support animal characters is hammy but I prefer having two or more support characters at a time. While there is the weasel guy I personally don’t like his design and his abilities leave MUCH to be desired. So I’d really like to see some variety in not just the animals but also their aesthetics! I would also personally really like a a tall girl character because every girl character just feels the same especially in build.Show lessBash Ountz

Thanks so much for sharing your character suggestions with us. If you have any more suggestions, please let us know via in-game channels.Not that good
Just another money grab app… I will say that the graphics look pretty good, with some cool characters. But once you’ve played for about a week you will surely hit a huge level cap. They will make it seem like it will be easy with enticing you with free draws, but they don’t actually get you very far into the game. They use it more so to get you hooked on trying to get that one card you need. They don’t even really implement a easy way to earn more diamonds maybe a few here and there but not enough to continuously keep playing the game. But they sure have plenty of purchasing options with just outrageous prices 99$ for you to get 7 of the 10 pulls and you may only get once or 2 gold cards but it won’t do much for you overall. After about a week of playing I’m already to the point where I log in do my daily challenges, collect my rewards and get off it within about 15 mins with noting to exiting happing. It might help me clear one or 2 new stages but unless you have a huge wallet there’s not much for you here, because there’s no skill to itShow lessGameRevMaster
