Your investment in making improvements and fixing bugs makes this game a total joy! Thank you! ### 5/5 — 好玩 *2025-12-16, version 2.89.3* 好玩停不下來，又不太需要花錢 ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-12-12, version 2.88.0* More than expected! ### 5/5 — Superb *2025-12-09, version 2.88.0* Awesome game and contact with creator is so easy! If there is any bug, the fix is on the way so smoothly ### 3/5 — Bug *2025-12-09, version 2.88.0* 尼斯洛特符印， 沒有效果， 打中敵人後所偷出來的卡，效果還是敵人的， 例如你偷出來一條龍，龍出來後也還是對方的。 ### 5/5 — Лучшая за долгое время *2025-12-04* Первая и единственная игра, в которую реально хочется играть. Идеально все: легкий юмор, отсылки к DnD, ЛОР и персонажи. ### 5/5 — The perfect mobile game! *2025-12-04, version 2.87.0* I first got this game when looking through the store for something to waste time when I was on a long road trip. I immediately fell in love with it. The game play is so fun, and you’re not bombarded with ads or pay to win screens. Abalon is a true gem! ### 5/5 — Fun and addictive *2025-12-01, version 2.87.0* This is a really fun game. I just want to write this review to support the devs. It’s a fun game that’s not pay to win or chests or boosters or anything like that. Gameplay is original and has good replayability. ### 5/5 — Great Game with Outstanding Dev Response *2025-11-24, version 2.86.0* I recently left a highly competitive game mode that I was a part of for ten years. I spent thousands and really enjoyed my time. I needed something to really drive a solo experience that was extremely challenging but very fun. This game hits on every level. Fantastic leveling system, great pre-game strategy, followed up with great in-game strategy, and hours needed to learn all the hidden advantages of your character in combination with the cards. The difficulty scales very nicely and the highest levels are easily attainable over time. The ultimate win for this game is the developer who actively participates in discord and responds very quickly to any in-game questions or noted bugs. Add in the RNG element that can literally crush your game and you have the best game I have found in the app store. ### 5/5 — Neat *2025-11-11, version 2.83.0* Neat ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Game won’t load *2026-03-06, version 2.89.5* Boooo ### 1/5 — game features are a lie *2025-12-16, version 2.89.3* devs are shady and deceitful, don’t waste your money like i did ### 1/5 — game features are a lie *2025-12-09, version 2.88.0* devs are shady and deceitful, don’t waste your money like i did ### 1/5 — expensive and repetitive *2025-11-27, version 2.87.0* the game isn’t fun after 8-10 hrs, new areas and classes feel the same, not worth the time or money tbh ### 1/5 — expensive and repetitive *2025-11-13, version 2.84.3* the game isn’t fun after 8-10 hrs, new areas and classes feel the same, not with the time or money tbh ### 1/5 — expensive and repetitive *2025-10-20, version 2.80.0* the game isn’t fun after 8-10 hrs, new areas and classes feel the same, not with the time or money tbh ### 1/5 — expensive and repetitive *2025-10-19, version 2.78.0* the game isn’t fun after 8-10 hrs, new areas and classes feel the same, not with the time or money tbh ### 1/5 — expensive and repetitive *2025-10-08, version 2.76.0* the game isn’t fun after 8-10 hrs, new areas and classes feel the same, not with the time or money tbh ### 1/5 — Boring *2025-10-04, version 2.75.0* Bad ### 1/5 — 更新後玩手機很熱 *2025-10-03, version 2.75.0* 有問題 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Greatest phone game *2026-09-02, version 2.97.1* Legit the best phone game have been playing it for a little over a year and absolutely love it! ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2026-07-04, version 2.97.1* This is an amazing game.
