Every single pack is over priced. I used to play a long time ago and things were different. I got busy with life and stayed away for a while and decided to give it a try. I ended up with 26 epic cores and 3 legendary cores. All 26 epic cores gave me epic heroes (the lowest you can get) and the 3 “legendary” core were also a joke. They can summon legendary, or mythic and are super rare or cost around $10 for a pack of one😢. Yep you guessed it, all 3 gave me legendary and no mythic. I’m fair with stuff like this and give games a chance but I summoned with all of those cores and LITERALLY EVERY LAST ONE WAS THE WORST IT COULD BE. I’m done, this is a sinking ship, go spend money on summoners war or something, at least they update their game more than once a year. ### 1/5 — Do they plan to FIX it? *2022-10-18, version 5.4* Been playing for a few years. It’s fun, but constant server issues. Right now the game crashed six days ago and they have yet to get it up and running. People reported it on the forums, no response. Can’t even be bothered to reply on the forums with any updates Don’t waste money on this game like I just did. I don’t mind dropping money on a game I play often and enjoy, but when the creators can’t be bothered to use that money to maintain or update the game with new content (like new area of the map to explore—it’s been literal years!) well, that’s just outright stealing, right there. ### 2/5 — Gamefunguy *2022-08-01, version 5.3* Devs seem to have jump ship! There hasn’t been any new content in over a year. It’s just an never ending cycle of loops with the same events. Not sure why because the game is actually good. Once people stop buying stuff though, this ship will probably all of a sudden sink to its final grave. Wake up devs and put a little something back into this game and keep it afloat!!! ### 1/5 — Where to start… *2022-01-12, version 5.3* If I could go 0 stars I would. Starting from a tech support group that will reiterate the same script without actually looking into the problem is Unsatisfactory for any company. Especially one that will accept money then say “sorry about your luck”. Personally will never play another Rumble game just from the clueless tech support they offer. Game itself is meh at best. The game has a neat concept to it but again the lack of competency from a company will have you running far far away. Save your time and money and stay away from anything RUMBLE!! ### 4/5 — Please sell the game *2021-10-24, version 5.3* This is an outstanding game which the developers basically abandoned. Better than RAID and better than all the Summoners games. Each hero is unique and not just put out there for appearances. Unfortunately the developers have made no effort in adding new content in two years yet still pander for purchases. My hope is that the devs would sell this off to a motivated group of developers and keep this game fresh. The recipe is there for success but a little effort and passion helps. ### 3/5 — Same error keeps happening... *2021-05-25, version 5.3* Game gets stuck in the friends GUI and can’t be recovered without reinstall after some unknown sequence of scrolling....been happening for years....soon I won’t be able to recover the account because it’s linked to an outdated iPhone email address ### 1/5 — Shady business practice/bad company *2020-08-07, version 5.2* Avoid spending any money in this game at all cost as the company truly doesn’t care about what the player base wants. They are only interested in making a quick buck off you before you realize how horrible of a company they truly are. The gear drop rates are atrocious the sheer amount of gold it takes to level gear and rank hero’s is absolutely the worst I’ve ever seen in ANY mobile game. The drop rates for natural 5 star hero’s are bad and as a way around that they try and sell you a “double drop rate” core to trick you into thinking you have better odds. Don’t even get me started on how outlandish they try and price the packs and try to justify it by saying save 87%! for a pack that cost $20 and they’re trying to pass it off as being over a $500 value. Developers have abandoned this game and are making a new one so there is absolutely ZERO new content planned on coming out. ### 4/5 — Great game, however.... *2020-06-02, version 5.2* Why is it that you feel the need to sell against yourselves? There isn’t a reason I can come up with as to to why you have instituted this policy. Bottom line, you don’t need to advertise everyone’s purchases and you don’t need to have the VIP level visible to anyone. ### 1/5 — Random suspensions and horrible technical issues *2019-07-17, version 4.6* Accounts are randomly suspended for no reason. There are glaring technical bugs that never get resolved like horrible session management and broken heros. This is not a f2p friendly game. Don’t fall for Rumble’s lies. This game is dying a slow painful death and Rumble really doesn’t care at all. Honesty just look at the canned responses to other reviews (edit: and this one!) to know exactly what this company is all about. The customer service is deplorable. The communication with the player base is deplorable. The blatant thievery this company engages in is criminal. They will take your money if you give it and then randomly you will log on one day to your account being suspended. Then you will never get an answer to what it even was that you did or what rule you broke. They will call you a cheater. I wish they’d publish it so I could sue them for libel and actually learn what it is they think I did. Don’t believe their lies. STAY AWAY **Developer response:** All reports are thoroughly investigated prior to any action being taken against an account. If an account has been suspended or banned, then we have carefully made the decision that this account violated Rumble's Terms of Service.

If you want a game that has continual power creep and constant pop-ups for in game purchases, this is the game for you. Don’t worry, the top people pay thousands to continually pay for the events, pvp, and whatever recycled content they keep pumping out, so the developers won’t care about you. The game was alright when it first came out but was bought out by another company and is now just a hollow pay2win clone and down right copyright thieving game. Hard pass from me. ## Frequently asked questions about Alliance ### What is Alliance: Heroes of the Spire?
