It says the time doesn’t match and force closes ### 2/5 — It seemed fun *2025-10-27, version 5.7.3* It seemed like a fun game but without any updates i dont want to spend time on it… ### 2/5 — Untrustworthy *2025-05-27, version 5.7.3* The game is fun, I’ve played it multiple times throughout the years. But don’t trust their micro transaction deals. I had one pop up and tell me it was on sale for 1.99 so I bought it. But it charged me 14.42. It’s also not the first time it’s happened with this game. So I won’t be buying anymore of their micros transactions and I suggest you do the same. ### 3/5 — All about the tapping... *2025-05-26, version 5.7.3* Looks good, lots going on, but gets boring quickly. Graphics are great, seems nicely balanced towards you, and in the early stages I got to, the game doesn't seem like a Pay-to-win. A well executed game. But in the end, it quickly turns into hours of quickly tapping the screen. So if tapping is what you want, a bit of hero levelling, this is your game. ### 4/5 — Updates *2025-05-20, version 5.7.3* I like the game but I feel as no updates are coming the last one was over a year ago ### 4/5 — После 4300 начинается буквальная вата *2025-04-05* При резком прохождении этапов стоимость улучшений этапов сбивается и стоимость космическая. После перезапуска стоимость обнуляется в исходное значение. **Developer response:** Hi, we're very sorry you've encountered this issue!

Thank you! ### 1/5 — Stay Away *2025-03-24, version 5.7.3* A perfect mobile game that was sold to the worst possible game developer. They not only don’t update the game, they forget to schedule the automated events so you actually get stuck at points until someone finally notices and turns it back on. They have also banned prominent community members from their social channels for being critical. This game was such a gem that I played for years. People involved should be ashamed of themselves. Absolutely pathetic. ### 4/5 — I like the game *2025-03-24, version 5.7.3* Obviously, I like the game, but I doubt there’s gonna be any more updates or seasons, cause I just reached seasons, but it says they’re not available ### 1/5 — Cuenta perdida/bug *2025-03-16, version 5.7.3* Mi cuenta está perdida , ni cambiando de móvil carga el juego, se sale sola la app.. ### 3/5 — Звук *2025-02-25* Почините звук наконец, уже достало по 20 раз игру перезапускать, чтобы звук не пропадал через секунду после запуска **Developer response:** Hi, we're very sorry you've encountered this issue!

Thank you! ### 1/5 — Mal *2025-01-03, version 5.7.3* Es un buen juego, quise cargar mi progreso avanzado y se sale ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ошибка входа *2026-05-06, version 5.9.0* Играл месяц нормально, после чего написали «Ой, кажется произошла ошибка» Исправьте ### 1/5 — Good game but dead *2026-02-16, version 5.7.3* Last update was 2 years ago but they still keep this game up to milk peoples money. If you play this game, do not spend a penny. It's definitely not worth it and developers already abandoned this game now they're just greedy ### 1/5 — One problem *2025-12-29, version 5.7.3* Sometimes when I log on it puts up a popup to purchase a character. I can’t click off of this popup no matter how many times I click the X button. I have to force close the game and reopen it. It’s really unprofessional if this was done on purpose. If it’s an error then it should get fixed right away. Kids may think they have to actually buy content in order to play which is very unethical. They might not know they have to close the game like I do ### 1/5 — Still Bugged *2025-11-16, version 5.7.3* Game was great for a bit. But game locking bug still exists. ### 1/5 — Can’t load my old save *2025-09-06, version 5.7.3* I wanted to get back into this game, but unfortunately everytime I try and load my cloud save the app crashes ### 1/5 — This game has turned into an ad fest *2025-07-26, version 5.7.3* I use to play this game about a year ago. I thought I would give it another go as it had a catchy hook. Unfortunately it has turned into an ad fest. It’s just unskippable ad after ad for no reason. Uninstalling, such a shame ### 1/5 — Bug *2025-07-10* При подключении к интернету выскакивает предложение комплект открытия героя Арбара который не получается закрыть , перезаходил 1000 раз, почините это **Developer response:** Hi, we're very sorry you've encountered this issue! Please contact us at https://support.decagames.com/hc/en-us with your account details, the device you use and when do you encounter the issue. We'll do our best to resolve it. Thank you! ### 1/5 — Cannot click. *2025-06-28, version 5.7.3* Bad ### 1/5 — Frozen *2025-06-01, version 5.7.3* Ive been playing for a while now and really enjoyed the game. However, ive been getting a pop up as soon as i open it now for a character to purchase and I can’t close the pop up. I tried to delete and redownload but the game refuses to let me go past the purchase. ### 1/5 — Idle… maybe *2025-05-30, version 5.7.3* Downloaded the game, played for awhile, stopped once I realized the game is only idle when it’s on your screen. nothing gained offline. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Almost a Hero - Idle Adventure *2026-07-26, version 5.9.4* Really fun clicking game, amazing graphics, I love how comedic it is. Going through the stages and doing a prestige, using Mythstones, then going again really satisfying game! It’s Awesome I love it! Thx Devs! ### 5/5 — Обновления будут? *2026-05-04, version 5.9.0* Разработчики, привет. Подскажите, пожалуйста, будут ли регулярные обновления в игре? Отслеживал их и последнее было два года назад, а сейчас вижу, что неделю назад выпустили патч. Есть надежда, что игра будет жить! ### 5/5 — F2P friendly! *2026-01-10, version 5.7.3* This game’s original art style and gameplay is top notch! I can see myself playing this for a long time. And, it’s completely F2P with optional ads. I’m loving the game so far. :> ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-12-24, version 5.7.3* Over the years I have played this game a lot! It has optional ads. I try to watch a few here and there to support the devs. It’s rare to see a game you can play for free that doesn’t have constant pop up ads. Most free games also make it difficult for free players to progress. This game is a solid choice for anyone’s phone to help kill time ### 5/5 — Review for DECA *2025-09-23, version 5.7.3* Hello DECA, I respect this game and I enjoy playing it a lot. But right now it feels a bit empty… as if it has become quieter than before. Honestly, I regret that you bought it from Bee Square. If you had supported Bee Square instead, it would have been much better — because updates used to come more often, and the game felt alive. What did you do? You added a few heroes — and that’s it? But that’s not enough. My advice, please listen: if you need money, don’t abandon this game. It means so much to me. ### 5/5 — dead 😭💔 *2025-05-28, version 5.7.3* I love this game so much but it’s been so long since anything has been added. PLEASE do something with this game it’s so good. ### 5/5 — fire *2025-05-09, version 5.7.3* almost as lit as me rn ### 5/5 — Almost a Legend *2025-04-11, version 5.7.3* Game is pretty awesome. Reminiscent of old school mmos, one can enjoy the solo play as well as have space and time to think. Love that it’s not a needing attended game. Also game grants many rewards so not pay to win. ### 5/5 — Spiel macht saß aber... *2025-01-22* Spiele das Spiel nun wieder seit ein paar Wochen, mit ist aber aufgefallen das nichts neues hinzu kam. Es könne mal wieder etwas erneuert werden. Vielleicht neue Helden, Ringe oder neue Spielmodies. Ein paar Bugs sind auch noch vorhanden, zb ab und an ist der Sound einfach weg. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for the feedback! I made sure to forward it to the team.
