### 3/5 — Fun but bugs

*2026-08-23, version 1.4.47*

Very fun game with 7 chapters of main story and then some side challenges. The main negativity comes from bugs within the game: attempts just straight up freezing with no way to continue on(other than going to the Home Screen and forfeiting any progress) as well as rocks and units loading in the same space(makes you lose a move just to separate the two). 

Also doing: 

1) math to see how the damage varies so much even without critical chance being at issue. It’s odd even with the same element count and unit level, the damage isn’t consistent and sometimes you just don’t finish an enemy by the smallest of margins. 

2) how random damage works(like the catcus for example) because NUMEROUS times I can have units filling only like 3-4 spaces out of 21 spots, and the catcus will hit my units ONLY and not a single empty spot.

### 5/5 — Actually difficult

*2026-08-20, version 1.4.47*

Amazing, never get games like this that are actually hard and I love it. There are levels that I get stuck on for 30 attempts until I perfect my strategy.

### 1/5 — Game is dead…

*2026-08-20, version 1.4.47*

Game is dead, nowhere to go. 

Chests and S tier gear inaccessible and extremely expensive compared to other games - also why is there no benefit to saving up for 10 chest open? Literally same price. 


No thought into Star levels, stuck on 2 because it’s impossible to not be hit by enemies that randomly target on death. 

Levels take too long to come out, substance is lacking and game is going nowhere anytime soon.

### 5/5 — I rarely write game reviews

*2026-08-18, version 1.4.47*

This game has been so fun since day one. I love the joys of figuring out strategies to win each new level. Some strategies don’t work the same way on other levels. I always look forward to playing this game!!!

### 3/5 — Used to work

*2026-08-18, version 1.4.47*

The game was fun until one day it stopped working. It says authentication error. Please fix.

### 1/5 — UPDATED: Many Things

*2026-08-18, version 1.4.47*

**THE GAME WILL “CRASH” AND CLOSE WHEN YOU ARE WINNING. YOU WILL HAVE TO START OVER FROM THE BEGINNING.👎** Why is there a limit on friend requests? REMOVE THE LIMIT! I wish angel helpers would activate only when there are enemies on the board. The timers should PAUSE during animations/cutscenes you can’t skip. The energy cap is overdone in games 😪. Merges often miss even when you hover over the little guys.

### 1/5 — ⭐ 1/5 – Completely Broken After the Latest Update

*2026-08-18, version 1.4.47*

I enjoyed Amazeus before the most recent update, but unfortunately, the game is now completely unusable. Since updating, the app will not even open, making it impossible to play at all.

What makes this even more frustrating is the complete lack of communication from the developers. There has been zero information, acknowledgment, or guidance regarding the issue. If an update causes a game to stop functioning entirely, players should at least receive some indication that the problem is known and being addressed.

Bugs happen. Updates go wrong. But leaving players with a game that won’t launch and providing no communication whatsoever is unacceptable.

Until the developers fix the issue and improve their communication with the player community, I cannot recommend Amazeus. A game that cannot open is not a functioning product.

### 5/5 — Waiting

*2026-08-17, version 1.4.47*

Waiting on new chapter and a new weapon hopefully! 
Sling shot hits an enemy and bounces off the wall to hit another idk.

### 3/5 — Slow to Update

*2026-08-16, version 1.4.47*

Great game! Such a shame that not more of the content was planned out before the full game was released. Took very little time to experience everything the game had to offer before being stuck at a “Coming Soon” cap on all content. Feels like the game was trying to cash in on its fantastic gameplay before it had more of a game. Hope to see more soon!

### 4/5 — Great but needs more content

*2026-08-12, version 1.4.47*

I thoroughly enjoy the game. But unfortunately the game needs more content. I’ve capped out on the stars. I’ve been done with the story. I’m upgraded to a max amount. It’s just hard to stay interested when you’re constantly waiting for more playable levels.
