### 2/5 — The issue is

*2026-06-28, version 1.22.0*

If you get a new phone all your progress will disappear and all the money spent, gone and that’s no good.

### 2/5 — Enemie’s turn??

*2026-06-27, version 1.22.0*

What a turn off to get hit with that every turn

Is this ai made? Cute but just eh.

### 4/5 — 楽しいです

*2026-05-21*

広告を見てガチャを回す機能はちゃんと機能してます。結構ガチャが回せて、レア度が低いキャラクターでも強化すればかなり使えるので無課金でも楽しめます。

### 4/5 — Чёрные «прямоугольники»

*2026-01-06*

Каждая часть тела и предметы, кои они держат почему-то имеют чёрную обводку. Я заметил это пару месяцев назад, просьба исправить ошибку, очень режет глаза

### 5/5 — 能否增加安卓ios互通？

*2025-10-07, version 1.18.1*

能否让我的安卓 ios 甚至pc数据互通。我不想每个平台都单独打一次。

### 3/5 — Game itself is 5 stars

*2025-08-01, version 1.18.0*

The game is amazing, love it! 

BUT! 

Because of the new update/event I’ve been having issues with the in game text and shopping (in chaos area) so I thought I’d fix it by deleting and reinstalling the game… 
-And it deleted ALL of my progress! I guess there either wasn’t a save progress mechanic or the save function just didn’t work because now I have to start from scratch and I seriously don’t want to. 

If the developers/admins see this, plz help me regain my progress? If not then I’m unfortunately gonna have to end my game journey here on a bittersweet note…

### 5/5 — 面白い！

*2025-07-20*

キャラのデザインもゲーム性も大好きです！
そろそろアップデートきてくれ〜！

### 5/5 — W game

*2025-06-29, version 1.17.0*

It’s everything I like in one game :) (call me a mythology nerd I don’t care mwe he he he) also one suggestion, can you have consistent new character banners? Even reruns would be great 😭

### 5/5 — 良いゲーム

*2025-06-09*

ストーリーが本当に面白い！キャラクターたちが個性豊かで、感情移入しやすいです。

### 2/5 — It’s really fun and I’ve played it for awhile

*2025-06-09, version 1.17.0*

I’m still hooked. I like switching between different characters and it keeps things fresh and the drops are pretty generous.

### 4/5 — Очень нравится игра, добавьте событий и обновлений

*2025-06-08*

Игра очень нравится, но там практически сразу кончаются возможности роста и развития из-за отсутствий ивентов и обновлений, например в компании всего пять этапов, дальше их просто нет, хочется дальнейшего развития и тд

### 2/5 — So many things don’t work right

*2025-06-06, version 1.17.0*

It’s a fun enough game similar to slay the spire but there are multiple things that do not at all work as written. It makes playing the game quite annoying when you try to build your deck but things don’t work the way they are worded. On top of that the way certain characters are designed it makes it almost if not entirely impossible to win the second to last stage. You lose more life playing a defensive spell than it would block for.

### 5/5 — Игра топ

*2025-06-05*

Добрый день, почему у меня нет событий и баннеры для открытия новых персонажей не работает
Хотелось бы играть в игру с полным доступом

### 1/5 — abandoned crusial visual glitch

*2026-07-26*

敵・味方双方の神の本来透明であるべき部分が黒くなり、しかも黒部分はレイヤーの一番上に来て、カードテキストや体力に被って見えなくなる。このバグはdiscordで数件報告されているが、放置されて治されていない。Unplayable. 0/10

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-04-13, version 1.21.0*

The cards just straight up don’t do what they say they do. Most cards have two damage numbers or two block numbers. The one in the top left is the real number while the one in the text box is just a lie for some reason.

### 1/5 — Игра прекрасная но

*2026-03-18, version 1.21.0*

Игра неблагодарна. И я не про рандом - она конечна. Задумка - потрясающая, реализация - вау, но контента в ней невероятно мало. Ресурсы получаемые с данжей рядом не стоят с теми что можно получить донатом. Я не очень то и мало потратил на эту игру - не жалею ни об одной монетке, но как задумываюсь как долго бы я получал это все игровым путем… буквально годами. Нужно больше всего: новых режимов, новых абилок и прокачек, в том числе облегченного доната, минимальный ценник очень высокий, хотелось бы чтобы каждый мог себе позволить иметь свою вайфу или любимую имбу на хорошей прокачке. Заберите мои деньги но делайте игру :D
Я С УДОВОЛЬСТВИЕМ ПОМЕНЯЮ ОЦЕНКУ когда увижу новый контент и более дешевые паки доната

### 1/5 — Game is not finished

*2025-08-16, version 1.18.1*

Adventure mode ends in a day lol

### 1/5 — スマートフォン向きのゲームではない

*2025-07-28*

カードの文字が小さすぎて読めない。画面の下の方にカードがあるのでフリックしようとするとメニュー画面が出てきてしまう。ゲームも説明が多すぎるしテンポが悪い。

### 1/5 — made in 中国？

*2025-07-28*

無料広告の機能は死んでるしイベントは更新しないのでいつまで経っても始まらない、日本語の説明がわかりづらい
カード効果の不具合ばっか（血怒りと血の儀式の効果が山札に適応されない、火炎の柱と火炎の防御の威力やユニークカードスィアチの目の効果などなど…他にも多数。ろくなテストプレイもされてない上、運営が生きてるかもわからないくらい更新が途絶えてるので課金はオススメしません。なぜこんな粗末な作りで評価が高いのか私にはわかりませんw
無駄に時間を使うなら脳死で祈り捧げてた方が簡単かつ効率的。神を冒涜してる。怒られろ

### 1/5 — Unplanned Updates

*2025-06-25, version 1.17.0*

Do not waste your money on this game. The devs have stated in their discord they have no plans to update the game, so everything should be grindable.

### 1/5 — 글자가 너무작음

*2025-05-28*

가독성 거지같음 그리고 중간광고 나옴 ㅋㅋ

### 1/5 — not well thought out

*2025-05-18, version 1.17.0*

for a start, the in game payments are incredibly predatory with high prices, many different purchaseable resources, and several battlepasses that renew weekly. i strongly urge that you do not spend any money on this game. secondly, this game is intensely unbalanced at higher difficulties. some player characters with elemental weaknesses get instantly killed by stage modifiers from difficulty levels. one glaring issue is that you cannot even obtain oracle tomes without in game purchases, as there is no loot drop and isnt sold in any in game currency shops, meaning that you cannot level up oracle characters that you own or earn the achievements for characters having all classes unlocked without spending real life money. the end game content is also heavily pay walled by resources that youre strongly encouraged to purchase with the presence of bundles, one time purchases, and first time purchase rewards. the game also advertises sales frequently for the purchase of bundles, complete with a timer that ticks down and then refreshes afterwards. i personally believe this game is fun and has potential but i request that you do not support the predatory purchases while this game is not in a finished state.

### 1/5 — Not a rogue like

*2024-12-19, version 1.15.1*

This game is a scam. It is in o way a rogue like game. You choose everything you want before the adventure. Imagine BOS but you got to choose and get all your power ups before hand and all the bosses are always the same. It’s a scam. Don’t get the game

### 5/5 — Solid game. Genuinely fun

*2026-08-19, version 1.22.0*

I’m enjoying this game a lot! I don’t usually play card games but I found myself really being drawn into this game. Finding different synergies, figuring out what works and what doesn’t. Plus, the art style is gorgeous. This is an unexpected fave!

### 5/5 — Parfait

*2026-08-06*

Le jeu est un free to play agréable, bien construit où vous êtes libre de créer et d’explorer les personnages et les cartes afin de jouer à votre manière.

J’ai plaisir à y retourner ponctuellement pour voir les nouveaux événements

### 5/5 — Когда Обновление и новый Эвент?

*2026-08-04*

Игра топ, подскажите когда будет обновление, событие и Банер призывов с персонажами события?

### 5/5 — Игра топ

*2026-07-30*

Можно ли перенести сохранения с андроид на айфон? У меня не поучилось…

### 5/5 — Unexpectedly Excellent

*2026-05-31, version 1.22.0*

To start it off, the game is great fun. Multiple interesting game modes. You’ll unlock deckbuilding, and that adds a new element. 16 different archetypes that really feel different. Lots of depth. A real, quality deckbuilder.

And then the monetization is somehow hiding out behind the curtains? You CAN spend $10ish to meaningfully improve your progress / double your gacha odds, but not only do you really not need to, the rates themselves are exceedingly generous for people who are happy to put a little money into it.

I don’t think I’ve played a full, original mobile game like this before and been so pleased with the gameplay itself while also being blown away by how player friendly it is. Mad respect. Thank you, devs.

### 5/5 — 이게 뭐냐?!?!

*2026-03-18*

1. 재밌음.
2. 광고 있음(그래서 무진장 감사함).
3. 지루하지 않음.
4. 과금이 필요 없음.
5. 간단하고 직관적인 플레이 방법.
6. 반대로 광활하고, 다양한 육성 방법.
7. 이 와중에 말도 안 되는 자유도.
8. 지루할 틈이 없는 컨텐츠.
9. 광고 배치부터 자원 사용법까지 제작사의 사랑과 열정이 느껴짐.

이상 “이게 뭐냐?!?!” 싶은 본 게임의 리뷰 입니다.

### 5/5 — 내가 유명했으면 이겜 홍보했다

*2026-01-13*

게임을 시작하면 2~5만원만 지르고 그만두는데
이 게임은 아무 옵션도 없는 스킨도
다 구매할 만큼 재미있었다.
모든 과금은 유저의 선택사항

레벨디자인이 완벽해서
BM은 계발자를 응원하고 싶은 사람만 사도 되는 정도..

헤비 게임러라면 광고제거만 구매해도
2~5일이면 모든 컨텐츠를 다 즐기겠지만
정말 즐거웠기에 더 질러도 아깝지
않을 게임

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-12-16, version 1.19.0*

Game is fun with some challenge. Still feels like it has room to grow but otherwise a great rogue like deck builder.

### 5/5 — Fun so far

*2025-12-15, version 1.19.0*

Fun so far!

### 5/5 — Units

*2025-11-06, version 1.19.0*

I really like this game. I have one problem though when I’m playing and I kill an enemy the outline of their body remains in black and it’s hard to see what’s behind is hard to explain what I’m trying to say but it’s some sort of graphic error, apart from that the game is awesome.
