### 5/5 — Best game ever

*2026-07-17*

How do I get witch herb? 
Where is the Commodity section?

I wish I could turn on Save One of Everything and then turn it off for individual items like artifacts

### 5/5 — ‘Tism heaven

*2026-07-13*

Honestly I think this is a great incremental.   Sure it might just fit my brain type, but the progression is satisfying, complex but understandable.   
There’s always something to focus on, and the offline progression helps fund everything.     

No forced ads.   Inventory space is limited, but there infinitely expandable by buying it.   

Just follow the guidelines quests if you get lost.  Easy 👍

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2026-07-12*

I wish I could watch ads to help make you money and receive permanent bonuses

### 5/5 — Great idle game

*2026-07-11*

I love a good idle game and this one ticks all the boxes. Magic, progression, quests, strategy. I am dismayed to find no strategy guides available maybe I should make one.

### 5/5 — This is beautiful

*2026-06-30*

This is looking like such a deep and progressive idle to rival the best in the niche. I am loving it the guild quests, completion log and general progression in the game so far. Can see myself really going far on here. 

Thank you also for no forced ads or pushy p2w!

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-06-30*

Really enjoying it so far

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2026-06-21*

Loving this game, I’ve played all of TopCog’s games and this one is polished and complex already I cannot wait to see where this one goes

**Developer response:** Thanks, glad you are enjoying it! :-)

### 5/5 — A Gem

*2026-06-20*

Having a great time so far. Can play it completely offline and love the option for the turbo feature where I can constantly do things instead of waiting and waiting in a classic idle. But they also have the option for the idlers as well. Please keep the turbo mode and the ability to play offline and I’ll keep coming back through the updates to play more and more! All around great chill game to play.

**Developer response:** Glad you're enjoying it! I love the Turbo mode myself as well. Cheers! :-D

### 1/5 — Still broken, impossible to complete.

*2026-08-21*

I'm at about 72% completion. The game has intermittent crashes, I assume because it is written as one ElseIf block. Or extreme memory leaks. Or image data size WAY too large, overfilling RAM. This was fine at 10%, it does a quick re-load of the game, but now after about a month of gameplay, I cannot load into the game at all, it crashes before it can load in. There is also a bit of strangeness with the audio, fairly buggy but I have no idea about that. These issues are prevalent on the previous update and current one. I expect it to be solved quickly, seeing as it is interfering with income from mtx.

21st August, Bug has not been fixed. Downgrading to 1 star.
Fun game, but still unplayable after ~72%. Endgame is just crashes now :/

### 1/5 — Perdu tout mon progrès

*2026-08-20*

Bug de sauvegarde, j'ai lancé l'appli et tout mon progrès avait disparu, tout à 0

### 1/5 — Баг с картой

*2026-07-28*

Отсутствует карта, невозможно сменить локацию

### 2/5 — Very broken, impossible to complete.

### 4/5 — Греет телефон

*2026-07-20*

Отличная игра, но очень сильно греет телефон.

### 5/5 — Nice, something different from Mevlor idle. Refreshing…

*2026-08-23*

I enjoy it, not a clone from Melvor Idle, hope updates keep coming. Got potential.

### 5/5 — Engaging and well thought out

*2026-08-06*

This is a fresh take on the Melvor style incremental game, with unique and engaging mechanics.  Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-07-31*

Feels like there is a lot of depth.

### 5/5 — Top Tier idle game

*2026-07-29*

This is for all the folks who have tried to start file in Melvor and got bored, lost, or confused 20 minutes in. Trims a ton of the fat and does a really fantastic job of drip feeding you features and unlocks well into multiple days of gameplay. The monetization is fair and not at all required, no intrusive ads. Just an all around fantastic game.

### 5/5 — Chef’s Kiss

*2026-07-28*

One of my favourite all time idle games for mobile (and all platforms for that matter). The only monetization options stay out of your face and are completely optional. There is plenty of different interlocking mechanics with a satisfying progression system.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the rating and review! So glad you're enjoying the game! :-D

### 5/5 — Best game I’ve ever played

*2026-07-25*

this game is so fun, there so many things to do and I’m lovin it, my only complaint is there’s not enough electric guitar music…although I could help with that.

**Developer response:** Ha, fair enough! Glad you're enjoying it!

### 5/5 — This game is a lot of fun!

*2026-07-20*

I enjoy the game for its rich palette of leveling trees and its economic system, nicely balanced

**Developer response:** Thanks for the rating and review! So glad you're enjoying the game! :-D

### 5/5 — Struck Gold Again

*2026-07-19*

Another great game from TopCog. Archmage hits all the right notes for a top tier idle game. I look forward to further updates and whatever games come next.

**Developer response:** Awesome, glad this hit the spot! I have a v2.0 update coming with a major new mechanic, and the next game will be coming out soon too! :-D

### 5/5 — Addictive

*2026-07-19*

The way this game has been developed is top class just constantly on the move it’s no idle game like the others it’s a strategy on how to progress and what to optimise first

### 5/5 — Interesting and complex idle game

*2026-07-17*

Clean UI helps guide you through lots of different screens that offer some method of progress, with guild quests and interlinking bonuses to encourage variety and exploration. Really fun so far.
