### 5/5 — 게임데이터

*2025-10-13, version 2.7.5*

그전에 했던 데이터들이 다 달라갔어요 
분명 광고제거도 샀었는데 그것듀 없어졌구요

### 5/5 — 요즘 보기드문 ㄹㅇ 혜자 게임

*2025-10-01, version 2.7.4*

난 솔직히 지금까지 무과금 충이였움 이 게임은 무과금으로도 충분히 오래 플레이 가능함
던전 열쇠도 실패하면 소모되지 않음
콘텐츠 많음
과금 제품들이 다 저렴함 합리적임

이게임 더 잘도ㅑㅆ으면 좋겠움

### 2/5 — 時間拘束ゲーム

*2025-09-15*

亀裂という時間を拘束するイベントが追加され、ついに放置ゲームではなくなりました。
わりとデイリー系で1時間くらい拘束されがちなので、それでも楽しいと感じるうちは良いゲーム。
村に入ると3分以内に参加しないとゲームオーバーの亀裂というイベントが2日に1回発生。参加しないと村全体に影響が出るので休みづらい。
常になにかしらのイベントがやっていてやることはかなり多い。
面白いけど、放置ゲーとは思わないほうがいいです。

### 1/5 — 更新完無法進入遊戲

*2025-07-12, version 2.6.4*

這次更新完一直卡在讀取跳條90%，無法進入遊戲

### 5/5 — Positive  initial thoughts

*2025-07-07, version 2.6.2*

I will say the game seems to lack a lot of pop-up money grabs. It appears most things can be earned through tasks and rewards from quest and it seems fairly balanced definitely do more to discover but the game seems very well rounded.

### 2/5 — “Forced” double payment

*2025-07-04, version 2.6.1*

It is insane that your purchases don’t transfer over to the global server. At the bare minimum, no ads and VIP should be transferred. It’s insulting to players to make them pay twice when prices are outrageously high.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2025-06-26, version 2.6.0*

So fun game, thanks for fixing bug and let me can play this game again

### 1/5 — The game crashed unexpectedly.

*2025-06-19, version 2.5.6*

i deleted and redownloaded the game but the game still crashes when i log in
