Solid

It’s a good stable game. What impresses me the most is that there isn’t even a hint of micro transactions. No ads no money grabs, I literally looked everywhere and can’t find a way to pay for anything. Every day for no other reason than their appreciation of me playing their game I’m rewarded plenty of in game currency to steadily build my deck and level my cards.

I rarely ever write a review for the games I play because all the feedback they need comes from my wallet. Here, I have to show gratitude for building a decent game that is fun, free and fair. That said I truly hope this free game stays free however I would suggest allowing donations, I would surely donate and would not even want in game rewards other than maybe skins to keep a fair balance in this game.

Thank you for something I have not seen before. Bravo!

Love the Game

I am really enjoying the game thus far. I’m level 20 and I am enjoying the special events. Make more? Also, getting shards of cards but you can’t play the card is strange. Maybe make that part more clear. I’ve bought shards in the marketplace but that doesn’t give you the card itself? Overall great game.

Exploit exposure

I love the game but at the time of me writing this there is an exploit with the minion “shadow ghost” your enemy can keep moving the troop around the board without the timer running out. They will do this until you fatigue and choose to surrender causing you to lose your rank and the battle. Please look into this and remove it. Other than that, I enjoy the game and look forward to seeing how you expand it in the future.

The game runs perfectly and is very fun

This is literally the best mobile strategy game i have downloaded so far. Loads of characters, spells and minions to set up your deck. Multiplayer match up is balanced and the game mechanics make it a awesome new addition to the genre. I love chess and this game basically brings chess to life in the way you want it to and makes it so much fun.

Balancing problem

Having a lot of fun but Cryon is way too overpowered and idk how you could even let a character like that pass. He is nearly unbeatable if your character is melee and can get his combo burst off THE FIRST TURN so you can’t even move the entire game.

Hi SirWeenieMan, sorry for the frustration this caused. We understand your concern about Cryon feeling overpowered, especially against melee heroes and early Burst activation. Your balance feedback has been noted and will be shared with the team for review as we continue adjusting hero balance. – Chess Rumble Support Team

Blank black screen

As many others have experienced. Will change rating stars when fixed.

Pass.

Broken system. You will 8/10 lose in PVP. It’s a pay to win garbage game. Just play something else. [EDIT]: NEW BUGS WEEKLY. Avoid wasting your time here.

Great game but…

UPDATE : I’ve noticed the increase in game events & double boosts for the exchange coins! Thank you devs! I truly believe little events like this will help new players like myself lvl up in the game. Once again thank you for making a super fun game! Maybe in the future if we can update hit points and health on heroes and characters to give everyone a better fighting chance to not lose in 2 turns. Thank you!

Amazing game!! Love the new take on the strategy. But as I progress do the arena you do see it as pay to play.. I love the chance to constantly gain daily coins to buy from the market.. and the market is fairly cheap.. but pleaseeee don’t be like clash Royale.. this game has such amazing potential!

Fun game

Game is really fun. Haven’t hit a paywall yet so that’s good. 4 stars because I’m genuinely not sure if I’m playing against players or bots in the “PvP” arena. Either the players move really fast and are terrible, or they’re bots

Good game, but…

The progression is weird and a lot of the time the characters you unlock aren’t even close to being better than the first ones. I am only giving it a 5 star review cause I don’t want to tank the reviews cause over all this is a fun game.

Fresh, skill based game

Doesn’t require paying to advance, though of all the 100 top players only one uses Rex. Seems he is the least used but represents an important play style. Could he get a buff please?

Hi Avexar, thanks for the feedback and for sharing your observations. We understand your concern about Rex’s low usage despite his unique playstyle. Your suggestion will be forwarded to the team for consideration as we continue reviewing balance. We appreciate you taking the time to share this. – Chess Rumble Support Team

Can’t stop

I actually haven’t been able to stop playing this game. I really like it. I do agree though that it is early on and that time is needed to progress but we do need more to do if that makes sense.

Extremely unbalanced

I want to love this game so much but I just can’t. I have made it all the way to the last arena and I’ve enjoyed the grind, but now there’s no reward for playing. If you try and use a new hero, you’re punished for it since they start out so underpowered and there’s no way to increase their level aside from spending money. Now I’m trapped in a bracket where my choice is to either play characters I got tokens for that I don’t enjoy, or just get beaten over and over again until the fates decide to put a preferred characters token in the shop. The loop is amazing, but player or character balancing of some sort needs to be taken into some serious consideration

Just one thing

The periods look like commas and it’s a bit jarring. Maybe they should be smaller, rounder, or altogether removed idk

Fun but some hero’s need balancing.

I have been playing since release, I believe most hero’s are balanced but some like Redow have no counters especially if you have a ranged hero. I think his anti range ability should be reduced to 2 turns at least.
