The last update for the game was 3 months ago and it states they *adjusts glasses* “bug-fixed” that’s awfully vague, what about fixing the arena that hasn’t worked for most likely over a month. If the game is dead then pull it from the store so nobody has to waste their time, there’s no active support, the company seems to just churn out games expecting income from the in game purchases, if you want money why not make an actual working product?? I hope the developer responds to this review because they actually have a good game but their updates are so lack luster and infrequent it’s like they don’t want people to play. What’s the point if it’s just a ulala clone with no actual forward progression and incentives then this SHOULD be just pulled from apples store. If you’re someone who wants to play this game just download ulala it has more support and updates than this dumpster fire. ### 4/5 — I enjoy the game, however *2023-01-16, version 1.4.0* I downloaded this game form a website that said it would farm crypto (Solana). I dont see it. ### 4/5 — Fun game *2022-06-12* It’s a fun game to kill some time but the only issue I have is the ai companions. Would be nice if we could tweak some stuff like skill order or improve some aspect to make them be more useful to the player because they are squishy or skills are used incorrectly in many situations **Developer response:** Greetings, Adventurers! Thank you for your kind feedback! We hope you experience awesome game play with Chromatic Souls : AFK Raid! ### 4/5 — Really fun! *2022-06-03* I’m having a lot of fun but the talents are never explained in the tutorial and I’m knew to this kind of thing. Idk what they all mean or do which is difficult to make a good character. The game scales enemies pretty well until you hit a wall for days or a week and after slowly upgrading all your gear, and I mean very very slowly, you’ll break the wall and continue on. Unless of course you pay to play then it’s no big deal. It’s still fun and rewarding though. **Developer response:** Welcome, Adventurers! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting Chromatic Souls : AFK Raid! We'll do our best to make it even more enjoyable for you! ### 2/5 — Good but needs optimization *2022-05-30* Game is typical of an idle RPG - nothing new. Reconnecting to the game within a few seconds requires complete shutdown and reload. Battery usage is horrendous. I can run AAA games for hours without battery issues. This game gets me down to the 20% warning in just a couple hours on a brand new pro max iPhone without any other apps running. Needs work for sure. **Developer response:** We apologize for the inconvenience. We will work harder to improve the game. Please try reinstall the game and let us know if you the issue keep occurs via HIVE customer support(https://customer-m.withhive.com/ask) and share detailed information about the issue you've encountered. ### 2/5 — What’s the point *2022-05-28* Game is basically 4 players or one player and three NPC running down the same path killing monsters. Boring. It’s the same thing over and over and over… I was hoping that once your character reaches some level the game would get interesting but no… I can see the most of the people who play stop after realizing it’s not getting any more interesting over time. Trying to invite players to join you is frustrating due to so many non active players. The reward systems are redundant and have to keep “getting your rewards” multiple times from the same place… bit irritating. I won’t get to the in game delays where you get a reward but does register for a while. The story line is nonsense so.. what’s. The Point? **Developer response:** We appreciate the time you’ve taken to give us the feedback and will definitely share it with the team. We hope to bring you a better experience. ### 4/5 — Fun but… *2022-05-28, version 1.0.18* First off, I really like the game. But I find myself not having enough to do in the game. That is not necessarily a bad thing. But when you have the time and want to really immerse yourself into the game, there isn’t much to do. You simply cannot farm enough materials to even roll for basic armor. There are timers for bosses that drop mats. Going AFK only farms gold and exp. It may take several days to gather material to roll for a new piece of armor in the RNG style. The same material is used for upgrading your armor so essentially you choose to either roll for new armor or upgrade your old. Every player I’ve seen is still using the beginner armor maxed at lvl 10. Even at the higher levels. Skills are not unlocked with experience. Skills are received through the same RNG type system then fuse the same skills together to make your them stronger. Even though there are elements such as ice>fire etc., you will end up using the highest level skills you have coming out of the RNG. For example if you keep rolling the same skill, like an earth type, it ends up being your strongest skill which you will always have to use since all your other skills are stuck at low levels. After a while you also get to a point where the bosses are too strong to beat. Even if you are a high level and in a full party, you will need to wait for other players to level up their characters. If they don’t, find new members or a new party which could take a while. This could actually place you all the way back to whatever floor or zone the lowest person in your party is and you will have to fight your way back to the zone you were at. I’m not a solo player but I can see that it is nearly impossible to progress without a full party since the ally bots are much weaker than any actual player. Recommendations: 1. Provide more opportunities to find crafting materials by adding different types of materials, not just iron. Maybe iron for rolling new gear, and item drops from bosses like tails, claws, or horns to upgrade. Also let us go back to farm weaker zone bosses for upgrade items. 2. Allow for rolling specific types of elements for skills so you are not stuck with whatever elements pop up the most. If I want to upgrade my fire skills, allow me to only roll for fire skills. 3. Add more items that give temporary boosts. ATK/DEF up for 30min, etc. so that I’m not waiting for my party to level their characters up for days, or kick them and wait for someone else to join or accept an invite. It can be character specific such as Mages can craft Skill ATK power potions. 4. Allow solo players to temporarily ‘hire’ other players at will. Add a tavern where players can set themselves up for hire, and others can hire for gold or other currency to help kill a set number of bosses. This allows stronger players to help weaker players without being stuck in a party with them and giving up their own. Also allows solo players to get ahead without being in an actual party. TLDR: Add housing ‘cause that would awesome. ### 4/5 — Materials and Dungeons *2022-05-27* The Dungeons get too hard too fast. I dont seem to have any other way to rank skills or get new gear. Even with a team its hard to defeat some of them dungeon bosses. Also the drops are paltry. Its not even worth it going after them. I like the game and want to keep playing but I am not getting enough material to defeat any bosses. Sigh!! Also why does my character look sad. I thought they all came with an option for a costume. **Developer response:** We are sorry to hear that we have not met your expectation :( We'll try our best to provide you a better gaming experience. Thank you for your time. ### 4/5 — Fun *2022-05-24, version 1.0.17* Fun as it is..need a bit more for events and for the love of everything even a little something for the F2P to even try and keep up ### 2/5 — AFK is right. *2022-05-24, version 1.0.17* You’ll download the app, be forced into a ridiculously long tutorial, and then close the app for 3 days while it AFK grinds for you. Uninstalled. ### 2/5 — Could be great *2022-05-24* Over complicated for no reason. It seems like a lot of stuff has just been thrown into the game just to have stuff in the game. Understand that sometimes less is more. Streamline the UI and simplify the features. It’s definitely an Asian style rpg and anyone who’s played some jpgs knows what I’m talking about. The games are fun but full of tons nonsense that doesn’t add anything to the actual game. **Developer response:** We are sorry to hear that we have not met your expectation :( We'll try our best to provide you a better gaming experience. Thank you for your time. ### 4/5 — So far so good *2022-05-23* Been playing for about an hour and it is a nice little time waster. However. I see party members don’t log in for days and they need to be booted after a certain amount of time not logging in. **Developer response:** We appreciate the time you’ve taken to give us the feedback and will definitely share it with the team. We hope to bring you a better experience. ### 3/5 — Annoying UI and tutorial *2022-05-22* The devs should take a page from Valor Legends for a good UI and tutorial. This one has chat all over the screen, equipment windows covering the intended screen you’re trying. To learn form and clunky advancement as you level up. Two thumbs meh **Developer response:** We are sorry to hear that we have not met your expectation :( We'll try our best to provide you a better gaming experience. Thank you for your time. ### 4/5 — Network error *2022-05-20, version 1.0.17* why do I offen offline ### 4/5 — Remove inactive players from parties *2022-05-18* Overall fantastic game but the only suggestion I’d like hopefully implemented is the ability to remove a inactive play from a party cause for Ex. For 5 days now are mage has not logged in to play so they haven’t upgraded any abilities, gear ect. Which isn’t helping the party at all. **Developer response:** We appreciate the time you’ve taken to give us the feedback. We hope you experience awesome game play with Chromatic Souls : AFK Raid! ### 4/5 — Single play *2022-05-17* While the game is fun and addicting, it would be nice for those of us who like to play single, without groups, to be able to keep up a bit with those that do. I’ve pretty much stalled out as CPU members of my party don’t progress nearly as fast and seem to die immediately at this point. I get that the point is to encourage guilds, but at the same time, it would be nice to not have to build my character to be able to basically beat dungeon bosses and win on his own. **Developer response:** We appreciate the time you’ve taken to give us the feedback and will definitely share it with the team. We hope to bring you a better experience. ### 4/5 — good game *2022-05-16, version 1.0.17* this game is good ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The original was much better. *2023-01-14, version 1.4.0* The only thing to say about this game is go back to the original game. No reason to play this game. ### 1/5 — NFT to Win *2022-07-03, version 1.1.40* The game is based around buying and investing in NFT’s. NFT’s can purchase far superior gear, compared to P2P players. F2P eventually get stuck and cannot progress. This game is all about money, the content and story line is very very weak itself. ### 1/5 — Garbage servers *2022-06-12, version 1.1.31* Decent game but the server kicking you out 10 times in 30 minutes is just not acceptable. ### 1/5 — Scammy *2022-06-08, version 1.1.31* Cost of crafting blues is 6 times what it used to be after June update. Good luck with this dead game, half my friend list has gone inactive. You guys are way too greedy for a pretty repetitive game. ### 1/5 — What kind of terrible game is this? *2022-05-28, version 1.0.18* There’s nothing to do here. Even AFK games have clicking or SOMETHING. This shell of a game was made to show off your NFTs. Unfortunately not a real game. It’s like building an empty vending machine so you have a use for your coin collection. ### 1/5 — Awful *2022-05-21, version 1.0.17* What a piece of crap ### 1/5 — Boring!! *2022-05-20, version 1.0.17* Absolutely boring game, don’t recommend! ### 1/5 — Boring game *2022-05-17, version 1.0.17* Very bring ### 1/5 — Bug *2022-05-13, version 1.0.17* Can’t get past the refund tutorial as I already maxed out my hat!!! ### 1/5 — Fix the party invite system *2022-05-03, version 1.0.15* Fix the party invite system already since it’s a core feature of the game. Every time I add another player and invite to raid it says party requirements not met. Why is this not being addressed. Fix it or lose me as a player. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Competitor to Ulala *2022-09-18* Guys, You have a made a great game. I can only hope this takes off. I do think it’s better than Ulala. You make it better to play solo. I hope you guys could patch in a way to have solo players adjust the NPC skills and make them a little more adjustable. Other than that this game is great. Great work and thank you for making it! ### 5/5 — Good game *2022-05-29, version 1.0.18* Good game ### 5/5 — Deep *2022-05-27, version 1.0.18* Really enjoying the game so far wish the devs gave out more stuff to f2p ### 5/5 — Good game, but not good enough *2022-05-26* As a mobile game is very good, easy, fun and pleasing painting style. But often can not connect to the network, please improve the stability of the server. Also, I hope to add the choice of male and female characters for each occupation. **Developer response:** We appreciate the time you’ve taken to give us the feedback and will definitely share it with the team. We hope to bring you a better experience. ### 5/5 — 이 게임은 스킬 설명이랑 실제 스킬이 다르다?! 세상에.. *2022-05-24, version 1.0.17* 사건의발단 : 오늘 달인의 비전 보주 획득 60초간 매초 스킬 나간다더니 실제론 3초 나감 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ (이외 다른 스킬들도 설명과 다르게 빠지거나 실제와 다른 스킬 많이 봄) 버그 투성이고 미완된 얼리 베타 버전인 느낌이지만 꾸준히 개선해 나가는모습이랑 상성관계와 미션이 클리어 성취감에 게임성은 좋다고 봄 그런데 말입니다 인게임내 스킬 상세설명이 실제와 다르다면? 설명보고 스킬 샀는데 적혀있던 그 스킬이 안나간다면?ㅌㅋㅋㅋㅋ 이거 뭐지 사기 아닌가 하겠죠? 예.. 그 사기 오늘 당해보니 당황스러워서 글올립니다 스킬을 설명에 맞게 수정해주시던 스킬에 맞게 설명을 수정하시던 버그 잡는것도 중요한데 그 전에 게임 기본 오브젝트 관리는 좀 해주시죠 외국게임 번역해서 나오는거도 아니고.. 개발자랑 기획자랑 생각하는게 다른건가 싶기도하고 ㅋㅋㅋ 아님 개발자가 수정해놓고 ui담당자한테 말한걸 까먹었다거나 ㅋㅋㅋ 황당하고 짜증났지만 생각해보니 웃긴 게임 리뷰였습니다 더 발전하는 컴투스 되세요 홧 팅 ### 5/5 — very good *2022-05-16, version 1.0.17* GooD good good good ### 5/5 — Game glitch *2022-05-11* This is a fun idle game with lots to do and upgrade. It does glitch where you won’t progress anymore and find bosses sometimes. Also right now I’m stuck on a boss fight where it just shows the animation screen where the boss is introduced. My game stays stuck there so no battle follows. Even after resetting the app and my iPad. 4 stars until it’s fixed Edit. It’s been fixed. Back to 5 Stars. Ggwp **Developer response:** Greetings, Adventurers! Thank you for your kind feedback! We hope you experience awesome game play with Chromatic Souls : AFK Raid! ### 5/5 — Advanced talent bug *2022-05-08* We can upgrade special talents but the UI doesn’t show a stat boost so they seem useless. For example, my Warrior has a lvl 2 special talent to reduce dmg taken but lvl 1 and 2 are both 2%. **Developer response:** We apologize for the inconvenience. We will work harder to improve the game. Please visit HIVE customer support(https://customer-m.withhive.com/ask) and share detailed information about the issue you've encountered. ### 5/5 — UR gear *2022-05-04, version 1.0.15* Can you guys tell me why top players on here already have UR gear?? did they do something most of us missed? Did they throw a lot of money cause if so how since there’s a weekly cap for armour and I’m mad that people have fully UR gear the first week of this launch other then that great afk game ### 5/5 — Error *2022-05-04, version 1.0.15* I get an error. Helper is not skipped It keeps coming up repeatedly --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
