Much fun

👌👍

Response from developer

Thank you very much for your review! Glad you enjoyed Coreshatter!

アップデートに期待!!

オフラインでもオンラインでも目に見えて強くなってる実感があるので面白い。
まだ新しくリリースしたばかりだからやり込み要素はまだまだ。1週間ほどあればそれなりに強くなる。
内容もデザインもシンプルでラン中も楽しめる。スキルの組み合わせも分かりやすくて敵によって効果があるないがあって、使用するスキルが偏らなくて良い。
日本語に翻訳はされてるけど、稀に理解するのが難しい内容も...。vestigesにて、遺物がどうすれば同調できるのか分からず気づいたら同調出来ていたりできなかったり。
運営次第でもっとやり込み要素が増えて、面白くなると思う。期待を込めて。

よく落ちる

しばらく触ってみてバージョン1.9.6では、途中で再始動がかかることなく最後までまわせるようになったので⭐️4に更新。

以下1.9.5時点のレビュー

そこまで負荷がかかってるわけではなさそうなのに、しばしば突然落ちて再始動してロビーに強制的に戻される。
ストレスマッハ。

Fun but issues

Several descriptions don’t even make sense. Feel like there’s a language barrier or something. Audio completely cuts out if you go to another app, and come back. Requires closing the app completely to fix.

Response from developer

Thanks very much for the review! The game is now on 1.12 and most of these issues have long since been resolved and the game has greatly expanded. I hope you give it another go!

Perfect Mix of Passive + Engagement

If you were looking for a chill tap (no button mashing) but visually beautiful and engaging real time game that builds over time this is it.
It’s hard to describe but it’s well worth your time.

FAQ

What is the core gameplay loop of Coreshatter?

Coreshatter is an idle tower defense roguelite. You defend your Core from enemies using Glyphs, draft upgrades, and can 'Shatter' runs to bank resources and gain permanent bonuses for future attempts. Enemies advance on a 'Front' line, and if they reach your Core, the run ends.

Does Coreshatter have offline play?

Yes, Coreshatter features idle and offline earning. Your Cores continue to earn Scrap and Data while you are away, up to a time limit that can be extended. The optional Mainframe Subscription further enhances these offline capabilities.

How does progression work in Coreshatter?

Progression in Coreshatter is achieved through 'Converging,' which resets your run but grants permanent power. This allows you to unlock more Cores, increase Strain levels, and gain access to permanent Axiom rules. Shattering runs also adds up to a 25% bonus to banked Scrap.

What are Vestiges and Gambits in Coreshatter?

Vestiges are endgame relics forged from Fragments, providing passive bonuses. Gambits allow you to stake Axioms on a run; if you clear the target wave and Shatter, you get your Axioms back with a payout, but any other ending loses them.

Does Coreshatter have ads?

Yes, Coreshatter contains advertisements. As a free-to-play game with in-app purchases, advertisements are part of the monetization model.

What is the Mainframe Subscription in Coreshatter?

The Mainframe Subscription is an optional purchase for $4.99 per month. It provides benefits such as daily Flux, longer offline earning limits, an additional Core on Auto-Run, and an extra slot for Research timed upgrades.

How does Coreshatter handle difficulty and replayability?

Coreshatter offers replayability through enemy modifiers that change the best build each run, and a 'Strain' system that adds harder rules with each Convergence. The game also features ranked modes with daily matches and seasonal rewards.

What age rating is Coreshatter?

Coreshatter has an age rating of 12+. This indicates it is suitable for players aged 12 and older, generally due to its strategic gameplay and fantasy combat themes.
