### 4/5 — Muitas micro transações

*2026-07-18*

Tudo em dólar

**Developer response:** Darkest AFK contém compras dentro do jogo. Por favor, entre em contato com nosso serviço de suporte pelo email support@alicegamesfze.com caso esteja enfrentando problemas técnicos relacionados aos preços.

### 4/5 — Amélioration

*2026-07-16*

Serait il possible de rajouter une option que les héros qui meurt ne puisse être ressuscité cela pimenterai le jeu de manière et être plus stratégique. Merci

**Developer response:** Merci pour cette idée. Cependant, cette fonctionnalité rendrait certains soigneurs inutiles en combat, puisque la résurrection est l'une de leurs compétences les plus puissantes. Cela entraînerait un déséquilibre des héros, donc nous réfléchissons à d'autres moyens pour rendre les combats plus stratégiques.

### 5/5 — I missed it too much

*2026-07-09, version 1.129*

I will admit that this game is one of the better idle games on the App Store due to the offline resource gain actually helping you progress. There is a high emphasis on hero and spell strategy. It feels daunting at first with the random hazards mixed in, but it never feels unfair. Getting heroes is relatively easy and merging duplicates gives a significant power boost to the hero. The best part is the Darkest Dungeon vibe they’ve got here. Graphics, the main and individual hero story, and the difficulty show that the devs have the right idea in mind. I’m glad I came back and fully recommend it.

### 1/5 — Help

*2026-07-04*

Удалял игру, вернулся. Теперь не могу восстановить прогресс, как так? Столько времени было потрачено впустую. (Писал в поддержку, проигнорировали)
В поддержке видать один человек сидит и отвечает только тут. Не советую

**Developer response:** Мы ответили на все обращения, которые касались восстановления прогресса. Пожалуйста, обратитесь в нашу службу поддержки через электронную почту **support@alicegames.com**, мы поможем решить проблему 🤗

### 1/5 — Аааа

*2026-07-01*

После обновления игра началась с начала. Написал в поддержку, получил ответ с информацией по восстановлению. Не помогло.

**Developer response:** Благодарим вас за отзыв. Мы ответили на все сообщения, связанные с потерей прогресса. Если инструкции по восстановлению прежнего аккаунта вам не помогли, пожалуйста, обратитесь в службу поддержки снова. Мы попробуем другие способы восстановления прогресса 🤗

### 1/5 — No balancing

*2026-07-01, version 1.127*

This game has a problem with letting the player progress. The combat balancing is nonexistent and most encounters are mostly frustrating. It’s an obvious ripoff of Darkest Dungeon by people that have no idea why that game was fun. After failing a single encounter three times for no reason, I’m uninstalling and never returning.

### 1/5 — Beware, don’t download

*2026-06-30, version 1.127*

I lost my account due to an app update a month ago and despite communication with the support devs they have failed to restore my account, compensate me or refund the money I have spent on the game, and have also stopped responding to my emails. Don’t waste your time, the developers are unethical.

### 5/5 — Круть

*2026-06-29*

Супер 👍

**Developer response:** Благодарим за отзыв. Мы рады слышать, что вам нравится игра 🤗

### 1/5 — Не рекомендую

*2026-06-22*

Обнулился игровой прогресс, поддержка мертвая. Три года в игре, несколько тысяч доната в итоге просто игнор. Не тратьте время.

**Developer response:** Если что-то пошло не так с прогрессом, это можно исправить. Напиши на **support@alicegames.com** с игровым ID, и мы всё вернём.

### 1/5 — Полный восторг

*2026-06-18*

Это просто шедеврально, после обновления весь прогресс слетел , при попытках вернуть все как было происходит восстановление но на 80% все слетает и запрещает пробовать на 7 часов, не советую игру , ведь в какой-то из дней она вас пнет под жопу

**Developer response:** Напиши пожалуйста на **support@alicegames.com** с игровым ID, постараемся всё вернуть.
