### 3/5 — DC Heroes & Villians

*2025-11-09, version 2.10.9*

This game is fun but every time it gets updated it crashes. It never loads and it’s really annoying. I wish there were less glitches and bugs and they would add more to the map. They game has been out for a while and they haven’t updated the map. Most people have completed it.

### 3/5 — Tops out then meh

*2025-11-01, version 2.10.9*

Lovely artwork, fun at first, but eventually it’s just grinding and dull.

### 3/5 — Gems being hidden

*2025-10-26, version 2.10.8*

When I play the game the gems gets whited out to where I can’t see them and have to play on auto.

### 3/5 — Good game but….

*2025-10-24, version 2.10.8*

Good game but is a money grab. Once you get hero to certain level can’t really level up traits unless you spend money. Certain items you pretty much have to buy to get the next tier.

### 2/5 — Bug

*2025-10-24, version 2.10.8*

Tiles go white and can’t see what’s on the board?

### 4/5 — bad update

*2025-10-24, version 2.10.8*

love the game but i think it’s the new update making it so that i can’t see any of the matches im gonna make, like all of the tiles are covered by a white square and it’s really annoying, and it was never like that until i updated the game today. love the game apart from that though

### 3/5 — Waited Over a Year/Needs Tweeks

*2025-09-06, version 2.10.4*

***Update*** I feel like there is to much stuff to go after in order to unlock hero’s, as well as I am stuck. My hero’s aren’t strong enough and no matter what I do, I don’t get the right items to upgrade them. I kind of gave up on this game.

To start, I absolutely love this game. Takes a bit of getting used to and trial and error. I saw an ad for this game about a year ago and signed up for early access and info when it will come out. Never got the e-mail. Anyways, the only issue I have with the game is that is constantly crashes on my iPhone 11, but on my 7+ is runs flawless, not sure what that is all about.

### 2/5 — It’s gotten worse. Feels abandoned by the developers

*2025-08-30, version 2.9.10*

This game crashes often. The market place/item store has not worked for the last 3 days or so. So now I can’t purchase any items. I’ve reached out in the chat numerous times and have received no response. It’s become boring and redundant. Ridiculous!

### 4/5 — Update request

*2025-07-10, version 2.9.10*

The difficulty level has gotten to high, the enemies are getting stronger faster than I can afford to upgrade my characters. And it is impossible to get specific characters I want. Also, I noticed the Joker’s nose graphic is looking blurry, think you can fix that?

### 4/5 — I love it

*2025-06-29, version 2.9.10*

I’ve been playing Match 3 games for a while now, and I got into this one a few years ago! I especially love the art style and all the different characters you can pull for. I recently got my favorite, Livewire after a while! If you like Match 3 and are a DC fan, I’d say definitely give it a try!

### 2/5 — Characters

*2025-06-23, version 2.9.10*

I’ve played for months, purchased a bunch of packs and such, only to waste money trying to unlock supergirl smh. Unlocking characters should be simpler.

### 2/5 — Glitchy

*2025-05-12, version 2.9.10*

The Marketplace has disappeared completely. There aren’t enough Metatopes to do ANYTHING. You can only buy 5000/day. You’ll get a measly few as “prizes” but 500 is NOTHING when you need tens of thousands to tier up. Never enough things in the orange squares to upgrade your people, just blue and purple which only work on the lowest level characters. Levels say keep winning to get better prizes but they don’t change AT ALL EVER. Same thing day after day, week after week. I’m done and I suggest you don’t bother either!

### 2/5 — It’s gotten worse. Feels abandoned by the developers

*2025-05-12, version 2.9.10*

This game crashes often. The market place/item store has not worked for the last 3 days or so. So now I can’t purchase any items. I’ve reached out in the chat numerous times and have received no response. Ridiculous!

### 3/5 — fun but

*2025-05-11, version 2.9.10*

cool game and fun, but it has some major bugs. Like my marketplace isn’t opening. Very little updates on the app too. Mobile games die out, so maybe this game is on that path. Either way, fun but now this latest bug is affecting my game.

### 3/5 — Awesome game. Tons of bugs.

*2025-05-11, version 2.9.10*

I love this game. It’s exceptional. I really wish I could just play it. But it’s LOADED with bugs. Some days it won’t load and I can’t play at all. Other times the market place in game is completely blank so I can’t buy the materials I need to level my characters. Other times in assault mode I’ll chose an opponent and the game will freeze and I have to force close the app. I tried contacting support in the support chat and they never respond. Fix your bugs, get humans on your support team, and this would be a five star game!

### 2/5 — Fun but has a lot of bugs

*2025-05-11, version 2.9.10*

Fun game but has issues. It was working fine until the current update which I cannot access the marketplace anymore. Dont waste your time.

### 3/5 — It’s a good game, but seems abandoned

*2025-04-18, version 2.9.7*

I didn’t expect to like this game, it’s actually fun, and just as I was about to spend some money on it, I decided to look them up on social media just to find out the haven’t made a post in half a year, and apparently there’s no new content coming for the game and seem really empty, so I would advise to not spend money on it as it’s probably not gonna be around in a few more months. Such a shame that the devs abandoned the game, it was actually fun!

### 3/5 — Stuck at level 3

*2025-03-20, version 2.9.7*

I’m directed to go to the campaign and can’t go any where else because I guess its apart of the tutorial. But once I click on the campaign I can’t go any further or even go back. Please help.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2025-10-24, version 2.10.8*

If you match more than 3 together, the entire grid will turn white, making it unable to see the pieces. I have to rely on the game hinting to see where I’m supposed to swipe. Had to uninstall, disappointing.

### 1/5 — Money hungry

*2025-10-02, version 2.10.4*

For for about an hour until you quickly realise how much money the game tries to force you to spend. Constant pop ups asking you to buy packs are extremely annoying. You also hit a block on the campaign making it impossible to level up characters and process without spending money. Deleted

### 1/5 — Rookies mission

*2025-06-19, version 2.9.10*

Was greatly disappointed I could not play the final mission. Tried and tried, and it wouldn’t let me.

### 1/5 — Day two

*2025-02-25, version 2.9.3*

Second day owning this and server crashes,to rub it in the same screen reminds me to do daily challenges,gonna erase

### 1/5 — Bug no modo Versus

*2025-02-03*

Estou tentando jogar mas, agora que liberei o modo versus, meu jogo trava e não me deixa fazer mais nada. Estou presa no “tutorial” para entrar no modo versus mas quando clico nele, pedem para inserir meu id de jogador e depois tudo para. Já tentei reinstalar o jogo, mas nada adianta. É uma pena, pois estava me divertindo jogando, mas não consigo fazer mais nada por causa desse bug.

### 1/5 — No help

*2025-02-03, version 2.9.3*

The games rank system hasn’t been working for almost 3 weeks now. There’s no sense of urgency just constantly trying to just is to pay $$ for a game not functioning properly

### 1/5 — Could be great.

*2025-02-01, version 2.9.3*

So inconsistent with responsiveness it’s not even funny. Fix the game make it playable.

### 1/5 — Freezes

*2025-01-31, version 2.9.3*

Game got stuck and didn’t accept any touch feedback as soon as “assault mode” was unlocked.

### 1/5 — NOT IMPRESSED!

*2025-01-31, version 2.9.3*

THIS GAME COULD BE A MILLION TIMES BETTER IF ALL CUTSCENES WERE VOICED AND IF THE DIFFICULTY OF ENEMIES WERE WEAKER IN AREA 4 AND THERE ARE PROBABLY SOME OTHER REASONS WHY I RATED THIS ONE STAR ALSO I AM NOT THE BIGGEST DC COMIC FAN I AM MORE OF A MARVEL COMIC FAN YOU SHOULD MAKE A MARVEL COMIC GAME THAT IS LIKE THIS BUT BETTER!

### 1/5 — Frozen!

*2025-01-28, version 2.9.3*

Unlocked assault and cannot go further. Was good up until then…

### 5/5 — Ideas to improve the game

*2025-08-07, version 2.9.10*

It cool game love playing it would like to see a dc multi versus come in it and change different raid bosses to different dc people you got to fight

### 5/5 — good match-3 option

*2025-07-27, version 2.9.10*

I have reached a paywall here, and things have started getting repetitive, but there was plenty of match-3 gameplay before that.  I have been able to recruit plenty of characters, and go through most of the main plot f2p.  The graphics are fine for this type of game.  This game was very stable for me.  A little more variety in guild opponents would be nice.

### 5/5 — Add more updates and improvements for my support please

*2025-07-19, version 2.9.10*
