### 3/5 — New update

*2026-08-09, version 0.7.2*

I have reached level 24 which shows maxed and I am wondering when are they launching more level and the game is absolutely phenomenal

### 3/5 — Update Bugs

*2026-07-22, version 0.7.2*

I had finished opening the gate prior to the update, but no longer have the gate bonuses after updating.

Also, the second area in the insect area just says “not enough belly space”, even when empty with 172k capacity.

I enjoy playing this in my off time, please fix and I’ll update my review.

### 3/5 — Really fun but Needs work

*2026-06-26, version 0.6.3*

Really fun game, definitely some glitch’s. One glitch causes your health to drop after a boss then adds a percentage to your total health. My current health is 1.8 billion. Another glitch causes a “snake boss” you are supposed to defeat to spawn outside the playable area. Once you get to level 20 you are kindof done, there is no way I have found to progress to lvl 25 to unlock the other areas. Other than grinding for weeks. The challenges that help with xp just stop. Really like the game though. Just seems like the developers never played it themselves.

### 3/5 — Ist okay

*2026-06-19*

Macht Spaß aber es gibt einen zu großen Abstand zwischen lvl 20 - 22 sowie fehlende Möglichkeiten

### 2/5 — Meh…

*2026-06-14, version 0.6.3*

I do like the game. It’s kind of slow because respawns are more than an hour sometimes. It seems like this is the only game they have that they’re actively working on still. Honestly, it would be kind of cool if they’d still work on the other games and actually check out the fact that none of them are working.

### 2/5 — Игра обрезана

*2026-06-12*

Достигнув 22 уровня контента больше нет.

### 3/5 — 進めない

*2026-06-11*

ゲートを開けるためのクエモブが倒せない所に居てどうにもならない

### 2/5 — review

*2026-06-01, version 0.6.3*

it was fun but the thing that killed the game for me was the constant missing your character does.

### 2/5 — Broken

*2026-05-27, version 0.6.3*

This game is not too bad. It’s similar to quite a few others so it’s nothing new either. What is new as 90% of the ads are broken but they’re not broken at the start. They just don’t end they just sit there and you don’t get your money, so you watched 2 to 5 minutes of ads and realise this thing has frozen again and it’s not one every 10. It’s literally 2 to 3/ out of 5 that freeze. It is annoying. It is so so painfully annoying.

### 3/5 — Time locked progression

*2026-05-12, version 0.6.3*

The game itself is pretty good with a cool tremors inspired setup, but unfortunately has a heavy time lock on enemies respawning. This in turn makes grinding for new gear slow to the point of a crawl and makes you reach a soft cap wall in your play, until enough real world time has passed. Further, this game is in no way an idle game, as you have to manually do everything, no offline progression, and as far as I’ve found, no resource generators.
Gear is under powered meaning you have to grind a multitude before noticing any true benefit. The cost of your stats expands exponentially faster than both your stats, enemy respawn, and resource drops can keep up with.

If you plan on playing at 5-10 minute increments a day or every few hours, you’ll have no problem. If you you want something that you can truly pass your time with and play for any extended periods, I would highly suggest playing “devour idle slime rpg” by the same developer for a more balanced grind and time sink. Other games that might be good for you are Dragonfist limitless and other various ARPG’s.

### 1/5 — Need a update vip room is broke

*2026-08-02, version 0.7.2*

Plz fix it

### 1/5 — Time lock mobs makes game unplayable

*2026-07-26, version 0.7.2*

This would be one of my favorites, but the respawn timers make the game unplayable. At the first zone or two, there are maybe eight mob groups of three to five mobs. A couple “elite” type single mobs, and a boss type character. You get one or two clears before multiple-hour long respawn locks are triggered. Why? I like the game enough after having played very little that I would pay for it…if the game basically didn’t parent lock me out of playing after thirty or so minutes. Weird choice.

### 1/5 — Кристаллы

*2026-06-21*

Копил очень долго кристаллы , купил две по 40 кристаллы , которые дают 386 красной штуки и в итоге мне ничего не пришло , после такого решил удалить игру , баги в игре существуют , скачивать НЕ РЕКОМЕНДУЮ!

### 1/5 — Fix the quest

*2026-06-14*

Pls fix the worm quest and Don't delete my review again!
Fix it and i give 5 stars

### 1/5 — 途中

*2026-06-08*

途中までしか出来てないならリリースしないでください

### 1/5 — Very cool progressive game

*2026-05-23, version 0.6.3*

The “optional” ads are like 30 second ads for like 10mins worth of gameplay, and the revenue of the ad goes up the more you upgrade so farming for points is so useless and you’d be stupid not to watch the ad instead, which makes this game an ad revenue generator instead of devs who wanted to put out a good game. Such a shame.

Anyways, here’s to hoping one of these games exist where optional ads aren’t as incentivized every few minutes. Worse than cable.

### 1/5 — ジェム課金したが…

*2026-05-23*

Gem packsにてジェム課金後、動画閲覧の後にゴールドを増やしたくジェムを使ったけど、ジェムが減るばかりでゴールドが反映されない。

アプリ内のトラブルなのか、詐欺なのか分からないけど返金して欲しい。

### 1/5 — It needs more work

*2026-05-20, version 0.6.3*

The game is fun, but it simply needs more work. It took me only 3 days to get to level 20 without any money and there is simply nothing to do. The level 20 location that unlocks was a small 10 x10 cell with only one enemy in it and no upgrade building like the other sections of the map had. Due to a bug or poor map design I also do not have access to section of the map that requires 5 stones because the first level of enemies that spawn after talking to one of the quest worm spawns in the level 25 zone instead of the zone the worm is found in. I forgot what the level requirement was to access the particular worm but it was in the same section of the map where you encounter that big robot that drops 8 plasma. I am now forced to kill the level 20 enemy approximately 495 times in hope of getting to level 22 and unlocking another location but from from what I can see of section 22 it is a giant room with no signs of enemies.

Update: I was able to defeat the enemies that wrongful spawn inside the lv 25 zone. It took 22.6 range which is lv 86 attack radius, a lv 21 mythical fang and every single equipment with range as a passive at max which takes about 100 or so copies. To show for it a 64% increase to gold which is the last stone I decided to slot and whatever else is behind this stone door. As I was supposed to be able to do this about 3 levels ago I doubt anything to help me level up will be inside but we will have to see in 2 hr time. 
Update: went inside the stone door and there’s two different enemies. One are a set of gold pigs which give about 1b total exp and a decent amount of gold not that upgrading matters at this point. The second type is a single purple enemy that is very confusing as to why it is in this location as it gives about 1m exp and a very small amount of gold. Both sets of enemies take 12 hr to respawn so not much has changed in my quest to get to level 22 and level 25. I am now 191b exp away from finally reaching lv 22. At this rate lv 25 will require probably 100 trillion exp and nothing but what I find within the lv 22 zone will effect that amount lets hope there is more then a single enemy an an upgrade building to reduce the respawn time of the enemies within the zone.

Update: Finally lv. 22 and it’s clear the developer stopped working on the game before releasing it. There is literally nothing in the new location. No boundary textures, no upgrade build, not even an enemy. Only new thing is an unfinished/unimplemented heat mechanic that shows a flame symbol that stays at 0 the whole time I tried exploring the new map section. This game mechanic is stolen from that Alien Invasion game and should not even be in this game seeing we only get to be in this desert section of the map for two levels before reaching lv. 25 and unlocking a whole new section that has completely different environments. It now costs 2.5T exp to get to lv. 23 and we are somehow expected to get to lv. 25 but I have a feeling that location too will be empty and if the dev did decide to patch up zone 22 the dumb heat mechanic will just be a poor attempt at prolonging how long we can play to progress because the developer stopped working is to lazy to play test their own game to gage what the players stats look like this far into the game, so rather then attempting to balance anything they are choosing to ditch the whole system for something else. 

Total bugs: 5
1) Patch the spawn location of zone 6 shard enemies to actually spawn inside of zone 6 instead of zone 12. 
2) If you obtain a duplicate of the shell you have equipped your hp drops to whatever health upgrade level is instead of gaining the new hp value right away. This leads to a lot of unnecessary deaths, and can cause player confusion as they don’t understand why they died when they had millions or even billions of hp then dropped to only 100,000 in just one second.
3) The Doc HP regen effect simply doesn’t work outside side of the zone even when you have the buildings global influence at 50% or 100%.
4) The mythical poison shell’s bonus for Lv. 28 reads, + 24 Poison on crit. I’m guessing that is a typo seeing as the rare poison shell gives +45k poison on crit. Not that it matters because after a point injury, on hit, and on crit effects becomes useless because the enemies evade increased every zone to the point of having only a 5% chance to hit making it mandatory to use the poison tale’s effects of +x poison on battle start and +Y poison/sec effects.
5) Finish implementing the lv. 22 section of the map and work on balancing the game.

### 2/5 — Nicht fertig programmiert

*2026-07-14*

Eigentlich ganz lustiger Zeitvertreib, aber ab Level 22 ist Schluss. Tor auf… nichts drin

### 2/5 — Didn’t give me my purchase

*2026-07-05, version 0.6.3*

Great game except I paid money for diamond, which I did get but when I bought 1.4 plasma for 200 diamonds the game to my diamonds but didn’t give me my plasma.  Please fix this and give me my stuff.  I will not spent another cent if this isn’t fix.  Good day 😤

### 5/5 — Update

*2026-07-12*

Обнову давай, уже 2 месяца прошло

### 5/5 — First of I love this game have been playing it non stop since I’ve got it

*2026-06-26, version 0.6.3*

Only issue is now I’m level 20 and have completed all the challenges that give you ex it’s pretty much hard capped as getting that much xp solely from killing the enemies isn’t enough also the next rooms open at level 25 but 5 levels at this level with no other xp boosts it’s kinda made me feel like I’ve finished the game as there’s nothing more to unlock unless I kill enemies every day for the next couple months have also spent money on this game as I love it thank you.

### 5/5 — 広告ゲームです

*2026-06-06*

こんな方に向いています
・ゲーム内の広告を見るのが好き
・ゲームよりも広告を見たい
・広告を見ないと禁断症状が出てしまう

地道にポチポチとプレイするより広告を見続けた方がすぐに強くなれます。映画やドラマ、スポーツの観賞しながら広告を見るプレイスタイルをおすすめします。

### 5/5 — Fun Little Game

*2026-05-22, version 0.6.3*

Fun little game with no annoying ads. Ads are optional to increase resources, the way adds should be in games OPTIONAL

### 4/5 — После обновы все равно гоюк

*2026-07-22*

В 10 зоне все время пишет разгрузитесь и не дает убивать монстров, хотя объем живота 248к

### 4/5 — Nett aber hat bugs

*2026-07-03*

Macht spaß aber jetzt komme ich mit Level 21 nicht weiter. Das wird wohl daran liegen dass ich die letzten Snake quests nicht erfüllen kann da die Hunde im lvl 25 Gebiet gespawnt sind. Zusätzlich kommt nun hinzu das ich diese wohl nun auch als normale Quest habe sodass es da auch nicht mehr weitergeht da die Gegner so gut wie keine EP geben. Da gibts noch ein paar mehr Bugs die nicht so sehr ins Gewicht fallen aber will den Text auch nicht zu lang machen. Sollten diese behoben werden gibts nen Stern mehr.

### 4/5 — Good game if you have the time

*2026-06-25, version 0.6.3*

This game is pretty standard for games for like this, ads don’t pop up automatically to interrupt gameplay though which is a major plus for me. My one complaint is no real way to compare the stats of equipment so it’s trial and error to test if you’ve upgraded a more common piece of equipment so that the stat increase is better until you can upgrade a rarer piece.

### 4/5 — Глюк

*2026-06-09*

Исправьте Глюк с 25 зоной, я пока до нее доберусь уже не актуальны будут золотые свиньи за воротами

### 4/5 — Видимо баг. В локации противников нужных для квеста выкинуло за предел локации за закрытыми воротами

*2026-06-03*

Для попадания в локацию для выполнения квеста нужен 25 лвл. У меня сейчас 17 и все возможные действия выполнены. Набивать 8 лвл только что бы добраться до противников странно.

### 4/5 — Events, skins, ?

*2026-05-24*

It’s good, but don’t you want to ad events or something.
