### 2/5 — 毎日やってるけど、ログイン出来ない？

*2026-05-22*

まぁよくあるタイプのゲームだとは思いますが、ちと暇な時にやるにはちょうどいいです。
特筆すべき点は無いですけど、お気に入りのキャラをメインにして遊ぶのも面白いかもしれませんね🤔
たまにアプリ起動時が不安定なので、−1です

2026/5/2追記
丸二日ログイン出来ず、公式から何も報せが無いのは流石にどうかと…
更に星−1です😠

2026/5/7追記
昨日やっと入れるようになったと思ったら、今日はダメ…
公式からも何もなく…
アプデもなく…
サ終ですか？
もう更に星-1です😡

2026/5/8追記
やっと遊べるようになりました😮‍💨
それにしても、何の発表もアプデもないし、イベントの補填も無し！
運営に不安が募ります

2026/5/23追記
まーた、サーバー接続出来なくて入れません😡
流石に頻度が高過ぎるし、公式は黙ったままなので、静かにサ終するんでしょうね…

### 3/5 — Game Seems Like It's Dying

*2025-12-12, version 1.0.47*

Every update for the past months have been for character, skin, and event reruns so it's basically a cycle of the same few things over and over.

There have been no new character additions and a second anniversary celebration this year was non-existent. Their Discord is eerily silent as well save for update announcements.

Games like Doomsday Vanguard are a dime a dozen these days. It may be better off looking for one that receives regular updates + active developer & community.

### 5/5 — 好玩

*2025-10-04, version 1.0.46*

不花錢留鑽石跟抽獎卷也可以慢慢換到自己心儀的角色，一般S角色摩根很好用且公會每週可兌換20片容易收集滿建議可以先用，iOS邀請碼：eZLXzLyIwqYg歡迎一起養成～～

### 3/5 — おそらく面白いはずなのだが、

*2025-07-30, version 1.0.44*

基本ヴァンサバライクなゲームで可愛いキャラで敵を薙ぎ倒していく感じ。
たしかに面白いのかもしれないが、いかんせん無気で攻撃しているときの音がしょぼい。
そのせいなのか爽快感がない。

ゲーム性は面白いとおもう。

### 1/5 — Not work

*2025-07-29, version 1.0.44*

After 6 month of waiting it’s not working

### 5/5 — code

*2025-07-17, version 1.0.44*

### 5/5 — ☆1つつけてる方のレビュー

*2025-04-24*

参考にはならないので無視で良いと思います。
確かにちょくちょくクラッシュやプレイ中の処理落ちはあります。装備の合成の仕様の説明不足な事に文句を書いている方もいますが、難しくも何とも無いです。単にオツムが弱いだけかと。
広告嫌なら広告免除だけ買えば良いし、後は無課金でもコツコツやればガチャも引けますし、SPキャラも育成できる様に配慮してくれているゲームです。課金時にエラーが出た時も誠実に対応してくれました。内容は他の人も載せているので省略します。
私は楽しませてもらってます。クラッシュや処理落ちは出来れば何とかしてほしいですが。
PS     不平不満ではなくてゲームの内容をレビューして下さい。
機種が〜とか自分の環境を他責して書き込むのやめて。
見苦しいし、鬱陶しい。

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-04-21, version 1.0.42*

Games so good lol love it download now

### 5/5 — Hỏi

*2025-04-18, version 1.0.42*

Rồi cái kho đồ nằm ở đâu vậy

### 2/5 — ……………

*2025-02-09*

I think I deleted this app a year ago and never had it for a year.
