great but please make stuff cheaper

I know you guys need money from ads and locking stuff behind ads but I think you should make music cheaper because I think 500 is a bit much without paying. I think that even 200 would be good, please see this.

Poor "randomization" and odds stacking

Took me 55 tries with rabbit foot to get divine gear (should have had around 4-5) - this happens constantly whether it's gear, skill chests, or mystic cabin items.

"Randomization" needs fixing, or stated odds should reflect the true hidden odds and parameters.

Not getting subscription benefits or adequate support.

I paid for the subscription but am not getting the benefits, despite reinstalling, rebooting, etc. I also canโ€™t connect support or report a bug without going to an external website, creating an account, and posting on a community forum โ€” not contacting the support team directly or submitting a ticket.

Great Focus Game; Terrible Whitelist

This app is rare in that it feels like effort was put into this being a game with utility, rather than many other focus apps which feel like slightly gamified utilities. I love that there are multiple progression systems to work towards.

The one thing that most other apps have over Focus Quest is integration into Apples Screen Time feature for making a working whitelist system for strict mode. This apps unlimited whitelist system feels like an obsolete workaround that just never got updated. It actually really cripples the functionality for me, since I like to do flashcards on my phone, but unlimited whitelisting makes the distraction dissuading functionality of this game pretty much null. I would really like to see this updated to take advantage of Screen Time to make actual whitelists for strict mode, like so many other apps do.

AMAZING

Im on the high end of adhd and autism, i appear normal and have high intelligence, i have downloaded and reviewed 2 other games that are similar to this, yet no i never agree with subcriptions that this and the others have, id say this is the cheapest, BUT what i AM shocked to find is that after the intro and the screen that shows the subscription, i believe there is NO way to access it again after(they should still have it) but to me this is undeniable evidence this app doesnt just want money, it WANTS to help you, compared to others that locks HUGELY helpful features behind a pay wall, this app doesnt, this app (from the first minutes ive played it) appears to be fun and engaging, not quick, not underworked, its been made with love, this app is cute and quirky which means its good for kids, its in depth side means its useful for older kids too, maintaining the competitive edge of having a warrior better then others and by keeping focus doing so, so, for my conclusion, to parents and carers, i ADVISE this app, it is perfect even without a subscription, tho you may want that, id suggest this app over others as i seems to be most effective at retaining the brain and time of someone with adhd or other needs that suffer badly.
