Crafting feels irrelevant with how little recipes we get. The forge feels important because it gets a whole tab and I find myself holding onto all these ingredients because I might be able to use them to craft something but it ends up just cluttering my inventory. Game has a lot of potential, I beat the first game and I hope a third one is in the making ### 3/5 — Bugs *2025-06-05, version 1.0950* Tiene bugs de borrar el progreso cuando quierws aprender un poder o no guarda el avanze es el único detalle Porfavor dar solución ### 5/5 — Fun *2025-05-08, version 1.0950* Very fun I will be playing this game for a long time ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2025-05-05, version 1.0950* Top quality game a perfect example of what developers should be like ### 2/5 — Death By 1,000 Ads *2025-04-27, version 1.0950* The game is very enjoyable, but 30 sec ads per 2-3 minutes of gameplay seriously degrades an otherwise pleasant experience. Including a cash shop on top of constant ads is crazy. ### 3/5 — Help *2025-04-26, version 1.0950* Need to delete my account. ### 4/5 — Simple cool *2025-04-10, version 1.0950* Old school goodness with little ads. Not a bunch of strange unrelated tasks . Npc foolishness kept to a minimum ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — An excessive abundance of video ads *2026-07-13, version 1.0953* How in the world does this have raving reviews? It's beyond simplistic, which is okay, because it's kind of a fun little grind, and yet there are ads after every other battle. It's insane. Video ads. It's unskippable and just absurd and awful, and never, never again. ### 1/5 — Lame, skip *2026-05-09, version 1.0953* Much worse, boring clone of "swords & sandals". Turn based combat taken to new levels of uninteresting predictability ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-08-31, version 1.0952* Super pay to win, waste of time ### 1/5 — Bugged and abandoned *2025-06-24, version 1.0950* Game is bugged most functions dont work and devs dont care ### 1/5 — lies *2025-05-23, version 1.0950* says any purchase with gems removes ads. it did not do that also got soft locked ### 1/5 — Слишком много рекламы *2025-05-10, version 1.0950* Невозможно играть от обилия рекламы.
