### 1/5 — Update

*2024-07-12*

I’ve been waiting months for an update. This game can be fun but the quest are too short and there are no new levels so the game is boring.

### 4/5 — are there other games like this one?

*2024-03-22*

i really love the concept of the game and ive only found two others besides this one! this one is definitely the best one but if there if amy more aoit there what would the category even be called?!

### 3/5 — Good game

*2024-02-29*

But it keeps shutting down; I will have to delete and reinstall but not sure it will work.

Maybe time for an update?  Just a thought.

### 1/5 — Joshua

*2023-10-20*

Add Halloween events and 83673658 events and more updates

### 3/5 — Need content

*2023-07-27*

Fun concept but I've run through all the levels. Even after updates you may only get 1 more area. They really need to release a lot of new content because there is very little right now.

### 2/5 — Geez

*2023-06-10*

Only 16 floors

### 5/5 — Great start

*2023-06-09*

Love the concept. Well done. It will be interesting to see how it scales up. Keep more content coming.

### 1/5 — Only 16 levels

*2023-06-01*

Game is not complete. Don’t waste your time until it has a large update

### 2/5 — It was fine, but the game is incomplete.

*2023-05-29*

Game was fine even though it’s literally a copy of Gold and Goblins. Giving it 2-stars because the game is incomplete so I uninstalled it. And no, I won’t download again.

### 1/5 — Clone of Gold and Goblins without the content

*2023-05-25*

Simple copy of a better game.  Don’t bother with this one: there are very few levels and no real content or balance
