### 2/5 — Almost enjoy the game

*2026-07-19, version 1.4.1*

The gameplay is really great and I love all the different weapons and play styles given.

My issues start with how much of the good loot is so infrequently given, it is not even effectively in the game.
Then there are many mobs whom the hero cannot even damage because they are supposed to be a high defense mob, but there are glitches where they will have the animation as if they have been hit but then not get hit so the mob is effectively immortal until you buy pikemen which are so slow, the enemy will wipe your units before the pikemen get there.
Then you get to the point of having to grind till your fingerprints wear off if you want to level up more than just a few units and casually buy better gear.

There are more good things but there are more bad things too, and it would be an actually fun game if, in the end, even the normal difficulty mode didn’t have things like these making it harder than the first heroes v castles hardest levels.
