### 3/5 — Dead Game - missing content

*2026-07-13*

After checking the history I realize this is a pretty old game and probably on autopilot. 

First, at least on my version, ad support is off; there’s no way to use ads to keep rings, extend hero life, etc. No big deal, but apparently supposed to be part of the package. 

Second, there is a ton of missing content, at least according to the possible achievements. Again, probably to do with it being unsupported and basically dead. 

Third, the link to facebook in the settings doesn’t go to a game page, it goes to a page describing a trash cleanup in a small British village. 

Verdict: mildly entertaining, but a waste of time and storage space. Plus side os that it’s not loading the phone up with ads.

### 5/5 — Cured my boredom

*2023-09-09*

I was on deaths door due to boredom. Everything was starting to fade to black.  I almost left this world.  

ENTER Heroes!  Oooweeee let me tell you.  I’m playin this for the next bit

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2023-05-23*

Very cute and fun. Love the villagers names.

### 1/5 — Immer das selbe, keine Abwechslung.

*2021-01-01*

Käufe für Gold werden im Vergleich zum verdienst viel zu hoch, das man für Skills Gold zahlen muss ich wirklich total bescheuert, besonders in späteren Dungeons wirds zu heftig (wie anfangs schon erklärt). Je länger man das Spiel spielt, desto weniger spass macht es. Das gehört echt auf kein Smartphone ich lösche den Müll wieder. Eine App für die Tonne!

### 5/5 — Fun

*2019-10-30*

Nice and simple, I like the music

### 1/5 — I’m confused

*2019-10-13*

Ok so I downloaded this game, but I can’t open it, it’s like it downloaded but it’s not opening. I need help?! Can you help?

### 5/5 — Best game ever!

*2019-07-11*

Heroes and doungeons is the best game on the market. The content and graphics are entertaining and it’s fun to play. In conclusion BUY IT NOW.

### 4/5 — Fun, but too many ads

*2019-06-12*

It’s simple, but fun, and a good time killer.  But the amount of ads to repair rings or heal your heroes is too much.  Otherwise this would be a 5-star.

### 3/5 — good start

*2018-06-07*

this is a good start however get redundant after awhile

### 4/5 — Fun, Addictive, Well-Made Game

*2018-01-10*

I used to play this when I was young, and now that I’ve come back to it, it’s still a great game, and I still am highly addicted to it! Keep up the good work Creator- updates would be appreciated
