It has an easy layout an quite a lot of content. I have however found one thing that has always nagged me about it. The lack of conversation. Most conversation does not happen unless that person or people are on when you are. The text you write in chat or guild chat goes away instantly so even sending private messages does not work. This also makes it hard to figure out some guild things as well. Over all though, if you are looking for a decent game this one is worth a try. ### 3/5 — Ok but ….. *2021-11-18, version 1.3* Ok game I do like it but as u start to progress your stuck you feel your being penalized for being a free player u watch others from the side lines get further an more powerful cause they pay their way to the top.better characters pay, get better items to be stronger pay,star up your characters pay,I’m getting no where in arena or point race why cause I’m a free player.I’m close to just deleting this game .So if u want to struggle an get no where an watch from the side lines then this is the game for u good luck new players. ### 2/5 — Not a fair game at all *2021-11-01, version 1.2* The game is fun until the tournament or the arena my cp level be way higher then other people cp level and they still beat me so for that it’s a two star for me ### 3/5 — Good Start *2021-09-14, version 1.2* I’m not an expert at Idle games, but so far it seems pretty good. I do have a few nitpicks though; 1. Story wise I have no idea what’s going on, aside from text errors and mistranslations it’s alright. It’s hard to understand since it moves so fast. 2. The chat system is a mess. The notifications clog up the chat messages, which makes it hard to read. As well as that, it seems like there is no censoring, so I’d hope that’d get patched on. Purchases also get announced through it, which I kind of disagree with since not all players want to see or have their purchases announced on their server. 3. The game favors pay to win players over free to play, which isn’t uncommon. Although I’m currently free to play in this game, as I’ve just started, I feel as if even the smallest purchase would boost me ahead of free players. The bonuses are fine, although it seems free players have a harder time with obtaining bonuses. It would be nice to have events or make it be a little easier for free players to obtain rewards to help them a bit. 4. The models don’t always add up with their stock art, although it’s not necessarily all over the place, I’ve noticed some characters looking completely different from their icon, which isn’t too much of a big deal. I don’t have too much of a problem with it, but when the skin color is off it might not sit well with a few players. 5. The discord is a mess of its own, although I don’t think an App Store review is appropriate to discuss it. 6. I’d like it if the game had a little more details or tutorials regarding how to play. I’m not “bad,” but I’m not good other since I have no idea what’s going on half the time. It’d be nice to have the app explain it a little more from time to time. 7. The notifications. It would be nice so whenever you click on something, it’d disappear, regardless or whether you’ve upgraded the item it wants you to or not. It’s a little annoying, but not that major though. And that’s my overly long review. I’ll change it later on as the game updates. I’m excited to see how the game turns out, it’s pretty fun so far and I’m definitely enjoying it!! Thank you. :D ### 1/5 — Broken *2021-09-10, version 1.2* Patcher is broken, made it to 6% finally after 30+ minutes. Complete garbage launch 😂 This game is a 100% rip off of pokeelf 😂 every map every action all a exact copy minus the characters are drawn different 😂😂😂 Be original you scam artists 😂 ### 1/5 — Mediocre at best *2021-09-10, version 1.2* Gameplay: 2/5 Worldbuilding: 4/5 Storyline: 3/5 Dialogues: 0/5 (They don’t know basic grammar or how to write complete sentences. A toddler could do better) Music and Sound: 3/5 Overall game: 2/5 If they add more and improve gameplay while also fixing their HORRIBLE grammar and sentence structure, then the game will be better and I’ll edit my review to be more positive So the game is quite bad. Half of the time the game doesn’t reset the server when it says it would, its way to hard to progress, and worse some of the devs and beta testers are incredibly bad people. A payed bug finder and game tester literally threatened to ruin my life just because I pointed out they messed up in something they said. ### 2/5 — Uninspiring; Nothing New *2021-09-08, version 1.2* Literally a cheap, cheap Dragalia Lost. At least they could have tried a little more with the story. ### 1/5 — Bad *2021-09-08, version 1.2* Cant update game ### 1/5 — Why is it take so long to download? *2021-09-08, version 1.2* I am using WiFi and took me 2 hours to get to 40% on the start up patch download please fix ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2021-09-08, version 1.2* Can’t even get past the patch package download. Was excited for this game, go to play and typical “have to download patches” ok cool, except it’s the slowest download of MB ever and doesn’t even get past a certain percent. ### 2/5 — Download *2021-09-08, version 1.2* 1 hr for 10% ### 1/5 — Pre-Ordered for nothing! *2021-09-08, version 1.2* Pre order on game and it download but doesn’t open past the first loading screen. Waste of time waiting for nothing. If I could zero star I would. Not a great start for the game. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2021-09-08, version 1.2* Can’t even load the patches, doesent even go up 1 percent can’t load anything besides the first screen if I could give it a 0 I would, this is my first ever review on a game I pre ordered for it just to not lose, instant delete. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Non existent support *2022-04-04, version 1.3* I wanna like the game but support doesnt exist. They won’t answer a simple question i sent in-game and on their FB page. That’s a bad sign when the support ignores you. Two thumbs down! ### 1/5 — Bored after awhile and pay to win *2021-12-08, version 1.3* The game is fun from the first place but getting bored after, the purchases are scams, they don’t worth spending money ### 1/5 — Unplayable *2021-12-01, version 1.3* Deleted after 1 day. Game became unplayable with infinite loading times whenever you wanna do anything. ### 1/5 — I want 2 play a game *2021-10-27, version 1.2* Not watch it play by it’s self / Just plain dumb / Delete ### 1/5 — Boring *2021-10-06, version 1.2* This game is boring. There is no strategy to it. The only interaction in the game is to click on what ever dungeons there are and quick play through it. You are locked behind a paywall for progression. It could take weeks to get gold needed to upgrade one hero. I’m turn weeks to get past a wall. Guilds are the worst feature. Chats don’t save in guild chat so it’s hard to bond with members. Can’t really coordinate anything. If you are looking for a game where you connect to your hero then this is not it. ### 1/5 — It’s boring *2021-09-27, version 1.2* It’s only two codes. There nothing else more than two. It’s quite boring to long time and get waiting for new codes. There nothing! I’m out and one star. This is stupid game. ### 1/5 — No. *2021-09-25, version 1.2* Deleted this game. Just no! 👋🏾 ### 1/5 — HEAVY P2W *2021-09-15, version 1.2* If you want to be even in top 10, be ready to drop bank. Especially if you want SSS+ heroes, the only way to get it is to spend hundreds of dollars. ### 1/5 — Terrible heavy p2w *2021-09-12, version 1.2* I get these games are p2w, I usually will spend. But not a chance in this one. The fact I hit a wall in about 20-30 minutes of launch and it would take about 12-15 hours of idling to level up was ridiculous. Not paying to level faster. Also I made enough diamonds for ONE 10x summon, most games at the start, even with 10x summons you’ll get a lot of summons in early. This game hands out diamonds at a very very slow rate. Because of that I uninstalled and will look for another place to be a baby whale. ### 1/5 — Copycat game *2021-09-12, version 1.2* This game lifts assets from Dragalia Lost and copied the look and feel too closely. It will get shut down pretty quick. I'm surprised it's been up this long. Their ads literally have Euden in them ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Pretty good game so far! *2021-09-09, version 1.2* Very interesting and different, I really like the graphics. I hope to play for a long time. ### 5/5 — good game *2021-09-08, version 1.2* very good so far ### 5/5 — Serious Well *2021-09-08, version 1.2* This game has a good potential and a future if the devs are serious about it. Well done! ### 5/5 — Fun game *2021-09-08, version 1.2* I work full time so when I get a chance I can hop on play and bam rewards waiting easy upgrades great game play. There it is! It's really awesome. ### 5/5 — Great *2021-09-08, version 1.2* Great fun game , no need to purchase anything it does help but you don’t need it. ### 5/5 — Love it *2021-09-08, version 1.2* The fact that the game does not force ads to me, it's really appreciated. Love, love it! ### 5/5 — Rewards to play *2021-09-08, version 1.2* It feels rewarding to play while also not feeling addictive or that I need to spend money to advance in the game ### 5/5 — Absolutely AMAZING *2021-09-08, version 1.2* The wide variety of things you can do, are absolutely amazing. The graphics are amazing, gameplay is awesome. I really like this game, I can’t wait for it to grow, and to see what the future holds!! ### 5/5 — Download issues *2021-09-08, version 1.2* It’s having trouble downloading the first patch installation it gets to 22 mb then stops and I’ve waited for 15 mins now and it hasn’t moved not that big of an issue for me but I have high hopes for the game and it’s are is fantastic just from the opening hope this issue gets solved ### 5/5 — Why is it taking so long to download *2021-09-08, version 1.2* .Help --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
