The arena does have a problem. *2026-05-01, version 2.22.6* Good game, I’ve played it since it came out. I’ve had to reset a few times just because I was away for soooo long between downloads but I never mind resetting it’s always fun. This is a fun easy to understand game. It doesn’t lead you through a 10 min tutorial on what everything does it’s pretty self explanatory. The only downside is the arena. Only because not everyone plays it so it leads to a lot of very high level players being in the bronze bracket. I’ve been trying to get past bronze 1 (the lowest/starting bracket) but I keep running into player who have max level cards and every combo and I don’t stand a chance. It happens every time I’m just about to leave bronze 1. I wouldn’t even mention it but it’s sooo consistent that it’s really bugs me. I can’t enjoy the pvp without getting held back due to players who are much stronger than me and I probably won’t be on their level for a while. Besides that this is great game, and you shouldn’t let the area a stop you from getting this game. It’s not impossible to move up it’s just frustrating sometimes. ### 3/5 — Fun but.. *2026-03-23, version 2.22.6* The game is really fun and interesting. Many combos and unique cards and I love the new daily rewards but I have only 1 issue, In the original mode there was a real time PVP mode to go against friends but now you can’t which is the reason why I only gave it 3 stars. ### 4/5 — Must read for new players(ranked)/games has made good updates. *2026-03-11, version 2.22.6* I am a legendary 2 player ranking caters to the top 50 and any player trying to go up will hit a wall so hard you will grind months to move an inch. Rewards are not worth it. ### 4/5 — Amazing Game *2026-02-28, version 2.22.6* This game is amazing. Going through the missions has been fun but now that I’ve maxed both sections out I do hope the devs come out with more areas. Collecting different cards and events is not bad. More events with different bosses would be nice too but over all if you haven’t played it you should. ### 4/5 — Great Game! *2026-02-22, version 2.22.6* I love this game so much, there is evidence of really well considered progression, especially in early game, and the art style is both unique and simplistic enough to allow for a variety of characters to be created. I love the concept, and the execution is chefs kiss. My only issues with the game are about ease of use, specifically with cards and combination. In the combination archive and card archive, I think you should consider incorporating more information about each card. This could include showing the different combos (that have already been unlocked- unresearched combos can remain blank) that create each card, making it easier to know what cards create different combos, allowing for deck optimisation based on strategy and information (rather than relying on remembering which cards create different combos). Another issue I’ve run into is the arena. I constantly find myself swamped by diamond and onyx rarity cards, when I haven’t had the opportunity to get my hands on any. Making the arena nigh-impossible st any stage drives away the fan base (which is such a shame because I love this game). I think by introducing a system that sorts by card rarity and levels in a deck (pitting similar level decks against each other) will make the arena more balanced, more fun, and more user-friendly. Thank you for reading my review, I love your art style and all the cards are so unique and fun!! I hope you take my critiques into consideration- love it! ### 4/5 — Bug *2026-02-17, version 2.22.6* This is the second time I've had a situation where I had a gold card in my deck at level 5, and another one I wanted to combine with it, so I removed the extra one at level 1, then suddenly I can't combine the two at level 5 because one disappeared, what's going on? ### 3/5 — Vs *2026-01-30, version 2.22.6* Le falta poder jugar contra un amigo 1vs1 ### 5/5 — Good game, weird bug *2026-01-28, version 2.22.6* I love this game and enjoy playing it. I keep running into a bug where one of my decks will completely disappear and mirror a different deck. I have a deck for heroic trials and this is the third time I have gone into my heroic trail and all of the sudden my deck is exactly the same as my arena deck. It’s really annoying because then I have to remake my deck everytime and I don’t always remember how it goes. ### 5/5 — Very good customer service. *2026-01-27, version 2.22.6* They were very helpful :) ### 4/5 — Account Lost *2026-01-27, version 2.22.6* So basically this app is great and have no problems and I’ve been playing ever since the app with the old bionic chinchilla picture on the cover. So when this app got renewed my account has been lost and now trying to link my Apple account to the app and it just gave me the new data. So I wasted all the time grinding for the cards and combos. ### 5/5 — Pls read *2026-01-17, version 2.22.6* Umm I’m trying to sign in into my kongreate account for run but it only lets me Sign in with Apple I only got this game for the skin in run it’s pretty simple and easy i don’t play card games it’s not my type of thing but this games cool combos are easy the concepts pretty simple in general not a bad game though ### 5/5 — Love this game *2025-12-15, version 2.22.6* I was like 10 playing this and I found it again I’ve never left a review on a game but I feel like I have to on this game was my childhood I’m 21 now so it’s been some time ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Pay to win + Abandonned *2026-08-12, version 2.22.6* Le jeu est fun au début mais on atteint rapidement un palier où il faut payer, sans quoi tu peux rester bloqué des semaines en attendant d’avoir assez d’énergie pour farmer les cartes, et de toute façon il faut patienter 12h pour débloquer la moindre technologie utile sachant qu’il y a des centaines… donc bof, un énième jeu mobile à la poubelle ### 1/5 — Default deck *2026-08-04, version 2.22.6* No matter what I do, it’ll always jump back to the default deck on matches?! ### 1/5 — Unbalanced PvP *2026-07-29, version 2.22.6* This game is only fun as long as you aren’t interested in the rewards the arena fights (PvP) have to offer because after about 50 points in you’re met with opponents you cannot beat because they should be far higher up in the ranking. And because they aren’t they act like an impenetrable wall for new players, making it impossible to climb up higher in the rankings. ### 1/5 — Помойка *2026-03-11, version 2.22.6* Донатная помойка ### 1/5 — Too many OP players *2026-03-05, version 2.22.6* Good game, can’t win any matches as every player I face is using Over Power cards that can kill me in one shot. How is it considered fair. Get rid of the powers ### 1/5 — Wanted to like it *2026-01-14, version 2.22.6* I really like the concept of this game. However this company is running it poorly. Even after spending a little at the beginning it pairs me against people so much better in arena and it feels like their just isn’t much content to do beyond that and waiting for fusions of the cards to upgrade. I really liked the idea and concept behind this, but it just feels bad and like a waste of time. It feels more tedious than fun right from the start ### 1/5 — Gros bug *2025-12-28, version 2.22.6* Ça fait plus d’un an que je ne peux plus ouvrir l’application, j’ai de nombreuses heures de jeu donc c’est assez frustrant. Un message s’affiche me disant qu’il y a un problème avec mon compte j’ai envoyé des mails à la direction mais ça n’a jamais abouti c’est dommage… ### 1/5 — À fuir *2025-11-18, version 2.22.6* Bien qu’un gameplay et principe sympa, nous sommes sur un pay to win (pour l’arène)… Tout est fait pour que vous achetiez toujours plus de ressources pour vous en sortir. En bronze 3 vous tomberez sur des « joueurs » imbattables. Vous auriez pu faire semblant un minimum… ### 1/5 — Poor Matchmaking *2025-10-10, version 2.22.6* The match making is horrendously optimized. Placing you against other players that are clearly above your level and not giving you the opportunity to place higher on the rankings. ### 1/5 — Glitch with Recycling Cards *2025-09-03, version 2.22.6* It keeps doing the tutorial for recycling your card in a deck and then it’ll force me to select a starter card and then tell me I need to be level 6+ or 15+. Then the screen goes gray and i can’t continue and recycle any card. Please fix this ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-06-24, version 2.22.6* I played this when it first came out when I was younger and loved it. I’m so glad they remade it, this is a classic! ### 5/5 — Hope to see more frequent updates! *2026-05-25, version 2.22.6* Your company hasn't released a new version in a long time. I hope you can roll out more events. ### 5/5 — 10 years and still playing. *2026-05-23, version 2.22.6* I love this game so much. No ads too. 10 years later and still playing <3 ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2026-05-20, version 2.22.6* This game is really fun and I still love it after 10 years ### 5/5 — Thank you! *2026-05-14, version 2.22.6* I first downloaded this game in 2014, and I’m coming back to it now after losing my data on my old phone. The nostalgic art and gameplay style — no AI or ads — is rare these days. Thank you to the developers for keeping it this way! ### 5/5 — Meglio *2026-05-06, version 2.22.6* Di poste italiane ### 5/5 — love this game *2026-03-28, version 2.22.6* Recently chance upon this game and downloaded it out of curiosity. Love the mechanics as well as how versatile the cards combination can be. Amidst my exploration with the game, I realise that the last update was years back (the story mode stopped at the second island which probe me to check). This game has huge potential imo, as it spoke interest in people who love a good card battle x having the flexibility on the game play. hope the the developer will relook at this and rework on the game. ### 5/5 — Must read for new players(ranked)/this game has made great updates. *2026-03-13, version 2.22.6* If you like card game you will enjoy this. So many cards and combos to make cool cards. And so many cards make reference to so many things its fun. I am a legendary 2 player ranking caters to the top 50 and any player trying to go up will hit a wall so hard you will grind months to move an inch. Rewards are not worth it. Further i wish they made a 3rd path to truly make this game for challenging or some kind of different heroic trial. Getting tired of the same people. ### 5/5 — =P *2026-03-07, version 2.22.6* i just wish that my account i had from middle school was transferrable lol but it is a "remaster" ### 5/5 — This app is fun *2026-03-07, version 2.22.6* I like this game because this game is so great --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
