hay

although it is a pretty much pay to win game after months I was able to climb the ranks to make it to 8th place without spending a dime I say it’s a pay to win game but it’s really just the try hard players that want to make it worse for everyone by buying absolutely anything they can buy but whatever I just wish they made it easier to get the new characters and such

Meh

Cute story, cute characters, cute art, that’s really all that this game has to offer. The gameplay is just ok. It gets really boring really quick. Resources are also really annoying to grind for, despite being very important, seeing as the game seems to expect you to level up very fast at the very beginning. So, having characters levels locked behind resources you can’t grind for is very annoying. This game is definitely not for everyone. Wouldn’t recommend unless you’re willing to invest money into it.

This is amazing!

And all of my years of playing games I never find a game that I could actually enjoy I’m 10 years old and enjoying this so much. I hope they make more games like this and I know I’m only at the introduction part of the game but I hope I get to see snow white soon. I’m just saying it’s so far because I never got this far into a game and didn’t get to the point where I got bored I can’t wait to see the ending!

Best idle game

Honestly after playing this game for a month now I can say this is my favorite idle game ever. Honestly has more in depth than most ever have. Usually most are just clones of a clone of a clone of another clone. This one feels much different than that best part that I have loved most is the story is amazing and the changes to the characters is incredible. Usually altering stories or characters from their original can go bad however y’all make it as if you made the characters and stories even better vs making a new whole thing that goes bad. Really love the good guys showing some narcissism because no one is perfect and the villains living up to the saying “not all villains are born some were heroes who got turned to that way”. One thing I know I’m hoping to see is maybe see beauty and the beast, wizard of oz, and Pinocchio cz those are some of my favorites growing up. Lastly I do love the few of the mythology characters added in a way that they seem more like fairy tale characters than mythology characters which is awesome too.

I’m having fun

I’ve been playing for 3 days now. The game is grindy as every ha ha game is but the development team seems generous in the resources they give you as you play. I saw a response they are fixing the voice issue. My one suggestion is making a landscape mode option because I would prefer to play horizontal on my iPad instead of vertical when charging my device. I hope for more characters and updates! My favorite class is the life federation. Interesting story too!

I love this game

This game is a game that I play like almost 24/7 although it gets a bit repetitive, I love the character designs, the adventure story and the mechanics, it’s a mechanic I wish I saw a lot more in rpg games but I do wish there were more Disney characters or just characters in general and more partners, I also wish that there are like a few weeks chance to be able to collect old character designs as partners because they look so pretty and some of them are better than the new ones but it’s also for people who didn’t get a chance to get those characters old designs or for people who got them to promote them if they haven’t and the game is a bit pay to win, I wish there were less things I had to pay real money for just to have and instead get it with game currency but otherwise this game is perfect and I love it.

I love this game

This game is very fun to play, I love the character designs, I love the dynamics and mechanics and I love the adventure storyline but I wish there were more Disney characters in the game and more ways to get camp recruit points instead of just the underground camps but regardless I really enjoy the game.

I also request to add a mechanic in the settings to be able to turn off and on the voice acting for people like me who accidentally took off voice acting without knowing and want it back and for the people who just want to read the text some days then listen to it on other days.

I love this game but one thing stops me from giving it a 5

The game is incredible the graphics are stunning I love how it’s cute but creepy and the lore of the characters are incredible! But saying that I’m sadly unable to play chapter two of Snow White when it makes you do the castle encounters where you come across the Mystic Seller every time I come across him my game completely freezes.

This is the best game I’ve seen

This game is so fun to play, I’ve never seen a game like this before so this was a really addicting change, although as fun as it is I wished there was more Disney characters like maleficent, queen of hearts, etc and characters that are already in the game like the witch in the Ali baba chapter and others but overall I love the designs, the plot and the mechanics and the game in general and I can’t wait to see the new updates and hope you take my feedback into consideration.

Wish I could give 5 stars

I want to play this game more than I do. Here’s what makes me put down the game, and why I’m going to delete it, in spite of the fact that I like the art and the battles and the collection and the character growth aspect.

1) My phone heats up (iphone 13 mini)

2) It feels a little laggy or unresponsive. Like I have to tap on things sort of deliberately and sometimes it takes a second to respond.

3) Way too confusing on all the in app purchases and different currencies and events. It’s just way too much to sort through and figure out, and doesn’t add to the fun of the game. I know I’m missing out on rewards in part just because it’s so incredibly cluttered and confusing

4) Way too many iaps. Another thing going on with all these iaps is that even though I’d be willing to spend up to $20 I know that it wouldn’t matter. There’s constantly “top up” events and temporary packs and so much stuff that I know I would fall so far behind and eel like I missed out, so I might as well not play at all.

Very strong start, falling flat to p2w

I really enjoyed this game up until the last few weeks. The story was fun, the characters interesting. However, it became increasingly difficult to find people actually PLAYING. As of this week, only three guilds in my server are actually active and half of them haven’t been on in a week.

This is likely due to predatory micro transactions and the nerfing of characters. You hit a wall mid late game that frankly, all the free pulls in the world can’t get you past. You have to pay money or you just sit. I’ve finally given up. Between being bombarded by pages and pages of micro transactions and paywalled from certain features, to having absolutely zero people actively playing on my server leaving me feeling like I’m in a ghost town, this game is dead before it even really got on its own two legs.

Love this game

This game has amazing graphics, a great story, plot, and amazing characters. This is probably my new favorite game in the entire universe. I love it so much. The only thing that I would say that isn’t that great is that there aren’t a lot of characters; I mean there is a good variety of them, but I would still enjoy a few more. Overall, this game is pretty good but we can always approve. That’s why I’m giving it four stars.

Pay2Win

Been playing it a good bit, fun story lines, good graphics, lots of freebies to gather. Probably spent $15 on some niceties in the beginning myself, but the game seems to be designed for those who can drop $100s. Tons of $50-$100 “bargains” daily. I’d say the average level is 180 at this point, but there are already solid 240 teams (which doesn’t sound like a lot but the leveling system is on a incremental curve and the amount of resources you need can’t be “farmed” or gathered readily, only bought). Anyway, it’s not horrible in the least but it’s disappointing it’s designed for whales and the sort, they can bully you too, there are no sanctuary level breaks. If your on a server with one and your top 10 or so but you have that one whale can disrupt the entire server and you with it. If you can get around the unbalanced PvP, and the free-to-play slow grind due to lacking resources, you’ll enjoy the stories and the characters I’m sure. But be warned, you’ll not finish some stories for days as you wait for more daily freebies to build up your resource stocks to level up characters to continue.

S+ drop % has GOT to be upped

The game is very f2p it seems which is a good competitor to afk arena. But afk arena's f2p problem is not being able to progress. This one is not leveling partners. I dont want to feel like Im getting a hard slow down because I cant level up partners. Progressing is fine, but that will stop soon if you cant level up partners. Or make the certain amount of draws to S+ and not S. Its so anti consumer.

Pay to win

I would give the game a 5 star’s rating. When start up the game you get bombarded with ads. You’re doing the same thing over and over again. I have been playing this game for three weeks. it’s getting very repetitive. Suggestion cut the amount of adds back. Then it will become a better game. Plus give the human the ability to control the toons in the fight.

Fun for a week only. Pay2win game

This game is fun for a week only if you’re free to play. Take it as a trial run. You can’t progress without having to “idle” for exp or other stuff you need to level up the characters. I’ve gone as far as I can in story and shadow thing. There’s nowhere else to farm for what I need. BUT they do have one million ways to sell you things for real money. 3 popups when you open the game. All the side panels are “events” aka time limited promotions to make you spend real money. When those are over, new events pop up. 2 stars because I actually enjoyed it while I could.

Fun, but it will absolutely cost you.

I played for a while, spent ~30$. It’s compelling because the character designs are so good. Immediately it becomes pay to play, that’s just how these games work. I had a pretty good team going, attempting higher content, straining a bit. The Cinderella “offer” pops up. She’s clearly a must have character, and I can buy her for only 50$ vs. the other 99$ offers I’d ignored. Deleted the game. If you want to pay and play, it’s nice. I don’t. It’s greedy.

Really fun

I like this game a lot. Gems are easy to get. For once I honestly don’t feel like I cannot grow in a game without spending money. The reason I didn’t give this a 5 is because the message system is not very good. I’m guessing whoever designed it stares at fluorescent bulbs drooling on themselves. Could you possibly make it so it accepts more than 5 words with a 12 hour wait before you can post again? Oh how about making the filters more strict please? If you use a word with more than 2 syllables it filters you or is your target demographic people with an iq of 3? Is your iq 3 so you don’t want intelligent people insulting your obvious inability to outthink a stump? I’m guessing facebook fact checkers designed the filters.

Super recommend

I’m not usually this type of game but the art style was appealing enough for me to give it a try. I loved the concept and the way it portrays the old fairytales with a dark twist is very refreshing. I’m only not a big fan of the amount of pay to win content. I think it’s pushed too much and sometimes I feel F2P players are missing out by a lot. Still I really enjoy it and the events and minigames. Have played every day since launch!
