### 2/5 — Worst RNG game

*2026-08-15, version 4.4.4*

At first I thought I could catch cool monster but I was so wrong. The catch rate is horrible and what’s worst was the summon rate as well, unable to summon decent monsters. The arena (Astro League) also plots me against player I can beat (especially their non-stop stun and energy drain). Please improve this game.

### 4/5 — i used to be a long player

*2026-07-07, version 4.4.0*

I used to play this game a long time ago mostly during middle school and I decided to download it again to check out what was going on in this game, to say the least I got a huge wave of nostalgia and felt happy playing this again. But the reason why I can’t give it full stars is because of the new character designs. most are okay but a few look really odd like Eliza or very detailed characters which isn’t bad but I loved the simple designs this game had. It looks weird seeing the new characters because theyre so offputting to look at. Few characters I DO think has really good models are Aesir, Somnus, Daphne, Canariah, Nalakuvara, Yukina, Huah, Ariana, Van Helsing, and of course our original Horan. The reason why I think these are good is because they’re simple but also have a lot of details to them that don’t look offputting. Most of the new humanoid astromons in this game look very offputting like Halloween bride Spooky, Hannya and even the men. This game should’ve stuck with more cutesy and simple models as it fits the aesthetic and also isn’t too much on the eyes. I don’t think I would be able to play much longer if the newer characters continue to look like uncanny valley vibes.

### 3/5 — Stockage

*2026-07-04*

Je mets que 3/5 car sa fait des années que l’on demande une augmentation de stockage et toujours rien 500 c’est rien quand il y a près de 5k astro si on compte les 5 éléments j’ai du libérer tous mes astro 1⭐️ et 2⭐️ natif même ceux que j’avais monté evo 3 lvl 60 par manque de places je vois vraiment pas l’intérêt de frustrer les joueurs comme ça ou de créer un astrobook si on peut pas le compléter par manque de places.

### 3/5 — Mitigé

*2026-06-07*

Le jeu est mignon . A une véritable histoire . Ressemble à des jeux comme ni no kuni ou Pokémon avec un côté Summoners wars . 
Il y a pas mal d’événements et énormément de quêtes débutant . 
Le fait d’avoir des personnages que l’on capture dans le scénario est une très bonne idée . En plus il y a plusieurs versions du mob . Un système d’évolution qui change l’apparence du personnage. Des donjons , une toa , du pvp , du contenu guilde bref il a tout pour plaire .
Toutefois je reste sur la réserve .
Les évolutions des personnages demandent énormément de temps et de doublons . Sachant qu’à chaque éveil il faut des monstres identiques et de même niveau d’éveil . Il y a 3 niveaux d’éveil donc 3 mobs à chaque éveil de même niveau d’éveils . Pour les 5 étoiles ça devient vite une galère . Il existe des nova des petits personnages en forme d’étoile qui permettent de remplacer les mobs nécessaires . Mais ils sont très rares . Encore plus pour les monstres dark/light . Plus les livres pour les skills .
Donc malgré son côté généreux au départ il peut vite devenir un frein si on n’a pas que ce jeu à faire . 
Le taux d’invocation paraît très bas lui aussi . 
Il y a des bannières pour invoquer un mob en particulier . 
Pour ma part je reste mitigé, j’ai passé énormément d’années dans des jeux comme Summoners war , Epic seven etc … et je ne pense plus avoir le temps et la patience de partir pour 1 an minimum pour avoir un compte potable . 
Je pourrai aller plus vite mais c’est passé par la case achat avec des packs qui sont relativement cher . 
Un autre point les pubs utilisées pour avoir diverses récompenses par jour « gratuitement » . Elles sont longues et pas adaptés à un public très jeune . 
Le stop pub est très très cher et pas définitif . C’est de l’abus un prix pareil pour un temps donné . 
Donc oui pour le côté mignon et innovant pour un gatcha , mitigé pour l’évolution et obtention des mobs , pas fan du temps à accorder à ce jeu pour avoir en free2play un compte à peine potable  .

### 4/5 — Языковой барьер

*2026-06-07*

Друзья, я очень люблю вашу игру и уже второй раз возвращаюсь к ней. Но видимо сново уйду, так как очень тяжело играть без русской локализации. Я не хочу вас покидать, по этому прошу вас добавьте русскую локализацию. Умоляю!!!

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2026-05-27, version 4.3.7*

I do not recommend playing this game. The fact that they haven’t done anything about nerfing Dark Persephone is ridiculous. Even if you have a well built team, she can completely wipe them out. If you’re playing in the special league, players cheap out by hiding her. The developers choose to be oblivious by the fact that she BREAKS PvP. Until they actually do something about it, 2 stars. Disappointed.

### 2/5 — Cash Cow

*2026-05-21, version 4.3.7*

26.99. A month just to skip commercials it starts out slow most purchases are not mandatory.  They lure you in and then it just gets more expensive can’t compete without constant purchases.  26.99 for 15 days sorry not a month with no commercials!!!!  And the commercials are like 2 minutes long.  Not to mention they make you wait 30 minutes between commercials and there are 15-20 commercials to watch so after gaming about an hour and a half of commercials you can play for 5 minutes before your again out of resources!!  Horrible culture money grubbing not user friendly at all!  This game encapsulates everything wrong with games in our society.   
I never thought this would happen but recently they limited commercials to 30 seconds which makes it much more reasonable so upping 1 star now if they would take them out or reduce cost of skipping more reasonable I may actually be back.   Still a change for the better nothing to scoff at!

### 3/5 — Game

*2026-03-25, version 4.2.8*

Graphics need to be updated. Come on that’s 2026

### 2/5 — Crashes when I load in

*2026-03-18, version 4.2.4*

I was trying to get back into the game but it completely crashes when I load in.

### 4/5 — Not working

*2026-03-04, version 4.2.3*

The game is not working. It keeps me on the loading screen at 87% and it stays like that. :(((

### 4/5 — Появились баги

*2025-12-18*

Безумно люблю эту игру, но вернувшись обнаружил баги( 

Вечно при загрузке (будь то вход в игру, какой-то ивент, или просто вход на локацию) он зависает и просит перезапустить игру либо подождать. Интернет у меня хороший, но эти загрузки.. и причем отлагивает со второго или третьего раза. 

Сейчас ивент. Решил купить за 300 кристаллов 100 ивентовой валюты. (Было: 120 ивентовой валюты и 344 кристалла) вновь загрузка - баг - отлагивает и проблема. Кристаллы списали, ивентовую валюту не зачислили .. 

Можете решить что-то с этим или мне теперь играть в вашу игру с VPN чтобы избежать таких багов?

### 4/5 — Review

*2025-11-29, version 4.1.5*

Would I recommend this game? For the most part, yes. It’s fun, and I like collecting “monsters” and the necessary gold, gems, and materials to either evolve or gain better stats for each monster. I have been playing this game since the first year it came out, so I have seen how much this game has grown into where it is now. They have certainly gone into the right direction with giving F2P players opportunities to obtain 5 star monsters. Every week there is an event going on which is nice. I don’t mind how the ads are placed in this game to gain different rewards. Two of the best features they’ve added are sweep and a higher auto battle to 50. 

However, I think the worst part of this game is PVP. I disagree with some people that this is not P2W. There are many players that DO spend a lot of money in this game to get ahead, specifically for PVP. The higher you rank, you will see the P2W players. My biggest gripe is that they need to nerf Dark Persephone. She is too OP and makes this mode very unbalanced, especially when you have certain players ($$$) that have 3-4 of them in their lineup. 

PVP needs to be reworked in a way that is more balanced and less repetitive in the sense of the teams you’re fighting. There’s hardly any variation. I feel like they should add certain rules or special event PVP modes, such as having one day where it’s water vs. water monsters. Like the dimensional defense where a different day is a different element. 

Overall, it’s a GOOD game. It’s fun for casual play. It’s grindy, but in a good way. What they do best is that they give a lot of rewards and events that keep you engaged, so you always feel like you’re progressing even if you’re not spending money.

### 1/5 — My progress got reset

*2026-07-07, version 4.4.0*

I had it for five to six years and just today all my progress got reset back to zero now I got to start over so I’m just deleting my app and never playing ever again

### 1/5 — Needs a MAJOR UI/Graphics update

*2026-07-06, version 4.4.0*

This game is so visually outdated the UI is clunky and slow and quite ugly please invest some money into some decent graphics game still looks the same as 9 years ago. Honestly it’s just mot worth spending on a game that looks like a mess.

### 1/5 — Victim of Encrapification

*2026-06-03, version 4.3.7*

They removed the old system that allowed you to spend hours of active and inactive playtime to farm game resources such as energy, gold, & astrogems. They added more and more things you need to spend resources on and limited your ability to farm resources which used to be time consuming. But it was worth it, valuable, and fun. And enabled you to somewhat compete with the whales. You used to be able to repeat the quest for astrogems, the premium currency, an unlimited amount of times. Now they cap you at 24 times a week. Which is not a lot of resources.
Will not be returning to this game until this is reversed.
I’ve spent hundreds of dollars in this game because I love it and it’s a lot of fun. I have the cherry blossom ship. But I refuse to continue this game in this state.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2026-05-12, version 4.3.6*

Been playing for well over a year now. Really enjoying the ease of play and rewards that help you move forward.

One little problem that has popped up since the last maintenance: the game is buffering a lot. Did not know where to report this. I run the game on a Mac (Tahoe)

### 5/5 — good game！

*2026-03-04, version 4.2.3*

I really enjoy this game, and I love its art style. It reminds me of many great games, and it's a great work itself. However, the game doesn't feel very friendly to new players. The progression system is overly complicated. Even though there are plenty of resources given as gifts, the投入 required to build a proper team is way too high compared to what you get, which makes it hard for many people to keep playing. I hope the developers can create more new-player-friendly events. If they do, I'll definitely introduce more friends to join the game.

### 5/5 — Familiar style to a game I like…

*2026-02-06, version 4.1.9*

MSL is a good game, good graphics, nice astromon, but I can’t help but point out that some parts of this game is similar to a game I love, which is cookie run kingdom! And obviously it’s also similar to Pokémon.  But regardless, this game is great and is very fun! 100% recommend!

### 5/5 — Pure F2P

*2026-01-29*

Bonjour, je voudrais noter ce jeu génial ou il n y a pas besoin de payer mais besoin de patience, oui il vous faudra 1 ans pour avoir une team potable mais c est dans tout les jeux, je voudrai aussi noter qu il y a 1 grosse mise à jour par mois ce qui est énorme comparer a d autre jeux, et je reprecise encore il n y a pas besoin de payé juste de la patience les évent du mois vous donneront assez de token pour évoluer, Voilou sur ce enjoy the game

**Developer response:** Hello, Master! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! Your review really makes us happy. We'll work hard to make our game even better.

### 5/5 — Favourite game on IOS.

*2026-01-22, version 4.1.8*

Been playing since high school. Polished, charming, generous with premium currency and a strong development team. I’d go as far to say this is the best game on the App Store.

### 5/5 — Excellent game but…

*2026-01-20, version 4.1.7*

Been playing this game for the last five years off and on unfortunately now it seems to have a bit of crashing problems. I average four times a day. I wish you guys could fix that this game would be a five star game in my eyes. Thank you.

### 5/5 — The bomb

*2026-01-11, version 4.1.7*

Its like summoners but reminds me a lil bit of pokemon, constant rewards and very addictive, lots of creatures to collect and the prize system rocks

### 5/5 — Exciting and F2P Friendly

*2025-11-02, version 4.1.3*

I want to say the combat system(s) are the most fun and balanced in any online/gacha game I’ve played. Characters I’ve had since I was a child are still valid today, and new upgrade systems provide a way to make any of your favorite viable. There is always something that you can do, so I don’t get bored even after clearing the story content. The clan system rewards frequent playing and diversified teams— PVP is great for focusing on a select few characters. If you have a specific pull in mind, it is definitely possible to guarantee a summon from free currency alone. I love that power creep isn’t really an issue, so I don’t feel penalized when life gets a little too busy to game. I came back after 2 years, and despite new content, my old team still held up and could be further upgraded. Worth a try for both casuals or sweatier players.

### 5/5 — So fun! :3

*2025-09-19, version 4.0.9*

I noticed that this game is super fun and really amazing! I miss the old MSL when there used to be role players and it seems I’m the only one who likes to roleplay. I started this game before middle school. I hope that everyone will appreciate roleplaying. :< Also. Thank you for this game so much! :3
