## What is NU?

Long ago, to calm the elemental spirits causing chaos across Klein Continent, Grand Sorcerer Huey placed elemental gemstones capable of regulating nature in five altars, protecting them with magic seals. Each decade, Huey and his clan members would set out on a journey to maintain the altars, but twenty years ago, Huey vanished. With no one to tend to the gemstones, equilibrium slowly gave way to natural disasters and the spread of the Dead Zone. That's when Huey's familiars summoned a protagonist from another world: Eiden.



Following his arrival in Klein, Eiden assumes the mission of the vanished Grand Sorcerer. He learns to regulate his essence—similar to Huey's—and through close bonds with clan members learns to harness its power, so that the seal of the neon gemstone may be released and its strength restored.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2026-08-15, version 5.4.0*

This game has beautiful graphics and is super rewarding. Character designs are great and it’s just an amazing experience overall

### 3/5 — Très bien mais…

*2026-08-14*

C’est un super jeu très original avec des personnages uniques et tous très beaux. Les combats se passent plutôt bien même si je trouve que c’est compliqué parfois car on doit farm pour gagner des levels,sauf que du coup sa m’ennuie donc à force je trouve plus rien à faire sur le jeu. Pour moi le plus gros défaut est que les contracts sont beaucoup trop durs pour avoir des SSR (cartes rares) ou même les cartes des évents. Déjà qu’on paie 6000 cristaux pour 10 contracts qui te garantissent même pas un SR je trouve que c’est trop strict. Donc sa serait bien qu’on puisse augmenter les chances d’en avoir ou de réduire le prix de 10 contracts. Pour le farm j’aimerai bien que on puisse avoir plus de trucs à faire dans le jeu en dehors du combat ou trouver une solution pour éviter de autant devoir augmenter les niveaux pour avoir plus de battle level.

### 5/5 — PLAY ITTTTT!

*2026-08-14, version 5.4.0*

The characters have such good designs and the storyline is really good! I love all of the guys!!!

### 5/5 — Sehr schönes spiel

*2026-08-13*

Ein sehr cooles spiel mit tollen Charakteren in die viel Arbeit gesteckt wurde! Sehr sympathische Charaktere und die storyline ist auch sehr interessant. Das gameplay is auch gut und es macht viel spaß zu spielen. Alldings schade das nur die bliss version auf AppStore gibt aber naja.

### 5/5 — 伊得Nb

*2026-08-11, version 5.4.0*

如题

### 5/5 — Kuyaoli best ship

*2026-08-11, version 5.4.0*

I started playing this game three days ago and I am absolutely in love with it so far. I like how the free rewards are generous but not overly so, allowing you to work for some things. I think I’m extremely lucky to get all three midsummer wish outfits of Kuya, Olivine, and Blade under 55 pulls. I actually got Kuya’s twice in my first ten pull. I love the design for each character but of course, Kuya and Olivine are my favorites oat.

### 5/5 — ts tuff mango 67 boi i- ;-;

*2026-08-10, version 5.4.0*

i goon to ts and all the men are beautiful, eiden is a lucky tuff mango 67 phonk boiii. i want more aster and morvay stuff it isnt 	FAIR 😢😢😢😢😿😿😿😿

### 3/5 — I didn’t get the game

*2026-08-09, version 5.4.0*

Some ppl r saying it’s a pay to play and it doesn’t load and takes up so much storage, and others r saying that it’s the best so like idk

### 5/5 — Игра просто восторг

*2026-08-08*

Игра очень нравится но этот рандом меня убивает. Понравился мне Блейд, так итог: у меня буквально все классик  (sr качества) персонажи есть, у некоторых уже и по несколько звезд, а Блейда мне так ни разу и не дали (это я молчу про ивенты… я плакал, очень много плакал), только ниже sr. А sr моего любимки достала только через донат остатков что были на аппсторе, а в аппстор не задонатить из России по нормальному курсу. а из гачи мне за пару месяцев игры дали буквально 15 осколков. Я плачу, я очень много плачу.

Я люблю эту игру, но моя ремиссия вернулась обратно в стадию депрессии 😭✊

Как работает этот рандом????

### 4/5 — Is there an all female version instead of dudes?

*2026-08-08, version 5.4.0*

This is a great game it is fun but its straight dudes and i am a straight boy so that would be cool if there would be a female version where there not men
