### 3/5 — Here’s a cheat for ya

*2026-08-08*

This games monitization is outta this world. So here’s how to mitigate all of it since the devs stopped updating it over a year ago. You know how you get to use those x10 weapons 3x a day after midnight and also the free gems and cash. Well between 8pm- 12 am just close the game and you can do it all over again.  Weapons, skills, gems and cash that really means nothing by the way. Also when using the meat or whatever from events you can buy as many different ones each time. I did buy the option to by pass the ads so it is faster. Didn’t notice until way later on. Just think almost 300 diamonds per minute with each 30 weapons and skills. I would have informed the devs in their discord but they don’t even have that. Currently sitting at level 15 weapons and level 14 skills. Have fun and hopefully this helps all of you as well and maybe the devs will fix some stuff or add more weapons. If you want to get far level up your faster weapons first like the bow and arrows. Upgrade attack speed. Health and attack crit chance and % are maxed.

### 1/5 — 오류가 안잡혀요

*2026-07-30*

5일됐는데 이벤트 접속오류로 안들어짐.. 고객센터도 없고 커뮤니티도 없음 버려진 게임같음

### 5/5 — Updates

*2026-07-13*

Very cool game, if only they had more updates and introduced clans and more achievements or a goal to work towards

### 1/5 — Money grabber

*2026-07-07, version 28*

Games like these are pretty simple. I spent money on the game, figured a $20 purchase would be fine. Checked my bank account and I was charged double the amount. Also be prepared to waste lots of time in this game as there isn’t offline progression, you have to sit and watch to play the game.

### 2/5 — No ads IAP only partly functional

*2026-07-07*

My home internet has a pihole. Usually this means I can’t click to watch an ad, that’s fine. When available I’ll sometimes purchase no-ads IAPs like I did here. Some of the ad rewards work, many don’t - some buttons seem like they want to load an ad before I can click it. They can’t load one so they don’t work. 

The in-game discord link doesn’t lead to a server, it just launches discord. The support link on this App Store page leads to a privacy statement.

Big womp. 2 stars instead of one because it still seems up my alley but the IAP not fully working bums me out.

### 5/5 — good

*2026-07-06*

korean plz

### 4/5 — Great game needs some tweaks

*2026-05-28*

Love the game as a hole i like how grind heavy it is and i like how you get no offline progress, makes it way more rewarding when you progress

Some problems with it is that the prestige system isn’t that rewarding it needs better balancing, making making it so that you can keep one of your turrets after you prestige would be nice, i haven’t gotten anything above a rare yet which is fine but i could get one in the next event and there’s no way i’ll be prestiging after that, another way to make prestiging worthwhile would be if you reset the limited ad summons after a prestige i think that would help too i know why the game is like this but the prestige honestly doesn’t do anything you get more progress by just waiting it out and using 3 summon ads every day i got mine upto 3x gold but i don’t see why i need more than that all gold upgrades go up in a slower manner than gold summoning so it’s pretty much pointless. Well as far as i know.

But overall a very fun game and the prestige system is fine i just don’t see much use to it, other bugs are the events the raid event is buggy and you have to wait for it to refresh for you to see any progress and a lot of times the spells don’t work randomly when they’re on auto.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2026-05-13, version 28*

This “game” is a scam. There is no actual team behind it. The events are basic and top scorers are obviously cheating, using auto clickers, or they’re just bots that the devs put in to get players to spend money. Fun 1-2 hour time suck then it’s garbage.

### 1/5 — Out of control ads

*2026-04-27, version 28*

I don't mind watching ads for rewards but the ads in this game are way way way too long

### 1/5 — No offline progress.

*2026-04-21*

Would give zero if I could based on that and the following. The game has been abandoned. The prestige system is AWFUL. Wow bonus GOLD and nothing else. Pointless waste of time. Boss/gold rush doesn’t reset or repeat so you can only do it one or two times total per prestige once you max it out in your first run. You can watch 10,000 ads if you want to skip ahead. The dev made no cap on them (except of course units/skills which is what you really need). Lastly the event/tournament system is deeply locked into the game compared to everything else. Don’t expect to get to that for quite a while. If you like to be punished go ahead and hit that download. If you want to waste money toss it in the whole 3 things the dev offers in the shop for 20$.
