My biggest complaint is that it won’t save your progress, I just redownloaded this to have to restart. What kind of game doesn’t save? ### 3/5 — Anymore levels *2025-11-16* I’m on hard difficulty world world 10, all level 3 stars? I don’t understand how you beat this game there is nothing left? ### 3/5 — Very addictive, many bugs. *2025-10-20* Very fun, very addicting game, but keep finding new bugs every time I play. Including losing items I’ve won which is unbelievably frustrating. Update your game!!! ### 2/5 — FIX PLEASE *2025-09-09, version 0.740* There should be ZERO reason for an enemy to hit me and get knocked back before the damage from my attack hits. Please fix this ridiculous stupidity ### 3/5 — Fun but big problem *2025-09-08* Keeps crashing once I nearly finish a level and is fun just that the crashing ruins the game. ### 2/5 — バグ？仕様？ *2025-08-11* ※アップデートしたらジムのスキルレベル上げられるはずの項目が「すでにスキルレベル上限に達している」と出てレベル上げられなかった。(恐らく不具合) ※スキルをリロールしたり復活する際、広告を観た後だとゲーム速度が1.5倍の設定でも振り子だけ等速になってしまう(速度を切り替え直すと戻るみたいだが、忘れやすいし手間) ・レアのスキルに振り子が常に回転するものがあるが、振り子がプレイヤーより上の位置に行くのはロスばかりでデメリットだと感じたのでおそらく無い方が良い ・スキル:おまけハンマーのスキルが機能しなくなることがしばしばある ・ユニバーサルソウルをエグザルテッドまで合成した結果レジェンドまでは回復効果だったのに敵の移動速度アップに変わってた 敵の移動速度は遅い方がクリアしやすいのでデメリットにしか感じない ・ソウルのマージは合成したくないものは選んでロックしてマージされないようにしてほしい(エピックのレアリティにスキルを初期装備するものが有用なので合成したくない) ・スライム系エネミーを1〜2段階倒す際、振り子の当たり方によって分裂後のスライムの位置がかなりズレてプレイヤーに急接近してそのまま猛攻を受けるような挙動はやめてほしい ☆報酬が貰えるデイリーやウィークリーのミッションを常設化してほしい ### 3/5 — NEED MORE LEVELS!! *2025-08-05* The games is very addictive. Love it! Way too difficult though. I have finished the last level. I’m putting it on the shelf until you add more levels. If I would have known there were only 10 worlds I wouldn’t have bought the add free…..twice!! ### 2/5 — Very short lived. *2025-07-27* First few islands were fun and posed a good challenge, but I’ve only been playing for a day and I’m already locked by the difficulty. I’m on 6-1 and the level throws so many enemies at you that you end up spending more time watching ads to retry than actually playing the game. This game is very quickly losing its originality due to the amount of ads you need to sit through. I had a lot of fun for a few hours but I predict I’ll be deleting this app within an hour if this continues. ### 3/5 — It’s fun, BUT. *2025-07-12* It’s fun and enjoyable way to kill some time. I do wish it gave a bit more info on the “enemies” screen this way I could know what some of their stats are to better equip against. But my biggest hang up on the game is the fact that I purchased the ad free license, which is great, but it stopped after a few days. I’d like to figure out why this happened. So give me a shout game devs and let me know what’s going on. I even have the Apple Store receipt for the purchase. ### 3/5 — ログイン対策か *2025-07-04* ストーリーとは関係ない病気の妹のために薬草を手に入れる為にバトル、ほっといたら死正直いらない要素、どのタイミングでやるかユーザー次第だろ？ ### 2/5 — 技が動作しない *2025-07-04* 衝撃波が最初の一回きりでそれ以降発動しないです。 ### 3/5 — Hit a wall *2025-06-24, version 0.675* Gotta work on the progression aspect of the game. I hit a wall and lost interest ### 4/5 — Shockwave *2025-06-19* I love this game but I wish the shockwave worked more than once per match ### 3/5 — Good at first, now bad. *2025-06-17, version 0.675* I fail almost all the time. Make the exercises faster and stronger! 1. 10-20 Damage and Health, 30:00. 2. 20-50 Damage and Health, 1:30:00. 3. 50-100 Damage and Health, 2-4 hours. ### 3/5 — Fun game! *2025-06-13* Fun game! Really enjoy it! But the only issue I’m having is the shockwave ability seems to be having issues working. It seems to only activate once and that’s it. ### 2/5 — Fun but slightly scummy *2025-06-10, version 0.675* I had purchased ad free a week before the most recent update (as of 06-09-2025) and after the update I am getting forced ads again, but it is a fun game just slightly annoying that it ate my money ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 強制広告あるよ *2026-01-28* ちょっとおもろかったけどね…残念 ### 1/5 — Audio *2026-01-23, version 0.740* Let me turn off audio you dicks ### 1/5 — Ridiculous micro transactions *2025-12-19, version 0.740* I’ve seen no ad bundles cost less than six dollars but at least they are permanent and don’t expire after a week. Marketing team needs to get rotated. ### 1/5 — Money grab / data mining *2025-09-14* The game is so basic it questions why there is even a shop. Every level is literally the same. They just make the enemies slightly harder, so you can pay to keep up or get stuck. It’s just another game with ads, a shop, and wanting to get your data to sell to a third party ### 1/5 — ITS A MONEY GRAB! *2025-09-08* Weapons do not work consistently at all. This game seems to be rigged so you will have to spend money. It is very addictive and fast paced so at first I didn’t notice that some attacks were not working. I am deleting this and will find another game that actually has support from the creator. ### 1/5 — 설명이없어 *2025-07-25* 스킬레벨 어케올리는데? 2에서 끝이야?? ### 1/5 — 2-2 is impossible *2025-06-17, version 0.675* In 2-2 the shawman make my pendulum too small and I have no defense against the he zombies that barge in and swarm me while I have nothing to defend myself with ### 1/5 — INSTANT KILL NO WAY *2025-06-02* the bird boss literally kills you STRAIGHT AWAY NO WAY to powerful please make it weaker ### 1/5 — No sound controls *2025-05-30, version 0.675* No sound controls ### 1/5 — Missing alot *2025-05-29* Shockwave doesnt work (will literally be filled and enemies will be right against me and nothing sets it off to knock them back) no info on enemies and what can hit them vs what cannot. Barely any info at all in this game. The knockback is inconsistent. Damage per combo does not work right at all, doesnt stack as the name suggests. This game has great potential but its just filled with bugs and is missing so much info it just keeps me closing it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 面白いけど残念 *2025-08-24* ジュエルの使い道が少な過ぎる。スキンって項目があるのにスキンのガチャは無いし、ガチャが全然なくて本当に使い味が少な過ぎる。 ステージクリアするための装備も上限が低い気がする。 淡々とステージクリアをしていくゲームだけど、面白い要素が結構少ない気がするなら、せめてスキンガチャとかジュエルもっと使えるようにして欲しい 7日間チャレンジ（週間ミッション）新しく出来たけど、7日間過ぎても一向に新しくならないのはなんでですか ### 5/5 — Skill cap??? *2025-08-08, version 0.740* How do I get to skill cap lvl 3 there’s no information on it? Otherwise the game is perfect ### 5/5 — めっちゃ面白い *2025-07-08* 通学時間中とかの隙間時間にやりたくなるゲーム 振り子で敵を倒すってあんまりなかったから新鮮で面白い ただ気になったところが… ・衝撃波が敵が近づいても発生しない ・敵の落とす経験値？が下の方だと取りづらいので、もう少し中央寄りにして欲しい ・ソウルを一度全て外す時、一つずつ外すのが手間 ・ソウル一覧の並び方を種類別や効果別(HP回復など)に並び替えしたい 以上が気になりました それと、仕方のないことではありますが、毎回クリアか失敗かに関わらず広告が流れるのが少しだけストレスではあります。 とても面白いゲームでクオリティも高いので、ぜひ頑張ってください🙏 ### 5/5 — Pendulum sweeper *2025-06-26* I really am loving this game! The different add ons with each level progression is really fun! Shock wave seems to be my favorite, thank you guys for making such a cool game. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2025-06-21, version 0.675* Helps me release dopamine! ### 5/5 — Interesting game *2025-06-02* The game is pretty solid and very addictive 10/10. ### 5/5 — めちゃくちゃ面白い *2025-05-20* だけども、Google版と仕様があまりに違いすぎて、そこだけ統一して欲しい。Google版は星5です。 追記 Google版は難易度が低すぎたため調整が入ってiPhoneと統一されました。 と言うことで星5です 正直広告が多すぎるので、そこまで広告入れないとダメならもう課金させて欲しい。 難点はそこぐらいでしょうか… お願いです。もっと遊びたいのでもっとアップグレードやコンテンツの拡充してください！というか課金させてください！ 開発中ですよね？そうですよね？？！ まってます！ ### 5/5 — Shockwave bug *2025-05-02* Really fun game. However the latest patch is causing a bug to occur in combat with Shockwave. It seemingly triggers once, then stops entirely for remainder of the round. Not sure if it’s the enemies or what, but it’s not working. ### 5/5 — Live Laugh Love Pendulum *2025-04-29* I play this game almost everyday, it’s peak almost all around, the storyline about yellow guy trying to save his wife and the enemies trying to fumble his attempts. If he fails he returns to his house to work out non stop to become stronger, good theme of motivation and to not stop fighting for what you love. W game 👏👏👏👏👏 ### 5/5 — Amazing game *2025-04-14* I love this game! Im glad i found it everythings perfect idk what that other guy is saying theres few ads the only thing i suggest changing is the graphics the enemies coming up the mountain look very unrealistic also you guys should add vfx! Other than that its a great game. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
