Well worth paying the small price (of optional extras) to support the developer and enhance your gameplay experience even more. ### 5/5 — Performance of the game *2025-08-07, version 1.1.3* The game is good and all but it’s performance is kinda worse than the first game, even at low setting (Im on iphone 8 plus) ### 3/5 — Might just be a me problem *2025-07-13, version 1.1.3* I think the game graphics/ UI is actually worse then the first game, as the curved designs make the cards smaller and sometimes the game wont let me look at the details of the cards. Also the blue seems brighter/ more saturated then the red in the first game so it kinda hurts my eyes the longer i stare at it. Also not sure if its the actual case, but all the option buttons seem smaller? Like the reset field and the taking rewards button. Also this might just because i have an older phone, but the game doesn't run as smoothly as the first game? So far i think the newly added cards and game mechanics are great additions, but on game performance i prefer the first game. ### 5/5 — bruh *2025-06-23, version 1.1.3* good game but still bug: sometimes can't check opponent's card information. Transition effects and combat effects are not smooth, especially when set to 'Best' graphics mode, I think its effects are much worse than part 1. ### 5/5 — 完璧 *2025-06-01, version 1.1.3* イラスト100点、ゲーム性100点 ### 4/5 — Ui seems to be worse than part 1 *2025-05-29* Really love part 1 so i downloaded part 2 and i haven’t really played the game much yet but the UI already seems to be not as smooth as part 1, espeacially on the menu where you choose between modes. It doesn’t really affect the gameplay but still makes the overall experience quite uncomfortable espeacially on a card game like this ### 3/5 — Ads Softlocked Me *2025-05-25* I played the first game and enjoyed it for quite a while, so I was real excited to play this. From what I played so far, there are plenty of new cards and enemies to play with. And I would really like to keep playing. However, the way they changed ad popups to appear after each floor boss softlocked my game because for some reason the X button on the ads simply does not function. Even after closing and reopening the game, the ad simply plays again and traps me. I really hope this isn’t intentional. If it isn’t, I hope a fix comes real soon. If this is a ploy to incentivize spending $5, it would be incredibly scummy and disappointing. Again, I liked the previous game, and I really wanna like this one too. ### 3/5 — チュートリアルの途中で謎の少女の立ち絵が黒い四角になるから確認して *2025-05-17* しく！ ### 5/5 — just GOAT긴 한데... *2025-05-13* 솔직히 다 좋아요 전작이랑 다르게 하려고 노력한것도 보이구요 근데...광고가 좀 심하게 나오는듯 왠만하면 그냥 보는데 전투 한번 할때마다 광고 하나 나오는 느낌이라... 광고 딱 15%만 줄이면 좋을것 같네요...광고 제거 사고 싶지만 제가 그지라 못삽니다 죄송합니다.. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — かすうんち *2026-04-29, version 1.1.7* 広告の×ボタンが消えて広告が消えない ゲーム自体はおもろい ### 1/5 — 과거에는 *2025-05-24, version 1.1.2* 구글계정으로도 진행상황 공유 및 결제내역 공유 되서 좋았는데 이제는 각자 결제 해야함 ### 1/5 — First one was vastly better. *2024-12-06, version 1.1.1* Full of ads and unfair enemies unlike the first game. ### 1/5 — 課金誘導>ゲーム体験 *2024-11-17* 1ゲームの途中でも定期的に30〜50秒で強制広告。 ゲームの集中力が途切れて「今、何してたんだっけ？」となる。 もちろんある程度の集金の仕組みがあるのは仕方ないけど、頻度や広告の時間的にゲーム体験を著しく損なっている。 ゲームを作ってお金を稼ぐんじゃくて、お金を稼ぐためにゲームを作りましたって印象。 良いゲームなら課金もするから、まずはゲーム体験を味合わせてくれ。まじで。 ### 1/5 — Ads out of control *2024-08-27* This is a fun and interesting game. But the ads are insane. The game will show you ads basically as fast as your device will load them. There are full screen video ads almost every other transition screen, after every boss, and offered as bonuses. Even if you turn down an ad bonus, the game will still show you an ad. They even fit banner ads into the bottom of cutscenes. ### 1/5 — Obnoxious ad scheme *2024-08-20* There might be a neat game here if I could try plying it without interruption. Sadly, this is one of those games where you can choose to not watch ads for rewards or boosts and then the game will force you to watch an ad anyways. Why bother asking the player what they want if you’re just going to ignore it? Shameful behavior. ### 2/5 — 광고가 매우 많아요 *2026-05-15* 거의 한 판 할 때마다 두 세번은 나오는듯요 비교적 타게임의 비해 현질이 싼 것 같긴 하다만 무과금분들에게는 별로 추천드리지 않아용 ### 2/5 — 広告が…… *2026-01-25, version 1.1.5* バカスカ広告が出てきてカスでした。それ以外は満点です ### 2/5 — 個人的にはイマイチ *2025-04-05* 課金済。 メイジが個人的にはあまり面白く無い上、追加カードも微妙に感じた。 シンプルに前作の方である程度完成されていたので...。 メイジも要素だけ増やして面白さに繋がっていない印象。 また有料コンテンツが散らばりすぎている。 前作は600円程度を1つ買えば十分だったが、今作は広告削除、カスタム•ルーレット、高難易度が別々。 難易度も変に高い。非常に分かりにくいステータス（バフ）があり、いちいち読み込まないといけないストレスが増加。 逆に追加カードに爽快感があるものは無い。 ゲーム内通貨パックが前作とほぼ変わらないのは残念すぎる。 メイジは要らないから、純粋にカードを増やしてくれれば良かった。 ストーリーも分かるような分からないような。メインを進めて敵対した後も、個人で会った時に普通に会話が進むのはどうなの？ パークシステム（加護）は良かった。 前作をやり込んだせいで今作がイマイチになってしまった。おそらくメイジが楽しめるかどうかであると思う。 ### 2/5 — Just sad. *2024-11-03* They literally force you to give them your data after you keep playing. They want to sell you targeted ads, so they collect your data. It’s sad. The ratings are obviously paid for. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 갓겜 *2026-07-23* 광고에 홀려서 해봤는데 진짜 재밌네요... 강추 ### 5/5 — 不错 *2026-06-17, version 1.1.7* 清新简洁，很喜欢这个风格 ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-05-24* Amazingly made game that’s addictive and hyper super fun ### 5/5 — Awesome as always. *2026-05-03, version 1.1.7* Awesome as always. Thank You! ### 5/5 — 意外に頭使う！ *2026-04-02, version 1.1.6* ある程度慣れてくるとめちゃくちゃ楽しいし深みが増していく ### 5/5 — 넘 재미있음! *2026-03-07* 이거 시리즈에요?? ### 5/5 — 神 *2026-02-14, version 1.1.5* 面白すぎる ### 5/5 — 진짜 초갓겜 *2026-01-30* 광고는 그냥 현질로 없애면 되고, 현질 안한다 해도 광고가 그렇게 나오는건 아니라서 할만함. 그리고 스킨같은것도 막 비싼것도 아니고 다이아? 같은걸로 살수있어서 솔직히 말하자면 이건 해봐야할 게임임. ### 5/5 — 可愛い絵柄が素敵！ *2026-01-28, version 1.1.5* キャラクターのデザインがすごく可愛い！それに反してストーリーが重厚感のある雰囲気でギャップが良い。頭を使った戦闘が楽しい！ ### 5/5 — 한 턴 끝날때마다 오류 발생 *2025-12-30* 한 턴 끝나면 다음 턴 상대 카드 설명도 안보이고 내 카드가 전부 회색으로 보여요 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
