It's great. There's a few minor issues here and there, and one big issue at the end of the list. - the log in the arena (the one at the top-right, not the in-fight one) doesn't work. - items visually disappear from inventory when you upgrade them (but reappear after clicking to another page and back). - there are no tooltips for most things. - defenses don't seem to work well. Maybe this is just a skill issue, but I actually tested this in the tower (at tower lvl 20) by: resetting all my points; maxing out my basic defense; maxing out one relevant element's defense; and the spellcaster was still nearly one shotting me every time. This appears to be explicitly an issue with fighting spellcasters, as I'm annihilating everything else. Like I said, maybe a skill issue and I just don't understand how the game works, but, if that's the case and I'm twenty hours in, then there's definitely a distinct lack of in-game information causing my confusion. - My single biggest gripe: Level requirements. What a let down. Level requirements are (in every single game they have ever been in) nothing but an artificial progression brake — basically a crutch for developers who didn't feel like actually solving whatever pacing problem they percieve. This equates to forced-grinding, and it is not rewarding. If I made good choices and was able to make a powerful thing early, there is no greater gaming slap-in-the-face than being arbitrarily told I have to wait to use something I earned. Managed to grind for all those materials for that epic sword? "Too bad, you're 30 levels early..." <- Infuriating. Everything else is a minor issue, but this one might be the reason I put the game down and don't come back to it. ### 4/5 — Eh *2026-08-18, version 2.2.0* Fun game. Downside: crashes a lot. Not sure if it is still in beta or not ### 3/5 — Certo bugged *2025-09-24, version 2.0.1* Its a Nice game but its so bugged right now, the itens and the steps just disapers ### 4/5 — Good little game *2025-07-06, version 1.4.6* Buggy but still a lot of fun. ### 4/5 — Would be 5 stars. *2025-07-06, version 1.4.6* Sorry I just HATE the “steps” mechanic. Get rid of that hamstring and this is an addictive game. ### 5/5 — Fun and entertaining *2025-05-18* The game is fun, but it needs some work, it seems like the project was abandoned, no new updates in a while, but it has a lot of players online and the market is being updated constantly, I wish it had more things to do and more challenges to overcome, hopefully in near future, it’s still a few weeks or months of gaming fun to be had, still waiting on the smithing to be added and maybe more content in the future. ### 4/5 — Fun game, boring at end game. *2025-05-11, version 1.4.6* All the systems, combat, smithing, food to give steps, etc are all good and designed well to keep us in a “where can I go next” feeling, but once we have reached the furthest cave to explore.. that’s it. There’s nothing new for me to find, nothing new to craft, nothing else for me to do so I’m very sad to say it but I’ve “beaten” the game when I’m suppose to be able to endlessly explore and unfortunately the developer does not keep up with the game anymore so I would recommend this game, but don’t get super attached as it will fizzle out in about a month of solid gameplay. This is a perfect mobile game format which you pick up, do your quick daily tasks and then wait for your energy to regen. ### 2/5 — Beaucoup de modif nécessaire *2025-03-11, version 1.4.6* L’énergie limité est un gros frein au jeu, surtout le temps de remonter à fond (3h). Le système économique entre joueur est catastrophique, la difficulté des mobs est trop aléatoire, et ramène le même exp au même niveau, chaque craft peut être rapide ou long suite à la latence du jeu, pas de bouton « tout crafter » pour compenser, les recettes ne sont pas équilibrées (50 bois pour un casque en bois faut pas abuser) Bref le jeu a du potentiel mais il va falloir faire une grosse refonte pour que ce soit agréable d’y jouer. ### 3/5 — Непоганий середнячок *2025-03-10, version 1.4.6* В цілому гра прикольна, але швидко набридає. Однотипність і довгий розвиток ### 5/5 — Отлично *2025-02-25, version 1.4.6* Хорошая игра с довольно оригинальным геймплеем. Доната минимум и он незначительно аффектит игровой процесс, п2в отсутствует. Плюс еще есть живой рынок между игроками, что увеличивает социальную составляющую игры ### 5/5 — 잼있어요 *2025-02-10, version 1.4.6* 근대 한국어 패치좀 해주세요.한국어만 들어 오면 더 잘될 것 같은데 한국어 패치가 안돼서 아쉬워요. ### 5/5 — Addicted to the Steps *2025-01-02* It’s phenomenal, a lot of thought creativity and time went into making this. There’s a market Tower PVP, and a solid system for progression, farming, step after step. It’s a Diamond, take the first step of thousands🫡 ### 3/5 — Has potential but incomplete *2024-12-24, version 1.4.6* This game is quite an interesting RPG, with unique elements, like the stepping system, i.e. your turns are taken in steps and each step is either to attack, gather, mine or talk to an entity. There is a fairly robust crafting system, and numerous other functions under the hood. While the game is certainly captivating, there is a very annoying problem with error handling. If you do not have the right number of items in crafting (or for that matter anything that requires use of an item), the process involved in checking will crash and display an error. There is also a very problematic speed issue when performing any action, like its accessing the hosting server each time a check is being made. While these problems are not game breaking, it certainly feels like the game is incomplete. ### 3/5 — it’s getting there! *2024-12-12* The last update fixed many bugs that were fun blockers. changing my review accordingly! also the game is on the cusp of a 4 star review. i love the player market. i did get the subscription to the support the dev. looking forward to the next round of improvement’s. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Most annoying account setup ever *2025-07-01, version 1.4.6* I spent over ten minutes and I still never managed to get an account, it sent me to some third party site to set up an account to sync 2eb and game. So I did thst, then there was some annoying gotcha test which took forever. It was my understanding this was a text gsme, not some picture image matchingnfiasco to do, But after I managed thst, it insisted I then sign up to discord, which I do not have an account, only oprion was to cancel. So I tried logging in and my credentials from thst third party website apparently never took because of the discord cancel do I tried a second time, and then just gave up. I'd give zero starts but that isn't sllow3d. Stupidest dumbest most complicated setup to even get into the game, and don't get me started on the micro size keyboard and not the usual layout out of a keyboard, sigh, ### 1/5 — Problems *2025-05-03, version 1.4.6* Every time crafting broke and notification something wrong ### 1/5 — 비응신같은 게임 *2025-04-05, version 1.4.6* 레벨 7인데 레벨 3짜리 몹한테 계속 죽음 죽으면 돈 몇십원씩 잃는데 애초에 돈을 구할 방법도 많지 않음 대체 왜 하루에 진행할 수 있는 걸음 수가 정해져있는거임? ### 1/5 — Steps … *2025-01-02, version 1.4.6* What is the point of that ? Just let us play the game ? If we can’t even play then there is objectively no point giving for us giving a good review ### 1/5 — Buggy nightmare *2024-12-13* The game takes a day or so to really figure out. Once you learn how to gather potatoes and coal ore to make endless baked potatoes for energy you can play as long as you want, however the game is a buggy mess of problems. Enemies health bars just disappear sometimes which makes them immortal. It takes a while to learn spells and they sometimes just delete themselves with no explanation. The inventory system is nightmare. The player market bugs out and does all kinds of odd stuff. Gear doesn’t seem to do all that much. The user interface menus are wonky and there’s little to no explanation on what anything does or where and how to get it. It’s just a nightmare to play. Needs serious work. ### 1/5 — Проблема *2024-10-07, version 1.4.6* Пропали всі зібрані речі. Сумки стають порожні після кожного перезаходу в гру. Розберіться з багами і тоді буде хороша гра! ### 1/5 — Nerfed tower XP *2024-08-07, version 1.4.1* Went from getting 550exp in a tower boss fight to 150exp, nerfing our progress for no reason. ### 1/5 — Worst update *2024-08-07, version 1.4.0* Why was it necessary to make different window shapes for obols if you can insert any kind there anyway? There's such confusion there right now. Add the ability to simply remove them or replace them without replacing them with others. ### 1/5 — 强烈要求增加中文 *2024-07-19, version 1.3.6* 希望增加中文 ### 2/5 — Interesting but Lots of bugs *2025-05-04, version 1.4.6* It's an interesting idea and a good game, but there are a lot of bugs with Craft (didn't work for a while) Tower (infinite number of enemy health points after my spell rock volley) Pvp (also infinite number of enemy health points) Spell (they become closed at some point, even though I opened them) So delete after playing about 2h ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-08-10, version 2.2.0* I enjoy the game, the crafting system, random loot chance and stats upgrade system are all amazing. Play it, enjoy it. ### 5/5 — Exactly what it says *2026-08-02* This game is built perfectly as far as simple goes. No ads, no pushy micro transactions. You can genuinely pop in for ten minutes or step for hours. Pacing is good so far. The grind is satisfying, respects your time, and in fact encourages time away from the game. ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-07-11, version 2.2.0* I'm really enjoying this, please fix mining sound, every time hitting my ears ### 5/5 — This game is brilliant *2026-06-12, version 2.2.0* Its not pay to win...what else do you need to know. try it, youll like it. ### 5/5 — Every Growing *2026-06-07* I’ve played for nearly a week now, you can play at your own pace. And you don’t have to really fight monsters either. You can mine or gather herbs,etc. Focusing on other aspects. ### 5/5 — Very enjoyable & non P2W *2026-06-06, version 2.2.0* I tried this small indie game out and was incredible pleasantly surprised. The game is fun, respects your time, is actively developed and has a cool small community who all care about and enjoy the game. Fixes are quick and the dev is responsive. I’ve been playing daily for over a month and don’t plan to stop! ### 5/5 — Very good game *2025-10-28, version 2.0.2* Does the game support Russian? ### 5/5 — Fantastic game, can’t recommend enough. *2025-09-27, version 2.0.1* The game is made by a solo developer, so it isn’t perfect all the time. However, it is a perfect time killer. There’s absolutely no in game transactions that boost power like in other games, they’re purely optional. Some of the transactions are meaningful, but absolutely not necessary at all. If you like to grind for things and see the rewards that come with it, this is your game. Various builds you can play with, an active player market and player chat. The developer communicates regularly with the discord channel and takes recommendations, listens to feedback and works on bugs that are posted. The community is also super helpful and will sell, give or advise on anything you need. This is almost a perfect mobile game. ### 5/5 — Крутая фармилка с системой маркетплейса с живыми игроками *2025-09-05, version 1.4.6* Единственная проблема в игре — мало людей. Но комьюнити расширяется. Игра топ. Для общение по игре заходите в ТГ @pixelodyssey_ru ### 5/5 — Excellent Game *2025-05-27, version 1.4.6* Been on the hunt for something like this. As someone who has played countless rpgs and idle games, this is exactly what I was looking for! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
