I was considering buying the ultimate version of the game because I was having a pretty solid time with it and now I’m not sure it’s worth it. I was able to grind out enough premium currency to get the class I wanted to play and then focus on that class and just accept that I would lose a lot. I was able to get a good run going finally get a couple of decent equipment. I had to pause the game and put my iPad into sleep mode where the game crashed I think and when I started the game up again, everything was gone. And a game where you can dive many times in order to just get one run that works kind of well that’s a problem and to add salt to the wound. I got a reminder that in the ultimate edition, you can save the game and come back to it. And I think that is my biggest problem here you have to pay real money in order to have a basic save feature so that when the game hiccups you might not lose everything. Basic game design should indicate that if your game is not stable enough to come back from being paused, and the device being put into a sleep mode without ruining the players experience that the same function should not be a premium cost. Of course I’ve seen the micro transactions for more premium currency to unlock more things. So not only would you need the ultimate edition for basic functionality of the game not even getting into the basic internal mechanics that do not work without premium currency unless you pay them for the ultimate. I don’t have any faith that this games ultimate edition will be worth it because I truly believe that this game is designed solely as a cash grab. Disappointed I thought there might’ve been something here and I was almost ready to give them some money until I realized that they monetary guided even basic saving functions to a game that cannot run proper. This is a huge problem in this kind of game where you’re doing a rogue light your character has one life and lives and dies based on the equipment they’re able to find. To lose everything you’ve worked for because the game itself for God that you had a run going is so disheartening that I don’t know that I’m going to play anymore. You have been warned ### 5/5 — Впечатления об игре *2026-02-22* Дорогие разработчики я искренни благодарю вас за такую единственную и не повторимую игру. Механика игры заслуживает отдельной похвалы и в целом игра получилась славной. Большое спасибо) ### 5/5 — Issue in Chinese *2026-01-20, version 1.38.1* When will the Chinese be released? Chinese players really like it. ### 5/5 — Resenha master *2026-01-08* Esse jogo é tão resenha e tão bom que você nem percebe que tá na versão gratuita do jogo é incrível ### 5/5 — Great improvement *2025-12-15, version 1.38 Hotfix* I’ve had the game for about two years I think and there’s a lot of improvement already. Looks great and I love the choice of three option level up. It’s great. There needs to be ads out for this game though. ### 3/5 — Ultimate not available? *2025-11-21, version 1.38 Hotfix* Why is the ultimate not available in US? This is such a good game! ### 5/5 — Why cant i get ultimate? *2025-11-13, version 1.38 Hotfix* I love the game but for some reason when i want to go and actually purchase ultimate edition it says its blocked in my country. ### 5/5 — Fun game *2025-11-09, version 1.38 Hotfix* It’s a great RPG. Fun and challenging. ### 5/5 — Bring Ultimate back. Ill pay extra if I have to! *2025-11-01, version 1.38 Hotfix* Please devs! ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-10-24, version 1.38 Hotfix* The overall gameplay is great, the controls are alright, and the progression is a bit slow but it’s still great. An inventory sorting system would be cool as well, to sort potions, weapons, cloths, ecs ### 4/5 — When does the ultimate become available on the app store *2025-10-24, version 1.38 Hotfix* I had it on my android couldn’t put it down in my spare time ### 5/5 — A very good game. *2025-10-23, version 1.38 Hotfix* Overhall very good. I like the mechanics and classis rogue like rpg. Waiting for ultimate version to be available again. Please answer when it will be available if you can devs. ### 2/5 — Why can I not buy it *2025-10-23, version 1.38 Hotfix* It’s fun to play but I can not get the ultimate version to buy? ### 5/5 — Same as “flaw peacock” *2025-10-23, version 1.38 Hotfix* I’ve downloaded the game before and have installed ultimate edition before. But now when I try(I live in the us and did before with no issues) it says it’s not available in my region, another user “flaw peacock” had the same issue but it was from a year ago. TAKE MY MONEY! Let me have ultimate. I live in the US so make it happen please, other than that this game is one of my favorites on mobile. ### 5/5 — Best mobile roguelike by far *2025-10-19, version 1.38 Hotfix* These devs took all the parts of progression games we like and put it into one game. Super in-depth system that rewards you with individual ways to play. I’d pay for the ultimate pack to support these guys if was available in Canada. Extremely underrated ### 5/5 — Amazing but… *2025-10-07, version 1.38 Hotfix* There’s a glitch were it makes my attack keep going so I can’t move or dash nor change abilities but overall it’s a really fun game so keep up the good work ### 5/5 — we need Chinese *2025-10-04, version 1.38 Hotfix* ！！！！please ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Lost all gear when loading back into game even though I have premium *2025-10-24, version 1.38 Hotfix* Loading the game back up after not playing since yesterday. Poof! Gear and pet is gone. I’m still on the floor I left off on just completely cleaned out inventory. Is this common and can it be fixed? ### 1/5 — Баги в игре *2025-10-11, version 1.38 Hotfix* Разработчик находится в алкокоме , попался уровень , где невозможно было пройти до лестницы , все стены были заблокированы и их невозможно было уничтожить . Пришлось удалять персонажа с отличным снаряжением . Разработчику написал , приложил скриншоты . 3 неделя игнорит . Вывод , наркоман и алкоголик ### 1/5 — good game but *2025-08-30, version 1.38 Hotfix* but money.. ### 1/5 — Disparition de stuff *2025-05-21* J’étais vraiment fan du jeu et j’y jouais régulièrement puis en laissant le jeu éteint trop longtemps tout mon équipement a disparu, dommage ### 1/5 — The necromancer *2025-04-05, version 1.37.4* I genuinely think it’s stupid the mage class is way stronger then the 200 gems class necromancy class ### 1/5 — Paywall *2024-10-14, version 1.37.1* You have to pay to save and quit ### 1/5 — Really rough *2024-07-31, version 1.36.1* Good idea but pooly excuted. Really rough hitboxes and a really steep difficulty curve. ### 1/5 — Bad *2024-07-07, version 1.36.1* Pointless and repetitive ### 1/5 — Awful controls and UI *2024-04-18, version 1.36.1* this game has the worst controls and a cluttered ui. the balance of this game is heavily geared against you and even for paying for a game i shouldn't be expected to buy gems with real money to male the grind "easier". ### 1/5 — Feels broken and unbalanced *2024-03-23, version 1.36.1* Use to enjoy this game but had lost my old save, feels really bad to play now. From low xp to hardly any item drops, first floor putting me vs several 15+ lvl zombies that just kill you with too many poison rats rushing you… just a bad experience. Feels like someone rebalanced the game in the worst way possible in the past two years. Garbage experience. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best mobile RogueLike! Can’t wait to get the ultimate edition/version 🔥 *2026-08-19, version 1.38.3.1* This is the best/only RogueLike I’ve ever played and I’d highly recommend it if you’re looking for a good mobile RogueLike game. ### 5/5 — Топчик *2026-08-07, version 1.38.3* Отличная игра, было бы хорошо визуализировать гильдию, вместо квадратов сделать реальную карту гильдии с домами или вообще сделать локацию гильдии где можно будет побегать и посмотреть на все постройки, которые я прокачиваю. Очень буду рад таком апдейту ### 5/5 — Best. Game. Ever. *2026-08-06, version 1.38.3* This is the best phone game out there… period. Love the dungeon crawler and it’s fun to build up a character… I’m still learning a few things and learning how to unlock stuff… but it’s been super fun! ### 5/5 — Great roguelike game *2026-07-31, version 1.38.2* Been playing this on and off and love this game immensely. The random drops and challenging obsidian tower makes it challenging and fun ### 5/5 — Lotta potential to this game *2026-06-30, version 1.38.2* Lotta potential to this game ### 5/5 — Лучший в своем роде *2026-05-28, version 1.38.2* Лучший рогалик в который я когда либо играл плюс снг разработчик которых и так осталось мало так что таких нужно поддерживать ### 5/5 — honestly amazing *2026-05-25, version 1.38.2* I just started playing and it’s actually pretty fun I got this coat that lets me heal if I sit in blood ( works on my own blood ) so if I stand in a corner with the coat on I can tank everything except bosses I still have to try on those but this game is honestly addictive my friend said if it could have multiplayer that he would give it a play so over 10/10 would play again ### 5/5 — Muito bom!!! *2026-05-06* Muito bom!!!! ### 5/5 — GOLD *2026-04-05, version 1.38.2* You can tell this is a passion for the dev. They have steadily pumped out update after thankless update. It’s very clear they are dedicated and passionate about this game. It’s one of my ultimate favorites for iOS in my top 5 of all time. If you see this dev whoever you are man I hope you’re living the dream. I hope one day we can see a 2. ### 5/5 — Wee Gem *2026-03-11, version 1.38.1* I’ve played this game before and really enjoyed it I’ve came back to it just for a run and again I’m hooked defo could be more to it but the gameplay is fun and exciting online would be amazing --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
