### 3/5 — Not great without WiFi

*2026-08-09, version 5.7.1*

Awesome mobile game but if you’re not on a WiFi network you can’t access any online features, even including your equipment etc. The game doesn’t consider being on data as an online connection which makes it impossible to enjoy if you’re not at home.

### 5/5 — O jogo vai ter atualização?

*2026-07-19*

Quase um ano sem uma atualização nova

### 1/5 — Game Crashes

*2026-07-07, version 5.7.1*

Right as I was about to hit a 50K combo while fighting a boss, the game crashed. Relaunched the app, selected “resume battle”, and of course it doesn’t pick up exactly where I left off. Instead, it gives the enemy an additional move against me. So I hit the boss again, start getting close to 50K combo again, and the game crashes AGAIN. Clearly a bug they need to fix. I’m running an iPhone 17 Pro Max with about 50% free storage space. No reason for this game to be crashing and even more insulting that when resuming a battle they give the enemy an extra move against you.

### 1/5 — 酷い

*2026-07-04*

他の方のコメントにもあるように、本当に時間を無駄にするだけなのでおすすめしないです。
1ステージのプレイ時間が無駄に長いわりに順調にコンボが決まると十中八九途中で処理落ちするし、再開した瞬間さっきまでのダメージがなかったことになり、何故か開始から敵のターンになっていてそれまでの戦績虚しく即死させられるし、もはや運でしか勝てないような意味の分からないゲームバランスです。

楽しいのは最初だけです。
そもそものバランスがおかしいので課金してまでガチるメリットはないかと思います。

処理落ち諸々散々指摘されているのに数年経っても直らなかったり、イベント等の更新も年単位で止まっているのを見る限りかなり放置されている状態かと思うので、サービスの存続自体疑わざるを得ません。

**Developer response:** Hello, we sincerely apologize for the negative experience you had in the game. We have received your feedback and have passed it on to the development team. We will continue to improve our game to provide players with a better gaming experience.

### 1/5 — Revenge boss

*2026-06-12, version 5.7.1*

The boss that grows stronger when you hit it is impossible to beat

### 5/5 — Abandoned

*2026-05-26, version 5.7.1*

This is such a great game that’s far more complex than it lets on. It’s now pretty much just dead with no new levels. Sad

### 1/5 — I need a refund

*2026-04-10, version 5.7.1*

Clearly you have no intent on ever updating this game!  I’ve been paying 9.99 a month for a very long time and feel that I should be reimbursed for 6 months of that.  If you knew the game wouldn’t continue there should have been a disclaimer to all the loyal fans!

### 4/5 — Pun

*2026-03-24*

Bien mais c’est incroyable faut mettre un système de club clan j’ai hâte d’avoir les prochaines mises à jour

### 1/5 — Absolutely Horrible

*2026-03-06, version 5.7.1*

Pay to win & RNG is all you’ll see. I think the game is genuinely against the player cause there’s no way that everything works against the player.

### 1/5 — ???? Where are You ????

*2026-03-04*

Where are you ??? Je reçois des notifications encore ? Mais il n’y a plus aucune mise à jour depuis que… ???? Vous faites quoi ? Je comprends pas le délire avec vos monstres moisis qu’on a marre de voir… vos différents game play qui n’évoluent pas depuis …. Xxxx années ?!? C’est du gâchis… ce jeu avait un bon potentiel… mais non seulement vous ne le faite plus évoluer… mais en plus vous nous prenez pour des c°n ??? Avec vos notifications qui servent à rien… bon ça rapporte plus assez de thune ??? Du coup vous êtes sur quoi maintenant ? C’est quoi la prochaine douille ? Oubliez pas que les joueurs sont votre principal source de revenu… faites bien votre boulot et on en arriverait pas la… trop gourmand….€$£¥ !!! Comment tuer l’âme d’un bon jeu…. A cause du management marketing pour le fric…. Naze
