Very reminiscent of World of Warcraft, but they took all the worst parts and made them cornerstones of the game. Grinding gear, low drop rate crafting mats, dailies, and general “busy work” slow things to an absolute crawl after a certain point. Character progression both in terms of star rating and leveling sky rockets in later tiers making it impossible to clear even normal dungeons without days and days of idling and gathering resources to up your rosters stats/abilities/items. A lot of these choices were very clearly designed to get you to spend money. Which I do understand is required to make the game profitable, however it’s also a pretty poor system and the cost far outweighs an actual MMO. It’s really a shame because in the early stages of the game I thoroughly enjoyed devising strategies or raid groups that would allow me to defeat bosses without just being gear checked into infinity. Even bugged fights like Demon Warden challenged me, but also pushed me to wipe on the boss a few times until I had it on farm. All in all it is a fun way to kill time, but the monetary requirement becomes heavily apparent once they’ve teased you with the raid content. In order to continue having fun you have to dole out some pretty serious cash. Seems like they took the old carrot on a stick that Blizzard used for years and gave it steroids, which isn’t very fun after a while. ### 4/5 — Room for improvements *2022-05-08* This game is generous, definitely a new play style for me. Excited to see how this game updates and evolves into further versions of itself . ### 2/5 — Reset *2022-05-02* I like this game a lot but I couldn’t sign in for a couple days and when I logged back in it reset my account linked to my Apple. I spent about $40 bucks had some nice built characters and it’s just gone. ### 1/5 — Great game, one thing that ruins it all. *2022-03-18* Energy system. I despise when a game limits how much you can play, especially when there’s a way to pay for more play. Hope you all change your mind, still a good game but i can’t get past this. ### 3/5 — Tier mechanic is lame *2022-03-01, version 1.0.7* See tittle ### 3/5 — Poor character responsiveness other limits *2022-02-26* Fun for about a day then it’s energy limited. Moving you characters is ridiculously cumbersome. Good idea poorly executed. ### 1/5 — Poor *2022-02-23, version 1.0.6* Awesome concept, poorly executed…too many energy systems and constant need to farm multiple items…drains all your premium currency and then your wallet ### 4/5 — Original idea but needs work *2022-02-20* The good: Variety of characters Funny, witty writing Captures the MMO experience The bad: Frequent audio issues / poor equalizer Difficulty ramps up unevenly / unbalanced I’ve been playing for about 2 weeks now and came to the conclusion that I spend more time farming and auto playing than learning the mechanics for the bosses. While this isn’t necessarily a bad thing for this type of game, to really capture the essence of the MMO genre, it needs to make players feel like a level can be cleared without having the Best in Stat items and can push through will skill alone. Unfortunately, you won’t find that here as many bosses are locked due to gear level, and if you do manage to get the gear, you’ll still be destroyed due to your team not canceling their skills to move out of the boss attack. This game is fun, and I had even envisioned making a game like this in the past so I am really supportive of the idea. However, it needs some balancing tweaks, and an incentive to not auto farm and learn the mechanics (maybe increased drops?). ### 4/5 — Great game just needs a little work *2022-02-19* I’ve been playing this game for two weeks and I’m already level 50, I enjoy the game a lot but there is one big problem, you run out of energy fast and I find myself spending 150 then another 150 then it’s jumps to 300, I spend all my gems just to get one day full of raiding, it’s kinda sad I have to spend 1000 gems just to keep up with the games level system, other than that the game truly is fun and unique, 4 stars, -1 for the 3000 gems I just spent to upgrade one hero’s armor ### 5/5 — MMO nostalgia *2022-02-09* The intro to this game brought back SO much nostalgia from my old mmo days. This game definitely takes a great take on that. Thus far the character diversity has been good, gameplay is fun, and the community has been nice. I’m sad that there are so few reviews for this game. It’s definitely worth a try, especially if you used to or continue to play mmo’s. Also it’s a plus that I haven’t had to deal with advertisements thus far. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — broken *2025-03-14, version 1.1.0* just downloaded the game and it repeatedly prompts: could not retrieve game version. try again. can't play the game ### 1/5 — Remove it *2025-02-22, version 1.1.0* Take it off the app store if it doesn’t work… ### 1/5 — Won’t start *2024-11-25, version 1.1.0* I wish I could give a good review. The logo and white screen appear. It seems to be loading something. Then an error message appears: Version Check Failed Could not retrieve version from info. Please check connection and reload game. I restarted the game and still not working. I deleted the game and reinstalled. Still not working.

Keeps giving me the version check error and crashing. ### 1/5 — Idk why but… *2024-06-25* It won’t let me get in the game because it says check your internet connection or version check failed and i just got this game so one star but if you guys could fix it then i would really appreciate it.

Lots of potential *2022-06-29, version 1.1.0* Very fun game. ### 5/5 — Very fun *2022-05-13* Game mechanics are very well thought out and nothing I have encountered requires you to spend. You can though and get access to things quicker. Overall great experience and worth going back to time and again. ### 5/5 — Very fun and addicting *2022-03-31* First off, I’d like to say that I have never written a review for anything. This game surely deserves one. It’s an amazing game and I cannot stop playing. The characters are fun, the abilities are awesome and there is so much content. You can spend money to speed up certain things but you don’t need to spend any money at all. The achievement system in the game rewards you with a ton of gems so as long as you’re not wasting them then you should be ok. Now I must say it will be a grind but it’s so worth it when you see how strong your characters get. Also the game is somewhat time gated so you won’t be playing it all day unless you use gems to get more energy which is nice because I definitely don’t want to sit on a game all day. Once you spend all your energy you have to wait for it to accumulate again but it doesn’t take long which is nice. I log in a few times a day and always have something to do or check. Definitely check this game out if you’re on the fence about downloading it! ### 5/5 — Raid Boss A Guilds Jounet *2022-03-21* This game has a very simple interface that houses a ton of stats. It’s refreshing. A little more than an afk fighter but easy to work with and much is self explanatory. It will take only a minutes to get comfortable with the game and it over next few weeks it unravels itself to you. Lots of fun. Thanks ### 5/5 — MoreProudJaina *2022-03-02* This is a great game with fun mechanics that will certainly remind many of WOW raiding. Lady Jaina Proudmoore is repping it! The game starts off fairly simple and with basic “don’t stand in the red mechanics” and then gains complexity. Gearing is pretty fun and has need-or-greed rolls for equipment drops. The only challenge is after a while you only log in to spend energy and resources for a few days while gearing for next boss. The bosses are gear locked and there isn’t a whole lot to do outside of a few daily quests. This is a wonderful free to play game. ### 5/5 — Game is fire 🔥🔥 *2022-02-19* I don’t write reviews AT ALL on ANYTHING. I love this game man. As a kid i played WoW and Elder Scrolls online and this game is like playing as everyone but your guiding them all. Im really into this game and i like the fact i can role play with myself and just nerd out. Definitely give the game a try if you were ever or still are a MMORPG fan! ### 5/5 — Loving this game. *2022-02-18, version 1.0.6* Actually a really underrated and fun game ### 5/5 — Nice *2022-02-12, version 1.0.6* A very awesome game ### 5/5 — Imagine you’re… *2022-02-11* Playing wow. But instead of having guildies, you’re multi boxing all your toons. This is amazing. I highly recommend you play this for some nostalgia and high class gaming. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
