### 5/5 — Good game

*2026-03-02, version 2.3.41*

Slow start but strong finish

### 5/5 — Too short

*2026-01-15, version 2.3.41*

The game is amazing. The only downside is that I 100 percented the game in 3 days.

### 5/5 — Very underrated!

*2025-10-13, version 2.3.41*

This is a great game! It controls very well, and has a great atmosphere/charm to it. Solid, satisfying action gameplay. Very few ads in the game, only if you want to double the coins you earn in a level/get bonuses. In app purchases aren’t required and game can be completed without them. Only thing is that I wish the game was longer, as I had a great time! The game is free, so I can’t really complain, but would love to pay for a longer game experience. Definitely give this game a whirl!

### 5/5 — 神作

*2025-08-20, version 2.0.52*

游戏剧情非常丰富。

### 3/5 — huh

*2025-06-07, version 2.0.52*

ok I get it, the betrayal fight is supposed to be hard but can you at least add some checkpoints? Like right after the spinning part? Plus that boss uses both of my mains so it's insanely hard, do you mind if u add checkpoints in that fight? I can't get past that, otherwise, I would play the game absolutely more frequently. I lov this game but I just can't get past that level, thanks

### 5/5 — So super duper fun really u should download this game am telling ya

*2025-05-09, version 2.0.41*

So fun I love the chapter 2 and the chapter 3 the final boss is so fun! Yup u should give it a try for reals just download the game right now! Now now now!

### 4/5 — BUG

*2025-05-03, version 2.0.41*

Excellent game! But it didn't record my achievements successfully!!! Made me so sad...... I firmly confirm that i have connect to the Internet, because i could use cloud save. Besides, i successfully purchase full game. Hope fixed this bug fast!

### 5/5 — Wow

*2024-11-14, version 2.0.41*

I love this game the pixel art style adds to this being simple but there is some secrets and dialogue that make me feel as though this is real this is the best I have played this game for a long time always waiting for more and this game got its rightful ending 

 BUT in circus and Cerberus dragon you could find secret extra treasure when I went to re-fight them for new game + I looked in the usual places and tried to see if you guys moved it but it was taken out completely (those are 2 of my favorite bosses I love the circus and Cerberus they add too the lore and have a complexity to them that makes it fun and hard at the same time) also in other bosses (demon king in memory/traitors) there where some things that you would get for waiting I also wondered where they went especially in demon king memory that page added to the pieces of lore.

Other then that I love this game I hope you guys would make more games seeing as you only have 2 I’d like to see what comes next because this game is great. :)

### 5/5 — New update I like it

*2024-11-05, version 2.0.6*

At first there wasn’t much Contant, but after the new update, it’s really fire five out of five

### 5/5 — Fun

*2024-10-16, version 1.6.18*

Enjoyed this game.
