Bug

After watch the ads for rewards there is a pretty high chance that the game will be shut down, really annoying please fix.
IOS 17.1 iPhone 13

パッケージソフト並みの価値あり

正直言って期待してませんでした、ごめんなさい。。

あれチュートリアルは?
キャラガチャとかないの?

って最初は思いました…

300km魔王倒して終わりの戦闘力がインフレしまくるだけのゲームだと思ってました…

ごめんなさい

チュートリアル不足で慣れるまではなんだこりゃでしたが

慣れてくると倍速は欲しくなるし

増えていくキャラと放置ゲームではない時間と選択の忙しさは音ゲーに近いものがあるくらい最高効率叩き出したくなる仕様が上手いなと思う

300kmクリアして
エンドロール見て衝撃
めっちゃ制作さんたち関わってた!

制作さんへの敬意を込めて?
広告カット課金
エインヘリアルガチャ解放からのやっと本番みたいなゲーム内容が展開
シナリオも増えて行く

900kmまでタイムアタック
10%の壁が厚い

スクリーンタイムを見たらすでに40時間

買い切りの下手なゲームより長く遊んでます…

1日数回、有償ダイヤやエインヘリアルもらえるガチャが広告見て引ける(広告カットしてからガチャ課金以上のダイヤを貰ってるので課金やすってなってます)

トータルで見ると割安感が半端ない…今ならAIで立ち絵とかいれちゃうんだろうけれど、時代を感じるキャラ絵もなんかいい

ということで楽しんでますので運営さんありがとうございます!!

Ads crashing, falling, or freezing on iPhone now aswell

The makers are very good about compensating for mistakes. Two stars. These two part ads are causing the lions share of the problems, specifically moving from one add to the next. Not that the end of the 2nd ad doesn’t lead to a freeze sometimes (if you get that far). Update 07/17/26 (evening): I’m on my friends newer phone again, ads are just as messed up, what has happened to this game! At least bring ad skip down to 10$! I’ll buy it and this problem (there are others still) will be “fixed”! Update 07/17/26 (morning): After changes were made to fix ads it seams to have had no change. I got 10-15 ads in row just now that were black screens except for an X so I luckily didn’t need to restart. Update 07/09/26: Tried the game on a friends newer iPhone with a two part ad that wouldn’t move on to the next ad without freezing. The whole reason I got a newer device was because this game almost never worked on my oldAndroid tablet device. It used to work on my old device but then it stopped. Now on my newer device there are predictable and repeatable crashes.. AND NOW ads keep crashing (It doesn’t crash the game it just crashes the ad)/falling. On the same producible ads by the way. (Heres an example of inconsistency: 4 ads in a row for “Rouge Max”(how appropriate) hewing tobacco. First one was a double ad, worked flawless. Second ad was the same one but after clicking skip, it crashed the ad. Third was the tobacco ad but by itself, click close at the end and got my reward.Fourth and final ad was the double again, and like the second time, clicked skip to next ad and it crashed the ad). Freezing on certain predictable ads as well, freezing so I can’t exit the ad without killing the game manually. Do I need to get ANOTHER new NEW device! I’d get the ad skip but it’s so so expensive compared to pretty much any other game I played. Actually it IS more expensive than any game I’ve played, WHEN IT’S ON SALE! Been playing this game since almost halfway through its first year, if I didn’t enjoy the story so much I’d be long gone. I remain for Elly.

FAQ

What is Rogue with the Dead: Idle RPG?

It's an original roguelike RPG where you command and power up troops on an endless, looping journey. The core mechanic is that what kills you makes you stronger, allowing you to progress further with each attempt.

How does the roguelike mechanic work in this game?

When you are defeated, you lose all your soldiers, money, and items, except for artifacts. You then have to start over, but the artifacts you collected make you stronger for the next run, embodying the roguelite principle of becoming stronger with each restart.

What are the main ways to power up my troops?

You can earn coins by defeating monsters and completing quests to strengthen your troops. Additionally, collecting artifacts provides permanent buffs, and you can gather ingredients to cook meals that enhance your soldiers' powers.

Can I play this game without constant attention?

Yes, the game is designed with idle mechanics in mind. Most of the gameplay can be played while idling, with soldiers fighting automatically. You can choose to wait and watch or join the battle yourself, but no annoying controls are required for core progression.

Is this game free to play?

The game is free to download and play, but it does feature in-app purchases and advertisements. These can be used to acquire items, enhance gameplay, or speed up progression.
