### 1/5 — Pay2Win

*2025-01-19, version 1.5.5*

If you thought supercell was bad about the price of stuff in game just wait til you see the price in this game.

### 1/5 — Terrible waste of time

*2025-01-06*

It’s a fun game at first. Kinda the same as rush royale, which is also the problem. You can IMMEDIATELY just buy packs at $60USD that makes you be able to freely skip a huge part of the grind. Co-op is majority just bots that ruin the match because they are useless. That’s on top of only getting 5 co-op chances a day unless you watch an ad. You NEVER get any good cards out of the grind. 100% have to buy them. The game freezes/glitches all the time. Lord forbid you turn up/down the volume or get a text message or something, prepare for the game to just lose its mind. 

TLDR: Pay to win. Game time is limited as you have to watch ads to play more. No update in over 5 months, and it shows. Game had great potential but has been turned into a “buy everything or don’t play” so the game is dead.

### 1/5 — Got banned

*2025-01-02, version 1.5.5*

Can’t see playing this game again after getting banned from playing co-op for a week for inactive play when I wasn’t inactive, but maybe you can look at the match I was playing immediately before I was banned so you don’t do this to anyone else.

### 1/5 — Underwhelming units, Trash RNG

*2025-01-01, version 1.5.5*

The units are exactly that, totally underwhelming and the RNG is appalling. Worst RNG I have ever seen and I’ve played ALOT of games based on it. Also the game lags out every 10 or so minutes and crash’s every 20-30 minutes. Frustrating and totally unoptimised. And the price of the packs is WAY EXPENSIVE!! A very poor attempt to copy rush Royale, epic fail. Uninstall.

### 1/5 — Peccato

*2024-12-03*

Senza senso che si venga bannati per inattività in coop se si ha il blackjack. Sarebbe anche un bel gioco ma così proprio non ci siamo

### 5/5 — Good Game

*2024-11-29, version 1.5.5*

I am happy with the new matching system. I have seen some untrusted reviews, it is true that game has been changed and it is harder now to get Legendary units. There’s some options to get legendary units:
1. Buy in app if you don’t want to wait
2. Play Co-Op and save coins(from time to time you can buy a legendary unit for 40.000 coins), for every level passed on Co-op you get some keys(40 keys to open a chest,where is a small chance 0.1% to get a legendary unit).
For developers: it should be in game an option where you cab write an idea. For example: on the main screen a chat where players can interact. Some tournaments for coins or chests(buy in 100-1000 coins 4-6-8+ players, first 2 places to get rewards or some tournaments with prizes in gems to be able to play often that 100 gems buy in for a chance to get a legendary unit after 12 wins. It takes like 2 weeks to save 100 gems. 
P.S. I have tried some games similar with this one, this is the best. I gave them 1 star a year ago, now they deserve maximum.

### 3/5 — Co op

*2024-09-11, version 1.5.5*

Why put a cap on co op though

### 1/5 — 0.5 stars

*2024-07-23, version 1.5.4*

This is the worst game I have ever played, I was a leaderboard player but in less than 1hour I’ve gone down an arena and a half because my units are doing basically no damage even tho my deck hasn’t changed…

### 2/5 — Unbalanced money grab

*2024-07-14*

Game is extremely unbalanced. Over half the time you get paired against “real players” with legendary units so don’t ever expect to be able to beat them and when you do “win” a match it seems like it’s most likely against a bot that is meant to keep you engaged and playing. Unless you plan on dropping some cash on this don’t expect to have any real fun or progress. Sad to see another game where the new units they release are completely broken out the door. Shame on these devs.

### 1/5 — Tutorial

*2024-07-12*

Não consigo terminar o tutorial, o jogo não deixa eu invocar unidades para continuar
