What a waste
I’m in love with this game ever since it came out
This self installed. I did not install this
A fun romp, but deeply flawed.
I initially had fun with this game for the year+ that I had it. It’s possible to automate so much of the gameplay that it’s essentially an idle game, and you can end up spending most of your time doing side tasks to gather the resources you need to power up your squad of Valkyries, but I was okay with all of that. Power up the ladies as best you can, let them loose, and see how far they can go.
The problems started when I found myself failing mission after mission even though I thought I was keeping up with resource-gathering pretty well. It got to a point where I was just beating my head against a wall, going nowhere, and very little seemed to help. It was becoming less and less fun. Also, the power levels didn’t seem to make sense. I’d defeat an opponent with 15M more power, but then immediately lose to an opponent with 15M less power. I could gain 14M more power in a single session, but it didn’t seem to make much difference at all. The same enemies I couldn’t defeat at the start I still couldn’t defeat at the end. It looked like I was making decent progress, watching the numbers go up, but finding that I was ultimately going nowhere was frustrating and discouraging.
But, of course, I knew what the problem was. This game’s deepest flaw. This game may be free-to-play on the surface, but at its core it’s a pay-to-win game, and I was unwilling and (more importantly) unable to pay hundreds and hundreds of dollars to buy the resources I needed to get to the power level I was apparently supposed to be at to make any significant headway in my progress. I guess I’m just not allowed to enjoy the game as much as the whales do.
(Another thing is that apparently this game is PVP as well, but I was only interested in the single-player content. So, I guess I just wasn’t playing the game right. How dare I play a game the way I want to play it?)
The final straw was that, over the past week, there were four instances of me using the blue gems to buy some resources only to find the game took my gems and gave me nothing in return. So, now I was getting either glitched or cheated out of the resources I legitimately bought with in-game currency. Nope. To hell with this. I’m done. Uninstalled.
And it’s a damned shame, too, because I really liked this game. What’s worse is that this isn’t even the first game that has done this. I never wrote a review for Galaxiga, but the same thing happened with that game, too. I think I’m developing a grudge against gacha and pay-to-win games.
This problem could have been alleviated if there were a reward system for watching ads. I don’t know about anyone else, but I would have been willing to sit through a handful of ads if I got significant rewards (and the odds of getting rare/powerful items temporarily getting a massive boost) for watching them. I’d come back to this game if the devs added that, and I felt the rewards were good enough. But, as of now, I’m walking away because I don’t want to beat my head against a wall anymore.
3 stars for the game itself, but no more than that for all the ways pay-to-win and gacha mechanics ruin it.
Can we get a little diversity?

Downhill spiral
-No new or meaningful updates in over 3 months.
-At least 1/2 of end game items that are shown have no way to obtain them.
-“end game” Valkyrie’s will cost you almost 1,200$ to acquire, and not even worth it without upgrading them, which will run you… wait for it… ~42,000$ USD.
-Current end game revolves around the tier down from the highest tier valkyries (yellow in color), which in the most recent update, had their ability to be acquired (aside from 3) locked behind a pay wall as well.
Full review:
Back when I started playing this game, there was nothing that you could not acquire with time. You could save the in game currency, which was plentiful, and achieve your goal. It used to be a pay to get ahead, now it’s a pay if you want to play. You used to be able to acquire the “end game” Valkyries through events (and I’m talking the yellow tier here not the red, as to date there is 1 person in the entire game who has upgraded a red tier Valkyrie to 3 stars out of 5). The most recent update removed the ability to even acquire “yellow” tier, forcing you spend almost 200$ to get their shards. Understand that if you’re a new player, no amount of time or build effort is going to allow you to achieve what other players have without opening your wallet. You’ve been effectively sealed out of the late game by a paywall that no one else had to deal with before you.
Additionally, the devs hid their intentions of a server merge behind making the game feel more populated, when the real reason was to reduce their server costs. They fully intend on letting this game die and every day that a once free feature turns into a monetization point proves their intent. Which is to grab your attention for 3-4 months, trick you into spending, then never adding any sort of content for the late game (while making you now pay money to find that out)
Understand that there is no one working on this game anymore. It’s a pay pig for the company that created it, and they just enjoy receiving $$$ from whales. You need not look any further than recent update notes, which are copy and pasted every “update” to see that. Not to mention their official page on Facebook is still posting summer hashtags…
Trust me, don’t invest your money, or time into this game. As soon as the whales stop paying, it will cease to exist. And the whales are already leaving in troves.
Dead Game
Greedy game developers
money. Otherwise you can’t level up unless you leave your phone ON the game running in the background all night and day, to make ANY level increase. The greed of this game’s developers is disgusting.
Don’t waste your time or money
갑자기 들어가지지가 않아요 ㅠㅠ
Worst game and company ever
The worst part, which I question the legality of is they only give new features to the new servers with new players who apparently spend the most money. There for if you are an old player, you don’t get the latest features. Therefore not all servers have the same games??? Hands down the worst game ever. Stay away from the game and stay away from this awful company
update- the developer just had a cheesy nonsensical reply thats not related to the issue i pointed out. so they give the impression that they really dont care about the game. their discord is radio silient as well. no dates about the games features or bug fixes for months
Pay to Play Experience = 0 value
Top Games customer service is often tardy and all lip service. No value given to loyalty, just hoping you’ll keep spending money with them.
If I could give negative stars about my experience with this game developer I would.
Take your time and money elsewhere.
Bon mais redondant.

Started off great, ended terribly
Pay to play trash
Fun,but DON’T purchase items !
I shared screenshots that demonstrated that either the items were not working or they had a number of obvious cheat loopholes. However, they excused it as being a problem with the game not “displaying” information properly. I then shared that there is no evidence that the purchased items even worked. They could not demonstrate that either.
They refuse to refund the purchases as they state I received the items, even though the items do not function as advertised.
