What of it? I know who I am. (Although, I could have done without the characters who look and sound under-age.) 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. ### 4/5 — Can we get a little diversity? *2026-03-22, version 1.0.47* Fun game but as I collect Valkyries I’m disappointed that none of them even have a tan. It’s also extremely uncomfortable that a few of them are based on children. I know it’s a thing in anime but it’s still uncomfortable ### 2/5 — Extreme Pay-to-Win *2026-03-16* There’s barely a game here, it stars well enough but quickly devolves into extreme pay-to-win/progress territory without anything actually fun to do. And they recently(March 26) updated the game to make it even worse! I regret every single penny I spent on this, don’t play this, the only reason I’m not giving this a 1 star is because the visuals and the early game are ok **Developer response:** Thanks for sharing your thoughts. We strive for balance in our game, where different strategies can lead to success. Remember, power in-game can be limitless, and sometimes the most rewarding part is the experiences and friendships you make along the way. ### 3/5 — Bon mais redondant. *2025-12-08, version 1.0.41* Les graphiques et la musique ainsi que le son est très bien. Le problème en est un gros; ceux qui gagnent sont ceux qui payent très cher. Les autres sont des faire valoir. On a peu pour très cher. À titre d’exemple; je n’ai qu’un seul personnage SP après plusieurs mois de jeu. Ils sont accessibles qu’en payant plus de 150$ chacun. Et encore, tu ne fais que l’avoir, les up sont interminables et faut encore y mettre beaucoup d’argent. Il y a aussi une certaine redondance à affronter ces cheaters qui te battent même si tu es plusieurs millions plus (un 214M peut battre un 280M par exemple). Mais comme passe-temps c’est bien. Laissez les booster investir et visez le milieu de peloton. ### 1/5 — Worst game and company ever *2025-12-03, version 1.0.41* STAY AWAY!! The game is extremely predatory. The gatcha system is fixed at having to spend money to buy all items in an event instead of giving players a chance. But it is advertised as there’s a “chance” to win. 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 ### 1/5 — Started off great, ended terribly *2025-12-02, version 1.0.41* Originally started off as a promising game, but after repetitious bad decisions from developers and extremely lax disciplinary actions against cheaters, this game has been taken over by cheaters and bots. Also recent updates have depicted minors in "unsettling" manners to say the least, so if you don't want to land yourself on the alphabet soup watchlist, stay clear of this game. ### 2/5 — Pay to play trash *2025-12-02, version 1.0.41* The game was fun at first then I realized that if you want to improve you have to cough up tons of cash. So many characters and you really can’t get more than half unless you want to pay. Completely unplayable at this point and I played for over a year. Really disappointed. ### 2/5 — Fun,but DON’T purchase items ! *2025-11-24, version 1.0.40* The game is fun, but extraordinarily limited. I had a conversation with their support in-game regarding accounts blatantly cheating and they excused it as a “display” issue. However they had no way of demonstrating that purchased items were in-fact performing as advertised. 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. ### 1/5 — Don’t trust fake Reviews *2025-11-16, version 1.0.40* I played this game for 6 months. Over that time it became clearer how big of a scam the game is. Broken power systems that stop all forward progress and false rates that never give Jackpots. Do not trust the fake bot reviews ### 4/5 — Not loading *2025-11-10, version 1.0.39* Game won’t load, very frustrating for the money I spent, any resolution ? ### 1/5 — Expect a daily 1.9 GB update *2025-11-02, version 1.0.39* That seems really un necessary. Fix the game. ### 1/5 — Black screen after purchase *2025-10-28, version 1.0.38* Spent over 500 and after I purchased Haruka Mizuhara pack and after claiming her my characters stats glitched out so I restarted the app hoping it would fix only to run into a permanent black screen I’ve deleted and reinstalled the game and everything else works normally until I login to my account and the black screen persists so I had to contact apple for a refund since I’m not able to play and feel like I’ve been scammed ### 2/5 — Fun but buggy *2025-10-26, version 1.0.38* The game has a lot to do but get ready for days at a time where an update will cause it to be unplayable. There is a bug report channel in Discord but the devs never check it. You can play it if you want but do not spend any money on it. ### 1/5 — Alliance not showing *2025-10-09, version 1.0.35* The game has been good so far but for last couple of days no one joined my alliance. I started on fresh new server and my alliance is the strongest there but recently not a single person tried to join it even when we are at 28/50 people. When i look into “other alliances” i can see only another 2 but theres more of them and i have to directly type theyre name to find them. We are at the top ranks across whole game but people not joining anymore. What is the issue? Why people cant find and join my alliance? Its ruining it. Look into that issue. Iron Meteor Warzone 3, Warzone 1273, ingame name Antidota, alliance GodlikeRunners[GRE] If you gonna solve the issue i will surely change the rating. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — What a waste *2026-07-31, version 1.0.49* I enjoyed this game for too long. Then after the fun came a lack of updates. Each attempt at fixing bugs created more. At this point I had already spent money so I contacted about the bugs that bother me. Dev contacted asking for screenshots the list included every screen in the game. Then they closed the ticket. For a free game with $100 offers maybe don’t tell the customer that the game works fine and they just have to log out to fix the game after every interaction. Dev doesn’t care about the game and just wants the $$ for a half complete game and won’t even open the game to see if there are bugs. ### 1/5 — This self installed. I did not install this *2026-05-14, version 1.0.49* Watch your apps ### 1/5 — Cash grab *2026-03-07, version 1.0.47* Don’t bother. There is nothing to do at high levels and everything is designed to make you spend money. It takes 100s and sometimes 1000s to max the girls out to make you a top player. Recent changes made it even more expensive to finish the weekly sprints for rewards. ### 1/5 — Trash *2026-02-28, version 1.0.47* Cringe AI waifu trash, painfully long and boring unskippable cutscenes, dumb dialogue you have to spam your phone screen to skip, and after a few levels it becomes a completely different game. Even while you’re playing the only style of mission you actually came here for, they’re so excruciatingly easy and boring that you can essentially play it as an idle game, which they clearly know because about 5 minutes in they have you sitting there watching cringe AI anime chicks idle running at zombies. 0/10, don’t waste your time. ### 1/5 — Downhill spiral *2026-02-13, version 1.0.47* TLDR: -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. ### 1/5 — Dead Game *2026-02-09, version 1.0.46* No meaningful update in months. Supposed “bug fixes” but completely unnoticeable. All SP Valkyrie’s locked behind massive paywalls. Multiple “new Valkyries” added months ago and still have not even been made available for purchase, let alone gatcha pull. Like I said, dead game, abandoned by creators. ### 1/5 — Greedy game developers *2026-01-27, version 1.0.46* After a certain level they keep you stuck grinding to pressure you into spending 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. ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time or money *2026-01-24, version 1.0.46* The whole point of this game is to improve and increase your ranking in different leaderboards, but the developers will rug pull you. Any spots you gain can be undone whenever they want by sever transfers. They don’t tell you this and will do it without warning. Don’t waste your time or money on this game. ### 1/5 — Worst game and company ever *2026-01-22, version 1.0.46* STAY AWAY!! The game is extremely predatory. The gatcha system is fixed at having to spend money to buy all items in an event instead of giving players a chance. But it is advertised as there’s a “chance” to win. 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 ### 1/5 — Pay to Play Experience = 0 value *2025-12-12, version 1.0.42* Entertaining game but the various purchase packs provide very little value. Ie Mysterious Pumpkin packs provide more tickets for rigged games of chance. Valkyrie-centric packs provide very few shards to make an impact on the game. 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. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I’m in love with this game ever since it came out *2026-05-30, version 1.0.49* I just wish it was free because I’m broke. Oh well. ### 5/5 — fun waifu semi afk farm *2026-03-16, version 1.0.47* lol the screenshot on appstore does not fully show the actual graphic but it is a fun time killer game with good looking waifu. ### 5/5 — 갑자기 들어가지지가 않아요 ㅠㅠ *2026-01-24* 아침까지 들어가졌는데 삭제 했다가 다시 깔아서 들어가도 접속이 안 되네여 ### 5/5 — 惜しい！ *2025-11-15* 実に惜しいのが、この良コンテンツが恐らくごく一部の重課金層に偏っているだろうからである。 どれだけ新キャラを開発してもそれを戦力に上げれるのもその層の課金層だけ。 つまりせっかく開発した新キャラも浸透しないまま廃れていってしまう運命にある。 例えば、イベントなんかに合わせて赤ジェムを半額以下にしてもう少し購入しやすい金額に設定する。 SPキャラも天井をもう少し緩和する。 URもSPも現状育成が難しい(特定イベのルーレットでしか拾えない)ので、もう少し育成がしやすいようなコンテンツを増やす。 そうすることで、もっと広い層がURもSPも育てやすくなり、アリーナでも色々な構成の陣容を見かけるようになるし、目的のキャラをゲットしたい人がお金を落としてくれるようになる。 例えばアリーナ入場特典にわけのわからんスキルではなくURやSPのかけらを週替わりなりでゲットできる機会をつくればもう少し課金層が増えると思うし、もっとコンテンツそのものが栄えると思う。 そうなれば開発したキャラも活きてくるし、このゲームそのものが遊びやすいことも相まってもっとゲーム人口そのものも増えるんじゃないかと思う。 **Developer response:** ご迷惑をおかけし、誠に申し訳ございません！問題が発生した場合は、ゲーム内のカスタマーサポートまたはメールrgsupport@topgamesinc.zendesk.comにご連絡ください。可能な限り迅速に処理いたします。 コミュニティhttps://x.com/rungoddess_jpに楽しいイベントが満載しています。参加してみませんか？ ### 5/5 — Buen juego casual *2025-10-25, version 1.0.38* Lástima que no hay casi alianzas activas, así que toca jugar solo. ### 5/5 — Run! Goddess Music *2025-10-24, version 1.0.38* The game is awesome my question is what is that song on Dawnstar Chronicles?!?! I keep trying to find it and failing! Please help?!? ### 5/5 — 유저 기만 게임입니다. *2025-09-21* 이 게임에 절대 유료결제 하지마세요. 몇천만원을 결제했는데, 아직 미완성 게임에도 불구하고 결제 유도만하고 미출시 컨텐츠 개발할 생각도 없고 신규 여신만 출시하는 게임입니다. 한국서버 네이버 라운지 관리자 오로라는 유저들 건의글 개무시하고 업무태만에 이 게임 개발자들 또한 유저들 말에 귀기울이지 않는 돈벌레들입니다. 이게임 시작도 하지마시고 하신다면 유료결제는 하지마세요, 언제 섭종하도 먹튀할지 모르는 게임 **Developer response:** 플레이어님 안녕하세요, 문제나 제안이 있으시면 저희 지원팀에게 문의해주시면 게임 최적화를 위해 노력하겠습니다. 귀하의 친절한 이해에 감사드립니다. ### 5/5 — Really fun! *2025-09-21, version 1.0.34* Found this game off a Facebook add. I’m not one to usually install App’s or games that I see. I’ve seen so many games just be rip offs of others with the same layout or concept. But this game is actually really fun, music is dreamy and chill, girls are amazingly gorgeous. Only problem I have with most RPG girl unlock games is the lack of bigger woman. The body types are really skinny, and model petite like which is over done. I’d just love to see bigger woman run along also with them. Other wise the game is fun! No crashes or anything yet! ### 5/5 — 업데이트후 접속 오류 *2025-09-17, version 1.0.34* 업데이트 하고 접속이 아에 안됌 ### 5/5 — Help!
