### 4/5 — good but cannot go to the next dungeon

*2026-07-18, version 3.0.1*

I cannot go through the next dungeon

### 4/5 — Good app but small nitpicks

*2026-07-02, version 3.0.1*

You can’t change your username and i misunderstood the signup process so now I’m stuck with a bad username also it might be me being dumb but I can’t find the button for removing quests

### 3/5 — Bugs bugs bugs

*2026-06-18, version 3.0.1*

Nice game love where it’s going but theirs to many bugs click on certain options in game and theirs no way to back out of the option you’ve clicked no X to close or arrow to go back to the  Home Screen of game. Can’t even progress in the dungeon keeps telling me my current position is the centaur I can battle and beat it multiple times  and still have the next few stages and bosses locked. FIX THE BUGS PLEASE……..

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2026-06-13, version 3.0.1*

I like the idea of the app and I use it daily but its pretty buggy/broken still. Quests randomly reset, I can’t progress through the dungeons because the gate won’t unlock after completing the dungeon before it, 75% of the time i have to close and re open the app for it to update quest progression and other things. The app has good potential and I will keep using it but needs more work and the kinks worked out.

### 3/5 — Dungeon bug

*2026-05-23, version 3.0.1*

I finished the dark forest dungeon but it will not let me move on to the next

### 4/5 — Can’ progress dungeon bug

*2026-05-17, version 3.0.1*

I got a bug that i can’t move up the dungeon, no matter how many times i complete the previous dungeon, ie i completed the dark forest dungeon multiple times but cannot do the centaur gate as it says “complete previous dungeon” which i have multiple times

### 3/5 — It’s really good but there’s too much glitches

*2026-05-15, version 3.0.1*

I hope the dev sees this, I really love this game but there is too many glitches e.g I can’t even progress in the dungeons at this moment I’m like level 16 and I’m still stuck on the first dungeon it just won’t let me progress 

i’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong but I’ve cleared the first dungeon so many times with the green goblin and can’t make any progress

And the other thing is the glitches were the app say something But doesn’t do it 

For example, it would say armour equipped but you don’t see it being equipped so you have to keep doing it until it finally Registers. 

And I would like as a bonus is to make unique animations for each of the attacks, that alone will make the combat a lot more fun and engaging plus some cool sound effects too.

If you fix all of that then I will give 5 stars immediately

### 2/5 — Not in its current state

*2026-05-10, version 3.0.1*

Honestly I was enjoy the app quite a bit up until its last patch. I’d spoke to the dev on email about a few issues and I got a reply saying they were being worked on, then they were fixed a few days later. With that same patch, came quite a few issues, I sent these, with a few questions to the dev and after over 2 weeks I still haven’t heard anything and I can’t progress in the game. I’m stuck not being able to move past a dungeon, despite beating it over 10 times, the next one remains locked. Would not recommend in its current state

### 3/5 — Error when playing

*2026-03-01, version 2.2*

When in the lobby I click on nemesis and it tells me to position my phone so it can see me but the app doesn’t request for camera Access so I can’t

### 4/5 — Good but has bugs

*2025-10-31, version 2.1.0.7*

This game is doing great for keeping me motivated but there are a few bugs I’d like to be fixed.
- Daily goals are automatically set as completed and I don’t get any stat boosts due to not being able to check them off. This is the main thing I’m upset about since I’m loosing out on exp, keys and stat boosts for absolutely no reason.
- Tapping strength based goals just opens a white screen instead of opening the goal menu
- I can’t change my in-game username, tapping my profile icon in the avatar screen just opens the avatar screen again

It’s a great game for motivation but the goals being auto-completed is really grating. Even goals I set up for everyday habits are autocompleting themselves.

### 3/5 — Gute App

*2025-10-28, version 2.1.0.6*

Ich liebe das Prinzip der App und das es neben quests gab man bleibt immer Motiviert doch seit dem es das neue Update gab komme ich nicht mehr an die neben quest weil ich nicht darauf klicken kann weil es am Rand ist und wenn ich nach links scrolle um es an zu tippen es funktioniert nicht weder tippen noch screen Kleb kann ich.und ich bekomme keine neuen quests

### 3/5 — Plutôt satisfait

*2025-10-20, version 2.1.0.3*

Malheureusement trop d’activité  requiers de payer, sans payer, nous avons à notre disposition que 7 exercices.

### 3/5 — Please let me delete my account!

*2025-10-19, version 2.1.0.3*

So I downloaded it when the game first came out. It used to automatically make you play a male but now that they have the female option I tried deleting my old account so I could be a female instead. And the delete account button won’t work when I press it.

### 4/5 — CUSTOM QUESTS BUGADAS

*2025-10-08, version 2.1.0.3*

O app em si é excelente, porem as costum quests que nós mesmos criamos não se reseta pra marcar como concluido no outro dia, peço por favor que mude isso

### 4/5 — Minor Bug

*2025-08-10, version 2.1.7*

I’ve had this game for a while and it’s very fun playing the game through the new updates that have been being added, however in the newer updates I haven’t been able to progress in the dungeons. Every time I defeat a level it doesn’t let me unlock the next tier. Besides this minor feature I’m loving everything else though.

### 3/5 — Dungeon problem

*2025-08-09, version 2.1.7*

After defeat 1-1, 1-2 not open. Same in gates after defeat first gate next gate not open

### 1/5 — Fix your bugs

*2026-08-07, version 3.0.1*

I complete dungeons, but I can’t move on. They won’t unlock after finishing the previous dungeon not really fun to play when I can’t progress

### 1/5 — Scammers

*2026-07-19, version 3.0.1*

I kept trying to cancel my subscription, and I’m still getting charged for it, I have no way to do it from the App Store, and I deleted the account, so I don’t get charged anymore, and they trying to charge me, worst experience

### 1/5 — Trash app now

*2026-04-10, version 2.2.1*

It used to be a good app now all they care about is money. Everything involves money you used to get drops from dungeons now you can’t without a subscription?? What a joke.

### 1/5 — It was perfect (was)

*2025-11-03, version 2.1.0.8*

This app was perfect and I loved it the fighting and working out was amazing the progression was perfect everything was great till the new update came out it ruined everything

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2025-09-20, version 2.1.0.3*

Basically when I tried to delete my account to start over then it didn’t delete so when I tried to make another account it made an account but didn’t change the name on screen very buggy would’ve been a good app if you could fix the log in issues and another thing is when you create an account make it so it tells you if the user name is taken or the email is already used

### 1/5 — bugs

*2025-08-24, version 2.1.0.1*

selling and buying any item is a bug fest where it’s a 50/50 on if you’ll go into negative or be able to do anything at all

### 1/5 — glitchy

*2025-08-20, version 2.1.0.0*

love the concept but the app itself is glitchy beyond use

### 1/5 — Buggy as hell + paywall

*2025-07-28, version 2.1.6*

Would give 0 stars.
An amazing concept with terrible execution.

Lag, full of bugs (I can’t even use the quests screen without it crashing) and ads

A paywall that gives you the basic QOL you’d expect would be part of a habit app

Not worth the 5s it takes to download 

This could have been so much better and had so much potential

### 1/5 — Trash app now

*2025-06-05, version 1.8.6*

It used to be a good app now all they care about is money. Everything involves money you used to get drops from dungeons now you can’t without a subscription?? What a joke.

### 1/5 — Cool idea poorly executed.

*2025-04-20, version 1.7.6*

I really liked the premise and experience with this app at first but the support has been atrocious. I made two small in game purchases and was never given my items. I was told I would get them in the next update, which also didn’t happen and I’ve been ghosted since.

### 5/5 — Review

### 5/5 — TÜRKÇE

*2026-01-11, version 2.1.0.9*

Türkçe dil desteği olursa Türkiye de tutar

### 5/5 — A Life Changing and Motivating Game

*2026-01-07, version 2.1.0.9*

I have been using this app since the earlier days of its release, with that considered I’m not a very high level but thats going to change this year 😁. Anyway, i’ve had the pleasure of watching the result blood sweat and tears poured into this game over the years turn into an amazing, legitimate, and quality gamified fitness tracker and i would highly recommend to anyone interested to at least give it a try. If i could rate it higher i would :)

### 5/5 — really love this game

*2025-12-16, version 2.1.0.8*

best app in my phone but it’s stille pretty buggy, i have to uninstall and install bc of the tasks that are not working or sometimes it changes my stats, maybe work on the code and make it more efficient, don’t let this game be the second option

### 5/5 — Peak app

*2025-11-27, version 2.1.0.8*

Changed my life fr goated app

### 5/5 — Choisissez selfquest

*2025-10-26, version 2.1.0.5*

C’est je pense la meilleure application de sport que l’on puisse trouver, j’ai 15 ans j’ai pas accès à une salle de sport je peux que faire du sport chez moi et grâce à cette application je peux faire mon sport de façon organisée, j’ai l’abonnement et c’est le plus rentable que j’ai, de plus l’application s’améliore de jour en jour et deviens meilleure.
Je suis fier d’avoir cru en selfquest depuis le début!

### 5/5 — error de poder

*2025-09-24, version 2.1.0.3*

cuando reclamo la recompensa de journalling dice 2 de percepción y me da fuerza

### 5/5 — Usefull app in everyday

*2025-06-02, version 1.8.6*

I started using it since the begining and i really love the aproach of the game. The developer put a lot of effort in the patches and updates. Good community at discord.

### 5/5 — Solid discipline app

*2025-05-13, version 1.8.3*

Overall, it’s a really fun app. Easy to use, don’t need wifi for me, and is mostly customizable without needing of purchases. Only things I wish were added was better tracking of movement because sometimes when I do an exercise for a dungeon, It doesnt register, and when you accidentally complete an unfinished quest without intention you cant redo that quest. Hopefully these suggestions are added later on, but this is a great starter on the road of improvement 👍🏻

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2025-05-12, version 1.8.1*

I love this app so much it’s the best.  I cannot wait for more things to be added.  Please do not give up on this it has soooo much potential.  It is already an amazing app and I can’t wait to see more of it.
