### 3/5 — Problem with game

*2026-02-22*

It kicks me out of the game and removes things I got I got the epic sword from the valentines event and when I went to go buy it again it’s sold out and I can’t get it back

### 3/5 — Shadow of death 2 review.

*2025-11-15*

This game is fun and has some good plot. However the bosses ESPECIALLY the gotlen spear dude is difficult to bypass cause when you think you are about to doge an attack he will do quite the opposite and kill you no matter what you do. Just like most of the bosses during this game. Plus a lot of the stuff is basically pay to win. Great game overall just not the original that I loved long ago.

### 2/5 — Locked characters

*2024-04-02*

Unable to play as other characters, unless you pay

### 2/5 — Игра класная но…

*2024-02-08*

… раньше когда читал отзывы что купили что-то и этого в инвентаре нет,но сейчас сам столкнулся с этим,уважаемые разработчики,связи дайте на вас,я предоставлю вам всю информацию,деньги не нужны дайте вещь которую я купил!!!

### 4/5 — Muito bom

*2023-09-07*

É magnífico mas depois dessa atualização dps de muito tempo sai do jogo do nada e tem uma coisa tbm as minhas abilidades que tem nas minhas espadas n estão funcionando mais antes elas funcionavam de boa mas agora n sei oq tá acontecendo

### 3/5 — Infelizmente dá bug em momentos decisivos

*2023-09-03*

O jogo é muito bom, tem um visual muito bonito. Mas estou cansado de lutar contra chefes difíceis e o jogo bugar quando eu venço. Vou desinstalar pois esses bugs estão comprometendo a experiência.

### 3/5 — Overused enemy

*2023-05-06*

There is this one enemy that is basically a mini boss (a lot of health, special moves, etc.), when this enemy made its first appearance it was fun to fight, but the next level had another one, then it had two, and in a later level there are five of those enemies (two fight you solo and three fight you at the same time) and eventually they just got super annoying to fight, and these enemies are not easy to kill so idk if I’m under leveled for some reason or if these enemies are just tough. Other than that the game is pretty fun

### 3/5 — Progress lost

*2023-04-18*

Reached level 15 and all the progress reverted to zero.

### 2/5 — Just update the game and fix the problems

*2023-03-14*

Fix it

### 3/5 — you can’t use the other characters

*2023-01-22, version 1.0.0*

once you finished the whole game you can’t use the other characters you have use the same character because it won’t let you use the other characters and then you have to use the same character if you want to do the whole story again

### 1/5 — Login

*2023-01-19*

You can’t login and there is no official website to log in at

### 1/5 — Рекламная хуета

*2026-03-12*

Один бой - одна реклама, ненасытные, жадные жлобы
Надеюсь ваши дети с вами будут так общаться, одно слово - одна реклама

### 1/5 — A nice game, but

*2025-12-31*

A nice game that I deleted within a day for one reason only: I'm tired of watching ads to get things. I have more important things to do…

### 1/5 — Перебор с рекламой

*2025-05-13*

Зачем нужно средство развлечения, которое несёт негатив из-за назойливой рекламы?

### 1/5 — Just why

*2024-07-08*

This game is not good. It has lees options then the original, it takes up more time, and easily cost more if you use money. Overall, the only reason that I even download this game was because I thought that the first one was good, so the second one wouldn’t be so bad. I was so wrong.

### 1/5 — Don’t download

*2024-05-12*

Wrost game ever played lagging issue this isn’t issue of my iphone its game issue wrost opponent some are overpowered some are nothing game is wrost

### 1/5 — Ads!!!!

*2024-04-12*

Many ads. I leave this game.

### 1/5 — Buggy Unfinished Game

*2024-03-18*

Just as the title says

### 1/5 — 課金反映できません。(見込みあるゲーム)

*2023-09-16*

日本だけなのか、販売元の管理の問題なのか、ゲームのクオリティーはなかなかいいのに課金しても反映されず、販売元に問い合わせして解決してもらわなければならない。(2回も課金してもすぐ反映されなかった。)

また「プレミアム」バージョンがリリースしたものの無理バージョンのデータをそのままプレミアムバージョンでも連動できるようにしてほしい。
(何のためにやりこんできたのか...)

日本のユーザーとしてもう少し積極的にゲームの運営に注意深くメンテナンスしてくれたら今後非常に見込みあるゲームな気がする🎮

### 1/5 — донат

*2023-09-08*

деньги сняли, покупку не получил

### 1/5 — Terrible game-ruining bugs/glitches

*2023-02-02*

This game has AWFUL bugs which completely ruin it. The character tab was removed which does not allow us to play as any other characters anymore.

Awful animation bugs during boss fight.

Wasted so much time levelling only to realize it’s a broken game.

Would receive 5 stars if they fixed it. Could be a perfect game but the developers ruined it by releasing it & then no longer giving updates. Game will prolly be dead & removed from the store soon.
