### 3/5 — Ошибка

*2026-03-24*

Здравствуйте. После обновления у меня не накапливаются золотые монеты. Также нет награды за офлайн. Сумма золота не увеличивается я не могу производить улучшения. Исправьте пожалуйста 🙏🏻

**Developer response:** Hello. There is idle rewards when you offline for at least 10 minutes, it's in the treasure chest on the left of the screen and click to claim. Please keep a stable connection and do not change time in phone settings. If you are having any issues or questions related to the game, please fill in this form: https://forms.gle/4fr6wUGp8CACzWiJ9

### 3/5 — Wirklich gut, leider

*2026-03-11*

Viel zu viel Werbung. Wenn man sich kein Paket kauft wo man keine Werbung mehr sehen muss, ist es fast nicht spielbar. Könnte ein wirklich tolles Spiel sein. Vielleicht ändert ihr das noch. So ist es leider nicht spielbar. Pakete sind auch viel zu teuer.

**Developer response:** Hi!  We understand your feeling. We wish we could disable them forever. At the same time, ads allow us to maintain the game, add new features, and make it available for everyone without any charges! We hope you can understand that. Thanks for your patience and support!

### 3/5 — ボスからの攻撃1発で倒される

*2025-12-11*

1,5000円ほど課金して遊んでいます。
キャラクターもそれなりに強くなりましたが、
ボスからの攻撃1発で倒されます。
自キャラクターのHP設定おかしくないでしょうか？
HPレベル6500程度ですが、1撃で倒されてしまいます。
ボスからのダメージに対して自キャラクターのHPが圧倒的に少なすぎると思うのですが設定は正しいでしょうか？

### 1/5 — You Need to Watch Ads to play

*2026-02-21*

Right from the start you have to Watch 50 sec ads again and again and again and again just to proceed with your Main quests. You can’t Not play the Game longer than 5 min until you have to Watch an advertisement every Minute to play more. And by the way the gameplay is JUST TO WAIT UNTIL YOU HAVE ENOUGH GOLD TO CLICK ONE BUTTON AND THEN WATCH AN AD AND WAIT AGAIN

**Developer response:** Hi!  We understand your feeling. We wish we could disable them forever. At the same time, ads allow us to maintain the game, add new features, and make it available for everyone without any charges! We hope you can understand that. Thanks for your patience and support!

*2025-08-23*

Dungeons are unplayable now. They are way too strong. How can I compete now as a free2play gamer. 

This game have a problem with the power curve. Since the update came my experience got more frustrating. They are so many problems like the incantation. 
My best items are legendary.  My alchemy is like 99% finished and i see no improvements in the attack power. I got stock on expert 8-6 Since two weeks now.

This patch is unplayable fix it.  Give us the older version
