Legendary outfit package let down

So I bought the legendary outfit package for Freya thinking it was going to come with the character, the outfit, 3000 lucky cards and bonus materials (as pictured) for $49.99 but when I bought it I only received the character and the outfit. No lucky cards. I’m not even sure if I got the “bonus” materials. If I knew that the lucky cards weren’t going to be included I wouldn’t have bought it and instead would have grind for the character. I would ask for a refund for the false advertisement but I’ll Just let it go because I would like to support the creator for future updates. The game is great, it’s a good time killer and I’ve been playing it almost every day. I’m just here to warn other players about legendary outfit package.

Response from developer

Hello, I'm sorry I'm just hearing about this, it sounds like a bug... If you email me (social@shibamaru.jp) with your player ID I can make sure you get any missing items !!

Ok, but has problems

Nice art and decent game-play but you can’t play much until you get time gated by running out of daily energy and being pushed into micro transactions. Main mission rewards are also glitched and don’t give premium currency even when you get a “perfect” score. Tried contacting the dev and never got a response.

It’s missing something

This game is fine, it’s just kinda missing the point of a tower defence game. It feels like it’s trying to smash things together that don’t really work. It’s using some mechanics that remind me of Arknights, but with a style more like Bloons. It all comes together into something that feels like it’s missing an ingredient.

The strict placement mechanics feel unnecessary when the towers can hit in a full circle around them. The ground units don’t feel great as almost immediately enemies can pass through them, and range enemies seem to target units closest to them, often making your ranged units still being the target.

All that being said it’s got some nice character designs, I don’t know how I feel about the enemies being cute animals though.
