I gave t1 Linsey with weapon but she barely outdamages my healer. Never seen a gacha game with poorer balance. Fun gameplay and world but heavily p2w mechanics and horrible balance ruin it ### 3/5 — Ok, needs improvement *2023-12-11* Firstly, I wish the story auto function was completely automatic. I don't want to have to press continue after each stage, it should move on automatically without me having to press anything until I fail the challenged stage. Second, the app freezes a LOT. Every time I play I have to exit and restart the app at least twice because it freezes at random moments for no reason. Please fix this. Third, players shouldn't lose a match in the arena just because they failed to beat the other team within the time limit. It should be decided by who has the most characters left at the end of the match. It makes no sense for me to lose the match when I have all my characters left and they only have one left. Either make it continuous, not timed (don't see a reason it should be timed anyway? if you win, you win. Regardless of how long it took) or make the stronger team who has more characters left, win at the end. This feature is really dumb. The game itself is pretty generous so far and has nice art. I enjoy almost everything else. ### 4/5 — not bad needs improvement *2023-11-25* the game itself isn't too bad, they have also been pretty generous with currency and pulls so far but most games are generous at first then it gets harder and harder as it goes on. the auto function is really really bad, you'll often fail on auto mode and have to do it yourself. the game also freezes often and i have to force quit and restart. ### 5/5 — Great game so far *2023-11-25* Easy to understand and fun to play ### 5/5 — Amazing 🤩 *2023-11-24* Thai gameisbsi fun, there is a gacha with pretty fairodds in getting. Characte that you want. Although it is slightlybconfusing to get the hang of., I would totally reccomend. ### 5/5 — Don’t be hasty to judge *2023-11-24* I initially had an somewhat underwhelming impression of the gameplay, but as both a gatcha and shooter fan, I stuck with it. It’s a little blah in the beginning, and can seem like there’s a paywall looming. But then they open up some new mechanics later on, which really beef up your units. And more importantly the shooting stages get much more elaborate and engaging. Seems like there’s plenty of upgrade materials and pull tickets for free. I’m always 100% FTP, and already have a full team of S tier units after completing the third level. It is not perfect, as the translation definitely needs work to make the story more accessible. It seems like there’s a lot of cool world building, but it’s hard to wade through the choppy text. But there’s something quite addictive about the game, and it takes actual skill to play. It’s not just an auto battler. I’m definitely going to keep playing. ### 5/5 — Good Side Scroller *2023-11-24* It’s a different from the other side scrollers that I’ve played. The auto play is good enough for normal levels, but boss modes require some manual control. It’s a good mix for me because I don’t have all the time in the world to play, but there’s enough manual play to keep me engaged. You can skip stages after clearing them as well. The quality of life is done well, so you don’t have to waste time on unnecessary stuff. ### 5/5 — Having a blast! *2023-11-22* Addicting and fun! Great retro feeling! ### 4/5 — It is not bad. *2023-11-21* Is not bad, I like it 😉👍 ### 5/5 — Fun *2023-11-21* This is a fun game ### 5/5 — Pretty original concept for a gacha *2023-11-21* Unless there’s other gacha that’s like this, I haven’t played it. But I’m enjoying the niche concept and loving the art style. ### 4/5 — Fun *2023-11-20* My first S character was Newton instead of doing it with 10 draw I did it with a one ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-11-20* Great game ### 4/5 — New and innovative *2023-11-20* I want to see more ### 5/5 — Nice game *2023-11-20* Nice music! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Appears to be abandoned *2024-08-11* This game was a lot of fun for a few months after launch. Sadly, the developers have stopped updating the game. I don’t think there has been a story update or even a new unit released in 6-7 months. ### 1/5 — Why you shouldn’t play this game. *2024-07-11* this game has a discord that’s linked to the game and since of course the game’s people don’t manage it at all it’s run rampant with nothing but incels posting things they think are funny. And maybe it is to them but all I can say is disappointing at the least that they at least don’t manage what people are able to post hence the links to nothing but p*** on the literal guild section of which discord will promote to you to check out either way not a good look to be linked to people like that so don’t play the game if you want to see those incels on the discord. ### 1/5 — Falconer levels impossible *2023-12-05* It started as a fun game with multiple play modes, but required very difficult flappy bird rip-off, falconer levels are impossible and frustrating. I will be refunding all of my money and no longer recommending the scam to anyone. why do developers chose to make such an idiotic Decision is beyond me ### 1/5 — !Read This! *2023-11-20* Alright, so I’m a Genshin Impact enjoyer. I can easily tell that they are COPYING some of the character designs from GENSHIN IMPACT!!! If you want a good anime game, go check out Genshin. Way better than this rip off!! ### 1/5 — Pay to win and no customer service *2023-11-20* Oof, there’s a very steep difficulty climb and way too many pay to win options. Worst part is I haven’t been able to login today. The game just keeps replaying the intro. ### 1/5 — Ehhhh… *2023-11-20* So first it’s a steampunk based game. Not a huge fan of the genre but the game play was decent so I stuck with it. But now I can’t even log in. Tried deleting and reloading but same stuff. Game is not interesting enough to have this type of error…. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work *2023-11-19* Can’t even log back into the game. Opening cinematic will just play over and over. Tried the repair and uninstalling/reinstalling but not working Game has potential but is off to a very poor start due to bugs ### 1/5 — Cannot login anymore… *2023-11-19* This game is addictive with its play style. It has many many character that can combine to create a team to run through quests and challenges. The most important thing is… I cannot login anymore now! It just stuck at the starting screening with keep repeating the intro video… It does not fix even i delete and install the game again… so disappointed… ### 1/5 — Bad *2023-11-19* Bad ### 1/5 — Game Stuck on opening cinematic *2023-11-19* the game is currently not working as of 11/19/23 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Devs did a great job with this game *2024-03-15* Fun, challenging, nice storyline, great artwork, and F2P. I have t spent a dime and I’ve been playing for maybe a week or so and have already pulled 2 “S Tier” champions. Those are the highest rarity in the game but I’ve gotten plenty of A Tier which will probably be your best bet on who you should focus early game and develop 1st due to the fact you’re going to need duplicates to ascend higher. And so far I’ve gotten a lot of ATier duplicates, and only 2 S Tier so if you don’t plan to spend my advice is focus early game on A Tier players. Try this game and give it a shot because it might just surprise you. ### 5/5 — Refreshing game *2023-12-31* Not like every other gacha it has a good story and fun characters. ### 5/5 — Total Rockin *2023-12-28* Fast paced action involving friends! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2023-12-21* At first I didnt expect much but after playing I became addicted 😃 ### 5/5 — Best game I have played in a whiles. *2023-11-29* Very fun well designed game. ### 5/5 — Sick *2023-11-29* Brings me back but in an innovative way, drop rates are solid and no real push to pay anything, definitely going to keep playin this one. ### 5/5 — I got lucky pull *2023-11-28* Im so lucky s rank sekhmet ### 5/5 — Great game *2023-11-26* Is writing this part necessary? Idk ### 5/5 — Good game *2023-11-26* I’m enjoying this game so much. ### 5/5 — Good game *2023-11-26* I highly suggest your guy to try this game --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
