User reviews

iPhone version is cut off at the top.

Game is great, but the iPhone version is cut off at the top of the screen, stopping the player from seeing some important info. Doesn’t make the game unplayable, but it is distracting and annoying, stopping full enjoyment.

I already bought the game but now it wants me to buy again?

I reinstalled and now it’s telling me to buy the game again. That seems like a rip off. So I bought Slay the Spire instead of repurchasing this, and I’m having way more fun.

Crashes on launch

I guess I shouldn't have updated; the app info claims this supports iOS 9.0 and up, but after updating the app it crashes on launch on my iOS 10 device.

Good game but locked already-paid-for content

This is a good game but I shouldn’t have to buy it twice.
I paid for it when I initially downloaded it in May, 2019. I enjoyed it, including experimenting with all of the classes. Now I tried to return in January, 2021, only to discover that almost all of the classes are now locked behind an in-app purchase.
I get giving a taste for free and asking to pay to unlock the full game, but those of us who owned the game before the switch should have credit for the in-app purchase. (And yes, the restore button does nothing.)
This would be a five-star game without this issue.

Broken By Update

I’m not sure what the new update did because it broke my game. Now all content is locked again and I can’t restore my purchases.

How does the game handle monetization?

The game is free to download and play, but it includes in-app purchases. This means players can choose to buy items or features within the app to enhance their experience or progress.

Is this game suitable for beginners?
