I am probably not the first to say this, but this is one of, if not the best mobile games ever. The story is extremely captivating, and it doesn’t feel detached. The decisions you make have consequences. You cry for the characters as the follow you into death or into victory. The story of this game shows the stories of refugees hurt by war, the motivations behind large political bodies, the tragedy of death and it’s a story that I have spent hours immersed in. The story isn’t the only part of the game though, there’s also a multiplayer aspect with the guilds and clash, upgrading your characters isn’t time consuming and boring, and though the game can feel grindy at times, it feels worth it. I also like how there are no ads. I have not encountered any advertisements playing this game, which is a breath of fresh air in a sea of mobile games throwing ads at you every minute. I also like the necessity, or rather the lack there of for micro transactions. You can play this game and enjoy it to the fullest extent without paying a single cent, and I’ve heard from friends that play this game that even the PvP system in this game doesn’t require micro transactions in order to be good. I imagine that it would help some, but I have a friend that says the only thing he bought was a skin and a guaranteed pull for a certain character, and he has one of the top guilds in the game. The best part of the game though is by far the story. I love so many of the characters and I love that there are characters that I absolutely hate. I believe that these stories actually have lessons to gain, and they are incredibly well written. One of the first things that was really put into perspective for me was the Papal States of Rodinia. The continent is called Rodinia, and there is a country called the Papal States or Rodinia in the country, and characters from the Papal States often refer to themselves as Rodinians, even though everyone is Rodinian. It reminds me of how in the United States we call ourselves “Americans” even though everyone from the Americas is American. It’s also a very beautiful game, especially for one with a pixelated, retro style. It does a really good job of blending 2d and 3d to the point where I didn’t realize there was actually 3d parts up until very recently. Literally the only thing that I’m not incredibly blown away by in this game is the voice acting. It doesn’t have English voice acting, which honestly is fine, I normally pick the original language of the game when there is voice acting rather than just English, and I find the voice acting to be a little over the top and unrealistic for the setting, however the voice acting is by no means bad, it’s actually really, really good again especially for a mobile game, it just feels out of place sometimes. Not the cat though, the cat’s voice doesn’t feel out of place even though she doesn’t have realistic voice acting either, mainly because she’s not human. I like that she says “meow” after each sentence, at least in the Japanese voice over, while it’s not represented in the subtitles I think it’s really charming. Overall one of the best games I think I have ever played, and I recommend it for anyone and everyone, it’s absolutely insane that this game isn’t more popular.
