If you really needed to explain this much you should have had a longer intro section! ### 4/5 — It asks for this early *2023-07-04* Been playing less than hour. Okay so far. Could use an option to skip levels though, since it’s supposed to be idle. ### 4/5 — Promotional image *2023-06-11* The last image in your App Store page shows Afk arena factions at the top... ### 3/5 — Don’t get me wrong it’s a good game *2023-05-30* I like the game a lot but like jeez man the tutorial it doesn’t let you play the game I want to explore and see what the game has to offer other that’s the main battle thing with that arrow forcing you to do everything it makes me mad so that’s why I deleted it ### 5/5 — Enjoying very much *2023-05-27* Always fun to see a new well designed game like this. Very much enjoying the world and heroes ### 4/5 — Not too shabby *2023-05-27* Flows well. The only peeve I have is how long it takes to get going on your own. The game forces you to go through specific activities before you get freedom to do your own thing… I get it though. It helped to know what to do when it was time to “do”. ### 4/5 — Really good BUT *2023-05-26* This is unique from all the fantasy idlerpgs but even with a unique art style and stuff really does just seem like a sci-fi afk arena. Still good though. ### 3/5 — Tutorial is way too long *2023-05-22* Almost 2 whole chapters of being guided and told what to do, sitting here wondering if I would ever get to actually play the game… ### 5/5 — Always love games like this *2023-05-22* This is for some reason my favorite type of game gacha games just are so addicting to me even without spending any money the enjoyment of getting those strong characters you’ve been chasing. The art style is simple yet impressively well done. ### 5/5 — Review *2023-05-18, version 1.2.0* Love these types of games. One of the best ### 2/5 — Wish it were better *2023-05-18, version 1.2.0* Its one of those games where the screen is absolutely cluttered with menus and checklists and VIP stages and events that are all about in app purchases. Even if you wanted to spend a little money on this game it would be hard to know what to do. It’s purposefully confusing so you keep needing to spend. This game also isn’t polished at all. Examples: 1) It has words, images, and even some buttons that go beyond the edge of my phone screen, like the game doesn’t fit my phone. 2) The buttons are unresponsive sometimes and when they do respond, it feels slow and janky. 3) Some of the images and art are blurry while others are sharp and clear. It’s like they used some old art? I like the theme, and got a couple interesting characters. But the game is too painful to actually want to play. ### 2/5 — Good *2023-05-17, version 1.2.0* Good so far! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Better costume design please *2023-12-13* Not happy about this. The first thing I saw when I logged into the game was a girl in a stupidly skimpy outfit. I’m not playing a game that treats females with such disrespect, and I’m annoyed that the content rating said nothing about this. Please fix the graphics to have better taste. ### 1/5 — Uninstalled *2023-06-30* Why wouldn’t I be able to listen to music/podcasts while playing this game? There’s no voice acting so there’s no reason why the games audio should take preferential treatment over any other audio. Please fix this. ### 1/5 — Why is the tutorial so long *2023-06-03* I feel like I can’t even do anything but battle right now. It tells me to level up my characters but then forces me to continue battling after only letting me strengthen one of my guys. ### 1/5 — Absolutely awful *2023-05-28* Wants to be AFK Arena, which is another cash grab of a game, but uses copying and steals heroes from other games in an attempt to have some variety from “medieval fantasy” stuff. Still, the game becomes heavily P2W when you realize that at least AFK arena has the decency to include the rarest tier of heroes in the normal gacha Pool (albeit with a miserable %) while this game has a premium gacha on top of normal and element gacha that costs 2.5 times at the bare minimum to 10 pull. Absolutely disgusting. ### 1/5 — To cartoonish *2023-05-17, version 1.2.0* The art style is very “Kid” “Cartoon” extremely off putting ### 1/5 — Ridiculously long tutorial. *2023-05-17, version 1.2.0* The tutorial needs to be massively reduced. I should not have to play a 10+ minute tutorial for a mobile game. This is ridiculous, and I’m about to uninstall it. ### 1/5 — Definitely a pay to win game *2023-04-29, version 1.1.9* This is most definitely a money grab. To get past a certain point in the game you make it impossible to progress without spending any money. Well I guess I finally found a game that cares about money over making the game enjoyable to play. Most games like this are free to play. I really want to like this game but I’m getting more and more disappointed. I’m really hoping that things change. I understand that you have to make money but you should think about people like me that want to see how far we can get without spending any money. I am however wishing you much success in this game but please do better. Have a great day. **Developer response:** Thank you for your valuable feedback!

End up deleting ### 1/5 — Exactly what you'd expect *2023-04-27, version 1.1.9* Another idle heroes/afk arena style clone with all the staples. VIP system, endless p2w options, higher tier characters actually being traps that requires more $ invested in the long run, an unnecessarily long tutorial even though the game is exactly like the hundreds of others. As a bonus, the game froze after watching an ad, so you can enjoy the fun of watching an advertisement without worrying about things like collecting rewards. Be honest with yourself. Why would you still engage with these kinds of money traps in 2023? You know you'll get burnt out eventually. **Developer response:** Thank you for your valuable feedback!

Please fix this. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun n Enjoying *2023-12-05* Graphics are good, never something not to do, all around great game! ### 5/5 — Game overall *2023-07-31* I have like 30 mins in the game im enjoying the game so far ### 5/5 — Awesome!! *2023-07-16* Well done, little choppy but very impressed. Look forward to future updates. ### 5/5 — Pretty fun so far…! *2023-07-14* I’m really enjoying this game, and love the character designs ### 5/5 — Great but *2023-07-08* Seriously, the tutorial is too long. Half it or 1/4 it. I almost stopped before playing. Don’t lose people to the intro ### 5/5 — Good so far *2023-06-30* Has plenty of events and keeps you busy but rewards r decent ### 5/5 — Hmmm *2023-06-14* Just downloaded it and started the game and it’s asking me how it is, I don’t even know anything yet.. so I’m just gonna say hi here ### 5/5 — New player *2023-06-11* Hi. Players. I’m new to Tap Tap Universe. So far it’s a really fun game. I love the character designs and story. ### 5/5 — Already promising *2023-06-09* I have barely even started playing and it shows how much effort the developers have put into this it really has not only a great art style but also a nice charm, I can’t wait to see what happens as I get further in the game. I will say some people are angry about i being pay to win, but that is what a lot games in this genre is, I personally don’t care if a game is pay to win as long as it is not a largely competitive game, but if you don’t like games like that that is fine and it is up to you. ### 5/5 — Awesome Game *2023-05-28* I just started to play and I enjoy it, it an easy game to play~ it addicting --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
