Years of fun

I have been playing this game for years when I felt the urge to play a game similar to a Final Fantasy tactics style games. From the constant events, characters, story and multiple difficulties. I enjoyed every single aspect of the game. I am sad to see. A friend of mine and myself I’ve been playing this game since it came to global and we have not missed a day he’s.

I am sad that this game is going to get shut down globally because of war of the visions. This game is vastly superior and the rest of you also know this is a better game because you took all the ideas from this game and put it into war of the visions.

Best game out there on Mobile

So I have been playing this game for years and I can definitely admit that it is (to me) the best mobile game out there. It has plenty of heroes for you to choose from and you can make all of them pretty much invincible (I love being OP), it has tons of content that gets updated often as well. You can literally play this game all day if you wanted.

Now the bad stuff, I would tell anyone to never do the gem rolls unless your doing it for the items, the rolls have a really bad chance attached to them and you will almost always never get what you want.

There are heroes that are special where you can only get one shard a day and most of these are the best so it will take a long time to build them up.

The mobs you fight are complete cheaters I hate the fact that they pretty much have unlimited skills and you have a limit and it’s a low limit at that. I have lost plenty of quest To healers ( not dying just ended up quitting do you time) just because I run out of skills and they spam heals.

Other than that the guys/gals that made this game deserve an Oscar it’s awesome seriously.

Characters freeze up the battle

Hey, I love this game btw, but like I’m currently facing this issue where a character I own, Meilikki, would often bug the game when I use her in battle, which is a problem considering I put a lot into her, and to know that a character. I just don’t know what to do, every time I use her in battle, the battle freezes up when it’s her turn. I’ve tried restarting the game, logging out of the battle etc. I hope this problem is addressed soon because the event is limited and I want to master her job.

Frustrating game & losing hope

Long-time player, here. I love the story of Babel and the many sub-stories they offer. I also like most of their collaborations they bring over, though those units tend to have a short play "shelf life." There's no way to upgrade or strengthen collaboration units once the game upgrades the main units, so past collaboration units get left behind. If a player ends up spending money on the units during the collaboration run, that investment is essentially wasted.

My current frustration with the game is that there was a recent update to the entire platform that has broken several parts of the game. Certain characters have lost access to quests they once had, and other play areas have been broken. I've tried addressing this with Gumi support, but I'm hitting a brick wall - harder than usual.

As the game is right now, I cannot recommend downloading or playing this game until they've repaired what has been broken.

ITS AMAZING

It’s an amazing game with strategy and graphics, plus anime in general but I feel like the game should have a thing where you can reset characters by reset I mean get the money, exp, items, all of it back from them when they reach back to level 1 when reset for the ones you don’t use that much or never touched before because I feel like people made mistakes/accident upgrading or putting money in those characters we don’t use. Another reason is when we first start the game we have to use the characters we start with and weeks later of playing we get new & stronger characters so we would want to use the items & money from our old characters and transfer into the OP characters to make them even better. Again I feel like they should put a thing where you can reset characters back to 1, overall is a great game thank you for creating this!!

Can we have coupons that grant a higher chance for collab units?

I played this for a while in 2019. I left 2020 and got back in early 2021. I’m quite disappointed I missed the Shield Hero collar but no biggie. I really wanted Rimuru though and I missed that chance because I can’t buy gems and thus couldn’t make enough Summons. If you could make a voucher for the rare summon that gave us pure F2P players a chance at collab units that would be amazing!

This game allows for SO MUCH to happen, and for FREE?!?

I have played SO MANY games over these years, and there is NOT ONE that is THIS GOOD, AND *FREE*. I don’t even do reviews but I had to let this company know I will play this game the rest of my life
1. Compared to other games, even final fantasy tactics mobile, the grinding is understandable AND IT HAS IN-GAME TUTORIALS. There’s even a compendium online for unit-building and gear searching
2. Gameplay is exactly what you’d expect from a game with strategic elements such as being able to move after attacking, charge time for magic stacks, counter-attacks, etc
3. SO MUCH CONTENT! Character voices, art gallery, music, 5+ story modes, and I’m done with this mouthful of a review. Much deserved tho!

I’ve played this game for years now and love it. I started over about 90 or so days ago and didn’t link this one to Facebook and now when I go to log in at the menu where is says (touch screen) it says connecting and never starts the game up. It lets me write message or redownload but I don’t wanna lose my memory . I got the event characters I wanted a bit back and will quit all together if I have to start over. Please help or 5 stars go down to 1

Gambling w/ real money

Don’t ever buy any gems. There are opportunities to get characters and gears that you may want but it is going to cost you plenty of gems and they are not cheap and it’s still based on chance. You can sometimes get ok characters by pure luck. I have been playing for about 3 years and there are literally dozens of characters that are locked to me, these are some of the best characters in the game too. No surprise. The best way to beat the system is to save all your gems and try for the best chance to get a character that you want. You might have to save a few months or a whole year. But, good luck trying to max out the character that is another challenge after you finally get that one good character. The character is so underpowered it is basically useless. Play the game have fun but don’t buy any gems it is legal child gambling. You are always buying a chance to get something and most of the time you will be disappointed. Save yourself frustration, false hope, and your hard earned money.

Very Solid

As a long time and returning player I thought it was time to make a review for newer players. Overall the game wins my heart with its excellent usage of game mechanics. The starter bonuses are amazing for new players to max a unit and use that unit to clear most of the content in the game. Some aspects of the game can appear pay to win but you do get enough gems from story content to pull for new units to overcome obstacles. Through playing this game for years and recently starting anew, the game is in my eyes one of the best tactical rpgs out there for mobile

Promising yet overshadowed by objectification of female characters

I wanted to enjoy this game. Upon going through the first scene the story appeared to have merit, and this is coming from someone who has been gaming for over 20 years who has gotten to the point where story quality is what I look for most. However, just as many other games on the App Store, this game resorted to the objectification of women and portraying ridiculous geometry of women’s chests as their dominant feature versus their character, abilities, etc. This was unnecessary, as the story quality was clearly promising. However, this completely turned me off as a male gamer because the whole gamer population needs to be respected rather than only focusing on teenage male gamers, who by no means are the representative faces of the gamer population (women play games too). I strongly stand against this game until it appeals to players in a progressive and respectful way.

By Far Favorite Game...But...

This is by far my favorite game. It has an unbelievable amount of content. I love the stories, I love the free dailies, weeklies, and monthlies, I love the character building and the characters. I have been playing this game for a very long time. This would be one of the best ratings I ever gave a game if it weren’t such a memory hog. As of today it is taking up almost 8GB if memory , is there any way to off load some of this memory to be able to free up space on my phone? I afraid if I can’t I may have to delete the game. Please help. Thanks.

Exelent Partnerships

This game is very good for those who like strategy and have time to kill, this game also has ways of speeding through when you don’t want to feel like your grinding which is also excellent. Where this game does best is when there are partnerships with anime which we all know and love, or video game partnerships. In the past there was FF15, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood, and even attack on Titan. These were incredible ideas and fun while they lasted. However, this is where the issues also arrive. These partnerships seem to be completely limited and there is no other way to obtain the characters other than to play long and hard during the events. After these events the characters that you want had better be yours or your done. This can leave a bitter feeling in your mouth and has caused me in the past to quit this game for months but I come back because of the new events which promise better characters, and the events have gotten easier to get at least one or two of the famous characters. Seven Deadly Sins Meliodas is my favorite. I hope they cycle back to the events or open up a way to unlock the others from past events. It would also be nice to see them update the older characters because the old event characters are almost outdated and outgunned by the newer ones.

Amazing games!! WORST customer support.

So we wont lie this basis of this story is I’m a fool and I forgot to link my account. So at the end of the day yes, this whole ordeal is in fact my fault but people make mistakes. So we got ride of my old iPad and I forgot to link my game long story short I wanted to play and realized I didn’t remember whatever bogus name I made my player name. So I send in a request and I get “Willie” I tell him everything, my team leaders name, who’s on my team, levels, enlightening statuses, send him RECEIPTS of past purchases because I save weird things like that. But nope... they can’t help unless you know your exact player name, 5 names off your friends list (wwhhhaatt?!!) or a grouping of random numbers they call a friend ID. I’m sorry, I know at the end of the day it’s my fault but I mean I had order numbers from my purchases?! You can’t look that information up? Find out to what account it when to and quiz me on what going on in their? You can look up accounts on past purchases at a JCPENNY and you’re telling me you can’t do that when your a company that literally creates games on even more advanced TECHNOLOGY than a RETAIL STORE. Super disappointed because your games are amazing. Oh well. Nothing like losing a loyal customer.

This game is a masterpiece

So I started just after the final fantasy collab and I knew about this game from the Smosh games video they sponsored. I wasn’t that interested but one day I decided I’ll just download it cause I didn’t really have anything that was fun on my phone. I got the game and started and didn’t really care about the story. If I could go back I would read everything but just never did. I used the mercenary system and found a character I really liked but didn’t have. I worked to get him and once I did I started leveling him up. I used to play almost everyday while I was at lunch or if I was just waiting for something. I can’t play as much now but I do hop in and grind to get some stuff a little. The leveling system is smart and every character has their own stories with their own abilities.

Great game but problem

Attack on titan crossover is timed endgame content used to gain new players

The game advertised The AoT collaboration and intrigued me enough to download and give it a shot. Shortly after I realized the game was a fairly shallow gacha that expects you to shell out cash if you want to get a single character you might want. I automatically give 1 star to any gacha that will start you with significantly less currency than needed to perform 1 multi summon. Call it entitlement or whatever you want, but when other Gachas like Dokkan, Brave souls, one piece, and Naruto can give out several multi summons to new players on prime banners I think others should give at least one. It helps the player get into the game and figure out if they want to stick with it or not. In my mind it also shows how stingy the parent company is. It should be against the App Store TOS to advertise a limited time end game/p2p content to get players to download your free game.

Game unplayable

The game does not start. Every time (and I’ve tried multiple times) I complete the tutorial and spin for a free 5star character, I get taken back to the title screen where it says tap to continue. Once I tap, I get taken to a black screen animated with flames or light particles, but nothing happens. I can wait 15 minutes and the actual game won’t start. I saw other people mention this on a Facebook ad almost a month ago but to this day no solution. It’s a shame, I can tell I wanted to play this given how many times I attempted to make it work— I actually have too many mobile games downloaded but wanted to give this one a chance too. Also a big Attack on Titan fan. I guess I’ll never know?

The App Refuses to Work

I genuinely enjoyed the game (for the three days I was allowed to play it). It granted me a bunch of really nice 5* and the game play is really fun and engaging. But then it updated. Once it updated it locked me out of the app so any time I attempted to load into the game it immediately black screened and shut down. So I decided to delete and then redownload. Didn’t work and I ended up losing what progress I had made and the 10 or so 5* I worked for. It is incredibly annoying and I just wanted to enjoy the game itself. But it appears the update decided I’m not allowed to. If I didn’t encounter this issue the game out easily be a 5-star review but sadly it doesn’t look like I’ll be getting my progress back.

Game I so wish I could play!

I think it’s hilarious that Gumi made this app unaccessible to a large community by requiring 2GB of RAM to play version 4.0 for the GL version when this wasn’t an issue in the JP version. There has been no communication from GL on timetables other than responses to complaints saying to “get a more powerful device to play the game,” because I have so much money to blow on new devices. I left a 5* review intentionally to make this more likely to stay up and be read by someone who is closer to the situation than I. The complete lack of communication on top of the capitalist responses to complaints is what makes this situation so jarring and it makes me doubt how much I’ll play this app again if, not when, it goes back down to the 1GB RAM minimum.
