### 4/5 — Cool game

*2025-12-07*

Cool game, the fun in it to me is the combinations of possibilities. You guys still planning on making more scenarios or more traits? It's been a while and I was hoping for some.

### 3/5 — Pay to win

*2025-07-26, version 1.4.14*

More often than not once you hit the third area, you won’t get items that increase your traits so you are forced to either watch 2 ads or use gems. 

Also, the Almighty and Dimension Breaker are OP and even with a broken build they will kill you.

### 3/5 — Meh

*2025-05-07, version 1.4.14*

Wish we could pick more free stuff

### 4/5 — Better than most slop

*2025-03-13, version 1.4.14*

The game itself is above average. If i could give 3.5 I would. The things i i dislike are: you aren't told what "destiny" is, and the english is poorly translated. I understand and respect the decision to make a lot of the content paywalled. The game is well made. I would definetly pay money if there was more campaigns and replayability

### 3/5 — Great but Lacking

*2025-02-04, version 1.4.14*

The game is great, it just needs a better way to expand gameplay. You start with a free character and story but need to watch a ton of ads to earn a small amount of gems to unlock  characters, gear and stories but you can’t earn them through gameplay. Need more of an incentive if I want to purchase more gems to keep playing.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-08-17*

Very good quality, a hidden gem

### 3/5 — Great Game, horrendous devs

*2024-08-16, version 1.4.11*

The game is fun enough as it is, but practically everything is put behind a paywall (or a massive amount of ads), which makes it clear that the devs are practically angling with your money. The pricing isn’t exactly generous, either.

### 5/5 — 너무 잘 만든게임

*2024-08-06*

풀패키지 결제하고 캐릭도 거의 다삼.
다만 새로고침광고 제거가 월정액이라는게 불합리.
근데 로그라이크에 진심이라 게임성도 너무 좋고 스토리도 유치하지 않고 마음에 듬.
패키지 게임 하나 내줬으면 좋겠음.
시간도둑.

### 5/5 — Great game ngl

*2024-07-11, version 1.4.10*

Good

### 3/5 — Dear Devs,

*2024-06-23, version 1.4.10*

PLEASE give us some better way to earn gems I cannot stand how insanely hard it is to progress through this game without them and with only 1 free character and 1 free level… you get bored very quickly. The game is fun and they honestly have a great thing going. But give the F2P/F2C players something to work off of PLEASE!!!

### 5/5 — bug

*2024-05-21*

Hey, handsome planner, I have a few problems in this episode, may need your help, first: because of the last update of the first discount, I used to buy a second map, so I did not enjoy the first discount, really sad, second: Advertising can not see, every time is advertising in preparation, without those free bricks, I can not beat the final boss, hope you can help me!

### 3/5 — Far too monetised

*2024-05-20*

Very fun game with good replayability, however holy hell is it monetised, you start with one character and one scenario. I spent $20 odd to get rid of ads and some gems, first 2 packs forget exactly what it gives and in the end could only get one more character. At the same time it’s not like you even get gems for completing runs which I would be fine with.
Over all very fun love the style and variety of each run but the amount of money it asks for to either get one more character or one more scenario is ridiculous

### 3/5 — I want to spend money on your game and I can’t

*2024-04-25, version 1.4.9*

I was happy to pay for characters and buy gems or whatever, the app doesn’t let me. It’s saying “failed to connect”. I have the latest iPhone, it should work

### 5/5 — 중독성 갑. 개선점은 심플.

*2024-03-26*

*** 구매내역이 복구 안 됩니다 해결해주세여 시나리오 선택 후 그 전 화면으로 돌아가기가 안 됨. 추가 캐릭터와 시나리오 비용이 아주 애매하고 미묘하게 비싸서 주저됨. 하지만 지를 가치는 있음. 이런 류 게임에 진심이라면 돈 안 아까움. 하지만 진입 장벽 좀 높은 듯.

### 5/5 — 결제가 안돼요

*2024-03-23*

운명개척자패키지 구매했는데 “기존 결제 처리 중 오류가 발생했습니다“ 이렇게 떠요.. 돈은 결제됐고요. 게임은 재밌게하고 있어요 ㅎㅎ

### 4/5 — Pretty damn good but…

*2024-03-22*

Neat game however would’ve given 5 stars if there was a previous button on scenario/character select to go back to previous screen.

Also just did bought the Expeditioner pack, payment did go through but it keeps on giving me an error saying “There is an unfinished payment…” and when I tapped “Yes” it comes back with “an error has occurred while processing existing payment”.

Tried every trick in the book but to no avail.

Devs, please fix?

### 5/5 — 버그를 발견한 것 같습니다

*2024-03-20*

“회상 : 극지의 기사”를 절망까지 클리어한 후 “겨울의 탑”을 플레이하기 위해 난이도를 확인하였더니 아직 클리어하지 않은 난이도가 클리어한 것으로 처리되있는 것을 발견했습니다. “회상 : 극지의 기사”에서 클리어한 난이도까지 “겨울의 탑”이 클리어 처리되어있는 것을 보아 다른 테마끼리 난이도가 연동되어있는 것 같습니다. 확인 부탁드립니다.

### 1/5 — Good game gone bad

*2025-04-25, version 1.4.14*

It has all the bones of a good game but difficulty setting is too high. There should also be more ability to adjust your character.  The price for expansion is ridiculous.

### 1/5 — .

*2024-09-24*

Fight system is bulls*it

### 1/5 — Native English speakers must cost a lot of money

*2024-04-30, version 1.4.9*

Can’t imagine any other reason why someone would release a text-based game in the US that is this poorly translated.

### 1/5 — I never loads

*2023-11-17, version 1.4.1*

If I could do zero I would no matter how good my Wi-Fi was I never got in a sever

### 1/5 — No game balance

*2023-11-05*

Badly balanced, enemies have broken mechanics and perma shield for no reason. Basically don’t download this game because nothing is balanced properly

### 1/5 — Can’t actually get in the game

*2023-10-29*

Waited 20 minutes but it still says Im connecting into the server

### 1/5 — 서버접속중에서 넘어가질 않음

*2023-10-29*

리뷰에 이 얘기 오래전부터 올라오는 거 같은데 개선을 안함.

걍 고칠 생각이 없는듯.

### 1/5 — P2W pay to play even

*2023-10-25, version 1.4.1*

They should give a small amount of gems when beating a difficulty at the least, only way to earn gems is by watching ads. This is typical mobile game behavior so I don’t expect it to change for the better.

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2023-10-15*

Game won’t load past the first screen.

### 1/5 — Too Bad

*2023-10-13, version 1.4.1*

Downloaded the game thinking it looked pretty good. Then found that the game wouldn’t load. Deleted the game…Too bad. I’ll try one more time and see if it works.

Solid

### 5/5 — Tow

*2025-12-11, version 1.4.14*

Great time sink.  Impossible is… pretty close I think.  Wouldn’t know, haven’t quite beaten it.

### 5/5 — 굿

*2025-09-29*

재밌고 좋은 서바이벌느낌?의 게임입니다 계속 선택하며 싸우고 단계가 나눠져 있는게 제 승부욕을 자극합니다.다이아 모으는게 어려워서 캐릭터를 골라서 하고 싶어도 못합니다 현질을 해야지 단기간에 바꿀수 있는거 같습니다,물론 광고를 보고 한 30일 정도 보면 되지 않을까요? 근데 확실히 조금 더 싸게 캐릭터를 바꿀수 있으면 좋을거 같네요 무료면 더 좋고요! 장점을 더 말해보자면 시간가는줄 모르고 능력 스킬 등등을 선택하며 캐릭터를 강화할수 있단겁니다.다크 판타지 느낌이 절 미치게 합니다 ㅎㅎ 쨋든 너무너무너무 재밌고 광기에 차서 이걸 백년 하라면 할수 있을거 같네요 캐릭터를 바꿔서 못하는건 아쉽지만 뭐 별 다를건 없겠죠. 재밌으니까 함 해보세요 약간 모험가 이야기 느낌입니다 재밌어요.

### 5/5 — Very good!

*2025-08-10, version 1.4.14*

Difficult, immersive and doesn’t block content. It’s better than nearly all other similar games. 9/10

### 5/5 — 몰입감 쩔고 캐릭터 일러스트도 너무 좋은데

*2025-08-03*

연습모드 전스테이지 플레이 가능하게 해주세요
광고제거시스템 만들어 주세요

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-04-01, version 1.4.14*

Good job, it’s perfect. Most enjoyable game in the App Store.

### 5/5 — Love this game!

*2025-03-31*

I’m one of those guys that downloads games, play a little, don’t like it , delete. But this game I am liking so much. It’s not a game where you just attack, attack & attack, you got to decide between using a skill or defend or attack based on what the enemy does. And also decide which traits you should choose. Each time I die and play again I try different strategies, choose different traits and based on what I learn or determine which strategy is best, I try again on the next run. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Extremely fun

*2024-11-30, version 1.4.12*

I’m enjoying the game far more than others of this variety. I played with the one character so far. But I’m looking forward to playing with others as time progresses. Thankyou so much for creating this game.

### 5/5 — Noice

*2024-11-27*

As the kids would call it “ITS SKIBIDO OHIO MAX RIZZ GETTIN ALL THE HUZ” or as I would say an exceptional game and I hope you make more spots of heaven for us

### 5/5 — Kaos

*2024-09-06, version 1.4.12*

Good job 

Very fun

Never the same run
