And yet the game lag and at time reaches 6k+ ping leading to 100% death. The potion to recover the exp is 500k gold impossible at lower level. Go find another game to play instead of wasting countless hours grinding only to lose your progress due to lag. ### 2/5 — Crashes *2021-07-26* Keeps crashing within a few minutes of loading. ### 2/5 — Would be fun without extreme lag *2020-11-26* Great little grinding game - except the unbelievable server lag makes death a certainty. Just not an enjoyable experience. ### 2/5 — Will not load *2020-10-28* Game gets to about 20% loading and crashes every time. I have not been able to get this game to load successfully. Uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times with the same result. I’m over it, will try again in a few months. iPad 6th generation ### 4/5 — Five star potential *2021-07-30* Great potential!! Really cool game, needs a little work but it is reminiscent of the original Everquest which I love since I’m an old timer myself, however it has the potential to be an awesomely fun game once the glitches and kinks are worked out. Camera angle could use a little options tweaking as well but as the title says it has five star potential especially since it’s not a cash cow like most of the other greedy go broke games out there. The other thing, I love is the armor and weapons graphics are more realistic and not over the top as if some game designer put a bedazzler to them. Keep coming with the updates if possible so it stops crashing and I’d actually be willing to pay a few bucks to play the game as I’m certain others would too, if that works as an incentive for y’all developer(s). ### 5/5 — Team *2021-09-08* Just needs a team to work on this game then the game would be perfect Old School open world Game. But that’s just in my opinion.. ### 5/5 — Thanks for Uldate *2020-12-04* Will this work for an IPadOS 13.7. Mine will load to 39 percent, but then exits game. Please help me on this... Whelp, it’s me and I’m back a month and a half from this earlier comment, let’s see if this game changed any ### 5/5 — A lot of potential but not very good in its current state *2020-08-17* I think the game has a lot of potential but a lot to work on. First of all, I think the camera position is atrocious. The game would look a lot cooler if the camera was behind the player like most mmorpgs. This would make the graphics and the world much more interesting to look at instead a boring top down perspective. Another issue is there is no talent system or anyway to build your character other than armor which means every warrior, mage and archer is the same. The questing at least at the start of the game is super bad. Nobody wants to kills a bunch of rats as the first thing that they do. Finally, the game would be cooler if it had character customization. Last thing is do not make the players pay to speak in all chat. This makes it so nobody in the game is talking which makes it feel dead. ### 5/5 — Give it a try *2020-08-14* Friendly community, frequent updates, new US sever for previously players lagging in the EU sever, and players idea/comments are taken into consideration so the potential is great. ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2020-07-23* Awesome dev very kind! We also have an amazing community (: come log in and spend some time with us! Don’t forget to visit our discord. ### 5/5 — Sense of nostalgia *2020-07-18* I see potential ### 5/5 — Great game *2020-07-02* Just started out shows promise --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
