### 1/5 — Don't bother purchasing

*2026-07-07, version 1.04*

The game is great on consoles and PC. But less so on iPad, even with a game controller. Example:The map doesn't work, it gets stuck. you have to use the touch control for map, then attack, then touch it again to close it. 
My biggest gripe is that a couple days in I opened the app and it was in Mandarin. I closed it and reopened, and it is now in English but it deleted all my progress. 
There are done bad reviews online of this game, just believe them.

### 3/5 — It will erase your progress

*2026-04-02, version 1.04*

Make sure to back of your save frequently or you will lose your progress. It’s a fun game but losing two days of play is exhausting.

### 3/5 — Bug

*2026-01-19, version 1.04*

When using controller on mobile i cant open the map up with R3 or pause the game with it and it gets really annoying

### 1/5 — File delete

*2026-01-15, version 1.04*

My save file keeps getting deleted. While I love the game on every other system do not buy it on mobile until this is addressed.

### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY. Would be phenomenal but consistent bug crashes wipe your save data.

*2025-09-23, version 1.04*

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

Writing this review after playing this game extensively. 

I want to start by saying this game on steam, or any other platform other than mobile is FANTASTIC.

The combat is smooth, relics and spells are creative and satisfying. Art work is whimsical and fun.

However, If you load the game in airplane mode it will wipe all of your data. I came back to the game a year later to see if they fixed the bug and they haven’t.

the game will eventually crash and you will lose all of your progress. If the game loads in airplane mode you will lose all of your progress. If you lose internet connection while playing you will lose all of your progress. 

Sometimes you will just lose your progress for no reason.

Do not waste your money on a game that the devs won’t fix. At this point its basically a scam.

### 1/5 — 運営さん……

*2025-09-05*

頼むからゲーム中勝手に言語変わるのだけは直してくれ。まじで萎えるしイラつく

### 1/5 — Way Overtuned, Grindy, and Glitchy

*2025-08-07, version 1.04*

I really wanted to like this one, but as the title says even on the easiest difficulty it’s tricky to reach the first chapter boss, let alone finish a run. The save problems are still present and prevalent, what’s worse is occasionally the items bought with the hard won currency (too little drops of it in the first place) will disappear from inventory. The combat is almost solid, though the enemies have far too many hitscan or quick attacks for my taste. The creators could learn from other roguelikes such as enter the Gungeon in all aspects. I’d say spend your money elsewhere.

### 3/5 — Great Game but…

*2025-07-20, version 1.04*

I love this game I have it on all my systems but on mobile it won’t save my progress. It will switch the language when I go through the teleport pads and will then delete all of my cloaks and my items. I’ve put a few hours into the game and got frustrated cause it deleted my progress twice. It did save my spells though but thats a lot of work gone already. Hopefully that bug can get fixed and this game will get full 5 stars

### 1/5 — Restarted my progress

*2025-07-17, version 1.04*

I was going through a run, then suddenly, my game language turned into Chinese? I know that it sounds like I changed the language but I was paying attention and I most certainly did not do that. Then after I close my run, it put me back into the tutorial and my progress was reset. Update: my spells were saved thankfully, and that I thank you for such, however my relics and my curse shop is missing.
