### 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

### 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

### 4/5 — Super good magic game

*2025-03-18, version 1.04*

Super fun game. It has great replay ability and it has SO many different spells that are all super fun to use. Only problem I have is if you forget to manually save your data you can lose everything and I wish there was a multiplayer mode that wasn’t local. Other than that super fun game with really cool magic.

### 1/5 — Save state Bug

*2024-12-28, version 1.04*

Gameplay is fine however heavy progress is lost after closing out of the game

### 1/5 — Christmas 2024 Game Ending Bug Still Alive

*2024-12-23, version 1.04*

All of the reviews stating that there’s a catastrophic fault with the game where it bugs out with Chinese letters and resets your progress is still alive. I’m not sure why the devs haven’t addressed or fixed this issue but I highly suggest NOT buying this until you see that they have fixed this (literal) game ending bug. It will reset every second of progress without any chance of retrieving it. Do NOT dump time or buy this game!

### 3/5 — Please fix the Chinese characters…

*2024-12-14, version 1.04*

On the wall to the right of the training dummy’s in the lobby. There is a wall when u approach it shows 3 blank options and below that is Chinese characters in a red button format… I click on it and it asks if I want to reset my data.. but there are Chinese characters please replace that with english Just realized this.. but please have screen orientation as either an option or functional because when I charge my phone it’s twisting my wires..

### 4/5 — Please fix the Chinese characters…

### 1/5 — Broken on iOS

*2024-10-09*

It’s a good game on Steam but it’s broken on iOS. Doesn’t save and language settings are always coming back to Chinese.

### 3/5 — Bug

*2024-10-02*

Tem um bug que reinicia o jogo no dia 23

### 1/5 — Chinese texts

*2024-09-24, version 1.04*

Just bought the game on my iphone why does it is on chinese, i cant translate it into english. How can i fix it? Help me please.

### 2/5 — Great game

*2024-08-04, version 1.04*

Super fun game. I made it to third boss and unlocked most relics and arcana but then I opened the game and found that my entire progress got wiped. Very frustrating and makes me not want to play anymore. Fix it and I’ll play again.

### 1/5 — Save data don’t even work zero point.

*2024-07-23*

Played it maybe for a day and it forgot everything. I’m older now. Fix your product. It’s not consistent on each system some versions has different updates. Didn’t know about the mobile version, thought it would be cool to try the touch screen version. Whoops all my data was erased, I’m too superior for this or it wouldn’t have happened. Yea.. back to another language at menu, all items unlocked gone. Not worth it. Apple Game Center id registered so it’s on you. All other games work just fine.

### 2/5 — My honest review

*2024-07-20*

It theoretically is a really fun game but on mobile I feel it lacks a bit of snappyness I don’t know if thats just me, but what isn’t just me is that my right stick doesn’t open the map and that I cannot pause with any button on pc that works perfectly fine and I really enjoy this game haven’t tried the import save feature because I didn’t bother playing due to the problems mentioned before also the music sounds like it was played down the telephone which doesn’t sound bad from the pc so it’s another app problem.

### 1/5 — bad music quality

*2024-06-02, version 1.04*

the music is nice bad but the quality feels low 
pls fix it

### 1/5 — Why does this game cost money?

*2024-06-02, version 1.04*

Thought I would get this game. after I start playing for a few days and have lots of in game money and spells I load off and then back on everything is deleted all my progress all my money all my spells gone I don’t think I’ll be trying to get all of it back I think I’ll try and get my real money back.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 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.

### 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.

### 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.

### 1/5 — Game keeps restarting

*2025-06-20, version 1.04*

I would like a full refund. I played though the story and collected and bought a lot of equipment robes and arcana but the game keeps resetting and I start from the beginning.

### 1/5 — Incredible game, but don’t buy the mobile port.

*2025-04-13, version 1.04*

I loved this game on pc, and after learning there was mobile port I jumped to buy it. The game is an incredibly well made port of the game. However, the game deletes progress on the regular. I have lost my progress 3 times now. Because of this, I can’t recommend anyone buy the mobile version of this game. In short, buy it on steam.

### 1/5 — Save glitch

*2025-03-16, version 1.04*

Ok so I was playing for the past week and I had so many cool spells lined up but I just opened my account today and I lost all that progress. I lost weeks worth of grinding spells and chaos gems and now I don’t even want to play this game anymore knowing it’ll happen again

### 5/5 — Love this game and I wish it had a DLC

*2025-07-01, version 1.04*

How I love this game, but after beating it a bunch of times. Sometimes I wish it had a dlc with more arcana elements and stuff. Ik there is a second game in 3d but how I love the pixel art.  This game deserves so much more love. I just love the different arcana and the different builds u can make. I wish the 3d version was like Ror2. Having lots of movement like roboquest. Game would be so peak.

Also there is a problem where when I rejoin the same trial after I close the game it doesn’t let me use the charged signature arcana. It shows that it’s charged and ready but when I use it. It just does the standard one.

### 5/5 — This is by far the best mobile game I’ve ever played!!

*2025-05-06, version 1.04*

The game is so amazing. I love everything about it, it’s so easy to find yourself immersed in spell slinging combat with this game. Please never take this off App Store, this game is truly one of the best parts of my day.

### 5/5 — Drops my safe

*2024-07-15*

I really like this game, the problem is it drops my safe date all the time. I have to start from the beginning because of it. It happens randomly I start the game and then I am at the beginning.

### 5/5 — Wonderful

*2024-01-01, version 1.03*

Gameplay is great. I haven’t encountered any save issues, but I do go to settings and upload save progress often. If you use a controller, map is bugged and won’t close until you use an attack in touch screen mode and then touch map again while still in touch screen mode.

### 5/5 — Good all around

*2023-12-11, version 1.03*

I haven’t had a problem with saving I’ve never lost any progress I haven’t beat Master Sura yet but I will soon I just save my progress from time to time

### 5/5 — 이 글을 본부장님이 싫어합니다

*2023-12-09*

시간가는줄 모르고 플레이하다 늦잠자고 회사 지각하고 그러다 클리어하고 할 것이 없어졌는데 업데이트 되고 리셋되서 다시 시작할수 있게 됬어요!!!!! 
운영자님 진심으로 감사합니다 다시 가보자고!!
그래도 업적은 남아 있으니 업적도 더 늘려주면 감사하겠습니다

### 5/5 — Great Wizard Game

*2023-11-21, version 1.02*

Extremely fun and challenging, action-packed, wizard game that makes you feel like the Avatar, and deserves a LOT more recognition. Basically what everyone else says who enjoys this game, but y’know, since I agree, I’m just saying it too, lol.

My only complaints are a few bugs (i.e. mini map not centered right, and the music output being extremely low quality for some reason - it’d be nice if they fixed that one especially), and also the controller support could use a bit more attention, but these are not INHERENT to the game, and I’m sure will be fixed soon, making this outdated, and likewise won’t disproportionately affect my rating like so many other people like to do for some GODDAMN reason. LIKE, DO PEOPLE NOT KNOW WHAT A REVIEW *IS* THESE DAYS?!

Forgive me, I needed to get that out of my system. Alright, where was I… Oh yeah, great game, definitely recommend it. And I mean like, 5$ for this? I might as well get arrested for robbery, cause that’s a steal in my book.

Oh, on a side note, and as I alluded to above, I do play this with a controller, so I don’t know what the touchscreen experience is like; so you’ll have to look elsewhere for that if you’re one of *those* people (1/2 jk).

### 5/5 — Incredible game, some bugs

*2023-11-15, version 1.02*

Bro this gotta be the craziest mobile game I’ve seen. It’s pretty much the same as the computer version except the controls are a little less intuitive (but it works). PSA you have to manually save if you want to preserve your spells and relics. You do this by clicking the cloak icon in the options.

### 5/5 — 힘들다

*2023-11-14*

너무 피곤한데 몹 피하면서 딜하려니까 스트레스 받는다.. 젊은이들이 해야하는 게임 같다...
