A great deity created the world named Engardin, leaving four goliaths before her departure. The Goliaths abided by their different divine callings and upheld the order and flow of this world. Hence, the lives in Engardin reincarnated and multiplied. Humans were the last creation, and their ever-expanding ambitions led to a protracted war against the Goliaths. Engardin was engulfed in flames, until a huge explosion known as "The Razing" devastated the Holy Grounds of mankind and brought a swift end to the conflict. But the divine order was broken, and lives withered away. The age of mankind came to an end. The survivors of the conflict scattered across Engardin. Severed from the Well of Mankind and unable to reincarnate, they banded together to form settlements. Years have passed since this great cataclysm, and the remaining human settlements have been suddenly assaulted by mystic forces. Renee, a young amnesiac girl and student of Aros, was the lone survivor of the attack on her village. Determined to recover her forgotten memories and locate her lost mentor, she bids farewell to her destroyed village to embark on a journey that will inexplicably set into motion a series of events that will determine the fate of this new world.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Afterimage Mobile at fortnightly against Implosion's every 5 months. Afterimage Mobile also leads on chart position (#189 vs unranked). Implosion's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (914 vs 25). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Implosion holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Implosion has 914 ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Implosion's written reviews are positive against 76% of Afterimage Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Implosion ships an update every 5 months, Afterimage Mobile fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
