| 2024-09-03 |  | | The game is still decent in most regards. However, their response for forcing you to wait 24 hours was to just ask your friends on facebook to send you a key of which you need 3 to continue playing. Now that facebook is no longer working on this game, there is no way to skip the wait other than paying $10. The game also uses an energy system that I wont hold against since it was just common in the era it was developed, but the game IS playable today and none of the mechanics have been adjusted. |
| 2024-02-01 |  | | The game is unsecure and needs to be updated for the most recent Android versions. It also requires Facebook to save progression (which I played in the past), but the app is no longer available/supported on Facebook. Lastly, the game last updated in 2018, so I dont expect this to change. Was a fun game when it lasted. |
| 2023-02-05 |  | | This is a fantastic game. It's one of the only games I've played in the past 2 years that has felt like a real free, fun to play, fun game. Everyone else has spammed me with pay walls, and constant advertising, "watch an ad to get double the reward" etc. This, does not have that, and I LOVE it for that. Honestly that and the writing is goofy and fun, and just an all around enjoyable game. Wish more phone games took after this style. |
| 2022-08-16 |  | | Amazing game - A Few Issues 1. If you jump to another app, and then back to the game, the game loses a few frames. Not incredibly noticeable though. 2. There's a quest, Quest #129, "Jafar-Out". The text could be interpreted as racist. The text could imply that the person of colour is that colour because of sunburn. I don't believe this was the intention. |
| 2022-04-27 |  | | Downloaded the game, again, because I was bored, played a few arena matches, only a few because of an error that wouldn't let me enter the PVP mode. I've checked a few hours later and the error still persists. I know that devs have abandoned the game but they could've left it in a better state. |
| 2022-02-27 |  | | Excellent game, very addictive. However I found one major bug, if you sprung for the upgrade, your wins in pvp no longer count, I keep getting a "lives count" error. I beat the game and there's not much to do now but grind to get all the equipment. |
| 2021-08-16 |  | | A really fun game, tons of items for customization, cool artworks, and great for time killing. But the minus is the game UI often to bug after some battles, it makes some of the function buttons and menus not working properly. To fix the bug, I must often restarting the game and it's so annoying |
| 2021-06-06 |  | | Love it, I play AQ3D as well so this is a great time killer when I can't jump into that instead. The only thing I'd really like to see is a blocking mechanic. Like some shield gems we connect to block. Either that or dodging, if you want it to make more sense with a mage character as well. Other than that, great game. The title is a little corny but it's whatever. It does need to be optimized for taller phones, though. Right now I have dead space at the top and bottom on my S20+. |
| 2020-12-12 |  | | Came back for the nostalgia. Found out why I stopped playing. The energy system is meagre when this game starts to involve a lot of grinding like why should I slay the same opponent 20 times in one quest? Nothing much compelling so this is a game you'd be satisfied for a week and stop playing. There really aren't any bugs I've encountered nor big lag. Many recurring monsters that looks exactly the same throughout the game like I'd be pleased with them customised differently at least. |
| 2020-09-25 |  | | Pros: No ads, no premium power ups, cute custom character, option to purchase game outright. Cons: Energy system with a very outdated facebook integration (pester your friends for more energy!), overall just feels and looks outdated. The lack of diagonal matches makes gameplay kinda unsatisfying. |
