Bloated and repetitive.. on average 20 ads a day and it still takes a full week to make a difference... 3 weeks in, just now being able to unlock characters... but it takes 16 hours for a "recruit bar" to go by (nearly) 10%... I just clicked a character i didn't want on accident...have to wait 16 hours to go for the one i actually want. This game is only great if you want to waste your time and keep your phone on all night to farm. Ads arent necessary but needed for progression

Just started the game and within 30 minutes watched 16 ads, 4 of which were mandatory to progress the quest line. And these are just the ones that get shoved in your face, e.g. if you finish daily tasks you can watch at least 8 ads to get the rewards for already completing them. Not to finish them, just that you can collect rewards. I've seen a lot of greedy games but good god this takes the #1 spot

Honestly, it was fun at first, but then you get to a level where your pets are useless, your attack, no matter how much you upgrade, doesn't make a dent. The summon doesn't give you anything new.. I think the DEVS should balance the game more and give new items, pets, and abilities. It gets to a point where you just log in once a day to do dungeons and leave.

Only thing this game has going for it is the gorgeous art style. There's way too many required ads to play as a free user: - 3 ads to unlock the second char in the game - To claim mail - To claim half of the daily rewards, even though you have completed the task - To use dungeons after 3 runs, even though you have keys for them - For a lot of extra summons, which you will desperately need if you don't do the other ads 10min a day to claim everything you can, then you just watch ads and dont play

It's a time killer, graphics and music is nice but you need money or be willing to watch a lot of ads to avoid slow progression. Also a lot of elements to it which is slightly confusing at first. Edit: not all games are for everyone I didn't like the idle model and wanted to be more active but that was held back by waiting around and ads which I didn't find fun.

The animation for this Idle RPG survival game is beautiful, however the mechanics and features are extremely poor and repetitive. They are very stingy with gems to unlock equipment, weapons, pets, and skills. Everything is pushing you to pay to play/win. There's only 1-2 things that you can collect every day to build up to a SS Tier hero. It's filled with pushing you to watch ads to do more dungeons or complete quests. So many other better idle games available compared to this.

Well.. basically pay 30 dollars to remove adds- or be forced to watch them every 10 seconds. Complete a task? Watch ad to claim reward.. wanna unlock this? Watch this ad. I mean sure the graphics are pleasing and it runs well.. but literally you'll be watching adds more than 50% of the time. Unless you pay 30 $. Oh and you want to increase damage and gold and experience? That's 4.99$.. otherwise have fun watching ads. If you're looking for a idle game.. find a different one unless you love ads.

Honestly it's idle, I understand that it's an idle game.. but when I'm going AFK for 3 days straight coming back to literally the same amount of gold I can make in about 5 minutes of actually playing the game which still is not a lot, it gets old really fast. I quit on it after a month. Uninstalled. The ad crisis is another issue, but also, the developers reply is AN AUTOMATED BOT.

Awesome looking game, but so many Ad Options. I get it, you don't NEED to click the ads, but it feels like to do Anything beyond the 1 or 2 daily freebie you have to click ads. Every quest, every dungeon, every summon, every daily quest, every option.. (click here if you want to do it) I think developers forgot ads sometimes last an entire Minute. I had a play session where I watched more ads then I actually played. Also of course there is a remove ad payment option .

3 things: 1) it's a botton holder to level up your character, and the more advanced you are, the stronger the enemies become. 2) I haven't watched one ad over the past 3 days to level up my character, equipment, or pets [I'm not subscribed either]. 3) it is an idle mobile game. So, if you do not have unlimited data, it burns data and drains the battery
