- “The art style is adorable, and the way the quest system is designed is very effective.”
- “All in all fun with nicely done graphics.”
- “I have been searching for something to get where you: *build a town *battle monsters *and it's medieval themed. Many other apps I've tried, like Greed for Glory, have terrible graphics, are kind of a scam, and quickly become boring. Some are too gross looking (some show blood, bleh), too scary (I'm easily scared), or just plain boring.”

The story aspect of the game is described as charming and engaging, with cute graphics and an effective quest system. However, players express frustration over the lack of clarity in quest progression and the need for real money to obtain essential items, which detracts from the overall experience. There are calls for improvements in earning mechanics and a more cohesive plot to enhance gameplay.
- “Cute graphics, neat story.”
- “The art style is adorable, and the way the quest system is designed is very effective.”
- “Awesome needs a plot and more weapons but it's still awesome.”
- “There are issues building up parts of the town because you have to have special items which you can’t get until you complete a special quest, but you never know when those come or unless you want to buy the item with your real money.”
- “You need money for buildings, upgrades, your heroes' equipment, sending your heroes to attack monsters... there are even some quests that drop mobs into your town, attacking villagers constantly while your heroes aren't strong enough to fight them off.”
- “Because of the inability to connect to GameCircle, I have started this game over several times, losing all the holiday quest items I previously obtained.”

Players note that grinding in the game requires significant time investment, often several hours, to gather essential resources through farming or purchasing with hard-to-earn diamonds. The limited yield from farming makes the process feel tedious, especially for those unwilling to spend real money on in-game currency.
- “If you have not played the game yet, the one thing they don't tell you is that you have to restock your stores with resources that you can only get by farming. The most resources you will get out of the best thing you can grow is 350, which is not a lot, or you can buy them with diamonds, which are hard to get without spending real money.”
