  • gameplay2 mentions

    The gameplay is characterized as a basic, old-school MMO experience focused on spell casting, but it suffers from frequent interruptions due to advertisements in the paid version, leading to frustration among players. Overall, while some enjoy the nostalgic elements, the lack of updates and the presence of ads detract from the overall experience.

    • “The gameplay and land maps were very old school MMO style, reminiscent of classic spell caster games.”
    • “Like I said, I've liked everything I've played by Crescent Moon, but I definitely will not be spending any money on any of them again. A paid version here that they can't be bothered to fix and, unless I want to pay for the game a second time, a working version for the Google Play Store that has gameplay constantly interrupted by advertisements.”
    • “Very basic spell caster, old-style MMO game without the massive multiplayer online aspect. Just the gameplay and land maps were very old school MMO style.”
  • story2 mentions

    The story aspect of the game has received mixed feedback, with some quests failing to meet expectations and players struggling with unclear dialogue and item availability, such as finding a lockpick.

    • “A few of the quests don't work out as expected; I can't find a lockpick for love nor money, and the game has unreadable dialogue.”
  • monetization1 mentions

    Users express frustration with the monetization model, highlighting issues with a paid version that remains unaddressed and a free version plagued by frequent advertisements, leading to a reluctance to spend money on future titles from Crescent Moon.

    • “I've enjoyed everything I've played by Crescent Moon, but I definitely will not be spending any money on any of their games again. There's a paid version that they can't be bothered to fix, and unless I want to pay for the game a second time, the Google Play Store version has gameplay constantly interrupted by advertisements.”
    • “The monetization strategy is frustrating. It feels like the developers prioritize profit over player experience, making it hard to enjoy the game without being bombarded by ads.”
    • “I understand the need for monetization, but the way it's implemented here is excessive. It ruins the overall experience and makes me reluctant to invest any money into the game.”
  • graphics1 mentions

    The graphics are criticized for being cheap and poorly executed, detracting from the overall gameplay experience.

    • “The graphics and gameplay are cheaply and poorly done.”
  • optimization1 mentions

    The optimization of the game appears to be inconsistent, as it runs smoothly in certain areas, such as inside the cave, suggesting that performance issues may not be related to device capabilities.

    • “This is not an issue of device performance since it runs fine inside the cave.”
  • music1 mentions

    The music in the game is highly praised, with many users noting it rivals the acclaimed score of Ravensword, suggesting that fans of Ravensword will likely appreciate this game's soundtrack just as much.

    • “Although Ravensword still has the best music score, if you enjoyed Ravensword, you'll love this at least as much.”
