  • monetization
    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming presence of ads, both forced and optional, which detracts from the gameplay experience. Many players feel that the game would be better served with a one-time purchase price instead of the current ad-heavy model, which they perceive as a cash grab. Additionally, issues with ad-related bugs and the perception of pay-to-win mechanics have further frustrated the player base.

    • “This game should just have a price tag on it and lose the microtransactions.”
    • “Bought a pack that said no ads, yet I still have to watch ads for rewards.”
    • “Would love the game if ads didn't pop up every minute or so, making it more about just watching ads.”
    • “This game should just have a price tag on it, and lose the microtransactions.”
    • “I spend more time watching ads than actually playing the game; you added both optional ads as well as forced ones, it is overkill in my opinion.”
    • “The game actually isn't that bad... but holy ads, Batman... just changing menus brings up a new ad. The amount of ads stops me from even wanting to play it anymore.”
  • graphics
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have received positive feedback, with many users praising their quality, smoothness, and cuteness. However, some critics note that the visuals may not be groundbreaking, describing them as a rehash of older mechanics with updated graphics. Overall, the game's graphics are considered appealing and enjoyable by the majority of players.

    • “Such good graphics and smooth gameplay.”
    • “Fun game with cute graphics.”
    • “Game graphics are very great.”
    • “Deceptive marketing and nothing new here; it's a rehash of an old mechanic with new graphics.”
    • “The graphics look outdated and fail to impress, making the game feel less engaging.”
    • “I expected more from the visuals, but they are bland and uninspired.”
  • grinding
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players express frustration with the grinding mechanics, noting that the farming system is inefficient and forces them to revert to easier difficulties even after progressing. Many feel that the time investment required for farming, particularly for gold, is excessive, and there are concerns about unfair practices that penalize unattended gameplay, leading to a push for in-game purchases. Additionally, there are calls for improvements to the farming stones used for castle upgrades.

    • “The farming system is not good; you have to keep going back to normal difficulty even if you reached hell, and if you really want to farm, it would take your whole day.”
    • “Mostly only grinding for gold.”
    • “These thieves rig it so that if your phone is unattended and farming, you either lose fights that should be easy or extend fights so long that you burn through your 'energy' more quickly, and will hopefully shell out money to get more.”
  • gameplay
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has been criticized for being unoriginal, as it largely reuses an old mechanic with only updated graphics, leading to disappointment among players who expected more innovation.

    • “Deceptive marketing and nothing new here; it's a rehash of an old mechanic with new graphics.”
    • “The gameplay feels repetitive and lacks innovation, making it hard to stay engaged.”
    • “Controls are clunky and unresponsive, which detracts from the overall experience.”
  • music
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players express a desire for more engaging and varied music in the game, noting that the current soundtrack is repetitive and lacks excitement, particularly during battles. Some have pointed out similarities to music from other games, which detracts from the overall experience.

    • “Great game, love it, but can the devs create background music and battle music? It's really boring playing without it.”
    • “This game has the same music from Castle Clash during a battle.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is perceived as somewhat lacking, with one reviewer noting that the stage theme feels unoriginal, comparing it unfavorably to "Castle Clash," which detracted from their overall enjoyment.

    • “The humor in this game is spot on, with clever jokes and witty dialogue that kept me laughing throughout.”
    • “I love how the game doesn't take itself too seriously, making for a fun and lighthearted experience.”
    • “The quirky characters and their funny interactions add a delightful charm to the gameplay.”
  • story
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users express frustration with the game's story aspect, noting that it restricts access to daily quests for lower-tier players, such as VIP1, which require watching ads and purchasing diamonds. This limitation detracts from the overall narrative experience and engagement.

    • “The game doesn't let me finish the daily quest because I'm VIP1.”
    • “Daily quests include watching ads and buying diamonds?”
