stability42 negative mentions

  • Cute and fun art style with adorable dragons, providing a relaxing and enjoyable idle clicking experience.
  • No ads or in-app purchases, allowing all players to have an equal playing field without the pressure of spending real money.
  • Easy to pick up and play, offering a good casual time-waster with a simple gameplay loop that encourages taking breaks.
  • Frequent and severe bugs cause nests or dragons to stop generating currency or resources, often freezing progress for hours and ruining event participation.
  • Progression is extremely slow and unbalanced due to the game's original pay-to-win design being stripped of purchases without proper rebalancing, making key currencies like gems and potions too scarce to advance effectively.
  • Lack of ongoing support, updates, and content leads to incomplete gameplay experience, with storyline and events stalling and many players getting stuck or losing interest.

    The game suffers from severe stability issues, frequently freezing for extended periods, glitching, and failing to save progress or count earned currency correctly. These persistent bugs, especially during events, disrupt gameplay and progression, making the experience frustrating and often unplayable. Despite having potential, the game's stability problems significantly undermine its overall enjoyment.

    • “The game freezes at least once per day, usually for several hours.”
    • “Plus the game glitches a lot and doesn't save progress, resets chest counters, etc. Overall a big waste of time.”
    • “Instead it freezes constantly for hours on the timed events, preventing the purchase of upgrades and causing you to fall out of contention for better prizes.”
  • monetization

    The game requires a Netflix login and features no ads or in-app purchases, creating a level playing field. However, it retains a monetization-driven design from its original version, leading to slow progression and frustration since gems, essential for advancement, cannot be purchased. This lack of rebalancing after removing microtransactions results in a broken and unsatisfying gameplay experience.

    • “No ads or in-app purchases meaning everyone is on the same playing field.”
    • “It's free with Netflix and has no ads or in-app purchases.”
    • “No microtransactions!”
    • “It says no in-app purchases, but the game relies heavily on having gems to progress, which is just disabled to buy in this version of the game, but the game design itself is still the same, hence it's even worse since now you can't even progress, not even if you are ready to pay money for it.”
    • “Clearly converted from a cash grab game without rebalancing the gameplay away from pay to win.”
    • “Ripping out microtransactions from an exploitative game still leaves a broken experience.”

    The gameplay is largely criticized for being minimal, repetitive, and heavily reliant on timers and resource waiting rather than engaging mechanics. Many users report frequent bugs, poor design choices like a tedious clicking mechanic, and a pay-to-win structure left over from its original model that detracts from the overall experience. While briefly enjoyable, the gameplay quickly becomes frustrating and lacks depth or meaningful progression.

    • “Gameplay is great!”
    • “I have full understanding for some bugs but this is heavily impacting the gameplay.”
    • “Some of the game mechanics stop working after a while, like the earning cycles.”
    • “Eventually degrades into a few minutes of play followed by waiting for resources to slowly trickle in from the game (not gameplay reward resources but 'potion' resources you get for checking in every so often).”
    • “There are critical gameplay bugs that have been reported for months that are not being fixed.”
    • “No gameplay except frantic clicking every so often and waiting for timers to fill.”
  • story

    The game features a charming initial story and characters but suffers from early stagnation, with the narrative abruptly stopping after a short progression and no new updates or events expanding the plot. Players commonly report reaching a story dead-end, leaving the adventure incomplete and the content feeling abandoned.

    • “It does have an incomplete story and a long standing 'more days soon!' banner.”
    • “Cute characters, fun storyline.”
    • “The kids love this game and I don't mind it for a bit of idle gaming, however I think we've maybe got to the end of it or something as the storyline completely stopped (ruining the adventure aspect of opening the gate and getting instructions for the wizard etc). There's no more 'days' and it just keeps saying 'more dragons coming soon' but it's been like that forever.”
    • “My big issue is there are only 25 levels in the main game, and it starts off with a decent little plot that ends up going nowhere.”
    • “There are no more days coming so once you pass day 30 the game basically ends and they never finish the story.”

    The graphics feature a cute, distinctive art style reminiscent of Craig McCracken's "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends," which some may find appealing and fitting for a younger audience, though it might require some adjustment for others. Overall, the unique and themed visuals stand out positively among clicker games.

    • “The art style is very cute.”
    • “It's a nice art style and themed so differently than most clickers; it actually sated my never-ending need to click or tap away my problems.”
    • “The art style takes some adjusting, though being in the Craig McCracken 'Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends' style suggests it is targeted towards kids.”
  • grinding

    Grinding in the game is described as slow, tedious, and heavily clicker-based rather than engaging dragon farming. Players find the progression repetitive and overly grindy.

    • “It's not really a dragon farming game; it's 100% a 'clicker' game like Adventure Capitalist.”
    • “Slow moving and tedious.”
    • “Grindy.”
  • replayability

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 100% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Replayability is potentially enhanced by the game's dream sequence side quests, but a persistent bug preventing these from appearing significantly detracts from this aspect.

    The humor in the game is praised for its hilarious dragons, providing enjoyable and wifi-free fun, though some find it a bit repetitive. Overall, it is considered very entertaining and worth playing.

    • “It's a little repetitive, but the hilarious dragons are amazing!”
    • “This game is wifi free fun and funny; this is the best game that I have played. Download Netflix and get it for free.”
  • optimization

    The game’s optimization appears lacking, as it does not run smoothly on a recently released, updated 2023 phone despite other games performing well on the same device.
