“There are many different things to do (I won't go into detail due to spoilers) this game is amazing and I hope the development leads to more heroes and story.”
“I just finished all of the basic training quests and I still do not want to stop.”

The reviews indicate that the game features a significant amount of grinding, which can be both enjoyable and tedious for players. While many appreciate the ability to progress without spending money, some find the grind excessive, especially in the mid to late game. Overall, the grinding aspect is seen as a double-edged sword: it can enhance engagement for dedicated players but may lead to boredom or frustration for others.
“Not too grindy, but not too boring; it felt easy.”
“Pity about an otherwise solid 3, possibly 4 star pay-to-get-ahead-faster game where old-fashioned grinding and persistence could eventually get you to the top.”
“Tediously fusing/reinforcing gear, waiting around in a rebirth loop for dungeon tickets for the next higher number repeat that's still not going to drop the rare promotion item... silver seems ignorable altogether, but has so much activity dedicated to it.”
“It does get quite grindy to make any progress in midgame+, especially if you don't spend any real-life money.”

Overall, the game's optimization is mixed; while some players report smooth performance and enjoyment, others experience significant lag and stuttering, especially in larger squads or at lower settings. There are suggestions for further improvements, particularly in zoom functionality and translation, indicating that while the game is not in a pre-alpha state, it still requires optimization to enhance the overall experience.
“The game runs smoothly and without any lags.”
“The game is a pretty complex auto stat building game; everyone has their preferences for builds, just like Skyrim. Build your own, be unique! I would recommend this game to anyone; it is extremely fun and fairly optimized. It doesn't seem like a pre-alpha or beta type game. 10/10 great job!”
“(very small) but maybe it is optimized for tablets or people with smaller hands.”
“I noticed some stuttering in the game, but I do not know if this is due to the coding, my internet speed, or phone.”
“Was good until I got a full squad of 9 and the game became too slow to play, even with performance level down to the lowest settings and FPS down to the smallest amount, with way too much lag; it's unplayable.”
“Very bad experience, total waste of money. Please create a better game quality and improve the gameplay, as the performance is very poor.”

Reviewers express a desire for enhanced character development, suggesting that the game would benefit from introducing more heroes with unique skills and abilities, rather than having all warriors share the same abilities. This change could enrich the RPG experience by adding distinct passive abilities for each character.
“The character development in this game is impressive, with each hero having a unique backstory that adds depth to their abilities and motivations.”
“I love how the characters evolve throughout the game, making choices that impact their growth and relationships with others.”
“The variety of skills and abilities for each character really enhances the RPG experience, allowing for diverse playstyles and strategies.”
“The only thing I can see that may improve is having more heroes with individual skills. At the moment, all warriors have the same ability; only their character design is different. This would add a true RPG element, including unique passive abilities for each hero.”
“Character development feels very shallow; there’s a lack of depth in the heroes' backstories and motivations, making it hard to connect with them.”
“I was expecting a rich character progression system, but it feels like a missed opportunity. The characters don’t evolve in meaningful ways throughout the game.”
