  • monetization
    421 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players criticizing it as overly aggressive and cash grab-oriented. While some users appreciate the minimal presence of ads and the option to progress without spending money, others express frustration over mandatory ads, reduced energy limits, and frequent prompts for in-app purchases, which detract from the overall enjoyment of the game. Overall, the consensus suggests that the monetization approach could benefit from rethinking to enhance player experience.

    • “There's no ads and the in-app purchases are reasonable and non-intrusive.”
    • “On the bright side, it's relatively fun and still progresses quick enough without the need to pay for any in-game purchase.”
    • “Really fun in my opinion, there's no ads, it's not 'pay to win', you can earn different evolutions from just playing matches.”
    • “Simply the biggest problem is the progression, and the monetization around it.”
    • “New update added ads to the free chests and cut the energy points in half and there is no ad-free version.”
    • “This game used to be about talent and luck with optional in-game purchases, now it is purely about how much you spend.”
  • gameplay
    306 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally described as entertaining and engaging, featuring unique mechanics and addictive elements. However, many players express frustration with the energy recharge system, which limits playtime and contributes to a pay-to-win model, making progression feel slow and often tedious. Additionally, issues such as bugs, unbalanced mechanics, and a lack of true multiplayer experiences detract from the overall enjoyment of the game.

    • “Gameplay is fun and the progress of your evos doesn't take too long, and is not too hard.”
    • “The gameplay is fun and intriguing but in every single match since download both opposing players have a huge lead in the battle phase.”
    • “I enjoy the gameplay and the depth of strategies for such a simple concept.”
    • “Gameplay feels very disjointed and gets repetitive very fast.”
    • “The gameplay is boring and doesn't have any strategy.”
    • “Unfortunately now triggers my PTSD because of the drowning mechanic.”
  • stability
    151 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is a significant concern among users, with frequent reports of glitches, freezes, and crashes that disrupt gameplay. Many players express frustration over game-breaking issues, such as opponents becoming invincible or the game failing to register wins, leading to lost progress and unfair losses. While the game has potential and is enjoyable when functioning properly, the overwhelming number of bugs makes it nearly unplayable for many users.

    • “Very nice game, no glitches, no ads.”
    • “The game runs smoothly without any crashes.”
    • “I appreciate the stability; it never lags or freezes.”
    • “In all this while, they still haven't fixed many glitches.”
    • “Game takes too long to load and often freezes during a level.”
    • “It's fun for a while, but really starts glitching as you get up in levels.”
  • story
    140 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story aspect is heavily tied to its mission system, which players find frustrating due to long cooldowns and a reliance on a paywall for progression. Many users express dissatisfaction with the limited number of daily missions and the necessity to spend real money to access certain rewards, leading to a feeling of being stuck and unable to advance without additional purchases. Overall, while the gameplay can be enjoyable, the mission structure and monetization strategies detract significantly from the experience.

    • “The game is super fun to play, I wish the mission reset timer was cut in half though because I find myself finishing them all and then waiting to play for the rest of the day.”
    • “It's an interesting game, but the super slow mission reset, which is the only way to advance, means that you have to spend money to go forward.”
    • “Just wish there was a story mode/journey option and not all timed matches.”
    • “The game is fun, but there is no way I'm paying $7 just to complete a mission.”
    • “Game was good in general, however I noticed it said I had completed missions so I went to collect the rewards and found that I couldn't because I didn't have the pass. The completed mission notification never goes away until you pay for the pass, which made me uninstall the game as it was very frustrating.”
    • “Unfortunately, it's riddled by the same old problems - just let me play as much as I want and don't limit me with energy. Progression is slow and also time-gated with new quests taking a whopping 24 hours to become available.”
  • graphics
    57 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the graphics of the game receive a mixed but generally positive reception, with many users praising the art style, visuals, and cartoonish design. However, some players report performance issues, particularly on lower-end devices, leading to freezing and lag during gameplay. While the graphics are often highlighted as a strong point, there are calls for optimization options to enhance performance during more demanding scenarios.

    • “I'm very pleased with the visuals and the sounds.”
    • “Great graphics!”
    • “It's a really fun game; the graphics are amazing and everything looks so good and well created.”
    • “However, I've noticed that in games that last too long, my phone starts to freeze up, so if there was a way to somehow lower the graphics quality or something to make it playable once there are a lot of evos on the screen, it'll be an easy 5 stars.”
    • “Can there be an option to lower the graphics so I can actually play the game because it breaks and then freezes my tablet for 20 minutes, moving 1 frame per second every 10 seconds?”
    • “This game is horrible; do not play. The graphics are bad, everything's bad, do not play this game.”
  • music
    48 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The reviews highlight a significant demand for music in the game, with many players expressing frustration over the lack of background tunes during gameplay and menus. While some users appreciate the existing music, they often find it too quiet or repetitive, suggesting a need for more variety and volume. Overall, the consensus is that adding engaging music would greatly enhance the gaming experience.

    • “Fun graphics, good music, and excellent gameplay.”
    • “Cute, fun, fast and easy to play and beautiful music which reminds me of Terraria.”
    • “The music is sooo relaxing.”
    • “Honestly, I want to say 5-star game, but the lack of music bothers me.”
    • “There is no background music on the home page or main page, so silent. You need to add cheerful music.”
    • “Neat concept, pretty fun, desperately needs more sound effects and music; the deafening silence almost ruins it.”
  • grinding
    46 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The grinding aspect of the game is widely criticized for being excessively tedious and time-consuming, often requiring players to wait long periods for energy or missions to refresh. Many reviews highlight a frustrating balance between grinding for upgrades and the option to pay for progress, with some players feeling that the game leans heavily towards a pay-to-win model. Overall, while some enjoy the initial gameplay, the prolonged grind and limited rewards detract significantly from the experience, leading to a loss of motivation and enjoyment.

    • “But the grinding aspect of the game does make it tiring, and the quests reloading every 24 hours is too long.”
    • “Fun until you get to higher levels and then the only way to progress is grinding for more than a month for just one upgrade or spend 50 bucks for one upgrade.”
    • “The reward system is bogus; it only allows for a max of 980 coins a day and that's if you play it every hour and a half. The power system is garbage; it's impossible to get the magic gems without grinding so hard it hurts.”
  • humor
    37 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is generally well-received, with many players finding it fun and entertaining, particularly in the early stages. However, some users express frustration with the game's monetization and balance issues, which detracts from the overall comedic experience. While the game features amusing concepts and characters, the humor can diminish as players progress and encounter repetitive gameplay and pay-to-win mechanics.

    • “It's fun and funny it really has a lot of potential.”
    • “Actually a quite funny game.”
    • “It's a funny game with cute characters but also intense action making you think strategically like 'do I sacrifice the big one or use it to sabotage.'”
    • “It's not funny anymore.”
    • “The jokes fell flat and felt forced.”
    • “I expected more clever humor, but it was mostly cringeworthy.”
  • optimization
    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game's optimization is widely criticized, with many users reporting significant lag and performance issues across various devices, even high-end ones. While some players appreciate the gameplay and graphics, the consensus is that serious optimization is needed to enhance the overall experience and reduce performance-related frustrations.

    • “Very engaging, the one thing I have a problem with is the performance; it's a bit laggy on a high-end device and the same on a mid-tier phone.”
    • “Optimize this game first and then it'll get higher stars. I love the gameplay so far, but it's incredibly unoptimized.”
    • “Great game, perfect optimization.”
    • “Also poorly optimized as many screens hitch briefly while loading.”
    • “Needs serious optimization to be playable.”
    • “Optimize this game first and then it'll get higher stars, love the gameplay so far, but it's incredibly unoptimized.”
  • replayability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game's replayability is mixed; while some players appreciate the unique experiences offered by different evolutions, others feel that the game lacks sufficient depth to encourage repeated play.

    • “Great, it has replay value.”
    • “Fun game concept but lacks replayability.”
    • “I found it to be fun; I like that each evolution is different, so it's replayable.”
  • emotional
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users express frustration with the emotional aspect of the game due to technical issues, specifically the lack of responsiveness when touching the screen, which leads to an inability to engage with the game and ultimately results in forfeiting matches. This disconnect diminishes the overall emotional experience and engagement with the game.
