  • gameplay270 mentions

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players appreciating its simplicity and user-friendly mechanics, while others criticize it for being overly automatic and lacking depth.

    • “Great gameplay, great characters, and you don't have to spend much to get strong, just time and dedication.”
    • “Gameplay is smooth and eccentric.”
    • “Update: has so much potential to be a great game but falls short in a few areas: broken mechanics/aspects, too much uniformity in itemized sets leaving very little room for creative builds, the period between events is far too long, very little incentive for transactions or too pricey/no low ticket items for a game you'd want to actually spend money on, tooltips are confusing a majority of the time, items needed to grow are hard to come by and more.”
    • “The gameplay is utter trash, mostly plays itself with little to no player effect other than building teams and pressing flashy specials to win while the writing is poorly translated or written by a five-year-old who's seen High School of the Dead.”
    • “Unfortunately, the gameplay isn't that special for a gacha game, and the storyline is too simple for me despite the good zombie hunting premise.”
  • story212 mentions

    The game's story has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it engaging and enjoyable, particularly praising the character designs and artwork. However, many users express disappointment over the story's lack of depth and progression, especially after the initial chapters, with some noting that it becomes repetitive and bland. Overall, while the graphics and character concepts are well-received, the narrative often feels underdeveloped and inconsistent, leading to a less satisfying experience for some players.

    • “This is hands down one of the best games I've played, the art and animations are really on point and the storyline keeps you wanting to know what happens in the next part. The characters are really fascinating and the gameplay is totally amazing; this game is a real must-have.”

    • “The story is pretty good and the art is unreal.”

    • “The story also seems to just drop off after chapter 4.”
    • “I like the game but can't help but feel it was rushed; the story disappeared after a few chapters, you don't know what's happening, and it just becomes a grind for newer units and making them stronger.”
  • stability58 mentions

    The game is widely reported to be unstable, with frequent freezes, crashes, and various glitches that disrupt gameplay. Many users express frustration over the game's tendency to freeze during critical moments, such as battles or loading screens, which detracts from the overall experience.

  • monetization27 mentions

    The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the overwhelming presence of microtransactions and ads. While some users appreciate the option to play for free and earn rewards through grinding, others feel that the game heavily incentivizes spending money, making it difficult to progress without paying. Overall, the monetization approach is seen as aggressive, leading to a perception of the game as a cash grab.

    • “With little to no ads for a large time played, Harbingers is a pick up you won't regret.”
    • “A very well made game considering it is meant to be a gacha, which of course involves microtransactions, but I have played completely free so far and have gotten quite a lot of the good characters just by grinding and getting lucky spins.”
    • “Only issue is maybe just a tad heavy on the microtransactions.”
    • “Roughly $30,000 USD... the game bombards you with continuous offers and microtransactions at almost every loading screen. It sets up events which makes it impossible to reach even the 1st milestone without paying (e.g., the newest Halloween event), and the combat/gameplay is mostly based around idle play which you have little to no control over.”
    • “Very expensive in-app purchases.”
    • “The game forces you to watch ads in order to get extra gear, is super laggy, and expects you to pay to win a lot.”
  • music23 mentions

    The music in the game receives mixed feedback from users, with many praising the graphics and overall aesthetic while expressing a desire for more diverse and engaging soundtracks and sound effects. Some players noted issues with missing voicelines and repetitive sounds that detracted from their experience, while others highlighted specific tracks they enjoyed and wanted to access outside the game. Overall, while the music is appreciated by some, there is a clear demand for improvements and additional content in this area.

    • “Amazing graphics and music.”
    • “Beautiful art style, soothing music, gorgeous and smooth animation, and interesting gameplay. Very fair gacha probability and a nice reward system.”
    • “I love the art and music so far.”
    • “I can't seem to hear some of the characters' voicelines and/or music when activating their hyper skills, especially Amadeus.”
    • “Seems like a well-built and well-drawn game, but there is a clicking sound that just comes randomly every 2 seconds. It got me so annoyed I don't want to play without music or sounds, so I uninstalled!”
    • “The reason I rated you 3 is because of its lack of sound effects. Whenever a player makes a summon, there should be some background music to enhance the experience.”
  • grinding20 mentions

    Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be a mixed experience; while some appreciate the integration of auto-farming and the ability to progress without spending money, others note that the mid-game becomes significantly grindy, especially for character ranking and gear acquisition. The game offers a fun early experience, but the transition to more demanding grinding can be rough, with some players expressing frustration over the lack of replayable stages for farming. Overall, it is seen as a well-designed gacha game that balances fun and grind, with many enjoying the auto-play features.

    • “Stages cannot be replayed, so no farming.”
    • “The PvE got easier, but everything else got harder, and ranking up characters is now really grindy.”

  • optimization6 mentions

    Overall, players express frustration with the game's optimization, citing issues like screen tearing, stuttering, and lag during character level-ups, which detracts from the experience.

    • “Great game, just needs further optimization to make it run smoother.”
    • “Everything runs smoothly.”
    • “I can accept that you can lose to a party almost 3 times weaker than yours (although this kind of scenario is suitable for strategies rather than idle RPG), but I can't accept lags even when you level up a character - performance optimization is required.”
    • “It doesn't seem like the developers are interested in improving the interface of the game. When special animations are activated, there's a lot of screen tearing and stuttering.”
    • “I really like this game, but it is hard for me to play because of the optimization.”
    • “I can accept that you can lose to a party almost 3 times weaker than yours (although this kind of scenario is more suitable for strategies rather than idle RPG), but I can't accept lags even when you level up a character - performance optimization is required.”
  • emotional2 mentions

  • replayability1 mentions

    Users express frustration with the lack of a clear and accessible tutorial, which hinders replayability. They suggest that separating the tutorial from the main gameplay or making it replayable would enhance the overall experience.

    • “The game lacks any real incentive to replay. Once you've completed the main story, there's little to draw you back in.”
    • “After finishing the game, I found no reason to go back. The choices I made didn't seem to impact the outcome enough to warrant a second playthrough.”
