While some acknowledge improvements in certain areas, the overwhelming consensus is that the game suffers from significant technical issues that need urgent attention.

  • monetization
    27 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players expressing frustration over the reliance on in-app purchases to progress in the story and access new realms.

Overall, players feel that the current pay-to-win mechanics detract from the gaming experience, and there is a strong desire for more balanced monetization approaches.

  • character development
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Character development in the game is praised for its perfect design and alignment with epic tales like the Ramayana and Mahabharata, though some players feel that the character dialogue could be more culturally relevant, particularly for Hindi speakers. While the overall character design is appreciated, there are mixed feelings about its authenticity, with some players preferring traditional designs.

    • “It is a wonderful game; the graphics, the voice dubbing, the background music, the storyline, and character design are all just perfect. It could have been more interesting for us Hindi speakers if the characters spoke in Hindi, as that would have given us a better and more realistic experience.”
    • “This game is really fun to play. The character designs are done so perfectly, but I personally like the old design of Duryodhan. This game is properly based on our epic tales like Ramayana and Mahabharata. The developers should add some more cards and also some new heroes. Overall, this game is good.”
    • “Good gameplay, but the character design is not very Indian, which gives a negative impression.”
  • replayability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's replayability is somewhat uncertain for the overall story, but players find the initial chapters engaging enough to consider replaying. The campaign offers good replay value, particularly due to the unique play styles of different heroes, encouraging multiple playthroughs.

  • humor
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is derived from its unbalanced mechanics, where players find it amusingly frustrating to witness the extreme disparity in damage output, leading to a lack of genuine competition.
