  • graphics

    146 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's graphics receive widespread praise for their vibrant, polished, and beautiful art style, fluid animations, and distinct character designs, often compared favorably to top-tier mobile games. However, some users note performance issues such as lag, heavy resource use on older devices, and lack of adjustable graphic settings, which can impact gameplay experience. Overall, the visuals are considered a major strength, though optimization improvements are desired.

    • “A totally great RPG with beautiful art style and fluid animations.”
    • “Amazing graphics and engaging gameplay... one of the best mobile games I have played this year.”
    • “No option to turn down graphics, but I'm not even sure that's the issue: my phone runs much more impressive looking games.”
    • “Please add lower graphic option for my Snapdragon 625 to smooth gameplay.”
    • “Not possible to lower graphic settings, thus making gameplay difficult and crappy on older phones.”
  • story

    121 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is generally praised for its engaging narrative, well-crafted characters, and high-quality narrated scenes, which motivate players to progress. However, players frequently encounter issues like rapidly increasing mission difficulty, lack of sufficient rewards for replaying missions, repetitive and buggy quests, and paywalls that hinder smooth story progression. Despite its captivating storyline and great artwork, technical problems and frustrating progression mechanics detract from the overall experience.

    • “It doesn't feel overly grindy and the narrated story scenes are so good, it makes you want to progress to see where the story goes.”
    • “Great story, characters, and gameplay.”
    • “The characters are fun, the story is interesting and it's a pleasure to play.”
    • “Story seems boring at the start, so I didn't make it very far without losing interest on top of claiming issues.”
    • “You'll quickly hit a wall in story mode, and the arena system is completely trash.”
    • “However, the story mode is so buggy, so it's not really worth investing.”
  • gameplay

    79 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally praised for being smooth, engaging, and visually appealing with fun turn-based mechanics and satisfying loops. However, many users highlight issues such as a restrictive stamina/energy system, long loading times, occasional bugs, and a sometimes steep progression curve, which can hinder the overall experience. Despite these drawbacks, the game's mechanics and tactical elements are positively noted, especially by those who enjoy similar RPG titles.

    • “You can tell that this world was designed with love and the gameplay is great too.”
    • “Smooth gameplay and awesome heroes; if you liked games like Heroes Charge or Idle Heroes, you'll love this game.”
    • “Excellent gameplay, good graphics, nice loot, monsters aplenty to collect and slay.”
    • “The mechanics for damage and other aspects are a bit screwy and frustrating.”
    • “Too much loading and lag makes the gameplay feel very slow and boring.”
    • “The stamina system is the worst mechanic in the game—slow to recharge and no experience gained from loot when spent.”
  • stability

    49 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game frequently suffers from bugs, glitches, and freezing issues, especially during loading screens, battles, and key features like guild donation and arena. Despite its fun gameplay and graphics, the stability problems significantly impact user experience, with many reporting crashes, unresponsive buttons, and server issues since recent updates.

    • “Every week there are major bugs and glitches.”
    • “The guild chat and donation system seems very buggy.”
    • “The quests won't accurately track and every time I fight in the arena, the game freezes.”
  • grinding

    40 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Grinding in the game is often described as tedious, lengthy, and necessary to progress, with slow experience gain and high upgrade costs making advancement challenging especially for free-to-play players. While some find the grind enjoyable and rewarding, many criticize the poor economy, frequent grinding walls, and reliance on microtransactions, which can diminish overall enjoyment. Recent updates have worsened grinding conditions by reducing rewards and increasing resource costs.

    • “You can replay every mission for free but you only get XP and no in-game currency (broken farming). To level up a character from 0-1 takes at minimum 90 XP and farming gets you 19 XP per quest.”
    • “All in-game content costs are way too high (leveling heroes, skills, shop prices, level difficulty, loading time) and experience points obtained have been reduced, making farming levels to level up useless.”
    • “It was tolerable before but now that you replaced energy with energy2, grinding is even worse with lower gold returns and lower hero token drops.”
  • monetization

    21 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Monetization in the game is widely criticized as aggressive and primarily a cash grab, with frequent non-rewarding ads and expensive microtransactions that encourage pay-to-win mechanics. While some users appreciate optional ads and fair microtransactions, many find the monetization intrusive, grind-heavy, and frustrating, significantly impacting the overall experience.

    • “Best game ever played.....there are no ads and best gaming controls”
    • “A great looking and great playing game with fair microtransactions”
    • “No reason to spend money and no ads.”
    • “Just a cash grab game.”
    • “Dont play this, this game is nothing more than a cash grab that tries to make you pay no matter what.”
    • “Very expensive in-game purchases, obviously pay to win.”
  • humor

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's humor is well-received, praised for its clever, lighthearted charm and unique character personalities that add to the overall enjoyable experience. Players appreciate the blend of funny elements with superb animations and a mythology-inspired setting.

    • “Superb battle animations, lots of humor, cute fighting noises, cute characters with an old Greek/mythology kind of feel and pets to equip.”
    • “Simple UI, humorous, and the graphics/animations are top notch.”
    • “The characters' personalities are all unique and some even funny.”
  • music

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

A few users had negative experiences with overly loud or jarring sounds.

    • “Well-orchestrated, original music throughout the game.”
    • “I love every aspect about this game; the graphics and music are awesome!”
    • “Amazing game, artwork, character design... I just wish the background music was louder; I can barely hear music in battle.”

    • “It's super fun and kinda addictive but the only problem is... where's the music?”
    • “Amazing game, artwork, character design... I just wish the background music was louder... I can barely hear music in battle.”
