The game's story is generally well-received, with many players appreciating its engaging narrative and cute graphics. However, frustrations arise from the difficulty of completing quests and expeditions, often requiring significant time or monetary investment, which detracts from the overall enjoyment of the storyline. Players express a desire for more accessible quests and longer timeframes to fully experience the story without the pressure of in-game purchases.
“The storyline is great and I love having the mahjong games to play plus finding your way through the rest of it.”
“I love the combination between the quest and mahjong.”
“It's a fun little game of mahjong with some childish storylines thrown in.”
“The quests have become boring.”
“The problem is the expeditions have too many quests with not enough time to complete for the average user, unless you spend $1000's on this game.”
“It's very little and if you want to beat the whole 5 stages of each story you must pay... also the dungeons have ridiculous too little time to complete them except if you are a genius.”

The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the overwhelming number of ads that interrupt gameplay, often lasting 30 seconds or more. Many players express frustration over the intrusive nature of these ads, which appear after nearly every level and can lead to game crashes, diminishing the overall enjoyment. While some appreciate the option to watch ads for bonuses, the excessive reliance on ads and in-app purchases has led to a perception of the game as a cash grab, prompting many to consider uninstalling.
“I like the game, and I don't have any problem with ads as long as it gives powers, but the problem with this game is there are almost no ads and its loading time is also very high, for that I have to wait a lot.”
“Love that you can play this game with multiple side quests and don't have to make in-app purchases to actually win levels.”
“Keeps you interested without pushing too hard for in-app purchases.”
“I stopped playing because the ads are annoying.”
“You now have to watch ads for the wheel spins, which is a bummer; it used to be without them.”
“The whole game is based around microtransactions. In order to get far in expeditions, be ready to dish out a lot of money because the amount of stars you get is not enough to even get the first stage done, let alone all 5.”

Gameplay reviews are mixed, with many players enjoying the variety and fun mechanics, but expressing frustration over repetitive level designs, slow progression, and the introduction of ads. While some appreciate the beautiful graphics and engaging storyline, others report issues with glitches, lag, and a perceived need to spend money to advance. Overall, the core gameplay is seen as enjoyable, but technical problems and monetization strategies detract from the experience for many users.
“I love the storyline, colors, characters, gameplay, graphics.”
“Love the fact that it practically offers three different kinds of gameplay in one game.”
“Great gameplay elements collide together for a grand adventure of fun!”
“However, the mechanics of how you advance to new levels mean that you can end up playing the same layout many times in a row to win the randomly awarded item you need, which gets boring fast.”
“Gameplay is slow, rewards are glitchy, and the regeneration of power and costs of use for all of the side projects are frustrating.”
“And forces you to spend money if you want to get any advanced gameplay.”

Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be tedious and frustrating, particularly due to long wait times for resources and the repetitive nature of side quests. Many feel that the current quests lack engagement and that the farming mechanics are poorly implemented, leading to wasted materials and a diminished overall experience.
“This gets very tedious and irritating, especially if you don't get the required piece when you play the level.”
“The adventure quest gets tedious after a while as you need to wait a long time for your MP to boost up again (i.e., 200 MP and you can only go a few steps before waiting 1.5 hours for it to fill again).”
“Interesting game with a lousy experience on sub-expedition quest features... Farming requests to build bridges should start when farming begins and not only until the bridges are discovered or when the main quest ends... waste of farming materials...”
