    • “The graphics are beautiful and the controls.”

    • “I would say the graphics are okay but could be better.”
  • monetization449 mentions

However, some players express frustration over the frequency of ad prompts and the reliance on ads for character progression, suggesting a balance could be improved.

    • “The whole purpose of the game is to get you to watch ads so that you can collect more characters.”
    • “It's a fun game, but let down by persistent requests to view ads for bonus points.”
    • “You can tell they put a lot of time into it and don't crowd you with ads.”
  • gameplay291 mentions

    • “Cool game with amazing effects, but there is no storyline.”
