    • “Fun game, no ads popping up.”
    • “The game was good and all but -2 stars for the 12 ads daily because it would make it really hard to grind daily as it's very time-consuming and you'll be kind of left out when you don't do it.”

    • “I would have supported the game with a monthly pass if it meant getting an ad-free experience.”

While the game has potential, it is often compared unfavorably to other gacha games, leading to mixed feelings about its originality and long-term engagement.

  • graphics11 mentions

    • “Fun game killer graphics awesome story.”
    • “I love the art style!”

    • “Love the graphics and the characters, but it is the slowest progressing game ever.”
    • “Plenty of better graphic games with half-naked girls, but this one has the same concept and no loading times.”
  • story9 mentions

    The game's story has received mixed reviews, with some players enjoying its humor and engaging characters, particularly in a unique duck-themed context. However, others have noted issues such as grammar errors and a lack of progression, leading to boredom after initial enjoyment. Overall, while the storyline is appreciated for its creativity and fun elements, it suffers from pacing and gameplay mechanics that can detract from the experience.

    • “So far in a couple of days of play, no problems or complaints; pretty solid and decent storyline and characters. Will update later, that's why only 4 stars.”
    • “And the storyline is great.”
    • “Lol, I love this; famous characters in duck version, good story, can't wait to see more duck.”
    • “Some silly grammar errors appear throughout the whole story, but clearly it wasn't started in English.”
    • “Been playing the game for a month and for the first 1-2 weeks of the game it is good and addicting, but beyond that it gets boring, especially with the 12-hour idle resource system. It's basically useless, and you only get resources like gold and feathers from quests. To be honest, it's pay-to-win, but please increase that number because it's impossible to level up any heroes.”
    • “My characters are about 10 levels over the enemies and I cannot seem to progress any further in the story or the tower mode.”
  • grinding4 mentions

    The game is criticized for its excessive grinding, with players feeling that progress becomes painfully slow and often requires waiting for rewards, leading to a pay-to-win dynamic. While it may offer initial enjoyment, the grind quickly turns tedious, making it difficult to advance without significant time investment or financial expenditure.

    • “Just another grindy game, probably heavily pay-to-win since you get stuck and have to wait weeks to progress again.”
    • “It was fun for maybe the first few days' worth of content, but soon becomes either extremely grindy or you don't have anything you can do as you are stuck at all levels and need to wait for your AFK rewards for days.”
    • “Everything is overpowered; how do you even beat this? The arena is unbalanced, almost impossible to do anything else than AFK and level up, and even after a week of grinding, you only make one stage of progress.”
