  • monetization
    757 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization strategy of the game has drawn significant criticism from users, primarily due to the prevalence of forced ads that interrupt gameplay. Many players report that while optional ads for rewards are acceptable, the sudden introduction of mandatory ads after a few hours of play is frustrating and detracts from the overall experience. Additionally, complaints about in-app purchases not effectively removing ads further exacerbate the dissatisfaction, leading to a perception of the game as a cash grab.

    • “I would absolutely pay for no ads.”
    • “Great game, no ads, smooth controls.”
    • “Nice game with no ads and is actually high quality... 5/5”
    • “The game is decent until it decides that you started enjoying it so it starts bombarding you with so many frequent long pop-up ads on top of the ones you need to watch for progression.”
    • “The amount of forced ads is insane, jumped on for 30 minutes and sat through 8-10 ads, legitimately one every 3-4 minutes (I timed them), some of the ads lasting 45 seconds before it goes to a second screen for 5 seconds before going to a third screen for a further 10 seconds.”
    • “I was already watching the ads for the benefits, but when they became mandatory, it became unbearable.”
  • gameplay
    89 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay of the game has received mixed reviews, with many players enjoying the mechanics and graphics but expressing frustration over the intrusive energy system and forced advertisements that disrupt the experience. While some find the gameplay engaging and addictive, others describe it as repetitive and tedious, particularly due to the limitations imposed by the energy mechanic and the frequency of ads. Overall, players appreciate the potential of the game but call for improvements in balance and mechanics to enhance playability.

    • “Very addicting and entertaining Minecraft-themed merge game that rewards active gameplay unlike most other merge games.”
    • “Gameplay overall is good.”
    • “First impression of the game: nice, fluent instructions, no constant ad plays, and gameplay I'd happily play for hours!”
    • “Gameplay isn't that fun.”
    • “Gameplay is slow.”
    • “This game used to be so much better without the energy mechanic, now making any progress at all is painstakingly slow, which becomes even worse with the ads almost every time you go into a menu.”
  • story
    49 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is generally well-received, with players appreciating the engaging narrative and artwork that adds personality to the adventure. However, many users express frustration with quest-related bugs, incomplete storylines, and a lack of satisfying conclusions, leading to a feeling of emptiness upon finishing the game. Additionally, there are calls for more content, including additional quests and character options, to enhance the overall experience.

    • “The story is great.”
    • “I love the artwork and story cards so much, adding so much personality to the adventure.”
    • “The game is a fun tap and merge kind of game, and the other aspects such as the building, crafting, and little storyline are pretty cool.”
    • “But maybe add some content to the story cards...and maybe something at the end because it just felt empty once I finished.”
    • “The 'end' of the game is completely unsatisfying, no fanfare, no story, just some more useless gold nuggets.”
    • “A big one is lots of the quests don't unlock.”
  • grinding
    46 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players generally find the grinding aspect of the game to be excessively tedious and frustrating, particularly due to the energy system and the high costs associated with upgrades and items. Many reviews highlight that the game becomes less enjoyable as it progresses, with a significant emphasis on in-app purchases to alleviate the grind, leading to a perception of a pay-to-win model. While some players appreciate the farming mechanics, the overall sentiment leans towards the grinding being a major detractor from the game's fun factor.

    • “The game used to be really fun, but they added a new update that made it so much more grindy and less enjoyable. You get much lower-level blocks and everything is so expensive, combined with the energy system, making the game unplayable.”
    • “Getting emeralds is incredibly tedious, and the premium armor can only be obtained through unhealthy amounts of grinding or spending real money.”
    • “After most of the crafting materials have dropped in the first half of blocks unlocked, it's just a tedious grind to finish the rest.”
  • stability
    36 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is frequently criticized, with many users reporting persistent glitches, freezes, and crashes that hinder gameplay. While some players find the game enjoyable despite these issues, the overall consensus indicates that the frequent technical problems significantly detract from the experience, leading to frustration and potential uninstallation. Improvements in stability are urgently needed to enhance user satisfaction.

    • “Mainly because it isn't buggy (from what I experienced so far), it is fun and interesting.”
    • “I've played it for years, no glitches, nothing. Best game ever! It's simple and calming; I like it—scratch that, I love it.”
    • “It's fun and cool. Eventually, I have fun even though I'm kind of bored of the game, but the game is still a good rate. At least there are no glitches, lagging, or bugs, so this is why I rate it 4/5.”
    • “Freezes up, and the 'app not responding' message pops up so frequently I'm about to uninstall. Seriously, fix these problems, and I'll change the rating.”
    • “I have maxed out all of my gear and unlocked every block, and when I click on mine a block it gives me cake. I closed the game, and now when I start it again, the whole game is glitchy and I can't play it due to having maxed out every value. The mining block is stuck at 10 hits, I have a blank text box above the screen, and there is a single chest in the middle of the screen that I can click and drag around anywhere I want off-screen. I can't play the game anymore until the values are fixed.”
    • “It's a fun game, but when it freezes I lose a bunch of progress. I hope it gets fixed.”
  • graphics
    24 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Decent idle clicker/merger game, village building to unlock and upgrade is a cool idea and the graphics are nice.”

    • “If it had an option to run it on worse graphics so the actual playing would be smoother, it would be heaps better.”
    • “Graphics are so bad and the UI is atrocious.”
  • music

  • optimization
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization has received mixed reviews, with some users experiencing significant lag and issues with saving progress, while others note that it runs smoothly. Overall, there are concerns about its performance, suggesting it may be poorly optimized.

    • “Poor optimization, very laggy.”
  • emotional
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

The experience of unlocking key elements, such as the shroomlight, is overshadowed by a sense of betrayal when the storyline takes an unexpected turn, particularly with the unsettling appearance of Herobrine.
